house divided it's strength on the even
Vote of 81 for the amendment and 81

The vote in the senate was so close
on the bill to accept Andrew Carnegie's 3

university, that Hawkins changed his
vote from aye to nay that he might
move a reconsideration. His change
tied the vote. but the presiding Of

HOLLOW HORN BEAR
AT INDIAN B JREAU
ASKING AlNU|T|ES
Demands $4,000 Copies OF
His Picture on $5 Ger
tificates.

Washington. Feb. Am Indian who
looks like real ready money has come
to town. His name is Hollow Horn
Bear. and he is the chief orator OF the
Rosebud Sioux tribe of South Dakot3js
Hollow Horn Bear is reputed to be
the handsomest and most typical IN
looks like ready money. His picture
adorns the 50 silver certificate. 1t was
put there because the connoisseurs in
Indian peatuy regarded him as the
finest Indian now extant.
Hollow Horn Bear is 50 years old
and as straight as an Indian ought to
be. He hasn't a gray hair in his head
and there is enough hair to make a
mattress. In addition to being beaut-
full, Hollow Horn Bear is long with the
white mans game" as he calls the
art of conversation In truth. he has
most white men lashed securely to the
bowsprit and the ship sinking head on.
when it comes to the art of talk. He
comes every once in a while to talk a
few hundred thousand out of the
stony-hearted bureau of Indian affairs.
That's what he wants on the present
trip.
A Fortune Delayed.
The bureau has been holding out on
his tribe some 100000 of money which
the tribe thinks ought to be distributed
to minor children. 1t represents part
payment for the lands of the Rosebud
reservation. the department maintain
ing that it would be a waste of the
money to turn over their shares to the
minor children. The law, however,
provides for the distribution. and the
Indians want the cash. Hollow Horn
Bear hopes to take home about 10000
copies of his picture on the SIS certifi-
Gates.
Along with Hollow Horn Bear is a
delegation of Sioux, one of whom is
Chief Good Voice. Oddly enough. Good
Voice is no orator at all; he grunts oc-
casionally. but Hollow Horn Bear does
the talking. Reuben Quick Bear High
Pipe. John Colombo. Eagle Horse and
Stranger Horse are the others of the
delegation.

TOXIC STIRRED BY
A SOCIAL SCANDAL

London, Jan. 29.-The Toxic corre-
spondent Of the Standard relates a so
cial scandal indirectly involving the
imperial house. which he says is caus-
ing a great stir in the Japanese cap
ital.
The story is that Count Todos who is
% years old. was sent to England two
years ago to complete his education.
While there he married an English
woman. His family. upon learning this,
peremptorily ordered the count to re-
turn to Japan, which he did, leaving his
wife in England.
When he arrived home he found his
famil., which shares the traditional
aristocratic repugnance to mixed mar
riages. had in his absence started ne
gotiations for his marriage with Prin-
cess Take. a member of the collateral
branch of the imperial family. The ad-
vances was favoraby received, owing
to the exalted rank and good record OF
rodos and the counts divorce from his
English wife Immediately was resolved
upon. This is comparatively easy in
Japan and the idea was Immediately
carried out, without consulting the
wife. Count Todo. who now was free.
formally applied for the princess hand
and in due course the emperor sane
toned the alliance between them. Con-
gratulations poured in upon the Todos.
when the Toxic newspapers, hearing
the facts. inconsiderately printed them.
General CONSERVATION followed. The
mobiles disciplinary council investigated
and found the charges made by the edi-
tor were true. The emperor immedi-

formers patent of nobility was with

products of this state. Not only is the
gentleman Il successful farmer but he
is one of the inventive geniuses of this
country. He is a marvel at construct
ing labor saving farm machinery, and
his workshop contains many useful ar
tcles in that line that are not OH the
market for lack of the necessary means
to exploit them. His latest invention,
and one that he has been working on
for some time. is the wireless corn
planter. which is rapidly nearing COM
pletion. and which will, he says. be
ready for exhibition by April 1. This
