kioWA INDIANS NOT RESTLESS.
officiaf Denial of Sensational Re-
pOrt-Tribal Affairs.

Washington, May e.-"There ia
absolutely no truth in the reports
that the Kiowa Indians, in okla
noma, are restless" said Assistant
indian Commissioners Tanner. 1.-THE
newspaper reports say the Indians
ara in destitute circumstances. They
are not. The department has for
tue past three or four years given
them gratuity of s1OO, 900. Besides
this, they have their grass lands.
That means that they receive a GER
tain amount of money each year
from the rental of their surplus
lands, which are used for grazing
purposes.
IAN investigation is being made.
We hope to find out the persons who
started the report, and their reason
for doing so.''

Ebery man makes a fule of himself

git lost once in five vars, an he iumps
