That Ordinance.

The city council has passed an ordi-
nance prohibiting evening market On
Military plaza. With no market and the
prospective pile of rock and building
material in the construction Of the new
CITY hall, there is nothing to induce peo-
pie to go to the plaza. 1t looks to man

Gerry could not afford to pay 800 q
month rent for a store on a plaza In that

In the mean time they will sell goods
at their usual unprecedented low prices,
and will give inducements to customers
to follow them. 3.H-5t

Indian Wives of White Men.

A lady who some time ago became much interested in the statement, contradicted at the time, that Gen. Sibley's first wife was a woman of the Chippewa nation, speaks in the pleasantest terms of her recollections of the early days when many men who have since become prominent in the state's history had houses presided over by wives in whose veins the Indian blood was uncrossed.
 "They were a pleasant and hospitable class of women" she says, ''rather taciturn sometimes, but women nevertheless, and good ones, too. Living always in the drud- gerry from which no Indian female ever es- capes in the society of the savage 'bucks,' no wonder that squaws were only squaws at any period of development, but when placed among the more refining influences of white homes and white husbands these Indian wo- men made wonderful progress, and made loving wives and mothers and kind neigh bors. You must remember, too, that the men who married Indian women in those days up hero were men in every sense of the word, not brutes and renegades like the 'squaw mem of whom you read in the west today. ay."-Minneapolis Journal.
