There is unanimous opposition to a change in the ranks of the delegates, and that unanimity extends to the people in the council. All of the five tribes' were represented except the Seminoles. The Osage and I'onca delegations were admitted to the council with deliberate privileges only.

House Wrecked and Two Women A Cliagka, Who Married a White Woman, Elopes With a ISnxora Squaw. Yaxktox, S. Feb.

20. Mrs. Chas-ka, nee Cora Flower, who was married at Cheyenne City agency three years ago to a Santee Sioux, named Chaska, or Samuel Campbell, is now living apart from him in a small town in Southern Nebraska. Several months ago Chaska and his family went to reside on the Santec reservation, a short distance up the river from Yankton, that they might enjoy the fruits of Chaska's Indianhood. Chaska is a Santee Indian, and in company with his children receives a government subsidy every three months.

After two months of life on the reservation Chaska suddenly disappeared, and it was discovered that he had eloped with a young and buxom squaw. Mrs. Chaska, after waiting for return for weeks, left the reservation with her half-breed children, vowing she would never live with Chaska again. Two weeks after she left Chaska returned to the agency, and is now living there with the woman who accompanied him in the'clopement. The W.
