taw lands are settled upon and
prospective allotments declared.
Should the nation pursue the
course of attempting to enjoin the
government it is believed that suf-
fcient timber could be secured
from the lands of the prospective
allottees to meet all the require
ments.

recently discovered some remark
able deposits of asphalt on the
eastern lands of the Choctaw ma
ton, which, it is believed. will re-
suit in the development Of this in
dustry in that country.
The pure asphalt" said Mr..
Moulton, in discussing the subject
with your correspondent. has
never been discovered heretofore
in this country and there is no
scientific name, for it. The chief
supply for asphalt has been the
lake of Trinidad and the Gilsonite
mines in Utah. In the Indian
Territory there are mines Of asphalt
where bituminous sand and btu
minous limestones are mixed in
such proportions that the product
is fit, without other preparation
than grinding and heating, to be
laid as paving in the street.
The asphalt mine which ]
found among the Choctaws is
about 96 per cent. pure. 1t looks
much like coal, but it is cuited for
japanning, roofing and like pur-
poses"
MIR. MouIton comes from an
eastern family, but has lived much
in Chicago. He has been engaged
in coal mining in the Indian Ter
ritory. which Territory, he says,
has progressed wonderfully in the
building of railroads and the de-
velopment of its natural resources
under the administration Of the
interior department.

been called afresh to Edgar
Allen Poe, the following ex-|
tranrdinary fact will be ofin-
terest 1t was about 1916
that Poe went to New York
searching for employment,
and became so "hard up"
that he sold "The Raven" to
the American Review for five
dollars. He went out to
Fordham, in Westchester
county, a suburb OF ofGotham,
to live, and it was here that
his "child wife," the Annabel
Lee Of his most beautiful
poem, died and was buried in
the village cemetery.
Somewhere about 1881 or
1882 the people OF Fordham
desired to remove the grave
yard, and therefore proceed
ed to disinter the bodies. A
gentleman of New York who
had always been a great ad-
mirer of Poe heard Of this
and went out, determines to
see to it that the grave OF
.Annabel Lee be not unDeces-
sarily desecrated. He .arriv.
ed only in time to find the
grave already opened and
the bones thrown out. AS
no one seemed to care he
gathered together the prec-
ious though uncanny relics,
and wrapping them in a pa
per, took them to his own
home, where in a box they
were reverently k pit tfor near

were sent to Baltimore to- be
