MADE MISTAKES
Interior Department to Review the
Dawes Commissions Work.

Some very important disclosures
are expected 10 the interior de-
partment in the near future in the
way Of reviewing much Of the work
of the Dawes commission in the
Indian Territory, says a Washing
ton dispatch.
The department officials have
become satisfied that in the work
of enrolling the Indian citizens of
the five nations the Dawes com
mission has made many mistakes.
Possibly these were inadvertenl or
through haste, but nevertheless
they appear to be so fragrant that
the department will Call for recon
sideration of many names recon-
mended for enrolment believing
that persons have been omitted
who were Justly entitled to citizen
ship, and that others were put on
the rolls without proper q~ualifca-
tons.
Under the last Indian appropri-
alton bill the amount provided for
the Dawes commission was divid-
ed, at least to this extent, many of
the employees, such as law clerks,
were assigned to the control of the
commissioner of Indian affairs for
the purpose of taking direct charge
of a part of the commissioners
business. The commission here
tofore has been largely a law unto
itself, although its work has been
nominally revised by the secretary
OF the interior, that official gsDer-
ally has approved all papers sub
mitted in a very prefunctory way.
Recently, however, the auditing
officers provided by the new legis-
lation have had more leisure and
more opportunities to examine the
work OF the commission, and they
have found ample cause for hold
ing up certain of the recommended
tons of the commission, especially
in the matters Of tribal rolls.
Evidence has been secured that
the hearings Of claimants has been
and often partial. 1t is be-
lieved that in the near future the
secretary will cause a sweeping re-
examination of a number OF docu-
ments now before him for approval
The department officials are conf
dent that great injustice has been
done in many cases and full OPP
portunity for the reconsideration
will be ordered.

VIM. Sleen and Sylvester S. Smith

through her attorneys, Turner &
Thompson, secured an order for their
custody. When Mrs. Smith aud a
friend went after the little mes it is
said that Stcen attacked them with
an ak, upon Smiths order.

These were not manr., for Bessie was
only II years old, and was not yet trusted
by her parents to expend much none at

play upon the plano, and the desire at last
became SO overpowering that she went in
to the parlor and opened the instrument.
The little girl had. with infinite pains.
contrived to. learn two pieces" which she
usually executed with a jerky movement
Of her right hand, and a left hand that for
got to keep up. and SO she made dreldful
discords. But under the Influence of the
chocolate; bonhon she sat down and ran
her fingers lightly over the keys. producing
such exquisite harmony, that she was filled
with amazement at her own performance.
That was the prelude. however. TIL next

than usual: the Senator's face wore an Of

her fingers as II she still wanted to play
the piano.
Mrs. Bostwick managed to set them all
seated. although her husband had broken
into another aria: and then the maid

The Senator was not at all sure he would
not go crazy himself presently, % he
slipped away from the turmoil, and, CATCH

from the house.
