1,UOO miles elong the river or the same name
The halfbreeds' lands are divided into long,
narrow strips, extending an immense distance
back from the Saskatchewan This is to
give each settler river frontage, a privilege
which they are ready to fKhtfor. There are
about "a, 900 Indians scattered through the
northwest, whom Riel hoped TO win over to
bis cause
The map herewith of that portion Of British
America north of Montana, Dakota and Min
nesota shows the Saskatchewan country in
the northwest corner. From the Canadian
Pacific railway at Swift Current a trail Is in
dictated by a dotted line to Prince Albert.
This is the route the Canadian troops are ex-
pected to take, the distance being about $50
miles. Battleford, Carlton and Prince
Albert are situated on the north Saskatche-
wan river, and here the half-breeds have
settled, their farms extending in long narrow
strips back from the river on both sides, the
houses being in a line along the river
bank. The government has resurveyed the
country, laying it out into sections one
quarter of a mile square, and insist on ~
half -breeds giving up their old homes and
narrow strips of land for square UniLl
proved sections, this Riel and his followers
refuse to do; hence the revolt.
The first fight was at Duck Lake, IL miles
east of Carlton. 1t was with the mounted po.
hcemen and loyal citizens Soldiers were
forwarded by the Canadian Pacific railway
to Qu'Appelle. At that point they left the
railway and marched overland northwest.
Another body of troops under Gen. Middle
ton left the railway at Swift Current and
took the westerly route north. From Qu'ApS
pelle TO Prince Albert the distance is $50
miles. EDWARD MAcQUEEN.

special Correspondence.l


ST. PAUL, Mimi, April 11.-Louis Riel, the
leader of the present revolt which is giving
the Canadian authorities so much trouble
is native Of Manitoba, having been born
there Al years ago, under the old Hudson
Bay regime. He Is of French ancestry, but
has some Indian blood in his veins. He
is well educated, bold and insinuating
In his manners, and just the man to
lead the half breeds When the Hudson
Bay company sold the greater part of their
lands TO the Canadian government in 1869.
Riel commanded the half-breed insurrection
against the new authorities and held Fort
Garry, near Winnipeg, for IL months He
established a provisional government, seized
all the property at the fort, and he and
his associates in the movement became pos
Sessed Of hundreds of thousands of dollars
worth Of property. A number of loyal civ
ilians attempted to resist Riel, but they were
put down, and one Thomas Scott was shot
When Col. Wolseley, now Gen. Lord Wolse-
ley, and the Canadian militia, to the number
Of about 1000, appeared in front of Fort
Garry, Rel fled and the provisional govern
ment was dissolved. At that time some con-
cessions were made to the half-breeds Of Man
itoba, each of them getting 240 acres of land.
This satisfied the half breeds of that province.
The present outbreak is owing to the fact
that the half breeds of the remaining por-
tions of the northwest were not similarly
treated What Riel now wants is to get for
the other half-breeds what the instruction Of
1869 got for the people of Fort Garry

Riel's father before him was rebel be
led an outbreak against the Hudson Bay
company before that association sold its
lands to the Canadian government. This
little private instruction enriched the elder
Riel and made him one of the small great
men of his locality. The spirit of revolt is,
therefore in the blood of Louis Riel. His
father was ambitious to make his son
gentleman and to school him in all the ways
of the white mans culture. The youth was
a strong, bold, black eyed boy, with the
mixed barbaric and French natures stirring
N his lawless. restless soul. He was sent to
a Canadian college. He learned easily the
lessons set him, but the discipline of the good
fathers who were his teachers made no inn
preston on him. His untamed nature burst
all restraints. He repealed the advances OF
his schoolmates and shrank from human
conpanionship like q wild creature
of the woods AT length by some
chance fellow student of refined, studious
disposition was thrown with Louis Riel some
what. He st once gained marvellous infiu-
ence over the half breed youth. Louis formed
@ strange and strong attachment to the gentle
comrade of white blood. He began to change,
to heed his tasks and the admonitions OF his
teachers. His manners grew milder, he be-
gan to be courteous and less reserved to those
around him. The wild half-breed son of Riel
the rebel gave promise of becoming gentle
man.
In weeks time all was changed. The
gentle white schoolmate fell i'll one day. The
ailnent developed into smallpox, and he was
removed to hospital. Young Riel passion
ately refused to remain at his lessons. He
ran away from college and followed the
schoolmate to his hospital cot-bed He
watched his friend with dog-like devotion,
devotion. alas! that was all in vain. The
young man died of the plague.
From the day of his death Louis Riel was
little seen in towns and cities. He fed to
his woods, up in the great Manitoba country.
All the wildness in him broke out again.
From that time ON he dwelt among half
breeds and Indians, the boldest, strongest,
cruelest barbarian of them all. When civil
cation next heard his name it was as the
leader Of the
OUTBREAK OF 1869.
A word on that viii serve to explain the
present one. The Hudson Bay company had
had fur-trading posts in the region in quest
ton for century prior to 1869. They had ac-
Guired large possessions. When they trans
ferred their lands and property to the
Canadian government, the region was al
ready settled by a numerous population OF
French and Scotch half-breeds. Without
consulting them, the dominion sent survey
ors and parcelled off their lands in blocks

Margaret Fuller, as Julia Ward Howe de-
picts her, was a child of too much learning.
At Is such was her precocity, mental and
physical, that she passed for a much older
person, and had recognized place III society.
Such recollections Of Margaret Fuller before
she was Is present her as not handsome, not
even pretty. IN 1926 she read Sismondi,
acquired Greek and italian, working
steadily, with music thrown in, from
in the morning until IL at night.
A year later she had read Mime. de
Stael, Epicetus, Milton, Racine, and the Cas-
lillian ballads In 1927 she is occupied with
the italian poets, and she undertakes q course
of metaphysical studies. Was Margaret a
pleasant young person to have met at about
this period of her maidenhOod? We are
afraid she was not. She had not seen the real
world, and from her imagination had created
some impossible ideal and resented the not
finding Of it. The biographer of her early
days, Mr.. Clarke, acknowledges that she
was naughty and SupercilliOus to the multi
tude, though to the chosen few she was
the embodiment of tender and true regard"
Her wonderful power of study is shown
when the statement is made on good au-
thority that, moved by Carlyle's brilliant
exposition of the leading German authors,
i'll three months time, or little more, she
read appreciatively Goethe, Schiller, Tieck,
Korner, Richter and Novalis
