1 ASKS I
To Stop Opening of the Kiowa-
Comanche Lands.
DEPARTMENT WILL DEFEND.
Washington. May 25.—William H.
Springer, formerly l nited States judge
of the northern district of Indian Ter-
ritory has been retained by the Kiowa
and Apache delegations in Washington
to conduct their case against the sec-
retary of the interior lo prevent the
opening of the Kiowa reservation to
settlement.
ITeliiuiuarv steps now being taken
foreshadow a protracted contest which
will almost certainly prevent the open-
ing of the Indian country this sum-
mer. Judge Springer intends to appeal
first to the secretary of the interior in
liehalf of the Indians and in the event
of failure to secure posl ponement, and
will then carry the case to the supreme
court of the District of Columbia and
apply for an injunction restraining the
secretary from carrying out the provis-
ions of the congressional enactments,
providing for the opening of the Kiowa
country.
The brief tiled at the Indian office
protesting against the enforcement of
congressional acts was drawn by Judge
Springer and presented by Lone Wolf,
chief of the Kiowas. Acting Commis-
sioner of Indian att'airs Toner, refused,
however to receive a remonstrance
as an official communication because
the Indians here arc not delegates
from their tribes and are here without
getting leave to come from the depart-
ment or from their agent .fudge
Springer says he will apply to the
courts for a permanent injunction
against the opening of the Kiowa
country until after the constitutional-
ity of the act of .1 une 0, 1900, can he
passed upon by the courts. Acting
Secretary Ryan was asked what course
the- department would pursue in the
matter.
“There is but one course upon to
us,” he replied. “We must obey the
law. It is too late now for the depart-
ment to stop to consider protests from
Kiowa. Comanche tribes. The time
for protest has passed. It is the duty
of the executive officers to enforce the
laws and the congressional act pro-
viding for the opening of the Kiowa
country is clear and specific. The de-
partment will proceed with the work
as rapidly as possible.”
“Suppose the courts issue an injunc-
tion?” I asked.
“Then we will obey the mandate of
the court, but we are not contem-
plating such action.”
Kansas Colony to Oklahoma.
Sterling, Kans., May 27.—Man}' peo-
ple in this vicinity are moving to
Oklahoma this season. They have
become impatient waiting for the
opening of the new lauds and are all
locating in Woodward county. That
county has been devoted almost ex-
clusively to cattle raising iu the past
but the Sterling emigrants will try
and make farming pay there. Among
those in this locality who have taken
claims this season in Woodward coun-
ty are eleven Misters and two Misses.
Kftlxer Mates Reporter*.
Berlin, May 27. — Kmperor William
has issued stringent orders henceforth
to exclude newspaper reporters from
all public and semi-public functions
where the emperor intends to speak.
He is further reported to have said
that the utterances he makes when
within the circle of his officers are not
intended for the public, especially as
he does not then mince matters, but
talks confidentially.
Mim McKinley Convclescent.
San Francisco, May 23.—The con-
valescence of Mrs. McKinley is very
rapid and she is fast regaining her
normal strength. .She is able to sit up
and read the papers. So marked is her
improvement that it is very probable
the presidential party will start for
Washington next Saturday.
If no untoward development should
occur it is thought that Mrs. McKinley
will be able to endure the journey by
that time.
Did -Not I’gy Oleo Tax.
Leavenworth, May 25.—The mana-
ger and the superintendent of the
Harrison Butterine company are
charged with using Oleomargarine
stamps twice and Collector Mike Sut-
ton has sworn out warrants for their
arrest. A revenue agent who exam-
ined their hooks alleges that the de-
fendants defrauded the government
two cents a pound on 93,000 pounds.
The penalty for violating the oleomar-
garine law includes confiscation of the
plant and both a fine and imprison-
ment for the offenders.
[J | t i l l It \ KV NOTCS.
IIk\ry V of Knui.anh was a very
different character from the popular •
idea of him. if the statements of facts J
about his life which history has only (
hinted at, are to he conceded to be de-
lineated in the story “Kvery Inch u |
King.” The story has to do with
Henry V when he was l*rince of NN ales,
and in it the reader moves in the so-
ciety of the Knglisli court iu mediaeval
days of which it gives an accurate pic-
ture: as the romance is founded entirely
upon fact, not of the Prince's escapades,
duels and hairbreadth escapes, except
in so far as they arc appropriate in a
study of character. The little under-
stood events of those days ure woven
into a dramatic story, while love runs
through all. and finally is victorious.

To Attack ItnilroaiU In June.
Washington, May 27. — President
James O'Connell, of the International
Association of Machinists, announced
that he would recommend to the
annual convention of machinists at
Toronto, beginning June 3, that, a date
be set for a nine-hour day without
reduction in wages on all the railroads
in the country. On railroads which
fail lo comply with this demand a
strike will be ordered. This recom-
mendation will bo made in Mr. O’Con-
iwH's annual speech.
A Romance op Conmcmknck, describes
the motif of Tut: Pottkk axd thk
Ci.ay; the latest from the pen of Maud
Howard Peterson. It is the story of a
young American girl from a frontier
fort ami her choice as between two
officers of the British army. Dne of
them, Trevel} an, is the clay of the title
role and gets thumped and moulded as
the potter—destiny, providence, will,
call it as we may—tries ami tests the
clay. The problem of the story is as to
whether the resulting character was
that of a hero or a coward; the other,
Stewart, grows before the reader as a
well poised man. and Cary, the heroine,
a true hearted woman. The book is
full of rich descriptions of many lands
which form a picturesque setting for a
strong and entrancing story. The il-
lustrations by Charlotte Harding enter
into the soul of the situations. Pub-
lished by the Lothrop Publishing Co..

WHAT THE CHINESE EAT.
Mire, Snakes, Carrion-Kktin z Bird* and
Inedible Shellfish.
Visiting a Chinese market is a
strange experience; it is like a fairy
tale happening. Scheherezade could
have made another week of tales in
the "Arabian Nights" out of the im-
petus given to the imagination by au
hour’s study of the fish, flesh and fowl
and bone of the Chinese market, says
Harper’s Riizar. Where could such
things grow that are so unlike any-
thing ever eaten by a Christian? And
the nameless things floating in liquid
held in bowls, what can they be?
Even the fresh green vegetables and
salads are unlike any vegetation pro-
duced by a morally conducted kitch-
en garden. Mice, snakes, carrion-
eating birds, inedible shell-fish, these
are the words that keep us from wish-
ing to try Chinese dishes, and our
great horror is that we shall even
smell them. Now what do the eaters
of these foods think of the diet, which
is the proper diet because we so de-
clare it? What suggestive words
flash in their celestial brains when
certain European dainties are set be-
fore them? Did not Minister Wu and
the sixteen brocaded gentlemen of his
suite give at a dinner party a reproof
which should make all Christendom
blush? When the Roquefort cheese
was passed he withdrew his insulted
nose as far as possible from the of-
fending dish with celestial hauteur,
and plied his fan with evident pur-
pose. The sixteen all did the same,
and the table was surrounded *dth
China's disapproval of civilization’s
offering. The moral is that if our
faults of palate are great enough to
disgust another nation, should not
our sense of humor keep us from
jeering at their peculiarities.

Every year some of the sparse number
left are sold for trading or other pur-
poses, and but few are built to take
their places. Many of them find their
last home trading in the Pacific is-
lands, and a very few well-known
vessel, the Verena, has recently chang-
ed hands to become a German pilot-
boat. Built for Sir Edward Sullivan
and known as the Shamrock, she did
a fair amount of racing in her time. A
few years since she belonged to 1 .ord

man emperor on board; later she be-
longed to Mr. Hooley, and since has
had several other owners.—London

The authorities of the city of Poi-
tiers. France, which seems to be a
very modern place, have been tho
first to introduce this new element
into the curriculum. A professor of
antomobilism lias been appointed by
tlie municipality, who will give week-
ly public lectures on the subject in
the town hall. His tuition will be
historical, theoretical and practical.
The lecture- will, in particular, be de-
voted to technical explanation of dif-
ferent types of motor engines in use.
They will also deal especially with
the driving of cars and the teacher
will give hints for traveling on the
road.

Rev. Mr. Pearson, the preacher who
was elected sheriff of Cumberland
county (Portland), Mains, after having
been nominated as a joke by the liquor
men, has been a source of unending
trouble to them ever since. His rigid
enforcement of the prohibition law
has, it is said, resulted in an offer of a
large sum if he will resign or go to
Europe and remain there until his
term shall have expired.

New Zealand made reductions on its
railway passenger rates to the extent
of About 35 per cent recently. It was

that way. however. Railway traveling
has Increased so much that the deficit
has been wiped off. and a handsome
increase of revenue nearly £20,000—

Piles Cured While You Sleep
■You are costive, and nature Is under a constant strain to relieve the condition. This causes a rush of blood to the rectum, and before
long congested lumps appear. Itching, painful, bleeding. Then you have piles. There are many kinds and many cures, but piles are not cura-
ble unless you assist nature in removing the cause. CASCARETS make effort easy, regulate and soften the stools, relieving the tension, and
giving nature a chance to use her healing power. Piles, hemorrhoids, fistula, and other rectal troubles yield to the treatment, and Cascarets
quickly and surely remove them forever. Don’t be persuaded to experiment with anything else!
