THE CHRISTMAS DINNER.

In spite of the fact that the word
dyspepsia means literally bad cook, it
will not be fair for many To lay the
blame on the cook if they begin the
Christ mas dinner with little appetite
and end it with dist reSS or nausea. 1t
may not be fair for any to do that-lct
us hope that SO far for the sake of the
cook. The disease dyspepsia indicates
Il bad stomach. that is weak stomach

to Hoods sarsaparilla. 1t gives the
stomach vigor and tone. C Iles dyspep
STA, creates appetite, and makes eltir G

The lecture will be for the benefit Of

Let us now see whether this I'M
uttered Indian or the scholarly
Mr.. Farrar, is right.
"All leases shall be made by
The secretary of the interior; and
any lease for any such minerals
otherwise made shall be absolute

the Curtis law, 18th section.
You see, then, don't your that
the Curtis law wipes all these old
Cherokee leases out of existence;
because they we're not made by

at Tahlequah Monday morning
and, with several attorneys from
this city, will leave for the CAPT
tai tomorrow. The docket for
this term is not as heavy as usual.

argument and summing up of a
case against two fullblood Indians
who were charged with a heinous
offense. The Indians we're con-
victed, but the verdict did not
provide for capital punishment.
Because OF the peculiar actions of
the prosecuting witness toward the
Indians after the offense vas said
to have been committed and other
little incidents which sprung up
at the trial, Judge Gill refused to
sentence the men to Imprisonment
for life p~refering to more carefully
weigh the testimoney. The men
were ordered brought to this city
in May for sentence.

the treaty. The more pronounced

will be the chance to make a iav-

The report that has gained cur

leading fullblood was favoring the
treaty and urging his followers to
vote for it. 1t now transpires that
the report is absolutely false and
that Mr.. Sanders will vote against
the treaty, and work against it.

When congress passed the
amended treaty during the clos
ing hours of last congress, it failed
to strike from that document the
right of the voters of the Chero.
kee nation to reject or to ratify it..
The right to vote upon it presup-
poses non-interference on the part
of the Dawes commission or any
one else. The presumption natur-
ally was that the Cherokees could
express their honest convic-
ton at the polls as to its mer-
its. The idea of coercion is an
after thought, and is unAmeri
can, and repulsive to every lover
of liberty even when applied to
an Indian tribe. The honor Of the
government has been impugned
by her own officials. The Chero-
k ees are freemen and not slaves,
and will vote accordingly.

board engine of the Brooklyn was

collected distinctly that he warned
Cook as the enemy approached that
they were going to ram him.
He was closely questioned as to the
order which went below ito stand by
to ram" He said he supposed the
captain had given the order, but was
not certain.
Apparently Conflicting Statements.
His attention was next called to the
letter to the senate in which he said
the turn was made to avoid blanketing
the fire of his own ships, also to the
statement in his examination in chief,
that he had not turned to port because
to do SO would have brought his ship
into dangerous proximity with the en-
emy's vessels and exposed her to a
positive torpedo attack or ramming.
The One Great Reason.
Now" said Lemly, there appear
to be three reasons why you made the
turn. Why did you make that turn?"
"As | already stated there is an
other very much more important rea-
son which you have not asked, and
that was that the ship might continue
in action and be at the enemy as we
did. That was the controlling one of
all the reasons. There were several
other reasons we could perhaps con-
jure up about it."
Did you have each of these vari-
Gus reasons in mind at the time?"
Probably ali of them and others. -

fore noon the party with the exception
of Drake returned. The latter went
to farmhouse where a Mr.. Caney liv-
ed and told them he wanted to borrow
a gun with which to shoot a squirrel
which he had treed A boy whose
first name was Buck gave him a gun
and went with him to get he game.
Upon reaching the tree where Drake
said the squirrel was, he took off his
coat, hung 1t on a limb and told the
boy to go around on the other side of
the tree and watch for it. This the
boy did but happening to turn around
he saw Drake with the muzzle of the
gun at his temple. The boy told him
not TO do that and Drake replied,
Yes l WILL goodby." At that instant
he discharged the gun, tearing his
head off. Assistance was at once sum-
moned but the suicide was beyond all
earthly help.
Drake was a single man and leaves

with whom he staid when in town. He
claimed this place as his home and
was laborer by occupation.
