INDIAN R0MANCE'S TRAGIC END
Death Intervenes Where Old Tribal
Influences Failed to Kill Love
and Settles All
Special to The Herald.

Special to The Herald.
CHICAGO, March 10.-Like a legend
Of old tribes is the story of George Mus
coe, full-blooded Chippewa Indian,
who died yesterday at his home on the
South Side. One of the best educated
men of his tribe, an athlete of prom
inence and soon to become the husband
of Mary Smith, the most beautiful girl
Of the Chippewas, the young man was
seized by that dread foe of all civilized
Indians-pneumonia.
Despite the opposition Of his father,
who was the last Of a long line Of in
Auential chiefs, the boy went to Car
Isle. A natural born athlete, he en-
tered vigorously into the college sports
and his prowess on the track and foot
ball teams is a matter of history at
Carlisle.
In 1900, when he graduated with the
highest honors, he returned for a visit
to his people. 1t was then he met the
girl. He wooed her, but she refused to
marry him because she was not his
equal in civilization. He offered to
don the blankets of his tribe, but she
would have none of it. A compromise
was effected by the young woman at
tending Carlisle.
A natural suspicion of the old In
dams of an educated member of their
tribe soon caused Muscoe to again leave
the home of his people. He remained
in the Indian Territory for two years
and then came to Chicago and entered
the employ of Butler Brothers. He
progressed rapidly and soon became the
chief checking clerk of that firm.
During all this time Mary Smith was
working and studying with all the te-
nacity Of her race to make herself
worthy of her sutton. She graduated
just before Christmas and at once be-
gan preparation for the wedding. But
one week ago Muscoe was taken Ill.
AS yet the intended bride has not
been informed of her sweetheart's
death. She is at the home of her peo-
pie III the north, making ready for the
dian will be sent to Cederville, Mich,
for burial.

Special to The Herald.
PHILADELPHIA, March 10.-Julian
Story, artist and husband Of Emma
Eames, gave bal masque at their
hotel last night to an exclusive loo
guests. Nine. Eames, who the night
before had sung to the greatest audi
ence of the season, was there.
So, although they weren't invited and
did not really want to be, were the i'm
perial Chinese commission viceroys,
TAFT Hung Che and Tuan Fang. There
was skating $50 feet UP in the air on
the roof and that was the cause of 1T.
Somehow, the viceroys had escaped for
the moment from their secretaries and
wandered blandly into one of the ele-
vators. The elevator stopped at the
second floor and just around the cor
ner an orchestra was playing for the
Story maskers.
The viceroys ambled musicwards. AS
they paused at the door the dancers
caught sight Of them. They stopped
dancing in admiration of what they
thought was the perfection of makeup.
IT'S the best Of ALL" cried one and
then all.
Great makeup" said another.
Cant be masks"
Mr.. Story came to the front in dom
mo. Don't know YOU" he whispered,
"but it's great"
The viceroys looked puzzled and bit
panied. Then the dancers circled about
the commission, laughing and singing
Round the Mulberry Bush"
The viceroys smiled blandly, but
worried. Just then the secretaries and
the official interpreter, Wing Ping
Chung, came breathlessly up. They
broke through to the commission and
explained vigorously. The maskers, re-
alizing their mistake, stood awe
stricken.
There was silence for a moment from
the merrymakers and then shout Of
laughter, in which the viceroys Joined.
They wouldn't go in on the floor,
though, but made their way to the roof,
which was brilliantly lighted and dec
GRATED and was filled with skaters. The
ponds on the roof, the only ones Of their
kind In the world, were comfortably
filled and for a time the Chinese
watched them gravely. Tuan Fang
said he could skate, but wouldn't. After
awhile they silently departed, but did
not stop at the second floor.
Later the Story ball adjourned to the
roof and in costume skated about for
an hour or more.

1t Is Good Poetry, but He Does Not

Special to The Herald.
NEW YORK, March 10-Marl5 Twain,
talking to some of his friends at a
downtown club the other day, said that
he had received recently some verses
which the writer had sent him because
he thought the verses applied pretty
we'll to the humorist. Here was the
poem:
The lightning bug is brilliant,
But 1t hasn't any mind;
1t scrambles through existence
With its headlight on behind.
"Good poetry" said the humorist,
"but I don't like the spirit Of it."

China in this proposed national po-

THREE SENATORS VISIT
STATE HOSPITAL AT
mASSILL0N

Massillon, o., March 1.-THE SEN
ate finance committee of the general
assembly visited the Massillon state
hospital Saturday. Those present
were Senators Vanover, Hypes and
Denman.
While at the hospital the committee
heard the requests of what is wanted
for the hospital during the next two
years. The requests have been made
formally in the trustees annual report
and a copy of this is in the hands of
the committee.
The house of the general assembly
is now considering a bill which car
ries $215,000 for the Massillon insti
tuition. This amount included $4,000
for the purchase of land, which is
desired by the trustees to purchase a
farm that adjOins the present hospital
farm, of four hundred acres. The
house bill does not carry al appro-
priation for a conservatory and this
fact was mentioned to the senators.
The committee is on trip over the
northern part of the state. The Mans
field reformatory has been visited.
After leaving Massillon the senators
visited the state hospital at Cleveland
and will go to Toledo, returning to
Columbus in time for Mondays ses-
sion of the general assembly.

RAILROAD RATES
Will Occupy the Attention of the Sen.
ate This Week-Tillman to
Make Speech.

Washington, March 1.-THE com
ing week in congress does not prom
ise much variety in the subjects to
be taken under consideration but in
so far as the senate is concerned it
may prove one of the most interest
ing of the entire session.
The railroad rate bill, which has
passed the house and is now the un-
finished business before the upper
body will be the storm center about
which an earnest discussion will rage.
The vast interests involved and the
firm aggressive attitude which Presi-
dent Roosevelt has taken in behalf of
such legislation will crystalline upon
the debate. Some time during the
week Mr.. Tillman, in charge OF the
measure will submit remarks upon
the recent message of the president,
criticizing congress for failing to
properly supply the interstate com.
merce commission with the sinews of
war in the investigation of alleged
railroad, oil and coal trusts, which it
recently ordered.
The house will have appropriation
bills under consideration.
A resolution will likely be adopted
by both houses, appropriating $4,000
and 100000 to aid the interstate
commerce commission in it's trust in
vestigatiIn.

Special TO Morning News,
Columbus, o., March 1.-THE Dem

In three. cities the saloons were clos

There seems to be no open fight on

LOOKS WAR[|KE.
What a Mine Worker
Leader Says Of Oper-
ators' Answer.

New York, March 11.-"It looks like
war"
In those words one of the leaders of
the Mine Workers of America sum
med up the situation after he had
perused the answer of the anthracite
operators to the workers which was
delivered to President John Mitchell
and the members of the scale commit
tee today. The answer is sore dis
appointment to the workers as they
bad hoped that the operators would
show disposition to treat with their
men but the answer is clear and dl-
rect refusel of every demand of the
men. Not only is this so but the OPP
orators have gone out of their way
to slap at the union and declare: I'VE
stand unalterably for the open shop,
and again decline to make an agree
ment with the United Mine Workers
Of America, an organization controlled
by a rival industry.
OBJECT TO BOYS.
The present constitution of the
United Mine Workers of America does
not present the most inviting induce
ments to the operators to enter into
contractural relation with it. Min
ers are represented in conventions
called for the consideration of strikes;
while boys do not go as delegates,
only one case having been noted, they
send delegates to such conventions;
and as the boys in the union in the
anthracite fields contitute about 20
per cent of the membership, it is cas-
lily seen that their delegates, who may
be obliged to act on instructions, may
lave the balance of power, and thus
carry vote for a strike when the
more conservative and experienced
members might be opposed to it."
All the other demands of the men
are refused in the same specific terms
and then the operators make a counter
proposition which would perpetuate
