ACCORDING to the London Graphic the Paris
Exhibition medals have not been so highly
valued as was expected, for nearly 1000 bronze
medals remain unclaimed as well as 800 silver
and 90 gold. Several American exhibitors, too
are grumbling over their diplomas, which dis.
play some absurd tranSlations owing to unfaml!-
farity of the commissioners with the American
vernacular. Thus the diploma intended for the
Gardner Gun Company Is granted for 'Fusl
pour la Jardiniere," the Waterbury Button
Company receives its award In the name OF
waterbury, Button & Company" and, worst
of all, the Providence Tool Company becomes

WHY LABFARRs HAIR TURNED WHITE
Among the excited crowd that besleged the
Office of the Helena, Montana. Independent for
news concerning the Ute outbreak there stood
tall, handsome youth OF % years, the strange
whiteneSS Of whose hair became at once mat
ter OF comment. This young man was John
Laefarr, who not long ago hired himself as a
ranchman with Charles d. Hard, three miles
out OF Helena Laefarr was importuned by an
Independent reporter to tell 1.-THE story OF his
gray topknot." He at the age OF nineteen
years, was one OF seven packers who left Fort
Lincoln in 1915 to ride with General Custer
along the Little Big Horn. When the fight
OF that bright but disastrous summer nora
ing opened Laefarr, with his companions,
command. In few moments after the
sound OF the combat reached him a band of
Sioux sprang from the grass within few feet
OF them. Laefarr nooSed rope, placed it in
the mouth OF the nearest horse, and, leaping
upon the animals back lunged his spurs into
the flank. As he Rugged his horse he saw his
six companions go down, one after the other.
One bullet out Of the hundred that followed
him tore through his neck, another cut deep
In his thigh, and fourth killed his horse. The
des perate boy shot an approaching Indian and
ran for belt Of timber half mile distant
BarefOOted, weak ana faint from loss of blood,
lie outran his purSuers and reached the woods,
where he hid for three days. He was at last
found by three friendly Crow Indians and taken
by them to Fort Lincoln, where he told Of the
massacre. 1t was not until he had reached the
fort that he knew Of the change In his hair
which, before his terrible suffering, was as
black as a ravens wing. Laefarr has since been
living at various points on the plains. He does
not like to go over the story OF his wonderful
adventure.
