THE VANISHING osAGEs.
Indians Being Trimmed Out by Luxur-
ious Life They Lead.

Kansas City Journal.-"The full
blooded Indian is gradually passing,
just as the deer or the wild turkey will
soon die if penned Up," said Col. John
N. Florer of Gray Horse, Okl., who
has lived with the Usage Indians for
33 years, at the Coates house recently.
My prediction is that in Is years more
there will not be fullblooded Usage
left. When I first went among the
Osages the tribe comprised between
5000 and 5000 people. Now there are
but LOO 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 go the way of their fell
lows. The dying out of the race is due
in large measure to the change in their
habits of life. They used to be out in
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 I'D his
string Of ponies and make pack ami
mails of six or eight Of them to carr
his belongings Now they ride about
in buggies and carriages, the best to
be had. They are rich enough to af-
ford all the luxuries of that sort, and,
With no incentive to exertion. their
lives are about as far removed from
their former habits Of activity as could
be.
L was present at the second counc1l.
near independence, Kan, when the
treaty was signed by which the tribe
surrendered to the government the
Usage ceded lands in southern Kansas.
and purchased in their stead the mil
lion and a half acres from the Cherc
KEGS, which they have since occupied.
Ihat trade was good thing for the
Osages. They got $1.25 per acre for
their land, and the deferred payments
were to draw per cent interest.
That mounted up rapidly, and is the
source of the annuities which the
Osages enjoy today
Those were the good old DAYS
which the Indians always speak OF as
the 'bUffalo days. l 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 coulu
see buffalo for miles and miles. At a
distance it looked like dark, surging
sea. In one year there l bought 28, 900
buffalo hides-more than there are in
the whole country today. or course.
there are lots OF the younger members
OF the tribe to whom that is all a tradi-
ton, and they will sit around for hours
and listen to the elders talk OF the Old
times"

WILLIAM THINKS
WARL|KE THOUGHTS

Berlin, Oct. 27.-Recent events ap-
parently have turned the thoughts of
Emperor William toward the probable
ity of Germany soon becoming in
volved in war. His speeches at Ores
den Wednesday and in Berlin yester-
day contained pointed reference to the
probability of war and the necessity
OF being ready for it. Addressing the
officers of the Saxon Grenadier regi-
ment at Dresden the emperor said:
eve live in a time when every
young German capable of bearing
arms must be ready to give himself
to the fatherland."
At the banquet in Dresden at the
schloss the emperor, replying to the
kings toast to his health, said:
If the German empire continues to
prosper then we can calmly, with
raised visor and with the courage of
free Germans, confront any one who
should venture to cross our path or to
disturb us in the promotion of our
reasonable interests"
After unwilling the statue of Won
Moltke yesterday, the emperor ad-
dressed the army officers assembled
around him at dinner at the schloss,
saying:
How matters stand with us in the
world you have seen. Therefore,
keep your powder dry and your
swords whetted"

INDIAN GIRL
FATALLY BEATEN

Appleton, Wis, Oct 27.-Uncon-
scious, bereft of clothing and badly
beaten, Miss Katy John. an Oneida In
dian girl, was found on the reserva-
ton. Elias Cornelius, another Indian,
was arrested and brought here. He
will be held pending the condition of
the injured woman, for whose recov-
cry the physicians hold out no encour-
agement.
The authorities are also looking for
Wilson Skyler and Gerritt Johnson,
two more Indians said to have been
implicated in the case. Both are said
to have been students at Carlyle two
years ago. Cornelius recently re-
turned from the government educar
tional home at Philadelphia.
The Indians attended a dance on
the reservation Tuesday night, accord
ing TO the story told by the man in
the Appleton Jail, and all were more
or less intoxicated. A number OF
fights occurred and he declares that
the John woman left the dance hall
shortly after midnight and was in
company Of Thomas Danford.
In case the woman dies Cornelius
will be charged with murder and the
other two men will when located be
accused as accessories. The sale of
liquor on the Oneida reservation has
made drunken and disorderly assaults
common.

THE SMOKE NUISANCE.

A Few Cities Have Entered on a Fight
Against 1t.
The American citizen is more tole.
rant of public nuisances than any
other civilized being. This may be
on account of the fact that he believes
the constitution guarantees every one
the right to create a nuisance regard
less of his neighbors, so long as he
does not kill or rob or commit a sim
lily gfievous crime. Whatever the
cause, the fact remains We endure
the tin horn, the factory whistle, the
pushcart the builders dirt pile and
the advertising sign. or at least we
feel that there is no way of stopping
them. Similar sentiments have left
us SO long inactive-or at least un>
successful in our sporadic activity
concerning the smoke nuisance.
Everybody, it is safe to say, con-
cedes the smoky chimney to be a
nuisance. But the view is a passive
one. Formerly, and to some extent
even today, the argument was, 1--WE
can't stop cur chimney from smok-
ing" Technical advance and COM
mercial development have made COM
bustion a more manageable proce-
dure, and today the old argument is
replaced by What are you going to
do about it? You can't expect me
to spend a lot of money putting in
fancy devices to prevent smoke"
latter argument can be met only by
fact-the fact that the law says he
must prevent smoke. This work, a
function of municipal governments, is
in successful progress, and will ulti-
mately lead to a general recognition
that smoke is not only not wanted,
but also that it need not be suffered.
A relatively few, but yet slowly
growing number of American cities.
have entered on fight against
smoke, and a far larger number of in
dividuals and civic organizations are
now engaged in the struggle.

GEORGES CHERRY TREE

Oh. the little cherry tree was n rustler! It's leaves danced and twinllled in the breeze;
 And it wore its blossoms white,
 And it's cherries, coral-bright, Like n little crowned queen among the trees. Oh, the little cherry-tree &as hustler! It grew like daisy in the sun;
 It lifted up its head,
 And it spread and it spread Until George cut it down just for fun, Now the little cherry-tree is teacher, And its scholars are the people of the land; It teaches truth and pluck
 Must forever bring good luck, And shouts the lesson out to beat the band. And the little cherry-tree is a preacher, Preaching sermons with the hatchet for q
 text.
 "God and uature"-so it speaks
 Hate the liars and the sneaks; They're not wanted in this world nor in the
 next So the little cherry-tree is immortal; For centuries its fruit shall glitter red;
 Trees that round it used to grow
 Turned to sawdust long ago, But this fellow rises yearly from the dead Oh, little cherry-tree, by the portal Of Fame's historic temple you are set!
 And because you had to die
 Just to teach us not to lie' You're martyr, and we'll canonize you yet!
