The Eastern Cherokees,

In a decision by the United
States court of appeals in the Wes-
tern district of North Carolina,
says the New York Sun, it has
been virtually declared that the
eastern band of Cherokee Indians
are not citizens of the United
States. Some of these Indians
have been voting for fifty years.
They have more than once held
the balance of power between the
two political parties in Western
North Carolina. The chief ques-
ton involved is the right of the
eastern band Of Cherokee Indians
to sell the timber from land for
which it holds deed.
The decision of the court is that
the band has no right to make any
contract whatever without the
sanction of the United States gov
eminent. The court says the cas-
tern band did not become citizens
by virtue of the treaty of New
Echota in 1885. 1t is remarkable
that the court in its decision ig-
nored the case upon which the de-
PENDANTS mainly relied, that of the
case OF the eastern band of Cher
okee Indians against the western
band, decided by the supreme
court of the United States, III U.
S. Rep, wherein Justice Field
held that the members of the cas-
tern band were citizens.-Tulsa

Items From IT. Gibson Post.

John Starnes, a well known
farmer living east of Fort Gibson,
has made what is termed an
archaeological discovery. During
the late heavy rains a washout of
a small stream on his farm laid
bare five human skulls, some Pc
culiar brass uniform buttons and a
coin dated 1741. Neither the coin
nor the buttons were American

The logs are still intact and about
ten to fifteen feet under the ground.

woman was found by digging into

It takes from 2,0o0 to 2.5oo bees to weigh pound Colonies average from eight to ten pounds.
 Arizona bees build their own queen cell and raise their own queens.
 To keep bees from swarming the Arizona custom is to cut out queen cells every eight or ten days.
 New colonies are formed by remov- ing comb with young bees.
 The life of queen is about five years-the life Of workers is about ninety days. The life Of drones is less

THE HOUsEKEEPER SHOULD

Always rub little soft (not melted) butter over the top of bread dough when in a mass, after being molded in- to loaves. This prevents hard crust.
 Always make starch with soapy wa ter, which will give a better gloss to the linen and prevent the irons from sticking.
 Always open canned fruit or vege- tables an hour or two before they are needed, that the flavor may be imprcv- ed. And always empty the contents of a tin can into a glass or china dish as soon as it is opened.
 Always keep steel ornaments in powdered starch to prevent their rust ing.
 Always invert the wash tubs and put a little water on the bottom Of them so they will not dry out and leak be- fore the following wash day. Always see that the shoes are prop erly cared for when taken off at night; straighten and smooth out the Wrin- kles, draw down the instep and pull up from the heel.
 Never paper wall that is inclined  to be damp, without first making it impervious to moisture; which may be done by applying varnish of one part shellac to two of naptha. The dis agreeable odor will soon disappear, and, after papering, there will be no more trouble from moisture stains. Never read, nor sew, nor write i'm mediately after coming from compara- tive darkness into bright light, if you have good eyes and would keep them good.
 Never add salt to new milk used for gravies, stews, etc., until just before serving, if you would avoid curdline l the milk.

NUGGETS FROM THE HILLS.

Captain Thomas Burns, the well known mining man, returned Monday to Wilcox from trip to Pearce, Fort on another expedition.
 Prof E. H. Cook of the United Globe copper mines was in Tucson the other day MT. Cook is one of the most suc- cessful mining men in the country and an exceedingly pleasant man besides.
 A whim was sent out from Prescott to the Monte Cristo mine the other day and a hoisting cage to the Empire mine.
 A few thousand pounds of copper matte lie on the depot platform at Wilcox, being the product of the last run at the Middlemarch mine.
 A man in Tucson thought he had struck something big in the way of an ore shipping proposition. From the samples shown him he was sure he had good thing. He knew one when he saw it and never questioned the identity of the latest discovery The mine is about fifty miles from Tucson and several trips were made to it for the purpose of sampling the ore. On the third trip, however, another very important discovery was made. It was that the mine was patented and could not be touched with a ten-foot pole in price. All engagements for ore teams have been cancelled.
 MT. Worthen of Gardiner, Worthen & Goss was at the Star office yesterday with load. The load was in the form of two gold bricks, not of the fake class, for they registered $6,000. Some days ago the Star mentioned the sue cessful operation of a cyanide plant put in on the King of Arizona property, Yuma county, by the firm above named and for the King of Arizona Gold Min ing company, Colonel Epes Randolph president The blocks of gold were mute but convincing proofs of the work done by eight men in fifteen days at the plant, McArthur-Forest patent. The Star takes great pleasure in rec cgnizing the favorable results. Ninety days work on tailings is ahead and we may expect to see more bars from the King of Arizona mine from time to time.-Tucson Star.
 In respect to the production of indi- vidual mines in the United States it is of interest to note that the United Verde of Arizona is fourth on the list, and the Copper Queen fifth on the list. These two splendid Arizona propertiss s are only surpassed in production by the

Anaconda in Montana, the Boston and Montana, and the Calumet and Hecla of Michigan.
 There is considerable prospecting go- ing on in the vicinity of Gold guich and some fair speciments have been brought into Bisbee during the past few days from that locality.
 Dan Cleary, the we'll known miner, is spending few weeks taking in the sights of California.
 Prof. G. A. TreadweH has secured a bond on the Cliff mine and six other adjoining claims near Jerome. He will commence work at once developing the property. There is some excellent out croppings on some of the claims and so far as they have been developed they show up well. Prof. Treadwell has great confidence in them and will develop as rapidly as possible.
 J. Arthur, the assayer for the Mon tezuma mining company in the Hua- chuca mountains was in Bisbee the other day. He reports the company pushing development work and that they have quite an amount of good ore on the dumps.
 One of the next necessary efforts in changed federal mine legislation is re- duction of expense in patenting a min ing claim.-Prospector.

We hope it is not true; but we have heard it reported and have even been told by one in position to know, that the smelter will not be built. In vague way we have been led to believe that the mine has been abandoned; that the store is to be put into the hands of a manager and so on through the category of possibilities. All of which is to be regretted of true; if not true, the sooner the facts of the case are made known the better for all concerned.-Arizonian

EXPLOSIVE GAssEs IN MINES.
A French Instrument for Measuring g
 the Amount Present.

At the present time much attention is being given in the various mining districts on the continent to the sub ject of fre-damp and the best meth ods of preventing explosions in collieries where the production of dangerous gases is a possibility. In many of the districts careful records are kept of the relation of the production of gas to the variations in barometric pres sure, in order that the fall in the pres sure of the atmosphere may be used as warning of possible danger, and in nearly every case care has been taken to investigate the liability of the mining explosives to ignite the mine gases. We have also noted at length +he experiments of Heise and Thiem '.ron the conditions under which cleo cric apparatus in mines may be a source of ignition of explosive gases, and, on the whole, this important sub iect is being very thoroughly investi- gated.

BEES, BIRDS AND FRUIT.

The old complaint against bees by fruitmen is again cropping up. The Orange Herald recently said:
 "A general complaint is being made throughout the county of the ravages of honey bees on fruit. It is barely possible that bees may have to be re- moved to the hills before many years, as so much of the valley is now pro. ducing fruit.'
 It has been shown over and over again that bees only harm fruit which has been punctured by some other in sect, or by birds. Apart from this, the only damage that could be done would be to drying fruits.
 As to birds, an investigation recently made of the oriole, which is considered by fruit growers to be one of the most damaging birds of this section, showed that not more than 16 per cent of the food consumed by it, while in this sec tion, consisted of vegetable matter, the bird living mainly cn insects.
