and introduced the speaker, Mr.. Shelton OF

Mr.. Shelton traced the history of the at
tempts TO solve the Indian problem, show
Ing how that waiting for them to die off by
themselves and by numbering them had
been miserable failures. Mr.. Shelton said
there Is Christian side to the Indian
great thing for the Indian. but that 1t did
not approach the matter in the right way.
he said that the ancient traditions Of their
religion and the fear of the angry God
stand before the Indian and the govern
ment, and that it is absolutely i'm
by any legal means. Speaking of the
Sioux uprising last winter, he called 1t
rather an in-break Of soldiers into a reser-
walton where they had no call to go, than
an outbreak of the Indians He said most
alphabetically that the so-called Messiah
craze had no more to do with the trouble
than the audience before him had. The
Messiah did not utter enc word against the
government. He arraigned most severely
the white men on the borders of the reser-
vations for trying to. break up the reli-
gi0us services by their idle curiosity. An
other cause of the trouble was found In the
failure of the government to keep its
pledges regarding the sale of 11.000,0 900
acres of the Dakota reservation.
A collection was taken up, after which
Dakota Sioux described the life of the In
dams in the village on the upper Missouri,
where he was brought up. He described
the efforts of the Indians to find God. He
closed with warm expression of thanks
to the people for their efforts in support Of
the training schools, saying that the young
native preachers could do much good
among the people.
The meeting closed with music.

DECENTRALIZATION P. Aver VS.. Marga-
ret Libby. The plaintiff claims to recover
$40 for money advanced on the defendants
order to pay a doctors bill, and for several
other items, amounting In all to $62. The
defendant claims that all these Items were
furnished her in payment for lot Of GA k
timber which she sold the plaintiff IN 1884
for $50. The plaintiff says he acted as
agent for Miss Libby in the sale OF the OAK
timber; that he did not purchase II, but
sold 1t for her to Thomas Varney. The de-
PENDANT contends that 1t was sold to Aver,
and the fact that Varney failed without
paying for 1t Is the reason Aver claims that
Varney, and not he, bought 1t. Varney
testified that he bought the timber of Mar
garet and not of Aver. but Varney's sched-
nle of creditors, which he filed in the In.
solvent court, does not mention Margaret
Libby as creditor, but does include the
name of A. p. Aver.
