. NEW COMMANDER
EVA BOOTH ASSUMES WORK IN
THE UNITED STATES.
A Fearless Woman Who Has Been Re-
markably Successful in Dealing
with the Poorest and
Most Degraded.

The middle of December at the
Auditorium in Chicago, Commander
Eva Booth will be given formal well
come to the new field which she is to
control, the Salvation Army working
the United States. The territory be-
ing such a large one, it has been
thought best to provide Miss Booth
with a deputy, Mrs. Kilbey, who will
have her headquarters at Chicago and
direct the work in the territory reach
ing from Chicago to the Pacific coast.
Miss Booths headquarters will be in
New York.
A most interesting personality is
that of Miss Booth. In appearance
she is tall and commanding, with,
what one may speak of as the Booth
face, a face that suggests spirituality,
nobility, and above all courage. And
courage is the dominant note in Eva
Booths character.
From the first she has played a
prominent part in the work os the
army, very soon .after entrance upon
active labors displaying unusual tall
ent for the line OF work in which she
was to become so very sucees sful-
work with the poorest of the poor,
the lowest of the low. No slim den
was too evil for her to enter, no dark
alley too noisoms. U%natraid, she
boldly made her -Tay where the DO
licemen dared not go. The most diff
ficult work she volunte red tor; faced
mobs, persecution, misunderstanding.
Eventually she became the Idol of the
slums. The late Consul Booth-Tucker
found her c%ongenial and best work
among cultured fox; Eva Booth with
the dregs of humanity.
Gifted, fitted for association with
the best civilization can offer, this
young woman yearns over the ig-
norant, the o%utcast. and plunges into
her efforts for these with so much en-
ergy she has well-nigh consumed the
candle at both ends. Fortunately, she
has a goodly fund of vitality to draw
from.
Her passion for humanity" is by
no "a her only claim to distinc-

ton; she is wonderfully foTceful on
the platform; she is the orator of the
Booth family, and in her busy life she
sometimes finds leisure to listen to
the Muse, the magazines OCCASIONALLY
containg poems written by Eva Booth.
She comes to us from Canada, where
she has directed army work for about
eight years, Previous to the Canadian
labors she had charge of the Salvation
Army International Training School in
London, and of the London division.
was head there of 600 commissioned
officers. Her work in Canada was I'M
surpassed and the territory she COW
cred in northern America was a vast
one. She opened work among the
miners and Indians in the Klondike,
established schools in Newfoundland,
colonies in Nova Scotia and the north
west.
AS one reviews, however briefly, the
story of her work one must marvel
that one slender woman was able to
undertake the hard and dangerous
tasks assigned her; marvel that work
of such magnitude should have been
intrusted to her keeping; that re
suits should prove, without question,
the wisdom of the choice. Addressing
great throngs, pushing her way in
darkest London, crossing seas and con-
tinents TO carry her message to the
untaught in the frozen north,
wrestling with problems of city hives
and of wide wastes of land, indomit-
able courage, %eloquence, untiring en-
ergy have been the forces employed in
the battle. 1t seems to us a unique
example Of what a brave woman can
accomplish, and we are moved to the
consideration of this quality as a quail
ity that ought to receive atten-
ton in the training Of womankind. 1t
need not detract in the least from
womanliness-for are we not told that
the bravest are the gentlest? Add to
f~earlessness Miss Booths overlooking
sympathy, and this seems the COM
bination for the ideal commander.

Annoying
Feature Develops in
Allotment of Cher
okee Lands

Muskooee, I. r, July 11.-As the
work Of allotting lands In the Cher
olee nation continues. It becomes
more evident each day that there will
not be enough unsegregated land TO
60 around. This will mean more
work for congress next winter and Is
likely to prove very annoying fea-
ture
When the numerous treaties with
the Cherokee nation were formed, It
was assumed that there would be land
enough for all entitled to anotments,
althol j. it was realized there would
be very little surplus, and consequent
" no provision was made for caring
for those who might be left out In the
cold. In each of the other four ma
tions it was realized early that there
would be surplus, and provisions
we're made in al! except the Seminole
country for selling all that might be
left after the allotment work is com
pleted.
rhe only plausible suggestion OF a
remedy for this deficiency is that
those who may be left without allot-
ments be paid a money consideration
equal in value TO the average allot-
ment But this will be a difficult
task by reason of the fact that vari-
Gus prices will be placed upon the
average land. It would be unfair to
compel those deprived Of selecting an
allotment to accept only the value
placed upon the average land by the
government officials. because this was
much lower than the actual market
able price. On the other hand, 1t
would seem hardly the right thing to
allow them what many are asking for
their property, because, then, many
of the allottees who have succeeded in
securing homes could reasonably com
plain that their more tardy brothers
had become favorites with the govern
ment

sion are oongratulating themselves up
on the fact that congress will meet
before this question eliminates. It is
the opinion. however, Of many that
an equalization board will have to hC
named to adjust the matter, and that
the deficiency will be met with drafts
upon the tribal funds.
The Cherokee nation contains ar
area Of 4,420,07O acres. The averag'
allotment there is 110 acres, and th'
rumber Of citizens entitled to allot
about 10000. If the entire area coul'
be allotted, the division would be aoou
allotted, the division would be abou
an even break, but much OF It has beer
segregated for mineral purposes
Since the Cherokee nation was mrs
poneed to allotment its citizens hay
been paying dearly for the former lil
erality of its early government in ad
hitting to citizenship the designing
whites. who insermarrled there. Thi
was Arst felt. and very acutely, toe
when the extent of the average alloi
ment was limited to 40 acres, Will
allottees in none OF the other nation

WAS A FAMOUS BIRD.
But Eight-Year-OId Prize Winner Was

The earl of Denbigh, who command

of London during it's recent visit to
America, told at dinner party in New
York one night a story which, he said,
Andrew Lang had related to him
There was, according to the story
an aged Scot who had a reputation
far and near for his fine fowls, which
took prizes at all the fairs and shows
of the countryside.
A gentleman, stopping in the neigh
borhOod, heard so much of the Scot
and his birds that he decided to give
the old mans stock a trial. Accord
ingly he sent an order for the finest
turkey that could be procured, and in
due season was delighted to receive
an exceedingly large and plump fowl
The fowl was roasted and served
but SO tough and dry did it prove that
the gentleman could not eat a mouth
full of it. Very much chagrined, he set
forth to find the old Scot
The latter, after listening to his
patrons outburst OF disappointment,
