Two British Surgeons to Determine
Effect of High Attitudes.
DR.. ]. A. Haldane and DR.. Gordon
Douglas of Oxford university, who are
to conduct a series of experiments on
top of Pixies peak to determine the
effect of high attitudes ON the human
blood, arrived at Colorado Springs re-
Gently and are arranging the compli-
Gated apparatus with which they ex-
pect to find whether the number Of
red corpuscles increases at high alti-
tudes.
They will be assisted in their eXper-
iments, which will extend over six
weeks, by DR.. Yambell Henderson of
Yale and DIR. E c. Schneider of Colo
RADIO college. The experiments are be-
ing made under the auspices of the
Royal Society For Scientific Research.
Last summer DR.. Haldane and DR..
Douglas carried on experiments on the
west coast of Africa, but they were
not satisfactory, as they could not re-
main on the barren peak long enough
to make tests of any value.
This year it was decided TO conduct
the tests on Pixies peak because of
the ease with which the apparatus
can be placed on the summit by the
cog road After the party finishes

The election Of Governor Hoke Smith
as United States senator from Geor-

who was an interesting figure there
sixteen years ago. He was then secre-
tury of the interior In the cabinet of
President Grover Cleveland. In the
Georgia delegation they still recall
those good old days when Secretary
Smith filed every place he had to
I'LL with Georgians. They say that
you couldn't throw a stick in the de-
partment without hitting a Georgia
man.
One day, they relate, the late Sem
ator voorhees,, who had been vainly
trying to get a place for an Indiana
man, came down the corridor as Secre-
tary Smith came up The senator was
whistling Marching Through Georgia"
In disconsolate way. That tune was
not pleasing to Hoke Smiths sensitive
Georgia ears, and he looked at voor-
hees in reproachful way

asked Hoke, and his tone was bur-
dened with reproach.

Five years ago Hoke Smith decided
that he would run for governor as the
anti-railroad candidate. He was nomi-
mated after one Of the hottest fights
In the state. Two years later his enc
mics stole march on him and nomi-
mated Joe Brown over him by a mar
row margin. Last year Smith again
entered the primaries and beat Brown
by decisive vote.
Senator Elect Smith now says he will
not resign the governorship until GER

New York, July 1S.-The recent Nor
wegian trip of the Rev. Anna NJ. Shaw,
president of the Women's Suffrage
League in America, has opened a par
ty issue in that country which will fig
ure in the next election and ultimately
be settled by parliament
DR.. Shaw's supporters had hoped
that she would be able to help them
break down opposition in Norway to
the elevating Of women to the clergy.
When DR.. Shaw left Copenhagen the
subject was still being hotly discussed,
and it seemed likely that 1t would be
made an issue in the next campaign.
The opposing faction to Dr.. Shaw
took the stand that while women may
have the right to vote in Norway they
may not hold Office in the army, navy
or the church.

INDIANS ARE
PROGRESSIVE.
Three Tribes Petition For Com
mission Government.
They DO NOT LIKE LAWYERS.

Have a Trust Fund Of Six Million DOL
lars-one Indian Wants His People
Kept as Far From Gambling and
Whisky as the East Is From the
West.
The affiliated Kiowa, Comanche and
Apache Indian tribes are not to be
outdone by their white brothers and
are establishing commission form Of
government. This follows the death
OF Quanah Parker, chief Of the Co
manches, to whom a successor may
not be elected, though White Parker,
his son, had been talked of for the
place. Congress will be asked to ap-
prove the administration of tribal at
fairs by proposed business commit
tee or commission, composed of nine
members-four Comanches, three Kio-
was and two Apaches. The matter
was thoroughly discussed at q coun-
Gil Of the Indians attended by Lieu
tenant Ernest Stecker, United States
indian agent, and Representative Scott
Ferris Of the Fifth Oklahoma congress
sional district. The commission is to
be composed only Of young men, active
and capable in tribal affairs.
For several years, unknown to most
of the Indians, there has been COM
mittee or advisory board cooperating
with the Indian agent. Its members
were Eschiti, limbo, Mamsookawat,
Comanches; Ahpeahtone, Lucius Ait
san, Kiowas, and Apache John and
Mizizoomdi, Apaches. De Loss Lone
Wolf, Kiowa, and a graduate Of Car
Isle, and White Parker, Comanche.
are to be added to the commission.
Among the Indians who made speech
es at the council were Comanche Jack.
Ahpeahtone, old Chief Lone Wolf of
the Ktowas and De Loss Lone Wolf.
Comanche Jack landed squarely on
the lawyers, saying that the Co.
manches did not want a legal repre-
sentative, as the money for an attor-
ney's salary was merely wasted.
George Hunt, the Kiowa Interpreter,
wanted laws that would keep the In
dams apart from gambling and whis-
ky, ''as far IS the east is from the
west" He whacked the Comanches
by saying that they were the worst
gamblers of ALL
That the commission" idea seems to
be a good thing in the administration
of the affairs Of these affiliated tribes
Is indicated by a further proposal to
create what is known as a "competen-
cy" commission, to be composed of
three white business men, chosen by
the secretary of the interior. This plan
is in operation among certain other
Indian tribes. 1t is intended that this
competency commission, if authorized,
shall pay $40 monthly to each Indian,
in addition to what he receives from
what is called the grass lease" fund.
This payment among the Kiowas,
Comanches and Apaches would amount
to about 100000 a month, there being
about 3,100 Indians, Of whom 1900 are
Comanches. If the tribal funds in time
should show exhaustion the competen-
cy commission then would sell eighty
acres of each 160 acre allotment to
replenish the fund, leaving a home
stead of eighty acres. Representative
Ferris is reported as favoring the
scheme.
These affiliated Indians have total
tribal trust fund of $6,O0O000, of which
S4,5OOO00 is in the United States treas
urV

Results of Experiments.

1t Is yet too early to determine the
outcome of most Of these experimental
measures, though negative results ap-
pear to have followed the liberation Of
partridges in New Jersey, Mississippi
and Tennessee. During the year, how
ever, it has developed that the plant
ing Of 1000 pheasants in Kansas three
or four years ago has been entirely
barren of results and that of nearly
10000 partridges liberated in Connecti-
cut In 1903 and 1909 about 10 broods
remained in the fall of 1909, which
have since diminished and were prob
ably finally destroyed by the severe
weather of December, 1910. In the
case of the Connecticut partridges, the
fact that shooting was prohibited for
only one season largely accounts for
their disappearance.
In Indiana pheasants, which have
been introduced for twelve or thirteen
years, have yielded only fair results,
while through the last few years in
PRODUCTION Of Hungarian partridges
there are, according to a recent esti-
mate, 10000 of these birds on the 1GO
preserves created by contracts with
farmers. PheasantS have increased in
New Jersey as the result of three
years planting, and partridges in Ne
braska from 124 pairs put out by the
state in 1907 augmented by $1,000
worth liberated by ranchers early in
1909. Chinese pheasants, introduced in
Idaho In 1908 and 1909, have become
established wherever fed and other
wise cared for. Delaware shows only
negative results from 100 pairs of part
ridges distributed in 1909.
The importation of foreign birds and
mammals shows slight increase One
of the largest tHngle shipments ever
reported came into New York from
Hamburg in a vessel which brought
11,661 canaries and other nongame
birds in one lot consigned to a New
York importer. The chief importations
of mammals were japanese dancing
mice and monkeys of various species.
Two mongoose from Havana were de-
MED admission. The game protection
legislation In 1910, though small in
laws passed, included several impor-
tant acts. Only two retrograde meas
ures are noted-the opening of a sea-
son on robins, blackbirds and gulls in
Louisiana and the permitting of dove
shooting in July in Mississippi

ly, to farmers for Matching and later
liberation Of the resulting broods.
Iowa also arranged for the purchase
and distribution of adult pheasants.
South Dakota began an experiment
with 200 or 300 pairs of pheasants and
a few partridges, and Vermont gave
much consideration to restocking the
state with pheasants, wild turkeys and
Hungarian partridges, the last being
regarded less favorably. A few par
tridges were turned out by private or
ganizations in New York, and 100 par
tridges were planted in Mississippi and
