HOT WORDS GIVES UP.
Secretary Taft viii Pro-
Ceed to Dismiss
Negroes.

Washington, Nov. 21.-The war de-
partment issued the following state
ment today concerning the negro
troops ordered dismist at Fort
Reno, Okla:
"In the matter Of the order dis
charging the enlisted men of three
companies Of the Twenty-ffth in
fantary issued by the president an APP
plication was presented to the secre-
tary OF war by number of persons of
standing asking for rehearing by
the president. The secretary tele-
graphed the president OF the receipt
of the application and ordered the
proceedings Of the discharge of the
men delayed until the president could
Indicate his wishes.
"The secretary was in the mean
time called out of town. No answer
was received from the president. The
secretary on his return did not feel
justified In further delaying the ex-
ecution Of the order of discharge, es-
pecially in view Of the fact that the
secretary then learned that the presi-
dent had fully and exhaustiyely con-
sidered the argument Of the persons
who had applied for a rehearing.
Accordingly the secretary directed
yesterday that the proceedings for the
discharge Of the three companies be
continued without delay"
Mr., Taft in the above explanation
indicates that he VIII not oppose the
presidents order for the dismissal Of
those three negro companies respon-
sible for the recent riot at Browns
vile, Texas. The ssecretary's order
delaying the discharge was msinter-
preted, aud it was thought he would
join issue with the president ot the
question.

COUNTY SEATS
CAUSE TROUBLE

]. w. Orr returned last night from
Guthrie, where he has been watching
the organization OF the constitutional
convention. He says the county seat
proposition will give much trouble,
and that already several hot fights are
brewing. One Of the most active lob
bies in the county seat fight is main
tanned by Chelsea, which, however, in
order to win, must overcome the COM
bined opposition Of Vinita, Claremore,
Pryor Creek and Nowata, each OF
which towns is about twenty miles
from Chelsea.
J. J. Spencer, who went to Guthrie
as a candidate for sergeant at arms,
did not return with Mr., Orr. Tho he
was defeated for the oface he sought,
he thinks he will be taken care OF by
the convention in some manner, and
will remain in Guthrie short time to
see what turns up.

Rose Ivy, in a WOman's Will

The Rose Ivy company will present
"A Woman's Will" at the opera

the distinction Of appearing before
crowned heads, and has literally tour
ed the world over in her great repre-
sentation entitled, "a Woman's Will. "
Apart from this, Miss Ivy stands

Used Before Senator
iaI Committee at
MCAIeSter

The senatorial investigating COM
mittee has been rather lost to sight
this week, owing to the overshadow-
ing interest in the constitutional con-
vention. Since Saturday night the
committee has been in McAlester.
On Sunday the committee visited a
number of the coal towns around Nc
Alester, and on Monday hearings were
begun IN McAleSter. The principal
topic discussed has been the ques-
tion Of the disposition Of the coal
lands of the Choctaw nation. Judge
]. Henry Shepeld made strong plea
for the sale of surface rights to set
tiers.
The most sensational incident Of the
hearing at McAlester occurred Mon
day night, and is thus described by
the McAlester Capital:
Or. J. S. Murrow, president Of the
Murrow Indian Orphans Home, was
concluding an impassioned appeal to
the senators for aid for his institu-
tion. His address had also taken up
the question of removal Of restric-
tions, to which DIR. Murrow is bitter
ly opposed. Toward the last, the rev.
erend gentleman's remarks began to
take on tinge Of recklessness in the
form of charges against the white
population of the territory, and Sem
ator Teller, who has always been one
Of the few at Washington who defined
to entertain wholesale ISLANDERS Of
such character, began to sguirm
around in his seat.
Finally he interrupted, with a
rather bored look and an air Of fnali-
| ty
1--WE wish you we'll, DR.. Murrow,"
he said, 'but it will be only six
months now until you people have q
state Of your own, and then these
problems can be taken up and dispos-
ed Of by your own Legislators.
"Well God help the poor fullbloods
thenl" was the excited reply.
This reused Chairman Clark, who
both looks and acts like man that
would not tolerate SANDER Of any des-
cription.
w"Dr. MurrOw," he called sharply
"Do you mean to stand there and Sc
riously tell this committee that the
II /, 200, 600 people of this new state OF
Oklahoma, drawn as they are from
the best blood of the entire nation,
are going to deliberately conspire tc
rob poor, pitiable remnant Of an In.
dian tribe, few scattered thousands
whose lot happens to be cast among
them?"
II certainly do" was Mr.. Murfow's
excited rejoiner.
"Well, l don't believe it," the
chairman snapped out, followed by a
storm Of applause from the audience
and a voice from the rear: "You
have insulted the people Of the state
Of Oklahoma.
Still the doctor held his ground, and
in order that there might be no mis-
understanding he slowly and solemn
| ly asseverated: ''I believe it as firm
| ly as l am standing here that the peo-
pie of the state of Oklahoma will rob
the fulbloods of every foot of their
lands il they can"
With look Of pity Chairman Clark
tapped on the table and declared the
session adjourned.

MOSQUITOES
GIVEN A CHANCE
BOARD OF HEALTH HAS HAD TO
ABANDON SOME WORK TEN
PORARILY.

The increase Of mosquitoes in many
districts is due largely to a complete
withdrawal Of inspectors of the Board
of Health from the mosquito work
during large part of the past five or
six weeks. During that period the
Board has had a rush of other sani-
tary work, and it has been found nee
esasry to concentrate the forces in
some central districts, hence the mos
quito campaign has lapsed. The effect
has been a noticeable aggravation of
the mosquito nuisance.
1--WE had to use the inspectors else
where" said President Pinkham this
morning, "and so they have dropped
their work more or less as regards
mosquitoes. If the residents will keep
it up, however they can do much of
the work for themselves. We have not
abandoned the mosquitN campaign at
all, but have simply lacked sufficient
force to keep up work on a large
scale"

The Band
In Butte
THE AUDIENCE IN THE MONTA-
Ma TOWN Is CAPTIVATED BY
BERGER AND HIS MUSICIANS.

The Butte Miner says Of the Hawaii
am Band:
Something of a novelty in the musi-
cal line is the Royal Hawaiian Band.
which appeared at the Broadway the
alter yesterday afternoon and last even
ing. The band is one of the best brass
organizations that has ever appeared
i'm this city and. i'm addition. "a varied
program is rendered, consisting of q
number of selections by the Hawaiian
Glee Club and some delightful mum
bers by soloists
TO Capt. Berger head of the Ha-
waian Band, is due much Of the credit
for the success of the organization.
From the unskilled and practically UNI
educated Kanakas Capt. Berger has
picked out his musicians, teaching and
instructing them until they have be-
come proficient i'm the use of the in
struments selected. Today the Royal
Hawaiian Band is one of the most
finished and accomplished musical or
CARNATIONS in the world, capable of
appearing before the severest critics
AUDIENCE DELIGHTED.
The audience at the Broadway last
evening was simply captivated with
the performances Of the foreigners.
The program rendered was varied and
was of such a nature as to delight
even the most fastdious and to appeal
to those who have not been educated
to the classics.
A feature of the program were the
renditions of the glee club. The H1-
waiians have number of high-class
soloists, not to mention a combination
of songsters hard to beat. The vocal
numbers were all well received, while
the band numbers simply carried away
the audience.
Owing to the uneuphoniOus conglom-
Grafton of cognomens, it would be use
less to mention names. Miss Lei La
uha and John S. Ellis are entitled to
especial mention. Miss Lehua has
voice of wonderful sweetness and Mr..
Ellis proved that he Is singer Of
finish and talent.
Last evenings recital was attend
ed by a number of representative Butte
music patrons. The program from
start to finish was received with APP
plause.
A feature of the recital was medley
of national airs, played by ear by the
musicians from sunny Hawaii. Be
