Hundreds of White Men Have ritrhed
Tents Alone Choctaw Country.
1 NDKFENDEXOE,Kan., Nov. 2. Dur
ing tho last six weeks the matrimonial
business in tho Choctaw Nation, In
dian Territory, has been at Its high
est. All along tho borders of that
country there have beon bundrods of
tents pitched and occupied by white
men hunting squaw wives.
For many years a white rata marry
ing a Choctaw 6quaw immediately
camo into possession of Ofty-five acres
of choice, land in that nation and was
allotted so much money yearly by tho
government for each member of bis
family. Consequently the more chil
dren in the family, the larger tho
amount of money received. This rule
and the fact that the Choctaw girls
aro very attractive have made them
much sought aftor by the white men
A fow weeks ago the Dawes commis
sion issued an ordor providing that
aftor November 1. lS99,a man who was
not of Choctaw blood marrying an
Indian woman should not be allowod
to share in the lands and moneys cf
tho tribe. This ruling caused the
men who were anxious to share the
fortunes of squaws to marry much
eirlier than they had intended.
Consequently the Chictaw nation
baa been filled with white men bunt
ing wives and eincu this order was
made more than 600 white men have
married equaw wives. The great ma
jority of the Choctaw girls aro pure
white and have beautiful complexions.
Most of them have black hair and
eyes, although a few of them are per
feet blondes. As a rule tney are
h zbly educated anu if they have any
white blood in them at all they will
not marry Indians aod the white men
have heretofore been somewhat in
demand. The pirls marry at tho age
of seventeen.

Havana, Nov. 2. Voctpr H. Olm
sted, assistant director of census, has
returned to Havana, after inspecting
all of the provinces of the island, in ac
cordance with instructions from Wash
ington. He immediately visited Gen
eral Ludlow and informed him that
he had instituted an in vestigation into
all the cases of enumerators mentioned
in General Ludlow's letter to Gover-
nor General Brooke as being unfit and
that most of theee peraons had been
discharged.
The Havana newspapers generally
complain regarding the different kinds
of coinago used in the island. Tho
local hotels and business houses now
refuse to accept any currency except
American.

The rrod action of 11 old for 1899.
The world's production of gold for
1899, ir Australia and South Africa
maintain the rate with which they be
gan the year, will probably reach
000.000. or about $50,000,000 more than
in 1898. At the end of the current year
the three principal countries will rani
in the following order in the list of
gold-producing districts:
South Africa flOC.000,000
Australia 78,000.000
United States 74,000,000
The state of Washington, it Is
thought, will far exceed SU usual pro
duction; and the Klondike, which la
1897 and 1898 produced respectively
6,027.000 and 13.700,000 dollars worth
of gold. It is estimated will yteld in
1899 at least $20,000,000 in y.llow
metal. .

Who aro injured by tho use of coffeo.
Kccantly there has boen placed in all
tho grocery stores a new preparation
called Grnin-O, made of pure grains,
that takes tho place of coffee. The
most delicate etomacd receives it with
out distress, and but few can tell it
from coffee. It does not cost over ono
fourth as much. Children may drink
it with great bonellt. 15c and 23c per

The Spoilt Aiilnml.
If the sponge as 'brought up fresh
from the sea-bottom were a familiar
object, says Doctor Lydokker. few
would be in doubt as to its being an
animal. AVhen fresh, it is a fleshy
looking substance covered with a firm
skin, and if cut it presents somewhat
the appearance of raw meat. Its cav
ities are filled with a gelatinous sub
stance called "milk." American sponges
and those of 'all other parts of .the
world are inferior to the sponges of the.
eastern shores of the Mediterranean.
The finest of all sponges is the Turkey
toilet sponge, which is cup-shaped. The
American sponge most nearly ap
proaching it in quality is the West
Indian glove sponge.

Manila. Nov. 1. General Hughes,
commanding in tho Nisayan district,
has sent in an encouraging report. Ho
says tho island of Nesrros is now more
peaceful and ordorly than for twenty
years. The planters are pursuing
their business undisturbed by tho
bands of brigands which had long
levied tribute on them. The Amer
icans "have scattered the brigands and
propose to pursue them until they are
effectually suppressed. General
Young's column entered Cabanatuan,
north ct San Isidro, yosterdBy morn
ing. Colonel Parker, with two troops of
the Fourth cavalry, took possession of
tho deserted town of Aliaga. Captain
ll-ctson captured a telegraph operator
and his escort, finding a telegram to
Aguinaldo from an insurgent colouel
reporling that General Law ton was
killed in a recent light and that his
body had been sent to Manila. The
operator added Ihe.t COO insurgents
were approaching Aliaga from Tarlac.
Hat-on placed his scouts in ambush
awaiting them. . Colonel Hays, with
four troops of the Fourth cavalry, j
charged tho towns of Talavera and j
Cobat, disporting 150 insurgents and
pursuing them for three miles without
any loss. They, capiured two brass
cannon and a quantity of ammunition,
including many IJolchkiss shells
Ciptain Oatson took a storehouse and
quantities of rice, sugar, corn and
forty bull cars.

rapid advance is-demoralizing tho in

port them to bo lleeing to the hills.
There are many deserters and sick
men, and the former are taking their
arms to the Americans. The cavalry's
rapid movements aro a puzzle to the
insurgents, who think that tho Amer
icans, in striking so many place?, must
have overwhelmiLrg forces.
Aguinaldo is personally conducting
the campaign. He is asking the peo
ple for rico and is trying to replenish
the army with recruits, but without
success.
