THE CHiiROKEIi AGRIiGMBNT.
They Want New Commissioners Uut
The Department Is UlsRiistcii.
Special to tho Ardtnorolto.
WaahitiKtou Jnue2 KtiKiogsed
copies of the net of the Cherokee
council providing for the appoint-
ment of nine commissioners to rep-
resent tho Uhorokeo nation in the
preparation of n new agreement
with the federal government have
been received at tho Indian ofllce.
Beforo the act becomes effective it
will be necessary to secure its ap-
proval by President McKinley and
from present indications it is ex-
ceedingly doubtful whether this
can be accomplished.
The department as well as the
leading members of tho house nnd
senate Indian committees tins be-
come disgusted with the action of
the Cherokees in the past and there
is a disposition to reject nil further
propositions directed toward the
preparation of nny further agree-
ment. The reason for this iB not
because tho secretary and tho com-
missioner of Indian affairs are not
anxious to dispose of tho disputed
questions betweon the government
and Indians by some amicable
agreement but because it has be-
come apparent that the delegates
selected by the tribe ore invariably
insincere to say tho least their
ofjject apparently being to prevent
tho opening of the country through
procrastination and deceptive
methods.
Commissioner Jones will tnke up
the Cherokee act providing for the
appointment of new commissioners
and submit n report upon it for
tho guidance of Secretary Hitch-
cock. Tho commissioner will
probably refrain from making any
specific recommendation either for
or against tho approval of the act
merely contenting himself with n
review of the history of tho past
negotiations with tho Cherokees.
What course Secretary Hitch-
cock will pursue is problematical.
Personally he is opposed to any
further negotiations with tho In-
dians though he may consent to
the approval of tho act in order to
allow tho Dawes commission to
draft a new treaty with the Choro
kees which can otthor be rejected
by tho department when submitted
by the commission or if satisfac-
tory sent to I'ongress for ratifica-
tion. In tho meantime however
the Curtis law will be rigidly on-
forced and tho work of winding up
tho tribal government will proceed
as rapidly as possible.
Senator Piatt of Connecticut"
acting chairman of the committee
on Iudian affairs of the senate is
thoroughly disgusted with the
Cherokees and is in favor of the
enforcement of tho Curtis act and
the refusal on the part of the gov-
ernment to oven consider the ques-
tion of the preparation of rt new
agreement.
"For the past five years we have
been attempting to secure some
agreement with these Indian?
through their representatives for
the extinction of their tribal form
of government. Both the depart-
ment and congress have been most
lenieut with the Cherokees and
have afforded them every reason-
able opportunity to arrango some
satisfactory treaty. The result has
been that they havo construed
our leuieney as license to continue
pursuing thoir dilatory tactics and
thus defeat the aim of the federal
government. I for one am in fa
vor of giving them tho Curtis law
iu its entirety without any modi-
fication and refusing them any fur-
ther opportunity to nogotiato an
agreement. What tho department
may do 1 cannot say though I feel
sure that thoro ift n disinclination
on the part of Secretary Hitchcock
at least to waste any more timo
upon them.

sure to figure with me before lot-
ting the Job. Wo do tin rooting

chant figures out that If the cost of

are considered a bottle of this choice
Madeira has cost no less thnn $2000-
000 each Jlnssful $270000 and a single
drop could not he sold without loss un-
der $200.
It Is probable that this very old wine
Is worthless on tccountof "starvation."
Charles Hellows our ablest authority
on Madeira says that It becomes
"starved" after fettling uKn Its own
lees for 30 or '10 years. "It seems to
me that It Is very human and requires
eoinpniilonslilp" he says. "Demijohns
of tho same variety should be blended.
The marriage of the two wines would
probably give the Ices more character
and the wine would thus continue to
Improve. This certnlnly ought to 1

The peculiarities of Asthma are well
known nud one New York woman
thinks that she has more than usual
reason to complain of the vagaries of
the ill son so. She had nlways lived In
the lower part of tho city on one of the
nvenues distant from the two rivers
and had suffered In no unusual degree
from asthma when the weatlier was
not unfavorable. The doctor was not
consulted when her husband bought n
house In another part of the city nnd
It Is Indeed doubtful If he could have
foreseen the effect upon her of Ilvlug
In the new neighborhood.
It took tho sufferer only a few hours
to realize that It would bo impossible
for her to live In the new house which
was only n short distance from the
North river. Her discomfort became
so great that she was compelled at the
end of a week to give up nil attempt to
reside there and the house that had
been built with so much care nnd ex-
pense had to be abandoned.
Another example of tho vagaries of
asthma Is to be found In the case of a
New Yorker who Is comfortable enough
In tills city so long as he lives on the
upper stories of a lofty hotel or other
residence building but is in great dis-
tress so soon as lie Is compelled to be
on terra flrrnn. New York Sun.

The correspondence was brief but to
the point. The letter she received was
ns follows:
Deer Madam I take ptaaaim In ahlpptng to
four addreaa a me rained at ISO lor wbkh I
ball be glad to itttiw your check. U you do not
dcairc tbe rag pleae return IU
"The Idea!" she exclaimed. "I never
knew such Impertinence."
Then she sat down and wrote the
following:
Dear Sir I hare ordered no rug from jrrnir ca-
tabllahment. and I m no reaeon why I aliould go
to the eapenae ot returning that which I do not
want and which waa aant to me unaollclted.
To this she received the following
answer In due time:
Dear Madam I will tend lor tbe unaollctted
rag and t I nut you will do me the la vor to
tend lor tbe untolleitetl charity entertainment
ticket i which now lie with about is others on

"The discourteous boorl" she ex-
claimed. "Evidently" ho soliloquized "there
are methods of procedure that cannot
be successfully applied to business."
