A resident of Versailles. Mr.. Guig-
net. sent to Nature vivid account Of
a duel hi saw between hedgehog and
a viper. The two enemie; knew very
well at first sight who was who. and
eyed each other as ii they knew mo-
ment's inattentioE would be fatal. The
viper was the first to get tired of GaZ-
ing. and il began to glide away. but
just then the hedgehog rushed for the
viper's tail. and having nailed it fast
with its teeth. il rolled itself M. The
hedg ehoy WAS very careful. however,
not to cut the tail OFF. The viper curled
back. and delivered furious assaults on
its aggressor. wrestling and rolling
with the curled-up hedgehog all over
the place At length the snake,
wounded in a hundred places. died.
The hedgehog began its repast on the
tail OF is victim, and was careful! net
to eat the head.

LIFE AND DEATH

So he dies for his faith. That Is nne
More than most OF MS do.
But say. can you add TO that Ike
That he lived for IL too?
In his death he bore witness at last
As a martyr to truth.
uid his life do the same in the past
From the days OF his youth?
II is easy to die. Men have died
For a wish or a within
from bravado or passion or pride.
Was II harder for him?
But TO liye-every day to live out
All the truth that he dreamt
While his friends met his conduct with doubt
And the world with contempt.
Was II thus that he plodded ahead,
Never turning aside?
Then we'll talk Of the life that he led.
Never mind how he died.

Traffic was delayed about eight
hours. The origin of the fire is
unknown, but it is supposed ssto

MIN ERAL LEASES.
Bill introduced Prohibiting Leasing
of Mineral Lands.

Senator Rawlins of Utah has in
troduced a bill prohibiting the
le asing of mineral lands OF Indian
reservations. The bill provides
that no unalloted or tribal lands
within any Indian reservation
shall be leased with or without
the approval of the Indians, and
that no such lease heretofore made
shall be approved by the secre-
tary Of the interior.
Senator Rawlins's bill makes no
provision for the opening up and
development of these mineral
lands on Iddian reservations.
Most of the members Of congress
from the mineral-bearing states
are opposed to the leasing OF In
dian mineral glands. They take
the position that the refusal of the
government to lease the lands will
hasten their opening to public
settlement, as soon as the exist
ence of mineral values on the res
ervations is established.

LAND COM PANIES
In the Creek Nation are Borrow
ing Trouble and Titles to
Property in That Section
are Becoming Hope
lessly Cloudy.

rhe land companies in the
Creek nation are still continuing
the illegal leasing of lands, and the
secretary of interior has just
issued another note of warning
that they will soon reap a bounti-
full harvest of trouble.
The following letter was recent
ly received by Senator Cockrell, +,
from gentleman in Missouri who
had received one of the illegal cir
culars. which have been spread
broadcast by the Muskogee COM
panies;
"My object in writing is to
know just exactly what contracts
would or would not be binding
with the Indians in leasing their
lands for term of years, say %
cents per acres and agreement with
them for the fret privilege of pur-
chase when the government grants
them their patents. Now, can
they be held to their lease when as
yet they are not in full ownership
OF their lands? II so, ! want to
make some leases; il not, l do not
want to touch it,"
Senator Cockrell sent the letter
10 Mr.. Hitchcock, secretary OF the
interior, whose reply makes it
plain that the land agents and
trust companies who are securing
long time leases on lands in the
creek nation with options Of
purchasing them when the Creeks
secure title. are going to have a
contest with the government when
the question comes up for final
settlement. In his reply Mr..
Hitchcock says:
"The department has received
many communications similar TO
th at of Mr.. Johnson, and has uni
formly advised the parties that
neither the Creek citizens nor their
heirs can sell or ALLEVIATE their
lands prior to the dates of the
deeds 10 such citizens, and that
after deeds shall have been de-
livered to the allottees they can
not be alienated at any time with
in five years except with the ap-
proval Of the secretary OF the in
terror, and the land decided as
homestead cannot be alienated for
= period Of twenty-one years. The
department has also held that un-
der 1.-THE provisions of law prior
TO the receipt of deeds for their
lands any leases attempted to be
made by Creek citizens exceeding
one year are illegal and will not
he recognized by the department"
The illegal operations Of the
land sharks is rapidly putting a
cloud on every title in the Creek
nation.

HITCHCOCK ASKS
For Appropriation to- Stamp out
Smallpox In Territory.

The secretary OF the interor has
made several recommendations TO
the senate committee on Indian
affairs as to items TO be included
in the Indian appropriation bill f,
which has been passed by the
house and sent to the committee
for consideration. One of the items
the secretary recommends is sl5.-
600 for the suppression of small
pox in Indian territory. 10 his
letter accompanying the sugges-
ton the secretary states that the
Indian inspector in charge Of the
territory has already spent $50, 600
an amount appropriated at the
last session for the purpose, but
he has a deficit of 5000 to face
and it is for this the appropria-
ton is asked. The secretary has
also recommended that SIS, 600 be
provided for the maintenance Of
the Whitaker school for orphans.
