Secretary Lane of the interior de partment has determined that the Indian minors of the five civilized tribes in Oklahoma—the Cherokees, the Creeks, the Choctaws, the Chick asaws and Seminoles —are to have better protection for their property rights. These Indian minors are on an average the richest children in the United States. It is estimated that while the approximate cost is three per cent, to settle a white mi nor’s estate, the expense of admin istering the estate of an Indian mi nor is at least 20 per cent. Guard ian fees, attorney fees and other ex penses make up this charge. In many cases gross misappropriation has been found. Such cases will be called to the attention of the grand jury and criminal prosecution insti tuted. Secretary Lane has directed | a radical reform under the supervi- , si on of Commissioner Sells.—New ! York World. DEER BECOME A NUISANCE .— New England Farmers Forced to Shoot . Them, and Game Warden Admits the Necessity. For some time past Farmer Wil- ‘ liam B. Frear of Hinsdale has noted a daily falling off in his milk supply of three gallons. One day the farm er’s son saw a buck deer fawn suck ing one of the herd of cows, while standing near, as though awaiting its turn, was a second fawn. The young man shot the fawn. The second fawn escaped into the woods. Mr. Frear reported the killing of the deer to the state authorities, who upheld his contention that milk was one of his farm products and he had a right to protect himself from loss and to safeguard his cows by shooting the fawn. Zachens Cande of Sheffield shot a deer while it was in the act of gir dling one of his apple trees, and the next day, discovering another deer in the same act, he shot that one also. He was exonerated in both in stances by the game warden.—Berk shire Courier. COW EATS WRITTEN LEASE. Because a Columbus (Ohio) cow ate a vest July 2, 1907, six years of litigation and hundreds of dollars in court costs followed. The vest contained a lease on gas land in Licking county and provid ed that the Bennington Oil and Gas company lease 246 acres of land from Park Decrow. The vest was hung on a railfence by Justice Ship ley, who drew the instrument, while the magistrate drank from a spring; the bovine grabbed the waistcoat while Shipley’s back was turned. A substitute lease didn’t satisfy either party and the case went into court. 1 The supreme court sent it back for a new trial. DIFFICULT DIAGNOSIS. A doctor attended an old lady from Scotland, who had caught a se vere cold. “Did your teeth chatter when you felt the chill coming over you?” asked the doctor. “I dinna ken, doctor; they were [ lying on the table I” was the pleas , ant. reply.

' YOUTHFUL GIANTESS A BRIDE Enghsh Girl Weighing Over 560 Pcunde Said to Be Active and a GOwd Housewife. The heaviest girl in the world, Nellie Lambert, a nineteen-year-old giantess, who weighs over 560 pounds, is shortly to be married. The bride, it is stated, possesses a waist line of seven feet four inches, her approximate diet each day consisting of: Three pounds of meat, four pounds of vegetables, three pounds of bread, six pounds of fruit, pounds of chocolate, three pints of cocoa and tea, a quart of milk. Mias Lambert, who hails from Leicester shire (England), is a great grand daughter of the famous Daniel Lam bert, who weighed 730 pounds. Once at Humberstone Gate Miss Lambert fell through the floor of the carriage in which she was riding. At Victo ria Hill, Henley, the axle of the taxi she was in broke, and once a cab step I gave way while she was getting into I the vehicle. To prevent similar acci ; rents in New Y’ork, her agent hired a I huge gilded closed concern on massive I wheels. Her future husband is Mr. I Albert Ensell, an innkeeper of Dale -1 end, Birmingham, a professional I weight lifter. After the marriage ■ the bridegroom contemplates making ! his debut on the music-hall stage, j and, unlike Sandow and Hercules, who lifted horses, he will lift his mammoth bride by his teeth right up on to a silver trapeze. Considering that by all accounts the lady, whoae biceps measure 27 inches, can scrub and cook without the slightest in convenience, and that she makes all her own clothes, Mr. Ensell may be congratulated upon getting a bride “among ten thousand.” ALL THAT WAS LEFT TO DO fi O’Rourke —McGuire called me a cock-eyed liar. O’Rafferty—An’ phat did yez do? O’Rourke—Sure an’ I wint fer th’ undertaker an’ th’ ambulance.” , HISTORIC RELIC. Wolsey’s wine cellar is to be pre served intact by the office of works in their great schemes of improvement in Whitehall gardens, one of the few remaining portions of the old palace of Whitehall. The apartment in question, which has a low vaulted roof, is claimed to be the wane cellar of Cardinal Wolsey, report says, and it at present forms part of the re freshment department at Whitehall gardens. A portion of the wall was laid bare some time ago, with the re sult that the original brickwork was > found to be in perfect condition, while further investigation behind , the rude stucco was the means of bringing to light the cardinal’s arms I carved in stone. It was from White hall stairs that Wolsey entered his barge and was rowed to Esher after his disgrace at the hands of Henry ' VIII., at which period the palace passed into the possession of ■ the , : crown. ’ ’ - I I TIDES OF THE MIND. Shakespeare tells us that there is a j tide in the affairs of men. Certainly ! there is a tide in the minds of men. He must be very unobservant of him- I self who does not know that the mind rises and falls, that it swells into 1 fulness and strength and then fades into emptiness and weakness, we ; know not how, we know not why. Formerly the tides of the sea were also a great mystery. Slowly did ob servation disclose that they were un der the influence of the moon, and, still later, of the sun. So with the tides of the mind. We are taught now that they are caused and gov erned by our faith and by our love. —Theophilus Parsons. THAT COULDN’T HAPPEN. **Bo the editor returned your story I Wasn’t that too bad!” “I expect so.
