THE GAY HEAD INDIANS.
Brought Into Notice by the Wreck of
the Columbus.

NAC SolAhOuSs
Ahe Gay Head Indians inhabited the
recently incorporated Town of Gay Heat
ON the westerly end of the County oil
Dukes, which embraces the whole ofthe
island of Martha's Vineyard. This In
dian town has an area of about 2 400
acres, which is divided into three PENN
sulas, Nashaquitsa, Squipnocket and Gay
Head. This town is nearly severed
from the rest of the island by Menem-
sha pond. At the present time there
are about 200 Indians at Gay HeaC
and unlike many other remnants
of Indian tribes in the Commonwealth,
they have for few years been gra dual
ly increasing in numbers. There are
about fifty families, and the pei pie here
have been marked through series oil
years for seeing more profitable sources
Of income tn n their Isolated situation
naturally afforded, and some of them
have achieved some distinction as eff.
cient masters of vessels. The morals.
education and marked indications oil
civilized advancement among them are
SO striking that they attract attention
among those who chance to visit their
sequestered island home.
If there is spot in all New England
where recluse might wish to find per-
petual repose, free from the troubles
and anxieties of life, Giy Head is the
place, and yet the Gay Headers are quite
jealous of the influence and approaches
of foreigners, having had good deal of
trouble with those who have married
some of their daughters and settleI
among them.
Formerly any member of this tribe at
Gay Head could take up, fence in and
improve as much of the land as he
please J, and when inclosed it became
his own. 1t might very naturally be in
ferred that such state of things would
engender many disputes and quarrels,
but such was not the case. Such a
state of things was kind OF Emporium
in imperio," not conducted by any code
of laws except bone and muscle of those
taking up the land. The Gay Head In
dams are a mixture of the red, white
and black races, and there is too, some
Southern blood among them, and also
Portuguese and Dutch; for listen, here
are some of the names among them, to-
wit: John Randolph, Madison, Corsa
Sylvia and Vanderhoop. Through the
intermarrying and the coming in of for
eigners it has almost pushed out the
purely Indian names. They are, On the
whoie, moral, frugal, industrious and
temperate people, and are quite equal
in these respects to white people, with
similar neutrality-suspicious.

PLUCKY INDIAN WOMEN.
A frightened Chinaman and Some
Scared Redskins.

Scared Redskins.
Every spring some rowing band of Flat

annual hunt, visit the different towns oil

place several days 10 sell robes and skins,

sell from 81 to $40 each, and the market
IS never over-supplied, each Flathead
realizes handsome sum for his seasons

he ambitious TO be conside. ed
wealthy. Immediately upon
supplying himself with ammunition, the
buck enters dry goods store to spend
the remainder of his money for red
striped cali and yellow-barred blank
cts for himself and s9uaw.
The sQuaws are not to be trifled with
They do not hesitate to defend them
for the assistance of the bucks; but even
here where they are so we'll known, very
few persons ever imagined that q sQuaw
dared assume the aggressive toward her
leso lord, until n eeent occurrence
proved that such thing was possible.
AS small lumber of Flatheads were
riding 10 the pricipal street, one Of the
sQuaws became incensed at some re-
mark her buck male, and urging
her cayuSe along side of his, she
beat him numerically across the head
and face with the butt end of her whip.
! He tried TO catch her arm, but failing,
sprang to the ground and retrea ed down
the street at rapid walk. He was next
seen an hour afterward. The light OF
proud manhood had vanished from his
eye. and his face was so bruised and
swollen that one could scarcely recog-
nize him.
About a dozen Cinnamon were com
ing down the street in body when a
small party OF these Indians was in tow n
and as they were passing by an auction
store in front Of which two bucks were
standing, one of the bucks grabbed q
Chlnaman by the queue and, draw

near compelled the Indian to release

had deserted him at the rst alarm, and
quickly battered up the street TO China

Presently word was passed to the
bucks TO fly for their lives, piece of adj
vice they promptly followed by mount

The Second EmnireS

Archibald Forbes writes in English

vague flavor of ominousness at which

humiliat ng problems of modern times
how long this nasty, gaudy caricature of

1t is a poor consolation for the worlds
long self delusion that when the wind
Gag was once resolutely pricked it should
have collapsed with such headlong swift
