THE NEW YEAR.
We Should Meet It's Trials and Temptations With
Strong Faith In God

The return of New Years day invites
many people to the most somber rehec-
tions. Undoubtedly most of us can find
abundant occasion for these, but there is
such thing as pushing determination and
self-condemnation to the point of discour-
agement. The best temper with which we
can enter upon the new year is that of faith,
faith in God and faith in ourselves through
His help. 1t is about as certain as any
thing can be that the new year will bring
us new experiences. Our courage, eur ca
pacity for endurance, our steadiness of char
acter and power Of resistance is to be tested.
At the end of the year we are going to be
nobler men and women than we are to-
day, or we shall have deteriorated morally.
and forever afterward there will be narrow
ing opportunities. While we think of the
latter alternative it is well to strengthen
our hearts by the former. Let us believe
that we are not going to fail and we have
taken a long step towards success. When
another New Years day comes around we
are going to be able to reckon solid gains
in character won through the trials and
temptations and emergencies of the years

YELLOW JACK RAGING.
Newport News. VirRInIa. In q Turmoil Of
ExcItement-ren Deaths.

Newport News, Va, July 3d.
Thirty cases of yellow fever in Sol
dier Home at Hampton and ten
deaths in the last two days is the
startling news that comes from the
reservation to might.
This city is in a turmoil of ex-
citement and Hampton and Old
Point have quarantined against
the home and Newport News will
follow suit early in the morning.
1t was learned from an official
source late this evening that there
is no doubt regarding the nature
of the disease.
The epidemic appeared in the
home nearly week ago, but the
physicians have been in doubt re-
garding its nature and did not de-
eide until to-day that it was black
vomit.
As soon as it was definitely de-
termined that the dreaded scourge
was raging in the institution steps
were taken to protect the public.
The cars were prevented from
running within half a mile of the
reservation. 1t is feared, how
ever, that much damage has al
ready been done, as there were two
or three excursions going from the
interior to-day which spent Sab
bath on the beach and in Hampton.
The health authorities have taken
steps to battle with the scoprge
and it is believed that they will be
able to handle it successfully.
There were seven deaths yester-
day and three to-day More than
1000 veterans of the civil war are
sheltered in this home.

AGAINST SINGLE STATEHOOD.
Indian Territory Opposed to Statehood
Joined with OkIahoms.

Washington, D. c., July 3d.
j. i. Gordon, prominent young
at orney of the Indian Territory, is
in Washington ON legal business.
He says that if an attempt is made
during the next session of congress
to bring Oklahoma and the Indian
Territory into the Union as one
state. the people of the Territory
will oppose it.
The sentiment in the territory
against statehood, if it is only to
be had through union with Okla
homa, is very proLounced," said
Mr.. Gordon. We do not want to
be merged with Oklahoma in any
sort of way, and we know that the
only reasons that actuate the politi-
clans of that territory in their de-
sire to swallow us are selfish ones.
The Indian Territory is in mag
nifcent condition. The crops are
heavy, cattle are fat, and there is
general prosperity. A few days
ago there was a sale of u 900 head
of beef steers in one of our towns
for which the buyers paid $50 pc,
head. Cowmen of the Southwest
are getting to be cattle barons
once more. as they were in the
flush times of the early SOS"

OKLAHOnA DIVORCE RUSH.
Revival of a Once FIourIshInR Business
In the Territory.

The rush of divorce seekers to
Oklahoma has begun again. At the
opening of that country the first
legislature passed a very liberal
divorce law, and thousands of peo-
pie from New York City and other
large cities of the East, and even
from London, rushed to the terri
ritory, and after a three e-months'
stay entered suit for divorce from
an Objectionable husband or wife.
The rich and the poor availed them
selves of the liberal divorce pro-
visions of the law to get a divorce,
but Congress two years ago knock
ed the business lii the head by pass
ing law making it necessary for
a residence of one year before di-
vorce suit could be filed. This law
from all indications, was passed in
the interest of South Dakota. but
the legislature of South Dakota
passed law making it necessary
to reside in the state one year be
fore suit for divorce could be flied,
hence the rush to that state, with
its cold climate, has stopped. and
Oklahoma once more will be the
divorce Mecca. Lawyers who form
ally resided in that territory have
located in New York City, and all
are busily engaged in sending peo-
pie away where they can obtain a
divorce easily. These lawyers have
agents in all the large cities of the
United States, and in London and
Paris. At one time during the di-
vorce rush, preceding the law pass
ed by Congress making a years S
residence necessary before divorce
could be filed, there were nearly
1000 foreign divorces in the terri
tory and the same may occur again.

NATIONAL TAX SUSTAINED.
Lawyers Must Pay It or Get Out-Other
Indian Affairs.

Muskogee. l. T., July 29.-In
the United States court here today,
before Judge John R Thomas.
argument was heard on the applica-
ton of lawyers living in the Greek
nation, who sought by injunction
to restrain Indian Inspector J..
George Wright and Indian Agent
Shoenfelt from collecting the an
nual tax of SO imposed on attor-
neys by the laws of the Greek ma
ton. The penalty for failure to
pay this tax subjects the delin-
quent to removal from the Indian
Territory by the United States In
dian agent, who may be assisted
by the military, if they are needed.
The lawyers alleged that they
were officers of the United States
court, and were not therefore sub
ject to the tax. The injunction
was denied; and, if the tax is not
paid, the lawyers who refuse to
pay will be removed.
This decision is regarded as having
far-reaching Importance, as it prac-
tically decides that the permit laws
of the different nations in the In
dian Territory are valid and can
be enforced by the interior depart
ment through its officers. The in
spector and Indian agent were re-
presented by United States Dis
trict Attorney SOper.

.BEACH-COMBERS PULLED
POLICE ROUND UP WATER FRONT
MIGRANTS.
The Deserving Sailor who Feels too
Strong to Work Following Footsteps
of the Wharf Rats.

After dealing with he wharf rats,
the police have now taken hold of the
beach -combers and are rounding them
up as fast as they can be found. The
beach combers are men who live on
waterfront graft" refusing work and
sleeping at night among the softest
freight they can find. Six of them were
arrested yesterday and taken to the
police station on charges of vagrancy.
Two at once expressed a wish to ship
and they will be given a chance on the
next vessel that wants a crew.
The way of the waterfront vagrant Is
not a stoney one, until the police get
after him. He is usually a deserter
from some ship, having decided after
arrival here that he is too strong to
work for a time at least. He begins
Sailors Home into his confidence.
Bluxome generally furnishes board and
lodging for a short period, varying with
the Individual, while Jack is waiting for
q ship Then there comes a morning
when he is not at the Sailors Home ana
Bluxome has a small bundle of dirty
clothes as security for moneys Que
The man becomes a beach-comber, liv-
ing on what he can pick up. He shows
UP on board some vessel at about meal
time, and few cooks are so hard heart
ed as to refuse him a small hand-out
One of those arrested arrived on the
Charles e. Moody. He went to the
Sailors Home with 800 in his pockets
having just been paid off. In two OF
three days he had "blown" it all ano
he left without paying board.
Marshal Brown has given orders &c
arrest all the Migrants who are hang
ing around the waterfront and they VII
soon have to go to work either on the
reef or on some vessel.
