Some credence is given the report that
the story of the execution of Walla Touka,
or Goings, the Indian charged with murder
in Oklahoma, was all a fake. The story
was to the effect that Guings was paloled
the day before his execution Ill order to
pay game of ball. He turned up at the
appointed time the next day and was shot,
but the Workmanship Of the executioner
was so bad that he had to be shot twice
before being killed If the story was a
fake, the party who practiced such an i'm
position upon sympathetic public ought
to be exposed and held up to ridicule.

The fight on Commissioner of Pensions
Fl. Clay Evans. so vigorously conducted
by several pension sharks and certain
members of the Grand Army. promises 20
succeed In being an entire failure. Com
missioner Evans has made a remarkable
record for an official under a Republican
administration, and Democrats generally
have not hesitated to commend it. During
the fiscal year ending June 30, 1899, the
pension roll was decreased by 2.19J names,
and nearly 100000 of the amount appro-
priated for pensions has been turned back
into the public treasury. Commissioner
Evans has begun a good work, and the
wedding out process might easily continue
without detriment to those who are really
entitled to pensions from the public
bounty.

tons for the control of the entry of reser-
votr sites on the public lands will soon Be
issued by the interior department. the
secretary Of the interior has been coneider-
ing the necessity OF additions to the rexu-
lations formerly issued under the act Of
January la 1885, relating to reservoirs for
live stock. The law and the regulations
issued under 1t have been greatly abused
by repeated locations OF those who seek
70 nonopoiizs the public lands to the az
clusion OF those who want to locate homes.
In one instance in Kansas one person io-
Gated several hundred contiguous tracts as
reservoir sites. In limited section In one
county in Nebraska 800 locations were
made.
The new regulations viii limit the right
to these sites to those actually engaged IN
breeding, grazing and handling stock and
then to the actual necessities OF each ap-
plicant. They will also provide that II .
reservoir site il fenced or II an attempt =
made to use II for any other than reservoir
purposes the right to 1t shall be immediate
ly cancelled.
1t will be the purpose Of the new rcgu-
lations to AFFORD under the law ample Wa
ter facilities for all who really used them
for live stock and to effectualy prevent
abuses complained OF.

WILL CLAWSON'S HIT.
His New Picture of Miss II. Is the
Rage in San Francisco,

All the San Francisco papers, daily
as we'll as weekly, have given prom
inent space to the portrait exhibit by
j. w. Clawson the Salt Lake artist, at
the art exhibition Of the Bohemian
club. All the accounts are illustrated,
some Of them in beautiful fashion, and
the figure shown, that OF Miss H." Is
one that amply justides the writer's in
raying. The Examiner account says.
"The most striking picture at the Boz
hemian club art exhibition last week
was the portrait Of Miss H, by J. w.
Clawson. 1t Is a stunning lfe-size pic
ture Of a beautiful girl in a decollete
gown Of black velvet, and 1t created no
end OF admiration for the delicate, yet
bold blending Of vivid flesh tints and
rich high lights. The face and Shout
ders are sunused with a strong, warm
glow. and the whole figure stands ouI
from the deep red background in It's
unique oval frame Nsomber black as
regally as a queen Of ahl. In the ex-
preston Of the eyes and the pOise Of
the head there Is suggestion OF the
proud high spirit OF old CASTLE From
the moment IL was hung It created
great deal Of critical comment, for
though it was hung conspicuously on
the north wall Of the new links room,
ii was striking enough 10 dominate
everything In it's immediate neighbor-
hood, and that. too, In a room where
there were many pictures bearing
names that are famous In the art
world
But though his picture Of Miss III
is creating a greater furore than did
his portrait Of Mary Belle Gwin In
pink two years ago, Mr. ClawsOn Is
very modest about his work.
1T Is not the artist. Ii Is the model
that is responsible for II an he says
Where, I'm San Francisco--where in
deed in the whole United States-is
there another such subject to tax the
artists skill Miss III" has a splendid
head, a beautiful face. every feature OF
which is a study In itself, a perfect
figure and, above all, certain indefin
able spirit that lends to the whole pic
ture q regal aspect that Is hard to catch
and equally difficult to escape from,
when once the spell Of il is upon you.
Besides. she falls naturally into the
most graceful poses imaginable, aud Is
strong and sturdy enough u sit for
several hours every day without losing
the spirit Of the pose, which is one full
OF dignity and latent power Really,
have not done her justice In my paint
ing though it is the finest work | have
! ever done"
1t Is certainly striking enough on
| which 20 build the fame Of any artist
| but It was not the only picture from his
! brush In the exhibition. Like Amedee
Joulln. Francis McComas. John Stan
ton, Theodore Wores, Thad. WEIGH and
Orrin Peck. he had a number OF paint
ings on display. They were all por-
traits however There was a life-size
picture OF Ex-Governor Budd, two busts
Of w. Mayo Newhall and Fred Green
wood and a brilliant bust OF Mrs. Null
cahy, done all In blue.
