CATAWBA INDIANS.

Robert Lee Harris, chief of the Ca
tawba Indians, which has a tiny reser-
walton embracing only one square mile
near Rock Hill, 5. Con which are so
members of his tribe, lately visited Ra-
leigh, y. c, seeking in the state Ii
brary for all information possible about
the Catawbas. These Indians were,
even after 1900 a powerful tribe, and
touched the Cherokees, who were in the
North Carolina mountains and in the
foothills. Chief Harris says that there
are only about $50 Catawbas in the
United States, while in 100 the tribe
could muster several thousand war
riOrs. He is anxious to have the tribe
put under federal care and educated
by the government.

SEASONS CONE AND GO

AS tho seasons come and go
Slowly one by one
Let US fancy that a life
Takes a year to run.
Spring awakes the early flower,
Sleeping in the dale,
Lets the brooklet flow again
Through the sunny vale.
Life's Springtime is Childhood sweet.
Happy, careless. free,
Tender-hearted, innocent,
Always full of glee.
Summer IS . fuu-blown spring.
Crowned with Ioveliest flowers.
Glorious days and starry nights
Fly on golden hours.
The Summertime of life is too
The bud of Spring full-blown.
The height of beauty. pleasure, grace,
In the maiden shown.
Autumn makes the Summers joys
Rich. yet more subdued;
Purple grapes and apples red.
Leaves al crimson hued.
SO, the Autumn-tllne OF Ire
Shows the mind matu-ed.
Beauty worn with graver grace
Tells of trials endured.
Last not least, old Winter comes,
Bitter. and so cold;
Yet it brings to rich and poor
Christmas joys untold.
So the Winter time of life.
Though frosty, kindly seems
II memories of Seasons past
Cheer US with their beams.

The past week has indeed been a treat
to theater goars and with two or
three exceptions perfect satisfaction
was given. The exceptions mentioned
were only disappointed because of lack
of knife dueIs, gun play and blood and
thunder melodramatic situations. II
is impossible to please everyone even
with such a beautiful play as "Ari-
IONA" for there are some who will
always prefer 'Uncle Toms Cabin" to
Mansfield or Sothern.
Beginning Monday and continuing
for the first half of the week The

complete change of specialties. The
play is another of Joseph d. Clifton's
successes and abounds in interesting
situations. Tuesday is excursion and

mr.. KYLE'S ULTInATUh
Diplomatic Relations Between Ariz-
Ona and Missouri Greatly Strained.

The Republican yesterday morning
contained a story about the Drane-
Kyle embroglio respecting the Mis-
souri, consulship in Arizona to which
high and honorable office both gentle
men lay claim. The Republican, how
ever, was hasty in announcing that
the controversy had been finally set
tied by Governor Folk, through an in
teUview had with him by Selim Mich
elsOn in favor of Mr.. Drane.
When Mr.. Kyle read Yesterdays pa
per he became very angry and said
he proposed to safeguard his rights to
the last by fighting the case to the
highest tribunal and that he would
submit only when no stone remained
to be turned. He said yesterdays ar
ticle was colored in the interest Of
Mr.. Drane and he desired a fair hear
ing for his side of the case. Acting
without delay he at once outlined the
rough draft of d letter he proposes to
dress up a little and forward at once
to Governor Folk In the interest OF
Mr.. Kyle his letter is herewith repro
duced. Ordinarily it would not be
courteous to Governor Folk to make
the letter public previous to his re-
ceipt of it but Mr.. Kyle feels that in
this instance no harm can be done
and he desires to prevent any preju-
dice that might arise against his cause
locally were any time to elapse dur
ing which he seemed to be inactive.
This is the letter:
Phoenix, Ariz., Aug. 3, 1905.
| Hon. Joseph w. Folk,
Jefferson City, Mo.
MY Dear Governor am informed
by the enclosed clipping from the
Arizona Republican that you have re-
instated the Hon. R. II. Drane to the
office of consul from the common
wealth of Missouri to the common
wealth of Arizona. which Office with
all its emOluments he relinqUished to
the undersigned. a lifelong repUbli-
can. It is admitted if you please. that
Mr. Drane is a native born Missourian
and that l am native OF HoOsierdom,
but l am an adopted citizen Of the
state and ann still the owner of con-
siderable real property in the city of
st. Joseph. Mo. Mr.. Drane on the
contrary has disposed of al his pos
sessions there and has severed his re
latfOns permanently with the state. A
further fact is that at the last gen
eral election Missouri gave her cleo
toral vote to a republican candidate
for president and that your hOnora-
bic self was elected governor largely
by republican votes. My colleagues of
Wall street, Phoenix. Arizona, and my
self respectfully but fOrcibly demand
that your excelIency Immediately re-
scind this order and again rehabilitate
the undersigned with the Office of Mis-
souri, consul to the commonwealth of
Arizona. with all the perqUisites and
emoluments appertaining thereto And
we would further inform your excel
/ lency that if these requests are not
Immediately carried out, we propose to
lay our complaint before the president
with the request that the interest OF
the good loyal Missouri-Arizona re
publicans be respected and protected.
Very truly yours.

,ns SHEETS or LONDON.
Are Inferior TO Those Of New York in
Some Respects as Here
Shown.

London has 5000 miles OF streets.
There are 100000 buildings upon them,
Of which a considerable portion are rear
buildings.
New York, smaller than London in
population, has 2.700 miles OF streets, OF
which $50 miles are in Manhattan, $50 in
the Bronx. ESQ in Brooklyn, 500 in
Queens and about 300 in Richmond. In
Queens and Richmond there are more
than 500 miles Of unpaved streets. In
Manhattan, except in the small Inwood
district. all the streets are paved, and
are better paved than the streets Of Lon
don, says the New York Sun.
The number OF buildings in New York
Is $4,000. materially less than the nun
Der in London. but New York has a very
much larger number on higher buildings
than the English capital.
London has many more by-streets,
side-roads, alleys, lanes and squares
than New York; it has more crooked
streets, it has more small streets, IT. has
more byways than New York, but in pro-
portion TO its population it has fewer
streets. fewer arteries of travel, than
New York, and as a consequence the
traffic Of London is more often con-
gested at certain points than the traf.
&c of New York
While in New York the growth Of
and Of business is along and
to the growth Of mair
throughfares, in London it proceeds ir-
regularly. with the result that improve
ments in the way of cutting through the
widening streets are constantly being
made necessary.
Proportioned to the population, Phil
adelphia and Washington have more
street space than New York, but no Eu-
ropean city except London compares
With It. london has more vehicular traf-
dc on its streets tnan New York, but less
