looking into this matter carefully, for although the canal will be located far from the United States If will be dug on American territory under the jurisdiction of the United States, and be constructed and owned by the government and the application of the eight hour principle to government work of this magnitude would not only be a triumph but have Il far reaching. and, they believe whole some moral effect. On the other hand those who, like MT. Davenport regard the present eight hour law as vicious and the bill for its extension as socalis- tie hold that under no circumstances should either be so applied.
 In discussing this subject. Mir Daven- port said; Tn opposing the eight hour bill l spoke for the allied interests which 1 represented In part and incidentally for the great interests which are concerned in doing public work for the government in the nature of dredging and harbor work, and also those people that will have to do, probably, with the building or the Panama canal. In 1892 congress passed a law which made if unlawful for any contractor or subcontraetor doing work upon the public works to require or permit any laborer or mechanic to work more than eight hours in any cal endar day, and further imposed the say age penalty upon any contractor or sub contractor who intentionally permitted any man to work more than eight hours on any such work in one calendar day of making him liable 10 fine of sl,o0O or Imprisonment for six months or both. at the option of the judge before whom he was tried.
 Piles on More Agony.
 But the pending eight hour bill piles on the agony far beyond that under the law as It stands today. Any contractor who intentionally violates the present law Is liable to penalty. any sub-con- tractor who violates the law is subject to that penalty. But the eight hour bill leaves that law still in force and pro- eeeds further and makes the contractor liable to heavy fine; that is, q penalty

ARBOR DAY ADVOCATES.
How One Woman Showed Her Pen
iteHce.

Penitence and tree planting ordina-
rily have no connection, but a little
incident in the life Of Mrs. George B.
Mcclellan, told by the Philadelphia
Ledger, ''adorns a tale and points
moral 50 tersely that tile Chieftain
reproduces it. The Ledger says:
"While Mrs. George B. Mcclellan
was lunching with some women friends
one day last week, the eldest oil the
party began to entertain the others
with an account Of her only matrimO-
nial quarrel. She said that after max
I ing it up with one another, her hus-
band had planted tree in remeI-
brance Of it.
"'What a splendid idea, laughed
Mrs. Mcclellan. / must make a note
Of it for the benefit of few couples
of my acquaintance who are always
quarreling. Ii they adopt a similar
/ plan they will have a magnificent ave-
nue. in no time .''
/ Now, it is not the intention Of this
paper to insinuate that the avenues
of Vinita could be beautified BY quar-
+ relsome husbands and wives, but on
/ the other hand the Chieftain is ready
to champion the cause Of those who
have entered into marital relations.
They are living in peace. But the
story is related that the attention of
all may be called to the fact that it is
now "the planting time" and there
is not a town in the Cherokee Nation
where trees can be planted and grown
to a better advantage than here
The soil is peculiarly adapted to the
growth of the maple and native trees,
and if each property owner would plant
a few, whether as the result Of an ar
armistice Of peace or not, it would be
only a few years until those now grow
ing up could wander down the shady
lanes" and praise their ancestors for
their forethought.

1t is the little things that count in
successful merchandising. A reporter
was talking with S. d. Wade, Of the
Jumbo Store, the popular one-price
clothiers, Of Vinita, the other day
He asked the merchant why it was
that they sold so much Of the working
clothes made by Hamilton-Carhortt
manufacture, Of Detroit Because,
was the reply. Mr.. Carhortt pays at
tention to little things In his apron
overalls he puts four more yards Of
fabric to the dozen than other makes
and in his waists, oyeralls, coats
and shirts he puts two more yards to
the the dozen. He uses a non-cOrrod-
ing buckle. He uses Blue-line sail
cloth drill for the pockets All these
are apparently trihes but trifes make
perfection Mr. Wade further re-
marked that they were the only firm
in Vinita who sell the Carhortt un-
ion-made overalls and jackets. s5-S7

BRYAN HIRES A HALL.
Talks to a Chicago Audience About
the New York Platform.

A dispatch from Chicago says: William
J. Bryan addressed large audience Sat
urday night in the armory of the I'd In
fantry here. The place was packed to It's
utmost capacity and a large number of peo-
pie were unable to get through the doors.
The meeting was entirely an affair of Mr..
Bryan's he having rented the armory, ana
paid all of the expenses of the meeting. He
was particular to have 1t understood that
his address was not In favor or against any
particular aspirant for the democratic NOM
nation for the presidency. His subject was
THE New York Platform" and he repeated
several times during the course Of his adj
dress that he was discussing measures only
and not men.
In order that his address might not have
the appearance of being delivered under
any particular political influence, or in the
interest Of any special faction. Mr.. Bryan
was his own presiding officer, and intro
duced himself to his hearers.
He characterized the platform adopted at
the recent state convention in New York as
Ambiguous. uncertain, eyasive and dis
honest" declaring that 1t would disgrace
the democrats Of the nation to adopt such
a platform. and 1t ought to defeat as an
aspirant for democratic nomination any
man who would be willing to have 1t go
forth as declaration of his views on public
questions"

straight for it, even when they are at a
distance so great that they could not divine
it's presence by any senses known to, us
1t seems really that sense of which we
have no knowledge informs them or the
direction in which water may be found.
There seems to be a sort of chemical at
traction, says NJ. Werner. But how does
this act, and on what part of the creature?
This remains mystery. Reptiles also seek
the light. but Independently of heat; they
are positively heliotropic and in winter
they often leave a comfortable and warm
retreat to seek the sunlight. Sight is gen
orally good with them. 1t Is probably the
finest sense they possess, but 1t would still
appear to be very limited. The caymsns
and the -crocodiles cannot distinguish man
at distance of more than six times their
length. according to M. Werner. In the
water fishes only at very close range
about half their own length. This will SEEM
perhaps. unlikely to anglers. although some
of them can cite instances showing that
fish cannot see far. Snakes seem to have
very mediocre sense of sight The boa for
instance, does not at more than a
quarter or third of it's own length; diff
ferent species are limited to one-fifth or
one-eighth of their length. Frogs are bet
ter off; they see at fifteen or twenty times
their length. Frog catchers know this
from experience. Hearing is much poorer
than sight, If possible Most reptiles are
noticeably deaf, except caymans and croco-
dies; the boa appears to be absolutely so.

WATER ATTRACTS REPTILES.
Naturalist Werner Reports Results OF
= Observations.

From the Revue Scicntifque.
Some surprising and noteworthy conciu-
sions on this point have been reached by
German naturalist, NJ Werner of Vienna,
who has recently reported the result OF OBJ
servations that he has been making for
some time on the senses of inferior verte-
brates.
On certain points the conclusions of M.
Werner are very surprising. and in all they
are worthy of notice. NJ Werner has OBJ
served 1876 individuais. of which one-third
were at liberty. and he took all possible
precautions not to let the creatures know
they were watched. One general fact Is
evident. that reptiles and ampbibians are
strongly attracted by water. They 60
