Territory Enjoy Home Life.
Clumsy squaws were squatting in rows
along shore as we lounged about the vii
lage; hideous bucks-I trust they were
not framed in the image of their Maker
-~ill-shapen lads, dumpy, expressionless
babies, green-complexioned half-breeds,
sat and looked on with utter indiffer-
ence. Many of the Haida Indians have
kinky or wavy hair, Japanese or Chinese
eyes, n most of them toe out; but they
are, all things considered, the least in
teresting, the most ungainly and the
most unpicturesque of people. If there
is work for them to do they do it, quite
needless of the presence of inquisitive
pale-faced spectators. Indeed, they seem
to look down upon the white man, and
perhaps they have good reasons for doing
so. If there is no work to be done they
are not in the least disconnected.
l very much doubt if a Haida Indian,
or any other Indian for hat matter,
knows what it is to be bored or to find
the time hanging heavily on his hands.
| took note Of one old buck who sat for
four solid hours without once changing
his position. He might have been sit
ting there still but that his squaw routed
him out after a lively monologue, to
which he was an apparently disinterested
listener. At last he arose with a grunt,
ad justed his blanket, strobe grimly to his
canoe and bailed it out; hen he entered
and padded leisurely to the shore, where
he disappeared in the forest. Filth was

killisnoo is situated in a cosy little
covert. 1t is a rambling village that
climbs over the rocks and narrowly es-
capes being pretty, but it manages to
escape. Most of the lodges are built of
logs, have small, square windows, with
glass in them and curtains, and have
also a kind of primitive chimney. We
climbed among these lodges and found
them quite deserted. The dodgers were
all down at the dock. There were in
scriptions on a few of the doors, the
name of the tenant and a request to OBJ
serve the sacredness of the hearth. This
we were careful to do, but inasmuch as
each house was set in order and the win
dow curtains carefully looped back, we
were no doubt welcome to a glimpse of
an Alaskan interior. 1t was the least
little bit like "a peep-show, and didn't
seem quite real. One inscription was as
follows-it was over the door of the
