upon the feasibility Of holding summer show

The Ottawa free trader. [volume] (Ottawa, Ill.) 1843-1916, 1889-04-20

Every stream, ridge and plain is described
in their admirable report; good pictures are
presented Of individuals of every tribe Of
| Indians First are the ChOCtawS, and the
specimens pictured are of tattoued men and
women in the garb of wild Indians. Western
men say there is no progress in tho Indian
territory, yet only a few years later the
Choctaws were wearing the costumes of the
whites. The annexed engraving shows a
group of their older people as they were at
the close of the war. Now the traveller
through the Choctaw country sees few signs
of being in an Indian country except i'll the
complexion of the full bloods. And to SEQ
many of these he must go off the lines of
travel. as those near the public roads are
generally white.
A little further west the explorers found
the Kichais and HueCOs Indians, both I'M
known to the present generation; and be-
You'd them the COmanches, among whom
were many iexican captiveS. Builaloes were
abundant on the Canadian; the present dis
puted Oklahoma was one great bison pasture.
Las Vegas and Santa Fe they found as far,
practically, from civilization as Timbuctoo
now is and beyond they got drawings Of
MOqu and Xuni pueblos, with descriptions
which seemed like revivals of Spanish ro-
mances Beyond they passed many tribes,
of whom the very names are now unknown
in that region And all this was but thirty
six years ago.
The Choctaws, who interested the explorers
very much and furnished them guides TO the
Rio firandc, progressed very rapidly till the
war, during which their country was desc
lated They were the aborigines of Missis-
sppi and adjacent sections of Alabama, and
began to move west as early as 1900, In 1880
the removal was complete, and in 1861 they
and the Chiclasaws consolidated into one
nation numbered 10000 and owned 5000
slaves. Since the war they have again ac-
quired property and live in considerable com
fort. They are not so directly interested in
the Oklahoma question rs are the Cherokces,
but have the same long continued contro-
versy with the United States in regard to al
lotting their lands III severalty The visitor
who attends one Of the numerous churches
in their "nation" and contrasts tho well
dressed worshpers with the Choctaws pic
tured by LeutS Ives and Whipple, will per-
ceive that there has been amazing progress
even in the Indian territory.

POURING WATER INTO A SIEVE.


If the cup is held as shown in the cut, eX-
plains Scientific American, and water is
poured into it very gently and along one OF
its sides, there is no difficulty in filling it to
the depth of three inches rmore with water
This illustrates water held in n sieve. If II
finger of the hand holding the cup is wet,
the water as it rises TO the level of the moist
ened part will at once rush out. If, when
the cup is full, the wet finger is rubbed on
the bottom, this will be sufficient to cause the
water to escape. The cup will float upon
water for an indefinite period, but if invert-
ed and placed like a diving bell, will at once
sink.
The water in this experiment practically
forms "A film or membrane, not touching the
wire gauze and holding the body of the water
together. The figure on the upper part Of
the cut is an attempt to show how the water
rests upon the wires. The little film is bowed
down between every two wires, forming a
species of sac.
The eXperimenter must remember to have
his hand perfectly dry. 1t is very curious,
as the water rises to feel its chilling effect
through the wire gauze without the hand
being at all mostened.
