Bulky Court Calendar.

The calendar for the April term of the
district court has been sent to the printers
and its proportions are astonishing to the
judges. who were of the opinion that they
would have a light term. The calendar con-
tains 500 civil cases exclusive of the appeal
cases. Of those filed, there are less than
leo divorces but over 100 tax cases. which
will throw about ZOO cases to the court for
contested trials. The cases are all unimpor-
tant ones, however, and it is anticipated that
many will be dismissed or stricken from the
calendar through settlement

A VISIT TO SCOTLAND.
laurence Hutt'sns RccoIIcctions Of Ills
First Trip To That Country.

Laurence Hutton's rccollcctions of his
boyhood are in st. Nicholas under the titlo
of "A Boy Knew. His earliest visit TO
Scotland was made when he was but or
3 years of age and long before he had as
sumcd the dignity of trousers or had been
sent To school His father had gone to the
old home at ST. Andrews hurricdly, upon
the receipt of the ncws of the serious i'll
ness of the boys grandmother who died
before they reached her. Naturally the
boy has little recollection of that sad
month of December, spent in his grand
mothers house, except that 1t was sad.
The weather was cold and wet; the house,
even under ordinary circumstances, could
not have been very cheerful one for II
youngstCr who had no companions of his
own age. ; 1t looked out upon the German
ocean-which at that time of the year was
always in u rage, or in the sulks, and the
house was called Peep o. Day, because
it received the very first rays of the sun as
he rose upon the British isles.
The boys chief amusement was the feed
ing of flour scenes and oatcallcs to an
old goat that lived in the neighborhood
and the daily walks with his grandfather,
who seemed to find some little comfort and
entertainment in his grandsons childish
Z
grandchild, and the old man was very
proud of his manner and appearance and
particularly amused at certain gigantic
efforts on the boys part to adapt his own
| short legs to the strides of his senior $
| long ores.
| After they had interviewed the goat, and
had watched the wrecks with which the
! wild shore was strcwn, and had inspected
! the castle in ruins and the ruins of the
cathedral the boy would gaze upon his
| grandmothCr's new made grave, and his
own name in full--a common name in the
| family-upon the family tomb in the old
kirkyard-all of which must have been
very cheering to the boy, although he
could not read it for himself.
And thcn-which was bctter-thCy
would stand hand in hand for time in
front of a candy shop window, in which
was displayed little regiment of lead sol
diers marching in double file toward an
imposing and unconquerable lead fortress
on the heights of barley sugar. OF this
spectacle they never tired, and they used to
discuss how the boy would arrange them
! if they belonged to him, with a sncaking
hope on the boys part that some day they
were to be his very own.
AT the urgent request of the grandfather
the American contingent remained in St.
Andrews until the end of the year, and
the boy still remembers wildly, and he
will never forget, the dismal failure of
"Auld Lang Syne' as sung by the family
with clasped hands as the clock struck and
the new year began. He sat up for the oc-
casion, or rather was walked up for the oc-
casion, and of all that family group he has
been, for decade or more, the only sur
vivor. The mother of the house was but
lately dead, the eldest son and his son were
| going the next day to the other side of the
world, and every voice broke before the
| familiar verse came to an end.

The Indian Way of Driving.

Commenting on the attempt made by
the government in 1867 to civiliZe the
prairie Indians by supplying them with
the garb and food of the white man, Colo
mel Bob Dodge of Dodge City says: "The
authorities sent the Indians thousands of
sacks of flour, pantaloons in abundance
and a big lot of stiff trimmed hats bound
around the edge with tin or German silver
to hold the rim in shape. They also sent
them few light running ambulances.
The savages, to show their appreciation of
these magnanimous gifts from the. great
father, threw the flour on the prairie in
order to get the sacks for breechclouts.
They cut out the seats of the pantaloons,
and they cut the crown off the hats and
used them as playthings, shying them in
the air, like white boy does fiat stone,
to see them sail away.
"The ambulances they were proud of.
The government neglected 20 send any
harness with Them SO the Indians manu-
featured their own. They did not under
stand anything about lines, and instead
they drove with n quirt, or short whip.
When the near horse would go too much
gee, they whipped up the off horse, and
when he would go too much 'haw' they
pounded away at the near horse again,
and so vice versa all the time. This unique
manner of driving kept the poor animals
in dead run most of the time.
II remember taking ride with Little
Raven, chief of the Arapahoes At first we
started off gently, but his ponies did not GO
straight, so he kept tapping them, now the
off horse, then the near, until finally he
got them on rapid gallop, and thought
at one time my head would surely pop W
through the roof of the ambulance. The
country was very level, fortunately, or
don't know what would have been the out

RELIEF.

The Cabinet Discuss the Question of Suffer
ing klOndikers-WHys And Means of
Sending Relief -Nothing Can be Done
Until Congress Meets, When an Appro-
priation Will be Asked for the PURPOSE
of Transporting Supplies.
WASHINGTON. Dec. 1.-The cabinet
considered the subject of sending re-
lief to the people in the Klondike.
President Mckinley received a tele-
gram from the Portland (0re.) cham
Der of ommerce. stating that there
was danger of restitution and suffer
ing on the klondike, and offering to
supply the necessary food for relief if
the government would undertake its
transportation.
The information was not definite as
to the actual conditions, but were on
the same line that has been tele-
graped from the northwest. The cab
met considered every phase of the situ-
alton and discussed ways and means of
atfording relies.
1t was decided that nothing could be
done until congress met, when an APP
pose of transporting food supplies.
Although many plans have been dis
cussed, none has been decided upon.
1t is probable, however, that whatever
action is taken will be under the di-
rection of the war department, and by
the time congress acts Secretary
Alger will have formulated plans. No
attempt will be made to go up
the Yukon, as the ice has closed prog
rnCS in that lI-n- M, .-.
plies will have to be sent over the
passes. Just how they shall be trans
ported is n question requiring earnest
consideration, and one that will re-
quire the study of many plans in order
hal an entirely feasible n may be
evolved. Secretary Alger will gath
er all possible information, and
will communicate with per-
IONS who know the route
to the Klondike and are familiar with
the transportation methods in the Arc.
tic and other frozen regions. Reindeer
and dogs, possibly, may be used, and
there is also a suggestion that the
steam snow shovel which has been
successfully used in the deep snow of
the logging camps, may be utilized.
Secretary Alger has confidence in it as
Il means of transportation.
The members of the cabinet were all
intensely interested in the matter of
securing relief. Whether the men who
are supposed to be suffering went there
or not against the repeated warnings
of all officials is beyond the question,
the simple fact beinr that they are
there and need relief, making it i'm
perative upon the government to ex-
tend aid If possible.

What an Exhaustive and Scientific Study
of The Subject DiscIoses.
NEW YORK, Nov. 3O.-A report that
is probably the only one of the kind
made in this country was completed
to-day by the committee on statistics
of the charity organization society.
The committee is composed of Rich
mOnd Mayo Smith, professor of politi-
cal economy and social science at
Columbia university; Franklin Ii. Gid
dings, professor of sociology at Column
bia university and Frederic w. Halls.
The report consists of a careful an
alysis of the records of 500 families
from the time they applied for aid in
1890 until September 1, of this year..
In referring to the repetition of ap-
plications for relief the report says:
There is a disclosure of chronic
pauperism. This pauperism exists to a
large degree because of the incapacity
of men and women to support them
selves. Their condition il due, inves-
tigation shows, to lack of moral de-
~velopment.
''Of the persons who appealed for aid
the largest number were married men
and Widows and children
anne next. OF the 800 applicants 17O
were Irish and l52 were natives of the
United States. Many of the latter
were persons who had lived in this
city less than a year"
The list includes l22 men of good
character and 81 women of good char
acter. The remainder were profes.

80 Says Indian Agent Wisdom In His Re.
Port-A Sound Public Policy Demands
It-Any Measure That Temporixes with
the Intruder on Indian Lands, or Post.
pones His Removal, is FaIlacious and
Misleading.
WASHINGTON. Nov. 3O.-A remarkable
and vigorous report has been made / O
the interior department by agent Dew
NJ. Wisdom, in charge of the Indian
agency in Oklahoma where the five
civilized tribes are located. In this
Mr.. Wisdom Y
The intruders must 60. The ir-
truders have made the Indians doubt
the good faith of the government, and
made it more difficult &c treat on the
more important issues of allotment and
the breaking up of tribal autonomy in
the nation to which the individual
Indian belongs. A sound public policy
demands the eviction of all declared n-
truders, and any measure of eXpedi-
ency on the part of the department
hat temporizes with the intruder or
postpones his removal on mere techni-
c~alities is fallacious and misleading.
Let all the treaties be enforced and all
the safeguards secured to the Indians
be upheld in letter and in spirit, and
then the Indians will make liberal con-
ceSSions, and accept without murmur-
ing the changed condition which con-
fronts them"
The report deals with a number of
important Indian developments. II
says the clamor for a change in tribal
autonomy has produced Indian unrest
and disquietude, resulting in a deter
mined purpose on the part of many of
the full-bloods, who will act in their
individual capacity, to emigrate to
either Mexico or South America, and
there purchase new homes for them
selves and families. This movement,
the report says, may grow to the
proportions of a colony, and it is I'M
derstood that liberal grants of land
can be secured from the countries men
toned.
This movement may settle the In
dian problem to a degree, and thus
happily relieve the Dawes commission,
congress and others who have combat
ted with the question for years. The
movement may be chimecical or vision
airy, but l am disposed to present it Sc
riously."
The report takes Il roseate view of
the possibilities of success Of the Dawes
commission negotiations.
