SHAWNEE BREAD DANCE.
Another Large Party of Vinitians
Witness it Last Night.

Another large party, employing
several carriages and wagons, went
to the summit of the White Oak
hills last night to witness the
stomp or bread dance OF 5OO or
more Shawnee Indians. From ~
to 100 are dancing, or rather
stomping about, continuously day
and night, during which time a
weird chant is sung. When one
drops out another is ready to take
his place. The women OF the
party prepared large quantity OF
of bread-described by the white
man as being corn bread with
beans in it.
This is cut into little cubes and
serves as the food for the dancers
during the five days ofits progress.
The dance is an annual religious
festival or rite and is INDUCED in
because of traditional belief that
the Great Spirit will not furnish
food. or bread. so bourtifully in
the future unless proper thanks
are extended for His generosity
and kindness during the past
winter. This festival of thanks
giving is held at the present stage
of the fourth moon every year.
The ceremonies will come to a
close at the first appearance of the
sun above the horizon tomorrow
morning and. if the weather be
favorable, several parties will Wis
it the scene tonight.

ticed circular written by Percy
Wyly dated April 27, which | cup.
pose you have seen. He quotes
the mineral lease clause in the
present agreement. He says; 81
am unable to see any danger" yet
it is as plain as the English Ian
guage can express it; and he sees
no danger. My opinion is that he
can't read good, as is shown when
he quotes the 18th section Of the.
Curtis law. He says the secretary
of the interior is authorized to APP.
prove leases made and operated
!. under the Cherokee lease. The
copy of the Curtis bill No. 162,
section 13 reads thus, 4'And any
lease for any such Minerals other
wise made shall be absolutely
void. 1t means Cherokee lease
void. II | could see such law that

Mr.. WHY says this agreement
gives us a just settlement of our
affairs and fee simple title to our
sweet homes. | fipd nothing in
this agreement tha: gives any title
to the lands. Guaranty title only,
which is liable to involve endless
litigation. want the voters to
read section Is which is as follows:
upon the recommendation OF the
commission to the five civilized
tribes the secretary Of the interior
is hereby authorized at any time
before allotment to set aside and
reserve from allotment any Cher
okee lands-160 acres for town
sites. Look out Votersl Will 1T
be one or two railroads constructed
or be in process of construction
before allotment My opinion is
the country will be filled up with
railroads before allotment. This
alone is enough to defeat the pres
ent agreement.
While we were at Washington
formulating the present agreement
this same man Percy Wyly as
delegate left us return home before
reaching an agreement, bat be dis
patched back to us saying, "don't
agreeto anything unless the gov
ernment would agree TO give us a
guaranty title,' After hard work
we secured section 80 which reads;
"All conveyances shall be ap-
proved by the secretary Of the in
terror which shall serve as a re-
linquishment to the grantee of all
the right, title and interest of the
United States in and to the lands
embraced in his deed, and also as
a guaranty to him Of the title to
the land against all claims other
than those arising under the laws,
usages or customs of the tribe OF
the acts OF the tribal authorities" "
Now let us think. Why did
congress strike it off? Because it
give the Indian too good title.
Mr.. Wyly is a good man and ana
sorry to see that he is advising bis
peonle to vote for the agreement.
There is big scheme behind him
or he would not do so. Did. you
see an account two OF three weeks
ago where the railroad officials
were in Tanlequab2 Mr.. Wyly

ment If it is ratified lands will
be set aside for townsites Of l6O

BuIIhghters Afraid of Cows.

1t will probably not surprise our readers to hear that most Spanish bull fighters object to fighting cows. The real reason may, however. astonish them. A sportsmanlike objection to prosecuting a female animal has noth- ing whatever to do with 1t. The fact is that the average toreador Is sincerely afraid of a COW.
 And he has good reason. The cows of the half wild breed used for the arena are much quicker fin their movements than are the bulls. Their horns are more pointed and more formidable. They do not lower their heads to the ground, shut their eyes and charge like a locomotive upon the rails, but are alert and ready to follow every move ment of their prosecutors. Their war like tactics have been adapted not to blind, bovine frontal attacks, but to the strategy of active and cunning beasts of prey, of which the human bullhghter Is only a feeble mimic. If these cheap idols of the Spanish populace would face young and active wild cows which had just been robbed of their calves, they might perhaps forestall the butch CT, but they would, at any rate, do something to earn their laurels.-Pear- sons.

The Fruits of War.

Not long ago I visited the town of Novara, in northern Italy. There in a wheatfield the farmers have plowed up skulls of men until they have piled up pyramid 10 or F feet high. Over this pyramid some one has built a can. opy to keep off the rain. These were the skulls of young men of Savoy, Sar- dinia and Austria-men of IS to 35 years of age, peasants from the farms and workmen from the shops-who matter in which they had very little concern.
 Further on Frenchmen, Austrians and Italians fell together at Magenta, the hue of the blood that flowed out under the olive trees. Go over Italy as you will there is scarcely spot not crimsoned by the blood of France, scarcely q railway station without its pile of French skulls. You can trace them across to Egypt, to the foot Of the pyramids. You will find them in Germany-at Jena and Leipsic, at Lut- zen and Bautzen and Austerlitz. You will find them in Russia at Moscow, in Belgium at Waterloo. "A boy can stop a bullet as we'll as a man." said Napoleon. And with the rest are the skulls and bones of boys ''ere evening to be trodden like the grass. ."-Popular Science Monthly.

Queer Turkish Fish.

April 19 is the great fete day of "Ba- lukii," or place of fishes. This Is a small church situated outside the walls of Constantinople. and 1t enjoyed no particular reputation before the con- quest of Constantinople by the Turks. At the time of the invasion, however, monk was cooking some fish there when messenger came and told him that the Turks had entered Constanti- nople. The monk did not believe the story and said he would sooner believe that the half cooked fish would jump back into the water. As he spoke tae fish jumped back into the water, and since then the place has had a great reputation for its healing powers.
 A church has been built over the spring dedicated to Our Lady of the Fishes" and on this day regular pill grimage takes place from all parts of the town. Many sick are carried thith- CT, and many miraculous cures are re- ported. The truth of the story is proved by the presence In large marble lined tank In the church of the lineal de- scendants of the half cooked fish. Any one who does not believe has only to look Ill the water, and he will see them, brown on one side and white on the other, swimming about at their ease.
