CHILDREN OF NATURE.
Recollections of the Wild Life by an Edu
Gated Sioux Indian.

Sateu Sioux
Our wanderings from place TO place
afforded us many pleasant experiences,
as well as mary hardships and misfor-
tunes. We had several narrow escape.
from death. There were times OF
plenty and times of scarcity. There
were seasons of happiness and seasons
Of sadness. In savage life the early
spring is the most trying time, and
almost all the famines occurred at this
period of the year.
The Indians are a patient and clan
nish people; their love for one another
is stronger than that of any civilized
people ! know. If this were not so. l
believe there would have been tribes
of cannibals among them. White people
have been known to kill and eat their

the adults often denied themselves a

can go without food much longer than
any other nation.

Thames river, in Connecticut. The
structure has been designed by Prof
j. A 1. Waddell, of Kansas City. The
construction of the pier Of this swing

and presented many features of inter

the work was begun by sinking a

steel cylinders extend to height of one
