EARLY Barcalns with the Indians.

The disposition to cheat and defraud the
Indians has been much exaggerated, at
least as regards the English settlers. The
early Spanish invaders made no pretense
of buying one foot of land from the In
dams, whereas the English often went
tn -ough the form of purchase, and very
commonly cut in practice the reality. The
Pilgrims, when in great distress, at the very
beginning, took baskets of corn from an In
dian grave, and paid for them afterward,
The year after the Massachusetts colony
was founded, the court decreed 1t Is
ordered that Josias Plastowe shall tor
stealing four baskets of corn from he In
dians) return them eight baskets again, be
fined five pounds, and hereafter called by
the name of Josas, and not Mr., as formerly
he used to be-" As mere mater OF
policy, it was the general DISPOSE
ton of the English settlers, to OBJ
tain lands by honest sale;
indeed, Governor Josiah Winslow, of Ply
mouth, declared, in reference to King
Philips War, that "before these present
troubles broke out the English did not
possess one foot Of land in this colony but
what was fairly obtained by honest purr-
chase of the Indian proprietors.. ms POI,
lev was quite general. Captain West IN
1910 bought the site of what is now Rich.
mond, Virginia, for some copper. The Dutch
Governor Minuit bought theisland of Man
haitian in 1926 for sixty gilders. LORD Baiti-
more's company purchased land for cloth
tools and trinkets the Swedes obtained the
site of Christiana fora kettle: Roger, vii,
liams bought the island OF Rhode Island
for forty fathom of white beads.and New Hav
en- was sold to the whites in 1893 for twelve
coats Of Eugli,h cloth, twelve alchemy
spoons, twelve noes, t"eNe
hatchets, twelve porringers, twenty-iour
knives, and twenty-four cases OF French
knives and spoons" Many other such pur-
poses will be found recorded by DR.. Ellis.
And though the price paid might often
seem ridicnlously small, yet we must re-
member that knife or Ratchet is really
worth more 10 an Indian than many square
miles of wild land; while even the beads
we're a substitute for wampum, or
wompum, which was their, circulating
medium in dealing with each other and
with the whites, and was worth in 1860 hye
shillings a fathom.-[T. W. IIigginson, in

The rumor is current in railroad circles
and there seems TO be good reason for &C.
cepting it as correct, that an alliance often
sive and defensive has been consummated
between the Texas and st. Louis and the
Gulf. Colorado and Santa Fe railroads, by
which each road will be enabled 10 carry lis
business into the cities on the line of the
other. Not a great while ago an order was
ssued by the Gould line, the very evident
purpose Of which was 70 freeze ont the
Gum, Colorado and Santa Fe or force il TO
come into the Southwestern combination.
The checks and coupons OF the road were
outhwed by the combination, the effect be-
ing TO virtually isolate the road, and give
il an outlet 20 the North or East. The in
terdicted road, however, instead OF weaken
ing CT suing for terms, has maintained
very stiff attitude, and looks longingly
northward TO where its Moses in the shape
of the Texas and st. Louis Narrow-gauge
is laying the rail by which the Gould road

weeks the last links will be completed, and
the Texas and st. Louis will have an I'M
broken line from Cairo. 200 miles, into the
heart of the Lone Star state. This road in
tersects the Gulf, Colorado and Santa Fe at
McGregor. Tex, and, If reports are true, ar
rangements will be made for an Interchange
of business at that point. The difference
in gauges will, Of course, necessitate the
changing Of trunks on all through business,
and by this plan the Texas and st. Louis

Five Points of Beauty.

One of the largest fortunes ever realized
in America was made by the owner OF an
oldfashioned climping. pan which a lady
had patented in Washington. The woman
who can invent material which will close

millions awaiting her. Nature generally
understands what is best when she gives a
brunette black hair and enliyens a very
white skin with red locks, but in foreheads
she really does seem to make mistakes, and

When the hair is combed straight back
from the face and CLOVIS in point on the
