Indian Anttnnities

The Smithsonian institution owns
the Hallett Phillips collection of In
dian implements and antiquities
from the Potomac valley. 1t is re-
puted the largest single collection of
its class in the world, and it's value
is greatly enhanced by the careful
arrangement and record of individ-
ual specimens. The collection con-
sists of over 10000 pieces, principal
" spear and arrow heads, stone
knives, hammers and scrapers, frag:
ments of pottery and soapstone uten-
sils.
Mr.. Phillips had made a lifelong
study of prehistoric man in the At
lantic tidewater region. In his opin-
ion, which is accepted as authority
by the Smithsonian scientists, Wash
ington was not the first capital on
the banks of the Potomac. The site,
owing to the great advantage in con-
-nection with stone quarries and the
river fisheries, was the headquarters
Of the great Algonquin nfederacy,
the most powerful Of the Indian ma
tons on the Atlantic coast. It was
with these Indians that Captain John
Smith first came in contact on his
initial voyage up the Potomac, and
his memoirs contain an account of a
fight with the Indians in their prin-
cipal village on the site of what is
now Anacostia, a suburb of Washing

The Pioneer Alaska railway is the North
ern Pacific, and to that company belongs
the credit, in connection with the Pacific
Coast Steamship Co., of having the sale of
through tickets to points in Alaska. The
Northern Pacific was the first railway to
issue map of Alaska showing the inland
passage from Puget Sound to Sitka,
Juneau and Chi1kat,
Those intending to go to Alaska early
next spring, after the SHOWS on the Dyea
and Skaguay passes are packed down and
the lakes frozen, or at later date either
via this route or via St. Michae1s and the
mouth of the Yukon, should remember
that the Northern Pacific is the Pioneer
Alaska Line; runs steamheated trains
with dining cars, Pullman standard and
tourist sleepers from St. Paul to Tacoma,
Seattle, or Butte City, the latter the great
est silver mining gap in the world, also
via Lake Pend D'Orei11e, Idaho, or through
the famous Occur D'A1ene country.

A Parting Shot.

A young girl was taken in to din
ner by solicitor, who probably,
considering her too youthful for it
to be worth his while to make him
self agreeable, barely spoke a single
word to her during the meal. It so
happened that she had before din
ner asked him to explain the differ
ence between a barrister and So
licitor, which he did by telling her
that, as the latter was not permitted
to speak in court, the former had
always to be employed for the pur-
pose. At the conclusion Of dinner,
as the ladies were leaving the room,
she sarcastically addressed him in
the following words: What a pity,
Mr.. K, you omitted to bring your
barrister with you this evening"

He had been to see her father.
J, Itis hardly necessary here to state
what the object of his visit was.
Whatever it was may be guessed
when the reader isapprised that the
visitor was 25 and the daughter OF
the father was FIVE years younger.
He had returned to her and she
had met him in fear and trembling,
for the youth was poor and their
hearts happiness depended upon
how much papa could be coaxed
into allowing them as a wedding
portion.
In fact, without that there was no
happiness, for happiness is scarcely
possible on ST. per week.

It was the first time she had ever
seen him thus and her heart sank.
She could not understand. The tears
came to her eyes and she put her
arms about his neck.
"What did you ask him, Haroldl"

II asked him how much he was

SCVOOI REFORMS.

III Mayor Van Wyck il not careful ne VIII
himself be thought one of those hated REFORM
crs He SAYS he Is going 10 advertise Tor nrst-
class men who can give up all their time 10 the
schools. The present School Commissioners,
who draw no salary. are reputable BUSINESS
men. who cannot afford to neglect their own
affairs utterly. and he Is persuaded we nave not
such perfect schools as would be obtained under
men who had absolutely nothing else TO DO but
look after them. He even admits that one Oh
his own appontees, IA good Democrat, IL really
not fit for the place, because, with all MS OK
cellent qualities, he is busy man, and cannot
devote all his attention to the schools. Things
are indeed coming TO pretty pass when Mayor
Van Wyck is ready TO reform his own people
out Of office
He admits that the problem is difficult one,
and we agree with him. 1t is not often that
even advertising will discover an intelligent,
educated man of such standing In the COM
munity as TO fit him to care for its educational
interests who has no private business which
requires attention. II Is only hoboes and pro-
fessiona politicians who can afford to devote
all their time to an office which pays no salary.
Men of business ability usually have business.
Still. we think there is way out for the
Mayor He evidently does not think political
work Incompatible with public service. Time
given TO district leadership does not count. II
is only reputable business callings that unfit
men for giving attention to school duties or
other official work. This is evident from the
selection OF Mr. Mccartney to supervise street
cleaning Indeed from the results obtained,
we are led to believe that his professional labor
ns n Tammany district leader Is his principal
qualification for Street Cleaning Commissioner.
If the Mayor will apply the same rule to the
schools he will solve his problem all right
Mr.. IIubbell and Mr.. O'Brien cannot well
leave their offices. but there Is no trouble in
getting the Tammany leaders TO leave their
saloons. They can, II necessary, transfer the
business TO their wives or bartenders and be
free to give their whole time to advancing the
cause Of education except that needed for
political leadership, which. as the Mccartney
case shows, does not count. That Is the only
sort Of complete devotion to the schools which,
far see. the Mayor can secure.
