II the European powers possess
among them such a thing as a con-
science It must annoy them greatly
for the part they have played in giving
aid and comfort TO the Moslems against
the Christian Greeks. Their action con-
stitutes dark blot on European Chris
tianity and civilization, showing that
among the rulers of Europe financial
and political matters take precedence
OF religion. right and morality. IN
deed. these Christian powers barely
escaped being called upon TO acquiesce
by their silence and inaction. in the
wholesale murder Of the Greeks within
the borders Of Turkey; for it was re-
ported that the Sultan had actually
ordered such a general massacre, which,
by the way. would be nothing unusual
for him to do.
Colonel A. LOuden Snowden, ex-Min-
lister 10 Greece. recently delivered an ad-
dress to the Pennsylvania Legislature
in which he depicted the horrors of
Turkish misrIle over the Christian
provinces of the empire. II is unneces-
sarv to quote more than the actual
statistics of the slaughters and outrageS
perpetrated upon the Armenians within
one year. The figures were carefully
gathered by Doctor Lipseus, Of Berlin,
who was prejudiced in favor Of the
Turks. but who vouches for the accur-
scy Of the results of his investigation.
The facts as he found them were as fol-
lows:
Armenian Christians massacred ..... Soe9

rnr1NnIAN TREATY

The signing of the treaty with the
representatives of the Choctaws and
Chicasaws is another long step toward
the final settlement of the Indian Ter
ritory problem.
1t is difficult to see wherein objection
can be found to the instrument per-
fected by the Dawes Commission and
the Indian representatives on the part
of the most extreme defenders of the
Indians rights. Provision is made for
the fair allotment, according to APP
praised value, of land and town lots
Ont of his total allotment each Indian
receives 100 acres which are inalienable
for 81 years. The remainder of each
allotment is salable, part in one year
and part in three years. The mining
resources are to be worked on royalties
Under these conditions the Indians
are guarded against prodigality and
poverty for q years, but part of the
lands are free for settlers who may
obtain titles by purchase. Each Indian
will share in the benefits of the public
lands and the mining resources, instead
of their benefits being monopolized by
the rich and powerful members of the
tribes. Meanwhile the tribes will grad
ually be prepared for full citizenship
and freedom in the disposal of property
under the laws of the country.
But while the rights and interest of
the Indians are well guarded the treaty
accomplishes a most important object
for the entire Southwest and indirectly
for the whole country. 1t starts the Ter
ritory on the road up to the social and
political status of the Union and assures
the end of the conditions which have
made the Territory an obstacle to the
developmtnt of the Southwest.
The Japs are getting unduly excited
over Hawaii. They shouldn't. They
should husband all their gray matter
for use in perfecting those cunning in
ventions that are to give Japan con-
troll of the worlds markets, and leave
severely alone little far away islands
with which they have no business in
triguing. And in the meantime, Uncle
Sam will send his whole navy to
Hawaii. if he sees fit, without asking
leave of the Japs or anybody else.

private Life of a. Noted Designer of

Every one has heard the name Of Kate
Greenaway, the talented English artist, who
has done more to reyolutionize children's
dress than any other living woman. No
woman is better known In England and In
America than She and yet no woman's per-
sonal life and habits are less known and
talked of than hers, The reason of this lies
in the fact that she regards her private life
as something sacred to herself and her
friends. and has never allowed any one to
interview her. and refrans from accepting
attentions and entertainments that would
bring her into conspicuous position She
lives, however In an old and picturesque
house In the neighborhood OF Hampstead
Heath, and has her studio there on the top
Moor, large, well lighted and coy room.
Its long windows open out into a balcony
where Miss Greenaway loves to sit on pleas

her hard work, originality and love for chill

Our American women have of late years
become expert in almost every art and pro-
fession, but 1t is for London. to claim the
most celebrated woman photographer in the
world, Miss Alice Hughes, the daughter OF
Edwin Hughes. the famous portrait painter.
She not only rivals all women in her pro-
fession. but there are very few men who can
compete with her. She charges higher for
her work than any other photographer in
London, and yet she can scarcely attend to
the orders that pour in upon her. Her pat
