ORIGIN OF MosQUIToEs.-Th Red River In
dams have a legend respecting the origin of
mosquitoes They say that once upon time
there was famine and the Indians could get no
game. Hundreds had died from hunger, and
deso'ation filled their country. All kinds of
offerings were made to the Great Spirit without
avail, till one day two hunters came upon a
white wolverine, very rare animal. Upon
shooting the white wolverine, an old woman
sprang out of the skin, and saving she was a
Mantle" promised to 90 and live with the In
dams, promising them plenty Of game as long as
they treated her well and gave her the first choice
OF all the game that should be brought 10. The
two Indians assented TO this, and took the old
woman home with them which event was i'm.
mediatey succeeded by an abundance of game.
When the sharpness Of the famine had passed.
the Indians became dainty in their appetites
aud complained of the manner in which the old
woman took to herself all the choice bits; and
this feeling became so intense that, notwith-
standing her warnings that ii they violated
their promise terrible calamity would come
upon the Indians, they one day killed her as she
seized upon her share OF q fat reindeer which
the hunters had brought in. Great cOnsterna-
ton immediately struck the witnesses of the
deed, and the Indians, to escape the predicted
calamity, boldly struck their tents and moved
away to great distance. Time passed on
without any catastrophe occurring and game
becoming even more plentiful the Indians
again began TO laugh at their being
deceived by the old woman. Finally a
hunting party, on a long chase Of reindeer,
which had led them back TO the spot where the
old woman was killed, came upon her skeleton,
aud one OF them, IN derision kicked the skull
with bis foot In an instant a small, spiral.like
body arose from the eyes and ears of the skull,
which proved to be insects. They attacked the
hunters with great fury, and drove them to the
river tor protection. The skull continued to
pour out its little stream, and the air became
full OF avengers of tue old woman's death. The
! hunters, upon returning to camp, found all the
Indians suffering terribly from the plague, and
ever since that time the red men have been pun
ished by the mosquitoes for their wickedness to
| their presever, the Manito Minneapolis Tri.
