suicide Of Pascal Smith.

A cable dispatch Of Nov. Oath from
Paris, France, reads as follows: The body of
Pascal Smith, a millionaire merchant, of st.
Paul, Mimi, has been found off Marseilles'
coast He arrived at Marseilles with his wife
and son, the 10Th inst, and next evening he
was missed, and is supposed to have drowned
himself" The sad death of Mr.. Smith will not
greatly surprise those who were aware of his
mental and physical condition. From having
been an active,s elf-relianten terprising man of
business, such az he was through most of his
life, he had within a few years become broken
in both bodily and mental health, and was
when he left here, a few months ago, in such
condition that his friends had little hope of
his rec overy. Something over year ago he
was induced to place his affairs in hape to
permit Of his wholly retiring from business
and, under care of his wife. he was taken
away for rest, travel and medical treatment.
The symptoms of mental weakness and de-
preston shown in his case before he left home
rendered it probable that acute melancholy
was developed, leading to his suicide Mrs.
Smith and their married son arc the only sur
Nving members of the family Two daugh.
tiers, grown to womanhood, have died since
the family removed to St Paul. Mr. Smith
was probably not millionaire,i in the currency
OF this country, put was wealthy enough to be
counted millionaire in France. During
their residence here Mr.. and Mrs. Smith were
among the foremost il support of the First NJ.
E. church and in the promotion of charitabl
institutions.

Flour Blockade.

Owing to the freight blockade on the
trunk lines Of railroad many of the -four
ing mills Of Minneapolis have been compelled
to suspend operating, it being impossible to
get cars to ship their products. In the mean
time the elevators at Minneapolis and along
the lines Of railroads in the interior are full to
overfowing, while deliveries by farmers are
unusually large In this emergency the NIL
ler's Association has commenced selling wheat
in the Chicago market 500, 900 bushels having
been sold in the past few days. It is under
TODD this course will be continued until the
jam upon the elevators is relieved either by
the operation Of the mills or falling off in de-
iveries. Speaking Of this action, q leading
miller is reported as saying: ut is apparent
that the crop has been largely underestimate
ed, as in many localities deliveries are already
in excess Of the estimated crop and still it
pours in upon them"

Geo. 2. Knowls, of Racine, Wis, won
from Edwin Childs, of Dakota, one sec
ton Of good farm land, $40 acres. The
betwas IS, 600 against certain described
section that New York State would give

ment OF the wager by whipping him
soundly.

city named was Washington, where there
IS no vote for President at all. The vic

MINNESOTA INDIANS.
Their Condition. Changes Recommends
by theIndian Commissioners.

VneHr COnd1t1on--C Changes Recommended
by the.Indian Commissioner.
The commissioner OF Indian affairs, in his
annual report, has The following to say rela-
tive to the Chippewa Indians residing in
Minnesota:
"The 5000 Indians at White Earth and
Red Lake are practically self-supporting,
having harvested this year 10000 bushels of
wheat, $4,000 bushels Of corn, and %, 900
bushels of potatoes. Nearly all at White
Earth wear citizens dress, live in houses,
send their children to school, attend church
on the Sabbath, and lead quiet, industri-
GUS, agricultural life. Many have surround
ed themselves with the comforts of civilize
life, and casual observer would notice but
little difference between them and the white
farming communities Of the frontier.
"For many years the Red Lake Indians
have managed to take care Of themselves,
experimenting the fish and small game of
the reserve with moderate but never failing
crops of corn and some potatoes. For sew
eral years past their garden patches have
been enlarged each year; some property, in
the way of stock cattle and implements, has
been accumulated; wheat raising has been
successfully introduced; one after another
built by their own hands; and, with very
small expenditures of money, are slowly and
steadily advancing to that degree of civili-
cation which the White Earth Indians
reached in few years, by means of liberal
appropriations from Congress and generous
contributions from missionary societies.
''The only hope for the Pillager Chippewas
at Leech Lake lies in their removal to White
Earth; and through such removal q few years
ago would have met with determined OPPOSE
ton, it is believed that many are now begin
ming to realize the hopeiessness Of the situa-
ton at Leech Lake, and the advantages
which the White Earth Reservation offers.
cat White Oak Point and vicinity, and at
Mile Lac and Snake River are TIC, 1926, and
$50 Chippewas respectively. The White Oak
Point Chippewas have q barren, worthless
reserve on which they cannot live. The
Mile Laos are on fine tract of land, which
can never be their own, their only title to it
being the privilege of occupancy during
good behavior, and which ia coveted and
tresspassed on by the whites. The
branch Of the Mile Laos at Snake river are
on small tracts of land purchased by them,
at government rates, in the neighborhood of
Brunswick, Mimi, near the Northern Pacific
railroad. All of these Indians are in close
contact with whites, have free access to
liquor. and are grating on to barbarism all
the degradation of which civilization is ca
pable. It becomes the imperative duty of
the government to give these Indians new
home where they will be out of the way of
the whites, and where they will have an op-
portunity for and encouragement in better
mode of living. Fortunately there is no
question az to the place to which they should
be removed, the White Earth reservation be-
ing ample, both in size and resources, to &C.
