The Way an Indian Girl Puts IT.

interview with Miss La Flesche, of the
Omaha Tribe.
"We never hear but one side.
We have no newspapers to tell our
story. / tell you the soldiers do
things with the prisoners or the
dead as horrible as any Indian
could think of. Then your people
are almost always the aggressors.
pll tell you case / know of. Two
young white men met an Indian
with O basket of potatoes. One of
them said he would like to have it
to say when he went home that he
had shot an Indian. The other
dared him to shoot this one. He
drew revolver and shot him. The
Indian was an Omaha. Oh, L tell
you, if he had been a Sioux or o
Cheyenne you would have heard
from it. But we knew we would
gain nothing, and SO nothing was
done.p
"Well, what do you propose to
do?u
I'll propose that you white peo-
pie treat US on platform of plain
honesty, and lei us be citizens.
We are now farmers and are doing
well. We want to stay here, and
want assurance that we can live
like other farmers. We have de-
posed the c!iief5, and want u lie
just IKE any other citizens of the
State" The young lady is

The satins for millinery are the soft qualiyes

muslin edged with lace trims some of the finest
French chips. The brm has wide shirred
binding of the India muslin that shows at
least an inch in breadth both inside aud out,

top OF the crown has a soft, crmDed white
ostrich plume held by some veined leaves OF
dark green velvet. The strings Of double In

fastened under the chin. In direct contrast to
this Is the dress bonnet OF black Spanish laoo

A TOXIC correspondent says the proposed
treaty between this government and Japan
will never be carried out, because it is op-
posed to British interests, and one of its
articles provides that the treaty shall only 60
into effect when similar treaties with all other
powers shall be concluded. OF course Eng
land will not consent to similar treaty.
The correspondent says: SIT is impossible
to conceive of more wretched non-sequitur.
1t makes the treaty bundle of waste paper.
The only valuable result of the arrangement
would have been for America to lead the
way with an original treaty, the ratification
of which would compel all the other powers
to follow suit. They could not have avoided
it. and America would have taken the front
stand in every kind of influence and moral
power here. Now the opportunity is wasted.
OF course the European governments, with
England at their head, will never conclude
such treaty so long as they can avoid it,
1t is believed by England to be Numerically
adverse to British commercial interests. To
Americans in japan it seems extraordinary
that the State Department should not have
been sensible of the impropriety of allowing
its actions to be regulated by the caprices of
European powers. That is what it amounts
to. The United States says to Japan: we
will pledge ourselves to this treaty il the ma
tions of Europe will allow us to abide by It,
1t is needless to say that the Japanese rulers
are astounded and beWildered."

WASHINGTON specials say that the treas.
ury department is in arrears about one hun
dred millions of dollars in the delivery of the
pc: cents. 1t is behind about four weeks in
printing them. The bureau of engraving and
printing, which now prints the completed
bonds, is wol king night and day, and hope
to be up with the demand in short time.
The full capacity of the bureau is employed,
and under the existing law, no extra force
can be used. The delay is, in large meas
ure, attributable to the printing of such large
quantities Of bonds Of small denominations,
for which there is demand wholly unantici-
pated by the department.

TODAY the Argus will be relieved from its
suspense. 1t will know whether it is the Or
gan of the Democratic party or the Green
back party, or the Peoples movement, or
the Citizens organization, or the license fac
tion, or the party of protest against city team
sters, or the grand combination of which ev-
cry member is a Colonel. 1t will be a great
relief, to the Argus, and to its subscribers,
for that paper will be at liberty to give the
news concerning the contest for the Mayor
atty. Its enforced silence has not been at all
pleasant to bear, and has had an irritating
effect upon its temper; an irritation which
shows itself in amusing petuance. After
plundering the Sunday Times the other day
of every item of news. save one, which that
enterprisiDg paper contained, it abused the
Times for publishing the only bit of inteli-
gence, something about the Mayorship,
which the argus did not dare to appropriate.
1t has even omitted to indulge in gossip con-
corning the weather, subject usually con-
sidered out Of politics, for fear an expression
Of opinion would embarrass Colonel George
Walker. The Colonel hopes to get the sup
port of the believers in soft weather as well
as of those In hard weather. 80 yes" he
is reported as saying on recent occasion,
"Jane is fine month, but there is a great
deal to be said for February. Though for
that matter some strong arguments can be
brought forward in favor of June. l see no
objections to coalition. What we want is
weather. To get that we must carry the
city. 1t is time enough then to discuss what
kind we will have. The great object to be
achieved now is to elect me clerk of the
weather"

INSURANCE.
THE
ADVANT AGE
OF HAVING A
Maine NOn-fOr. eiture Law Policy
IN THE
Union Mutual Life Ins. Co,
OF MAINE.

In 1864 and 1865 Capt Charles L Gardiner Of Chel-
sea, Mass, insured in the Union Mutual Life Insur-
ance Company of Maine, for $4,000. On two ordinary
Life Policies, payable at death provided the prem
iums were paid annually, according to the terms of
the contract.
On the I'd day of july 1871 Capt. Gardiner had his
policies changed to the form now used by the Com
pany, which gives the benefit of the Maine Non-for-
feituIe Law.
On the 18th day Of September, 1871 he sailed from
Boston as master of the good ship "Iceland'' on a
voyage to Calcutta. The ship and all board were
lost at sea. The premiums due July 27, 1877, and
August 8, 1877, not paid, and by the terms of
the original policies this would have worked a for
feiture of the entire insurance; but under the
policies which hid been gratuteusy offered by the
company, the insurance would have been continued
in force more than three years, or until November,
1880, notwithstanding the non-payment of the prem
iums due in 1877 and the fact of the death being es
tabshed to the satisfaction of the company, the full
amount of the policies was pail on the 29th day
October, s7s.
