Strike-the-Kettl is not romantic
name, but the old Indian who bore that
appellation was leader and a Chris
tan king among his people. For
many years Strike-the-Kettle was a

this duty he was wounded in a fight
with his own people. A few years ago,
when the Dakota prairies were on fire,
the Indians of the Standing Rock
Agency fought the flames for days.
When at last it was feared the whole
village would be swept away, a de-

wagon packed, ready to flee at the last

Detroit. Mich. May 4. - The state
convention which yesterday elected
delegates at large to the national Re.
publican convention transacted its
business quickly and tremendously af-
ter it had been fully organized, but it
was greatly delayed in. settling the
question of eligibility for seats be-
tween two fighting factions from Ann
Arbor and it's county of Washtenaw.
Far more elouuence was expended on
account of this county fight than over
any of the matters set forth in the
call for the convention. The actual
business of the gathering was then
speedily dispatched. The four dele
gates at large who had been slated
were elected without division with the
exception of William Mcpherson, the
fourth delegate at large. whose candi-
dacv was opposed by that of Frank G.
Gilchrist Of Alpena. The result on a
roll call vote was Mcpherson, AS;

In one of the statistical! divisions of
the Department of Agriculture in
Washington may be seen machine
resembling typewriter, which multi
plies and divides with unerring accu-
racy and with great rapidity. Give its
operator a muliplicand of six figures
and a muluplier as large, and he will
write them out as upon a typewriter;
then he turns handle a few times,
and before the onlooker knows what is
going on, the product is written out
before him. The machine performs
examples in division with equal ease.
Does any one of our young readers
fancy that he sees in this invention an
emancipation of boys OF the twentieth
century from the vexation Of the null
tiplication table? Alas! that is too
much for him to hope.
