SUPREME COURT DECLINES TO RE-
 VERSE OPINION
Cumberland Wing Loses In Long Litiea-
 tion--Re hearing is Deuied.

In the supreme court yester. day the Cumberland Presby
 terlan Church, or rather that contingent of it which opposed the union of the Cumberland wing with the Presbyterian Church, U. $. A., as effected through votes of the general as- sem plies of the two organizations four years ago, finally lost it's case and the matter of legality of the union is now definitely set tied in Arkansas with victory for those fovoring the merger.
 The case was that of Jake Sanders ys. J. k. Baggerly, and was passed upon originally by the court about six months ago, the court holding that the union of the two bodies had been legally effected, and that all the property of both branches of the ,church had passed by that act under the control of the Presbyterian Church, U. s. A., as per the pro. visions of the merger.
 But counsel for those opposing the union did not rest here. A lengthy petition for rehearing, setting out a score or more. of grounds in which error was al- I legged, was filed with the court, in the hope of gaining a new hearing and a possible reversal of the case. In finally passing on the matter the supreme court did not hand an additional opin on, but pr actically held it's formerI opinion 2 S an answer to the entire. petition for rehearing.
 The case came up from Nevada County, the little church at Artesian being involved. It was

originally established by the C u m b e r Ian d Presby terian Church, and was dedicated to the objects of this church organiza- tion. When the question of un- ion was voted upon and declared adopted, this congregation, along with numerous other Cum Der land congregations in this State, disSented. The elders of the congregation refused to give up possession of the church to the Presbyterian Church, U. $. A., |, contending that the act of union was not valid. An attempt by the other church element to take possession of the property in the name of the Presby trian Church, U. $. A., resulted in lawsuit in the local courts, and from the decision there the case was ap- pealed to the State supreme court, where the union was de- clared binding on all congregat- ions of both churches.
 It is estimated that the church property valued at from a half million to a million dollars is in volved in the merger, and at least a score of congregations.

INDIAN POLICE
 FORCE EFFICIENT Redmen Who Keep Their Own
 People in Order ON THE RESERVATIONS Members Are Graduates From Native schooIs-They Not Only Keep
 Order, But Enforce Laws
 of "White Father"

From the New York Evening Telegram.
 Washington, D. Gone of the finest police forces in the United States is composed of Indians and is used to keep the redmen on the reservation in order. The body of less than 1000 trained red men to which Uncle Sam. through his Indian agents, intrusts the safekesping of life and property on the reservations need yield the palm to no like organiza- tion in the country The agens to man say as much each year in their reports. Army officers. who in previous cam paigns have called on these men to aid in subduing unruly bands of Indian ma rauders. agree and Uncle Sam Is proud of them.
 For 900 year the government gets a corps of trained men mounted on their own ponies and with record for fidelity and intelligent performance of duty. They are the pick of their tribes; they are officered and directed in minor mat ters by the leaders of their bands; they are men willing to do any duty from fac ing a gun without fiinching to chastising a youngster who has played truant from school.
 Their Duties Are Numerous
 Each reservation has force of these police recruited from the tribe on the reservation. The men are selected and the chief Is appointed by the Indian agent or superintendent. The police are his men. under his direction. They are appointed to do or attempt anything and everything he bids them.
 They not only keep order among their own people, but they must safeguard the interests of the tribe against other tribes and trespassing palefaces They must see that the laws, whether made by the ..White Father at Washington or by the superintendent, are obeyed. They must prevent the sale of whisky, soothe the. spirit of unrest among the tribes men, enforce the attendance of children at the schools, arrest or eject trespass- CTS, corral and arrest such rowing bands of Indians as may threaten to stir up trouble and jail dangerous criminals whenever the occasion requires. They must have the instinct of the city sleuth and the trailing ability of their wild ancestors.
 ResembIe Police of Canada
 All in all, the Indian police force more nearly approaches the northwestern mounted police of the canadian govern ment than any other body. red or white.
 Most of the men chosen for the police are graduates of the Indian schools and men of a high order of intelligence. They are muscled. sturdy and enduring rne1, able to undergo forced mrches and withstand indictment weather
 They are uniformed in army blue jack cts and trousers, and leggings are fur nished them.

The huge Antoinette or the tiny Demoiselle has been his study, and if Radley ever decides to change the style of his air vehicle his chief mechanician will be able to take charge of 1t immediately and put it in condition to fly. M
 Admire the Bleriot and you have won a warm corner in the heart of More house. He will dilate at length upon it and show how 1t Is run. The Gnome engine, complex and delicate, is an open book to him. So well is he posted that he can explain the machine in language understood by anyone. He is well edu- cated, speaking French and German as well as his own language. He is thorough Engiishman, courteous and ready to answer every question.
 It is not generally known that an aero plane does not have to be made in a factory. wiilard's fiier was made on the road Much of the work was done in his rooms at hotels. Only the engine came intact from Curtiss' factory. It has been in use since July.
 The work of the mechanician is not ended when the flying machine is put up After every flight he hurries to the held and brings the machine rom the course Then fl must be inspected, and any thing that has worked loose during the time in the air must be frightened. Even while the flight is in progress the me- chanician keeps his eye on the aeroplane and often detects some damage before the operator becomes aware of 1t.
 When at rest in the shed the mechani- clan, with oil andsrag, goes over tho works. polishing them for hours at a tlme In this the French mechanicians seem to be more careful than the Amer jeans. s4ts
 The life of a mechanician is one of re- tirement and yet filled with deeds well wrought. He cares for tho plaything of the air almost hourly and asks no great CT reward than to see 1t make a success full fight. He is looking to the future. when aviation may become as common as motoring and he will be the chauffeus of the air.
