WANTS TO RE LET ALONE.
Indian Makes a Plea to the (lilted
States.
Washington, D. C„ March 31.
Chief Yukeoma, a thin, dried-up look-
ing little Hopi Arizona, clad in the
trappings of his tribe, appeared at
the White House today and made a
plea to President Taft on behalf of
several hundred of his tribesmen to
be left alone. The aged little In-
dian's speech was interpreted to the
president, as follows:
'Oh, Great White Father, my peo-
ple want to live as in the days of
old, before the paleface took from
us the land that was ours. We want
to bo let alone to live as we wish,
to roam free without the white man
always to tell us what we can do
and what wo cannot do."
Yukeoma's beady little black eyes
were sadder than ever when ho left
tho White House, for tho president
told him that the school could not
be abolished and that the school
teachers must continue their work
on the Indian reservation. It is said
the majority of the Hopis are in
nfavor of education and the compul-
sory attendance of the children.

Josephine's retirement comes at
the early age of 9 years, but she
has seen nioro people and been seen
by more people than any other cow
in history. She has been paraded
across the state in special cars a
number of times, and thousands have
visited her at every fair and stock
show.
Josephine's failure to break the
world's record for milk production
for the full year, after breaking all
the records up to 11 months,
been keenly regretted by all per-
sons In this community, where her
name is a household word.
Various persons, when her output
began to diminish, advocated feed-
ing her salt, pumping her full of
water, oxygen, and using other ar-
tificial stimulants. None was adopted,
and the cow failed.
Josephine is modest and reticent,
and made no statement for publi-
cation. Her managers and press
agents state that the trip across the
• state, just finished, was positively
her farewell appearance.

Do You Get Your
Money's Worth?
BY THE SHAWNEE NEWS
Buying is becoming more of a science every day.
Anyone can rush out and buy goods from the first dealer he finds, but
to buy Just the right kinds of goods a the right prices requires discrim-
ination and care.
Some people are very particular about unimportant matters, but fall to
get the most for their money when it comes to the matter of buying their
supplies.
The announcements of dealers ar a great help in this direction.
The advertisements of the dealer make it comparatively easy to se-
cure a groat deal of information bef re visiting the stores.
Then you can shop more intelligently.
If any dealer makes a misstatement in his advertisement you may de-
pend upou it that he cannot keep it up for any great lenth of time, be-
cause sooner or later his sins will flud him out.
He will lose trade.
The dealer who regularly makes Is announcements through the col-
umns of the newspapers, tells the public exactly what he has to sell and
explains in honest terms the value o his merchandise, Is worthy of your
confidence and can be relied upon im Ucitly He cannot afford to
represent
The truth alone can stand regular advertising, because advertising
the searchlight which reveals true character.
It pays to read the advertisements.

San Antonio, Tex., March 31.—For
some time many cities of Texas have
been flooded with counterfeit dimes.
When these were tested they were
found to contain more silver than
the genuine coins from tho govern-
ment mints, but the wormanship is
very poor. The coins were made
from Mexican dollars and these con-
tain more silver than the American
dollar. It is said, too, that the
counterfeiters succeeded in getting
18 American dimes out of one Mexi-
can dollar, or, in other words, they
could make $1.80 of circulating me-
dium with 50 cents worth of silver.
It is estimated they put fully $10,000
of this spurious coinage into circu-
lation in the past four months. Sec-
ret service men have been trying to
locate the persons who manufacture
those coins and have been led a
merry chase for several months.
Yesterday, however, they were more
successful and arrested two Mexi-
cans, Celso and Bernado Pelez,
brothers, who reside in El Paso. The
fact that the two men were living
high and spending a good deal of
money caused suspicion to be di-
rected toward them.
The ex-Sultan of Turkey, Abdul
Hamid, who attempted suicide, fol-
lowing the frustration of an attempt
to escape from the Villa Allantini
in Salonika, where he is kept a pris
oner. After the discovery of his
plan to escape, the deposed monarch
retired to a room in the ancient cas-
tlo, barred the door and severed a
vein in his arm with a broken tum-
bler. One of his five wives, however,
becoming alarmed at his continued
silence, ordered the door broken
down and found him In time to save
his life.
