important Decision by Judge Thomas
OF the Federal Court.

Muskogee. I. IT,. Aug. A.
Judge Thomas has handed down
an opinion in the case of Sanders
VS.. Perryman, which is of much
interest to the residents of the In
dian Territory. Sanders had pur-
chased. an improvement in the
Greek nation from a man who had
been a citizen by marriage of the
Cheeokee nation, but had forfeited
his right in the nation by marry
ing a white woman. Perryman,
who is a citizen of the Greek ma
ton, filed on the land containing
these improvements aud was erect
ing house when Sanders OBJ
tained a temporary injunction
from Judge Thomas enjoining
him from erecting the house until
the further order of the court.
In finally determining the mat
ter Judge Thomas held that as the
man from whom Sanders pur-
chased the improvements had for
feited his right to citizenship in
the Cherokee nation before he sold
the improvements he had no right
to hold land in the Greek nation
and could therefore sell no right
to Sanders. He therefore ordered
the injunction dissolved and per-
mitted Perryman to hold the land
Regarding the improvements, how
ever, Judge Thomas held that in.

Horse.hoers Regret Flie..

Now that the warm season has
passed the "flies" have gone with it.
There is one class of men who sim
cerely regret the departure of the
flies. These are the horseshoers. 1t
is common idea that the winter is
the blacksmith's most prosperous sea-
son, but according to North side
horseshoer their most prosperous time
is during the warm weather when the
flies are numerous. In the winter the
horse wears out his shoes only when
he is running; when he comes to a
halt he stands perfectly still, while,
in summer the horse not only wears
out his shoes while he is on the gal
lop, but also when he comes to a stop.
In this position the flies get on his
legs and feet and bite him so hard
that when he lifts up his leg to throw
of the flies he brings down his hoof
on the ground with such force that
he wears out his shoes faster while
in this attitude than when he il ON

THE WHITE HOUSE is RICKETY
staggering and Threatening to Col
lapse as Result Of Its Use
n an once Building.

In the plan for building new house
for the president elsewhere than on
the present site it has been proposed
to utilize the present mansion for Of
fees, writes Col. Theodore A. Bingham,
u. S. A., in urging the adoption of Mrs.
Harrison's plans for enlarging the
house, in Ladies' Home Journal.
One plea therefor has been that the
historic building should be left az it is.
This is certainly to be insisted on. But
IL is said the mansion is too pure a
piece of architecture to be marred by
additions. This, however, is a specious
argument. since the original design
contemplated side additions, and if the
building in its present state were used
or six years. Those who have no ex-
perience with public buildings or with
this building in particular have no con-
ception of the wear and tear on pres
ident's Office. 1t surpasses that on any
other Office in the country. The pres
ent executive mansion was lightly built
and is already expensive to keep in
proper repair. Its floor beams are not
strong enough to endure Office use.
Great difficulty has arisen in the past
with the few rooms now used as the
presidents executive offices, and great
watchfulness has to be constantly ex-
ercised. Several times the floors have
threatened to break through. The
stairs have already broken down, one
fight being now supported by chain.
Still, to remodel for Office use only, the
whole interior of our historic executive
mansion would be not only a very ex-
pensive matter, but would fail to meet
the requirements of the case, and, also,
it is believed the approval of the coun-
try at large.

KAIsER's PRESS DUREAU.
Each Day from the News
papers.

There is in Berlin so-called literary
office" attached to the Prussian min
istry of the interior, which for the last
two years has been under the manage
ment of Herr DR.. Won Falck, Russian,
or rather q Baltic German, from the
russian province of Kurland, who was
formerly chief editor of the Silesian G "a
zette at Breslau. His chief occupation
is to read the newspapers and make
extracts and cuttings from them. which
are pasted into book, the more impor-
tant or interesting articles being un-
derlined with red or blue pencil to
catch the monarch's attention. This
book is placed on the emperor's desk.
The cuttings contain articles or ex-
tracts from articles taken from the
whole of the home and foreign press.
The emperor watches the foreign
press in Paris, London and New York
more closely than he does the German
press, says the London Mail. Everyone
acquainted with the German court
bears witness that he has a perfect
knowledge of the standing and general
attitude of the foreign newspapers,
particularly of those countries that in
terest him specially, for political or
other reasons. They are certainly more
familiar to him than are the great ma
jroity of the German papers. In this,
as in many other respects, William II.
resembles Frederick the Great, who
thoroughly mastered the international
literature of his time, to the neglect of
Prussian publications.

WHERE BOXER IS POPULAR.
Poiittesi Agftators in Cuba Rejoicing
Because Our Troops Are Being
Sent to China.

There is only one place in all Chris.
tendon where the Chinaman is now
looked upon with admiration" said
the man just back from Cuba, relates
the New York Sun. This is down
around Havana. where the professional
howlers for immediate independence
are punched the thickest. These fell
lows look on the 'Chinks' as a bless
ing, even if they are trying to mas
sacre all the Christians in the empire.
The agitators attribute the recall of
half our troops from Cuba to the need
for them in China to protect our citi-
xens and interests out there. and they
think it will hurry along independence
for their beloved land. They hope for
all sorts of trouble in China, SO that
the United States will have to send
more troops, and this they expect will
free the island of the last American
soldier. They want the American gov
ernment kept SO busy in the Philip
pines and in China that IT won't have
the men, money or time to fool with
Cuba.
thus they hope the country will be
dropped right where it is into their
hands. The less of weIl-established
government they have the better these
chaps will like it, for it will give them
the better opportunity to work out
their own schemes and fill their own
pockets.
The conservative element, even that
part of it which wants eventual inde-
pendence, hopes no such necessity will
arise that the United States will re-
move the rest of the troops. And they
feel confident that there is no danger
OF this. The violent agitator, who is
either way up in his hopes or ever
lastingly pessimistic, has taken the de-
parture of the Second, Fifth, Eighth
and ordered departure of the First in
fantry regiments as the beginning of
the immediate fulfillment of his wishes
and SO secretly rejoices in the rue
tions OF John Chinaman on his native
heath"

An owl electrocuted himself at Phil
iipsburg, Mont, recently, by flying
into the 16,0O0-volt transmission line
of the Montana Water, Electric Pow
er and Mining company. The power
plant at Flint Falls and the machinery
in the mill at Phillipsburg were work
ing as usual when the line was sud-
denly short circuited. The shutdown
was inexplicable until next morning,
when the Patrol found the dead bird
directly under the nne. The wings
and head of the owl showed distinct
marks of burning. Several years ago
an eagle came in contact with q high

Nothing more became Gen. jackson
than his chivalrous courtesy to wom-
en-, courtesy which he showed in
deeds as well as in words. On one
occasion he was going from Nashville
to Lexington, KY, with a party
which included a woman, who was
on her way to join her husband there.
She was taken sick and was unable
to proceed with the party when the
time came to leave one of their nieht
camps. The rest of her companions
were on the point of starting on with
out her, which would have been to
leave her exposed to privation and
perhaps to capture by the Indians.
Jackson leveled his rifle and threat
ened to shoot the first man who put
foot in his stirrup. All waited a day
longer, when the woman was able
to proceed on the Chicago

over to see me. Hold up your
skirts, Althea. You ought to have
gone around by the road this wet
morning"
"Wilfred insisted ON coming this
way" Althea answered, laughing.
II love to come by the zig-zag mead
ow path over to Aunt Roey's," said
the young man, and taking of his hat,
he made low bow to the little wom-
an standing in the doorway.
"Of all the happy ones ever saw,
do. believe you two are the happiest!"
said Aunt Roey, looking down at them
with shining eyes.

Althea.

Roey hasn't told her." said Althea.

place. Why, she even talks to the

my foolishness! Take Wilfred on into
the front room, and III call you in a
few minutes"

long. sunny parlor Wilfred took AL
thea's hand and led her to the piano.

special inducement to the young peo-
pie who lived across the meadow.

Brayton the instrument had brought
the little lady pleasure she had
never hoped for.

and looked up at him as the song
came to an end.

for their pleasure. You understand
