Leland Stanford gave a luncheon today of twenty-four covers iu honor of Mrs. Hor son. It was the first formal entertainment given in her new white and gold diving room, which in its old-time light coloring’ brings back the fashions of a hundred years ago. ‘The silken draperies at the windows were drawn toyether to exclude the daylight and the globes in the chandeliers were shaded in Per- sian red silk so a8 to soften their light. ‘The twinkling of the tapers burning under pale yeliow cud silver shades illumined the tabie. ‘The dainty coloring of tho room was brought out to the best advantage and while the meal progressed the ladies had many objects all around upon which it was a plessure for their eyes torest, During the past week Mrs. Stan- ford has received several new pictures from Europe and these have been hung in the dining room. ‘Two marble statues which stand in the bay window had their beauty thrown out the more effectively with the silk draperies for a back ground. In the center of the bay-window alcove isa white and gold- tipped fountain in which gold fish gysten. All around the base is filled in with water plants and flowers, The added decorations to the room today were big branches of orange trees, with the fruit hanging thickly upon them, that were decking the high corners of the mantel and the buffet. ‘These oranges came from favorite trees at Senator Stanford's country place at Palo Alto, Cal. The table was laid for twemty-four. ‘The cloth was of pale blue satin-finished dam- ask. A gold plate was ateach cover, with a fringed napkin matching the cloth, and laid upon it a small satin card case. Upon each of these dainty little souvenirs the lady's name was painted in raised gilt lettering. On the reverse was a flower spray painted in water colors. ‘The silver aud gold epergne in the center of the table was filled with jonquils and lilies of the valley. Squares of Honiton lace upon silver blue satin flanked the epergne oneither side. On these rested sl- ver ‘loving cups, with the old-fashioned triple handles. ‘These were filled also with jonquils and valley lilies, Two silver dishes at the extreme end of the table held the same flowers. ‘The splendid servic? of gold and silver used and the exquisite Vienna glass made each article on the table a thing of beauty. ‘The wine flagons, all in Vienna glass, had tiny bows of jouqmi ribbon tying the handles, so as to conform to the color scheme of jonquil and blue, Ateach cover alittle rol! of Kissingen bread sticks were tied with the eame shade of ribbon. Hot-house grapes, white and purple, with straw- berries, cherries, plums, nectarines, peaches and pears, all from California, made tempting piles in the low fruit dishes.

Ons of the dificult questions connected with the management of the Indians is that which involves their status. “What isan Indian?” is 4 question that is easily raised but difficult to answer. Indian Commissioner Morgan has re- cently given in an unofficial letter an expres- sion of his views on thix important subject. At the outset he says: “Ihe matter is one so far- reaching, involving such grave consequences to so large a body of persons known as half- “breeds or mixed bloods, that Tam slow to ex- press any final judgment on it, until I ball feel that I have canvassed the subject im all ite bearings.” He then speaks of the origin of the name, which was given to the aborigines of this country by Columbus and the early yoyagers under the impression that the newly discov- ered country was a part of India. The nations, tribes or bands were treated by the settlers and the European countries under whose authority America was settled aud by the ited States as distinct political communities, Their right of property in the land was not recognized, but the right of occupancy was. ‘This right has beeu treated a# an encumbrance upon the fee, and grants made of land to which the Indiau right of ‘occupancy had. not been extinguished by the government have been made subject to this right. Each Indian has been decmed to have an equal interest im the property of his tribe, whether it be in oc- cupancy of lands, ora right in the lands, or moneys. Inaproperty sense, therefore, an Indian is one who is by right of blood, in- | heritance or adoption entitled to receive a pro rata share ef the common property of the tribe. The adoption of white men into Indian tribes was followed by their recognition on the of the tribes as members eujoving the rights of members of full Indian blood. ‘The issue of the murriage of white persons not adopted by the tribe with the Indian women have beeu treated by this government as Indians in all respects. ‘There appears to have been, the commissioner say. no adjudication of the rights of these per- sons commonly known #s half-breeds and | mixed bloods by the courte, Put under date | of July 5, 1856, Attorney General Cushing ex- reseed the opinion that half-breeds (and in is opinion he seems to use the expression ‘halt-breeds and mixed bloods” interchange- ably) should be treated by the executive as Indians in ail respects, so long as they retain their tribal relations, Attention 1s cailed to the fact that in the In- dian fawily the line of descent is through the mother. After quoting various acts, decisions and opinions Commissioner Morgan sa} ‘As long as the moter remains a member of the tribe her interest in the tribal property is only # personal interest and st her death re- verts to the benefit of the tribe. This would scem right in view of the fact that her chil- dren are also deemed to be members of the tribe and have status and rights of their owi therein. They belong to the tribe and in case of her death are cared for and supported by it. Lut when she separates herself from her tribe and becomes a citizen of the United States by intermarriage her children will be citizens aud will not have any status or rights of their own by law in the mother’s tribe. t “The issue of marriages between white per- Mrs, M.

Two railroad bills were before the Commis- sioners at the noon session of the board today. One bill, Senste bill 1876, to incorporate the East Washington Cross-town Railway Company, and the othor to amend the act giving the ap- proval and sanction of Congress to the route and termini of the Anacostia and Potomac River railroad in the District of Columbia. As the latter bill bas already been reported upon by the Commissioners its consideration was deferred. Commissioner Douglass then galled for those interested in the former, and Mr. E. H. Brown rose to object. He did not believe there was any necessity for the rosd in question, as it Pro) no needed accommodations. ‘What the people of the northeast wanted was easy access between tie east and west. He objected particularly to the occupancy of 7th and 8th streets. A road on them would practically destroy the streets. They were narrow. He did not think theroad would pay. He summarized iis objection by stating that he objected generally to the use of any streets ‘where the citizens received no benefit, ‘Mr. M. L Weller, on behoif of the railroad company, spoke in favor of the bill. The pro- posed road, he said, commences in Anacostia at the intersection of Minnesota avenue with Harrison street; thence along Minnesota ave- nue to and along Pennsylvania avenue, over Eastern Branch bridge; thence westward along Pennsylvania avenue to 8th street east; thence north along 8th street to C street Florida avenue; thence westwardly along — eer’ ite a ntol street. spoke at length yub- lic'need and demand ciaimed for the rod. ——__ ‘The Catholic University Lectures. sons adopted into a tribe and Indians of the tribe into which they have been incorporated are therefore. to all intents and purposes, just ae much members of the tribe as are the ‘insue of ma:riages of Indian members of the tribe of the full bloodand just as much entitled to benetit from the ‘common property of the tribe. In view of various considerations it seems to Commussioaer Morgan that, in determining the rights and privileges of mixed bloods, we must give to the term “Indian” a liberal and not & technical or restricted construction. It must be construed in its historical and mot in ite ethnological significance. — To Extend the Civil Service.
