nave possessed for thousands Of years.
Missionaries have never succeeded In
making any impression upon them. and
they have been given up as a lost cause
long ago. One of the old traditions in
regard to their origin is that they emf
grated to this continent when it was
still joined to Asia at point where the
Behring straits are now located. The
Kwaloiutls have no money, but use
blankets as a means of currency. All
the money that seal spearers are paid
by the captains of the schconers is
Immediately exchanged for blankets
at the nearest supply station
Marriages between them are az
ranged on the purchase system, and
certain number of blankets is paid for
a woman, yA-ving according to the
station her father occupies in the tribe.
AT the annual festivities the headman,
or chief of the village, impersonates
the Supreme Spirit, and the other lead
ing tribesmen are gods. All the men
aspire TO be gods, but they can come
into that enviable position only by
marrying the eldest daughter OF man
who holds the Office which he desires
TO fill. A squaw whose father occupies
a high religious position in the tribe is
a great catch according to the views
OF all the other men.
While the sugar-loaf head is one OF
the characteristics OF the tribe of tie
Kwakiutls, it is generally artifcislly
ACQUIRED. Soon after a child is born
its head is tightly wrapped IN BAN
dapes and compressed toward the top.
When the bones of the skull are per
manently shaped the bandage is re-
moved and the sugar-loaf head exposed
TO view. The most pointed and elon-
gated heads are considered the most
fashionable. One strange circumstance
is that this artificial deformity does not
impair them mentally or physically. SO
far as that doctrine holds good for semi
savageS.
The American Museum of Natural
History in New York has devoted a sec
ton to an exhibition OF artificial fig
ures of Pacific coast Indians. and among
these will be shown a group Of Kwaki.
utI Indians. DR.. Franz Boas, who has
had charge of this work. has spent some
time among these Indians, and the
plaster cast groups have been prepared
under his direction. The figures will
be shown working at various industries
common among them, and completed
specimens OF their handiwork will be
exhibited in connection with them

THE PNEU IN PARIS.
An Aggregate of 67s,oec Bicycles In
France.

II YOU want to see real bicycling
:raze you must go to Paris. A CORE
spondent SAYS that nearly everybody IL
the city is now a rider of the "pneu,
pronounced new" the French slang
name for the wheel, being an abbrevia,
ton of the word pneumatique. Parcels
are delivered from stores and shops
bv messengers on two-wheel machines;
oil the morning and the evening news
papers are carried from the printing
presses to the stands and libraries by
wheelmen; people make visits on bi-
cycles; they go to the horse races on
them; at the theaters, the Palais de In
dustrie, the horse show, the agricuL
tural fair, the dog show, in the Tuil-
leries garden, at the circuses, the cafe
concerts and the clubhouses, etc, there
are special sheds or platforms wherein
"pneus" are guarded while the riders
are enjoying the SHOW" taking their
refreshments or attending to business
matters.
There are actually over 67o,ooo bf
cycles owned and ridden In the French
republic Last year tho number o.
"cartes de circulation" issued TO anna.
teurs and professionals by the chief o;
police in Paris was just under 47.0oe
for that city alone, and these permits
to ride through the streets by no meanf
incluied all persons who own machines
as g great many keep their ''pneus" Out
in the bois, or near the Notifications
where they go in carriages when they
want to get their wheels out for ride
But everywhere in France, in towr
or in country. there are three positive
rules which bicyclists must obey. and
these are: There must be signal bel
or whistle on every machine; at night
they must carry lighted lamp or Ian
tern, and every person on bicycle must
keep out of the way of horses and car
riages.-Meriden Journal.

sCALPERs' TICKETS AT DENVER
Overland People at Omaha Deny RESPONSE
hilit1.

Omaha, Neb., Feb. 27.-At Union Paci-
flc headquarters today much interest
was manifested in the report in the
morning Associated Press dispatches in
regard the number of tickets found in
the hands Of Denver scalpers. BY au-
thority of the general passenger agent,
ii was given out that the Overland was
doing all in its power and the passen-
ger agreements were lived up to and
nothing is being done that would have
a tendency to demoralize traffic rates.
He was sure that if any Union Pacific
tickets were improperly in Denver seal
pers' hands they were parts of tickets
used from San Francisco east which
tourists had disposed of over which the
Overland could exercise no control.

HEALY's PLAN FOR IRELAND
Strong Measures Advocated IL the Liberals
Fail to Aid When in Power

London, Feb. 27.-Tmothy Healy, in
addressing the Irish National Fedora
ton at Dublin today, accused John Dill
Ion of getting himself elected to the
craftsmanship of the party by intrigue
and in disregard OF the feeling of the
country. His position, however, Mr..
Healy continued. entitled him 10 for
bearance as long as he kept within the
broad lines of policy. Mr. Healy would
rather see Ireland governed as a crown
colony, he said, than as it was now
governed.
"If, when the Liberals are returned
to power" he added, nothing is done
for home rule, the Irish members should
provoke our expulsion from parliament
After a few years of governing Ire
land without represent atives at West
minister, fear would probably induce
England to grant some kind of national
council, which would eventually broad
en- into an Irish parliament"

publics, ii being judged that such step
would prevent the three governments
from helping each other.
General Ortiz was then a fugitive in
Guatemala; but when the matter was
Investigated by the Nicaraguan govern
ment, the facts stated were found TO be
correct and a quantity of arms and am
munition intended for; the conspirators
were found concealed in warehouses at
Corinto.
There is also a rumor that Costa
Rica may take advantage of the rebel
lion to settle some Of the old quarrels
which have existed for years between
that republic and Nicaragua, regarding
principally, the route of the Nicaragua
canal and the rights of Costa Rica I'M
der the concessions granted to the
American company. In any case the
situation is most critical, not only for
Nicaragua, but for all the Central
American republics, and the presence of
United States warships on the coasts
would DO great deal of good and could
certainly do no harm.
FIRST BLOOD FOR ZELAYA.
The government forces commenced
an advance upon the departments in
revolt against President Zelaya, with
out standing on the defensive and wait
ing for the expected attack Of the Leon
lists.
The town Of Naragote was attacked
and taken by storm by the government
troops this morning. This town is
near the western shore of Lake Mana
qua, and only few miles from the bor-
der of the department Of the Occiden-
