A Bowling Tourney.

The bowling clubs of this city,
six or more in number, are consid-
ering the question of inaugurating
bowling tournment to occupy the
evenings for the rest of the sum-
mer, and extending into the fall.
There are the Casino, Turner's,
Beethovens, Missions, Ivys, Som
mer's Gardens, Hayseeds, Linn
burgers Gardens, and others.
These clubs can play a series of
eight games each, with the eight
clubs, making total of sixty-four
games, the finals to be played on
neutral alleys, to be chosen by
vote.
The Idea is becoming popular,
and arrangements will no doubt be
soon completed.

INCREASE OF RED MEN.
Although They Have Good schools There
Are Many Blanket Indians


The reservations are too small to per-
NIT the old, wide-ranging Indian habits,
and the red men are compelled to live
in localities entirely unsuited to- the
wild customs of their forefathers.
Through this changed condition, it has
frequently been said the Indian will
rapidly die out; but information re-
ceived at the Indian bureau shows this
is an error. There are now about 300,-
600 Indians in the United States, and it
is evident that they are increasing in
numbers.
People may differ as to the past treat
ment of the Indians, and as to whether
it was right to take from them the vast
empire now occupied by the millions
of thriving, industrious whites, but it
has been done, and no one can doubt
that it now rests upon us to give the In
dian an occupation which will take the
place of that former rowing life which he
has lost.
We have compelled him to make way
for civilization; he must be civilized in
order to become self-supporting in the
SohNlolouo lolNCu vi <tluouS luC
things which we give him are schools,
in which $4,000 Indian children are now
being taught. These schools are of
three NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. boarding
schools and day schools.
Chief among the non-sectarian board
ing-schools is the large school at Car
Isle, Pa. Here $50 Indian boys and girls
are taught those branches which our
own children learn in grammar and
high school, During portions of the
year these children are hired out to the
good people of Pennsylvania in places
where they are required to work on
farms and in private families.
This, of course, is great help to the
young Indians. 1t gives them an insight
into practical life, and teaches them
how to act for themselves. The children
in school like this are fitting not sim
ply to go back on the reservations, but
TO scatter throughout the United States
and take their chances with the rest of
our citizens. They are taught how to
work and support themselves by labor,
and this is lesson which every child
should learn, whether red, white or
black
Progress is being made by many of the
Indians. Some of them now teach In
dian schools; some follow various me-
chanical pursuits; and many more
readily learn to watch and herd cattle.
But blanket" Indians are still to be
found in very great numbers.
BY blanket Indians we mean those
who do not wear citizens clothes, but
who are clad in buckslin shoes and leg
gings, and wrap themselves in great
blankets instead of wearing coats and
vests, while some of them in warm
weather wear scarcely any clothing at
all.
Many of them still know nothing Of
civilization or of Christianity. Their
religious ceremonies are too often still
heathenish, and they are regardless of
marriage ties.-Secretary Hoke Smith,
in Youths Communion

ALeINo BIRDS AND BEASTS.
The idea That They Were Barren Seems
/ to Have Been Erroneous.

The idea That They Were Barren Seems
to Have Been Erroneous.
w. L. Bruce, of Yankton, S. D., re-
ports that while hunting 25 miles
northwest of Yankton along the st.
James river, he shot two albino quail
from a flock normally colored. They
were larger than the ordinary bird, Of
q cream color, specified with brown,
but so dimly as to appear pure white
at a short distance. Some years ago
an old quail with 10 young, all albinos,
were reported from California by a cor
respondent of the same paper. Many
individual albino quail are reported
and a few albino ruffed grouse. The
London Field lately noted the finding Of
albino and pied rocks, crows and black
birds, and white house marten. 1t
also told about white badger that was
taken in weasel trap short time ago.
A pure white deer and a notified one
were reported killed on WILDLY island,
In Puget sound, lately. Three or more
white wild turkeys are known to have
been killed during the past Is years.
One bird in Tennessee was known as
the "Old White Witch Turkey" He
may not have been bright bird natu-
rally. but it wasn't very long after he
was Matched that he learned that being
white was not all comfort. The hen
turkeys liked him exceedingly, and one
Of his offspring, gray bird, was killed
in 1882, while others of light color were
seen. Hundreds of bullets were fired
at the witch bird, but without success.
and he probably died natural death
in some out-of-the-way clump OF
bushes.
For many years albinos were thought
to be barren, but observation has proved
this to be erroneous. One, q female
robin, reared a brood of young for Two
successive seasons up the Hudson, and
a number of other robins were seen at
landing young in the vicinity during
two or three mating seasons, the young
being often oddly colored. Albino
robins ami. squirrels are most ire
quently seen of the small creatures,
while deer are the most numerous OF
larger albinos. An albino moose was
mover seen.-Forest and Stream.

SHORT STOPS.
What the People Are Saying.

What the People Are Saying.
Every day adds to the interest
in the coming political campaign,
and the people are discussing the
situation as to our local affairs.
VIII we have a repetition OF past
experiences, is the universal ques-
ton.
National politics will excite
more than ordinary interest, be.
cause OF the financial issue and the
protection feature as involved in
the campaign.
Upon the financial issue our
community Is for sound money
by two-thirds majority, and the
republican party organized and
equipped with good local ticket
can be certain Of victory in Nov
ember.
But, as usual, corterie OF Office
holders and office seekers will
attempt to run our county politics
regardless OF national issues. Com
bines are the great aim of our local
office hunters; they care nothing
about the momentous issues before
the American people, so they can
secure place and power.
The question is, shall this large
and intelligent community con-
tinue under the dictation and con-
troll OF few self-constituted local
bosses, or shall they take the power
into their own hands and make
their own tickets?
Are the good citizens of either
political party willing to have
their home affairs turned over to
the local combines for all time to
come? 1t does seem ridiculous
that a couple of combines should
decide to test at the ballot box
which shall be put in Office to
handle our taxes and conduct our
affairs.
1t has come to q fine pass when
no man can hope for office, or dare
become a candidate unless he can
get into q combine and submit to
an assessment that means financial
ruin unless the combine is success
full.
Is 1t not high time that the peo-
pie through the agency Of party or
ganization, asserted their preroga-
tive of nominating candidates for
local offices.
Theiindictment ofiMsyor Elmen.
dorf by the grand jury for a crime
alleged committed as the chief ex-
ecutive of the city, has caused In
dignation and modification among
the people, especially when this
Indictment is charged to q local
political combine. This indict-
ment is swung above the head Of
the mayor to force him into or out
of q combine.
Mayor Elmendorf owes it to him
self and to the people to insist
upon the fullest investigation, and
no compromise with his political
opponents. Let them understand
that no such desperate methods
will prevail.
or course, these indictments, like
others of similar nature in the
post, will die on the threshold of
justice, but Mayor Elmendorf
should insist that they be stran.
gled in the jury box, and not be
used as q stick to crack his head
with in the coming election.
No good citizen would impair
the integrity of our grand jury
system or have it's healthful infiu-
ence destroyed, but no grand jury
should be used as political ma
chine, and 1t should be demon
strated in the present instance
whether this Is so or not. The
grand jury itself has reputation at
stake, and should demand full in
vestigation.
Is it q fact, that even our grand
