AN AMAZED INDIAN CHIEF.
Two Stars Introduction TO the kaleidoscope
aud the Photograph.

aud the monograph.
Probably no Indian who ever visited
Washington to counsel with the great
father returned to his tribe better salts
fed with the results of his trip than the
Sisseton Sioux Two Star. He not only
accomplished the object of his mission,
out he was entertained in style that
falls to the lot of few of the nations
wards. Agent Keller was with him, as
we'll as the interpreter, Joe Brown. The
latter, by the way, is somewhat notable
figure himself He is son of that Ma
jor Brown who 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.
Two Star was sent here by his tribe

of $199, 900 of their principal now in
the custody of the United States. This
sum amounts to $1,000. 900. The In
dams are in very destitute circumstances
this winter, owing to an almost COM
plete failure of their crops, and the in
terest due them is not sufficient to carry
them over until next fall. The impair
ment of the principal is a matter which
by law rests entirely with the president
In this case he has promised to follow
the recommendation of the commission.
er of Indian affairs, which is to the ef-
feet that the grant be made.
1t is a somewhat singular fact that,
although Two Star was one of General
Silbey scouts and has always associated
with the whites upon terms of the
friendliest intimacy, he cannot speak
word of English. His enjoyment of the
white mans amusement is, however,
none the less keen. Senator Kyle's clerk,
Duncan Mcfarland, took him in to sec
the kaleidoscope. AS he looked in upon
the picture in motion look of amaze
ment, not unmixed with a degree Of
CONSERVATION, crept over his face. He
stepped back and looked around, above
and below the case to find out what
caused the exhibition. 1t was some time
before he could be persuaded to again
apply the eye to the aperture, and when
the machine stopped with a click the
