A Quaint Fellow.


OF Uncle Ned. he's crank. it is said; !.
He never takes notice, but Jes' goes ahead.
The boys they throw snow balls, an Jeer at
his clothes,
But OF Uncle Ned unconcernedly goes,
Singin song
An joggin' along.
He says a harsh word never lessons his
joys,
1t doesn't hurt him and amuses the boys.
Besides, he never hears anything that they
say,
He's busily occupied, day after day,
Singin' song
An joggin' along.
He says that he's sorry fur folks that must
gain
Their fun by an effort to give others pain,
It's so easy to wound an SO hard for to
heal:
He reckons he really gains good deal
BY jes' singin' a song
An joggin' along.

SCOTCH NAMES.
Tie R~uson TheySAbound Among the
Creek and Cherokee Indians.

Tie Reason They Abound Among the
Creek and Cherokee Indians.
The prevalence of Scotch names with
the Creek AMI Cherokee Indians has at
various times been the source of some
comment. Although other nations.
and. In fact, nearly every nation. Is
represented by the names borne by
these people, these Scotch names are
far more numerous and have suffered
less change than those acquired from
any other nation. The names of some
of these Scotch Indians are closely al
lied with the history of these W ma
tons for the past 100 years. and for
several generations such names as Nc
Intosh. McKellop. McCombs. Adir.
Mcqueen and McGilliyary are register
cI on nearly all the treaties AMI oil
cial papers of moment to either ma
ton. Men bearing these names today
are among the foremost of the pro
gressive Indians.
AS was stated. the origin of these
Scotch names dates back over 100
years. At that time the Creek and
Cherokee Indians more especially bent
their efforts toward building up a ma
ton Of physically perfect men. The
women were encouraged to mate only
with the strong. robust men of the
tribe, and If a weak man w.thstood the
taunts and gibes of his fellows and re-
manned there was little chance of his
securing a wife. In that way the life
CT these people was almost Spartan.
While this sentiment was at its
height and the tribes were living In
Georgia. some time before the Revolu-
ton. Il regiment Of Scotch ~highlanders
was quartere1 in the vicinity of one
of the principal villages of the nations.
The Indian maidens looked with favor
on the burl: men of the north OF Scot
land. and n member of marriages was
the result. When the regiment was Or
dered back to England or to some 9TH
err quarter of the globe there were
some Of these Scotchmen who stayed
behind, and their names have thus
been fixed in the annals of the Creek
nation. 1t is through the Creeks that
the Cherokees acquired their Scotch
names.--OEmulgee News.

the general feeling Of the street. on

In the coming presidential nomination,
said:

What is the feeling towards Presi-

banker was asked.
THE majority of the brokers and
bankers Of New Yrk are for Roose-
velt," he replied.
"Of course there is a small group of
men-big men, too-who have lost a
great deal Of money during the last
year, and when a man loses money he
generally looks around to blame some
one, and if possible the government.
1.-The general public imagines that
Wall street Is down on Roosevelt be-
cause it holds him responsible for the
action Of the attorney general against
the Northern Securities company.
That action, to my mind, is an I'M
mixed blessing In Disguise"
