Immense Copper Coins.

Gustavus Steinberg, Swedish coin
dealer of Chicago, has received through
the Custom House collection of ex-
ceedingly unique coins which it is pro-
posed to exhibit at the Worlds Fair.
The coins came from Sweden, where
they circulated in the sixteen century.
They bear more resemblance to pieces
of boiler iron after an explosion than
money. The coins are great fat pieces
OF copper cut into very poor squares.
The smallest coin is four inches square
and worth 30 cents, and the largest over
foot square and with face value
of S4
Each slab of copper is stamped in sew
eral places with AN inscription giving its
date of issue and it's denomination The
largest weighed over four pounds
These enormous and cumbersome
coins were the result of an absurd craze
which prevailed several hundred years
ago regarding the exclusive use of cop
per for money. 1t was not until the
government of Sweden carried the coin
age of copper to absurd lengths that the
people discarded it's use.
In those days of copper coinage,
wealthy ladies were compelled to hire
an attendant to accompany them to
carry bucket full of the coppers while
shopping.

laughter and singing which heralded the
advent of these wild young savages into
our army.
Arriving at the post, trouble was at
first anticipated in getting them to have
their long, straight hair clipped, but
none whatever was experienced, the
men submitting to the ordeal willingly,
and, in fact, in all things seemed only
too anxious to become as much like the
white soldiers as possible.
They We're taught English words,
preferably the names of common objects
around them, and by the Ist of July
forty men could sign their names to the
June muster rolls, twenty one of whom
were unable to do so on the MAY rolls.
Drills We're begun at once, commencing
with the setting-up exercises and the
school Of the soldier dismounted, and
their progress was surprisingly rapid
the execution of the marchings and the
manual Of arms being especially well
done. This Improvement was the more
encouraging as all but eleven members
of the troop knew nothing of English
except a few disconnected words In
learning the drill it was necessary for
them to memorize the different English
communicative tactical movement with
its command of execution, being first
explained by an interpreter. All com
mands were and have been given in
English and very little repetition has
been necessary for the Indians to grasp
them.
Immediately upon arriving at the post
the troop started its own mess and the
men were taught the details of civilized
cooking, SO that at the present time
there are in the troop number of ex-
cellent cooks. From the first the great
est cleanliness was insisted on, and the
traditional slovenliness of the Indian
seemed to have been left with his rela-
tives on the reservation.
Upon the arrival of charts, states, and
primary school books a daily recitation
Q! an hour and a half was begun, and
he improvement in reading and writing
was most encouraging. The instruction
was further supplemented by an object
lesson class, whose members were
taught the names of their arms, equip
ments, and articles of clothing, the
greatest interest being displayed, more
especially with respect to all things re-
lating to the military service.
In the fall of 1891, about six months
after enlistment, the troop, mounted
took tour through the reservation for
the double purpose of stimulating pride
and ambition and of showing the other
Indians how much Improvement had
been made.
The trip was pronounced success.
Both mounted and dismounted drills
took place in the presence of the chiefs
and head men, and the troop was as
much on it's mettle to excel as any crack
State organization drilling for a prize
trophy.
Up to the present time improvement
has been steadily satisfactory, although,
naturally enough, not as remarkable
latterly as that which was made at the
outset.
There is troop blacksmith, George
Bull, who cares for the horses most eff

virtues of all the roots and herbs in this
part of the country. His care for the
horses of the troop is assiduous, and he
we'll deserves the testimonial as to his
trustworthiness which he received from
Gen. Crook in 1876
The troop tailor" is young Apache
from San Carlos, Arizona, who enlisted
for the troop from Carlisle. He has al
ready paid $75 for his sewing machine,
and has deposited $50 of savings with
the paymaster, obtained entirely through
his pay and earnings. He does such ex-
cellent work that he now has orders from
all troops in the post.
The troop barber has little to do ex-
cept with cutting hair. The Indians
never shave and when hair does appear
on their faces they pull it out by the
roots with small pair of tweezers.
Charley Running Horse. the saddler,
is fine worker in leather and his Car
isle training has been further improved
by lessons from the regimental saddler
sergeant.
The troop has had much to learn of
things which come naturally to white

To Work In the Slums.

A wealthy man and his wife, Mr.. and
Mrs. George Montgomery, of Califor-
mia, have renowned the pleasures of the
world to devote themselves to work in
the slums in connection with the Saliva
ton Army. About twelve years ago
Mrs. Montgomery, who was then Mise
Carrie Judd, of Buffalo, was cured by
faith and prayer after a sickness of two
years when she was believed to be in
the last stages of consumption. From
that time she has devoted herself to
PRONUNCIATION of faith cure doctrines by
establishing magazine, writing her
life, and founding hospital. Mr..
Montgomery also believes himself to
have been cured of diabetes by faith.
Since their marriage two years ago the
couple have devoted their life to good
works, having established mission for
fallen women, helped foreign mission
airy work and assisted in other worthy
enterprises. Mr.. and Mrs. Montgomery
are now beginning work in the New
York sums They will also establish a
camp meeting ground for Salvationists

A Successful Experiment.


In the year 1890, writes Charles d
Rhodes, in the Chicago Inter Ocean,
two troops in each of the ten regiments
OF cavalry were skeletonized-that is
the enlisted men OF these troops were
distributed among the other ten troons
or the same regiment, and officers We're
assigned to these so-cailed "paper
troops, who We're not present for duty
with their regiments. This was done to
pring the remaining troops u 10 its
maximum strength of officers and men.
After the close of the Sioux campaign
al lo9O-9l, the War Department directed
mat one OF the skeletenized troops in
each regiment be again materialized
ana recruited ny enlistments from
among the lnafans, and it was in COM
Piiahce VITA this order that the enlist
Ineht OF Troop j., Sixth Cavalry-the
iirsb regular Indian troop or company
0igaiVzed-was begun among the Brule
SioVx by Lieut. Il. E. bravo, at the
a@sebud Agency, South Dakota, in
April, 1891.
In order to expedite the enlistment as
well as to come TO a thorough under
standing with the Indians of Just what
inducements would be offered by the
government, and what duties would in
return be required of Indian soldiers,
she hrst week at the agency was devoted
10y che officers recruiting party to series
OF talks with all the braves, young and
old, who were interested in the enlist
ment, and the weeks deliberations were
brought to fitting close by, grand
council, participated in by very large
number of Indians.
To the Brules, the greatest obstacle
20 enlistment was, naturally enough,
tne TACT that the latter would probably
at some time take them far away from
their friends and relatives, and this
point was prominently brought out by
the Old men at the council. They wished
condition introduced that upon enlist
mene the Indians should serve on or
ne2r their reservation.
4 But as has since been shown, this con-
dition would have proven a great bar to
progress, and the objection was met by
arguments proving the great benefits

gained by contact of the young men with
the civilization of the East; that, so
long as the Indians remained on their
reservation, aloof from the white people,
80 long would they make little improve
;ment; whereas the boys who had re-
turned from the schools at Hampton,
Carlisle, and elsewhere could tell of the
wonderful prosperity of the East. The
force OF these arguments was further
enhanced by the verbal testimony of
those chiefs who had visited Washing
ton. Finally and quite suddenly the
sentiment in regard to leaving the vicin-
tty OF the reservation. seemed to COM
pletely change, and with counter-direct-
ness the young men were counseled by
their chiefs to enlist and, if possible, to
go all over the Great Fathers country,
learning all they could for their own and
their peoples good
Another objection raised at the coun-
Gil was the desire of the chiefs to have
their own favorite young men appointed
non commissioned officers Immediately,
with view to their becoming commits
stoned officers later on. 1t was with
great difficulty that this point was set
tied, until the Carlisle men explained to
the chiefs how impossible it was for In
dams to become officers until their
standard of education was raised.
Other points were discussed and ques-
lions answered, and altogether the In
dams were made to feel that--although
they were not in the least coerced irto
enlisting, and if made at all it was to
be unconditional-they would by SO do
Ing certainly give substantial proof of
their friendliIess toward the Govern
ment, besides gaining for themselves
numerous advantages.
On April 6, two days after the coun-
Gil, the enlistment was begun, and on
this and the two days succeeding forty
two Brule braves were examined phys
ically by the surgeon, and thirty two of
these accepted and enlisted. By April
90 the troop was enlisted to fifty-two
men, and the two remaining vacancies
were afterward filed without trouble,
competition even running high.
1t is interesting to here note the fact
that the troop was enlisted from the most
warlike and daring, perhaps, of all In
dian tribes, and from among the very
Sioux who some months before had bolt
ed into the Bad Lands, and had given
!. the Government so much trouble and
anxiety during the disagreeable winter
campaign.
Added to this, twenty three of the en-
listments were made from the camps of
Sky Bull and Big Turkey, considered
the most conservative and n-progres-
sive camps on the reservation.
These points are interesting in view of
the remarkable progress since made by
the troop.
