Beautiful

From the intermingling Of the white

tory there has grown up race nota-
BILE for the beauty and grace of it's
women. The girls of the Indian terri
tory are no more the wild, untamable,
dusky beauties Of early Indian fiction
than they are the wretched creatures
found among some of the tribes today.
They are to all intents and purposes
on the same plane with white women
OF education and refinement, except
that the strain of wild. strong Indian
blood in their veins gives them a tinge
or richer color, a brighter eye, a more
lissome grace than their white sisters
possess. Reckoned in fractions Of
blood, these Indian beauties are more
Caucasian than aboriginal American.
All of them, however, are Indians.
politically and socially; they hold
nrmly to their membership in the
tribes. Many of them are one-quarter
or one-eighth, or even one-sixteenth
or one-thirty-second Indian; but the
red strain Is stronger and shows, il
not in some lingering richness of color
or in the molding Of the face, at least
in an all but indefinable fascination
and grace, the heritage of forest
people. Among them one may find per-
feet blondes, with the Indian strain
still salient and palpable. And al

whites, they look without concern up
on the destruction of tribal customs
and the thinning out of old blood To
this last they even contribute, for so
seldom does one of them marry an

mented upon in the territory as re-
markable. Before the middle of the
last century a Cherokee woman one

was frightened at his white skin and

he was fascinated by her beauty and

finally gained her consent to marry
him according to tribal customs then
in vogue. This hunter and his squaw

raised a half-breed child, who was a
great curiosity to the redskins. As
years sped by other hunters invaded
the domain Of the five tribes OF the
Indian territory and married other
dark-skinned beauties. Intermarriage
in the Cherokee, Creek. Choctaw,
Chickasaw, and Seminole tribes has
fiourished to such an extent within
the last quarter century that the full
blood element Is now on the verge Of
extinction. The old men of the tribes
are becoming alarmed and have passed
laws against intermarriage. Some OF
these laws are very severe, almost
prohibitive, in fact. The young Indian
women object to these laws, because
they do not want, as a rule, to marry
the men Of their own tribes. The
Chickasaws are the strictest regarding
intermarriage. A law recently placed
on their statute books requires any
white man applying for a license to
marry a Chickasaw girl first, to pro-
duce evidence that he has resided in
the Chickasaw nation two years, next
to furnish credentials as to his good
character and third. to pay $1,000 for
the marriage license. or course, the
girl has and sometimes takes the priv
ilege OF clipping, at the cost of losing
her right in the tribal lands and
money, and of disgracing herself in
the eyes of her relatives. Her head
right Is something worth considering.
right in the Chickasaw nation Is
valued at from $1,000 to $4,000. The
intermarrage laws of all the four ma
tons named are about the same, ex-
cepting that the Chckasaw nation
charges 81 900 for license, while the
others only ask $40. There is good
reason for these laws. Many fortune
hunters, attracted by the wealth Of the
Indian maidens, have in the past mar
ried into the tribes. gained control of
large tracts of land, fOstered outlaws,
and raised bad families. There were
few happy marriages, and not until the
wise men of the tribes met and passed
an act making every white man show
his credentials before the license was
isnueu, WAS There IL DetleTHlent OF tncSe
conditions. The character Of each ap-
plicant was carefully examined before
he was admitted. For several years
thereafter respectable and Industrious
white men married into the tribes and
their children married whites. 1t was

A COLONIAL ROSE

De Rochambeau came riding down
On his prancing charger through the

with careworn wrinkle and weary frown
His brow was shaded
And she, with gesture debonair,
Threw him a rose from her powdered
hair
The fairest maid Of Washington Square,
In gown brocaded.
Fled for moment war and vile
AS he caught the rose with courtly smile,
And thought Of a maid Of France, the

His glance had met her
"A maid of France, of an ancient race,
A master painted her then, a face
Whose piQuant charm and dainty grace
Let none forget her.
And again he saw the old chateau
Where the roses hung In garlands low
When he rode away, long years ago
She died soon after.
All, roguish maid of Washington Square,
When the gray old Frenchman saw you
fair,
You little knew why he fingered there
To hear your laughter!

When handsome Jack Orion an
nounced his engagement to Marian
Harding to his sister, sshe being a dis
Greet woman. only lifted an eyebrow,
and asked him if he was quite sure
his choice was wise one. The girl
belonged to very different world from
the gay, fashionable, pleasure-seek-
ing one in which they were such con-
spicuous figures. Still, Jack was old
enough to know his own tastes and
mind, and when all is said, a man
marries for himself and not his sis
ter. So she forbore to say any of the
nasty things mans people usually do
when he marries out of his set. and
merely laid very tender hand upon
his shoulder as she asked over again

she so bad as all that! Don't. Only
fancy having to live in the house with

do it in peace. You are not keyed up
to the situation"
But Orion laughed with the fatuous
self complacency of the newly engaged,
and went off to his demure little
Puritan sweetheart.
In truth the girls unlikeness to all
the other women he knew had been the
first thing that attracted him to her.
He had met at a big crush at fash
donable house, where she had been
present by virtue of being far away
cousin Of the hostess, and in her sim
pie white frock, among all the glitter,
and spangles, and flash of jewels, and
bold display of white, bare shoulders
and arms, she had made him think of
a wild flower suddenly transplanted
amidst the overblown roses in a con-
servatory. Then somebody had asked
her to sing, and she had startled even
that blase assemblage with a voice
so pure, SO sweet, and true, and with
such passion of expression in its
tones that it had made the simple
ballad she sung seem like a cry from
heart to heart. There was a minutes

Tho Atom Still an Abstraction.

A writer in McClure's Magazine says
that the atom of today is still a scien-
tific abstraction. Many facts have
been brought to light that make it ap-
pear certain that matter is not con-
tinuous-is not capable of infinite sub
division. Dalton, the Quaker school
master Of Manchester, was the first one
to bring the atom down to earth and
make it a useful idea. The atomic
theory, proposed by Dalton in the early
years Of this century, lives today, and
is stronger than 1t has ever been, not
withstanding the efforts that have been
made to show that it is built upon
sand. It has been and is today an
extremely useful theory. Whether it
will always continue to be so is anoth-
er question and one that need not
bother us.

SfMINOLfS IN FLORIDA


The remnant If the once-powerful
tribe OF Seminole Indians comes in for
a deal OF sympathy among the people
who have taken up their homes in
Florida, writes Miami, Florida. cor
respondent of the Chicago News Rec
ORD. Those who are supposed to know
say there are not more than GOO If
them left, and they are hidden awav
IN the everglades, very seldom maxi
ing their appearance among the white
settlers. That they do not increase in
number is owing to the fact, so it is
SAID, that the ravages of disease among
chlloren have sadly thinned their
ranks. They are unable to understand
the nature Of many of their Affections
40 not know how to treat them. and
IN consequence the race in Florida
threatens to become extinct.
The tribe was originally a vagrant
oHshoot Of the Creeks. They gave
great trouble to the early settlers of
Georgia and Florida, and after a tedi-
Gus war an attempt was made to re-
move the remains of the tribe to In
dian Territory. This, however. was
an undertaking never fully ACCOMPLISH
ed. For years they hid themselves in
the dense foliage of tine everglades.
In recent years the interior department
has endeavored to get title to some
Florida land with a view to turning 1t
over to the Seminoles, but up to a

ter is still under consideration. The
legislature of Florida at one time had
before it a measure to turn over some
land to the red men and their families
but this has not yet been done, so that
to-day they are running as wild as
at the time their warrior fathers set
foot in the region.
j. S. Frederick, civil engineer of
Miami, tells interesting stories of his
experience with the Seminoles and
their families. He has occasion once
in awhile to make his way by boat far
into the interior of the southern part
of the state. The boat is tied up to
the banks of some stream while ex-
plorations of the everglades are being
made. Frederick has some knowledge
of the Seminole tongue and has been
able to gather small numbers of them
about his campfire. On one occasion,
he relates, his wife, who accompanied
him on the trip, was so much taken
with the bright faces and sparkling
eyes of the little Seminoles that she in
duced him to invite company of them
into the sloop to take dinner with tn.
surveying party. The commissariat
was we'll stocked and about a dozen
of the little red boys and girls sat
down at the table. Frederick says they
came near cleaning him out--in fact,
the larder was empty when the young
guests took their departure.
Frederick says the Indians live most
ly from the products of the hunt and
the gathering of roots and herbs, which
they trade at the stores within reach
of their homes. Like all Indians, they
are fond of colored goods and snowy
articles, and buy literally of such
things. He says that while lingering
about the trading places they are scru-
pulously honest.

the body very tightly. The manyetas
are very difficult to buy, and l was at
first puzzled to account for this. After
time l came to understand that the
belts, being SO small, were extremely
difficult to get off. The poor men re-

good deal of oil before they could
wriggle out of them. These manyetas
are very heavy, and the weight and
