INDIANS GETTING CIVILIZED
The Tuscaroras Are Giving Up Their
Customs and Looking Forward
to Citizenship.

1t is many years since the Tuscarora
lnuians have held coincidence" a
ce- emony which to the red men is
similar to the Inauguration of presi-
dent by the whites, says Niagara
Falls correspondent of the Chicago
Inter Ocean. In explanation of this
an CID chief says that the Indians no
longer look upon the ceremony of
''cond olence" with the reverence of
old. The Tuscaroras are the adopted
children of the Six Nations, and they
say that the 0nondagas, the firekeep-
ers of the nation practically have 6is-
qualified themselves for this honor
bic position, and that the Tuscaroras
no longer look up to them as children
are wont to do to a parent for advice
and help.
From these feelings between the
adopted children and the leading tribe
of the Six Nations, it is evident that
the Indians are elinging closer to civ
ilization and the white mans customs,
and that chasm is opening between
the Indian tribes of the state. AS are-
suit of this severance of tribal rela-
tions the Indians Of western New York
are looking forward to citizenship.

CITY SAFER THAN COUNTRY.
More People Killed by Lightning in
the Open Than in the Wire
D., Bound Houses.

It is in the country that most of the
fatal accidents from lightning occur,
and they are about evenly divided be-
tween people who are struck in houses
and those who are killed in the open
OF while seseking refuge under a tree,
says an article on lightning, in Frank
Leslie's Popular Monthly. To stand
under tree in a thunder storm is per-
haps, next to clinging to lightning
rod, the most dangerous position that
can be chosen. The comparative safe
ty of the modern city from lightning
is due to the network of wires which
covers it, and the number of tall
buildings with iron points, tin roofs,
metallic cutters and steel frames con-
nected with the water, sewer and gas
pipes, which form an excellent system
of conductors. Still the city is not by
any means absolutely protected, for
when a cloud with tremendous store
of energy approaches quickly, all the
wires and pipes in ten cities cannot
prevent it from discharging recklessly
right and left.

The students Of nearly all the
high-r Institutions of learning in
Oregon are required to con-
tribute to athletic funds. Consensus
of opinion is that it is wise to en-
courage athletics with funds and
other proper means and at the
came the the faculty of each school
should exercise supervisory rela-.
tions in all matt-rs appertainipg to
intercollegiate hletics. Several
representatives favored the idea of
eniisting the alumni of the college
in athletic sports, feeling that
much financial and other encour-
agement would accrue. Remark
able unanimity offeeling prevailed,

TRICKS OF PHYSICIANS.
Practice of Completing Their Edu-
cation Abroad Proves Almost
Always Profitable

The best thing physician or sur
geon can do is to go off about six
months every two or three years and
give patients chance to miss him.
They will flock back to him in swarms
providing, of course, he has estab-
lished reputation and gained their
complete confidence" So SAYS lead
ing and eminentIy successful surgeon.
Here is a physician living in a city
of $4,000 inhabitants, with practice
of $4,000 a year, of which he collects
$4,000. The most successful practi-
tioners in my town. he says, "are
two young men who spent year each
in Vienna and Paris, apparently study
ing the latest methods and cures. All
that they knew they learned right in
New York, but the mere fact of their
having taken a course or two in
Europe. or having pretended to, has
given them a vogue which no one who
has never been abroad can appreciate.
A foreign reputation is worth $4,000
a year to a ss.Gc9 doctor.''

Uncle sau,s New seal

The state department is to indulge
itself with a new great seal of the
United States, as the old one is so worn
that it will not make clean-cut i'm
preston on the documents-it is used
on. Congress appropriated $1,000 to
have a new seal cut; but the. old de-
sign, of course, will be followed faith
fully. Only three seals have been
formed since the formation of the gov
ernment, they having been made in
1852, 1s41 and 1885, respectively.

JUROR HAD RED HAIR
And Resented Remark of Fresh Law
yer by Refusing to Come to
an Agreement.

1t behooves a lawyer to be careful
of what he says while arguing before
jury. John c. KiEnear, practition-
er in New York, realizes this fact thor
oughly, says the Albany Argus, and all
because of remark he made not long
ago in the Yorkville municipal court.
He appeared on behalf of another law
yer who was suing a corporation for
$500 for services alleged to have been
performed. The evidence adduced
made out quite strong case for the
plaintiff, whose counsel made telling
speech. He reviewed the facts in clev-
er fashion, and toward the close of his
remarks, said that the corporation
would have paid but for the fact that
"red-headed lobster of a junior partner
had objected, and thus precipitated
legal proceedings. The court rebuked
Mr.. Kinnear for using such language
and the lawyer apologized. But he had
done the mischief. All the jurymen
but one Uttered, and he had red hair.
The judge delivered his charge strong
ly in favor of the plaintiff and the
jury retired. Everybody expected YER
dict in few minutes. but in couple
of hours words reached the court
that there was no prospect of IN agree
ment. With one exception the jury
was agreed on a verdict for plaintiff.
The exception was the red-headed
man, who said: Perhaps the lawyer
thinks it's smart to call people red
headed Holsters. I don't" The court
finally discharged the jury and Lawyer
Kinnear is still digesting the lesson.

St. Paul, Oct. 3.-The little town

Among the buildings destroy ed

The tornado struck the town
from The southwest quarter and
made clean sweep through it, fol-

the Main S rect and devastating all
the buildings on either side. Then
the residences further back wers
struck and many Of them blown
completely away.
It ,eams almost raculous that
there was not a greater loss of life.
Four of those killed were in John
Eoeu's Saloon when it collapsed,
and tney were buried beneath the
wreckage. The Others were in
dry-goods store, which was blown
away and they were killed by the
falling walls. Ed Peters, of Dover,
was killed in the wreck of the hotel.
The telephone exchange was de-

ARBITRATION COMMISSION.
Venezuela as Large Representation as That

Washington, d. c. (SpeciaD.-De-
tails OF the terms OF the proposed ar
bitration between Venezuela and the
allied foreign powers are gradually be-
coming known.
The arbitration commission will be
composed OF as many members repre-
serting Venezuela as represent the al.
lies. Ii the foreign court is made Up OF
seven members, the powers will name
three and Venezuela three. and the SIX
will agree OH the seventh. In that case
Germany, England and Italy each would
name one. But ii the tribunal is com
posed OF only five members, as IS
thought likely, the three powers will
have to agree on their two arbitrators.
Some think the allies overlooked
point in agreeing to have only as many
arbitrator as Venezuela, but that has
been the understanding OF the State De
partment from the first. AS the allies
arc operating jointly. it is regarded as
nat "ral that they should present their
case through Joint representatives.
