The YanktOnai's

Lieutenant Colonel Garrick Mallery,
captain First Infantry and acting signal
officer, has published, through the Interior
Department, highly interesting pamph.
let or a calendar of the Dakota Nation,
which 0as copied by Lieutenant Il. T.
Reed, y. his company, from the original
chart in the possession of Lone Dog, an
aged Yanktonai. This calendar begins
about 1900, and marks each successive
year by some symbol, ali of which are
ingenious!y explained or guessed at by the
author, together with much other curious
information about the great Dakota fam
lly. The work shows how usefully and
,reditab]y all army officer may use his
time at a frontier post, and IS worthy of
Colonel Mallery's cultured mind and ex.
tensiYe experience.

lexpostulated with Mrs. Hayes that the
Russian guests had really little concep
ton of what cold water dinner might
be, and would probably misconstrue the
absence of wine. Mr.. Hayes then re-
luctan,ly consented that wine should oe
