INDIANS IN CONNECTICUT
The Census Returns Give the Number
 Over Two Hundred

The Census Returns Give the Number Over Two Hundred.
 Mcdonald Thurman of Ramsey, Sum-
 ter county, s. C., writes to the Norwich Record as follows:
 The following statistics about the h. dian population of Connecticut may be entertaining to your readers who are interested in such things, but do not take the time to look them up. I get the figures from the admirable compen- dium of the eleventh census.
 In 1870 the Indian popula ton of Con- necticut was put down as 295, ten years later it was 255 and seven years ago it was 22s, In 1870 and 1890, Indians were returned from every county except Tol- land, and in 1880 Indians were returned from every county; there were four put down for Holland county. The follow ing was the return of Indians by coun- ties of Connecticut, as given in the census of 1890: Fairfield. .31; Hartford '17; Litchfield, 13; Fairfield 31; Hart ford. IT; Litchfield, 13; Middlesex, 5; New Haven, 25; New London. 1O5; Windham, 32, making a total of 228
 It will be noticed that New London county, in the above table, has larger indian population than the other coun- ties. This was also the case in 1870 and 1880; in the former year New London county had Al and in the census of 1880 she had 147
 While I am on the subject of the Con- nectcut Indians, I will add that the Eliphalet Fielding (who I suppose is still living) would be an in- teresting person to any Indianologist, for not only is he descended from Sas- sacus. the great Pequot sachem, but he is also descended from the distin- guished Occum family. I may also call attention to the fact that it is not quite fifteen years since Sam Rrushell. said to be descendant of the great Sachem uncas, was laid to his last resting place in Yantic cemetery.

or every one of His promises. But the fortunate thing about 1t all is that God IS not lawyer. Jesus was not a law yer nor a professor, but a carpenter. Indeed, 1t sometimes seems as though the whole case between God and the world hinged on that one fact-that Jesus was carpenter. a mechanic, a plain mana man who uses language not to conceal His meaning, but to make 1t plain. God Is a God of com mon sense. Every contract and cove nant He ever made with man is prac- tical, taking into consideration the req sonable limitations of the case. He knew us when He made the covenants. Did He make them to mock us? Other rulers might, other Gods might-this God even as men sometimes see Him. but not the carpenter. That man was, beyond all question, not that kind"

 A change in the plans of the manage mentof the Yale football eleven will re- suit in summer practice after all. Ow- ing to the disability of Captain "Jim" Rodgers. Half back Hamilton Fish will been appointed temporary captain. It was al first expected that the candi- dates for the eleven would report here September 20 for preliminary practice. This plan has been considerably modi- fled and the training for the team will begin to-day. The leading as- pirants for positions behind the line will report at Washington, D. C., and will begin drilling under the eyes of Frank Butterworth, who was formerly Yale's winning full-back. He will train the boys hard for ten days
