Rev. James iGilfllan, of the White
Earth reservation, who has been in the
city in attendance on the Indian teach
ers' convention, has presented the So
ciety with a cradle of Indian make, a
culver of arrows and bow, tomahawk,
pipes and baskets of unique design.
The exhibit is interesting in that the
intricate carving on some of the work
could hardly have been done by the
primitive Indian without the modern
jack knife. while the basket work, more
especially, betrays the progress being
made by the copper colored denizens of
the pinerieS.

TEST ON CARRYING MAIL.
Roads Inclined to- Resist the Order
of the Department..

The Omaha road adds its name to the
list of other lines which have signified
their intention of carrying their own
mail in the baggage cars Of the COM
pany, and an official circular signed by
General Manager Burt has been issued
to this effect. The Omaha will, of
course, carry only such mail as relates
strictly to business affairs of the COM
pany. The circular instructs agents
and employees sending railway mail to
plainly mark the envelopes, and that
in cases where mail is sent to other
lines on business matters, to mark the
envelopes Joint Railway Business"
and to mark the names Of initials Of the
lines over which the joint mail is to be
transported. Nearly all of the roads
of the country have agreed to resist
the ruling Of the postoffice department,
and it Is expected that tests In court
may follow. The Wisconsin Central
and Santa Fe roads are among the few
lines in the country which have decided
to refuse joint railway mail, up to
date

gpenmanship adopted by the more advanced
public schools. and believing that the So.
called vertical system possesses many ID
Vantagesr over the slant system, we would
recommend Its introduction into tho Indian
schools.
Resolved, That we heartily indorse the ac-
ton of the president in extending the rules
of the civil service over positions OF the
Indian service, also the policy Of the depart
mentSin filling higher positions Of the service
by promotion OF persons Of ability and ex-
perience from the ranks.
Resolved, That We favor legislation that
will place the positions of Indian inspectors,
special agents, Gsuperintendents Of Indian
schools and agents in the field under the op-
Grafton OF the civil service laws
RESOLVED, That we consider frequent trans
fers injurious TO the service. and believe
that they should be made only for the best OF
reasons Further, that when made without
consultation or consent of the parties inter
ested, the Indian office should pay travelling
expenses or parties no transferred.
Resolved, That we duly appreciate the work
Of Superintendent Hailmann in compiling the
number and language syllabi for use at
Indian schools, and shat we tender him our
sincere thanksS fDr the same. ss,s4..s
Resolved, That we favor compulsory edu-
cation laws that will place all Indian children
in school, and that I'VE consider any restric-
lions, such as requiring consent Of parents,
In writing or otherwise, a direct blow to In
dian education.
Resolved, That we heartily commend the
work, both past and present OF the superin-
OI lHQlan SCHOOLS III raising the
standard OF the Indian service.
Resolved, That we tender our thanks to the
officers of this association for their, earnest
ana active iabors in arranging for and carry
Ing out the details Of this convention.
One OF the most important papers OF
the session was that of DIR. sTreon upon
the prevalence and causes of tuber-
culosis among the Indians of the
plains. The doctor said that the cause
was largely in the filthy condition of
the tepees and lodges, and the crowded
condition in which the Indians lived.
tuberculosis is contagious, and the
children of Indian parents are largely
afflicted with the disease. Common
precautions might prevent the spread
Of the disease. Miss Sarah r. Spencer
read paper upon the care and ar
rangement of dormitories, and sug-
gested many ways in which the living
apartments of the Indian children
might be made clean and comfortable.
DR.. Hailmann, superintendent of
Indian schools, who has had charge Of
the institute, is greatly pleased with
the success of the convention, and be-
lfeves much good will result there
from.

STOCK BARNS BURNED.
buildings on the Merriam Farm De-
stroyed by Fire.

Two large stock barns and two sheds. loca-
ted on the farm owned by W. r. Merriam
about seven miles from the city, on the Still
water road, were destroyed by fire yesterday
afternoon. The farm is rented by John Hoff-
man, who for the past four years has occu-
pied the place. The fire was first discov-
cred in one of the barns, and as there was no
means Of getting water to extinguish the
flames, building after building was licked up
by the fire. Fortunately there was little wind
and the dwelling house and another small
building, used as chicken house, escaped
destruction. The buildings and house were
insured by the owner. w. R. Merriam, for
$1,000, which. 1t is estimated, will cover the
loss in this direction. Hoffman however, had
only $3.50 worth of insurance on farm ma
chinery and about the same amount on the
contents in the barns. His loss is estimated
at S., 600. One hundred and fifty tons of hay
were burned, and ten hogs, together with a
number of farming implements, buggies and
wagons, went up in smoke.

was good. Outside of the hotels, board
ing houses and vacant buildings, 1t Is
expected that at least 1900 visitors will
be accommodated in the homes of the
Third ward. The ladies committee,
Mrs. DR.. Mcdonald, Misses Josie
Lowenstein, Hendy and Brady, have
been doing most excellent work, and
the gentlemen present were loud in
their praise of the ladies' successful
efforts. The canvassers expressed sor-
row that they had found a few prom
inent citizens, having large houses, who
refuse to take any guests during the
encampment; but the number is very
small
The matter of decorating the business
houses and the homes of the ward is
being pushed at present, and indica-
lions are that very favorable show
ing will be made. Two weeks from
last night meeting will be held to
take the final steps to put the Third
ward right in line.
The members of the police depart
ment have each subscribed 81 each to-
ward the G. A. r. encampment fund
and the members, not satisfied with
this, have decided to arm themselves
with subscription books and solicit
funds for the finance committee.
The Grand Army committee yester-
day received notice that four carloads
Of veterans had already arranged to
come from Massachusetts to st. Paul
during the encampment, and it is like
ly that the delegation will be increased
later on.
The finance committee is preparing a
special letter to be sent out over the
personal signature of Chairman Schef-
fer to every member of the main COM
mittee, and all the subcommittee as
we'll. The letter will define the duties Of
the various committees and appeal to
the members for immediate and vigor-
out action, stating that the work must
be completed with greater rapidity in
order that the finance committee may
know how much it has to spend on the
encampment.
