BALL GAME OF cHEROKEEs
important Function Is Preceded by
Song and Dance Which Lasts
All Niaht.

The ball game as played by the
Cherokees is as important to them as
football or any other popular game is
to other people. The eastern band Of
Cherokees live Oh the Qualla reser-
walton in western North Carolina.
The neighborhood in which I live,
writes an Indian girl in the Red Man.
is divided into four main sections,
namely: Yellow Hill, Soco, Big Cove
and Birdtown The Indians living in
one of these sections will challenge
those living In another to a game Of
ball. They choose their players and
agree upon the time and place for
playing the game. 1t is generally
played in an open field far different
from the well-graded field upon which
the game of football is played.
The evening before the game the In
diaNs, the women included, hold
dance in their respective sections Of
the country These dances are held in
the open air, usually near some small
stream. The women do the singing
while the men dance In their songs
they make all kinds Of remarks about
those Of the opposing side. These
dances continue all night long. From
the time Of the dances until after the
games the players are not allowed to
eat any food.
The following day the people from
the different sections gather at the ap-
pointed place to witness the game
They either sit or stand around the
edge Of the field The ball players
each have two sticks similar to those
used in the game Of lacrosse, only
smaller. The ball is tossed up in the
center Of the field and the game be-
gins. The object is to get It around
two poles placed at each end OF the
field certain number Of times. They
cannot pick up the ball in their hands.
The players who succeed IN getting
the ball around the poles at the end
Of the field the greatest number of
times win the game.-Red Man Mag

ATTACK LIKE TIGERS.

In fighting to keep the blood pure
the white corpuscles attack disease
germs like tigers. But often germs
multiply SO fast the little fighters are
overcome. Then see pimples, boils,
eczema salt-rheum and sores multiply

condition demands Electric Bitters to
regulate stomach, liver and kidneys
and to expel poisons from the blood.

cease to exist. This court had
been accustomed to meet in 276
different places. 1t is one OF the
reforms provided for i'll the new
judiciary code enacted March 3,

Another change provided is the
limitations upon the salary OF the
clerk of the court not to exceed
$500 per year, and the increase
of the salary of the chief justice to
SIS, 900 per annum and the associ-
ate justices $I4, 500 per annum.
Jurors in the United States court

A NOVEL GOOD SAMARITAN
He Carries on a Great Work Among
Criminal Glasses Under Cover
of Silence.

Somewhere in this broad country
of ours there is a man quietly and
silently working among the fallen and
degraded ones of earth and accom-
plishing wonderful results. He is a
man of stern initiative with great
courage of conviction and the meth
DDS he uses in doing his work are
simple and essentially logical.
For years he has been moving
among criminals of all descriptions.
raising them to a respectable posi-
ton and starting them again along
the path Of virtue. His method,
little peculiar, is very simple. He
meets the criminal on his own level,
extracts a confession from him, gets
his confidence and treats him as an
equal For drug fiends, drunkards
and that class of criminals he OBJ
tains medical treatment. establishes
them in good physical health. gets
them Job and places them on a
footing level with the active. self
respecting world. They respect this
treatment and treat him square In
return. and seldom ever do they go
back to their former life of crime
This kind of work our novel Good
Samaritan considers recreation and
adventure. and the good works he
has done along these lines can never
be estimated Seldom does he fail in
converting case and the most
unioue side of his methods Is that
he entertains these poor fallen ones
at his home with all the honor and
respect due TO men and women 81
honor and good reputation. The drunk
ard. drug hend, safe cracker, Mag
dalen and professional crook are all
represented among his converts.
The strangest thing about this
man ia that he refuses to let his
whereabouts or identity be known TO
the general public. He prefers to
work silently and unknown TO fame.
