The Indian No Good.

A FR1FND of DIR. Arthur Greaves
tells in the following way, how it
comes the Doctor abandoned miss
ionary work among the Indians.
One year ago DR.. Arthur Greaves, of
Boston, went west to do missionary
work among the Indians. For the
last ten years be had been an active
member of Eastern societies formed
IN aid of the Indian, but he wished
to visit tho savagcs in person and to
administer spiritual and worldly
blessings to them. He visited n
number of agencies and conversed
with hundreds of Indians. Faith
fully he labored for nearly year.
Then be quit. DR. Greaves was at
tho Richeliu yesterday, journeying
toward Boston. He is totally dis
gusted with the aborigines.
81 have worked like an apostle of
olden times with the Indians" he
SAID last evening and have retired
from missionary work for good. The
Western Indians know more than
most people of Boston and they are
as crafty as a veteran detective. For
years, l pitied them, for 1 thought
they had boen treated shamefully,
and were innocent and Ignorant.
They know considerable. / wosld
tell them Bible stories at the Rose
bud Agency and they would listen
most attentively When 1 had fin
ished they would get together and
guy me unmercifully..A
When l was with the Sioux chief
Red Cloud he said 1 could make a
hundred people happy by getting
our society to send out fifty plows
and other farming Instruments. l
got the people at home interested in
the matter and they shipped me two
carloads of heavy tools. These were
distributed to the Indians, who ap-
psared overjoyed with the prospect
of having the means of tilliug the
soil. Shortly after this 1 went fur
West for a month. When l return
ed L could not find any of the in
struments sent out from Boston.
Alter dlligent search 1T was discov-
cred that the heatben had pitched
them oil i'll the White River and
made bridge of them. The costly
tools sent out for farming purposes
were used as you would stones and a
bridge across a little river was all the
good that was accomplished This
is one instance and there are many
similar cases.
"At this time 1 began to lose faith
IN the sincerity displayed by the In
dams, and subsequent events proved
to me that tie Indian could only be
an Indian. All the teaching IN the
world could make no difference.
The best way to solve the Indian
problem is not to bother with it at
all. Leave the mstter with the
Western people and they will treat
the red man fairly and keep him in
his place. At the same time the
Eastern philanthropists, who meddle
with affairs of which they no accur
ate knowledge, do more harm thar

Expelling Flies.

If two and a half pounds of pow.
dered laurel-leaves are macerated
and boiled in two gallons of water,
until their poisonous quality is ex
tracted, and with the solution a
whitewash is made, by adding as
much quicklime as can be Stacked in
it, and if a room be whitewashed
with this preparation, flies will not
settle on the walls,
1t is also said that paste made
by stirring together one pint of the
powdered laurel leaves with one
fourth pint Of glycerine applied to
the window and door castings will

same sum to each of his children ov-

WORLDS FAIR NOTES.

Twenty-four foreign nations have
now accepted the invitation to par
ticipate in the Exposition at Chicago
Russia, Turkey, Denmark, Persia and
Egypt are among the recent acquis.
itions.
The colored people, through the
National Emancipation Monument
Association, propose to erect a SUI
perb monument IA feet high in the
Exposition grounds, commemmora-
tive of the emancipation of the ne
gro race. The plans provide for q
hugh stone plinth surmounted by d
negro soldier, and surrounded at the
base by bronze statutes of Lincoln,
Loveioy, John Brown, Garrison,
Phillips and two or three others
prominent in the emancipation move
ment.
The Kansas Worlds Fair manage
ment offered prizes of SO each for
the best samples of wheat, oats, rye,
and other grains and grasses. TO be
put in bundles eight inches in diam
eter; each contestant furnishing two
bundles. Half of the samples re-
ceived will be entered for premiums
at the Expo sition and the others to
be used in decorating the Kansas
State building at the Fair.
The Woman's Christian Temper
ance Publication Association have
applied through Josephine R. Mich
OILS, of indianapolis for 100 to 20 feet
of space in which to make an exhibit.
Miss Nichols says these organizations
want to exhibit flags, banners, books
and other publications, and numer-
Gus other things all prepared by wo-
men, and also to establish and oper-
ate a hospital and model creche, at
the latter of which, women visitors
with babies can leave them to be car
ed for while they see the sights.
Tulare, California, proposes to fur
nish very novel exhibit for the Fair.
From q gigantic redwood tree, 800
feet high, and 20 feet in diameter,
will be cut two length 45 feet long,
and these will be transformed into
full sized railway coaches by hollow
ing out the interior. The rough
bark of the tree will be left on the
roof and on the sides and ends the
natural wood will be left unpublished.
The interior will be finished after the
style of Pullman cars. One will be
buffet dining car, with bath, bar
ber shop and kitchen, and the other
slesper with observation room.
Ordinary car trucks will be put un-
derneath and the men of Tulare, with
their wives and children will make
the trip to Chicago in these strange
coaches and live in them while there.
The intention is to keep these cars
in the Exposition grounds, and to
sell as mementoes the portions OF the
tree cut away in their construction.
The lumbermen of Washington
havs promised to contribute all the
material necessary for the construc
ton of the building of that State at
the Exposition, and the Northern Pa
cifc has agreed to transport the ex
hibit free of charge. Thus Wash
ington can expend upon its exhibit
the entire 100000 which was ap-
propriated.
