4 REBCFF TO CHINA,
Russia Rejects Manchur1an
Railzcoy PROPOSAL

Picking. March 4.-The Russian govern
nent. in a formal note submitted to the
| Chinese Foreign Board rejects entirely
China's proposal for the construction of the
Aigun and Chin-Chow railroad.
The Russian note includes the counter
proposal of Russia for the extension OF the
kalgan railroad by foreign capital TO
Baikal. Russia building the Siberian sec
ton.
The counter proposal, as well as Russia s
rejection Of the Aigun and Chin-Chow plan
is based on promise which the Russian
government alleges that China gave in 1898
| that she would not construct any railways
north Of Picking without first consulting
the Russian government.
China is not cognizant of this alleged
promise. and feels obliged to delay its
reply TO ST Petersburg until the agreement
asserted is proved or disproyed.
Russia's action is a matter of concern
to the governments of both the United
States and Great Britain. In his recent
note to the powers Secretary Knox. in ad-
diJion to proposing the naturalization of
the Manchurian railways, announced that
a syndicate composed of Americans and
EneIishmen ha Il obtained from China
concession for the construction of a rail-
road from Aigun. in Northern Manchuria

of Great Britain and the United States in

tonal on the approval Of both Russia and
Japan. buj without admitting Russia's right
to prohibit the concession by China.
According 70 to-days advices the Rus

prohibit the enterprise and has arbitrarily
rejected the Aigun proposal, which. while

MANY WOULD MARRY ED GREEN

Write to Hettys Son.

Mrs. Hetty Green's son, Edward,
who is a Texas millionaire and owns
one, two or three railroads. said
some time ago that he was a bache-
lor because he didn't believe he
could find girl who would love him
for himself alone; that he was of
the opinion that any woman who
would marry him would do it for his
money Since that time Mr.. Green
mas received upwards of seven thou
sand letters, purporting to be from
beautiful young women, each writer
declaring that she would marry him
on the spur of the moment, even if
he were not worth ten cents. That
means there are at least seven thou
sand young women who read the
story of Mr.. Green's bachelorhood.

A RED SKIN CELEBRATION
BIG PO-WOW IN OKLAHOMA ON
THE FOURTH OF July.
Lawyers, Doctors, Preachers and Pol

Tribes Throughout Country.

Lawyers, Doctors, Preachers and Pol
iticians Among Delegates From
Tribes Throughout Country.
One of the biggest pow-wows of
native Americans ever held is sched-
uled to take place at Muskogee.
Okla, on the Fourth of July next.
1t will be attended by representatives
of all the tribes throughout the coun-
try. Buffalo Bill is to be the master
of ceremonies, and Pawnee Bill and
number of cowboys who know the
Indians and have their entire conf
dence will be his assistants. The
meeting will have no special signifi-
canoe aside from the celebration of
the national birthday and to afford
the Indians and their friends the OPP
{portunity for talking things over
among themselves.
Among the Indian delegates there
will be lawyers, doctors, teachers and
| politicians. There will be Senator
| Owen of Oklahoma and Senator Cur
tbs of Kansas, both of whom have In
dian blood in their veins, and Rep
resentative Carter of Oklahoma, who
J is also of Indian descent. The num-
| Der of lawyers, doctors and teachers
among the Indians is quite consid-
cradle, and the degree of literacy
among the red people is said to be
quite gratifying.
One thing that is expected to be
shown in striking way at the meet
| ing is that the race is not dying out
nor is it deteriorating physically
Federal statistics show that there
are more Indians in the country than
there were ten years ago, and that
for several years the birth rate has
exceeded the death rate The idee
has got abroad that the Indian
weakened and vitiated by contact
with civilization, was fast following
the buffalo to extinction. That is not
correct. Some of the country's best
athletes are Indians. The Carlisle
football team has frequently put it
all over" as good of the bone and
muscle of the white men as could be
brought together, and one of the
fleetest is Longboat, the Indian.
Not only are the Indians better
than holding their own as to num-
bers, but they are gradually accept
ing civilization and growing up
with the country" They are accum-
ulating property, tilling farms and
patronizing the schools. They are
putting aside their blankets for the
clothing of the white man, and NOV
ing out of their teepees into substan-
tial frame houses. The natural love
Of the horse remains with them,
though a great many of them are
riding bicycles and some of them in
automobiles. The steam engine and
the telephone are not mysteries to
them, and hundreds of Indians click
typewriters daily.
The celebration at Muskogee will
doubtless be picturesque and inter.
esting, but there won't be any ghost
dance or fire-water feature about it.
Some of the young and educated
bucks and squaws may indulge in the
waltz and the two-step, but that will
be probably the extent of the dane
ing. There will be feasting and
peace-smoking, with cigars in the
place Of the calumet.
