An Indian Mother.

Among the five steamboat loads ofhos.
tile Indians brought down from Fort
Keogh, were perhaps 800 children of vari-
Gus ages, and the manner in which the
Indian mother managed her family Of
little ones, attracted attention: and in the
embarkment and on the trip down, not
child was punished, and still they were
perfectly obedlent, and when spoken to
by either parent, were quick to obey, and
the little sick papoose was watched over
with the greatest attention BY both father
and mother. It occurred to several that
the Christian pale-face mother and father
might learn useful lesson from these
wild, untutored people, for the govern
ment Of their own families by kindness.

The Finances.

WASHINGTON, D. c., June 16.-It is
not thought probable from intima-
tions obtained at the treasury depart
ment, based on present indications, that
there will be any recommendation made
to the next. Congress looking to..refunding.
It is the opinion of those high in au-
thority that the conversion of higher rate
bonds under the present system into
bonds bearing lower rate of interest, is
far more advantageous to the business in
terests than the agitation of the question
by Congress, while the intention of the
Secretary of the Treasury is to keep the
sinking fund well supplied. It is not
probable that much will be done in the
purchase of bonds for that fund until the
five per cents, to which option of continue
ance or redemption has already been ex-
tended, are disposed of. Although there
has been no report received as to the
number and amount of coupon fve's re-
ceived for continuance at the London
agency, it is understood that quite large
amount of such bonds have been pre-
sented. The secretary is Of the opinion
that nearly, if not quite, all of the $118,-
100000 coupon fve's will be received for
continuance before the time fixed for
their presentation has elapsed, namely,
July LIST. The secretary was asked to-
day if there was any probability of his
purchasing four per cents. of 1907 for
the sinking fund in preference to redeem
ing the converted three and a-half per
cents. He responded that this was a
a question which he had not yet con-
sidered. It is thought in some quarters
that providing four's could be purchased
in open market at reasonable figures, it
would begood policy to purchase them in
preference to redeeming the three and a
half per cents.

A Talk with Dalrynaple.

The TRIBUNE recently met Oliver Dali
ryple, the bonanza farmer of Dakota, on
his way from ST. Paul to his broad acres
in the Red River valley. Mr.. Dalrymple
stated that he has $500 acres of wheat
and 1900 acres Of other grains now grow
ing, and that upon the whole the outlook
for good crop is equal if not better than
preceding years. lie expects to com
mence harvesting about the 4th Of August,
and will add another season 5000 acres to
his cultivated land and erect the neces.
sary additional buildings. Wages during
harvest he expects to be about the same
as last season and will himself pay $40 a
month until harvest, $1.75 day during
forty days OF harvest and $50 a month dur
ing the remainder of the season. Atthcse
prices he expects to engage 800 men. In
regard to the rumor that settlers were To-
eating at his farm and trying to Jump
claims, Mr.. Dal1ymple stated that there
was no truth in the assertion and said
There is too much good and new land in
Dakota Territory that can be had for Its
cultivation, for any one to attempt any
such tactics as that. We builded better
than we knew when we came to this coun.
try, and the growth and prosperity already
beyond our anticipations, will be increased
during the coming five years to an extent
of which we can now little dream"

went into camp ten miles above. The
Indians being hungry and havi ing no ra-
taons took their war clubs and killed 4
number of their dogs, which after singelng
off the hair, were roasted and eaten, en-
TRAILS and all. The officers of the boat re-
dased 10 partake of the repast, although
lie Indians seemed,to relish the meal and
considered it very choice banquet.
They preferred eating roast dog to killing
nne of their seventy-six short horn cattle
shat they had on board the Sherman.
On the steamers Helena and Eclipse dnr.
ing the second night out, child died

Hsrmed, and the remains buried at a

The investigation of the Tax office

still greater steals have taken place in
the Shcriifs office. These tits said will run

the officials. One of the members of the

charge of the investigation of the Tax
office thefts, in speaking of these latter
discoveries, said, "Why," II say
candidly these matters are insignificant
and triiing compared with something
else we are getting down TO. Those
charges so far made public involve only
the clerks and minor employees of the
department This thing we are now
working on involves higher officials
The things already spoken about involve

Certain rascals are under indictment in

have stepped between the law and the
criminals, and it is quite probable that
by so doing they have prevented the
conviction of the rascals. A bolder

not the slightest probability that the

WHAT A KISS Is.

The amatory editor of the Phila-
delphia Times has written an article on
"The Right Time to Kiss" in which he
gives a definition of OSCILLATION which we
fancy it would be difficult to surpass 1t
is as follows:
"A kiss is the visible sign and token of an
inner sentiment which no words can express
The eyes and the tongue do II good deal of
appreciable work in love-making, but the
meeting of the lips is the sign and seal, the
chrism, so to speak which transforms the
earthly into the divine. Love without a kiss
would be like a harp without the hand, the
rainbow without its hue; the brook without
its babble; the landscape without its colors;
the tea rose-sweetest flower for scent that
blows-without its odor the boreais with
out its variations: poetry without rythm;
spring without sunlight; garden without TO-
liage or marriage without love. The young
woman whose ideals teach her to rccoil from
kiss cheats the lover of the joys of loving
and does not deserve the devotion of a manly
heart. She may live up to the dining room
dado and the sidcboard bric-a-brac, but she
will never prove Il congenial wife, and our
correspondent will save his heart, strings
many Il future wrench by leaving her to her
dadO and -brac"
