their race against the whites, but all far abo.re the blanket Indian of the reservation. They come quietly and peace fully to the enrollment places, making of the enrollment days a sort of picnic. Most of them, even the fuliDioous, wear mo dress of civilization. One of the men who will become a citizen of the United States is Zeke Proc tor, a Cherokee and a bad Indian. Several years ago he killed seven men near Westville and shot the deduty marshal who tried to are rest him. As a rule tne fullbloods are docile and even kindly, bnt they have not the ability or energy of the halfbreeds, and it is probable that tbey will soon be come extinct. At present the five Tribes are the plutocrats of the American Indian race. What they will be after they have come into their full heritage is a problem npon the solution of which may depend the government's treat ment of all its other wards-' Should this scheme of naturaliz ing these Indians prove a success it ma? be repeated with other tribes. i riCL And So They're Engaged Sb.

The air from the av enue stirred the lace that screened the open windows and made the blooming marguerites in great high tubs about the room move on their fragrant stems. It was barbarously early for dinner, but ridiculously late for luncheon, but it had suited the mood of the man and the maiden who had met by accident and had been spending a delightfully 11 nch a peroneal day in town. Ilesides that there were trains to be taken bark to a fashionable resort, where break fasts, luncheons and dinners made such informal meetings as this quite impos sible. So, as the girl said, it was all the more fun. They were not even dressed fordinner and the head waiter, who was punctilious in such matters, giancea somewhat disapprovingly at the girl's linen shirt waist and her bamboo hat with a pouf of blue, tilted down over her brows. The man was a well-dressed, well-tubbed specimen. The room was almost deserted excepf for those two and the occasional cackle of a waiter was all that broke the si lence except their own discreetly-lowered voices. A small Kast Indian man picturesquely turbaned and robed in white came toward their table bearing a chafing dish upon a silver tray from wnicn he served them noiselessly with rice and chicken while a waiter poured wme jnio wo pale greenish classes. The service had all the dignity and importance of a rite. The girl's face took on a look of in lense satisfaction as she tasted the first morsel. Ashersun-kiwsed hands moved over her plate the man thought that sue was one or the few women who at gracefully. As a rule, they were too noncnaiant or too enthusiastic.
