Principal Chief Issues Call for Con.
vening at Okmulgee, March 27
MUSKOGEE: Because of the ac-
tion of congress continuing tribal ex-
istence of tho live civilized tribes of
Indians, Pleasant Pa iter, principal
chief of the Creeks, has notified the
president of the house of kings and
the speaker of the house of warriors,
to call meetings of their respective
houses to meet at Okmulgee, March
27.
In tho call for an extraordinary ses-
sion of tho council, the chief citcs
the following resolution, passed by
congrefs and signed by the president,
as his authority:
"That the tribal existence ami
present tribal governments of the
Choctaw, Chickasaw, Creek, and
Seminole tribes or nations of Indians
in the Indian Territory are hereby
continued in full force and effect for
all purposes under existing laws until
nil property of such tribes, or tho pro-
ceeds thereof, shall bo distributed
among the individual members of said
tribes, unloss hereafter otherwise pro-
vided by law."
At tho last meeting of the council
1n October, 1903, appropriations were
made to cai-ry the tribal government
up to March 4, 190G, at which time,
by treaty agreement, tribal govern-
ment was to cease, unless otherwise
provided by congress. By the recent
act of congress it now becomes neces-
sary for additional appropriations to
carry on the needs of the tribal gov-
ernment, to provide for the contin-
uance of schools, and arranging for
the disposition of the Creek funds.
All legislation In the future will be
made with the final dissolution of
tribal affairs constantly in view. It
is expected that the governor and-
chiefs of the other tribes will soon
call together their respective legisla
tive bodies.

CLIPPING IN THE EARLY SPRING
RECOMMENDED BY LEADING
VETERINARIANS.
All Thinking Men Readily Recognize
Its Advantages.
"A horse Is a valuable asset, and
should receive the best care possible.
He should be well fed, comfortably
stabled, carefully groomed and clipped
In the early spring. If ho receives
these attentions he will work well
and improve in value. A horse lives
under artificial conditions. In his
wild state he required none of these
attentions, for he was able to look
out for himself. The domesticated
animal, being worked under condi-
tions that are In themselves artificial,
must be kept in condition for such
work.
The clipping of a horse in tlje early
spring is now conceded by all the
leading veterinarians to be as essen-

INDICTMENTS AGAINST OFFICERS
Life Insurance Men Are Still Being
Brought to Time
NEW YORK: Indictments charg-
ing grand larceny in the first degree
by Frederick A. Burnham, president
and George D. Eldredge, first vice
president, and George D. Burnham,
Tr., second vice president of the Mu-
tual Reserve Life Insurance company,
were found by the grand jury. In all
five indictments were brought against
each of them, two for grand larceny
and three for forgery. The alleged
larceny and forgery was brought about
according to the Indictments, by pay-
ment of $9,000 of the company's money
to lfiw firms, the apparent purpose
of which is alleged to have been to
6ettle claJins against the company,
while the real object is alleged to have
been to settle actions which had beep
brought against officers of the com-
pany as individuals.
The indictments on which a charge
cf larceny is based alleged that the
officers embezzled two sums, one of
$'.',500 and the other of $1,500 on Oc
tober 24, 1901.
freshed for the work the following
day. An undipped horse is liable to
catch the heaves, pneumonia and all
sorts of colds, rheumatism, etc. More
especially is this so In the early
spring, when his hair is long and he
Is "soft" If worked hard he will per-
spire freely and the moisture will be
held by his long hair, and the food
that should go to nourish him will be
used to replenish the heat that is be-
ing constantly taken from his body
by the mass of cold wet hair. If
clipped, the perspiration will evapor-
ate almost as soon as secreted, and
when put in the stable he rests com-
fortably and his food does him good.
Some years ago a Buffalo street car
company tested the value of clipping
In the following manner: They own-
ed 500 horses, and 250 of these were
clipped early In the spring and 250
were not clipped. A careful record
was kept of results, and it was found
that of the 250 undipped horses 153
were afflicted with coughs and pneu-
monia, while of the 250 clipped not
one case of sickness was reported.
A man would not expect to enjoy
very good health if he did hard man-
ual work clothed with heavy under-
wear, a heavy suit and a fur overcoat,
and after perspiring freely, as he
naturally would, go to sleep without
removing same. It Is Just as ridicu-
lous to expect a horse to be in perfect
! health if worked under the same con-
ditions.
If you would get the best returns
from your investment in your horse,
| treat him right, and be sure and
i clip him in the early spring A first-
| class horse-clipping machine can be
bought at almost any hardware store
for less than $7.00.—Horse Review,
! Dec. 5th, 1905.

Mrs. Athlle Harding,
"Two or three times a year I nm
troubled with my throat, a kind of raw
feeling, turning to bronchitis. I have
had the services of my physician in
each case. Two years ago, when I
felt a spell coming, 1 tried Peruna to
check it, and to my delight was not
troubled with the smothered and chok-
ing feeling and never have been sinco.
I can check it every time with Pe-

"I was a sufferer with catarrh of
the throat and lungs for a long time
before Peruna was recommended to
me. I gave It a trial, although 1
thought at tho time it would be just
like other medicines and do mo no
good. I was pleased to find that my
improvement began in less than two
weeks and continued until 1 was en-
tirely well. I gained nearly 15 pounds,
have a splendid appetite and am grate-
ful for what your medicine has dona
for me."

COLLECTS FROM SANTA FE
Tulsa's City Treasury is $893 Richer
from Taxes Received
TULSA: The Santa Fe railroad
without any attempt at protest, has
paid $893 taxes on Tulsa property into
the city treasury. The levy was made
and the railroad came through at once.
This is the first tax, so it is said, the
Santa Fe has paid any city in the ter-
ritory.
Last year Tulsa made the Katy pay
but not without an effort and after-
wards an attorney for that road in an
address before a meeting of mayors
of Indian Territoyy (jities at South
McAlester said the road would refuse
payment another year If the territory
wa*s under the same government.
The fairies may bring to the chris-
tening wealth and honor, beauty and
riches, but the best gift of all, exper-
ience, is withheld because it is the
only thing in life that really counts
in the long run.—New Orleans Pica-
