In case OF war with Spain, the man
who would practically have the man
agement of the Wisconsin troops dur
ing their mobilization and departure
for the seabOard is Gen. Charles R.
Boardman, adjutant general of the
state. Now that the war cloud is still
hanging over us, public attention cen
tiers upon this official, and it is well
to know that if the emergency comes
he is one to be depended upon
Charles Ruggles Boardman was born
in Fond du Lac in 1860, and was edu-
Gated at the University Of Wisconsin
where he graduated in 1884. 1t was at
the university and under the tutelage
of Capt. Charles King, the well known
author, that the future adjutant gen.
eral received his instructions in mill
tary knowledge During his college
rays he was captain of one Of the uni
versity companies. Going to Oshkosh
the year of his graduation, he became
city editor of the Northwestern and
retained his connection with that pa
per in different capacities until ap-
pointed to his present position by Gen.
Scofeld in January, 1897. Soon after
going to Oshkosh he was elected cap
tain of Co. B, second regiment, Wis
consfn national guard, and has been
actively connected with the regiment
ever since, having served as major for
the last six years. He is a man of
excellent business habits, good judg-
ment and thorough military training.
His family includes his wife and one
child.

ab|ed to vary its literary pro-
grammc win music. This brought
into the club many of the pianists
and vocalist in Dcnison, who are
givcn their option in literary or
musical numbers Oh the pro-
gramme, and has added so much
to the va lie of the club that many
of those mujicully uncu'tured
are fast beginning to realize
difference between Wagner and
Strauss
Through the liberllity and
public spirit of Mr.J.T. Munson,
the ladies of the XXI club, most
generously aided by citizens of
Denisol, have had their dreams
rellizeG, and are now the happy
pcs essors of an elegant, two
story brick club building of mod
ern architecture and equipment
the onl.i woman $ building be-
lieveI to be in state. The lower
floor is Il largo auditorium, from
who the club obtains Il revenue
by renting for lectures and public
and priyat entertainments. The
upper floor contains the club
rsoms and the library.
Chiefly through the kindness of
friends who have presented many
beautiful things to the club, the
club room is prettily and artist
cally furnished.
Through generosity of the same
public spirited-g ntlemen who
kindly donated so much each year
providing a like sum could be
raised among the friends. outside
the club, together with the as
sessm ent fee of each member,
there was II sum Of $3.50 per year
for the purchase of books. This
rapidly increased the library until
at present it numbers about 1000
volumes.

WORK OF Dawes Commission.

Hon. Tams BiXby, one of the
members of the Dawes commiss-
ion, is Il newspaper man. He
therefore knows thata-newspaper
man appreciates an opportunity
to get facts in regard to any mat
ter of general interest to the pub
lie.
Asked about the item sent out
from Wichita, Kan, in regard
to the enrolment of the Indians
by the commission and the state
ment made in the report that 20,
000 "squaw men had been dis
possessed in the Indian Territory,
and that their 10000 children
were also to be sumlnarily elected
by an armed force, Mr.. Bixby
laughed good humorodIy.
THAT item,' said he, "origi-
mated in the fertile brain of a cor
respondent at Wichita. There is
absolutely no truth in it. 1t
seems to have travelled over the
east. however, and the depart
ment at Washington seeing it.,
telegraphed us to know on what
such Il statement could have been
ba ed, only the widest stretch of
fancy or the imagination. The
report calls intermalr ed citizens
of the Indian Territory 'squaw
men. There is no such person
existing rs squuw man. The
white men who have married In
dams are intcrmarr citizens,
and if one of them has been dis
possessed where he was genuinely
married to an Indian woman, OF
Il woman entitled to citizenship,
was enrolled by our commission
only in few isolated cases, where
citizenship was denied by the
Indian comm ssloners, these
were not refused enrolment, but
they were rot enrolled at the
time and a day was set for the
hearing of the evidence in sucl
cases. We have the day set il
/, November, wheG we will meet il
: Ardmore to hear such evidence
and further than that we hav,
summoned the witnesses required
by the claimants and will hear al
1 the evidence, and if the claim
: ants are entitled to citizenship
: that is, if they can prove thci
. claim to citizenship, they will b
: enrolled There are very fey
Shiner gazette. [volume] (Shiner, Tex.) 1893-current, 1898-10-19

cases of this sort, however, fox
all who have no claim have
dropped their cases, and there
are very few who have resided in
the Chickasaw nation who have
not bean enrolled. Where they
were rejected twas on complaint
urged by the Chickcsaw commits
sioners, who have been with us.
"All this talk about the Chick
asaws and Choctaws being in
trouble because soma, thinking
theselves Chickasaws, have been
enrolled us Choctaws, and vice
versa, is all bosh. The treaties
of the Chickasaws and Choctaws
make the special provision that a
Chickasaw may take his allot-
ment in the Chowtaw or Chicka-
saw nation, and vice versa. For
instance, if citizen of the Chick
asaw nation who believes himself
to be Il Chickasuw is enrolled aS
Il Chowtaw, or vice versa, under
the law he does not have to quit
his claim and improvements in
the Chickasaw nation, but he can
take his allotmeat there the same
as if he had been enrolled
Chickasaw citizen; that is Il treaty
provision.
"The fact that all citizenship is
traced by the mother is not Il
Dawes commission ruling, but is
an Indian law, which we had to
adopt. That was the way they
had determined citizenship for
many years, and we adopted it.
There is another thing, where one
man has now under his control
more land than he is entitled to,
he can sell the Improvements to
the allottee. A citizen who will
buy the improvements and settle
ON the Ian has the best claims to
those lands for allotment
"It has been charged. too, that
the Dawes commission has re-
fused to enroll citizens who are
not on the 1896 roll. That is I'M
true. We have found some such
cases and have gone back to the
original rolls and enrolled the
citizens.

regular dues and assessments.

who has removed permanently
from the city, thereby losing her
membership. She is entitled, upon
visiting the city, to all the privil-
eyes of the club, is exempt from
