10, THE POOR INDIAN.
Handsome and FashaonabIy A9tired Choctaws Now Belle the Conn
 mon Expression.

"A writer in Woman's Home Com- panion gives some facts about the residents of Indian Territory which are startling. He says:
 "The Choctaws, by the way, are the wealthiest, and in most respects the most progressive, tribe of all. Purcell, their chief town, is a thor oughly modern little catyland the visitor who walks It's streets for the first time can hardly believe he Is in the Indian country The leading doctors, lawyers, bankers, preachers and business men are all Choctaws, and all men who would be credit to any community. While sitting in front of hotel there one evening recently, watched with great deal of interest the handsome and fash ionably attired couples of young folks who were on their way to some entertainment, and I must confess that never saw anywhere more pre- possessing specimens of high civi1iza- tion. An extremely pretty and styl- ish young woman was of the party, and was assured upon competent authority that she was a typical Choctaw maiden"

HORIZONS IN NEW MEXICO.
About Five Hundred Are Scattered Through Several Of the Eead-
 ing Counties.


 There are to-day in New Mexico, out of an estimated population, at very conservative estimate, of 240,o0o people, not over 800 Mormons, men, women and children. These, says the Santa Fe New Mexican, are scattered and live in small settlements Tn San Juan, Rio Arriba and Mckinley coun- ties. They cut no more ice political ly here than does Tammany po1i- tician in the celestial empire. The immigration into New Mexico at this time Is not coming from Utah; 1t Is from Iowa, Nebraska, Kansas, Okla homa and Texas, and no Mormons have been noticed in the numbers that have come into the territory during the past three years and are coming now~ The senators and rep resentatives from the state of New Mexico in congress, the officials of the new state, the members of the legislative assembly and the county officials will contain large propor- tion of native New Mexicans of Spanish or Mexican descent; in fact, they will be pretty evenly divided between this class of New Mexico citizens and the men who came to New Mexico years ago and have been citizens thereof for from ten to thir- ty and forty years.

HAVE THEMSELVES TO BLAME
Women Are Often Responsible for Unvveleome7A Attentions of
 Strange Mem.

"It always amuses me to hear mem bers of my own sex complaining of the unpleasant attentions they re- ceive from men," said the college settlement girl, reports the Chicago Chronicle. "As 8 rule the complain ing contingent is young. One sweet thing actually complained that men on the street looked at her, She did not also say that her street conduct was enough to compel them to. Co., quettish glances in all directions and every foolish possible and impossible sort of self-consciousnsss are enough to draw the stares of the idle. From all I can learn even pretty women are seldom pursued if they absolute ly keep their eyes where they belong and pursue a straight course. Should they happen to pass a street or a store into which they intended to turn and retrace their steps some loiterer might find the action suspi- cious and fancy his own fatal charms were the cause. He soon sees the mistake when there Is a mistake. While it may be sale enough. I ad- init it is not very nice for 8 girl or woman to be on the streets alone at night. As far as I'm concerned, though, have never had any man speak to me or offer any indignity even when returning at night through the slums entirely alone"

cavalry, about 5000 men in all, set out from Little Rock intending to give the Federals in Helena Fourth of July surprise party. The gunboat Ty Ter guarded the water front and an un- broken chain of Qualifications inclosed the town on the west. Opposite the center and just outside the town limits was Fort Curtis, a heavy earthwork mounting siege guns. About half mile inland on the crests of semicir- cular range of hills lay the outer line of works, comprising four redoubts, mounting field pieces and connected by infantry parapets. On Fighter hill, the north and northwest quarter, stood Batteries A and B. Graveyard hill, west of the town and in line with Fort Curtis, was crowned with Battery 0, and on the southwest Battery D looked down from Hindman hill.
 There were but 4,0oQ. Federals at Helena, and as there were six roads from the interior to the town the de Renders must keep a sharp lookout on them ali. The garrison had no trained artillerists, and the guns were in the hands of Missouri infantry.

ONLY RACE OF STABILITY.
Statement That Caucaslans wiII sur-
 yAve All Other People i'm the World.

"A surprising statement was lately made by Rev. K. c. Jaeger, pastor of the German Presbyterian church, Brooklyn, when featuring on "The Origin of the Human Species" re- ports an eastern paper. He said at the Labor lyceum that in the white race only can be found men, the crowning work of Gods creation. Men enjoy the possession of soul, and for millions of years before the creation of mankind negroes, Ma lays, Mongolians and Indians might have been swarming over the world, but these things cannot be consid- cred as men. Negroes and Malaya have a good initiative ability, the pastor added, but they are not, en- abled to guarantee the progress of mankind. The Caucasian race only will survive and all non-Caucasians will disappear.
 The Indians have almost perished. The Mongolians. will perish by the fatal use of opium and there is no hope for the other races.

 @wNHE glorious Fourth forty
 years ago was day to date
 from in the events of the war.
 Lee abandoned his lines in front of Meade's army on the heights around Gettysburg and retreated to a defensive position at safe distance. 1t rained torrents, and the Confeder- htes got away without parting shot In fun or earnest from their foes. At V1cksburg, however, the skies were bright, and there was no little Iollification over the surrender of Pemberton's garrison and the occupa- lion of the town by Grants victorious battalions. Pemberton asked for terms bn the Sd, but the barley did not end until the morning hours of the 4th, and lhe climax, was fixed for 10 o'clock R. m. General Grant wrote of 1t with his usual frankness in the memoirs. Said he:
 'I have no doubt that Pemberton commenced his correspondence on the Bd for twofold purpose first, to avoid an assault which he knew would be successful, and, second, to prevent the capture taking place on the great national holiday, the anniversary of the declaration of American independ- tnce. Holding out for better terms as he did, he defeated his aim in the lat Ter particular. On the 4th at the ap- pointed hour the garrison of Vicks- burg marched out of their works and formed line in front, stacked arms and marched back in good order. Our whole army witnessed the same scene without cheering"
 General Pemberton gave another req son for surrendering July 4. eff I should be asked" he wrote, "why the Fourth of July was selected as the day for surrender the answer is obvious. believed that upon that day could get better terms. Well aware of the van ity of our foe, I knew they would at tach vast importance to the entrance on the Fourth of July Into the strong bold of the great river and that to grat- fly their national vanity they would yield then what could not be extorted from them at any other itime."
 But the retreat of Lee and the sur render of Pemberton were not all that the day had in store for the Confeder- ates. They got the worst of it in a plucky but i'll fated assault on the Federal notifications at Helena, Ark, on the Mississippi between vicksburg and Memphis. The assault at Helena had been planned with view to. draw ing part of Grants army from the siege ! of Vicksburg to its defense, for Helena in control of the Confederates would have been a second Vicksburg ob- l structing the Mississippi.
