CHASKA is NOT DEAD.

Chamberlain, S. ~, June 6.@Samuel
Campbell, better known as Chaska,
the Indian husband of Cora Belle Eel
lows, who was short time ago re-
ported by Running Water, S. D., dis
patches as having made successful
attempt at suicide, is alive and we'll,
his attempt at ending his life having
proved a failure. He was recently
sentenced to one years Imprisonment
for completely with a gang of thieves.
Before being taken to Jail he con-
fessed and gave evidence against the
band. According to his story, the
gang found ready market for stolen
goods among the residents of both the
Nebraska and South Dakota sides of
the Missouri river in the vicinity of
its operations.

founded on melody. The very pleas
ing solo for first horn was badly
marred by the accompaniment.
1.-THE difference is so great between
the heavy brass section and the insig-
nificant reed section that II would i'm
prove the band wonderfully to have the
reed play brass, particularly as one of
the performers is a good cornetist, and
this is what the band lacks, as the di-
rector has to conduct and play at the
same time, and it is quite difficult
matter. The Chilean Dance was
played in too strict tempo, and the fine
effect was lost by adhering strictly
to the tempo. There were no cres-
condos Or diminuendoes. 10 ritards or
accelerandos."

I deem IL my duty to call to the at
tention of congress-. the condition Of
the present building occupied by the
department of justice. The business 81
that department has increased greatly
since IL was established in Its present
quarters. The building now occupied by
IL Is neither large enough nor of suit
able arrangement for the proper ac-
commodation of the department. The
supervising architect has pronounced
IL unsafe and unsuitable for the use
to which Il Is put. The attorney gen
eral. in his report states that the IL
brary OF the department is on the
fourth floor and that all the space al
lotted to IL Is SO crowded with books as
tn overload dangerously the structure.
The first floor is occupied by the court
of claims. The building Is Of an old
and dilapidated appearance. %unsuited
TO the dignity which should attach O.
this department.
Proper regard for the safety. COM
fort and convenience of the officers and
employees would Justify the expenditure
OF n liberal sum in the erection Of a
building Of commodious proportions
and handsome appearance upon the
very site already selected for that pur-
pose. including n ground occupied by
the present structure. and vacant
ground adioininG 20 that. comprising In

of making provision for the erection q

Is called to that part of the report OF
the secretary Of the interior in relation
TO ms FIVE civilized tribes. Ii Is note
worthy that the general condition OF
the Indians shows marked progress
But one outbreak of a serious charac-
ter occurred during the year and that
was among the Chippewa Indians Of
Minnesota, which happily has been sup
pressed.
While IL has not yet been practicable
to enforce all the provisions OF the act
of June 2S, 1898. "for the protection OF
h people OF the Indian territory and
for other purposes" IL is having a sal
utary effect on the nations composing
the Fiv Tribes. The Dawes commits
sion reports that the most gratifying
results and greater advance toward. the
attainment of the objects of the gov
have been secured in the past
year than in previous years. i cannot
too strongly indorse the recommended
ton of the commission and of the sec
rotary Of the interior for the necessity
of providing for the education of 3d.
900 white oh, ldre residents in the In
dian territory.
Agriculture.
The department of agriculture has
been active in the past year.. Explorers
have been sent to many of the coun-
tries OF the Eastern inc Western hem
ispheres for seeds and plants that may
be useful to the United States and with
the further view of opening up markets
for u surplus products. The forestry
division of the department is giving
special attention to the treeless regions
of our country and Is introducing spe-
cies especially adapted to semi-arid re-
gions. Forest fires. which seriously in
terfere with production, especially in
irrigated regions, are being studied. that
the losses from this cause may be avoid
ed. The department Is inquiring into
the use and abuse of water in many or
the states of the West and collecting
information regarding the laws or
states, the decisions of courts and the
customs of the people in this regard, SO
that uniformity nay be secured.
Experiment stations are becoming
more effective every year. The annual
appropriation of $3.50, 900 by congress is
supplemented by $500. 900 from the
states. Nationwide experiments have
been conducted to ascertain the suit
ableness to soil and climate and states
for growing beets. The number OF
sugar factories has been doubled in the
past two years and the ability or the
United States to produce It's own sugar
from this source has been clearly dem
onstrated.
The weather bureau, forecast and OBJ
~seryation stations have been extended
around the Caribbean sea, to give early
warning of the approach of hurricanes
from the south seas to our fleets ana
merchant marines.

Concluding Recommendations.

The alien contract law is shown by
experience to need some amendment: a
measure providing better protection for
seamen is proposed; the rightful appl-
cation of the eight-hour law for the
benefit of labor and the principle or
arbitration are suggested for dis
cussion. and / commend these subjects
TO the careful consideration of the con-
gress.
The several departmental reports will
be laid before you. They give In great
detail the conduct of the affairs or the
government during the past year ana
discuss many questions upon which the
congress may be called upon to act.

Anniversaries.

In the year 1900 will occur the CEN
tennial anniversary of the founding or
the city of Washington as capital by
authority of congress-, approved July 10,
1890. In May, 1900, the rchive ana
general offices of the federal govern
ment were removed to this place. On
the 18th Of November, 1900, the ma
tional congress met here for the first
time and assumed exclusive control or
the feSeral district n city. Thls IN
teresting event assumes all the more
significance when we recall the circum-
stances attending the choosing OF the
site, the naming OF the capital in honor
of the father of his country and the in
terest taken by him in the adoption OF
plans for its future development on a
magnificent scale.
These original plans have been
wrought out with a constant prog
ress and a signal success even beyond
anything their trainers had foreseen.
The people of the country are justly
proud of the distinctive beauty ana
government of the capital and the rare
instruments of science and education
which here find their natural home.
A movement lately inaugurated by
the citizens to ave the anniversary
celebrated with fitting ceremonies, IN
Guiding, perhaps, the establishment OF
a handsome permanent memorial, 10
mark so historic an occasion ana 10
give il more than local recognition, has
met with general favor on the part oil
the public.
l recommend to the congress the
granting Of an appropriation for the
purpose and appointment of a commit.
tee from it's respective bodies. IL mlSh'
also be advisable to authorize the presi'
dent to appoint a m from the
country at large, which, acting Win the
| congressional and District Of Columbia
committee, can complete the plans foi
an appropriate national celebration.

yellow Fever.

In my last annual message I recon-
mende that the ongress authorize the
appointment Of n committee for the
purpose Of making systematic investi-
cations with reference to the cause and
prevention Of yellow fever. This mat
ter has acquired an increased import
ance as the result of the military occu-
patton Of the island OF Cuba. and the
commercial intercourse between this is
land and the United States. which we
have every reason to expect. The san
itary problems connected with our re-
lations with the Island of cuba and
the ACQUISITION OF Porto Rico are no less
important han those relating TO fin
ance. commerce and administration. II
Is my earnest desire that these pro-
blems may be considered by compe-
tent experts. and that everything may
he lone which the most recent advances
I'm sanitary science car offer for the
protection Of the health Of u soldiers
in those islands. and OF our citizens
who are exposed to the dangers ~ in
lection from the importation Of yellow
fever. ! therefore renew my recommen-
dation that the authority " congress
may be given and n suitable appro-
priation made tn provide for a COM
mittee Of experts to be appointed for
the purpose indicated.

he knew what was coming next.

Think well, monsieur, before you
