RAW CRAFT
Ignorant Indians Easy
Mark for UnSCrup-
uIouS Men.

The following story of how the In-
dians may be grated comes from Tah-
leQuah, and indicates how easy it is
for some Indians to be separated from
their lands, and the unscrupulous
methods that are being used by some
oil grafters.
1t is alleged that George GrItts, who
lives near Tahlequah, had made a
lease on his allotment to an oil COM
pany which was to pay him $5, 600 bo-
nus for the lease in addition to the
royalty. In the meantime he had
made application and had the restric-
tions removed from the alienation Of
the land Grafters who knew this
went to Gritts and offered to buy the
had outright and offered him $500 for
it, explaining that If he sold to them
he would get the S5, 900 bonus just the
same when the lease was approved.
Gritts thought this was a good offer
and accepted it. AS soon as the deed
was made transferring the land the
purchaser filed it for record and if the
lease is made they and not the Indian
will get the big bonus offered
Such deals are possibly only because
Of the improvident Indians desire for
ready cash. Ten dollars in his sight
is far more valuable TO him than slO0
thirty days hence or than a thousand
a year hence. OF course this applies
only to the more ignorant full bloods.

roo MANY MOUNTAIN LIONS
Guides Have Government Contract 10
Kill All Found in Yellow
stone Park.

Mountain lions have increased so
rapidly in Yellowstone park OF late
that they threaten the extinction OF
deer, elk and other Wild animals that
live in this great government game
preserve. So numerous have tbs
cougars become that the government,
through President Roosevelt's recon-
mendation, has given John and Homer
Goff. celebrated guides and hunters at
Meekin, Col, a contract in clearing
lions out OF Yellowstone park, re-
ports the San Francisco Bulletin.
Goff and his brothers will have sew
eral assistants, all celebrated lion
hunters, and with his great pack OF
cougar-hunting dogs, will make a
thorough business Of ridding Yellow
stone park OF its pests.
The work Of hunting lions In yell
lowstone park, will, 1t Is estimated,
take several seasons, and in the mean
time there is a demand for lion hunt
ers in Colorado, Wyoming and other
cattle states, where stockmen are suf-
fering losses from these predatory
animals. Cougars are said to be on
the increase in the Rocky mountains,
and unless something is done to stop
their ravages they will not only make
way with much Of the wild game, but
will iniiict incalculable damage on the
live stock industry.
Owing to the numerous number OF
mountain lions In Yellowstone park,
the government will not have To pay
a large bounty to the Goff brothers.
The hunters will receive bounty Of
five dollars on each mountain lion they
kill, in addition to a salaby Of $75 a
month each for their work. Most
Of the work will be done between the
spring and fall, for the winters are
very severe in Yellowstone park, the
climatic conditions being almost arc
tic, owing to the moisture generated
by the many geysers The work will
be done systematically and there is no
one else in the country equipped to
carry on the business Of exterminating
cougars in such Wholesale fashion.
The Cor brothers have the largest
and finest pack Of cougar hounds in
the world A good cougar hound costs
$35 to s1OO as a puppy, but this IS a
mere bagatelle in comparison with the
work Of training the hounds The ami
mails have to be trained constantly in
the work Of trailing and freeing cou-
gars and in learning how to close with
them when they have been brought to
the slound desperately wounded. And

BRAND OF TAILLEss PIG.
Pioneer of Montana Recalls a Feat
Of Sharpshooting in the
Early Days.

Looking over a brand register the
other day reminded me of an event
which occurred at Fort Benton in
1866" said The Montana pioneer to a
group of friends at Helena. The
story serves to illustrate two things
first, the unerring accuracy of AL. b.
Hamilton's aim, and again the expe-
dients that are resorted to in order
to procure an original brand.
Hamilton was the first justice of
the peace in northern Montana. His
commission was issued By Gen.
Thomas Francis Meagher, the leader
Of the famous civil war Irish brigade,
who was then acting as governor of
the territory of Montana Hamilton
had charge of the American Fur COM
panys post at Fort Benton, and the
feat to which shall refer may have
had something to do with his election
as sheriff of Chouteau county in later
years.
Il have heard Of cattlemen using a
frying-pan, railroad fish plates and
other unusual shapes in metals as
branding irons, but, after all, think
Hamilton's was perhaps the most orig
inal
The company by which Hamilton
was employed had about S5 head Of
hogs that were continually getting
mixed up with the porkers belonging
to others. and he determined to put
brand upon his animals that would
prevent any chance Of mistaken iden-
tity.
With some little difficulty Hamil-
ton got all the company's hogs in an
inclosure, went to the Office, secured
his IA revolver and a supply OF
cartridges and seated himself on the
fence surrounding the pigs. Without
getting closer than ten feet to a
Single one of the animals. Hamilton
in the course Of perhaps Is minutes
had shot the tail from each. He did |
not waste more than half a dozen
shots in doing it. nor was a single
hog injured, save that its tail had |
been clipped of clean. That feat gave
him the title Of champion shot Of the
territory"

then. after months OF training, a dog
may develop a yellow streak" and
prove utterly worthless for cougar
work.
Occasionally a cowboy shoots
mountain lion as the animal is found
eating the carcass Of a colt or calf it
has killed, but these are rare instances, +
and usually the mountain lion makes
its kill and gets successfully away.
Most Of the calves killed by the lions
are under six months old. II they
would content themselves with eating
the carcasses of the animals they kill
the loss to stockmen would not be 50
heavy, but cougars develop taste
which is fairly epicurean and VIII
have nothing but the blood Of calves
An Arizona stockman recently re-
ported that a lion was traced to his
lair and killed. Scattered about the
place were the bodies Of II calves, an
killed within a short time.
For some reason the mountain lion
prefers the flesh Of a colt to that Of
any ether animal and cougars have be-
come the terror OF horse raisers in the
Rocky mountain states.

Washington, April 13.-An important step toward agreement upon the date for the assembling of the second Hague con ference was made today when Secretary Root informed the Russian government that the convenience of the United States would be served by the selection of any date after September 20 next.
 This date was mentioned because it was calculated 1t would mark the conclusion of the Pan-Amerean conference at Rio Janeiro and would give the delegates this opportunity to attend The Hague con vention where they were engaged to rep resent their governments in both cases. The greatest satisfaction is expressed at the readiness with which the Russian government accepted the suggestion from the state department for the designation of a later date than July for the con- ference. An important objection to an immediate convention was connected with the proposed representation of the South and Central American states in the con ference. These states found upon an in- vestigation of the invitation to the con ference that they would not enter at once upon an equality with those that had signed the original Hague treaty. no steps having been taken to give effect to article K of The Hague convention which says:
 ''The conditions upon which the powers who were not represented at the first in ternational peace conference can adhere to the present convention shall form the subject of a subsequent agreement among the contracting powers"
 The South and Central American states invited to the second conference make it condition of attendance that the sigma tory powers of the first convention shall give effect to the article quoted and provide means for their adherence to the first convention before the second meet
