Ono Of the most remarkable Of the
wonderful things of which Pittsburg
boasts is the combination well that has
been struck at the cracker factory Of s..
S. Marvin & Co. on Liberty street. Ii
produces at one and the same time cold
water, as pure and sweet as the dew that
falls from heaven, salt water gs briny as
old oceans wavcs and u flow of gaH that
when iguited eliminates the entire sur
roundings. The well was drilled some
time ago, Mr.. Marvin's idea being to get
a supply of pure cold water for use in
his bakery IN the summer and during
flood times, when the city water is not
desirable. At 100 feet the fresh water
was struck, and az 200 feet the salt
water and gas were found. Two castings
were inserted, n Tor the salt water and
gas, the other for the fresh water; and
nov when the engine is started and tho
gas lighted, spectators behold the won.

and fire all coming out Of one well at the

passed on the Indian lands. The Chippewas
had been peaceable so long that no one
dreamed of their doing any damage; but
their annual gathering gave occasion to air
and discuss their grievances, and their dances
excited the young bucks to the point where
they felt that they must go off and kill some
body. 1t takes at least ten generations of
careful culture to breed the wild nature out
of any race of men OF stock of animals.
The Ojibbeways, or Ojibways, were the
main branch of the great Algonquin family,
and conferred on Lake Huron, stretching as
far east as Ohio, and to the far northwest,
from which they had come Indeed, all the
tribes this side of the Rocky mountains, and
many farther west, have clear traditions OF
having come from the north, each invasion
driving its predecessors before it. They took
part with the French and then with the Eng
lish against the Americans, but made per
manent peace in 1916. Retiring westward
from Michigan and Wisconsin they expelled
the Sioux from upper Minnesota, and have re-
manned there some sixty years They are noted
among Indians for having produced some
remarkable scholars. One of them, George
CONWAY, wrote the traditional history of his
people and attracted much attention in Eng
land. Another Peter Jones, is writer OF
ability. They have written language
newspaper, ard many books. The mission.
aries speak very highly Of those in Mime

GREAT DISPLAY AT PARIS.
AS A SHOW MERELY IT is THE
GREATEST ON EARTH.

The Useful Not Well Represented fet-The
Curious and the Beautiful Abundant.
The Home Life and Work Of All Races
in All Ages Well Portrayed.
The American workman, to whom che pas
sage money is an unattainable fortune, is in
vited to see the Paris exposition by proxy
and at trifling individual expense.
\ This is substantially the proposition Of Mr..
Edward w. Scripps, who proposes TO leave
for Paris on the Gath Of July with forty rep.
resentative and genuine workingmen, each
chosen by the associations of the trade he
represents; and these forty are not only to
sec the exposition, but to investigate the con-
dition Of European laborers from the south
of France to the north of Scotland and make
full report. The claim is made that many
valuable suggestions will be gained, even as
Americans learned to do many things better
by seeing how the foreigners did them at the
Philadelphia exposition of 1876. Only practi-
col workmen will be taken, each master in
his own craft, and as each would naturally
take most interest In the foreigners in his
own lines, the variety Of opinions returned
would be amusing as well as instructive.
In the meantime an army Of reporters are
giving all readers a view by proxy, and as
they are on the ground before more than
half the visitors get there and while the
exhibit is incomplete their views are anus
ing and contradictory enough. Each one
naturally writes of that feature most inter-
esting to him, and so we get the impression
that the exposition is an odd tumble of sue

THE CHlPPEWAS.
Something About the Indians Who Have
Broken Out in Minnesota.

Something About the Indians Who Have
Broken Out in Minnesota.
The Chippewas have 'broke out, which is
almost as much of surprise to Minnesota as
an outbreak" among the Quakers would be
in Pennsylvania. The Chippewas have been
peaceable so long that many people would
have forgotten their existence but for the
names they scattered on the geography from
Lake Erie to Winnipeg; but the late murders
at Mile Laos show that the wild nature is
still hereditary in them.
There was time when these Indians, more
properly called Ojibbeways, were the terror
of the northwest, and in their long wars with
the Sioux they had a roll of heroes equal to
that of Homer, ending with the great Pah-
yah Goonseh, the red Napoleon of the north
west. The two tribes have been at war from
a time whereof the memory of man runnetb
not to the contrary. The Chippewas were
generally victorious in the timbered region,
but the Sioux prevailed on the prairie, and
so the Red river had become sort OF boun-
Diary when the whites began to settle north
ern Minnesota. For many years the Indians
of one tribe would venture to town or fort
only ON one side, as the others came up ha-
bitually on the other side, each party sending
in scouts to see that the other did not take
snap judgment on them. AS late as 1856
they had regular battle in Shackopee, max
ing it very lively for the white inhabitants.
Mile Laos is lovely lake, some sixteen
miles long, and is the head Of Rum river
Along its shores is the Indian reservation,
and fish and game have been quite abundant;
but of late years there have been too many
white hunters, and many farmers have tres
