DISSATISFIED RED MEN.


Indians of Oklahoma FESTIVE Under
Present Conditions.
The Indians of Oklahoma-the
are extremely FESTIVE because of the
conditions they have to live under
there. These Indians formerly lived
under the provisions of the treaties
they had with the United States. but
when Oklahoma was made a State the
treaties became imperative, and the
Indians were considered the same as
other citizens of the new common
wealth That's Just what the red mex
do not want They claim that they do
not understand the white mans laws,
and that many exactions and imposi-
tfons are practiced on them by law
officers for alleged attractions of the
State laws, about which they know
nothing One of the commonest COM
plants that the Indians make is that
when they fail to work the country
roads in the vicinity of their farms or
pay an equivalent in money, the off
GERS levy ON their stock and take it
away. They cannot understand this,
and want none of the white man S
laws.
Conditions are so bad in the Creek
nation said John Burrus, of Okla
homa City, recently, that it would
not be surprising to me to see the In
dams start an armed uprising at any
time, though they are now intelligent
enough to know that it would end only
in disaster to themselves"

Chinese Secretly Planning over

Chinese Secretly Planning over
throw of Manchu Dynasty.
A New York merchant, H. H. Sid
dons, who has a large trade in China,
and who has been in every treaty port
in the empire, recently said that the
Chinese in this country, who are
refugees from their own country, and
for that matter the yellow men in
many other countries, are secretly
planning the overthrow of the Manchu
dynasty. According to Mr.. Siddons,
they are hop lg to place a native royal
line on the peacock throne in Pekin.
Thousands of members of secret So
cieties m China who had to leave that
country because the government was
after their heads for plotting against
the Pekin regime. are living in the
United States, England, and other
countries, including many of the South
American republics and Mexico, and
belong to the Chinese Empire Reform
Association, which has for one of it's
objects the overthrow of the present
dynasty and the expulsion of foreign
ers from China. These Cinnamon be-
Tieve that the present division of their
country into spheres of influence by
European nations has been due to the
weakness of the PelIin government,
and they believe that China will be
actually divided up among the Euro
pean nations in the next ten years I'M
less there be a change of government
in Pekin. These people have been for
years gathering an immense fund III

time is ripe to buy arms and ships

Baby SIeepIess sSidh Awful Itching.
when or baby was seven weeks
old he broke ont with what we
thought was heat but which gradually
grew worse. We called in "a doctor.
He said it was eczema and from that
time we doctored six months with
three of the best doctors in Atchison
but he only got worse. His face, head
and hands were a solid sore There
was no end TO the suffering for him.
We had to tie his little hands to
keep him from scratching. He never
knew what it was to sleep well from
the time he took the disease until he
was cured. He kept us awake all
hours of the night and his health
wasn't what you would call good. We
tried everything but the right thing.
Finally 1 got set of the Cuticura
Remedies and I am pleased to say
we did not use all of them until he
was cured We have waited a year
and a half to see if it would return
but it never has and to-day his skin

be. l hope Cuticura may save some

A Cruel Locke.

Oswald, a witty and original Pari-
sian, had a mania for practical iok-
ing. He was very amusing to his
friends, but when his talents were eX-
erted to avenge some wrong there
was more bitterness than fun in his
wit One evening when a MAN who
had not treated him politely gave re-
ception he avenged himself cruelty.
The man was slightly defornled. All
the hunchbacks of Paris, 500 in num-
Der, presented themselves at his re-
cepticn They had received notices
from Oswald that if they should go to
this address on this evening they
would learn of legacy which had
been left them.

tenant Who Won Promotion.
Kassim Pasha whe1 minister of war
for Egypt was very particular in re
gard to the personal appearance Of his
officers and issued stringent orders
that they should never appear I'M
shaven in public One day he met
upon the street a lieutenant who had
bearded the pasha and disregarded
his orders "To what regiment do
you belong?" demanded the Indignant
minister. Ito the regiment,
at Abasseuh,' replied the frightened
Lieutenant Get into my carriage at
once so that l can carry you to the
encampment and have you publicly
punished" was the stern command
which followed.
The young man obeyed, and the
twain rode along gloomily enough for
some time, when the pasha stopped
his carriage and entered an office
where he would be detained for some
time ON business Selling the oppor-
tunity, the cu1prit sprang from the
vehicle, dartea into a neighburing
BARRIERS stall and .regained his post
before the return Of his iailer minus
hrs beard. Fer the remainder of the
route the officer buried his face in his
hands and seemed the picture of ap-
ppehensiOn.
Abasseuh was reached at last, and
all the officers were assembled to wit
ness the degradation of their cCm-
rade, who all the while kept wen in
the rear of his chief. Come forward
you son of a dog!" cried the irate
pasha, when there stepped before him
an officer with q face as clean as a
baby's and a look of the most supreme
innocence. His excellency gave one
look of blank establishment and then
with an appreciative smile breaking
over his war WORN features, turned tC

soar Grovyyvs ON Trees.

Side by side grow the soap tree and
the tallow tree. The soap tree yields
a product from which is manufactured
the purest article of soap that is pos
sible to be made. Indeed, the pulp
of the berry is a natural soap, and
will make a latber almost like the
article. The soap berry
tree is now creating widespread inter
est and the berries are being imported
from Algiers and China.
1t will pay to plant the trees and
look after their cultivation. The
product of the tallow tree also enters
into the making of soap, and the two
together make a nice combination, and
their cultivation should be looked af-
ter by those interested in new indus
tries. Besides soap, the soap berries
make very fine oil, and when the vir-
tues of the tallow tree are fully known
it may also yield fine and profitable
oil. The young man who nav plants
out a ten or twenty-acre orchard o.

A Pert RepIy.

a story told of Sir John Fisher and
Lord Charles Beresford when both
were stationed in the Mediterranean
will bear repeating. A competition
had been held at Malta for a prize an
nually presented by Sir John. 1t is
known as the Malta cup, and having
so far always been won by a crew
belonging to the admirars flagship, it
was fully expected by Sir John that
this record would be maintained. On
this particular occasion. however. a
crew of the Families, commanded by
Lord Charles Beresford, carried it off
instead. A day or two later the fleet
was practicing maneuvers and Ad-
miral Fisher whose reputation lis
stern disciplinarian is we'll known,
was dissatisfied with the performance
Of the Families. He signaled accord
ingly to Its commander the message,
Explain your reason for being late in
executing maneuver" Without a mo-
ment's delay the answer came, We
are towing the Malta cup.'-Dundee

EXCELLENT TRADE IN WESTERN
CANADA.
Splendid Crops, Big Prices, and
Prosperous Outlook for the Fu-

Splendid Crops, Big Prices, and
Prosperous Outlook for the Fu-
ture.
Throughout all of Canada, and es-
pecially in the western provinces of
Canada, there is buoyancy in every
line Of business that is fully warrant
ed by every condition. The crops of
the past year were what was expected,
and the prices for grain OF all kinds
put the farmers in a class by them
selves. Many of them are independ-
ent, and many others have got we'll
started on the road. The latest reports
are that seeding is well under way in
almost every district, and the pros
poets are that vastly larger area than
that under crop last year will be seed
ed early this spring. In the Leth-
bridge district, in Southern Alberta,
steam and gasoline outfits, hundreds Of
them, are breaking up the prairie at
a tremendous pace, but they work
night and day. As soon as it becomes
dark gangs are changed, head light
attached, and on, on through the night
until the first streak of dawn, these
giant monsters with their seven or
eight gangs of breaking plows, keep up
the work. Then the more modest farm
er is putting in the longest hours pos
sfble with his teams of horses or oxen.
And what will the country be like in
August, when these fields have become
yeliowed with the literally golden
grain There will be one vast expanse
Of wheat field. And there will be
market for it, because It is the best
grain grown, and the demand will be
everywhere AS previously lntimated,
business throughout Western Canada
is sound and good. The grain produG
ton of 1909 has been the great factor
in establishing the reputation OF West
ern Canada, and 1T is worth talking
about It surpassed all previous rec
ords, both In regard to quality and
| quantity, and such an achievement
was by no means easy. The limit has
| not been reached, and a large average
| increase mar he expected during the
| next ten years There will be odd sea
| sons when a falling off will occur, and
it is the falling off that causes alarms
| and panics in the commercial world.
The plains have done their duty SO Tar
in the output OF grain and it would be
| reasonable to make occasional alkow-
ances for slowing up. The faster the
rate of increase is now, the sharper
will be the check when the production
| diuiniShes But there are some I'm
reasonable people who wonder why the
growth of one year is not continued
during the next, and at an even faster
rate. These same unreasonable people
are the ones who see flaws in the sit
uation as soon as an indication is given
that the startling advances have mot
