DEVILS I,nyra.

Tangsgo, the Chippewas, came from the
north and pitched their tepees on the norsh
shore of the lake. They had reason to e.
lieve that the Sioux were encamped on the
southern shore, and they planned to cross
to the south before daylight and surprise
their traditional enemies. The Sioux had
a similar thought and design, and each
tribe proceeded to exterminate the other.
They met in about the middle of the lake
and fought, and all were lost. The time is
not fixed except that the incident marks
an epoch tn the history of both tribes.
Another battle was fought afterward on
the south shore between other contingents
OF those respective tribes. The Chippewas
came in canoes from the north as before,
This was in 1857. The Chippewa warriors
We're all slain but one man, who returned
badly wounde aud riddled. The fatalities
connected with the lake and the apparitions
gave rise to the name Minnewaukan, or
spirit water, mysterious water, haunted
water, fated water, and finally to Devils
lake as the only English equivalent for the
Indians idea as expressed in Minnewaukan
The Chippewas came here in canoes. The
sioux also used canoes. With but few
portages, the former could easily at that
time, while the lake was SO far above its
present level, come from Lake Superior to
Devils lake. Since the fatalities related
those Indians have a superstitious dread of
canoes. Young people are getting over the
dread, but old Indians will wade to their
waist fishing while boats are within reach.

THE Unwonted Sight Which Attracted All
Eyes on n rnwde Street.
The sidewalk was filled with hurrying
people. Three peddlers stood on the curb
on with shoelaces, another with candy, an
other with gold paint. Neither looked as
If he expected to sell anything. Nobody
paid the slightest attention to them. A
man without legs came stumping over the
sidewalk. People merely hurried out of his
way. A man passed, dressed in outlandish
garments, advertising 9 patent medicine.
Nobody looked twice at him. An old wonl-
an whose tangled gray hairs were blown in
the wind shufied feebly along, and nobody
saw her. A pair of Chinese, an Italian
woman dressed as for a fete, a negro nearly
z feet in height, a Turk swaddled in turban
and baggy trousers, a drunken woman, a
man with locomotor ataxia-all passed
within a few minutes, and nobody stopped
even for a moment to look at anybody else,
except the besgars, and they were utterly
disregarded.
Then appeared from somewhere, as if out
of a hole in the ground, a child about 9
years old, ragged and smeared as to its
hands with mud and as to it's face with
traces of bread and molasses, besides plain
dirt. Its hair was tousled, and it's large

that sweet unconsciousness Of childhood
written of by poets. In It's hands it carried
a gray striped cat. One little fist grabbed
the loose skin at the nape the other grasped
1t firmly over the hind quarters. Each par
ticular leg Of the cat stuck out straight and
rigid. Each claw showed it's shining curve.
The cat did not appear to be uncomfortable,
and the child was gloriously unconscious
of everything but Its own baby thoughts.
The child was so young that it went I'M
steadily tottering down the middle of the
sidewalk, with the cat held up n front of 1T
like a drum majors staff.
There was not one hurrying wayfarer-
man or w~onaan-who did not pause and
laugh. A number stopped short and fol-

the time the baby had travelled half a block
1t had an escort of 20 grown persons besides
the swarm of boys. The baby tottered
