The homes of this country are filled

 Pryor's quick eye detected that something was the matter and he hur- ried after her. When 8 bailiff went to summon him he found them billing and cooing like young lovers. It was the first time they had met for long time, and all previous efforts at a re- conciliation had missed fire Pryor went on the stand and there was q strong ring in his voice that was en- tireiy new.
 After the case was over Mrs. Pryor told her friend who had driven her down from Keota that she had decided to remain in Macon. He said some thing about presents and she promised to return them. The divorce bill has been recalled.

WHERE KINGS ARE COMMON,
In tM@ Creek Nation AIone~There Are NO Less Than Twenty-Five
 0f"Tanen-

Kings ar very comm on in theIndian territory. In fact, they are so com mon thatno-attention is paid to them, ment whatever. In the Creek country alone there are g real kings. Nero Drew is fair sample of them. Each one has kingdom~to look after, and it keeps him busy doing it, says the Kan sas City Journal.
 The title does not descend from fa- ther 10 son, as it does in the effete Flu ropean monarchies. The Indians elect their own kings. The tenure of office is two years. However, whenever an Indian is chosen king and serves his people well he is usually reelected without opposition. Some of the old kings in the Creek nation have been at the head of their kingdoms for 40 years or more. Nero Drew has been a king for 36 years.
 The Creek nation is divided into 25 towns, which is about the same as a township in the states. Each town has a king, whose duty it is to look after the Indians of his town. He has no power to spend their money or to com mand them to do anything Hispowers are somewhat paternal. He looks after the sick, and sees that they have med ical attention. He cares for the poor and decrepit. When any of his sub l jects get into trouble, he gives them fatherly advice and frequently appeals l to the federal authorities to show them mercy. He advises with his sub- jects on all matters pertaining to their l interests. In truth, he is their worldly adviser Sometimes he is their spirit ual adviser also for occasionally the Indians elect preacher as king.
 Indian kings are not very well com pensated. They get no salary. It is a labor of love with them. The only possible show they have of getting any money out of the office is through booding at elections. Tn this respect the Indians are not behind the times They poodle the same as other people Elections sometimes come high to th< candidates. Town kings are usually quite influential among the people o' their kingdom and they command { fairly good price for their inffnencs at elections. Most of them are full blood Indians. Some, however, ars mixed bloods-

Neither was willing to give up the man, so 1t was agreed to settle the matter with knives, in the presence of large number of the tribe, A spot on Will low creek, which runs through the reservation, was chosen as the battle ground The women met there by agreement, each one accompanied by several of her friends.
 Stripped to the waist, the combat ants prepared for the fray. There was no referee, as all realized that it was to be battle to the death, For nearly half an hour the aght went on, both women being slashed in fearful manner
 Neither one would yield, and their friends did not feel called on to inter fere in the trouble Finally both women dropped to the ground, ex- hausted, and when cared for 1t was found that both had received fatal wounds, from which they died short time later ....tg i-s.

NEW LOUISIANA SOCIETY.
Persons Born on Louisiana Purchase
 Want Day. at Worlds Fair

AS DoiH olL A%oulSlanA PuTchaSe
 Want a '.Day'' at Worlds Fair.
 St Louis, July 1O-Natives of the Louisiana Purchase territory may be given q special day at the Worlds lair at St. Louis. Indeed, a new and permanent society named, perhaps, Native Sons and Daughters of Lou 1siana," is likely to result from an idea that originated with K. E. Gris- wold, editor of the Metal Miner, at Minneapolis.
 MT Gr1swold, who is a ''native'' him. self, wrote to Col. E. c. Culp, secretary of the committee on ceremonies for the Louisiana Purchase exposition, suggestin that day be set aside as a special day for natives of the Ptlr- chase. The proposed new society is the outgrowth of MT GriswoEd's sug- gestion, and steps are being taken to effect the organization.
 It is desired that as a preliminary movement the name and address of | every person over 21 years of age be ascertained, no matter where he now resides. Any such person will be eli 1 g1ble to membership in the society. 1t has been suggested that the society hold it's first reunion at this World s fair on the day to be agreed upon by the founders of the society and the committee on ceremonies. Plans are being considered as to the best method of equipping museum in one of the buildings on the Worlds Fair grounds for the reception of historical relics and such literary productions as per 1 tain to this region.
 The project has been received with considerable favor in many quarters and it is anticipated that thousands aof l those persons born in this vast terri, tory acquired 100 years ago will make J this Native Sons and Daughters of Louisiana Day one of the important :, days of the Worlds fair.
