At l o. clock, P. NJ, we went aboard
the new steam propeller Niagara. to
make the rounds of the lake. We found
in Captain Avery very obliging gen.
tleman. 1t was the sentiment OF our
party that "Long may he paddle his
own boat"
According to- programme, we were to
stop at Tahoe City and have few
hours sport catching
sPECKLED BEAUTIES,
for which that portion of the lake has
become justly celebrated. Armed with
lines two hundred feet long, we rowed
out mile or more from shore. With
almost breathless silence we expected
every moment when it would become
our pleasure to haul in a seven
FOUNDER. Minutes soon run into hours
and no fish. Let our line out full
length, hauled it in hundred feet or
so, and not a nibble. Quoted Shake
speare and reoited passages from the
Bible, and yet it didn'nt have the de-
sired effect. We went for trout, but
sea lion, or a dead cat would have been
acceptable. The sickly-looking min
nows that we had dragged for miles
through the pure waters of the lake
seemed to sympathize with u.s.. We
went ashore and asked the gentleman
of whom we had our boat if he would
state, under oath, that to his own per-
sonal knowledge he had ever known of
trout being caught from that lake.
He solemnly said yes. We believed
him, and came away with the impress
sion that it was very good, place to
fish. Yes. very good.
Somewhat fatigued, we retired to the
shades of the

world. Sitting like gem in the bosom
of the Sierra Nevada mountains, it af-

extending far up on the sides of the

Clexeland has suspended two scholars

| Cleveland has suspended two scholars
on account Of general ~cussedness. He
| superintends the school and all import
| ant details of its management are I'M
der his own supervision, while the wor-
thy sisters, one of whom, Miss Lee,
has been engaged in mission work
among the Sioux for thirteen years, and
has not visited her eastern home for
eight years, and Miss Pendleton, who
has had three years experience, teach
the young Indian idea how to shoot,
and make themselves generally useful
in visiting the sick, etc. The inordi-
nate passion for stealing which pos
| sesses every Indian, is 4 sore trial to
| the teachers, who frequently lose small
articles of greater or less value, and
must pay for their return or never re-
cover them, while the thief will attend
school regularly and deny being guilty
in the most stolid manner.
Very few full-blooded Indians attend
church and very few have been bap-
tized. Spotted Tail, although he loud
ly proclaims his desire for churches and
schools for his people, does not set them
a shining example, as he should, by at
tending regularly himself. In fact he
has never yet visited the church of his
own accord, but on a few occasions,
when the rector has sent a special invi-
tation, the smart old chieftaiu has
deigned to occupy d pew in the chapel.
In the past three years hr. Cleveland
has baptized lis women and children.
The adults are mostly the Indian wives
of white men, and the children mostly
half-breeds.
So soon as the Agency shall be per-
manently located, it is proposed to es-
tablish branch missions at each of the
permanent Indian camps. The reason
for this is that the Indians will pay no
attention to religion or education when
their camp is a mile or more from the
school house, and by locating branches
in the large permanent camps it is eX-
pected that the work of regenerating
the Indians will he made easier and
more successful.
Mr.. Cleveland has been among the
Sioux for five years; speaks and writes
the Dakota dialect with ease and fluen-
cy; has made a thorough study of their
habits and characteristics. and it is his
opinion that they will make very slow
work in gathering ''book learning, y
while he is certain that the industrial
education of these idle and ignorant
red men IS far more essential and much
easier to accomplish.
In closing this somewhat lengthy ar
ticle the writer cannot forbear mention
ing the hospitable II in which he
was treated at Spotted Tail. Every
person met there appeared anxious to
do him service, and he herewith ten
ders his heartfelt thanks to Mr.. and
Mrs. Cleveland, Mr.. John Cunningham
and DR.. j. l.. Mills, for courtesles ten
dered and accepted.
