Cherokee* Oree Had a Newspaper That May Be Said to Have Be

come a Power.

The Cherokee Indians, when still occupying what now Is the slale of lieorgia, published a newspaper In their native tongue iu IH'-’S. One of their tribe. Sequoyah by name, in 1823 designed 86 characters that were to represent the Cherokee language in print. The national commit tee and council of the tribe meeting at New Ei bota, the capita! of '.heir nation, in 1826, voted a fund to buy type, u press and the necessary equipment. The paper was known as the Cheroke ■ Phoenix. Half of it was printed In Cherokee and half in English. Hundreds of rull-hlood Indians who otherwise would have remained illiterate all their lives, wore thus enabled to read after mastering the alphabet. These Indians became

DENMARK TO BE REPUBLIC?

According to R*portj, the Little Country May Abandon the Monarchical Principle Soon. News dispatches from Copenhagen stale that there is a possibility of the esrnhllslupent of a republic In Denmark. the little country that tins been a tnonareby since King liealt'detie ruled the country in 100 .4. D. Denmark is today a limited monarchy, ruled by King Christian, who divides his power with the two houses of parliament. During the war It suffered heavily in both its leading industries. dairying and the merchant marine. Many Danish ships were sunk by U-hoats despite their neutrality, and the large herds of cattle that hud supplied a large pint of Europe's butter and cream were killed for food. Denmark has a population of 2.500.* 000, a large part of whom live on small • arms. Its area Is 14,829 square miles, slightly larger than the state of Maryland. It Is densely populated, with 163 people to the square mile oo the mainland and 275 to the square mile on the many islands along the coast. Copenhagen, the capital and principal seaport, is situated on the island of "Zeeland. 7lie island folk form the merchant marine and*he fisheries, while Ibe farmers live ou the fertile mainland.

Iceberg Was an Acrobat. Not far from the spot where the Titanic wa* sunk by an iceberg In April. 1912, a fleet of 14 icebergs, some of them rising to more than 100 feet above the water line, were sighted by the steamship Munalres on a recent voyage. Captain Fleming of the Munalres says fhst one of the bergs gave a remarkable exhibition of tumbling as the vessel sailed post. It had apparently l««*t a good deal of Its under water weight through the action of the warm sea water, and as they waicbed It the great Iceberg suddenly tipped to starboard ami rolled over with sn Immense sp'ash. As If fell, a big section of the lop broke away, with the result that the balance was altered and the berg tumbled back again. Then. Just as it was righting Itself, another section broke off. and It tumbled once more. The sight was a most unusual one.— Edinburgh Scotsman.

Thraad In Manchuria. Almost all of the $2,000,000 worth of lotion thread Imported annually Into Manchuria comes from Japan, partly because Japanese manufacturers have tbe advantage over possible competitors of government encouragement and support, and partly because there tins been little competition from those sufficiently Interested In this market to study Its requirements ns have rhe Japanese, says the New York Times. Goods were placed with merchants on consignment until they became known, were extensively advertised, and sre now sold on liberal credit basis, so that American manufucturerN entering the market will not only have to compete on n quality basis, but should adopt similar methods of pushing their goods.

DRAW ON AFRICAN FORESTS

Plan on Foot to Increase World's Supply of Wood From That Source Going Forward. A reinforcement for the world demand for lumber is preparing in British East Africa, where there are between 2.000,000 and 3.000,000 acres of woodland lo draw upon, and a new Industry. very infantile at present. Is ex peered to grow so rapidly that tbe government Is now considering plans to Improve the harbor facilities for exporting the forests. The best wood Is suitable for wheel makers and wagon builders' ami the ranking of wood block paving, railway sleepers, bridges, ox yokqs, and ax, pick and tool handles. It also makes good flooring and lining boards. The builder, however, must needs he of a patient disposition if be postpones building until these British 1 East African woods are available. Meantime there are new sounds in some of the African forests, the rhythm of the woodsman's ax. the buzz of the sawmill, and the puffing of undersized locomotives on the narrow gauge tracks that are penetrating from the main line of railway into the wo(r> ands. And many a workman, no doubt, will some day work with tools whose handles grew in an African forest.

Ancient Chinese Art. Attention baa been called to a notable addition to the treasures of the } British museum, lu the shape of a i colossal Chinese figure in wood. It Is sculptured from cleverly Jointed , blocks, and represents a figure, in a | sitting posture, five feet, eight inches ^ in height. It is the first specimen of its kind lo tie added to the national i collections in Great Britain; the dale Is thought to be from 1120 to 1270 A. | L>. It is to be hoped that the Interesi j aroused will lead to further study of i this branch ef art. It is pointed out hy a writer In the Burlington Magazine of Art that in Cleveland, O., a competent scholar in connection with the museum is sent to China to stud" the art and collect suitable art treasures oo its behalf.

Cultivating Edibls Bamboo. The Japanese edible bamboo haa been successfully Introduced Into the southern portion of the United States by the department of agriculture. Several plantations are now established in Georgia and Isvulslana. Popularization nf tbe bamboo will furnish large home-grown supplies of this useful timber required by our manufacturing Industries. The giant grass grows a foot a day, and Us 50-foot stalk Is well adapted for making frames, furniture. ladders, trellises and barrel boons. The new sprout ts a delicious vegetable and resembles asparagus In flavor and In the manner of Us preparation. There Is an Increasing demand In America for the bamboo timber. and also for tbe edible bamltoo shoot.

Musi Havs Boon to Movie Show. A recent night In an eastern city two policemen saw a man swinging a woman back and forth from, the fourth story window of a building while she kept up a continuous screaming. They rasbed upstairs and Into the room, saved the woman and arrested the man But. they noticed that bis eyes were cloned. At police headquarters a doctor who examined him said the man was suffering from nightmare and was not aware of what he was doing. If we lived In that family It wouldn't he necessary to close the windows at night, they would be nailed down tight ail the time.—Capper's Weekly.

Aerial Postal in India. An Issue of Shipping and Engineering announces that the Bombay Hara cbl aerial postal service Is now In operation, using three-passenger De DavHand machines, currying 1.006 pounds of mull and other baggage. Malls ire delivered In Karachi on the day of their arrival In Bombay, and outward mails are dispurcbed on the day steamers are due to leave.

Ideal Pair. The proprietor of a drinking plsi-e in a southern province of the Philippines married a native woman whom he pronounced llte ideal wife. As Fritz discussed bis wares be informed his customers with mathematical certainty that Ids wife was “the bestesi voman In da vorld." No one disputed fill a Scotsman insisted upon knowing why she was. Tbe question ralber disturbed ;be mental processes of Fritz, but in a moment or two lie answered confidently: “Vat I dinks, she dinks:” The Scotsman was not quite .satisfied. “What does she think?" lie continued “Noddings," replied Fritz with bis usual stolidity.
