GOLDEN DAYS IN THE STRIP.
1t Was When the Cherokees Got Pay
for Their Lands.

1t Was When the Cherokees Got Pay
for Their Lands.
Inc Cherokee nation literally ''rolled
IN money" when the S6,500,00O received
from the sale of the Cherokee strip was
d1sbursed among the tribal citizens in
1894, says the Kansas City Star. The
per capita share was $265.70. The pay
ment was made usually with two 500
bills, one $50, one $40, one So and 10
cents In silver The money was dis
bursed by 'Zeke" Starr, treasurer, and
Henry Effort, assistant treasurer of the
nation. Most of the Indians were in
debt, and creditors swarmed in towns
where the payments were made. T. A.
Latta, who attended these payments,
in recalling incidents lately, said:
Much has been told of the dishon-
esty of the Indian, but in this payment
there were many examples Of integ-
rity. At Tahlequah a full-blood wom-
an, perhaps 60 years old, a widow, drew
for eleven participants in the fund.
She had traded with many of the mer-
chants who sat at the tables between
which she had passed After the mon
ey had been counted out to her she
swept the entire amount into her apron
and, holding a corner in each hand, she
passed from trader to trader, pausing
before each until each had taken a suf
f1cient amount to balance her indebted
ness. Not once did she count the
change or investigate the account. She
was honest and concious of her own
integrity, did not question the honesty
Of another. This was only one case.
There were scores like it, and, though
not pleasant to relate, the confidence
thus placed was sometimes betrayed.
There are cases where the greedy cred
itor took a handful and gave back no
change
"a mixed blood Of some astuteness
came to settle his account with a tr2der.
In looking over his account he discov-
cred the charge Of a side saddle
amounting to $15 He had not made
such a purchase and had the bill rem
edied without trouble, the willy old
trader merely telling his bookkeeper to
place the item to John Does account.
The bookkeeper himself is authority for
the statement that in this way that self
same saddle was collected for eighteen
times"
In Claremore bankers were in at
tendance from Coffeyville, seeking de-
posts for their banks One store in
the town had a safe of modern dimen-
sions and security and this store was
headquarters for bankers and collect
ors alike. The merchant himself had
a mere bagatelle Of some $4,000 on
the payment. After supper the count
ing room was filled with collectors and
bankers. A parlor table was called in
to use and money as high as ones chin
was stacked On every available inch.
It was the minute for verifying the
memorandum of the day. On one par
ticular evening there was on this ia
BILE at one time close to half a million
dollars In crisp new treasury notes.
Laps full Of money? There were wag-
onloads of it. 1t was no uncommon
thing to change a hundred-bill for s.
cent sale. And the scarcity of change
was responsible for the custom Of
charging % cents for changing a bill Of
that denomination.

FEARFUL SMASH-UP ON THE GREAT
NORTHERN ROAD NEAR La
KOTA, N. D.
ORIENTAL FLYER WRECKED
Six Persons Are Known to Have Per-
ished--Train Was Filled with
Passengers.

LAKOTA, N. D., April 15.-The
Great Northern Oriental limited fast
coast train which left st. Paul 10 o'clock
Sunday morning, was wrecked and to-
tally burned at 1:20 this morning.
Six Persons Dead
Six persons are known to have been
killed in the disaster and it is not known
how many more bodies are still in the
ruins. The accident occurred four miles
from here near the small village of Bart
lett, within half a mile of where the
same train was wrecked last fall.
Entire Train Leaves Track.
1t is the worst wreck that ever oc-
Cured in North Dakota. The cars com
prising the train were destroyed with
the exception of the standard sleeper and
observation car. The train was running
at a speed of thirty-fve miles an hour
and the cause of the accident is unde-
termined. All cars left the track on the
left side.
Many thrilling escapes are reported
and numerous acts of heroism are told
by the survivors. The engine lies across
the line dividing Nelson and Ramsey
counties. The mail car passed the en-
CINE and burned in Ramsey county.
Mail Clerk Is Hero.
Mail Clerk Jones of Grand Forks,
was killed, but was taken from the car
by Mail Clerk Fodness, who entered the
burning car three times to rescue the
body and only succeeded after he him.
self had been severely burned about the
head. The body was carried over into
Nelson county where it was found by
Coroner Cowper of Michigan, when he
arrived. The body is now at this place
where an inquest will be held.
Many Persons on Train.
The train carried a large number of
passengers and that there were not more
fatalities is miraculous. Every car eX-
cept the observation car left the track,
but the sleeper was pulled on again be-
fore the flames reached it. The cars
went over a 10-foot embankment and a
few moments after the accident gas
tank exploded setting fire to the wreck.
The report of the explosion was heard
for a distance of four miles.
Kill All in Smoker.
The uninjured worked heroically and it
is reported all but three were removed.
All those killed were in the front part of
the smoker, which was telescoped by the
express car in front of it.
Passengers give special praise to News
Agent w. II. Greene of ST. Paul who
worked heroically in rescuing injured
and helping those in the wreck. He HIM
self was considerably injured.
As soon as word of the accident was
received a special train was sent from
Devils Lake with doctors, and another
was made up here which ran to Michi-
gan, n. D., and got Coroner Cowper and
took all physicians from Michigan.
