"A strong movement has developed
in the scandinavian Lutheran church
in Minnesota for the adoption Of En-
glish as the official language of the
church organization, and for the total
abandonment of the use of the old
tongue. Many prominent members are
convinced thatonly by the adoption Of
the English language in the church
can the younger generation, which was
either born or brought up in this coun-
try be kept within the Lutheran fold.
An organization mas been formed by
the progressive ministers and elders to
secure the change.
King MeneliI1 of Abyssinia is
founding a large library at Abbis
Abeba, and collecting all the old Eth
opian books be can find According
to tradition, when the Somalis in
vaded Abyssinia in the sixteenth cen
fury all the books belonging to the
emperor were hidden on an island in
Lake Zuai, in southern Shoa In De-
cember last Menelik sent fleet Of
RATS to the island, where the hidden
books were actually found. The ma
tives could not read them, but kept
them as religious objects. The manu-
scripts were left with them, but copies
were ordered for the new library

She saw that the Indians were
at the time busy with the other
party and in pilaging the outlying
cabins She set the two boys to fill
ing two barrels of water, and then to
wetting the sides of the cabin, so that
it would hardly take fire if fire were
built against it.
Then the ammunition was made
ready, and a pit was dug with shoves
in the middle of the earthen floor, into
which the children could be put, out OF
range of bullets which might fly
through the house.
And now Little Bear and his Indians
dashed up with white flag. Advanc.

would surrender their lives would ba
spared, but if they resisted they would
be put to death. Mrs Wellman re.
piled resolutely that they would not
surrender.
The Indians waited half an hour.
They counted upon the weakening
of the women. Little Bear summoned
them again to surrender, but they
refused again. Then the Indians
opened fire, and the women and boys
answered it.
The Indians began encrcling the
cabin, yelling and firing. Several bull
let's came through, but no one was
hurt Darkness came on, and during
it the Indians dug rihe-pits as near as
they dared and remained in them, fir
ing sharply. Several of them were hit
by the besieged party as they were at
work.
For three long days the siege was
kept up. The two boys did excellent
shooting, and Mrs. Wellman blazed
away ceaselessly. AT least a dozen
Indians were killed, and several others
wounded. Many bullets came in.
The small supply of provisions in the
hut gave out, then the women fed
their children, and went hungry them
selves.
At the close of the third day the In
dams fired last volley into the hut
and rode away. Early the next morn
