AFTER CREEK INDIAN LANDS.
Indians Protected by Provision for APP

Indians Protected by Provision for APP
pzovsI of Sale in Washington.
Washington, June 11@Captain
Schoenfeldt. in charge OF the Union
agency of the FIVE civilized tribes in
the Indian territory, says that large
Western states to secure possession oe
the lands of the Creek Indians, which
are soon to be placed on the market
by the Greek tribe, who have recently
entered into treaty with the govern
ment, for the opening of their lands.
and who are taking their lands in
severalty and disposing of the surplus.
He says that the accommodations at
Muskogee are too small for the enor-
nous influx of strangers who want to
purchase lands from the Indians. The
majority of the strangers are from
Kansas, Nebraska, and Iowa. The
agent SAYS the lands which the Indians
will be allowed to dispose of are of
first-c1ass quality and worth on an
average SIS an acre. The Indians
have in several instances offered to
sell them at much below their value,
and there is general expectation that
a great deal of money is to be made
out of these lands He points out that
spectators are overlooking the very
serious fact that all sales of lands SO
negotiated must first be approved by
the secretary of the interior, and that
few, if any, contracts will be approved
that do not represent fair valuation
of the lands, according to market
standard.

Wichita, June I1.-All the insurance

Mrs. Nation in Wichita has been paid.
The loss aggregated about 5000. This
is much more than people generally
thought. The insurance companies in
insuring glass still put in a proviso
that The policy is void against the de-

President Zelaya aud the other
officers of my government are
perfectly satisfied with the terms
OF the protocol, signed by myself
and the representatives of Costa
Rica, with Secretary Hay, last
year. We hold that that proto~
col is still binding. The fact
that it is based on the Hay
Pauncefote treaty, which has
lapsed, does not, III our opinion,
lnvalidate the binding nature of
the document. This being the
case, we hold that there is no
chance for the. Colon bian govern
ment to come in and that the
Panama Canal is barred from
consideration. The signing of
the protocol by the U. S , in our
opinion, commits the 3. S.
government to the Nicaragua
route. Even if this were not so
we have every confidence that
the .. S., OF the two routes,
would prefer to build the MIC

of the discovery OF this route be>

Justice B1rnard. of the Supreme

the prisoner, which are equally
applicable to all educated crooks.
He said "You have had all the
advantages Of family, education,

ion of a minister of the gospel;
you have had experience among
many different classes of society
in different states; and there was
no excuse for you to undertake
the fraudulent methods and
schemes shown by the evidence
IN this case, to rob the credulous,
unwary and inexperienced. You
could have made an honest liv>
ing, and given value for every
dollar received, had you not con-
ceived the idea OF getting some
thing for nothing, under the
pretense OF performing a service
for others. You went to work
Shire wdly and systematically to
deceive people and to make
them condne in your honesty,
wisdom aud power, by SO mix

to pass it all off for genuine.
You we'll knew, as l must be-

you were not able to make good

wife of the Secretary of private
circles, for several days past than
matters Of state. Illness and
death are two things which
never fail to absorb the interest
of those concerned, and In the
cases of persons of such prom,
inence, all are concerned. Had
the death of Mrs. Mckinley
been announced, there would
have been no public surprise,
but, as though to emphasize the
adage. at is always the unex-
pected that happens, Mrs. Nc
K1nIey, who has been an invalid
for years, rallied and it is now
hoped, will recover, and Mrs.
Gage who had enjoyed robust
health until she took the grip,
as a result of exposure during
the Inauguration ceremonies at
the East front Of the Capitol,
died. Brief funeral services were
held this morning at the resi-
dence of Secretary Gage, after
which the Secretary and his
daughter left for Chicago, with
the remains. Mrs. Gage was
unquestionably another added
to the long list of prominent
victims to the 4th of March In
auguration day, and her death
will doubtless serve to increase
the agitation in favor Of the
sensible reform Of making In
auguration day late enough in
the season to be safe for the OUT
door exercises, which have kill
ed so many persons and will con-
tinue to kill when the weather
is inclement as it nearly always
is, until changed.

Childhood Of Great Men.

In a statistical investigation
Of the early life OF httv great
men of the present century, It
was found that while they are
absent minded, generally speak
ing, their memories are very
strong III the things they are
interested in. In childhood they
seem to be more imaginative
than average children. 1t is
generally said that great man
owes his success to his mother S
influence, but there are many
exceptions. They were influence
ed much by some one person
and the mothers place was
often supplied by that of an
aunt or relative. The child born
of parents in the prime Of ply
steal life probably has the better
chance of greatness, for the
average age OF the fathers when
the great man>chlld was born
was about thirty-elght, and that
of the mothers thirty. The
average number of children III
the families was six. Eleven or

Bible were sold by the British and

This is an increase of million over
the sale of the year before. Sixty
thousand ''parts" of the Testament
were printed and bound for the use

for this number the sale of Bibles in
England has remained for two years
at 2,000,000 copies. The missionaries
are responsible for the additional
million in the output. Most of the
books were printed in China and in
Chinese characters. Many were

THE deplorable history Of vio-
lence incident to strike move
ments among coal miners is be-
ing repeated 10 a degree in this
field, following the long-contin-
ued, unsuccessful efforts of the
agitators to persuade the thrifty
miners of Hopkins county to
turn against the conditions which
have made possible their present
contented and prosperous condi-
tion. Inflamed by the defeat of

has been predicted by the repre-
sentatives Of the Union-from

olence has been prophesied, prom
ised. Monday violence came
again; this time in Hopkins
county, near one Of the smaller
and most easily accessible mines
of the county.
The sherilf's proclamation was
defied and two deputy sheriffs
and . posse of three fired upon
by a body Of union agitators and
miners marching toward Carbon
dale mines. Two Of the attack
ing party are dead. 1t is deplor-
able that clash should have oc-
cured. The trouble is regretted
on all sides, but all around can
be heard expressions of commen-
dation for the brave little band
Of officers who stood their ground
before a hundred men who defied
the law and tried to override its
representatives. Whatever else
may be said it has been demon
strated that interference with

the free workingmen of Hopkins

PEARLS OF THOUGHT.

To be great is to be misunderstood.
The dust we tread upon was once
alive.
Literature is the thought of think
ing souls.
Property has its duties as well as
its rights.
Clever men are good. but they are
not the best.
Silence is as deep as eternity, speech
Is as shallow as time.
What strange thing is mani and
what stranger is woman!
Time dissipates to shining ether
the solid angularity of facts.
All who joy would win must share
it-happiness was born a twin.
Some people are so fond of i'll luck
that they run half way to meet it.
There is nothing so powerful as
truth-and often nothing SO strange.
There is no refuge from confession,
but suicide; and suicide is confession.
A blessed companion is a book-a
book that fifty chosen is a lifelong
friend.
That is the best government which
desires to make the people happy, and
knows how to make them happy.
Blessed is the healthy nature; it is
the coherent, sweetly cooperative. not
incoherent, self distracting, self de-
structive one!
Adversely is sometimes hard on a
man; but for one man who can stand
prosperity there are hundred that
will stand adversely.
Government is trust, and the Of
ficers of the government are the trus-
tees, and both the trust and the trust
tees are created for the benefit of the
people,
