NEWEST GAM E.
Is "ouch," Which Is Now All the Rage
 In the East.
From the Baltimore Herald.

From the Baltimore Herald
 Do you play "ouch?" If you are de- votee of pool at all you surely play the game, for 1t is the real, real thing just al present In all the pool parlors around town, especially of the better class, Bal timoreans have the knack of getting up new games for the cracks of the cue and last season 1t was golf pool. This season it is "ouch." or, as some call if, Stud Keely."
 Baltimore boasts of many crack anna teur pool players Naturally straight pool to them is of little interest, for a frame can be run off by them in such easy style that the game lacks all spice. Conse- auently the new fangled games become fads in a short while
 The new game has many advantages for a player of only fair ability, for he virtually stands as much chance of win ming as the crack shot. A game might last but a half minute and then fifteen minutes, and it is the uncertainty of 1t that Is going so far toward popularzing it. Any number can participate The fact that 1t is called Stud Keely" by some Is not brought about by any re-

executive committee of women, Mrs. Rob ert Jemison, whose beauty and brilliancy insure the social success of any event, is showing the sincerest interest in the plans for the horse show, and is anxious for 1t to be In every way a great success. TO further its success Mrs. Jemison has committee of six of the most prominent women in society, each of whom will be chairman one night of the horse show. On the committee are Mrs. Edward Ma gruder Mrs. Culpepper Exum, Mrs. T. G. Rush. Mrs Walker Percy, Mrs. Ross c. Smith and Mrs. John l.. Kaul. It would have been difficult to find a group of more beautiful women, and when in their boxes at the horse show they will have with them a number of the younger beauties in Birmingham's social world the scene to be presented will rival that in the horse show arena.
 The arrangements for the horse show are so thorough as to suggest the New York horse shows. Practically all of tho classes are filed The handsome souvenir programmes show the high standard of the horse show and the various classes indicate that the show will be varied enough to interest all classes of people.
 The requirements in the matter of ap- pointments are so strict that on this point alone much of the beauty of the horse show depends The importance that Is paid to every detail satisfies even tho keenest and most critical observer. and when SO much significance is attached to every part of the trappinRs, which must measure up to the standards Of horse flesh, when even the grooms have reg ulation costume. it is no wonder that the horse show is a scene that cannot be re- produced at any other time.
 The opening night of the horse show Is to be filled with brilliant events. The handsome silver cup presented by Presi- dent Fies will be awarded. and the prizes announced for the opening night are of special interest.
 On the second evening of the horse show the leading feature will be the cotillon to be danced on horseback under the direc- tion of Mir Walter P. Woldridge of Co., lumbia Tenn. and in which twelve ladies and gentlemen will participate. The so- cial interest will center in the visit to the horse show of President Roosevelt who after his address in Capitol park will go at once to the fair.
 The horse show will hegin each evening at o'clock and a special feature will be the brilliant music to he furnished by the First regiment band of Cincinnati.
 The horse show, beginning so soon after the dining hour. makes the correct dress to be that worn at dinner. The most elaborate dinner gown is always worn at the horse show. and with the picture hats aud the handsome evening coats the i'm vpiration from the boxes alone seems quite psf1cisnt without the brilliant picture

WOMENWORKINGFOR
 HILLMAN HOSPITAL
Complete Canvass of the City Will be Made and Every One VIII be Asked to Contrbute-City Has Been Divided Into Ds-
 trcs and Each Will be Thoroughly Worked

As announced in these columns, the especially to a systematic canvass of the city for subscriptions to the Hllman hos pital. This fund Is not intended to de- fray the running expenses of the hos pital. but to relieve the institution of a debt of $50O0 due on the building. This note is due In December, and the workers for the hospital hope to have the entire amount subscribed through the present plan of canvassing each city district.
 During the past week several liberal contributions were made to the hospital, these including the officials in banking institutions, which as @ body cannot con tribute money even to hospitals, but in every instance when approached individ- ually the officials gave generously.
 At recent meeting of the Trades Coun- ell the work of the hospital was endorsed enthusiastically and subscription of s25 was made, which will be supplemented by the individual organizations, representa- tives of which compose the Trades Coun- cil
 The canvass of s1 per capita which will be started tomorrow will be conducted so systematically that all the city dis tricts will be covered by more than hundred women, who have been assigned to the different districts. While the one dollar subscription is asked. there will be hundreds of people who will contrib ute more generously to the hospital, and in this way, through the lberality of subscribers to the fund, 1t will grow rap idly.

.aThs full-blooded Indian ID gradually
passing, just ~ the deer or the wild
turkey will soon die II penned up" said
Colonel John N. Florer, Of Gray Horse,
Okla, who, has lived with the Usage
Indians for thirty three years. MY
prediction issthat In twenty-five years
more there will not be full-bloodcd
Usage left
"When 1 frst went among the
Osages the tribe comprised between
COCO and 5000 people. Now there are
but 100 or 1900 Of them, including.
Of course, all those of mixed blood. The
Osages have been holding their own
pretty well in point of numbers In the
last four or five years. but they are
doomed to 60 the way of their fellows.
1.-THE dying out of the race 10 due in
large measure to the change In their
habits Of life. They used to be out III
the open air all the time, and when
they travelled it was always on horse
back. Even when they moved their
camps each Indian would round up his
string Of ponies and make pack AMI
mails Of six or eight Of them to carry
his belongings. Now they ride about
Ii buggies and carriages, the best to
be had. They are rich enough to afford
all the luxuries of that sort and, with
no incentive to exertion, their lives are
about as far removed from their for
mer habits Of activity as could be.
"Iwas present at the council near In
dependence, Kan, when the treaty was
signed by which the tribe surrendered
to the government the Osage-cedcd
lands in southern Kansas, and pur-
chased in their stead the million and
half acres from the Cherokees, which
they have since occupied. That trade
was a good thing for the Osages. They
got $125 an acre for their land, and
the deferred payments, were to draw 8
per. cent interest. That mounted up
rapidly and is the source of the annui-
ties which the Osages enjoy to-day.
'Those were the good old days which
the Indians always speak of as the
buffalo days went out on the plains
with them In their hunts for years.
On west from the Usage nation there
used to be times when one could see
buffalo for miles and miles. At dis
lance it looked like dark, surging sea.
In one year there bought $4,000 buff
Palo hidos-more than there are in the
whole country to-day. OF course, there
are lots Of the younger members Of
the tribe to whom that is all tradi-
ton, and they will sit around for hours
and listen to the elders talk of the old
times."-Kansas City Journal.
