REMEDY WITH CONGRESS.
Judge BradIey's Opinion in Oklahoma
Land Case.

In his decision. mentioned in The Star OF
yesterday, denying the application of Lone
Wolf on behalf of himself and others Of
the eonfederated tribes of kiowa. Apache
and Conanche Indians. for an injunction to
restrain the Secretary of the Interior. the
commissioner of the general land office and
the commissioner Of Indian affairs from
orening up for settlement about 100000
acres of the land Of the Indians. located in
Oklahoma, Justice Bradley held that if the
act of June 8, 1900. Is yiolative OF the
Treaty of 1853 the remedy rests with Con-
gress. not the judiciary. He said that
the right OF the Indians to the reservation
Is a possessory one only; that the wrong,
81 any, threatened by the execution of the
act of June 6. 1900. is a wrong to the
tribe as tribe. and that no individual
member will suffer any injury which will
rot be shared in common by the other
members The decision declares that the
Evening star., 1901-06-21
suit cannot be maintained by members of
the tribe as individuals

suit cannot De maintained ny members or
the tribe as individuals
Justice Bradley holds that these Indians
are the pupils wards of the nation;
that the duty of providing for their MAIN
tenance. civilization and education, and of
protecting and caring for them rests upon
the federal government, and is committed
to its Legislative political branch
The court further holds that the ques-
ton whether three-fourthS of the adult
male Indians signed the agreement. etc,
was presented to Congress; that the ratifi-
cation by Congress Is necessarily a finding
that the agreement was assented to by the
requisite number of Indians, and that there
was no false or fraudulent representation
or interpretation and that this decision by
Congress is conclusive upon the judicial
tribunals. He further holds that an act
of Congress and treaty are, under the
Constitution Of the United States, upon an
equal footing; that an act of Congress win
repeal a prior inconsistent treaty and that
a treaty will repeal q prior inconsistent act
of Congress: that the making and enforcing
of treaties are under our Constitution COM
mitted to the political branch Of the gov
ernment. and that the judicial tribunals Of

force treaty stipulations,' or to grant re-

FACED pEATH MANY HINES.
Lad Who Has Been in Imminent Peril
Frequently, but Still Lives.

Edward Dempsey, son of a once
noted oarsma'4, has been near deaths
door thirteen times, but the portals are
still closed to him. He is 10 years old,
and has walked hand in hand with
death in every year of his life and never
tlinched. Saturday morning lie met
with his thirteenth accident, but that
he has passed the hoodoo number in
safety is affirmed by the physicians at
the Jefferson hotel. z
The boy was riding his bicycle down
Chestnut street when lie ran into a
trolley car at Eighth street, striking his
head against the iron part of the fender
on the rehr of the car. Leading his
wheel he walked to the hospital. not
knowing until he arrived there that he
had received a fractured skull as the
result of the accident. The doctors say
he will recover. He cheerfully bears
his confinement and seems concerned
only in the baseball scores.
Edwards father, Patrick Dempsey,
who is now employed in hotel on
Eleventh street, below Chestnut. was
prominent years ago rs an oarsman and
coach. When the family lived at Falls
of Schuylkill some years back the boy
was concerned in more accidents than
a hospital ambulance. Once he shot
the falls of Wlssahickon creek In a frail
rowboat and it was common occur
renee for him to fall overheard while
rowing and swim ashore.
This remarkable lad has been the vic
tim of u gasoline accident was hit by
trolley cars galore, chased by the an
CRY subjects of his practical jokes and
in many other ways made the hero of
Incidents of which he was too modest
to keep account. But the boy survived
his thirteenth accident, probably the
most serious of all, and the physicians
are certain that he will be ready for an
other one next year.-Phlladelphia

Care OF the Refrigerator.

Nothing is more important In tho
household than keeping the refrigera-
tor free from offensive odors. It should
stard in light, airy place. and be kept
scrupulously clean. A good housekeep--
er will have her refrigerator cleaned at
!least once a week. This Is best accom-.
plished In the morning, before the Ice
man comes. The food, Ice and shelves
should all be taken out; the shelves
washed In hot water and soap. to which
half cupful aqua ammonia has been
added; wipe thoroughly with a cloth,
and IL possible set 1t In the sun to dry.
Next the ice compartment, the walls
and bottom Of the refrigerator are thor
oughly washed. wiped and dried. Then
a wire rod run down the water pipe.
and some of the ammonia water. poured
down info 1t; and last, the water pan.
underneath should be well washed and
dried. The refrigerator, IL time allows,
should be left open for an hour or so.
The shelves, ice and food may then be
put back. II this Is done regularly once
week the refrigerator or ice box will
always be sweet aud clean. The cellar
is generally used more or less In keep
ing food. It should. therefore. fire.
quently be Inspected, kept clean and
well aired. and. II possible. white.
washed once or twice q year. A nusty,
damp and ill-ventilated cellar is danger
GUS to health.-.Mrs. Geslne Lemcke. In

MIX from Farrow Cow.

The milk Of cows that have long
passed the season Of greatest produc-
tion. which is soon after narrowing, is
much richer In butter fnts than that
which the same cows give soon after
dropping their calves, says an ex-
change. Ifthey had not been bred, the
milk also usually contains more OF ,the
albuminoids also. For this reason It is
harder to digest. and, as cows milk Is
at best unsuited to the stomach Of q
young infant, that from new milk
cows, where procurable, is always to
be preferred. The milk of the COW Is
too rich in fats. causing the infant ia
throw 1t up soon after taking guam
tity. 1t may be improved by diluting
it with warm water made quite sweet
with pure sugar. Even farrow cows
milk thus prepared may be used with
safety II the infant is obliged to suck
1t through tube, through which it car
only get a small amount Mt a time.

During the recent trip through the

form of life to be found anywhere en-

watching this fowl, which is found in
some of the shallow lakes, and the
chief point of interest to me was the
startling stupidity displayed. They call
them shags, | believe, out west. They
generally squat on stumps or logs in
the lake and watch for the smaller fish
that play around the surface of the
water. They are fairly clever In catch
ing what they want. and they throw
out their bills with considerable preci-
sion when they dig for game, and they
never get to eat what they catch until
they have fed Mt least one and maybe
more than one member of another kind
of water fowl. Whenever shag be-
gins to catch fish a long-legged water
hen will take a place Immediately be-

and gets it. Without any show of re-
sentiment and without turning around

Some one has said that "paint and
putty are like charity, they cover up al
multitude Of SINS" or faults would
have been u better word, as hot all
faults deserve to be called sins. When
the spring rains IRE over, and the wood
is dry. but before the flies get plenty,
is good time to paint farm buildings,
carts and tools. II is not necessary
to have skilled painter to do all this II
economy is to be studied. The ready
mixed paints, properly used, will last
as long, look as well, and preserve the
wood as well rs those mixed by the
painter, and any hired man or smart
boy can soon learn to spread them, not
as well as the man who learned tire
trade, but well enough to cover the
buildings. When we first tried such q
Job we received these directions which
helped us much: Keep the paint well

The white grub, which often in dry

which is not too hard, is the larva OF
what is known as the June beetlepin

1t often is SO abundant as to make 1t
necessary to pillow up fields where they
have destroyed all the grass, and even
then 1t is difficult to destroy the grub
But we have seen it stated that the

Of them are killed. As one Of their ia
