Tishomingo, I.T., April 14.
I will trespass ou your valuable
space attain if you are so kind as to give
ine that liberty. I will endeavor to give
you a few items about the country,
manners, etc., of the “poor Indian.”
Tishomingo is the capital of the Chicka
saw nation, aud is beautifully situated
upon the banks of Pennington crook,
whose waters are as clear and limpid
as dew on an autumn morning. The
town can boast of a line capitol build
ing resembling the court house in Co
lumbus in style and architecture. There
are several stores, and withal it is a
thriving little town. Several men
have made fortunes by being licensed
traders.
TU K 8U1* It KM K COURT
is iu session now, and there are some
line lawyers iu attendance. The
supreme court has greater powers than
those of the states, especially in one
point, that is, besides reversing or af
firming the decision of the circuit
court, it cau acquit criminals on tech
nicalities or through sympathy. The
right of pardou is not vested in the gov
ernor aud the oriminal's only chance
is with tho judges of the supremo court,
and it is seldom he can get it there, for
they are great sticklers to law and cus
tom.
THE FULL-BLOODS
dresa gaudily aud delight in bright
colors and beads aud feathers. iThe full-
blood school hoys feel gloriously hap
py when they have their hats decked
with red bird feathers and belts round
their waists. I believe every boy in
school wears a belt instead of suspend
ers, and then again they are used as
weapons in stropping one another. All
delight iu bows and arrows, aud some
of them are splendid shots, bringing
down a squirrel or bird nearly every
time. Their bows are made of bodoc
osage orange, and their arro ws of dog
wood. They use the sinews of the
(leer as strings to tie feathers to the ar
row aud as bow strings. Some of thorn
are oxpert harpoonors, as the strings
of fish they bring in on Saturdays will
testify,
THE PRAIRIES
are covered with a carpet of grass and
flowers now, and present a beautiful
appearance. The wild verbena grows
luxuriously here and adds much to the
beautiy of the scene. Iu the fall, when
jack frost has killed all vegetation with
his icy touch, the bright-red leaves of
the sumach contrast vividly with the
pale-yellow of the grass, and make b
glowing picture of beauty. When the
grass begins to grow aud the sap to rise
in the trees, the Indian boy’s spirit
rises and bis all-absorbing wish is to
mount his pony aud iiy over tho prai
ries iu pursuit of uubranded cattle,
THE HALF-BREED
seems to be endowed with as good a
mind as the white boy, though they
have not the same application. There
are some boys here who would
do credit to any institution of
learning. We have music in our school
and tho boys seem to take great Inter
est iu it. They have a Hue ear for the
entrancing art and show rapid progress.
Mr. Connor, tho profosor of music has
organized a band and they play some
very beautiful pieces. There are two
or three pupils who perform excellent
ly on the piano, the most diiUoult pieces
being mastered by them. The Indians,
as you are aware, are
VERY SUPERSTITIOUS
and treat diseases of various kinds,
which they call after animals, such bh
horse-sick, cat-sick and dog-sick, by
moans of dances aud scenes of merri
ment, which they cull launch pecholahs
Wheu a person is sick, the old doctor if
called in and the patient given teaH
made from different kinds of herbs,
roots, <teo. This continues for two or
three days, when invitations are sent
out to the neighbors who attend from
tho distance of thirty miles. When the
guests arrive, tho patient is putin tho
middle of the room and those present
form a circle and dance to a slow mo
notonous song. This continues nearly
all night aud sometimes for three
four days. The guests are regaled with
a dish composed of what wo call “big
homtny” ami meat beat up line, Tho
whole is seasoned to suit the taste, and
I am told that it has a tine flavor,
and is thought to be one of the finest of
dishes. Sometimes the kernels of
hickory uuu are added to the mixture.
Gov. Harris told me a few nights since
that before the (Jhickasaws moved west
parties on the warpath would come out
here iu the Osage country and take
scalps, and when they had returned
home they would have a big dance, and
eat pechopah when it wan almost boil
ing. If they could not stand it when it
was hot, they were not considered
brave. There is another great dish
among the Indians which is called ta-
fullah, or as the white man says, Tom
Fuller. This is corn boiled with wa
ter, aud allowed to stand until it sours
or ferments. It is a national dish
among the Indians, being called sofka
by the Creeks and okonihano by the
Cherokees, When an Indian In sick,
the first thing he calls for is tafullaii
It seems to possess strengthening qual
ities in a marked degree, and is a great
nervine. The Indian eats very little
meat, t&fullah seeming to answer for a
solid, and coffee for a drink, when they
can’t get whisky,
THE HALE OF WHISKY
is prohibited in the territory and the
laws regarding it are very strict and
severe. Notwithstanding the penalties
there is a great deal of it sold, and
nearly every family have it in tbeir
houses. It is sold mostly in the form
of pure alcohol and mixed with water
when drank.
They say, when any one living in
this western country has delirium from
drink, instead of seeing monkeys as
they do back in Georgia, they see cen
tipedes aud tarantulas aud scorpions or
stinging lizards. Centipedes and othor
POISONOUS REPTILES
are found iu great numbers over at
Hock Academy, no less than one hun
dred being killed there in one day last
summer. Iu some instances the sting
is fatal, and at all times severe, The
bite of tho tarantula is nol so bad, but
is much dreaded. The Texas Si/tings
says the host way to pet a tarantula is
to pat him on the back with the flat
part of an ax. The scorpion or stlug-
ing lizard can be found most anywhere,
sometimes getting in the beds or
amongst your clothes. It is a tree scor
pion and belongs to the order bruchus.
It’s sting does not produce death, but
it is very painful, making a bump on
the flesh as large as a lien’s egg. If an
Indian is your enemy and he wishes
TO KILL YOU,
he does not care how ho accomplishes
The most approved way is to sur
round your liouso at night and kill you
while you are Hitting before your fire,
shooting you down with a Winchester
One of the articles of toilet which
nearly every old Indian carries is a
pair of tweezers, which is used in pull
ing out the scanty hairs that come on
his chin. All the Comanclies wear long
hair trailing down their backs, with a
white cow’s tail plaited in towards the
end, and on tho cow’s tail you will al
ways see a pair ol tweezers. When he
is wrapped in his army blanket, lie is
as vain of his appearance as a ]iroad
way swell.
There are more Indians marrying
white men than there are Indians mar
rying Indians. Each
HEAD OF A FAMILY
has tlie right of (140 acres of land. The
rails for fencing are cut from the public
lands. Yon can select your land any
where in tho nation provided it iN not
some ono elso’n claim, and that you do
not run your line within a quarter of a
mile of another person’s land. This
law was made for tho purpose of hav
ing plenty of grazing pastures alter the
country has become thickly settled.
In a few years more the Chickasaws
will become so intermarried witli the
whites that it will be difficult to detect
the Indian blood. The Creek Indians
have intermarried with the negro so
long that a great many of them have
lost the Indian features. There are
very fine looking men and women
among the Cherokees.
THE MENTAL CAL1URE
of the Cherokee Indian is larger than
any other, but half-breeds do not seem
to possess any more intelligence than
the Chickasaw half-breed—on the
whole they can be compared favorably
to the white man in intelligence. The
Shawnees and Pottawattomies are the
only tribes that make much bead work,
the othor tribes having given it up al
most entirely. Thero has been a
GOOD DEAL OF KILLING
going on recently, no less than five
men being killed last week. A regular
pitched battle, fought in Indian style,
took place about eight miles from here
last week. It was fought between a
band of cattle thieves and a posse of
men who were on their trail. Throe
men wore killed and at last accounts
the posse were still after them. This Is
a rough country on cattlo thieves.

Washington, April 20.—On motion
of Blackburn, of Kentucky, the senate
bill passed, appropriating one hundred
thousand dollars for tho erection of a
public building at Frankfort* Ken
tucky.
Calkins, of Indiana, chairman of tho
comtniltoe ou elections, called up tho
lontested election case of Lynch vs.
Chalmers, from the Gtli district of Mis
sissippi.
Mr. Carlisle, of Kentucky, called at
tention to the fact that Atiier-
oQ, of Ohio, who represent-
tlie minority in tho elec
tion committeo, was absent on Account
cknosH, and lie hardly thought it
fair to call up tho case in tho absence
of that gentleman.
kins replied that he hud this
morning received a telegram from
Atherton stating that he would en
deavor to bo back on Monday. In tlie
meantime lie (Mr. Calkins) thought tlie
discussion tnlgbt run on fortwodavs,
and that no voto should lie taken until
At horton’s return.
Finally the house deferred action on
tlie Lynch Chalmers contented election
of Mississippi, until Atherton, of
Ohio, who represents the minority, re
turns.
Tiie house went into a committee of
tlie whole on l he tariff coni mission bill.
Among the speakers were Turner, ol
Kentucky, in opposition to tlie meas
ure, Dingley favoring it, Townsend, of
Illinois, < ppositrg and McK«nzle* of
Kentucky, opposing.
McKenzie spoke at length from tlie
standpoint, that congress by iia wavs
and moans committee should perform
the duty which it was proposed to dele
gate to a commitc-ion no batter fitted for
it Mum the wavs and means committee
ought to be. He further objected to
tho provision empowering tho presi
dent. to appoint tlie com
mission, if a commission there
must bo, bolding that congress was en
tirely competent to select tho members
of such commission and should select,
them. His speech was lull ot humor
aud sarcasm, and bore hard upon tlie
•‘do nothiug”lpolicy of tlie present con
gress and its wavs and means commit
tee. McKenzie has a fine voice ami his
speech was listened to as intently, and
enjoyed oh much, by tho republicans
by tho democrats, and its conclusion
,s received witli applause from both
sides of the house.
The committee then rose.
King, of Louisiana, introduced a bill
appropriating $6,000,009 f>»r the im
provement anti construction of tho
Mississippi levees Referred.
The house then adjourned.
MKKATB,
At 2 o’clock tho senate temporarily
laid aside tlie regular order, tin* Missis-
iippi improvement bill, and Me Dill ad
dressed the senate upon Hi" regulation
of the inter-state commerce bill intro
duced by him, creating n board of rail
way commissioners, being informally
taken up.
Upon tho conclusion of ids remarks
the bill was referred.
A message was received from tlie
president relative to a convention to
define the boundary lino between tho
United States and Mexico. Referred.
The house bill, appropriating $495,000
to supply tlie deficiency for printing
lor the current year, was called up and
passed.
Tho chair then announced tho Missis
sippi river improvement bill as the or
der of business, and after a statement
by Miller, of California, that ho would
defer pressing the consideration of the
Chinese bill until alter the pending
order was disposed of. George
proceeded to advocate the bill as
proposed to be amended by increas
ing the appropriation to §15,000,000 and
applying tho money in tlie discretion
ol tlie river commission to the rebuild
ing ol levees. Ho said tlie question
was to his constituents the most im
portant of tlie session; that the area
covered by the recent overflow (extend
ing east and west on an average of six -
ty miles) was larger titan that of inn
states of Massachusetts, Mew Damp'-
sliire, Vermont, Connecticut and Rhode
Island, all combined.
It contained 24,000,000 acres of ars
hin land, of which not more than 2,090,-
000 are now cultivated, and it was esii-
msted that if levees are rebuilt, over
10.000. 000 acres of the host land in the
world would be brought Into cultiva
tion, which are not now cultivated,
and which cannot be cultivated sue
cessftilly without the building ol
levees. Within this area, even in the
slipshod way in which cultivating has
proceeded in that section si see the war.
2.500.000. 000 pounds of sugar would be
produced iu addition to tlie present
production, seven and a half million
acres of cotton land, which would be
saved would produce an annual yield
worth about §750,000,000. Taking om
tlie cotton ami sugar portions, we had
still one million acres in Tennessee,
Kentucky, Illinois aud Missouri suita
bin for tho production of ceroals. Thus
much would l>e added to the produc
tive wealth of ; lie countrv by protect
ing this area from ovnrll »w, ami the
question was whether congress
would appropriate tho necessary
money to this end or con
sign that country to an
eternal jungle and forest. In reply to
the inquiry, why if thiH country was
capable of such production its inhabi
tants woro not able to make the neces
sary improvements for them selves, he
said that, its wealth was not actual, but
potential, and. therefore, of that class
which depended upon aid from the
government for its development. lie
said there was nothing in tlie charac
teristics or size of tho Mississippi, or in
the nature of its bod, which prevented
a successful application to it of tlie
levee system which had been applied
with such satisfactory results to
the Nile and the Rhine. Ho ar
gued that tho power of congress
to make levees results from
the conceded power to improve, not the
channel, but tho navigation of the riv
er and its tributaries, and then replied
to arguments against the measure. Ho
assorted tlie constitutional p »wor of
congress to make the improvements,
while admitting that it could not do
this solely as a means of protecting
lands from floods. In this connection
ho cited tlm opinion of exports ami
itheis that levees have a direct Gleet
m deepening tlie channel.
The bill went over until to-morrow
without action.
Coke, from tlie committeo on com
merce, reported favorably,with amend
ments, the bill for the construction of
a street railroad and wagon road bridge
over Rio Grande river.
The senate then adjourned.

An Outbreak Among tlie Tribe* In

Special to the Enquirer-Sun.1
Han Francisco, April 20.—A Wilcox,
Arizona, dispatch states that tho Logos
band of Warm Spring Indians loft Han
Carlos reservation oarly yesterday
morning. A. D Htorm, chief of police
on the reservation, who had gone out
to ascertain il any renegades woro lurk
ing near tlie Warm Springs Indian
camp, was killed; also one of ills In
dian polico. It is thought that a num
ber of renegades were at tlie Indian
camp last night and induced tlie Warm
Spring Indians, who wore formerly a
part of Victorio’H people in Now
Mexico, to go on the warpath. Major
Scofield, with sixty men from Camp
Thomas, crossed tho river atSubangeles
on trail of tlie fugitives. General
Mackenzie is now at Fort
Btyard. It is believed Gan. Foraytlie,
with all available troops iu his com
mand is already iu tlie field to cut off
the hostiles and protect the Gila river
and Frisco river settlements. The
UhtruhuhuHnH also threaten to break
out. Mainr Hcoliold, with a garrison
at Fort Thomas, will have his hands
full to keep them quiet.
Still another Arizona dispatch says
in viow of the recent outbreak, Gen.
Wilcox ordered two companies of cav
alry to scour tlie Dragoon ami Mule
mountains to look for renegade In
dians. Gen. Wilcox, in a dispatch to
tlie governor of Arizona, says: “I do
not know liow far tins outbreak will
spread, but would advise tho military to
be notified everywhere. Gov Trim e has
notified the settlers at Globe, Bowie
and Ulifton, ami also Gov. Sheldon, of
Now Mexico, of the outbreak.
A dispatch from Tucson says about
lit) bucks are on tlie warpath, sixty of
whom aro supposed to lie returned
renegade Chlriouhmis. A report has
just been received by a runner, via
Saffonl, that Eagle creek lias been
raided by tho Jir and oilier renegade

lowing persons were probably killed:

whom fifty are bucks.

THE U. S. AND MEXICAN BOUNDARY
LI N E.
The letter of the secretary of war ac
companying the message of the presi
dent in regard to tlie United States and
Mexican boundary, stales tlie views
of chief of engineers as to the practica
bility, duration and expense of tho
undertaking and estimates that tlm
work will require about two years and
will cost about §175,415. lie
suggests tho propriety of making a rc-
cunnoissanoo with a small party to
determine upon the details before
beginning the work. A draft of the
convention on the subject, submitted
by iho Mexican minister, provides that
the work hIihII he performed by an in
ternational boundary commission—
each government to appoint an engin
eer in-chief and such number ol asso
ciate engineers as may ho doomed nec

Physical Degeneracy in Cities
•Tlie best season of tlie year for esti
mating lilts comparative health of
ity residents and country people is
he early spring, for winter gives in-
reusc of appetite, and compels stout
plijBlcul resistance of low tempera
ture. Tlie comparison is decidedly
against city life. Young and old,
rich and poor, Hie denizens of large
•ities appear to physical disadvan
tage beshle rural residents of (qua!
intelligence, lit tlie city there are
many luxuries that come to he re
garded as necessities, exercise worth
the name is almost unknown, tlie
atmosphere out of doors is far inferior
to that twenty miles away, while in
*s, thanks to small rooms, small
wall exposure and imperfecL plumb
ing, the air is generally unfit to
breathe. City people, us a rule, arc
far more careful in I heir physical
habits than country people, hut no
attention to minor details can
;om pen sate for luck of exercise, pure
air and i he vigorous appetite that in*
Hures sufficient physical repair. City
people may show rosier faces and
brighter eyes than their country
lousins, lail consumptives, at a cer
tain stag** of their malady, can outdo
either. The test of health is endur
ance, and judged hy tins, either men
tal or physical, the city man is (lie
inferior of tlie countryman. Tin*
rage for athletic sports among city
youth is good as fur as it goes, but it
does not go far enough; of the nicm-
i of boat clubs, hall clubs and sim
ilar organizations about one in ten do
something whiletheother nine think
it Hufficientsport to thrust their hainls
into their pockets and look on. There
plenty of ways of overcoming
most of the degenerating inllticnccs
of city lile, hut tlie fact that few peo
ple avail themselves of them shows
that tiie city man does not even know
what good physical condition is.- -A.

Freddie Lutz was tiie second of tlie
Rridetdiurg triehiniasis victims to
succumb to tho ravages of tlie dread
ful worms He survived until Satur
day morning, which was much
longer than Dr. Burns expected him
to live. The doctor last week made
a thorough examination of tlie flesh
cut from Mrs. Lutz, hut, could dis
cover no evidence that the trichina*
had penetrated into tlie muscular
fibre, and u post-mortem examina
tion of the remains was made which
resulted in tiie discovery tiiat tlie
bowels imd stomach were terribly in
flamed, and that tlie mucus was full
of t ruehina*. Under tlie microscone
tlie worms could lie plainly
seen in large numbers, anil
in every stage of devel
opment. Specimens of tlie diseased
mucus have been preserved by Dr.
Burns, who will at some future time,
after lie lias thoroughly digested tlie
ease and tested every theory in con
nection with it, make it the subject
of uu article to lie reail to tlie Phila
delphia County Medical society. Dr.
Burns Hays tiiat Mrs. Lutz,and prob
ably Freddie, died from tlie loss of
vitality caused hy the ravages of tlie
trichina* up tlie secretions of mucus
in the stomach before tin* worms had
succeeded in penetrating to the mus
cles. The question of life and death
with the others is simply as to wheth
er the trichime in their cases have
gotten beyond themucusand into tlie
flesh. I f they have, nothing can save
the lives of those afflicted ; if they
have not, it is possible that tlie pa
tients may recover. Mr. Lutzappears
to l>e a little better, while tlie others
are about in the same condition as
last reported.

“Do pustor said it war’a sin to

“De pastor said dat a Christian

“De pastor spoke of de sin of greed,
