STUDYING THE INDIANS.
Work of DR.. Boaz and DIR. Farrand
In British Columbia
Trying to Ascertain Origin of Coast
Indians and Whether They Arc
Connected with the ASH
attic Coast.

DR.. Franz Boaz, who for ten years has
been making Il study of British Column
biu Indians for the British association
and who also heads the expedition
which the American museum of natural
history sent out last spring. is again
in Victoria, b. c., with DR.. Farraud, who
is also engaged in the work of collect
ing information about the Indians. He
came down from the north on the steam
er Tees.
Since last year the two scientists have
covered an immense territory, first go
Ing to the interior of the province and
then coming out TO the northern coast.
The work in the north was largely de-
voted to the physical types of the alb
oriSines and measurements, casts and
photographs were taken, which will be
the subject of later investigation. DR..
Farrand made IL study of the customs
and traditions of the Chilknt Indians
Mt Port Essington. DR.. Boaz paid par
ticular attention to the art, paintings
and carvings of Indians, cndcavoring to
tdthom their meaning. While at Rivers
1nlct study Of the native language WAS
made. At Bella Bella Mr.. Farrand gath
cictt MUCH lHlOTIulllOu us 10 Scrldi or
ganization and family history. Incl
dcntally, II number of specimens were
secured, but information was what was
principally sought. The work done In
the interior was continuation of tho
work OF the British association, which
they have been carrying on since 1887.
when DR.. Boaz made his first visit. whlo
that on the coast was prosecuted for the
American museum of natural history
Mt New York. Morris X. Jcssup, presi-
dent of the museum, bearing the cost.
The idea is to ascertain the origin OF
the coast Indians and whether any re-
lationship exists between them and ma
tivcs OF the Asiatic coast.
Study will be made of Indians from
the Columbia river to Hchring straits
and down along the Asiatic coast 10
lower Siberia. From what is known of
the traditions and customs of natives
Of the two coasts, DIR. Boaz is convinced
that they are related, and that the first
Indians on this side of the Pacific camo
from Siberia.
The scientists will be there again next
summer and probably for many sum-
mcrs more before the vast field is COW
cred.

Some of the big athletic clubs whose
athletic committees arc always on the

present form it halls from Canada,
where it has been played IN n quiet

syndicate of French capitalists pro-
poses. And high engineering talent
has pronounced the proposition FEAST

To make the Broadway of the sea ia
the joint plan of an Italian named Car
vello and Il Frenchman named Lemieux
Public experiments have been made
by them at the mouth of the River
Seine, near the ocean, which seem TO
demonstrate that success is possible.
Sig. Carvello has invented n ship which
in this instance will serve Il novel pur-
pose. Its framework consists entirely
of steel tubes covered with quarter
inch meshes. which are filled in with
concrete, rubbed smooth to diminish
liquid friction.
AS the bird flies the distance between
lIavre, France, and New York city is
1900 miles. A sailor in the mast of one
vessel can see ut n distance of 80 miles
the Inasts of any vessel which may hap
pen to be at that distance. Bearing in
mind these facts, this enterprising syn
dictate proposes TO construct from 60
to rs ships built on the plan of Car
vello and fitted with great scarchlights
and station them so miles apartin an al
most direct line across the Atlantic.
But instead of moving about from place
to place each is TO be supplied with
eight immense cables of woven steel
wire similar to those upon which hangs
the Brooklyn bridge, but smaller.
Three of these cables will hang from
, each side of the vessel and the other
two from front and rear. all at angles
of 45 degrees with the ships sides, and
each will be fastened by immense an
chors to the nearest ocean bottom that
can be discovered by sounding. There
will thus be established n straight line
of stationary ships directly across the
ocean and at regular intervals of prob
ably so miles.

How Cyclones Acct n,cyc,ea

1t has remained for the French to
study the resisting power which the BIZ
cycle has in storm and to produce an
interesting photograph of bicycle and
rider as they appeared when caught
in furious whirlwind. During recent
tempests number of bicyclists were
caught on the highways. and, although
few machines were wrecked, they
were of the cheapest grades. bicycles
of the best make showed remarkable
powers of resistance. They were bent
into all sorts of shapes, but they did
not break.

RARE MANUSCRIPTS TO BE USED
Valuable Feature of the New Com
EreaaiOnnI Library.


Gressionnl Library.
Librarian Young, of the national Ii
brary, is organizing his force in such a
way as to make the library of congress
one of the best in the world. For years
there have been in the old library tons
of precious American manuscripts, of
whose existence most people were un-
aware. They were kept in n room
which was always locked. and for ten
years, it is said, only two persons have
been in it.
Now an intelligent effort is to be
made under Librarian Young's direc-
ton to make these manuscripts OF use
and value to the literary world. DR..
Herbert Friedenwald. of Philadelphia,
has been appointed superintendent of
the manuscript department at the con-
gressional library. The office pays
$1,000 year, and is most important
one. DR.. FTiedenwald is n member Of
the Historical Society of Philadelphia,
and has been student of American his
tory under Prof. John Bach McAIaster.
Mrs. Milton Il. Harrison. of Chicago,
has been appointed assistant cata-
loguer.

a unique case growing out of the
suicide of Capt: George Lowenthal has
Just terminated in the law courts at

to furnish money to the latter, who was
roue ard gambler. on condition that
he either marry the daughter of n mil
lionaire or commit suicide after the ex-
piration of two years from the time of
entering upon the agreement.
Emil then heavily insured Georges
life in various companies and had in
serted in the policies a clause declar-
ing that they would not Ec affected
after two years by the manner in which
the insured should meet his death.
George failed in his attempts to in
veiglc rich mans daughter to marry
him. and upon the eXpira ION of the
two years he kept the other part of
his agreement and blew out his brains
with revolver.
Then Emil applied for the payment
of the policies on his brothers life, but
the companies had learned q the agree
meut he had made with George and re-
fused TO pay their losses. Later they
caused his arrest on the cturge of hav-
ing fraudulently secured the reversion
OF some Of the policies.
The trial, which has jus. concluded,
resulted in the conviction of the ac-
cuscd. and he was sentenced to two
years imprisonment. 1t appears TINT

Map of the Kootenai.

The most complete and artistic map
of the rich mining region of the Koo-
tenai and adjacent territory in Wash
ington and British Columbia, has lust
been published by the Northern Pacific
railway. It is just what is needed by
those going to that country or who de-
sire to study and know about it.
The map is made in relief, is 25x1S
inches in size between borders and has
in connection with ton the same
page-two smaller maps that show the
relation of the region to the world at
at large.
The principal drainage of the coun-
try is laid down in blue, the trails and
roads are shown, the railways plainly
indicated, the names of Important
towns printed in large black letters.
and the topography is represented in
brown. AS far as the ore deposits are
known they are indicated in q general
way by red lettering.
The country shown upon the map
includes particularly, the Slpcan, Koo-
tenai lake, Cariboo creek, Deer Park.
Nelson, Salmon river, Trail or Rossland
and the Boundary creek regions. It
shows the Arrow lakes and the Lar
deau country and some portions of the
Okanogan region.
The map is compiled from reliable
and official data and shows the mining
district subdivisions and the eleva-
tions of the mountains and lakes.
The opposite of the sheet contains
an accurate statement and decription
of the country, showing it's discovery
and development to the present time

National Educational Association Meeting
For the meeting of National Educa-
tional association at Buffalo in 1896 the
excellent service given by the Union
Pacific was commented ON by all those
who had the pleasure of using that
line. This year our educational friends
meet in Milwaukee, Wis, July 9th to
9th, and others from points west of the
Missouri river should by all means
take the Union Pacific.
The service of the Union Pacific via
Omaha or Kansas City is the very best.
The equipment consists of handsome
day coaches, chair ars, Pullman buffet
and drawing room sleepers, dining
cars and buffet smoking and library
cars. Fewer changes than via any
other line. One fare plus $3.50 for the
round trip will be the rate from all
points west of the Missouri river for
this meeting.
