DICKINSON A PROTEcTIONIsT.
some Hints on Modern rethods in
Life Insurance.

Mr.. J. B. Dickinson, special
representative of the American
Union Life Insurance Co., of New
| York, who has been cordially re-
ceived in Vinita, has returned from
an extended trip through northern
Texas, Arkansas and the southern
half of the Indian Territory.
Mr.. Dickinson is very enthusi-
astic over the outlook for business
this fall and predicts great future
for the Cherokee nation, and the
town of Vinita. When seen this
morning at the Western, he said:
II am always glad to get back to
dear old Vinita, ! feel entirely at
home here. 1t is not only good
place for business, but there are
so many hospitable, nice people.
Our company has now about come
to the conclusion that the terri
tory is safe country to do busi-
ness in, and we are pushing our
several new policies to the front.
Business men everywhere are be-
coming better acquainted with life
insurance contracts, and | am glad
to know that they appreciate in
surance for protection, and not as
an investment, as formerly. The
greatest amount of protection for
the least possible cost, has been
my hobby, and / find this view is
growing popular with those who
give the subject much thought.
OF more than one million dol
lars in force in the Indian Territory
we have not yet had death loss,
but / am daily expecting one.
This, you know, will help to ad-
vertise the American Union, but
trust we will not have to record
such an event for some years to
come" The American Union is
certainly wide-awske and up-to-
date, and growing very popular
whereverit is known.

A BIT OF HISTORY.
PeriIous Position Once Occupied by
Bushyhead's Father.

The Cherokees we're tories, dur
ing the Revolutionary war and be-
fore, but after that time, appear
to have been extremely loyal to
the United States. In the Semi
mole war the father of the late ID.
w. Bushyhead went as a commits
sioner of the government into the
Everglades to make treaty with
Osceola. While on this mission
an act OF hostility at a distant
point led the Seminoles to believe
the Cherokee guilty of treachery
and death at the stake was decid-
ed upon. The victim was bound,
and every preparation made for
his execution when an Indian
n AIMED Wildcat saved him by CIV
ing information which exonerated
Bushyhead from the charge made
against him.

LITTLE FOLKS PARTY.
A Number of Them Entertained Last
Evening.

A more beautiful sight was sci.
dom ever witnessed than that oil
thirty-six pretty little girls and
boys who were entertained at the
home of little Gladys and Helen
Anderson last evening.
The bright happy faces and
dainty white costumes made a
beautiful picture indeed. Mrs.
Anderson was assisted in enter
tanning the children by Mrs. ]. B.
Turner, Miss Halle Thompson
and Miss Jessie Daniels.
A May pole, or rather June
pole, with eighteen ribbons had
been erected, which the children
never tired of braiding during the
evening.
Refreshments consisting of lem
onade, ice cream and cake were
enjoyed and at late hour the
happy little folks reluctantly took
their departure, most of them
wishing that "little folks could
have parties as often as grown
folks" Those present were: Lu-
cile Milford, Helen Churchill, Eva
Mellette, Rosalie Mellette, Helen
Mellette, Katherine Barnes, Ft.

Work Of The Commission.

The Dawes commission came in
Saturday evening from the Choc-
taw nation, having completed the
enrolment at Red Oak, The CON-
mission will next convene at
Hartshorne about August l. and
from there 60 to Calvin and Du-
rant, finishing its work among the
Choctaws at South Canadian.
"People may think we have a
soft snap, but tell you they are
mistaken" said Col. McKennon
to reporter Saturday. "We are
very busy and have ali we can do.
We begin work at 7:30 in the
morning and close at 6 or Z in the
evening, and yet the days work is
not finished; after that there is a
great deal of work to be done in
the way of closing up the books
and official correspondence. We
enrolled at Red Oak about $50
Indians and ITO negroes, making
a total of about 1920; and have en-
rolled up to the present time, alto
gether, about $3.50 Choctaw citi-
zens and $500 negroes, constitut-
ing about two-thirds the total
population of citizens. Owing to
the excessive death rate last year,
the increase and death rate are
about equal, making but little
difference In point of numbers be-
tween this roll and that OF 1896"

Tendency Toward protection.

The people of this country had a
costly experience under President
Cleveland with tariff squirting at
free-trade,. and they want no more of
it. Even the British parliament, by
14l majority, recently votedf for pro-
tective measure modelled on Ameri-
can lines," as Lord Curzon said, for
the benefit of the sugar producers of
India. The tendency everywhere is
toward tariff protection. The world
never had a more powerful demon
stration of the benefits OF protective
tariff than it had under the Mckinley
administration. No steps backward
will be taken by the United States.

A boomerang Joke.

(From the Cleveland Plain Dealcr.)
There was joke attempted in this city
yesterday which fell remarkably fiat.
Ii was conceived by some jolly young
clerks against another. quiet fellow. who
is of Irish descent. but has always SEEM
ed rather ashamed to own it.
Now. nobody likes to see man asham-
ed of his race and the other boys decided
that they would put up joke upon him
when ST. Patrick's day came round and
have ii fully advertised for once at least,
that he was a son of the jolly old saint.
So on the morning of the 18th they set
to work early. before he came down. and
draped his desk in glowing green until not
a spot of wood was left. They wound the
pens with ribbon of the same shade. giddy
green bows Haunted from the pencils, the
chairs were draped to match, and one en-
ergetic young man had spent much valua-
BILE time and some money in actually pro-
curing a big blotter of the vivid tint.
Then they dispersed to their desks and
waited. IL was very late before their vic
tim appeared. but when they heard him
coming down the hall, every man took a
little giggle and then waited.
But where was their quiet, steady friend ?
The door was swung open with a bang. an
odor Of real Irish whisky swept over to
their noses. necktie of glowing green
confronted them. and the air was sudden
ly filed with a perfect shower of sham
rocks. that fluttered down on every desk,
while loud and very decided voice an
nounced that the man who failed to don
one. would have his head knocked in in
stanter.
Then, as the gentleman caught sight of
the decorated desk, he emitted a regular
Irish howl of JOY, and went around to
thank every man in the place for the deli
cate attention.
Of course. that was all very nice, but
as they had prepared for something very
different they naturally felt fiat, and now
they are wondering if he Caught and
took that way to pay them back, or if it
was really all genuine.
And ! imagine that on that point they
will go on imagining to the end of the
chapter, for the gentleman has relapsed
into his former state of quiet and he's
not the kind of man who talks when he
doesn't wish to.

Chicago. April s.-'The Chronicle" says
that a syndicate, with $500. .00e. Geo backing,
composed Of New York, Philadelphia and
Chicago men. identified with the traction
interests Of New York, Philadelphia, and
other cities, has been formed and is now
negotiating for the purchase and consolida-
tion of all the Chicago traction companies,
surface and elevated, with good prospects
Of a successful conclusion. The interested
parties are now talking prices, and though
that stage has been reached before In SINH
lar negotiations which have proved unsuc-
cessful, there are many reasons to look for
ward to the final closing Of deal this
time.
From one source it comes that the syndi-
cate proposes to take City Railway at $50,
North Chicago at little better price, and
West Chicago at 1875; from another source
that City Railway stockholders are offered
800, North Chicago $50 andi West Chicago
100. In the case of the City Railway the
s., ,0OO, 900 new stock. authorized; but not
yet issued. is included. and, according to
the terms of the offer. would be paid for at
the same price as stock already Outstand-
ing. The City Railway management pro-
poses to issue the $2,00O.000 new stock
one-h half in July and one-haif in October.
The shareholders will get the new stock
at par.
On a capital Of $500, ,O0O. 900 the properties
which are making profits would earn about
2 per cent from their last years reports.
Great economies which would be possible
would much increase the net earnings. and
the amount of stock mentioned might be
put upon a 4 per cent basis. Competition
would be entirely done away with.
