In diplomatic circles it is surmised that
Emperor Williams dignity was injured
IN some manner, probably by the firm
attitude assumed in the face of the re-
monstrances to the powers of Germany,
and hence the extreme proposal to block
ede the Piraeus, which was urged by his
majesty with unusual vehemence
through the ambassador here upon the
European cabinets.
The Marquis Of alisbury, without any
hesitation, pi omptly declined the em-
peroris proposition, saying that public

from the common forests; to stack
their tents where they pleased; to
hunt or work and appropriate the COM
mon reserve as freely as the fish use
the sea. This was their old time and
natural way OF doing things. II
violates every principle of the rights
of property and was correspondingly
conducive to savagery. 1t is the
desire Of the Government to get them
entirely out of this state and to make
them citizens.
One Of the means to this end is to
divide up the reservations that they
have held in common and to allot the
lands in severalty. That is, to give
each Indian a homestead, mark it off
by distinct boundary lines, require him
to build a house on it, teach him to
cultivate it, and in various ways help
him along until he is able to support
himself and his family upon it. OF
course the Indians have to be suffi-
ciently advanced to be willing to do this
before it can be done with any degree
of success. A portion of land is allot-
ted to every man, woman and child.

finding the land around belonging to

The Fort Berthold reservation is on
both sides of the Missouri River in the
northern part of North Dakota. It
contains about n million and quarter
acres and is as far from civilizations
haunts as any similar sized piece OF
ground outside of Africa. The nearest
railroad train passes by nearly a hun
dred miles away. The nearest tele-
graph instrument ticks ut the same dis
tance. The agency employs few
white men who have married squaws,
and missionary or two are the only
whites on the reservation.
There are three tribes on this reser-
vation, the Gros Ventres, the Mandans
and the Arickarees. There is sub
tribe of Gros Ventres known as the
band of Grow Flies High. They long
ago cut loose from all other Indians.
They had to be brought with troops
from their mountain fastnessess down
to the reservation. They call them
selves "Hoshkis" (huskies), which
means ''bad lands" They still refuse
to affiliate with any other tribe.
1t was to this unreconstructed band
that had to make allotments. Grow
Flies High had been deposed as chief
and Long Bull put in his place. Old
Grow now calls himself Chief Medicine
man. He still has great influence and
is said to use all of it for the bad.
The Indian chiefs are great sticklers
for dignity. Grow Flies High has n
superabundance. The first time his
band came dowr to have council
with me he assumed marshalship OF
them although Long Bull, dressed in
full regimentals, was spokesman. They
halted their horses and wagons within
a few hundred yards of my camp and
sent me word that they were ready fol
the conference. l replied that was
at my 'tepee" and would be verypleased
to receive them. Grow insisted that ]
should come to him and it was only
after an hour or two's parleying that

band to take an allotment without 60
, ing for him with horse and buggy
and giving him his dinner to come.
Most of these "Hoshkis" are hun
ters, fishers, warriors, sports. They
> are great jumpers, runners, boxers
wrestlers. They have supreme ant
lofty contempt for an Indian who will
spend his time working 'just like (
white man." They believe in the SOW
ereignity Of leisure. Wherever Grove

When I was allotting lands to In
dians in North Dakota / lived in tents
out on the Fort Barthold reservation
about hundred miles from railroad
or n civilized settlement.
With me was surveying corps in
cluding several Indians and an Irish
man, German, n Spaniard and mem
Der of one of the first families of Vir-
ginia. We joyously entertained any
body who chanced to come by our way
without regard to his present or pre-
vious condition.
One day boastful stranger hauled
mp, with hungry look, in front of our
dining tent and without so much as
"good morning" for n preface, sprang
of his horse aud remarked:
"a big syndicate is paying me 50 a
day and expenses to sell land-no diff
ference what 1 get for it or whether /
sell it at all or not"
He seemed about to follow this an
nouncement of his importance by ask
ing the price of bite when re-
piled:
''Picket your bronco and sit down
to feast. This surveying crowd con
trolls oil the country. 1 am working
for bigger syndicate than you are and
itpayp me bigger wages than you get
just to give land away"
The invitation needed no repetition,
but the statement that / was being
paid to give land away required con.
siderable explanation to tho visitor.
And the explanation may not be with
out interest to you.

made low it is cut at tho line of per-
forations, when high the back portion
Of the yoke is faced onto the lining,
but the front portion is cut separate,
scanned at the right shoulder and
finished at the edge and left shoulder
where it closes invisibly. The full
portion OF the fronts is shaped onto
the lining, the right side tapping over
and closing invisibly at the left. Under
arm cores separate them from the back
which has the material applied at the
line of perforations, and the fulness
drawn down to the belt Mt the waist
line. The sleeves are snug-fitting but
slightly mousquetaire above the elbows
and terminating in small puffs at the
shoulders. As .shown the material is
pearl-gray cashmere with yoke OF pas
sementerie edged with velvet ribbon
and frills of soft, gray silk muslin.
Both neck and waistband are of gray
velvet ribbon and at both throat and
wrists are frills of the muslin. When
worn low the yoke and sleeves are
omitted. The neck is finished, as pre-
ferred, and frills only are worn at the
shoulders.

distinctive tract all his own. He is
thereby taught the law Of inheritance.
The desire at onces comes to him to
leave to his children an inheritance at
least as good as that which was left to
him. He sees other Indians all
around him cultivating their farms
and earning for themselves the COM
forts Of life. A healthful rivalry is
thus established and ambition pre-
viously unfelt is fostered.
The Dawes bill, under which allot-
ments are made, provides that the In
dian shall become q citizen with all

their tepee homes to show me as the
pride OF the camp'--the only two chill
dren in the band that had been sent
off to school--were Ms gentle and pretty
as Indian girls should be.
I induced them TO decide to be "good
Indians" and there is hope in their
future.
They had heretofore refused to take
allotments. They signifed their will
ingness to me, but they were'very slow
TO put IL into execution. When one
came for his allotment, frequently, he
talked about this way "What can I
get?" He was given great variety Of
land TO select from. ''I want none Of
that" said he. 'Is there any special
piece that can't have?" lie was told
of the portions already allotted or re-
served. "Then," he would cry trium-
phantly, al want that or nothingl"
and the allotting agent had real nice
time changing this notion.
The average Indians god is his din
ner. In influence with him the "Great
Spirit" does not play even poor sec
ond. You may fail to get him to agree
to anything else, but il you will invite
him to meal he will foresake all
things and come with you. Then you
have at least a fair opportunity to rea-
son with him and drill your persuasive

ness-and there are many such--is To
select au allotment, he gets his pony,
rides over the land, decides upon the
neighborhood in which he desires to
live and then picks out the special
tract that he wants with view TO its
water supply, its nearness to wood OF
coal mines, its meadows, its plow
ground and all Of its conveniences.
His decision once made stands, and il
is usually good. Too frequently. how
ever, he selects piece Of land that
isn't good for thing in the wide,
wide world. After the nllotting agent
tried in vain TO induce him to select q
better, he always comes TO Mark
Twain's conclusion that ''if he wants
