India's Hoard of Specie.

For q long period OF years India has
been characterized as "sinkhole" OF
the precious metals, or, in other words,
there has been for many years con-
tinuous flow of the precious metals
gold and silver-into India, where they
have to large extent disappeared, un-
doubtedly by burial underground for
the purpose of boarding and conceal
ment. The motive for this under the
mogul and native rulers was unques-
tionably to escape direct plumber or con-
fiscation, but under British rule these
boards, amounting unquestionably to
many hundreds Of millions, are not tax
ed, mainly by reason of their inaccessi-
bility, and partly by the recognized pol
icy Of the government to avoid direct
taxation of active capital, and encour-
age, by making safe its employment,
the tendency of these buried treasures
to come to light and enter into the
channels of trade
That this policy has been wise one
is shown by the fact that within recent
years there has been an increasing dis
position on the part Of the Indian own
ers of concealed treasures, especially
the Indian princes or rajahs, to with
draw them from their boarding places
and invest them in government bonds
or other desirable, interest bearing Sc.
curities, and in this way very great
addition to the worlds active stock, the
money metals, may be anticipated in
the perhaps not distant future. -Popu-

HE HAC A CLOSE CALL.
Major General Miles Thrilling Encounte,
With Lame Deer.


Probably the closest call Gemeral
Miles ever had in all his experience as
an Indian fighter was that in his en-
counter with Lame Deer. 1t was In
1877, when he was still q colonel dur
ing his campaign against the Sioux and
other hostile tribes in the northwest.
Lame Deer and his outlaws had been
making trouble in Dakota, and Colonel
Miles raided their village. He tells the
rest Of the story in his personal recollec-
lions thus:
'In the surprise and excitement of
the wild onset of the charge a group Of
warriors was forced away from the rest.
Before making the attack l had ordered
our Sioux and Cheyenne Indians to call
out to the Lame Deer Indians that if
they threw down their arms end sur
rendered we would spare their lives. AS
we galloped up TO this group of warriors
they apparently recognized the purport
of the demand and dropped their arms
ON the ground. In order to assure them
Of our good will l called out, "How
how-kola" (meaning friend), and eN,

which he grasped, and in a few seconds
more would have secured him and the
others, as, although he was wild and
trembling with excitement, my adju-
tant, George w. Baird, was doing the
same with the head warrior, Iron Star.
Unfortunately just at that time one
Of our white scouts rode up and joined
the group Of officers and soldiers with
me. He had more enthusiasm than dis
erection and, Ipresume, desired to insure
my safety, as he drew up his rife and
covered the Indian with it. Lame Deer
saw this and evidently thought the
young scout was going to shoot him.
