TWO STAR, THE SIOUX.
He Visits Washington and Sees the Kline
tOscOpe.
(Letter to St. Paul Pioneer-Press.)

(Letter to st. Paul Pioneer-Press.
Probably no Indian who ever visited
Washington to counsel with the great
father returned to his tribe b tier Salts
fed with the results of his trip than the
Sisseton Sioux Two Star. He not only
accomplished the object of his mission,
but he was entertained in style til 1t

latter, by the way, is a somewhat nota-
BILE figure himself. He is a son of that
Maj. Brown VINO commanded the troops
at the battle of Birch Cooley during the
Sioux outbreak. He has lived all his
life among these Indians, and now
keeps large store on the reservation. AS
has been indicated from time to time in
these dispatches Two Star was sent
here by his tribe to ask the immediate
payment to them of $780, of their
principal now in the custody of the
United States. ThisG sum amounts to
81 500, 900. The Indians are in very des-
titute circumstances this winter, owing
to an almost complete failure vi their
crops, and the interest due them is not
sufficient to carry them over until next
fall. The impairment of the principal
is matter which by law rests entirely
with the President.
In this case he has promised to follow
the recommendation of the commissioner
of Indian affairs, which is to the effect
that the grant be made. 1t is a some
what singular fact that although Two
Star was one of General Sibley's scouts
and has always associated with the
whites upon terms of the friendliest in
timacy ne cannot speak word of Eng
llsh. His enjoyment OF the white mans
amusemenUs is, however, none the less
keen. Senator Kyle's clerk, Duncan
MacF arland, took him III to see the kline
toscope. AS he looked in upon the pic
ture in motion look of amazement, not
unmixed with degree of CONSERVATION,
crept over his face. He stepped back
and looked around, above and below the
case. to find out what caused the exhibit

be persuaded to again apply the eye to

jumped as if he had heard the warw hoop
of some of his tribal enemies. He was
equally amazed, but none the less pleased
with the phonograph and insisted upon
having a selection by the Marine band
repeated. He was taken to an amateur
athletic and gymnastic performance at
the Columbia Athletic club, and wit
messed the exhibition of skill and prowess
with delight that was almost child
like just before his departure for the
West, Two Star said to the Pioneer Press
correspondents: II was here in 1867, but
no one paid any attention to me then.

to tell my people about the things /
