The number Of young children who have
perished this year in the Northwest, in con.
sequence Of their clothes taking fire while
playing about fires, kndled for sport in dry
leaves, grass and brushwood about their homes,
is startling enough TO be warning to all par
ents. There is no peril so great TO little
children as to be about these blazing fires,
clad loosely in cotton garments. The cloth
ing catches with flash, and nothing can
save them. They are too young to realize
their danger and their little companions can
not help them; and upon ignition Of their

Every parent Of foresight will guard against
hese shocking accidents by warning the
children and forbiding fires to be kindled by

publish accounts Of these accidents as a warn

whole chapter Of accidents none is so pitiful

DR.. Lyman Abott, who presided over the
thirteenth annual Indian conference held
ately at AIohunk lake, New York, claimed
n his opening address that this conference

o which it was pledged. Among these he
tied the position Of that body in insisting
hat the reservation is an evil, and that
indians should hold lands in seyeralty; that
is the duty Of the government to provide
ocular education to Indians, leaving mission
nv societies to leok out for their moral and
eligious training; that the Indians should be
mply protected while in transition state be-
ween barbarism and civilization, and, finally,
hat the Indian department should be taken
ut of politics. All Of these propositions the
