Written for THE SILVER MESSENGER
Elizabeth Cline, of Brighton, Michigan.l
Near my western home window
Stands an elm tree, grand and tall
And the shadows from its branches
Cut queer capers on my wall.
Sometimes they nod and bow and scrape
Like dancers in a quadrille:
Then OF they move. with measured step,
Like soldiers out on drill.
Then all at once they toss their arms
AS tho brim fun OF glee;
Then quickly sober down again
Ana courtesy low to me-
As watch them from my pillow
With sleepy. half closed eyes;
They seemed TO me like darling spirits,
Dressed out in dark disguise.
What weird and wondrous fancfes
Troop thro' my mind at will.
And as they crowd its chambers
They set my heart enthrill
What faeina.ing imagery
They trace upon my mind
Those shadows from that old elm tree
That stands thro' sun and rain.
A Nesting place for loving birds.
In which to breathe their VOWS
The while they fit and build and sing
Among its swaying boughs.
Long may it live and flourish
And the sun light thrO' it play.
And its shadows dance upon my wall
From morn till evenings gray.
Then with my fancy shuttle
AS in and out 1t CLEANS,
rll till the warp of hum drum life
With woof of bright day-dreams.

SPENDING IT FOR WHISKY.
Winnebagos Receiving Their Annual
Pay from Uncle Sam.

Black River Falls, Wis. Nov. 7.-[Spe-
cial. The annual payment to the Wis
consin Winnebago Indians for this locali-
ty was finished Saturday night. Some
$4,000 was paid out. The disbursing
agent will go to W~ittenberg, Friendship.
Mansion, Necedah and Tomah.
The recent payment has been fraught
with much drunkenness among the In
dians, whisky was sold to them in many
cases openly, the dealer acting under the
impression that he was violating no law
by selling to persons of Indian blood not
members of any tribe
Under the recent decision of the North
Dakota Supreme court, defining the
DAVIS act which established the legal
status Of the Fort Berthold Indians, it
would seem that the Indian has all the
rights Of a citizen, though many deny to
them such rights, holding the case of the
Winnebagos not to be the same. as the
special act of Congress aIlotting to them
lands in severalty does not contemplate
full citizenship for a period of twenty-five
years from the granting act.

friends mourn him deeply, for he was es-
teemed for his social qualities no less than
for his marked ability and integrity. He
belonged to various organizations here, in
Guiding the Deutscher club, by some of
whose members he was given a farewell
dinner when he left for his post at Berlin
last year. Mr.. Goldschmidt was 81
years old.
Mr.. Goldschmidt was one of the oldest
and best-known citizens of Milwaukee and
one of the most prominent German-Ameri-
cans in the country. He was born in 1876
at Osterode in the Hartz mountains of
Germany and obtained his early education
mainly through his own efforts in the
schools of his native village and at Seesen.
He early resolved to come to America
and in December, 1866, went TO New
York and then came on to Wisconsin,
where he engaged in business as clerk
for his uncle at Port Washington. Later
he was salesman in the firm of Gold
schmidt & Co. in Milwaukee, and in 1872
entered the Brand Stove company as vice
president and manager, with which con-
Germ be was connected for twenty-one
wears
