DIED.


KELLY-At Pollock, La, at 7:3O
P. IN. on Monday, July 81, 1899,
MISS MAGGIE KELLY, born at Winn-
Held, La, July 5, 1871, departed this
life at the age Of % years and 26
days.
We have never been more saddened
to record the death OF a friend, than
in the present case. Miss Maggie
Kelly, daughter of DR.. and Mrs. j. +.
Kelly, was perhaps the best known
young lady in Grant parish. She has
been one of the best teachers in our
public schools for several years, and
numbered among her friends hun
dreds of the parents and children of
the parish, who were entirely won
over by her pleasant ways and firm
and just management. She was edu-
Gated at Mt. Lebanon college, and
united with the Baptist church at
WINFIELD about fourteen years ago,
unuer the ministry OF Rev. VIM. Me-
Bride, and has led an exemplary
christian life ever since. Her DISPOSE
ton was sunny and cheerful, and her
presence was always a solace to
friends and loved ones. Let them all
take comfort in the knowledge that
to the last she relied upon Him who
doeth all things well.
Her remains were brought to Colfax
on Tuesday, and escorted by a large
of friends and relatives 20 the |
Tabernacle at Villas, where a touching |
funeral address was delivered by Rev.
J. II. Winberry, after which she was
aid to rest in the graveyard on the
hill near by.

The Scheme Didn't Work.

Inc DISMISSAL OF the grand jurors
and the petit jurors at the late July
term of the district court, was not a
successful campaign dodge. You see
there was no money in the parish
treasury to pay jurors and witnesses
q thousand dollars or so, had court
attended to it's regular business, and
it was an awkward time for our Pop
friends to have so much scrip hawked
about just before the election.
Pressure was brought to bear ON
the Judge and a petition was circula-
ted to have him postpone the term
altogether, but his honor would not
listen to the proposition, and several
hundred dollars in scrip had to be is
sued, and the cat was let out of the
bag anyhow. Thus the people found
out the Pops didn't have any money
in the parish treasury, in spite of the
blowing by their fuglemen.

When young Laplander is in love
with girl he and she run race. He
Is heavily handicapped, SO that she may
win if she chooses, and if she outrun
: him he cannot propose again. OF course
she suffers herself to be overtaken If
she cares for him, but the consent Of
her parents must be obtained before
she can be married. The law of the
! land is very strict on this point, and
in olden times the man was subject to
1 capital punishment If he married with
out the consent of the girls parents,
After Laplander has chosen a bride
he sends her a present of q girdle, a
ring and quantity of brandy; he
goes as far as the door Of her hut, but
remains outside until invited to enter,
when bumper of brandy is offered. to
the girls father; if he drink it is a
sign he consents to the marriage, and
the young lover then promises to give
the girl some clothes, and pays a sum
of money, generally 100 copper dollars,
on the spot. This, Of course, is a rem
nant Of marriage by purchase, which,
in primitive times, succeeded marriage
by capture. Banns are published once
in Lapland and the marriage ceremony
is very short. The bride wears her hair
loose and has gold band round her
head. Her presents and her dowry are
generally reindeer, and she and her
bridegroom remain with her parents
for . year after marriage.

The Citizenship Trouble.

In the test Indian citizenship
case which has been filed at the In
dian Office, the petitioners, Ann L.
DENLY and Oza j. Wingfeld were
represented before the Dawes com
mission on June 5th, by Attorneys
Hudson and Arnold of this place.
The Dawes commission refused to
consider the application OF these
parties, upon the ground that they
did not make application as Choc-
taw citizens in time. This ruling
is declared to be arbitrary on the
