The Modoc Indiana In- Oklahoma ara olng home not to tb lava beds In CsU-f.'.'T-ila. whence they were taken to tha Quapaw Indian reservation nearly forty years aco, but to the Klamath reservation of tha Modoca In Oregon, where they will get lands In exchange for their allotment 'In Oklahoma. It 1 a peculiarity of the Mo doc that he desire to die on tha spot "where he" was born. The Modocs have been homesick ever since they went to Oklahoma, ' and their return to tha north west Is the result of their constant appeal to the authorities at Washington. The removal of the Modocs to Oklahoma followed their defeat after their bloody campaign against government troops In the lava beds, where they were com manded by Captain Jack. They assassi nated and butchered alt except two of the peace commission aent -to them by tha secretary of war. When tha Modocs rt ached Oklahoma there were thirty-nine men, fifty-four women and sixty children, many of whom were sorely wounded. Among them were such notable leaders as Scarfucod Charley, Steamboat Frank and Shacknaaty Jim. Their arrival In Baxter Springs la well remembered by old citizens, . Age and diaease have cut down the Modocs until only sixty remain. Nearly all their old leaders have. died. In going to the Klamath country, from which they fled when they entered the lava beds In California, these Modoc .will be among the Klamath Modocs, whom they .thoroughly hate and despise because of the .arrogance of the Klamath band. The Oklahoma Modocs were moved from t California to Oregon only to have their Oregon kinsmen say ' to them: "You can stay here, but it is our coun try. Tour horses can eat -the grass, but .It .la our grass. You can catch fjsh, but they ara our fish. ... . . . .. . This waa more than Captatn Jack and his people could bear, and they stole away and returned to their old haunts In California. When the federal government tried to "make them go back to Oregon the Mo docs tegan fighting, and sought refuge In the inaccasflibe lava beds. A commission slon established its camp about two was aent to treat with them. Tha eommla nilles from the retreat of the Modoea In the lav beds and midway was pitched a tent at which the council ahould be held. - No Sooner had the commissioners as sembled In the tent than they found that dedtk was at hand. Captain Jack suddenly shot Oeneral Canby, advisor of the com missioners. " Canby's throat waa cut ' and his uniform ' stolen. ' The Rev. Elesser Thomas, a commisioner, also was slain and '. hla itedy robbed and mlltllated. Two of the 'commissioners escaped. Th-United States government then pat a large body of troop in the field, and the Modoca were pursued night and day , until they surrendered. October I, 1873, Captain Jack, Black Jim, Boston Charley and Schronchln Jim were hanged at Fort Klamath, Ore., for the murder of Canby and Themes. Boon afterward the Califor nia Modoca were taken to Indian Territory, Kansas City Journal.

The medical school, the dental college and the school et music are now affiliated schools of the State university. The school ot music la strictly a private institution and from It tha state institution receives no Income or fee. though it must stand for the criticism should any pupil be dis satisfied with the fees charged by thla school, or with Its methods. The denial college is almost eliminated from the uni versity now. It charges a pupil a fee and If work is desired St the university the college pays that fee. The medical college Is run something on the same order. Tin student, however, takes two years of the work here and the other two years at Omaha. It will be recommended that this school be taken over entirely by the State university. BOTES OF PKRC SORMil. Praf. Grearajr Gives Iateee-sting Leetare os Parliamentary Law. Prof. T. M.

Tillman rose to smite It, the state of South Carolina was dom inated by an oligarchy made up of Illus trious families. This .realms was partly political and partly social. It waa a purs government frugal and honest It was never guilty of extravagance, and never accused of graft But the great families ruled, though the form was a representa tive commonwealth.

Arte the adoption of th federal cRnetltntlon came the Butler, the Caihouna, Oalllard. Hay dc, Legare, Preston, Pickens, McDuffle, Barnwell, th Rhetta, Chestnut Hamilton, Hammond. Hampton and others. There was commingled th blood or Scotch-Irish and Huguenot and perhaps U was th ell mat that mad It so fervent and so Im petuous. It scorned the spoils of ofrtee. did this oligarchy, for a glance will show that alnce the federal government ' was established but four eitlxens of South Care Una bar been called to the cabinet and but two hav sat on the supreme bench. The state furnished but one minister to England, Thomas Plnckner, appointed by Washing ton, serving four years, and but one to Franca. Charles C." Plnckney, also ap pointed by Washington, eervlng one year. No South Carolinian ever represented the United States st tha court of Austria or Grmany or Italy. Under Washington our minister to Spain was that same Thomas Plnckney for two years and later Jefferson appointed Charles C. Plnckney to Madrid, where he remained four years. Three South Carolinians represented the United States at the eourt of the csar Henry Mlddleton, one year, appointed by Monroe: Francis Pickens, two years, appointed by Buchanan, and James L. Orr, one year, appointed by Grant Thus It win be observed that this oli garchy of aristocratic famine, was no vul gar association of pollticiU bosses Intent on official patronage. And therein wa Jta vi tality and its strength. Less than twenty-five vaara m. r Jamin R. Tillman determine! to destroy mis arwiocraiio regime, it was a battle of the giants.

' Certainly nothing like it ever before iransplrtd "la that theater. It recalled the presence of the rude. Gaul In th Roman senate, as recorded In ancient etcry. Tillman was fierce in bis denunciation of the then derao eratlc president and the democratic secre tary of the treasury. Nor was be content with that He assailed everything political then In existence, and talked as though he felt thst there was put one honest man in public life, and he a senator from South Carolina, with but one eye and a pitch fork in hi hand. But Tillman got bravely over that A he eame to know the senate be respected it Blunt to vulgarity, he was honest te the core, and the senate 'cam to, respect him and senators lovs him. Pertiape had he been a greater Intellect and a thoroughly cultivated scholar he would have made for himself a smaller plac. Certainly he would not hav been the picturesque figur b became. Not In breadth of Intellect, hot In learn ing, not In eloquence, but In resistless force of character, Ben Tillman Is the greatest man South Carolina aver produced, and one of the most extraordinary men our coun try has produaed. Washington Post f MASTER HAND AT BILLIARDS w "a Fraetlea Caa Freda a Player Like Jake Seefr. Nature seldom produces a great billiard player. When one reflects how much th gam 1. played. In every great and small ionn in this country and In Europe, a is impress: with the small number of players who reach grwU distinction in the game. And the aam players remain prominent tnsny years, with only sn pc-1 caslonal new arrival among their ranks. ! w e remember twenty-five years ago that the bulk of the great players of that day were comprised in the name of "Wlaard Jake" Schaefer. "Student" George Slosson, Daiy, Sutton, VIgnaus, During that time these same men continued almost in th same relative position of, excellence and comparatively few others developed Into greatness. The most startling phenomenon in this stretch of time up to th actual present waa Ivea, who bad a most brilliant but brief career. The dflath of Schaefer has removed one of th moot gifted of the few greatly gifted plsyers that this game has produced. He had wonderful qualities of nerve and touch. Hs wa a bora gonitis. No amount of practice can produce men like Schaefer. Thlnlt of the quick generations r bail players that com and go almost be fore we know It Base ball olavsra nr the first dualities ar( M coolpirtj w)th billiard players, as thick as files in sum mer. Ta billiard player of distinction require a nervous system which In some respects is of extraordinary dolleacy and which does not happen along very often. Great billiard players may be compared with great violin piayera. They are very few, and their organisation is subtle and delicate, halrtrlgger. Schaefer had the temperament of the artist Ha worked bettor under excite ment It did not rattle him, but attuned kla nerves more delicately to the situation. That la why pae.pl said he had such wonderful nerve. I this respect be was like those sotors and actresses who never go on tha stag without narvouaseaa, which la th coadttloo of their acting wall. PhVgmatJ persona never max th best Send for ths actors or th best billiard players or the beat violin players. They have a nervous organization so delicate and senatlva that no event for them Is a repetition, a matter of routine, hat a totally new experience which calls for a new and subtle adjust ment which enhances their nervous sensi bility for the Important moment and In sures perfect accuracy.
