EACH COLOR TO ITSELF.
How the Cherokee Nation Gets Over
the Race Problem.

From the Kansas City Journal.
The race problem in the Cherokee nation
is solved to the general satisfaction of the
three races concerned and the Intermediary
mixed bloods. In the location of homes the
Cherokee fullbloods and negroes are mostly
largely are In towns and territory contigu-
Gus to each other. The Cherokee-speaking
citizens much prefer to associate together.
In the nation there are thirty schools at
tended by fullblood Cherokee children and
seventeen by negro children. The negro
blood schools are not so by legal require
ment, but a corollary of their prefer
ence to live near each other. The Cherokee
and negro do not intermarry or socially
mingle. Two Seminaries and an orphan
asylum are attended by fullbloods and
mixed bloods only, the colored high school
by negroes only.
In the Incorporated school districts whites
and Indians attend the same schools, and
race prejudice and undue feeling on either
side are being lost in fellowship and friend
ship cultivated in the class room and on the
playground. Both sides are better satiS-
fed in the combined schools than they
were when they were kept separate. Full
blOods seem to mingle as freely with white
renters and their families of good character
as they do with mixed bloods.
OF the 3S500 citizens of the Cherokee ma
ton the best statistical information gives
about $500 fullbloods, 5000 intermarried
whites, % 800 mixed bloods and 1900 freed
men.

COUNTED HIS FOOTSTEPS.
A German Explorers Way of Mapping
His Route Through Africa.

From the New York Sun.
Count Edward Wickenburg. a German
explorer, has returned home after a long
expedition in Africa. He started from the
French port of Djibouti Travelled inland to
Addis-Ababa, the capital of King Menelk,
then on to the great brackish Lake Rudolf,
and finally to Lamu, on the Indian ocean.
1t was a very fruitful journey. and the best
feature of it was the fine map he brought
home of his entire itinerary.
Count Wickenburg had with him two
pedometers, which counted his footsteps
for him. and he was thus saved the labor
which DIR. Junker underwent when he
walked 400 miles into the depths of Africa
and had to count every step himself. Wick
enburg ascertained very carefully the aver
age length of his steps One thousand steps
little over a third of an inch in length
Every mile he walked added about an inch
to his route on the map.
When his path was straightaway he often
walked far 2,0O0 steps before he
stopped to bring up his map to the point he
had reached. If the path were crooked he
stopped more frequently.
So he trudged on. compass in hand. taking
the direction of the route while his pedome-
ters kept steadily counting his footsteps
TWenty-one big sheets We're required to re-
cord the first stage of his journey a dis
tance of 213 miles.
When the expedition returned home his
hundreds of big map sheets We're reduced
in the process of engraving to sheets of
much smaller scale. His man has been
published this month in six sheets. and a.
fine product 1t is, giving much detail about
every important aspect of the country for
miles away on both sides of the map

Keep the Mouth Clean

Il rom tne New York Mail and Express.
Science, in it's latest word, drives home
the pertinency of this advice. "Mouth Bac-
terra" is the subject of recent address by
DR.. Samuel A. Hopkins of this city, who is
dentist as well as doctor of medicine, and
knows what he is talking about AS a re-
suit of years of careful study and investi-
cation he shows that NEARLY every form OF
bacteria finds it's way at some time into
the human mouth"
isms which the doctor particularly investi-
gated, is called the micrococcus lanceo-
latus. 1t was found in the oral cavity of
about 20 per cent of the healthy mouths
examined. They do not remain healthy il
this microbe is not gotten rid Of 1t is held
to be the excitant of croupous pneumonia.
Lessened power of resistance caused by an
attack of this disease, makes the patient
particularly susceptible to other weakening
diseases.
How are we to deal with the danger? DR..
Hopkins leaves us in no uncertainty on this
point. His conclusion is pointed and direct.
With positiveness based on the results of
experiments and clinical experience he as
serts: -.7
This disease might almost be eliminated
from human Ills were it possible to keep
the mouth in a clean, healthy condition.
The way to prevent not only croupOus
pneumonia, but also many other diseases
likely to arise from the lodgment of bac-
terra in the mouth, is here clearly pointed
out. Comparatively few physicians and
nurses" says DR.. Hopkins, "have learned
important factor in preventing complicat-
ing Diseases" But the means Of prevention
now outlined are SO simple that to neglect
them = sheer recklessness.

BIRDS OF THE MID-PACIFIC.
Their Great Number and Their Sur
prising Tameness.
From the Boston Globe.

From the Boston Globe.
On Layson, away out near the middle of
the ocean, Walter X. Fisher, who made
the inquiry into bird life for the govern
ment was amazed at the great number of
birds and their surprising tameness.
Popular opinion has held that birds of
all kinds were naturally afraid of man, but
those who have made a study of the sub
ject oppose this theory. Naturally, birds
do not show fear of man until they recog-
niZe in man a deadly enemy.
There were terms and albatrosses, BOBBY
birds, curlews. finches and man-o'-war
birds in densely populated colonies all over
the island. and beyond protests, such as
bill swapping and siding away when at
tempts to handle them were made, they
took little notice of bipeds without feathers
who went among them.
The investigators Were able to approach
as close as they desired to record with
camera the domestic duties of mamma
terms and with tact not much time was re-
quired to get into careSsing touch with any
Of the winged population.
One of the most characteristic birds of
LaySon Is the graybacked tern. 1t lays
single egg on the sand and sometimes on
the bare rock. When the chick is hatched
one of the parents stand sentinel over the
nesting. Approach of the investigators
would cause the guardian of a nest to
spread wing slightly. tilt tail and walk
around in circles. Unlike our own tern,
these of the far Pacific islands hold their
bills straight out, like gullr when flying.
In studying the white tern, or love bird
1t was discovered that the parent in feeding
It's young brought two little fishes in it's
bill. 1t was always two. and how the pro-
WIDER for the tern household captured the
second fish without unbeaking the first was
puzzle they could not work out
Whenever the investigators approached
the nest or young the white tern arose and
lowered in front of their faces, peering in
tently at them. as If trying to divine their
intentions. Just out of reach they would
flutter, turning their heads from side to
side and occasionally uttering a droll and
wheezy little cry. They did not offer to
peck at the intruders, but seemed content
to stare and wheeZe. e.. se
Terms on the wing at some distance
would, on catching sight Of the men, change
their courses and fly close to for fnvestfga-
ton. Terms standing guard over a nesting
would make no attempt to fly when ap-
preached and stroked on the back.

DESTINY OF HUMAN SOULS.
Theory That the Spirits Of Depraved
Men Pass Into the Beasts,
from the Portland Oregonian.

From the Portland Oregonian.
Are the bodies of animals inhabited by
the souls of human villains dead and gone
Don't sneer too hastily at the question, for
If it should be answered finally in the neg
ative science Is at a loss to account for
the utter depravity Of the animals. It is
apparent to the dullest observer that dumb
beasts exercise a malign influence over
man. Think of the tempers ruined by
cows that have kicked over half-filled pals
Of milk. Think of the regulations for
truth that have been destroyed by trout
Think of the honesty that has been turned
into deceit by the horse, SO that they who
trade in that animal are bywords among
their less sorely tempted brethren. Think
of the indefinite prolongauon of, this list
that might be made and then consider if
animals are or are not animated by the
souls of human wretches that have passed
away. -sr''
Some such theory must be accepted and
it Is not open to doubt that reasonable peo-
pie will accept this: The souls of the
wicked are condemned to pass into animals
and to stay there until they have discov-
cred prospective tenants worse than them
selves.
This theory explains everything The
liars inhabit fish, the tricksters horses and
those given to butting in become goats.
In the attempt to end their tenancy by
finding suitable successors the evil spirits

success The half-pound trout dropping off
the hook flaps his tail in ecstatic certainty
that the angler will proclaim him five
pcunder at least. And the look of human
anticipation on the face of goat about
to knock some unsuspecting person into
barbed-wire fence can only proceed from
the knowledge that The resultant explo-
sion Will lower another soul in to the mire
as a stepping stone for himself.
The theory is irrefutable and it's general
acceptance would help the world to
higher plane.
