INDIANS RICH PEOPLE.
They Have Twenty Thousand Dollars
Per Capita.


At Pawhuska, OKLA, on Thursday
testimony was given before The Con-
gressional committee investigating
Indian affairs that each of the 1000
Usage Indians is worth $40, COO,
which, upon per capita basis con-
stitutes the richest people in the
world.
AS their property is held in re-
striction by the government the In
dians have used a great many law
yers, it was stated. One attorney
testified he represented 90 claimants,
who demanded that the government
place them on the Usage rolls, thus
giving them the right to twenty
thousand dollars worth of property.
The wealth of these claimants, If
they are successful, would amount
to four hundred and sixty thousand
dollars.
Another attorney testified he had
been employed to oppose the claims
on the ground that if allowed they
would decrease the wealth of the
tribe. Attorneys fees were paid TO
keep the Indians off the rolls and
fees were paid for putting them on.

MIMIC DRAMA GIVES RISE TO A
MURDER CHARGE.
Rival in Love Placed a Shell in the
Shotgun to be Used to "kilI An.
other Player

Jacob Wiakler is dead in Musko-
gee. Okla, and L. D. Booker is in
jail, charged with placing shell in
the gun that was used by Everett
Olden in a play in the Stone Bluff
schoolhouse. Olden declares the
gun he used was not loaded a few
seconds before he took it to the stage
for he examined it in the dressing
room.
Later Booker handed him the wea-
pom and the fact that it was loaded
became evident only when his play
ing partner fell dead with a load OF
shot. in his breast. Booker advised
Olden to surrender to the sheriff
but instead of Olden, Booker was
placed in jail, for it became evident
that he was rival to Wickie" IN
the suit for young woman's hand
and that the two young men had
quarreled.
The audience was intent upon the
scene, wherein, at the click OF ta.:
trigger on the shotgun, Winkler was
to fall to the floor. When the eli
max of the scene was reached Olden
raised the weapon level with Wink
ler's breast. Olden fell back in the
same alright as the audience when
an explosion reverberated through
the little hall and Winkler WAS sent
reeling half across the stage with
charge of bucks, III III his body The
entertainment ended abruptly.
Winklers father has been active
in obtaining evidence to prove his
son was the victim of plot. BA'k-
er took Olden to Jail at Wagner,
advising him to surrender to the
sheriff. Olden,, however, was not
placed in Jail and Winkler's relatives
made no complaint against him. The
coroner's Jury arrived al a ve:dic1
that Winkler's death was due to "'he
accidental discharge of shotgun in
the hands of Olden.''

DESPITE HIGH DUTIES.
The Use of Cotton Seed Displaces
the Use of Olive Oil.

American cottonseed oil, despite
the high duties against it, is steadily
making headway in the markets of
the world. Through the efforts Of
the bureau Of manufacturers Of the
department of commerce and labor.
some packers Of sardines in France
and Norway have promised to begin
experiments in packing fish in the
American product instead of olive
oil. Italy is able to undersell Spain
in the olive market. a report to
the department says. but Spain pro-
.hibits the importation OF cotton seed
as an edible, while Italy promotes it..
The domestic use Of cottonsecd oil
in Italy, as we'll us in Turkey, causes
nearly all the native oil tolive) to

HOW TO KEEP MILK
BOARD OF HEALTH ISSUES IN
STRUCTIVE BULLETIN.
Would Prevent Many Diseases That
Are Now Communicated by the Use
OF Milk.

| Under the caption How to Keel
Milk Wholesome" the State Boarl
of health, in it's bulletin recently pub
lished on Clean Milk in the Home,
says that Immediately before milk,
| ing the cow should be curiel and the
uder and teatS washed with soa;
and water, rinsed and wiped atS
with a clean, dry, fresh-laundere
towel; a chain should be fastened
across the stall under the cows belly
to prevent her from lying down until
milkcd.
THE sta BILE should be airy, should
be of one story only, whitewashed
inside as often as soiled, and should
have a watertight floor, preferably
of cement, in the room used for milk
ing. Previous to milking, the floor
and walls should be made wet to
keep down dust. There should be nc
loft or anything else above the milk
ing room. but the roof. During milk
ing hours the DOCS Gn-. ",luo,. .
should be closed.
THE mixer should be free from
disease, particularly OF the hands,
nose, throat and lungs-he should
not handle the milk if he has Sick
ness of any infectious nature az mis-
home.
After cleaning the cow and
sprinkling the stable he should wash
and dry his hands, using clean wa
ter and soap and a fresh laundered
tawel-not the same one he wiped
the cow with.
milking should be done with dry
hands and teats, nothing whatever,
particularly milk, being used as
lubricant.
utensils should be the same Us
those used by the best dairies. They
can be easily obtained. Seemless,
narrow top milking pals are the
best.
All vessels should be washed in
warm water and soda, rinsed in boil
ing water and set upside down un-
der mosquito netting in the sunlight
or fresh air. Immediately before
use they should be rirsed with boil-
ing mot warm) water.
The milk should be imediately
removed from the stable to closed
screenedroonl and strained through
cloths kept for that purpose. The
u.oths should lie washed and boiled
imediately before using. Even the
family milk had best be kept in reg
ular dairy bottles or sealed fruit jars.
Put the milk imediately into ice WI
ter after strainiug-get it as cold
as possible, then keep on ice contln-
uously and uninteruptedly until rea-
dy for use. 1t is best to have several
small jars than to have the milk all
in one-in this way a jar once open
ed may be entirely emptied and the
remaining quantity Of milk is not.
contaminated. Bottles and jars
should be kept prepared as explain
ed for utensils. II they are put in
cold water and then carefully
brought to boil, keeping them on
tine side, they may be sterilized with
out cracking.

Superintendent Weigel OF the

terceiving many reports Of disaster
I to various parties of his 500 employ
es, posted i bulletin in his office

5l14 of the: men,; and also stated his
grave concern for the safety of Ran
ger Joseph B. Hahn and "a men who
were. surrounded by fire Saturday
night in the forest on the Big Fork
of the Couer d'Alene river, near
where another party lost 1S men.
Hahn was for four years the best
athlete at the Washington State col
.1ege at Pullman, renowned foot
ball and baseball player.
The charred bodies of twenty fire
fighters were found at Seltzer creek
in the St. Joe country.
Two hundred Japanese dragged
themselves to Avery, Idaho, and. told
of the death of their companions.
The twelve men, the employees OF
the Chicago, Milwaukee and Puget
Sound railroad, had gone out to fight
fire and had been surrounded by
flames, only two escaping death.
The, rangers missing in the Thom-
son Fall country of Montana were
not heard from Wednesday.
The number of deaths in the State

All of these are in the Pond d'Oreile
valley near Newport. One Of the VIC
tins, Mrs. Ernest Reinhardt wife OF
a rancher. was the only woman who
is known to have been burned to
death.
Nearly all of the dead were fire,
fighters. The wholesale loss of life
occurred Saturday afternoon and
night when great numbers of men
were striving ; to check the flames
The names of many Of the dead
will never be known.
When the groups of fire fighters
we're overwhelmed the camps were
also destroyed. The clothes were
burned off the bodies of the men
and the bodies of the dead were
often so charred that searchers step
ped on them, thinking they We're
pieces of burned logs. The fire OBJ
liberated the trails and the burned
country is difficult to go through be-
cause of fallen trees.
s With the towns out of danger and
the settlers fed to places of safety,
the rangers were able to devote
themselves entirely Thursday to the
saving Of the trees: Various fires
were isolated and will die out for
lack of fuel.
g In Montana rain and snow fell,
checking the flames. In Spokane the
sun shone clear and even in Wallace
the smoke cloud was lifted.
r No one ventures to estimate the
financial loss as the extent of the
burned area is not fully known.

 TOUCHED HIM.
Police Differ With Him, However, and Are Working in Attempt to
 Round Out the Case.

The police and detectives of the city were busy yesterday attempting to locate the thief who secured $710 in bank notes from M K Kearins of Catskill, N. r., who reported a rob bery to the police Sunday night
 The police were positive that ne gro woman was responsible for the robbery and Chief Moore caused one negro dive to be raided in an attempt to locate the thief.
 Yesterday Kearins stated that it was not a negro woman who robbed him. but that his roll must have been taken by some white man, who he re- members slightly iostled him on the street as he was en route home.
 The theory that Kearins has of the robbery, however, is not coincident with that held by the police, and Chief Moore is not so sure but that Blanche Flowers, a negress arrested on sus- picion. but who Kearins failed to iden- tify as the negro woman who had talk ed to him, is not guilty. This negress is known to have played a part in similar robberies, and to have quick change of costume ready after every big touch"
