Captain Steunenberg. Of the regular
army. is in trouble over Il poem which
he wrote satirizing the German army
methods which are understood to have
been employed by the Turks in the
training Of troops. and which have
not been very successful. One would
suppose that the experience of Admir-
al Coghlan after his recitation OF the
poem. '1Ioch der Kaiser" following
Dewey's victory at Manila. would have
lasted army and navy officers Il
long time. Germany took notice Of
the incident. and asked for an en-
PLANTATION. Coghlan was reprimanded.
and an apology was rendered. The
Steunenberg incident is Of the same
class. and 1t is understood that the
captain is to be brought onto the EAR
pet before Germany has a chance to
make any remonstrance. One impor-
tant qualification Of a man who
wears the uniform of the United States
is ability to hold his tongue in all
the known languages. Expressions
which would be of no account from
a civilian become matters Of state
when given utterance by an officer in
uniform.

when Mr.. Wilson becomes president
to expect Mr.. Hanna to reappoint Of
ficials who were appointed in the first
place as democrats. and because they
were democrats?
There have been various suggestions
here and there as to what appoint
ments might or should he made. The
Times has no suggestions of the kind
to offer. It understands that Mr..
Hanna has been elected governor of
the state. and that he will be held
accountable for the character Of his
administration. The success Of an
administration depends quite largely
on the type of men who are chosen to
perform the various administrative
duties under the general direction Of
the governor. MIR. Hanna ought to be
conceded the right to make his own
selections of these men. subject, Of
caurse. to the reasonable review Of
the senate. on which body is imposed
the duty of confirming or rejecting
the appointments made. It is assum-
ed. as a matter of course. that it will
be the policy of the new governor. as
it has been Of the present one. as it
will be the policy Of the incoming
president. and as 1T is the policy of
practically all executive officers ev-
erywhere. 20 make his selections from
among the members Of his own party,
SO long as men can be found in that
party capable of performing the duties
properly. That is fair and reasonable.
and we believe that MIR. Hanna'S
friends. ut least. will hot seek to en-
barrass him by trying to make his APP
pointments for him In advance.

HEAP BIG WEDDING
FOR 1000 sQuANs
All Indian Tribes Invited to
the Wholesale Marriage
Feast of Winnebagoes.

Winnebago, Neb., Dec. 13.-The en-
tire tribe of Winnebago Indians has
decided to get married. In formal
tribal council, in which every man OH
the reservation participated, the In
dams have voted to forsakc the ways
of their fathers and to marry In the
white mans way. Now the Indians
are preparing for the greatest mar
riage" ever known.
AS oon as the arrangements can be
made about thousand couples OF
Indians will stand up at the altar at
the same time and in the same cere-
mony.
The Indians already are making
great preparations for the event, bu;
these probably will not be completed
until next spring. No Indian tribe
would miss an opportunity Of this kind
to receive presents. In fact. when the
big wedding is over the Winnebagoes
expect to be the richest tribe in the
west.
According to Indian custom the CIV
ing Of presents Is a virtue-one Of the
greatest virtues. Tribes often mako
themselves poor by giving. Individual
Indians frequently will give away ev.
crything they possess. And in the
present case the Winnebagoes will be
the recipients Of heap presents

Already the Winnebagoes have sem
official Invitations to other tribes. The

Sioux in the Dakotas have been asked
to come to the big affair. And SO ave
the Crows in Montana. The Arapa-
hoes and Arikaries of Wyoming will
nebagoes in Minnesota will be spe"ial-
!y urged to come down in force. Poll-
cas-. Osages. Creeks and other tribes
from Oklahoma have been invited.
And the Omahas. the near neighbors
OF the Winnebagoes. have promised
to come en- masse.
The Winnebagoes, although living
among whites. have maintained their
tribal customs regarding marriage.
Polygamy Is common and desertion
constitutes divorce. There is scarce
~ a mar on the reservation who has
not had from twelve to twenty wives.
No Winnebago has known when he
left. his cabin in the morning If he
would have a wife on his return. and
no Winnebago woman has known
when her husband would throw her
out of his house and refuse to permit
her to return. There are no marriage
vows and only a small fraction of the
cording to the white mans way.
Why They Will Marry.
Some time g the government be-
gan allotting a farm to each Winne-
hago. Then arose the question Of
land for the children. And. further,
10 WnOm Q10 the children belong? 1t
was an almost superhuman task to
which the government agents set
themselves. But the work finally was
completed and each Indian received
a farm.
However. there remained a tre-
mendously large mount Of what is
termed "heirship" land and there was
a question as to just whom this land
belonged. The wiser Indians saw the
trouble and were intelligent enough
to see that some way must be provid-
ed by which the title to future heir
ship land could be kept straight. They
discussed the matter with the mission
aries. the Indian agent, and with law
yers in Omaha. 1t was settled that the
only remedy lay in marriage accord
ing to the state law.
After talking for months they call
ed a grand council of the tribe and
announced the forthcoming big we'd
ding at which all the Indians would
be married.

TIPS FOR SOME OF US.

If a man takes you to expensive
dinners and talks dollars and dia-
nlonds to YOU he is not serious. If
to one cheap lunch he adds a discus
sion on economy, then get your third
finger ready.
If married life seems fiat and all
interest in things has evaporated, add
a few congenial friends, some health
full pastimes and. If necessary, change
the furniture. Stir the whole into a
fresh atmosphere of determination and
see what happens.
If you are looking old, unattrac-
tive and generally at your worst, get
n shampoo. a facial massage. bushels
Of fresh air II smile at something
funny. You will have a better chance
TO face the world and it's music.
Selfishness crushes out love; most
Of the people who are living together
and are continually complaining that
they cant get on" care too much
for themselves and too little for eacn
other.

Kingston was by Spendthrift out Of
Kapanga. AT the age of Is he head
ed the list Of American sires. with
thirty-three winners of 10 races and
S116.36s to his credit. Again. in 1910.
he had the same distinction. Novelty,
who is winning fresh laurels in France
is probably the best of his get.
Kingston raced for nine Years, start
ing 13S times. He Won SO races and
was placed every time but four.
Though bred by James X. keene and
own by him of late years. Kingston
achieved his greatest turf successes
while owned by the Dwyer brothers of
New York. for whom he earned con-
siderable over $780, 600 in stakes and
purses.
Among the essentials in a truly
great race horse are speed, courage,
wind and the ability to carry weight.
Kingston had all these. In addition
he was as individual as any human be-
ing. He knew the racing game and
would not be beaten if he could help

Three hundred years ago twenty
negroes were brought to Virginia as
slaves. and this marked the beginning
Of the black slave trade. so far as the
United States was concerned. When
the slaves were freed by President
Lincoln there were 100000 of them
and this number has since risen to
some TO- 900 900. Influential negroes
are planning for next year a celebra-
ton Of the fifty years Of freedom
which the race has experienced since
the signing Of Lincoln's emancipation
proclamation. The disgraceful es.
capades Of a few unworthy members
Of their race should not blind us to
the very great and very real progress
that has been made by the negroes
during the half century.

Without in any way letting up on
their fight against tuberculosis, ply
sicians point out that typhoid fever
also Stays its thousands. 1t is often
said that the existence of typhoid is
a disgrace to any community. Certain
1t Is that the conditions which cause
the disease are comfortable. The per-
son who does not a or drink any
thing that is contaminated with ty-
phoid germs cannot contract the dis
case. Often it is contracted through
no fault of the individual himself. but
it is never contracted without the
doing by somebody Of something that
ought not to be done, or the neglect
Of that which should be done.
