ABORFGaNEs IN LINE.
The Indians Parade the Streets Fol-
lowed by Old settlers.

The aborigines were out yesterday in full
uniform and their faces painted as they
were thirty years ago when their yells and
whoops sent terror to the heart of the pio-
neer. They were gotten up in grand style,
with head-dresses of gaudily painted feath-
ers, necklaces of bears teeth and the toe
nails of crows; richly beaded belts and
moccasins; leather pants daubed with paint
and sacques of calico. On their arms they
wore braceleets of silver and small bells
dangled from the bottoms of their pockets
and tinkIed merTily and spas
medically as the ponies logged
along at a crazy gait. Signs of modern i'm
provements could be seen in the costumes,
such as Sugar Cured Hams" and pills

suuaws were dressed in short petticOats uf
coarse material, that just revealed the but
tons of blue soldier pants that encaSed their
lower limbs Their coal-black hair was
smeared with grease and the partings
plainly outlined with Ochre. Their cheeks
were frescoed with red paint and several
of the more stylish wore great brass rings
in their ears and little ornaments in their
hair, while rings of brass encircled their
fingers and bracelets of various kinds of
metal shone on their arms. The shining
eyes of the little pappoose could be seen
peering over the shoulder of its parent, as
it hung in sack made from a blanket
wrapped around the mothers shoulders.
Although their appearance was gay in the
extreme and they were gotten up with an
eye to

POLAR WAVE ORDERED
BY His Majesty BoreaIis--The
Queen is Quite Comfortable.

A GLOBE reporter called late last night
on his majesty the Ice King, and found
him greatly depressed by the heat, but he
assured his visitor that polar wave which
he ordered at II o'clock Yesterday would
arrive within fOrty-eight hours, and so his
majesty looks forward o an early restora-
ton. Her majesty the Queen is in most
excellent health, as also the ladies and gen.
tlemen of the court. When the pOla- wave
arrives the people of this city will have an
opportunity of witnessing grander and more
beautiful sights than ever before. The
palace will have changed its color from
green to gray, and will show off better than
it did before. His majesty was quite con-

UNDER FINE SKIES
The Carnival sports and Novelties
Still Go On.

The sun shone as pleasantly as it ever
did on a spring morning, yesterday, and
the air was as balmy as May, but the winter
carnival program was carried out as had

lures which required solid ice :.

The warm weather brings the pOpu lace
from indoors and streets and palace grounds
are thronged with all classes many of whom
would under the severity of last week
be unable to look upon the beauties of the
palace and the many attractions that are
clustered about it. Thousands visited the
palace grounds yesterday under the fine
sky, and if the air so baimy and enjoyable
made the paths slushy and in many eases
muddy, everybody laughed at the slight
annoyance and did not complain, taking
it as a huge joke on the weather
AS they watched the rapi dly melting snow

A QUESTION THAT HAS BEEN
SETTLED.

The New York Central railroad, repre-.
sented by It's general superintendent, Mr.
Toncey, has taken the same attitude to.
ward the knights OF Labor that Mr.
Hoxie, acting for the Gould system, did
last spring. An assembly Of Knights OF
Labor made demand on the New York
Central for an increase of wages for GER
tain classes Of employees of that road. In
his reply Mr.. Toncey says:
! Until the demand reached me, had no no
ton OF any discomfort In orr ranks. We knew,
however, that the knights OF Labor have been
busy this summer getting our men into their
| order. believe the most OF them belong 10
the order. We have never attempted to con
troll them outside Of working hours. They can
belong to as many societies as they WISH but
when II comes to dealings with us we wish to
meet them as employees, and not as societies or
associations. II the men belonging TO this as
sembly who are In our employ think we are
paying them too little, we shall hear a com
mlttee Of them at any time, and II their re
quests are Just they will be granted. But they
must come as our employees, and not as Knights
OF Labor. Upon that point there Is no argu.
ment to be heard.
The logic of this position cannot be
controverted. Mr.. Hoxle stood on pre-
cisely the same ground last spring when
Martin Irons and others were demanding
that arbitration negotiations be conducted
with committee Of Knights Of Labor in
stead OF lndiv idual employees. Hoxie
was shrewd enough to appreciate his
vantage ground, and he held it, Public
opinion, especially in business circles.
sided with him, and after that the great
strike could have but one outcome. The
same principle is involved in the trouble
threatened on the New York Central
lines. The public has weighed the prin-
ciple carefully, and every time 1t comes
up the railroad managers will have the
moral support of the country at large.
The knights Of Labor cannot afford to
antagonize public opinion on this point,
and II they are as wise as Mr., Powderly
would have them be they will frown down
any attempt to revive the right they
claimed, but afterward practically aban-
doned in their famous but disastrous con-
test with the Gould system. And there
is another point the Knights will do well
to keep in sight as they go along, This
is the right claimed by strikers to inter
fere with and use violence, If necessary,
on the men who are willing to take their
places. The boycott is silly procedure
that will kill itself gradually. 1t is un-
American and unmanly. In view of the
approaching national assembly of the
knights of Labor at Richmond it is to be
hoped that the wisest, most conservative
men belonging to.the organization will
come to the front and prevail. II they
