A we'll known actor, who has mas
tered German, French and Italian in
his odd moments, and is now studying
Spanish, remarked, as he explained his
system: ''They say charity begins at
home. think the same is true Of edu-
cation He learns language by en-
ploying a valet who speaks it, and al
lows the servant to talk nothing but
his native tongue. Those farmers who
employ German or Italiant Wallets for
their cattle might well follow this
mans example.

Editor Troup of the New Haven
Union frankly admits tthA& he is in
the present campaign as Q Hearst
man for the sole purpostl GU unhors-
ing Committeeman Homer S. Cum
mings. This may appear to be all
right from Mr. 1roup's standpoint,
but it is just what has been dividing
and dlsrupting the party. and leaving
it outside the breastworks, If every
man that gets defeated for office will
ever thereafter try to "do" the man
or men that took his place the party
is in bad way surely.

DESERT TO BLOSSOM
ARIZONA LANDS TO BE SUPPLIED

Government to Establish Great Res

the Water Supply for
Irrigation.

Ii has been known for a good many
years that much Of the land in Arizona
could be made exceedingly productive
If water supply were assured At
tenpts have been made at irrigation,
but the water supply of the rivers is
such an uncertain quantity that it has
been practically failure. To-day there
may be a food of waters coursing
through the rivers, and few days later
the river will have dwindled to a stream
that is unable to supply the irrigation
bitches with water. To illustrate by
some figures taken in 1891. when the
greatest flood ever known in Salt river
valley since it's settlement occurred:
On February II the mean discharge
OF Salt river was 835 second-feet. in

If the winning of the democratic
primaries of last Friday carried with
it the adoption of a new set of rules
and new committee, and several
other things, it might be the victory
that some people are now claiming
for 1t. As the case stands, the only
thing the "old liners" won was the
naming Of the delegates TO the state
convention. Under the existing con-
ditions it seems too bad that the vic
tory is not all that is being claimed
for 1t. While the 'old liners seem
at the present time to have the major
lily, and will undoubtedly he able to
hold their position, the men who die
tated the policy OF the party last fall
are still in control of the machinery
It will require the carrying of several
more primaries before the 'told liners
control the party whip in Waterbury.

DEAR SIR: We are in receipt
of your letter dated December 10th,
referring to our objection, on be-
half Of the choctaw and Chickasaw
Nations, to the enrolment Of those
citizenship applicants who were adj
mitted by the Commission to the
Five Civilized Tribes and the
United States Courts a-deF the
act Of congress approved June 10,
1896, and who have declined to
have their cases transferred to the
Choctaw and Chickasaw citizenship
court, after such decisions in their
favor were set aside by that court
in the test suit Of The Choctaw
and chickasaw Nations vs.. ]. T.
Riddle Ct al.
II would seem from your letter
that the position Of the choctaw
and Chickasaw Nations is not fully
understood; and in order that there
may be no further misunderstood
ing and for the information Of all
who may be interested, we make
the following statement and give
the same publication throughout
the two Nations
The choctaw and chickasaw
Citizenship Court has heid, III the
test suit above referred 10, that the
decisions of the United States court
under the act Of June 10, 1896, were
void, for tile reason that both the
choctaw and Chickasaw Nations
were necessary and interested part
ies and only one was served and
made a party The decisions Of the
commission'io the Five Civilized
Tdibes were rendered under the
same law, under the same circum-
stances and affected the same per
sons and property; and our view is
hat they are likewise void.
This, however, cannot and will
lot affect the citizenship rights Of
oersous entitled 70 enrolment, Up
IN the merits IF their claims. Those
persons who have tribal enroll
nent and recognition, as citizens
1y blood, or who have intermarried
n accordance with tribal laws, with
.itizens by blood, have the status
ind citizenship rights they have al
ways had The void proceedings
lad befor the commission to the
five Civilized Tribes and the
United States courts cannot effect
hem one way or the other.
The persons affected by. and
,oming within the purview Of our
objection, are those who have no
ribal enrolment and recognition
VI WAC have not intermarried, III
accordance with tribal laws, with
'itizens by blood, but who rely
upon decisions Of the
commission to the Five Civilized
Tribes, under the Act Of June 10.

SINGLE STATEHOOD.
Assured, Says a Republican Leader
Chickasaws, Choctaws
and Cherokees
Left Out.

Washington Jan. The pres
ent session Of Congress will author
ize the organization Of two new
states.n
Arizona and New Mexico viii
be authorized to consolidate anc
form a state, to be known as the
state Of Arizona; authorization will
also be given Oklahoma and Greek
and Seminole nations, in Indian
Territory, to consolidate and form
a state, with a provision for the ad-
dition Of the Cherokee, Choctaw
and Chickasaw nations, comprising
the remainder Of Indian Territory,
as soon as the agreements with those
nations expire by limitation, which
will be in the spring Of 1906.
1t was prominent republican
member Of the Committee on Terri
tories Of the House who made this
emphatic declaration. He is a
man in position to know whereof
he speaks, and his past record for
conversation and reliability gives
great force to his present uttersnces
but it is apparent to any one who is
not blinded by prejudice that such
is the intended policy Of the Re
publican majority in Congress.
The republicans are lining up al
most to man in favcr Of the ere
alton of one state out Of
New Mexico and Arizona.
AS to Oklahoma and Indian Terri
tories the Republican members Of

to a unit in favor Of the Ultimate

A WOMAN'S NAME,
Origin of the Custom of Changing
1t When She Marries.


The custom which makes it proper
for the wife to assume the name of
her husband at marriage is involved in
much obscurity. A recent authority
advances the opinion that it originated
from Roman custom and became
common after the Roman occupation
of England. Thus Julia and Octavia
married to Pompey and Cicero, were
called by the Romans Julia of Pom
pey and Octavia of Cicero and in later
times the married women Of most Eu-
ropean countries signed their names in
the same way, but omitted the of"
In spite of this theory it is fact that
as late as the sixteenth and the be-
ginning of the seventeenth century a
Catherine Parr signed her name with
out any change, though she had been
twice married. We also hear of Lady
Jane Grey, not Dudley, and Arabella
Stuart, not Seymour etc. Some think
that the custom originated with the
Scriptural idea that the husband and
wife are one. This was the rule of
law as far back as 1868, and it was de-
cided in the case of Bon versus Smith
in the reign of Elizabeth that woman
by marriage loses her former name
and legally receives the name Of her
husband.-New York Herald.

Moving Pictures and seasickness

Successive pictures have been taken
at intervals during an ocean voyage to
show the life aboard ship, the swing
of the great seas and the rolling and
pitching of the steamer The heave
and swing of the steamer and the
mountainous waves have been so
realistically shown on the screen in the
theater that some squeamish specta-
tors have been made almost seasick. It
might be comforting to those who were
made unhappy by the sight of the
heaving seas to know that the operator
who took one series Of sea pictures,
when dashed with his machine in the
lookout place on the foremost of the
steamer, suffered terribly from seasick-
ness and would have been glad enough
to set hts foot on solid ground; never
theless he stuck to his post and COM
pleted the series.-From Stories of In
ventors,' by Russell Doubleday.

HEROISM IN ANIMALS.
It Is Not More Uncommon Than IL
Brute Maternal Affection.

maternal Affection.
A writer on natural history complains
that men are prone to regard mascu-
line courage in defense of others as a
virtue purely human. In reality self
sacrifice for the female sex OF for the
young is part of the scheme of nature,
and every male thing is strong and
splendid in appearance because he is
the descendant Of those who have
proudly held and guarded 1.-The privi-
lege of DEATH" Another writer tells a
story which illustrates this point. Two
entomologists, hunting at night, clam
bered over a gate with their swinging
lanterns and found themselves in a field
filed with sheep. The result of their
coming was panic and furious STAN
pede. The sheep charged heller SHELTER
away from the lanterns and huddled to-
gether at the far end of the field. But
there was ram among them, and as
the flock scurried' away this creature
stood firm, covering the retreat. Then.
steadily and majestically, the huge ram
advanced with lowered head toward
the mysterious lights and pressed them
pack to the gate. This is only one
graphic story Of many that might be
told of masculine courage throughout
nature. Man has some virtues which
animals, SO far as we can judge, know
nothing about: but heroism-the pride
OF affording protection to the weak
and daring death for the security of
the. fock-is not human attribute
alone, any more than is maternal af-
lection.

Of a mutfied explosion. Hastily dress

his house and telephoned fire alarm

from the front door and took flight.
The third man already had disap-

waiting for the early train to Moose

head and ordered him to throw up his

was robbed of a small sum of money.

A WINNING SCHEME.
The Power of Tim;Al Beauty to Dis
arm Wrathful Shoppers.

a woman whose stern yisage spelled
trouble, says the Philadelphia Record,
stepped up to the complaint desk in a
big store. Back of the desk was timid
miss-one Of those Dresden doll girls
who never seem to lose their baby ways
and at the sight of the wrathful
shopper she seemed to shrink a bit,
while into her wide blue eyes came
what the poets would style the look of
startled fawn. The indignant Gus
toner began TRADE about some mis-
take that had been made in connection
with a purchase but her anger disap-
peared when she saw how much the
shopgirl seemed to take the matter to
heart. Finally, after calmly explaining
the fault she went away smiling. Its
q great scheme remarked the observ-
ant manager with the air of a man be-
slowing bouquets on himself You
see, in every large business establish
ment there are bound to be mistakes
occurring all the time. When Gus
rors they are usually in an unreason-
able frame of mind. If there was a
man back Of the complaint desk or q
strOngminded woman. we'd have all
kinds Of trouble smoothing out the
kinks, because the customers would
keep their fighting mood on when
they encountered somebody who looked
able to take care of himself But to
go up against pretty, timid girl dis
arms them, and in minute they are
cool and ready to talk over the situa-
ton peaceably. The men kickers could
not raise a row with a handsome girl,
and the wOmen-well their motherly
instincts are touched and they become
good humored''
