A TWO-MONTHS JOURNEY
ON FOOT THROUGH SNOW AND WA.
Terry FIELDS.

ON FOOT THROUGH SNOW AND WA.
Terry FIELDS.
Jas. G. O'Brien returned Mon.
day from trip through that al
most unexplored region north of
Red Lake. The party consisting
OF ten under command of J. w.
Howes, deputy U. S. Marshal were
sent out by the Indian department
to investigate the alleged en-
croachment of whites upon the
northern part of the reservation.
They left Red Lake agency about
two months ago about the time
when the season was coolest and
snow deepest. They secured In
dams as guides and had two doc
trains with which to convey their
supplies. The journey at first was
made upon snow shoes, later when
the snow had melted they were
obliged to wade through water for
miles at a time. Mr.. O'Brien re.
ports some very fine farming coun-
try along the rivers tributary to
Lake of the Woods. The supposed
swampy portion north of Red Lake
is not SO extensive as reported.
The line of the Duluth 4 Winni-
peg R. Il. runs through some very
fine agricultural country. The
rivers of this section are the most
magnificent beheld by human eye,
the waters all teeming with fish
and fur bearing animals. Upon
the Rainy Lake River and at the
outlet OF Rapid River are beautiful
townsltes. What will add most to
the wealth of the country is the
pine and mineral; Many OF the
half breeds and others who have
squatted upon the reservation re-
port iron, copper and gold among
the minerals, while coal floats
down the river after heavy rains
or during times Of foods. The fish
industry is important along The
Lake Of the Woods and tributaries.
One Individual has built upon the
reservation large ice house where
fish are packed. Sturgeon eggs
are preserved and shipped to
Europe. The inhabitants as a.
class are lawless and greatly adj
dicted to the use Of alcohol and to-
bacco. Money is a scarce article
and change of small denominations
is at premium. A vast amount
Of timber has in the past years
been stolen from the reservation
and run into Canada; along the
Roseau river, a tributary of the
Red river, is n vast tract of pine
which will come into market in a
short time. This will be a good
investment for some American
capitalist as the lumbermen from
Winnipeg rely on securing a sup.
ply Of logs from this tract. An
exhaustive report Of the expedition
will no doubt throw a great deal
Of information to- the department.
Of country north Of Red Lake, The
Duluth & Winnipeg railroad will
open up wonderful country and
there will be chance for the &C.
emulation Of fortunes along this
line. [East Grand Forks News.

Americans who grumble at the search
ing nature of the census takers ques-
tions, should look at the inquisition to
which the Germans are subjected. The
German year book gives the figures of
hundred and fifty dollars or less is not
taxed, and up to seven hundred and fifty
dollars the tax is nominal. For incomes
over seven hundred and fifty dollars the
owner must swear as to the truth Of the
figures he gives. In Berlin there is no
personal liberty. The police methods
greatly aid in the preparation of an &C
curate census. No room can be rented
at a hotol or boarding house, and no
apartment or house can be legally
leased, until the landlord has sent to the
police the name and purpose OF the new
conner and the length Of time for which
he will probably make the city his home.
The same method is In vogue in other
German cities. The experience of one
Of the professors Of the University of
Pennsylvania recently is significant as to
the effectiveness of these methods.
Wishing to communicate with an Ameri-
can lady who was abroad, and, as he
thought, in Leipsic, he wrote to the
police Of that city. The answer declared
that no person Of the name was In the
city. A similar letter was sent to the
police headquarters Of Dresden, and a
similar answer was received. When,
later, however, the professor wrote to
the police of Berlin, the reply announced
the lady's exact address.

New NOSES roR oLD


Remarkable Operations Successfully Per-
formed BY n Hindoo Doctor.
In an out Of the way corner Of India, in
Kattywar, q Hindoo doctor, Tribhow-
undas Shah, L. NJ, has during the last
six years been carrying on a succession
OF operations In rhinoplasty, OF the re-
newing Of noses, such as probably no
other medical practitioner IN the world
has ever had the opportunity Of attempt
ing.
The State of Junsgatdh, where these
interestingt operations have been per-
formed, Is notorious for the cutting of
OF noses, the practice being adopted both
by Jealous husbands as punishment
for their wives, and by several tribes,
Of whom the Mekranis are the worst, as
mark Of vengeance on their enemies.
DIR. Tribhowundas has for some years
been in charge of the Central Hospital
at Junagadh, where he has carried on
the duties Of medical officer, as well as
surgeon general for the State, with much
ability and In book recently published
he gives the result Of 100 operations in
rhinoplssty which be has successfully
performed.
In cutting of the nose, razor, a knife,
a sickle, OF sword is used, and accord
ing to the sharpness of the instrument
the cut is a clean or ragged one. The
operation Of rhinoplasty varies accord
ing to the wound, and It's success de-
pends very much on the quality of the
original nose-that is to say, whether it
was mostly bone or carthage. A soft
nose is the most easily replaced. DR..
Tribhowundas performs his operations
by removing flap Of skin from the fore
head or cheek of the patient and uniting
this with the help Of sutures to the re-
malnlng portion Of the mutllated nose
until the junction is complete.
The patients are put under treatment
from one to three weeks, and In most
Instances all traces Of disfigurement ap-
pear 70 have been removed.

Even the complexion is dominated by
fashion, and blonde and brunette have
in turn their little day. In Queen Eliza
beth's time blondes were specially in
favor. Frequent mention In the lltera-
ture Of the past is made of oils and
essences for improving the appearance.
A receipt of that century is as follows
" To render the face a beautiful color
bathe in wine, after which wash the face
in warm milk, then you will be both
faire and ruddy." A piece Of proverblal
lore is "The fair maid who washes In
dew from the hawthorn tree, will ever
after handsome be-" But the attempt to
cheat Time Of his wrinkles has generally
proven vain. Turning to the color of
the complexion, Shakespeare only men,
tons black hair twice throughout his
plays. Indeed, In ''As You Like It 4" the
slepherdess complains Of being soorned
on account Of her dark hair Thackeray,
II owever, makes all his dark heroiues
II ice, and his fair women cruel.

way emploles .and the corpol olations under
which they work, the wages paid in all
branches of tie service and in different
paris of the country, and the time lost as
veil as other matters of vital lntrest to
railway employees.
