The ancients believed that rheumatism
was the work Of demon within man.
Any one who has had an attack Of scIatic or
inf1ammatory rheumatism will agree that
the infiictiOn is demoniaC enough to warrant
the belief 1t has never been claimed that
Chamberlsin's Pain Balm would cast out
demons, but 1t will cure rheumatism, and
hundreds bear testimony to the truth OF this
statement. One application relieves the
pain, and this quick relief which it affords
is alone worth many times its cost. For

Times this morning that the In
dian department has ruled that all

States Indian agent at Muskogee,
within sixty days of the date OF
service Of the appraisments by the
townsite appraisers.

RIGHT AND PROPER.
Let the Powerful be Attack
ed First.

1t has been remarked, without
reason or sense, that the interior
department chose for personal rea-
sons to eject +. NJ. Smith from the
Cherokee nation on account OF re-
fusal to pay royalty on hay export
ed from the Cherokee nation. 1t
is perfectly obvious that in such a
case the ringleaders, the men Of
means and influence, whose con-
duct lead the masses into error,
should be selected as proper SUBJ
jects for severity. The same rule
should apply TO the cattlemen. If
1t becomes necessary to make an
example of anyone the big ones
should be selected. The same rule
should also apply to the prose-
cution Of cattle thieves and whisky
sellers. Thieves and law-breakers
in high places ought to be made
feel the effects of the law first,
that they may be examples for
weaker men.

Departure, and Visit at Hon

MID ocEAN, Oct. 5, 1889.

1T. Dear Sister:-'Twas on the
LIST of October. 1899, that the 32nd
I U. s. v. infantry awoke bright
and early to be in readiness to
board the transport. We we're
ready and started on the march a
distance. of tlve miles at III a. m.
We marched the whole distance
through the streets of San Fran
cisco, Cal. People crowded the
streets and even got on house-tops
to cheer us on our way. | took it
all in good spirits until we reach
ed the dock and boarded the boat
We ate dinner about 3 p. M, and
at 4 p. m. the signal TO start was
lgiven. The ropes were loosed
from the piers and the boat began
to move slowly out into the bay,
the band playing "The Star spang-
led Banner" while every soul on
board was silent. When the band
ceased playing we gave three
cheers. and thousands of people
thronged the platforms, waving
their hats, flags and handkerchiefs,
while many cried. / still took
ell in good spirits, but when the
band began to play my Old Ken
tricky Home Far Away" / choked
down in sobs of sorrow and sad
ness. 1t made me think of the
dear old Cherokee nation and all
my dear friends and relatives 80
far from me. We swung out into
the bay and passed the battle ships
Iowa and Marblehead, which were
anchored out in the bay. About
that time the American flag on our
boat was lowered and the English
| flag raised. The band continped
playing patriotic music of which
the last was ION the Banks of the
| Wabash. I could not speak.
| We sailed westward and passed
through the Golden Gate which
leads from the bay to the ocean.
When we reached the ocean the
tide was very high and the waves
tossed our boat around like some
huge mad beast. About dark all
began to get sick and by morning
there were only three out of 100
able to care for themselves and at
tend to the wants of others. / was
sea sick for FIVE days while the
boat seemed as though it would
tip over every minute; | was so
sick / didn't care If it did sink.
Monday, Oct. 9th.-We got in
sight Of the Sandwich islands
about ! p. m. yesterday and arriv-
ed at Honolulu last night at IL
o'clock. We were turned loose
4 about five hours this morning.
This is the most beautiful place /
ever saw--an almost perfect para
disc. Today we had the best din
ner we've had for long time. A
rich old man here in the Hawaii
islands fed about eighty Of US.
He is SO years Of age and no one
l but himself. He gave us an intro

dy--a christian lady, and all had
TO shake hands with her. He
made US all call him grandpa and

when we went 10 leave he said.
"What will grandpa do when his
