resented. 1t is said. the last hope of his
people, has something of a pathetic sig
nificance.
Many stories are recalled of Tecum-
seh's grandson, who, like his fast vanish
ing tribe. represented traditions antedat-
ing the discovery of this country by CO.
lumbus. He was always accompanied by
his interpreter, for, though he could speak
English very well, he held it beneath his
dignity to converse with anyone whom he
did not esteem his equal in rank.
When referred from the Secretary of
the Interior to the Assistant Secretary.
he refused to have anything to say TO
the Little Chief''-he must talk with the
big Chief" With the President only
could he. in his estimation, converse as
an equal, claiming equal distinction with
his illustrious grandfather, Tecumseh,
Ling of all the Indians in this country.
Big Jim" was tall, very straight, and
well formed. with fine features, and had
long iron-grey hair He bore himself
with an air of dignity and was, in fact,
a very handsome old man.
Among the traditional beliefs of his
people is that of the transmigration of
the soul. and 1t is said that the sister of
Wah-pah- h-pe-to refused to marry a
member OF the tribe, averring that it was
revealed to her in a dream that her lover

be said to be almost unique among the
Indian tribes of this country IN their

appears to be the cause of their decline

on the columns of the exterior, blue is
used inside, so as to connect the outer
portions of the building with the interior.
As a whole the interior treatment of this
building is most attractive. Many dec
orative features are used.
The interior decoration of the Agricul-
tural Building is quite original and arts
tic and carries out very cleveriy the IDEAS
which suggest themselves in a building OF
this character. Garlands extend arottIiIi
the room, made of a combination OF rye,
oats. barley, and the different kinds OF
corn These are tied by strings of differ
enc ,iorAd peoples and hops. with here
and there so.-e of the brighter coiored
vegetables used in cartouehess aodins
bright tints to the grains.
The Machinery Building is In two shades
of gold. The interior has large NUMBER
of painted tapestries, illustrating the
character of the exhibits beneath These
tapestries have been used for practical as
well as pictorial purposes While TINS Is
a large building, the space is limited, con-
sequently these tapestries are used as IL
Illustrations of the exhibits themselves, as
well as for purposes CT ornamentation-
They include views of machine shops and
machinery, and constitute novel and IN
tereStiDR feature OF the Ouituih5.
The Electricity Building is treated upon
the interior in violet and light green hues-
Green is found to be the most suitable
color to bring out the effect of an interior
electrical display. The white material
used is relieved by the violet and blue
tints, and the whole color scheme is light
in effect. The great dome of the Elec-
tricity Building. which is ablaze with arc
HIM in
terspersed with starry festoons of lights.
1t is the idea to make the Woman's
Building as homelike in appearance as
possible upon the interior, so the walls
have been painted o. colored with soft
greens and yellows, as a general basis
for the color scheme. Green is the main
color of the exterior, and the interior cor
responds in general effect.
The Bazaar Building is in green. and
gold, and white. many of the soft pris-
matte colors being used to relieve it of
monotony. The building is used for arti-
Giles having all sorts of colors, therefore
great variety is impaired to the color
effects, as a whole. There is connect
ing link in sentiment and theme between
the bunting and tapestries, flags and ban
ners, in the interior of the buildings of
the exposition, and the flags and stream
ers used in the exterior decorations upon
buildings and about the grounds. Pan
American flags and flags of all kinds are
seen in profusion. The coats-of-arms of
different States and dependent countries
are conspicuous in many places.
Upon special occasions, such as days
devoted to certain States, or associations.
banners and ensigns of these Institutions
will float in the breeze. Everywhere there
is color and gayety, and the mind is i'm
pressed that this is a great festival of
the nations in celebration OF a century
of achievement on the Western Henri
sphere.

of the labor organizations Of the country

prominent members of the order of the

Never in the history Of labor" he said

NEW YORK, April 1.-THE close of the

no perceptible disadvantages on the re-

PAYING OFF MILLER'S DUPES.
Distributing the Get-Rich-QuicIS
Syndicate's Fund.

NEW YORK, April 27.-Arrangements
are nearly completed for the payment Of
some of the creditors out of the funds in
the hands of John 3. Lord, the trustee of
the Miller get-rich-quick syndicate. He
has charge of about 81, 900. Originally
the amount of claims reached the sum of
$4,000, but by an order of the court
handed down last summer that sum was
cut down to $2s7, 600
The trustee went over Millers books
then and deducted from each claim the
amount the claimant received from Mil
Ter in the way of dividends. Some few
lucky ones had been paid back more than
they put in, so they were not entitled to
any more. Others got back quite large
portion of the investment, so in the final
settling up they will receive a percentage
on the original sum, less the amount re
turned. The claims range from s. to one
of 81 800
