CHARACTER OF THE CHINESE.
 Our estimate of Chinese character should not be biased by the outrages of the fanatical Boxers and lawless sol diery, but rather should seek for the possibilities of development on the higher lines of morality and achieve ment of the masses of the population
 Thus we shall find that the Chinese peo- pie and the country they occupy are sufficiently vast and promising to en- list the patient consideration of the most experienced diplomatists and statesmen of the world. It is the calm judgment of those best acquainted with the Chinese that physically and men tally they are capable of accomplishing anything demanded of them. The Chi- nese cannot point to many public works as monuments of their genius and pow CTS, but they are not entirely without evidence of possibilities of achieve ment under enlightened conditions
 The great wall and Grand canal, con- sidering the circumstances and the age in which the work was done, are indi- cations of engineering possibilities that may enrich mankind when modern sci entific ideas enter into their mental equipment. Many of the useful inven- tions which have served the Chinese people for centuries exhibit powers that, under the influence of future de- mands, may make the world their debt
 or. In diplomacy the Chinese have sel- dom appeared at disadvantage when dealing with the best-trained men of the west. Their literature is vast in ex- tent, though not specially valuable from the standpoint of Occidental re- quirements. Their histories are written with the most laborIous and exhaustive

The JL~ger In Uganda.

Several sepoys were suffering from
that African pest, the 'jigger," whose
scientific name of Pulex penetrans de-
scribes him and his habits concisely
and we'll. He is an exact reproduction
In miniature of the common flea (Pulex
irritans), but instead of, merely inflict-
ing a comparatively. innocuous bite he
burrows under the skin, close to the
toe nails for preference, and then pro-
ceeds to propagate the species.
Unless he Is very carefully removed
the sores cause the most intense irh-
tation and may Jay a nan up complete
ly. The usual methodIof removing him
is toawiden the. hale in which he has
entered and then extract him, intact II
possible, with a needle, care being TAX
en- that no eggs or young are left be-
hind. The place should then be dressed
to prevent fostering. 1t is not advisa-
BILE to march much after removing Jig
gers, but unfortunately it Is frequently
unavoidable.
may mention that Lieutenant Colo
mel Macdonald once told me that dur
ing his first visit to Uganda some ma
tives caught a leopard in one of the
banana plantations whose feet were so
thoroughly diseased from jiggers that
he was quite unable to move or to de-
fend himself.-Blackwoo

His Time to FiRht.

when General Grant was presi-
dent" said a Washington man, "a Ger.
tain friend of his came out of the west
to see him. One day, just after leaving
the White House, this friend fell in
with fellow westerner in the White
House grounds, and heated encounter
took place, which suddenly terminated
by the generals friend knocking the
other man down and out.
'The matter was hushed ND, but the
general, naturally indignant, called his
friend to account, saying: John, you've
treated me and the Office / hold with
much discourtesy. Why did you dc
such thing?
"'Well, it was this way, general re-
piled the now thoroughly penitent one.
You know there was bad blood be-
tween US. and he had set all sorts of
stories going about me. Just after
leaving you l ran into him.. and he at
once accused me OF doing a certain
thing. As it was a lie only laughed
at him. Then he accused me of some
thing else, and that being also a lie /
Jeered at him again, but his third accu-
sation vas true, and, by gad, sir, |
couldn't stand that, so 1 knocked him
down. New York Tribune.

Pay Day In, China.

New Years is the national pay day
In China. All accounts must be squar-
ed up at that time, and the man who
can't raise money enough to pay his
debts has to go into bankruptcy. The
laws are such that the creditor can en-
ter the debtors house and take what
he pleases IL there is no settlement.
To prevent such action families club
together and make all sorts of COM
promises to keep up the business repu-
tation of the clan. New Years is a
great day for the pawnbrokers. Their
shops are crowded with people who
want to redeem their best clothes be-
fore the new year. There are crowds
also who want to pawn other things
In order to get money to pay their
debts. Pawnbrokers receive high rates
OF interest, in which they are protect
ed by the government.
The Chinese paint the whole country
red on New Years day in more senses
than one. Red is the color which with
them denotes good luck and prosperI-
ty, and all the New Years cards and
Invitations are on paper of that color.
Every child gets its New Years pres-
ent wrapped In red paper, and red in
scriptions are pasted over the doors of
the houses.-London Mail

PERHAPS we owe an apology to
Mr.. Henry l.. Dawes for saying
that he does nothing on the COM
mission bearing his name. We
understand that he is one of the
hardest worked members of that
body. To him is confded the
work of convincing the Washing
ton authorities that the Indian
Territory would fall off the earth
should the weight of the Dawes
commission be suddenly removed
from it. He earns his salary by
the sweat of his jaw.-Purcell
Register.
Considering the dense ignorance
which has pervaded the halls of
national legislation. until very re-
Gently, concerning the situation in
the sTerritory, the share of labor
thus devolving on the venerable
chairman of the commission has
hardly been commensurate with the
salary received. With the excep-
tion of a few congressman from
adjoining states and a few others
like Curtis of Kansas, who have
taken special pains to inform them
selves on Territory affairs, the
ignorance OF legislators as to our
country, its people and its institu-
tions has been proverbial. The
popular agitation of last year, cul-
minating in innumerable me-
MORALS to congress touching var
ious interests here have awakened
the members to a realization of the
fact that they have been imposed
upon by their sources of informa-
ton in the past. Hence the re-
fnsal of the committee to include
in the appropriation bill the $780,
600 asked for by the commission
until they have received fuller in
formation on the subject. The
chances are that Mr.. Dawes posi-
ton, if it be what the Register
surmises, will not be as great a
sinecure in the future as it has
been in the past.

Owe BOTH SIDES.

Inspector Wright of Muskogee
while here Friday in an interview
charged the papers of the southern
district with sensationalism in con-
nection with the lease question, and
stated that he expected, from their
reports, to find all of the Santa Fe
country Observation-Disclosures
ite.
Inspector Wright is about
right" in the above reproof, for
the majority of papers IN the
Chickasaw country are run and
managed by non-citizens. and we
all know how human it is to fall
in with our fellowman and what
we consider to be his grievance
especially when the fellowman and
his grievance" have an unques
toned majority. Every informed
person knows that the non-citizen
leaseholders and business men gen.
orally in the Chickasaw country
outnumber almost three to one the
Indians.
Do you seei-Indian Citizen.
Sister Smiser has always i'm
pressed us as being eminently fair
in giving both sides of questions,
but in this instance she allowed
only one surface of the manysidef
question to be exposed to view
perhaps because it suited her views
of Territory matters better. But
she should not have placed hel
Chickasaw press brothers under thu
ban in this way without givinl
their side, which was embraced il
the remainder of that same para
graph, as follows:
The Ardmoreite doesn't want t.
appear critical toward Mr.. Wright
but it would like to know what pa
pers on this side he reads. Thi
Office receives about all the paper
published in this district and W
are free to say that no origina
matter has appeared in any of ther
that can compare in sensationalisr
to the reports sent out from tn
Greek and Cherokee nations, wher
the exodus of non-eitizens in bal
tallions of 100 to 200 have been IT
ported. The only thugs whic
have appeared in the Ardmoreit
: tending to unduly excite the popu
, lar mind on this question have bee
, opinions of the Dawes commissio
! on hypothetical questions submit
ted to. them.

Ambushed and Put TO Rout Lieuten-

Manila, Jan. 21.-The escort OF
fifty men of Company G, Thirtieth
infantry, Lieut.. Ralston command
ing, which was ambushed near
Lipa, as already cabled, consisted
of fifty convalescents from the hos
pital who were going to rejoin their
regiment. The insurgents hid In
the bushes along the road and
opened fire on the pack train from
three sides.
The Americans, in addition to
their casualties, were compelled to
abandon the train which consisted
of twenty horses. The latter with
tkeir packs, all fell into the hands
of the insurgents, who pursued the
retreating escort for three miles
along the road, until the Ameri
cans were reinforced.

Now that the big battle has begun
the anxiety in London is intensified,
especially since Buller's ambiguous
message announcing the result of
Saturday S engagements. 1t is per
fectly plain that his success in ad-
vancing his lines somewhat was
counterbalanced by the fact that he
found the Beers prepared at every
point and able to infiict heavy loss
on his advance forces. London iis
now partially prepared for news Of
defeat and disaster.

A PROVISION of the Indian bill
makes an appropriation of $751;
600 for public schools in the Terri
tory. This provision was intro
duced by Representative Little of
Arkansas.a and will probably become
a law along with the general bill.
This has been one of the most
pressing' needs of our people and
its passage will be hailed with de-
light all oyer the Territory. The
establishment of a system of public
schools inf the country will mean
much to the non-citizen. Its in
fuence on the development of this
country will be great. Our people
have been sadly in need of this
benefeence, and when it becomes
an assured fact, one of the great.
est impediments to immigration
and development will have been
removed.
