THE EVENING STORY.
RECONCILIATION.
Copyright, 1915, by W. werner)

AS Mrs. Sears sat on the porch that
afternoon she was thinking that it was
just year ago her son married and left
home She had not seen him since, in
spite Of the fact that he lived in the
next village, only a short distance away,
At the bottom of her heart she knew
miserably that the separation from her
son was her own fault, though she was
too stubborn to admit it When Dan had
had told of his engagement the news had
been very unpleasant In the first place,
she had not even known that he was
courting a girl-his fancee lived in the
next village, where he went to work
and she felt aggrieved he had not con-
fided in her more. In the second place,
as he was almost twenty-eight and had
hereto ore shown no marrying inclinat tions.
she had confidently expected that he
would remain a bachelor the rest Of his
days and continue to live with her. She
and Dan had been left at Mr.. Sears death
considerable money, which Dan, with his
sturdy independence, refused to touch,
him in business with it. There was a
tinge of mothers Jealousy in her dis
pleasure at the news. He was her only
child
Dan was chilled by her unresponsive-
ness, and hesitated to bring his f1ancee
to visit her This neglect angered his
mother still more. Had he used tact all
might have been well. however, but Dan
was too much like his mother to under
stand the meaning Of diplomacy. When
he told her he was going to buy house
in the next village because Daisy wanted
to stay near her folks, it seemed like the
last straw upon the camel's back.
But, mother said Dan, with frown
of surprise, of course, we expected you
would come to live with u.s.
Mrs. Sears snort of anger did small
justice to her feelings. She told Dan
then and there he could go and live in

OF minor Indians. AS result, already
more than s750.oO0 has been saved to In
dian children. Twelve thousand appear
ances have been made in these cases by
probate attorneys and more than $4,000
estates are now pending. These rules
will be rigidly enforced and will abso-
lutely protect the interest of every
estate. Their provisions are more ex-
acting and give greater protection to
the estates of minors than are made in
any other state in the Union. They
include number of requirements
which might well be in force elsewhere.
Each guardian is required to make an
annual or semi-annual report under
oath showing
PreScribes Duties completely the
of Each Guardian. and va,us % of
property held for the ward. All securi-
ties must be listed, and copies of all
deeds. mortgages, etc. evidencing the
recording of the same, must be at
tached to the reports as exhibits. Full
evidence of titles and other Investments
must be shown. The date and amount
of the guardians bond. the premium. IL
any, and the solvency of the sureties
must be shown. The name, age, sex Of
the ward and the relationship to the
guardian. if any, must be disclosed. A
failure to file such report constitutes
grounds for dismissal.
The hearing of reports is always to
be open to the public and notice OF II
must be given at least ten days in
advance Any person interested may
appear and make objections. IL SO de-
sired, to the approval of such report.
and offer testimony In support OF such
objections. No receipts from the ward
will be accepted in the final account
ing of the guardian unless the ward
be brought into open court and the
hearing of such a receipt be tran
scribed by stenographic notes and
copy therefrom filed with the papers
of the case. Any item in any previous
report may be reviewed.
1t Is the desire of the Indian bureau
to conserve to minor Indians the land
allotted them SO far as possible.
Therefore. the rules contain rigid re-
lands. Permission to sell will be
granted only upon absolute proof that
the best interests of the ward re-
Quire It.
A definite schedule of fees for the
sale of real estate is fixed by the
rules, and no excess will be allowed
by attorneys. These are 10 per cent
on the first $500 or less, per cent on
sums from $500 to $500 inclusive.
per cent on sums from $500 to $4,000.
and only / per cent on all sums above
$4,000. In no case shall the fee e1-

Dime Novel Feature
Developed in Case.

Cherokee Indian man and wife had
little daughter. The mother died and
the mans land was found to be oil pro-
ducing, yielding $1,000 per month. Att
er his wife died the man became ad-
dicted to the use of drugs and drink
and fell into the hands of an adventur-
ess, a white woman. She induced him
to go through a marriage ceremony
with her. and few weeks later the
man died. The autopsy revealed poison
in his stomach. After his death the
woman laid claim to the half of his es-
tate due her according TO the law OF
Oklahoma. The case was promptly
taken up by the Indian office. A YER
dict setting aside the marriage on tho
ground of fraud has been obtained. and
the little Indian maid has been secured
her full inheritance instead of being
mulcted of half of 1t by the woman
who tried to take it from her.

Loans Made Possible
Under Rules Adopted.

security not to exceed 80 per oent value
of the land, and require the keeping sf
funds in bank for each ward in N
account separate from the guardians
own personal account. and prohibit the
expenditure of any sum OF money un-
authorized by the court. except in the
case of sickness OF emergency. In which
event due notice must be Immediately
given to the court.
The vigilance with which the new
protective work is being enforced is
typified by a case recently tried in
Arizona. The guardian of three Creek
minor children turned in a report indi-
eating an improper expenditure Of
money and left the state of Oklahoma.
He was traced to Arizona. His case
was tried In tho Phoenix court and q
verdict against him secured. Through
his bondsmen $4,000 wa sthen secured
for the children. and a new guardian

Indians, and no one was directly In
terested. A bill presented to the
legislature for the establishment
of an Office of public defend
er" passed, but became ineffective be-
cause of the discontinuance of the ap-
preparation. For years Indian estates
have been ravished, if not wholly dis
sipated. by dishonest guardians and
irresponsible bondsmen who failed to
produce reports in the few instances
in which the courts were sufficiently
interested to call for them.
These conditions confronted Commis-
sioner Cato Sells at the beginning of
his administration. One of his first
official acts was to call a conference
of county judges. prosecuting attorneys
and others interested in the improve
ment of the territories by the Five
Civilized Tribes. At this conference a
set of rules of probate procedure were
formulated. They were promptly adopt
ed by the county judges. and approved
by the president of the State County
Judges Association. This approval did
not require their absolute enforcement.
however, so the rules were presented
to the justices of the Supreme Court by
Commissioner Sells and confirmed by
that court last June. This action by
the Supreme Court gives the rules the
same authority as a legislative law,
although it is believed that law will
be passed by the next legislature.
Since the adoption of these rules a
