congress to allow the Cherokee ma
tion to sue the United States in

being used to "farm the big bill
through the lower house."

lower house and viii likely be-
come law Il is as follows:

tion Of practitioners of dental
surgery and TO regulate the prac-
tice Of dentistry in the Cherokee
nation.

tional council of the Cherokee ma
tion, that il shall be unlawful for

chase Of the claim at S0cents on the !
dollar is growing to be a matter Of
small interest. Council shouldre-l
quire Trasher to put up the cash
if he wants to buy the claim and
not have any options in it. W.O.
Cox offers to collect the claim for
ten per cent. Gov. Troutman
wants eight per cent for the first
two millions and six per cent for
the balance.
A bill establishing an insurance
in the Cherokee nation
will pass the house today.

THE GLASS OF FASHION.

Emeralds Are the most fashionable
jewels just at the moment.
There is said to be a great demand
for lace hosiery for summer wear.
A novelty in wraps is 4 half coat Of
lace, rounded up the back and trimmed
with ru1lles of chiffon.
Piqucs will be used more than ever
this year Those with alternating
stripes of openwork are an innovation.
Chemlscttes for tailor made suits are
losing that stiff, ungainly effect by the
introduction of lace, insertion and fine
tucks.
In bonnets are seen the little, round
capote. the trcfoil and the broad Dutch
bonnet, which Is similar to the old
fashioned cottage bonnet.
Embroidered cuffs and collars of
muslin, edged with valenciennes lace,
are fashionable. The collars are mount
ed on stocks of colored satin.
Skirts Of many of the thin gowns are
tucked down several inches at the
back, thereby giving the desired fiat eff
feet and some fulfness at the same
time.
Jabots of lace, scarfs with elaborate
ends. tulle boas, flowers or ANYTHING
suggestive of "tlutfiness" will be worn
to counterfeit the severe effect of tailor
gowns.
Foreign fashion notes tell us that
mitts are worn instead of gloves with
ball and dinner gowns. They are pre-.
sumably made of lace and fastened to
the sleeve.
Little turn over collars Of fine linen
lawn, hemstitchcd in small battlemcnt
squares, each finished ut the end with
design in heavy cream applique lace,
are one Of the many pretty novelties
recently imported.
