I LID ORDER HAS BEEN REVOKED Saloons in Indian Country Will Not Be Closed. BALLINGER TAKES ACTION 8ays the Government Will Co-Operate With County and City Officials to Prevent Liquor From Finding Its Way Into the Hands of Indians—Re- iterates Power of Federal Authori- ties to Prohibit Sales. Washington, Oct. 8.—In a letter ad- dressed to the commissioner of Indian affairs, R. A. Ballinger, the secretary of the interior, gives notice that here- after the treaty law prohibiting the sale of liquor to the Indians in the “Indian country” in Minnesota must be enforced without favor or discrim- ination. Secretary Ballinger revokes the order which was to have become effective on Oct. 15 under which the sale of liquor was to have been per- mitted in certain towns and prohibited & others. The Ballinger letter is a notice to all persons interested that the govern- ment has the power absolutely to pro- hibit the introduction of liquor in what is known as the Indian country in Minnesota and that such power will be exercised if it is found that the law is being generally violated. On its face it would seem as if it was the intention of the department vigorous- ly to enforce the treaty law. As a matter of fact it is the purpose of the department, co-operating with county and city officials, to adopt measures that will prevent liquor finding its way into the hands of the Indians. Mayor Dumas and County Attorney ‘Witherow of Cass Lake and Mayor Davy and S. G. Comstock of Moor- head, who had another conference with Secretary Ballinger on the sub- ject of prohibition, are satisfied with the policy of Mr. Ballinger as outlined in his letter to Commissioner Valen- tine. The text of the letter follows: The Ballinger Letter. “From various petitions and com- munications addressed to me in con- nection with the enforcement of the acts of congress relating to the intro- duction of liquor into the Indian coun- try in Minnesota I feel called upon to express to you what seems to me to be the correct policy of the depart- ment in dealing with these questions. I fully understand and approve of the diligence of the Indian office in its efforts to enforce these statutes. It is true that there has been some con- tention respecting the right to en- force them. “The law, however, appears to be settled in respect to the authority of the department and it, therefore, be- comes purely a matter of administra- tion. In the administration of these statutes the department cannot coun- tenance discrimination or anything that savors of arbitrary, conscious or vexatious proceedings. The officers in the field are intrusted with a police duty to protect Indians under their supervision from the introduction of liquor, as contemplated by the statute. “You will, therefore, instruct your officers to secure convictions for vio- lations of these statutes where the evidence is available and proceed throughout the territory involved to enforce the law without discrimina- tion as to the persons or territory.” A Possible Remedy. “The ocean doesu't seem to agree with you,” consvled the ship’s doctor. who had prescribed everything con- ceivable. ‘ “Perbaps it would.” moaned the oth- er. “l haven't tried it yet."—Puck. Talent Recognized. “Jebbers doesn’t appear to have the slightest idea of practical polities.” “Yes.” answered Senator Sorghum; “his assumption of ignorance on the Bubject proves him a most astute poli- tician."— Washington Star.

MINN s Remarkable Violin Test. An ingenious test of old and new vio- lins, in which an instrument of mod- ern make was voted the finest. has been made in Paris. During the per- formance both critics and performers were in complete darkness, so that it was impossible to see which one of the seven violins selected for the test was being played. Then immediately after being used the instrument was placed under a cloth, and the lights were turned on for a few moments to en- able the critics to write down the votes, All the violins were played by two musiclans of high standing. and the compositions were written especi- ally for the test. The two violinists tried to bring out the best in each violin, and the result, decided by the votes, was interesting. The modern make of violin led the list with 102 votes. and its nearest rival for favor was a Stradivarius with 96 votes. Other old and famous makes of violins received 82. 85. 83. 82 and 80.—London Telegraph. Tender Hearted Maid. Once upon a time there lived a child of gentle mien and manners mild; she was so tender and so kind she wept to see window blind. She feared it might give the window pain to leave it stand- ing in the rain. Her maiden aunty she would beg not to stone raisins, beat an egg. or from potatoes take the eyes. Oh, how this maid did agonize! And when she saw her whipping cream with horor she would sob and scream. The very thought of killing time appeared to her a dreadful crime, and. though to music she inclined. to beat a measure seemed unkind. To see the cowslip by the river with ap- prehension made her shiver; to cut a page or turn it down would cause a deprecating frown. And when she saw them shivering in the chill au- tumn air she knitted stockings for the trees because their limbs were bare. Her heart so oft with anguish wrung caused this poor maid to die quite young.—Widow. Sensitive to Art. Said the art gallery guide, “Just watch the crowd awhile and see which of their antics impresses you most.” Presently the visitor said. *“I think it is the queer attitudes so many of them strike.” “Exactly,” said the guide. “They are imitating the poses of the figures in the portraits. Anybody who sits for a portrait is supposed to strike a graceful attitude. All these people who have never been painted realize the grace there is in the poise of the head, the turn of the wrist, the slope of the shoulders. They wish they could look like that, and unconscious- ly they try it. The men are as bad as the women. They straighten up: they droop; they tilt their heads; they arrange their hands and feet in imi- tation of the figures they admire most. Sometimes their attempts are very clever; again they are simply ridicu- lous.”—New York Times. The Waiting Championship. An Atchison woman who looks for good in everything is glad she mar- ried. *It has taught me patience.” she said. When a girl she flew into a tem- per if she had to wait five minutes for something she wanted. but now she waits and waits and waits and says nothing. She 'waited nine years for her new front porch, six years for her husband to take her to the theater and eleven years for him voluntarily, when there was no company around, to offer her a rocking chair. *“This,” she said recently to a friend who heard she was sitting up half the night waiting for her husband to come home, *is noth- ing. I can wait longer and say less about it than any woman who ever lived. 1 am glad 1 married; other- wise I could never claim the waiting championship belt.”—Atchison Globe. Work of the Beavers. The formation of the plateau on which Dubois is built is a matter of great curiosity. Beavers are responsi- ble for it. Long before the white men saw that section of Pennsylvania bea- vers built a buge dam in a well set valley. Year by year the stream wash- ed rich mud into the dam. and when the body of water was destroyed 640 acres of land flat as a table top were left. On this stands Dubois.—Altoona Tribune. His Hardships. “I suppose.” said the kind lady as she handed the husky hobo a generous wedge of apple pie, “that your-'lot is full of harships?” “Dat’s de proper word fer it, ma‘am,” replied the h, h, *“In de winter w'en de farmers ain’t doin’ nothin’ but eat- in' apples an' drinkin' hard cider it's too cold fer me to be trampin' aroun’, an” in de summer people’s allers offer- in’ me work.”—Chicago News.

They came near doing for me. I had got my eight lions arranged in their pyra- mid when the lion at the top saw the red roses in my corsage. He mistook them for meat—lions have poor sight— and down he leaped. He came for me open mouthed. Though 1 fired a blank cartridge in his face, he made with his paw a sweep at the roses that ripped me open from chin to waist. The other lions bounded forward. They weren't angry. They wore hungry. I had intellizence enough to perceive that. and just as they were leaping on me 1 tore off my roses and threw them across the ring. The big brutes left me at once, and while they sniffed the roses with disappointed growls I i staggered out of the iron door. 1 was roung at the time. young and light to wear anything red among hungry and vearsighted lions.”—Buffalo Ex- press.
