Federal Authorities Propose Publicity to Kill Illegitimate Ventures.

Washington, I)ec. 17 AttorneyOenral Wlckersham. In dlrhsln5 his rrusad agitinbt bucket t-hops. advocated publicity for legit imaf e corporaHon as an asmirinii- of prosperity, and oxprr-hMoiJ hlrnsc-ir m favor f properly framed Federal Incorporation law. "Publlrify for flu; legitimate corporation spell proserin, in my opinion." said th Attorney ;, n rul. "Isy publicity I rncHn that liusinrhH corporations Kiioulil not corneal tho records of their transactions, but nhould niiiK" them puhlie and nhould at all times deal fairly with tli-lr Mncklioldt-rs and the public In vnwrn'i. This. In my opinion, lb the In'! m ; 1 1 1 of encouran 1ng eonfldenco nmonir thono who have money to invohf, and among those Who am already utockholdeiH. Hut ahove all thb publicity and fxir dealing would almost entirely do nrfay with the many 'wild eat' financial Kcheroe which have thrived In tinpant, and which the government is endeavoring to Kuppretss by depriving them thp mho of tho mails, and In other ways. "Tho main difficulty has been that tho Investing public has been unable to distinguish because of the secretive policy of so nrany genuine bona fide Institutions between the legitimate and the llllgitlmate ones. The former can afford to deal openly with the public, hut the get-rlch-qulck concerns cannot. There Is nothing which would do more to divert the Investments of the country Into honest enterprises than the publicity of their financial conditions and business methods. The result would necessarily mean prosperity for all concerned. A federal Incorporation law properly framed would assist in bringing this about."

CHEROKEE BALL GAME. freedd by Songs and Dance Which Last All Night. The ball game as played by the Cherokees Is as Important to them as football or any other popular game Is to other people. The eastern band of Cherokee live on the Qualla reservation. In western North Carolina. The neighborhood In which I lire, writes an Indian girl In the Ited Man. Is divided Into four mala sections namely, Yellow Hill, Soco. Big Cove and Dlrdfown. The Indians living In one of these sections will challenge those living In another to a game of ball. They choose their players and agree upon the time and place for playing the game. It Is generally played in on open field far different from the well graded field upon which tho game of football Is played. The evening before the game the Indians, the women Included. ho!d a dance In their respective sections of the country. These dances are held In the open air, usually near some small stream. The women do the singing while the men dance. In their songs they make all kinds of remarks about those of the opposing side. These dances continue all night long. From tho time of the dances until after the game the players are not allowed to eat any food. The following day the people from the different sections gather at the appointed place to witness the game. They either sit or stand around the edge of the fleN! The ball players each have two sticks similar to those used in tho game of lacrosse, only smaller. The hall is tossed up in the center of the field, and the game begins. The object Is to get It nround two poles placed at each end of the field a certain number of times. They cannot pick up the ball In their hands. The players who succeed In getting the ball around tho poles at the end of the field the greatest number of times win the game.

The Crested Hoactzin When Hatched Has Four Legs. The crested hoactzin of British Guiana is the only survivor of a certain race of birds most of which are nowknown or.!y as fossils. The hoactzin Inhabits the most hided forests of South America, and its survival t.eyoQl its '"cngeuers is doubrl-s.s owing to its retiring habits and to the fact that it feed- on wild arum leave?, which give its flesh a most offensive flavor, rendering it unfit fr fi-ed. The chief peculiarity of the hoactzin consist in the fact that when it is batched It possesses four well developed legs. The youaj birds leave then-' and climb about like iniik.-ys ever the adjoin. limbs and inok more IlUe tree toad than bird-.
