Mrs. Harrington Mason Follows Con-
gresham Sulzer.


New York, July 12.-Friends of Con-
gresham William Sulzer were interest
ed today in a story that Mr.. SuIzer, on
his way to Alaska on fishing trip, has
been pursued from New York by Mrs.
Harrington, who declared that she was
the fiancee of the representative.
According to the story, Mr.. Sulzer
and a New York friend arrived at Van
couVer, b. e, on w edneSday, ana on
the following day Mrs. Harrington put
in an appearance, evidently to the dis
cOmfiture of Mr.. SuIzer, who early on
Friday morning slipped quietly away
from his hotel and boarded a steamer
did not succeed in Guiding the vigilance
Of Mrs Harrington, who obtained pas
sage on the same vessel.
In political circles today It was said
that the woman was probably Mrs.
Dorothy Harrington Mason, who took
a conspicuous part in the local Demo-
cratic campaign of 1897. Mrs. Mason,
who is a handsome woman of the bT-u-
nette type, is said to have come origi-
nally from the upper part of this state
and to have been the widow of a Brit
ish army officer. During the campaign
she was constant in attendance at the
Democratic headquarters in the Hotel
BarthOldi, where she made the &C
quaintance of many prominent polite
ians. At her suggestion a big Demo-
cratic meeting for women was held in
the Lenox Lyceum, at which Mrs. Ma
son delivered an eloquent address.
She was often seen at this time in the
company of Congressman Sulzer, to
whom she said she was engaged to be
married. It is also said that she was
frequently seen with the representative
in Washington during the session of
congress last winter.
When in New York Mrs Mason lived
on East Twenty-hfth strest, near
Lexington avenue.

Who will come next? We have
made flattering beginning. | do
not ask for any money to be paid
until were are thoroughly organ

The leading topic of discussion
now is: Which is the greatest
calamity, the Curtis law or the
present state of affairs in the
Cherokee nation? At a darkey
debating society once the question
was, Which is the greatest, the sun
or the moon? The old negro who
sat as judge, in summing up
the argument, said that the moon
was the greatest because she gave
her light at night when it was
needed most, and that the sun
only shone in the day time when
it was already light, So the
Curtis bill must now be the best,
because it is the law.

HARK, FROM THE TOMB.
"Too-qua-stee'' Picks Up
Courage and Pen.


the agreement has been rejected
by the government, the disap.
pointed friends of that measure
are telling US flountingly that the
awful Curtis law is, for the future,
to be our inevitable bitter portion
We do not believe it; there are
two ways out of the difficulty. II
we do nothing, congress has a lit
tie legislation in view which will
modify the rigors of the Curtis
calamity. 1t is well known, how
ever, that it is not the choice
policy Of the government to deal
with the vested rights Of the Cher
okees by means Of arbitrary legis-
lation; it would much prefer to
proceed by way of amicable agree
ment. This was plainly evidenced
by the long and loose rein accord
ed by the Dawes men to our COM
missioners in framing the Musko-
gee agreement. But it would now
be much better for us to anticipate
legislation by coming to an agree
ment with the Dawes commission
As we have always said, an agree
ment is what we need, what. we
want, and what we must have, if
possible. We mean an agreement,
not job; an agreement that is fair
TO all, just to all. sensible, and at
least somewhat favored with that
pleasing fragrance which always
commends to the moral sense of
mankind the deeds Of wise, mag
unanimous, patriotic, self sacrificing
craftsmanship; one that will give
the poorest woman, the least or
phan, the most obscure ignoramus,
just as good a share OF the COM
mon estate as the biggest chief in
the tribe; that is what we want; it
is what the government demands.
The Muskogee agreement is now
out of the way. Let the chief,
then, call his council together at
once, have the necessary legisla-
ton, appoint a new commission
and let them meet the Dawes men
without delay; and if there be no
men found in the nation compe.
tent to get up fair, sensible
treaty. in the name of practical
common sense, let the chief call
upon the women of the country;
there are mutitudes of women in
our nation who, if they were only
allowed an opportunity, could al
lot our lands just as easily and
fairly as they could divide arosey-
checked apple among their own
children. Indeed, it is no difficult
job at all; 10 speak of it as imprac-
ticable, is a misrepresentation.
In truth, the Muskogee agree
ment itself, properly purged of
jobbery and general foolishness,
will be all that we could want, all
certainly that we need. Fix it
thus:
Strike out all that nonsensical
stuff about prospective statehood;
all that provision too which makes
a little dictator of the chief; let
that provision in reference to rail-
roads remain as it is; leave the
Delawares in the hands Of the
court where they properly belong;
reserve those mineral mines that
have been developed, from allot-
ment, to be leased for the benefit
of the tribe; let all other minerals
go with the soil; strike out the
townsite provision, and let the oc-
cupants of town lots take them at
their intrinsic value as so much Of

battery on Frederick NJ. Leach, an old

to stop him from taking it and as he
refused to take any notice of Leach, he
struck him over the head with an UNI

Thieves Take Any OLD Thing from Hens

Thieves who take everything of
value, from hens and chickens down to
lead pipe and old junk of any nature,
have been working at Leesville for two
or three nights past. Moses Pepin, n
local truck man, who lives on Hope
avenue, was the first to receive a visit
from the midnight marauders. Thurs
day morning he paid a visit to his hen
coop and found that a part of the &C.
cupants were missing. Now the last of
his flock of 81 has disappeared together
with a quantity of lead pipe. Investi-
cation proved that number Of his
neighbors had also been favored with a
cali from the thieves. The matter has

ROOF ABLAZE.

An alarm of fire from box PSI at

the fire department to a house at 70
Mfllbury street owned by Miss Han

bakery had set fire to the roof of Mrs.
Flynn's house and when the depart

roof was blazing lively, and the fire
had worked it's way inside. The furni-
ture and clothing belonging to the oc-
cupants of the top floor of the building
were badly damaged by fire and water,
but the furniture of the people living
on the lower floors was saved from Sc
rious damage.
