A CHRISTIAN CALL.
To the People and Ministers Of All the
Christian Churches.

To the People and Ministers Of All the
Christian Churches.
The following is a call issued by the
ministers at Ada for a convention to
be held at Holdenvllle, |. T., on No
vember % to devise some plan where
by congress may right the wrong done
to the children who are starving intel
lectually in this fair land:
To the ministers of all Christian
churches, Greeting:
At the earnest solicitation of the
members of the executive committee
of the Chickasaw Territorial associa-
tion. and from a burning sense of our
own Christian duty and obligations to
the one hundred and fifty thousand
school children in the Indian Terri
tory, that are growing up in ignorance,
which we conceive to be one of chari-
ty and duty,
We understand the conditions
that exist here to be as follows;-
Congress has, in all it's legislation, pro-
vided us no free school system, and
so far as we are able to ascertain, 1t
has not seriously contemplated the
establishment of any such necessary
and benifcent institutions for our
friendless people.

adopted In 1897 the revenue and roy
alties derived from the coal in the
Chickasaw and Choctaw nations were
guaranteed to the Indian children of
those nations for school and eJuca.
tional purposes. Even this partial
means Of public education was strick
en- down by the adoption of what is
known as the supplemental treaty, for
that instrument provides that the coal
mines belonging to these nations shall
be sold within the near future, there
by destroying the very source that fed
these Indian schools.
Now, in view of the fact that we
have no school fund or means TO pro
vide for one, and in view of the fur.
ther fact that these vastly rich coal
fields in the Choctaw nation are soon
to be sold, we the undersigned minis
ters Of the gospel OF Christ most ear
nestly call, appeal and beg every min
lister of the gospel living In the Indian
Territory irrespective Of denomina.
tlon or creed, to meet In Holdenville
Indian Territory. on Tuesday. Nov. %
1902, there and then TO discuss and
evolve some plan whereby congress.
can be induced to provide some means
to assist the intellectually starving
children Of our land.
To the end that the Christian mer
and women Of the Indian Territor,
may be aroused from their seeming in
difference to our blasting wants o
education, we appeal to each and ev
cry minister to preach a sermon OF
Education in the Indian Territory,

Desert to Bloom Like the CantsIOupe.

The Pacific Rural Press speaks very pleasantly of the work to convert the desert into a garden. IL says:
 One of the most interesting things We saw last summer was the new life al Indio. which is below sea level, in the Colorado desert side Of River side county We found there host of new settlers who proposed 10 make the desert bloom like the cantaIonpe. and they were doing well al lt li is now announced by a Chicago firm Of handlers Of California fruits and vege- tables that they expect 10 have =" cars Of Coachella caDtalOupes ready for shipment May 20 10 June l. They also announce that they have made arrangements with the Southern Pa cifc Railroad 10 make up solid train loads of five cars each. and run them as a second section 10 the regular overland passenger train. For a new settlement the Indio region is speedy. They grow the Rocky Ford melon and ripen it about a month earlier than Rocky Ford does Their pro duct goes to all the small places at the East. even to the refrigerators of the ocean steamships for their hrst table passengers. This is good busi- ness for Indio and for California.

 Tuesday a bill was sent to Ari' yona's delegate in congress asking that sl .000 GOO be given hy the na- sional government to partially pay for the work.
 The site proposed for the great dam is on the Salt River. tn the mountains. about sixty miles north east of Phoenix. at the point where the river. leaving the Tonto basin. enters a deep gorge in the solid rock. The gorge Is but 200 feet wide al the level os the stream. and for fhe first hundred feet upward the walls are perpendicular. In the pre- liminary reconnaissance bedrock was located al an average depth of twenty-five feet below the stream bed. IL Is proposed 10 build a masonry dam which will be 900 feet high above low water. and allow ing for wasteWays twenty feet deep, will create a reservoir iS0 feet deep. The dam will be $50 feet long on ion. The wastewAys on each side of the dam are calculated 10 pass. with out overlapping the dam. the great es; known flood. that of 1891. when the discharge during part of one day vas equal to one-hah of that running over Niagara Falls

SOME NEW SLEEVES.

At this moment. says the Chicago
Chronicle, all the sleeves are big be-
tween the elbow and the wrist and
they are big in a new way. The bal
loon is fashionable and so is the man
dolin, which is slashd at the back with
the end pulled out in some fashion.
Another sleeve that is smart is the
Robespierre, which has a cuff turned
straight back above the elbow and
setting out in very brusque fashion,
as though it were a piece of armor.
But the latest sleeve, the sleeve
which they call the Newport sleeve, is
one which is shaped exactly like wa
termelon. In certain poses 1t looks
like an egg, for it is pointed at one
end. This sleeve begins at the elbow
and ends at the wrist.
The small part is at the elbow and
the big part is at the wrist. 1t is made
out of a melon-shaped piece of silk,
which is gathered at the elbow and
fastened on to any elbow sleeve At
the wrist it is laid in little side plaits
and fastened to a deep cuff of face..
The new London sleeve is little
different. Like the Newport, it be-
gins at the elbow, but it is a &de-
plated affair throughout and it is not
gathered into a cuff at the wrist
To make it in an amateurish way
take two yards of chiffon side plated
and gather or lay this chiffon upon a
band of silk ribbon one inch wide; let
the ribbon he just long enough TO go
around your arm at the elbow. Sew
this to your elbow sleeve and let the
chiffon hang. 1t will make a sort OF
angel sleeve, which will be very be-
coming to your whole arm and will sci
off your hand beautifully.

BURNED AN AUTOMOBILE.
COstIicst Machine I'm the World De-

CostIicst Machine I'm the World De-
strOyed Through CareIessness.
Through the carelessness of French
chauffeur the costliest automobile in
the world lies a mass of unrecogniza-
BILE ruin in a ditch near Pleasure Bay,
N. ]. Conhagration and explosion de-
stroyed every vestige of the magnifi-
cent machine Saturday night, with the
exception of the motor. which was
found intact in eighteen inches of wa
ter.
The vehicle was Panhard- Levassor
of forty horse power, recently import
ed from France and fitted since it's ar
rival in this country with an alumni
mum body. 1t was the first machine
of its kind so equipped and it's total
cost was $4,000. This cost has been
equalled only by the reputed sale price
of Baron H. de Rothschild's Panhard
racer to r. A. Rainey of New York,
who will be pleasantly remembered as
one of the automobiles who visited
Savannah last winter and who is ex-
pected to return next winter. The
woodwork and upholstery were burned
to ashes and the aluminium was melted
into Jumps like solder
The estimated value of the engine
do ~ now SldlluS Is 4o,UUU, so lnat the
loss to the owner Is clearly SIS, 900. The
automobile, which was one of the
handsomest ever seen, was the prop
erty of a member of the summer colo
ny at Monmouth Beach 1t was of
Tonneau type, seating five persons,
besides two in the chauffeur's seat, and
was finished in dark green.
The cause of the accident can be as
cribed only to the recklessness or care
lessness of the driver. 1t is generally
believed that he was out on frolic
with two friends and did not give the
attention to the machine that he
ought to have done. His story Is
that the moon and stars being OBJ
scured by clouds he could not see the
road in front of him and so ran into
the ditch.
AS the vehicle turned over the gas
olene was forced from the tank, and
so caused the explosion. Immediately
every inflammable part of the machine
was ablaze, and though the thoroughly
frightened chauffeur and his friends
dashed water from the ditch over the
vehicle, they were unable to check the
conflagration.

A POSTSCRIPT.

The poets tell how Psyche sped
When first she gave the reins to
folly;
How Cupid quit his board and bed
And left her to her melancholy.
They also tell what deeds were done
Ere she repaired her sad undoing;
Before immortal life was won
And Jove himself approved their
wooing.
But no one tells in fitting song
The truth she learned in loves re-
newal:
That parting, If not over long,
To passions flame gives added fuel.
Or how since then, with studied art,
From time to time she raises Hades,
Then melts to tears to win his heart,
AS is the way of mortal ladies.
SO here's a hint that's worthy of
A place in future songs and carols;
Though Cupid gives to mortals love,
IT'S Psyche gives them lovers
quarrels.
