Scores of Labrador Indians Reported to
Have Starved.


Quebec, May 13-The worst of the
stories of restitution and death report
ed from time to time from Northern
Canada appear in the publication by or
der of parliament of the details of starv-
alton and death among the Indians and
Eskimos of Labrador. In the vicinity of
Fort Chino, Hudson Bay trading post
on Ungava bay, 100 people two-thirds of
the entire tribe of Montagnais Indians
trading at the post, have persisted OF
starvation. The Canadian government
has taken action by placing sum of
money at the disposal of the Hudson
Bay company for the relief of the In
dams and the Eskimos in the event Of
another severe winter, for nearly thirty
Eskimos are reported to have persisted,
in addition to the wholesale Indian ia
tally. So scarce is game becoming in
this country that the early disappear
ance of the remaining Indians is only
a question of time.

Two people upon the piazzn ever and
anon turned fond eyes upon him. Colo
mel Harper Cross and his wife had not
vet got their fill of looking at their SOL
dier son, now but two days home on
leave, and for the first time since he was
gazetted lieutenant Of cavalry. If the
pair were proud of him-and that nd
mitted no doubt-he was equally proud
of them and with quite as good reason.
In days ride you would not find an
elderly couple better worth looking at.

back turned it would have been easy to
mistake the one for the other.
Though the Harp Cross Of Mammy's
melncry might have been graceless
enough cub, he had developed wonder
fully under his wife's refining influence.
She had been to him indeed more
than liberal education in the finer
things, the subtler sensibilities Of life.
It had been precious triumph to him
to bring her there among those who had
frowned upon his youthful aspirations.
He had had no thought Of living among
his own people, but she at once declar-
ed herself in love with all she saw and
begged him to let their home be in his
native state. OF course they would not
stay there all the time. Her health made
travel imperative some part Of each
year. He had instantly fallen in with
her way Of thinking She was certainly
better, stronger, since they came For
her sake he would have agreed to live
in desert.
So they had pitched their tent and
dwelt in distant comfy with those
round about them. Mrs Cross paid no
visits-it was understood she had not
strength for it-and had few visitors,
except those who came from afar. Yet
all the world spoke we'll of the family.

whose management the gi-l had taken
into her own hands. Though the child
was but 10, her mother, nominally her
guardian, was really her charge. She
had been so indeed before her second
widowhood began. Now more than
ever she chung to her daughter, lacking
as she did the firm hand Of the perse-

But for that Tony would never have
had liberty to farm her own land. The
Rev. Cyrus Illways had been forever
bewailing the cares of this world which
numbered his spiritual advancement.
Notwithstanding he had somehow man
aged to absorb the lions share Of all
the land brought in. By consequence
he left it in such condition that no
thrifty man was willing to run furrow
there as tenant or cropper. Fences were
ruinous. The house roof even leaked
like riddle. Money for the most nee.
essary repairs had vanished down the
reverend gentleman's capacious throat.
Yet to the very last his sweet wife
had adored him, as Tony, in turn, ador.
ed her mother. The girl had large,
nobly generous nature. A discomfort
which touched only herself was some
thing to be laughed at. 1t made tears
come, though, to hear her mother fret
and pine for things essential to her
small gentility. Mrs. Illways fancied
herself the most uncomplaining soul
alive. She did not ask for much, only
things decently near the fashion for
herself and the children. Tony? Well,
Tony did not care. At least she never
