A PROPER WALK.
Every Woman Should Know How to
Move Gracefully.

Move Gracefully.
Do you know how to walk? OF course
you can get along at any gait that suits
your fancy, but can you glide, or stalk
or float according to the laws of grace?
The chances are you have never stopped
to consider what a picture you make of
yourself with your long strides. your
quick, jerky steps or your languid
dawdling when you are almost too lazy
or tired to move. III you take the advice
of a writer In the New York Herald you
will straightway proceed to learn to
walk in the way you should go.
Study your walk, girls. Take dancing
lessons TO begin with and then repeat
your lessons before your long toilet ass
pretty walk is beauty i'm itself, and
every one who will can acquire this beau
ty. Do 1t, then, at once-now-withou
losing another day.
Spanish women have very pretty
walk. naturally. as also have Italian
country girls and all accustomed To car
ry weights on their heads
To exercise walking a weight on the
mead Is very good lesson. You must not
be content, however, to walk straight
before you without letting the weight
faI from your head. You must turn
backward and forward and from side To
side, as Italian country girls do when
they carry water jars from the well and
Tan turH III Ill directions without drop
or water being spilled from the jar on
their head More marriages are made up
at the well IN Italy than at any other
public place. Young rustic fellows stand
by the well to watch the girls fill their
Jars and carry them away on their heads
Win grace given only to them; and
the most graceful among them has the
most admirers from whom to choose her
husband
The French are also very graceful
walkers

(From the New York SUM-

(From the New York Sum-
Along with territory and a few other
things at what has been called the cross
roads of the Pacific. the United States
have annexed a new language and a
somewhat considerable literature owned
by the $1,000 people left as the remnant of
their race. The Hawaiian is not a diff
cult or Grabbed speech. 1t is soft and
musical most of the white people now
! in Hawaii speak il more or less fully.
and 1t offers no great difficulty to the
others who may be expected to I'LL up
the new domain.
Its most prominent characteristic is the
great of voweIs Besides the five
vowels il needs only seven consonants to
make up the alphabet, and the one hard
| and fast rule of the grammar is that two
consonants shall never come together and
that no word or syllable shall end with
other than q vowel. On the other hand,
vowelS may string along i'll Indefinite sue
cesSion- The speech aboundS with whole
words which have not a single conson-
ant to hold them together Two vowels
stand side by side in a majority of words.
! The opportunity TO triplicate. the vowel
has not been neglected; a word has been
formed of every such combination. Thus
"aaa' means friendly. ''eee'' is the verb
| to rise up, iii is little. 900" means TO
shrink and ''uuu means TO stammer
Four vowels together form many words
as ''aaua," a crone or hag with wrinkles
under the eyes. Some few words consist
of as many as five vowels one after the
other, such as ''iiaao. which is the name
| for poi when it is hard and musty, or
| "oiaio." the word meaning true.
! The language is highly developed in
grammar and rhetoric, developed by the
savage Hawaiians up to the limits of
their needs and containing the elements
of a still further development. The proof
of that may be found in the books which
have been translated into Hawaiian. The
Holy Scriptures in Hawaiian show this
Despite the fact that the history and the
doctrine therein contained were absolute
ly beyond the line of island experience il
has been found possible to express them
perfectly in the native tongue with only
a few more words adapted from foreign
sources; in fact, there are fewer than
per cent of naturalized words in the
Hawaiian.
1t has its widespread linguistic affini-
ties. The Polynesian tongue of which it
is one member is spoken over wide ex-
tent of the Pacific. as far south as New
Zealand as far east as TIE Pita te When
ua or Rapa-nui. which is better known as
the Easter Island of the colossal cary
ngs. When Cook traversed those seas he
carried Tahitian. who was everywhere
a competent interpreter. One language of
the Polynesian stem is as like another as
are English, Dutch and German There
are Malay affinities; there are stems
which may be traced in the remoteness
of Madagascar. At least one great ef-
fort has been made to prove the Polynes-
ians to be an early offshoot of the Aryan
race and therefore blood brothers to the
Germanic stock.

THE DAWES COMMISSION.
Enrolling the C0Iored Men in the
Greek and ChickmsavF Nations

(Muskegon Dispatch St Louis Globe Democrar.)
The members of the Dawes Commission
who have been busiIy engaged for the
past month in enrolling the freedmen of
the Creek Nation, have about completed
taeir labors. and viii proceed in about a
week 10 the ChickasIw Nation. where
they will make rolls of the members and
freedmen of that tribe. The completion
of the roll of Creek freedmen will settle
forever the right of negro claimants
10 participate in the distribution
of the lands and moneys of that nation,
as the roll which is now being completed
is intended 10 be the final roll of the
Creek freedmen. All negroes who claim
ed enrolment as Creek freedmen have
been required by the commission TO show
that either the claimants or their anceS-
tors were on the Dunn roll of 1861. which
was the first roll made of the Creek
freedmen and contained 1.74 names. The
present freedmen roll will contain be-
tween 1000 and 500 names and will mean
that about one-third of the lands and
moneys of the Creek Indians are TO be
given to those negroes who were either
slaves of Creek Indians. descendants of
such slaves or residents of the Creek Ma
ton at the close of the Civil War.
When the Civil War closed it became
necessary for the Indians Of the five civil
lied tribes of the Indian Territory TO
make new treaties with the United
S, ,ates, because they had abrogated all
former treaties by joining the Confedera-
cy and this Notwithstanding the fact
that many of the members of the five
tribes did gallant service IN the Union
army. The new treaties were made in
1866 and each tribe was compelled TO give
to the former slaves of the members of
the tribes a share of the lands and mon
eys of the tribe, and the Creeks were re-
quired to make additional concessions. as
the second article of their treaty, made
in 1866. provides that. inasmuch as there
are among the Creeks many persons OF
African descent who have no interest in
the soil. it is stipulated that hereafter
those persons lawfully residing in said
Creek. country under their laws and US
ages. or who nave been thus residing in
said country and may return within one
year from the ratification of the treaty

of the same race as may be permitted by
the laws of said nation to settle within

Nation, as citizens thereof shall have and
