CORY O'LANIs ON INDIANA.

Indian summer Is very pleasar
style of weather.
1 wish the Indians had tried their
hands at the rest of the seasons, and
given us this sort of weather all the year
round.
Not being in the coal business, could
stand it.
| The Indians are entitled to general
gratitude for inventing this second edi-
ton OF summer, short as ii is.
| Their meteorological ideas were good,
so far as they went--about ten days. But
it must be considered that their educar
tional advantages were limited.
They had no public schools. with pret-
! ty female teachers and an economical
| Board of Education.
The pastimes were hunting the wild
deer and following the roe, and fighting
each other. Scalping people was one Of
the most pleasing diversions
ScaIping is quite an interesting opera
ton, except to the party operated upon.
1t consists of taking all the hair off tho
top of mans head and the skin with
it.
Bald-headed Americans are sometimes
supposed to be descendants OF the origi-
nal settlers, who were settled by the In
dians.
There were Indians at one time on
Long Island. Fortunately they had re-
tired to their. happy hunting grounds
before came here.
hemisphere.
The noble race has, however, much
degenerated.
On account of bad whisky.
/ don't know what the Indians ever
did for the cigar business, but the only
public interest evineed in the red man
il by the cigar store men, who are erect
ing wooden monuments to the Indians
all over the city.
Thus the memory of the Indian is pre-
served in his native wood
People who have studied the abort
gines in their native woods, say they
