New Commander for the Dolphin.

An order was issued by the Secretary
of the Navy yesterday assigning Lieut..
Commander W. H. II. Switzerland TO the
command of the despatch boat Dolphin.
He will relieve Commander Henry w.
Lyon. who is placed on waiting orders.
This is considered desirable assign
ment. and is a high compliment to the
professional ability Of Lieutenant Com
mander Southerland. The Dolphin makes
her headquarters at Washington, but is
sent off frequently on cruises along the
coast. She has been used By several
Presidents for trips down the Potomac and
along the coast. Just before the war with
Spain. Lieutenant Commander Souther-
land was executive officer of the Dolphin
nnder Commander Lyon and was detached
IN become commander of the gunboat
Eagle. He performed excellent service in
the war off the coast of Cuba, notably in
the cable-cutting operations at Cienfuegos
and in the capture and destruction OF the
Spanish warship Santo Domingo. several
times larger than the Eagle. Mr.. South
erland is popular in naval circles and his
friends regard his new assignment as a
deserved tribute He will take command
of the Dolphin on June 20. meanwhile per-
forming his present duties in charge of
naval militia work.

SOCIAL AND PERSONAL.

St. Johns Church, adorned with white
flowers and palms. was the scene of an
other pretty wedding yesterday at noon.
The very pretty bride was Miss Ruth 3Ier-
riam, daughter of Capt. Lewis Merriam,
L. S a, by whom she was given in mar
riage. and the groom Dr. Frank H Shultz.
The maid OF honor Miss Shultz. who vas
the brides only attendant preceded her up
the aisle in a picturesque gown of white
organdie and Il large soft hat OF white
null. Her bouquet of purple sweet peas
was tied with purple ribbons. The we'd
ding gown was of organdie and the tulle
veil was thrown back from the wearer' s
face. The bridal bouquet was OF bride
roses. The ushers were DR.. HURT. DR..
Mullins. DR. w. p. Malone, and Mr.. Alan
Clephane The groom and his best man,
Mr.. Duncan awaited the arrival of the
bridal party in the chancsl. where the Cere-
mony was performed by Rev. DR.. Mackay-
Smith. 4 number OF friends from Rich
mond came on to attend the wedding, the
brides family being former residents OF
that city.
The climax of the June season was
reached on Wednesday and those relatives
and friends of the various brides and
grooms who remained in town to see them
safely married are wisely taking hem
selves to green fields and pastures more or
less new where the thermometer is not
given to climbing such dizzy heights in
the shade. The good people of Washing
ton are given TO saying ideal things about
the Capital as a summer city-hut 1t Is
made annually noticeable that nobody
spends the summer here who can pos
sibIy get away.

The absconding Of Smith Judy
from town a few days ago and for
feiting a $3.50 bond on the charge
of selling intoxicating liquors,is an
indication that those who have
been violating the liquorlaws have
little hope Of getting out Of court
with an Insignificant sentence.
The regularity with which Judge
Springer has sent offenders to the
penitentlary over the protest Of
their friends has alarmed the craft
and is about to put stop to the
sale OF mist and other intoxicants.
Luther Bates is on trial today

Of Bert Lining at Bob iKlaIse's

ten head Of cattle belonging to va

bound over in the sum of $1,000,

FROM OTHER SANCTUMS.
Other Territory Papers on the
Chleftain Boycott.

Me boycott business at Vinits
10 cooling down alittle apparently.
A private citizen has the privilege
of stopping his paper whenever
he wishes but he should never
let his animosity drive him to
pit business institutions against
each other, for 1t Injuries the
town. The Chieftain is surely
i entitled to some consideration for
the way it has lied about Vinita,
praised her people, mognifsd her
resources and boasted of her trade,
when everyone knew they were
no better off than any other town
in the Cherokee nation. Even il
the tax is illegel, as il appears
TO man up a tree, the bank will
cut its own throat by continuing
the fight, for popular opinion is
for once with The Chieftain.
-Claremore Courier.
What between this "reserva-
tors, Commuters" and cattle
men the Vinita Chiefiain is having
peck of trouble but is making
things so hot for the boycotters
that they are already beginning to
squirm. The tax-tighters have
been reinforced by The First Ma
tional Bank, but that seems only
to diminish their force. as so per
cent of the stockholders and more
than so per cent of the directors
belong to the classes enumerated
above. If one half of the charges
hinted at by The ChieftaIn be cor
rect, the morality Of the moneyed
men Of Vinita must have reached
q very low state, and the placing
of few of those whom that paper
has hitherto shielded behind the
bars might purify the atmosphere,
so as to be almost wholesome
for the respectable people who re-
side there. The boycott is an un-
American weapon, and generally
proves boomerang 10 those who
descend so low as to use it. The
Chieftain, when the air 10 purified,
will be the gamer. -Fairland Bee.
The cry Of extortion and unjust
taxation comes with poor grace
from the big cattlemen OF the Cher
okee nation. They have bad the
unrestricted use of the grass be-
longing to the Cherokee nation for
a good many years and have not
even been asked TO pay the little
royalty of fifty cents q head inn
posed by the Cherokee laws.
These men from their own state
ments have been making from S.
to s15 per head on Texas steers
grazed one season upon the public
domain Of the Cherokee ration.
and yet are not willing to pay the
owners oi the grass fifty cents a
head for the privilege. The Cher
okees have not an extortionate Law
upon their statute book, saye per-
hsps the "white clerx law" and Il
has been declared Institutional
By tho tribal coutts. The cattle-l |
mon have placed themselves In !
very unenviable attitude before

Indians City cents . head for graz
