THE INDIAN TERRITORY.
Facts About It and About the People
Who Live There.
From the Washington Post.
Maj. John F. Lyons of the Indian terri
tory is a gentleman of extensive informa
tion, and having lived in the territory is
thoroughly informed as to the condition
and prospects of its various Indian m
habitan s. Ho believes the Indian, under
proper conditions, can be civilized and made
a good, useful citizen. “Tho Indian terri
tory is as peaceable a country as there is in
the world,” said he, “and as'safe a place in
which to live. I would rather take mv
chances traveling through the territory a't
night with a large sum of money than
going up Pennsylvania avenue. The Chey
ennes and An apahoes are the most recent
additions to the territory. A few years
ago they were among the wildest and worst
Indians on the plains. Now they are be
coming very good teamsters and traders.
They are quick and impulsive, and know
how to drive a bargain as well as a team
They haul their own products to market,
run freight wagons and do a great deal of
work of the klud that the ordinary eariv
settler or frontiersman has to do.”
“Which of the tribes has made the great
est advance?"
“The Cherokees. They are a prosperous,
well-organized nation. The money which
the government allowed them years ago for
their lands is invested in government bonds,
and they draw the interest regularly. One
half of this interest goes to wnat is called
the national fund—that is the fund for the
support of the government—3s per cent, to
their school fund and 15 per cent, to the
fund for the support of orphan children. In
this way they are admirably provided for.
They had a female college, which, unfortu
nately, was burned, but they will soon have
another that will cost about $75,000. They
also have a college for boys, the buildings
of which cost $100,000.”
“Do you think all Indians could be
brought up to the high standard of the
Cherokees?”
“Under the same conditions, yes; that is,
the leading tribes, but not by huddling them
together on reservations after the present
fashion of the government, They ought to
be brought into actual contact with white
people enough to have before them tho
actual methods of civilized people. As long
as they are left to themselves on the wild
plains they will be nothing but savages.”
“Wfcat is the sentiment of the tribes of
the territory concerning the Oklahoma
scheme?”
“Against it unanimously.”
“Why?”
“The reason is simple enough. It is pro
posed in the Oklahoma scheme that the
government shall pay the Indians only
$1 35 an acre for their land. If they want
to sell they can get nearly three times that
much for it from private parties. At the
last Cherokee council there was received an
offer of $3 an acre for the same, and it is
proposed to include in the Territory of Ok
lahoma. The only people I know of who
want to see the territory of Oklahoma
established are an adventurous cla-s who
live on the borders of Kansas, Missouri and
Arkansas. They are, in the main, a shift
less lot, and would like to rush in and pick
up the land of the new territory for a mere
song.”
“Are any large tracts of land yet leased
to outside cattlemen by the Indians?”
“Yes; the Cherokees receive SIOO,OOO a
year from a lease of this kind. This is for
the use of grazing lands that would be in
cluded in the Oklahoma Territory, and in
cludes 6,000,050 acres. What they receive
every year on this lease is 5 per cent, on
$20,000,000. Under the Oklahoma bill they
would receive less than $8,000,000 for this
land, and their income would be cut down
to less than one-half.”
CRAIO TOLLIVER’S NEPHEW.
Only a Boy, but Likely to Sustain His
Uncle's Reputation for Killing.
From the Louisville Post.
The dispatches to the morning papers
bring the intelligence that young Cal Tolli
ver has killed a man in Elliott county. Cal
is a nephew of the late Judge Tolliver of
Rowan, rest his soul. He is a mere boy,
scarcely yet rounded 18. In yesterday’s
embroilment the young brave fleshed his
maiden tomahawk. Though he has plotted
in the dark councils of the immortal Craig,
and fought like the devil in the battle
that resulted in that hero’s death, he had
never before sbeu blood. It is surprising
that he murdered his man in su h a butch
er’s fashion as he did. He chopped him
over the sconce with a common wood ax,
and let his spirit out through the holes the
flying skull-chips made. There isn’t a
blacksmith in all the mountains but could
have done a better job. One would suppose
that, bred up in the traditions of the Tolli
vers as he has been, and versed in the dark
rubric of the family’s lawless faitn, Cal
would at least have shot his victim. His
bungling deed is enough to make the artistic
Craig turn in his grave.
I have the honor of a personal acquaint
ance with Cal Tolliver. When I last saw
him he was 16 years old, and small for bis
age. His face was round and ruddy, and
as bright and happy-looking as any other
boy’s. His hair is dark, but his eyes are
blue. The youngster was as quick in his
motions as a catamount, and had the long,
swinging, easy stride that one notices in a
tiger in the menageries. There was never
a sign of a weapon ou him. He carried a
38-caliber revolver in the front pocket of his
pants, and generally had his hand upon it.
(>nce I asked him for some memento and he
gave me a cartridge from his pistoL _ The
lead of the cartridge had a cross cut in its
end with a penknife. Not knowing why
the young cutthroat should thus mark his
bullets with so sacred a figure, I asked what
it meant. “A ball cut that way won’t go
round a bone,” he answered coolly and
naturally. His reply was a good com
mentary on the Rowan vendetta. It meant
that when a feudsman shot he shot for
blood.
I nave often seen Cal playing about the
depot at Morehead with a crowd of the
town’s ragamuffins. He spun tops and
played marbles and pitched nickels like the
other boys. In these divertissements he
looked like anything but a fighter. Boone
Ix>gan once told me that Cal, with all his
boyish looks and ways, was the most des
perate man in the Tolliver faction. He was
in the posse that murdered the two Logans,
cousins of Boone. He fought in the battle
that Craig was killed in. Inste id of mak
ing a dash for the brush, like ths other men
of bis side, he stole under a meat-house
and lay there till dusk, and then slipped
away to the woods. It is safe to s:iy
he will never be triad for his recent mur
der. What few people in Elliott county
who are not hia relations are his friends
and clansmen tried and true. Elliott
county is the eyrie of the Toliver vultures.
Among its deep woods and hills they
preened their wings for their swoon on
Morehead. In these days of their fallen
fortunes they live there. They live on
snug farms and eat of the fat of the land.
Their homes are typical mountain homes.
Their latch string hangs on tho outside.
There is abundance of good cheer within;
old-fashioned fire places with roaring wood
fires to smoke a pipe by, and plenty of
moonshine liquor to drink. There the Tol
livers are not feared, but loved. In those
hills they can muster a thousand armed
men at a day’s notice.

BURIED IN A HOUSE’S RUIN3.
The Trying Experience of Fanner
Scheick and His Family.
From the Chicago Tribune.
John Scheick, a farmer living on a coun
try cross roads twelve miles west of this city
and near the Elgin branch of the North
western railway, had his house smashed into
kindling wood and his wife and nine little
Scheioks scattered all over the township bv
one of the mo.>t peculiar accidents on record.
No one was hurt, but Mr. Scheick has
learned a lesson in house moving. The
story, as told by Mr. Scheick and put in
English, Is as follows:
For nearly two decades the Scheioks had
lived in a frame house just south of the
railway track in Schaumberg township. It
was a cottage of four rooms, but was suffi
cient for the desires of Mr. Scheick and his
family of fourteen, including wife, children,
and three hired men. Sometime ago Mr.
Scheick traded his farm for that of a neigh
bor. .The new property was situated about
half a mile north of the railway track.
After harvesting was over Mr. Sctieick and
his hired men dug a cellar and built the
wall, intending to move the family cottage
to the new site.
Tuos lay night was decided on for the un
dertaking. Duriug the day the house was
moved from its foundation to the country
road. Mr. Scheick argued that the journey
acrossthe tracks should be made during the
night, inasmuch as the danger from passing
trains would be reduced to the minimum.
Mr. Scheick and his hired men had consulted
a time-table, and, as they figured it,no trains
would pa s during the hours necessary to
cross. To still further insure his property
and family from danger the farmer engaged
the services of two neighbors, to each of
whom he gave a bottle of schnapps. One
he sent eastward down the track, and the
other to the west. They were instructed to
stop any extra train that might come along
while the great undertaking was in pro
gress.
The housemover then began his deadly
work. Mrs. Scheick and the children were
asleep in the house. The track was reached
and one corner of the house was half way
across. At that instant the roar of an ap
proaching locomotive was beard. Mr.
Scheick and his men went calmly on with
their work. Were there not two trusted
lieutenants to signal the iron horse? Alas!
his lieutenants were peacefully sleeping off
the effects of the schnapps. The house was
nearly across when the locomotive rounded
the curve under a full head of steam.
The sight paralyzed Mr. Scheick for an
instant. Terror-stricken, he ran toward
the engine, bis long hair flying, his arms
extended, and all the time shouting “Stop!
stop!” His helpers made the quickest fence
jumping time on record, and tnen from the
adjoining lot breathlessly awaited the shock.
There was a loud toot and biff-bang. The
house lay scattered tweoty feet to the north
ward.
The men ran to pick up the dead and
dying. From the rums, one by one, crept
the little Scheioks, their eyes bulging from
their little sockets. Then followed Mrs.
Scheick with the baby.
“Vat vos dot?” was her first inquiry.
One of the hired men wiuked to his com
panion and replied, “It vas ein skiclone.”.
When Mr. Scheick recovered his faculties
he started down the track, armed with a
horsewhip. Ere long there floated back on
the chilly air sounds of a conflict, above
which a pleading voice could be heard
shrieking, “O my! Omy 1”
WITH CRUTCHES FOR WEAPONS.
A Singular Battle Between One-legged
Men Who Met by Chance.
From the Boston Herald.
Two one-legged men met in the city hall
court yesterday afternoon. One of them
had just come from a neighboring bar-room,
and as he planted the end of his crutch
upon the pavement it had a tendency to slip
away from him. He cut a comical figure
in attempting to regain his equilibrium just
as be came up with the other man, who was
short in his anatomy. The latter laughed
loudly to see his brother of the crutch dance
about upon his single leg in an effort to
steady himself and bring his wooden prop
up to the perpendicular.
“You laughing ’t me?” he asked, as he
leaned against the granite wall surrounding
the city ball grounds.
“Yes; that was the funniest act I ever
saw.”
“You’re pretty funny, aincher?” and the
tipsy man squinted his eyes and to
edge away from the wall. "“I’ll tell you a fun
nier thing than that,” he continued; “oue
that will make vou laugh a whole week.”
As he finished the sentence he lifted his
hickory support and aimed a blow at the
head of the man who ha 1 excited his anger.
The latter anticipated him, and before the
crutch fell he lifted his own and both sticks
met. Then ! egan one of the most peculiar
combats ever seen in this latitude. It was
a battle of crutches. The sober man had
now become thoroughly aroused, and began
to use his stick witu a vicious ess that
meant business. He was not ns large as his
antagonist, but being sober both were on
equal terms.
Whack! Bang! Wish-h-h! Tho air was
filled with crutches.
The singular contest had attracted an Im
mense crowd, and the narrow street was
packed with men and boys, who, however,
gave the combatants all the room they
wanted as the crutches were swung about
In the most promiscuous manner.
“Laugh’t me, will you*” and the boozy
man swung his stick around in an attempt
to knock army the remaining leg of tue
other fellow.
By a singular collision of the crutches
both men lost their hold of them, and they
flew out into the croud. Before they were
returned the men clinched, and resumed the
battle at short range. They bobbed about
like floats in a chopped sea, and the stumps
of their lost logs worked backward and for
ward with the rapidity of the eccentric rods
of a fast-running engine.
“Laugh’t me, will you*” again shouted
the larger man, as he tried to butt the other
in the 1. ft eye.
“Go down to the museum and get a ”
Before the sentence was finished both
men fell to the sidewalk, the small man un
derneath.
“Laugh’t me, will you?” and the heavy
man jabbed his stump plump into the stom
ach of his wriggling antagonist.
“Yes I will. Go down to the mu ”
“Laugh ’t ”
A big policeman ran out of station 2 at
this stage of the conflict and arrested the
little fellow who was underneath and did
not provoke the fight.
A Tender Spot for an Old "Confed."
At Atlanta on Thursday a small-sized old
man was seen approaching the sixth ward
polls.
It was evident that ho wanted to vote,
and he was immediately surrounded by
the electioneering gentlemen who were
present.
They learned on approaching him that he
was deaf, and each worker began yelling
out the advantages of the ticket he repre
rented.
The old man seem puzzled and looked In a
bewildered manner from one to the other,
as if undecided how to act.
Seeing anew voter pres nt Mr. Stewart,
the one legged candidate for coroner,
pushed his way through the crowd and
touched the deaf man on tho shoulder.
The little fellow looked arouud, and
without saving a word Mr Stewart handed
him a ticket with one hand, while he
pointed with the other first to a confederate
vet ran's badge on bis breast and then to
the empty leg of his pants.
The deaf man looked at the old soldier’s
crutch for a moment, and then dropping
all tho other tioketi, a<oe,>tel 1h * one
offered by Mr. Stewart ant deposited it in
the ballot box.
