world. Nature Is full Of eccenricities.
She gives to one man great riches and
denies him the ability to spend them.
Men have been unjustly called misers
who simply didn't know how to rightly
get rid Of their gold. She gives to an
other man love for children, and denies
them to him. She gives to still another
a heart throbbing with good impulses
and sorrow for the suffering of others,
and he lacks the ability to earn more
than enough to scantily supply his
bare wants. There is Marshall Field,
he is happy! He is worth 500, 100000.
There isn't King In Europe whose
personal possessions exceed that
amount. Think of your own needs, and
see how much pleasure might be de-
rived from so great fortune. But Ma
ture didn't give to Mr.. Field the ability
to enjoy money, comments the Cincin-
natl Post. He built a palace and it was
the home Of discord Marshall Field
Jr. lives in England, holding almost no
communication with his father. The
other day his daughter, Ethel Field
Tree, was divorced and her child given
to its father. The charges made against
the butterfly wife was desertion. She
made no defense Mrs. Marshall Field
died abroad and was buried in foreign
soil. And SO the old man is left, al
most deserted by his children. His life
Is solitary and secluded. He knows
how to work and doesn't need to work.
There is no spur Of ambition to make
labor sweet. His shoulders stoop, and
his head, gray at 30, is crowned with
snow at 81. He has no conf1dants and
few friends. When you hunger for
great wealth, crave also the ability to
enjoy 1t, for the one without the other
means lifelong misery.

The assertion that the number of In
dian children attending school has
doubled since 1887 and that the num-
Der of Indian children in and out of
school Is steadily increasing hardly
squares with that theory of the gradual
extinction Of the red men which has
been often questioned of late years. 1t
tends rather to support the claim that
these much commiserated deniZens of
saved from themselves by compul-
sorry peace, SO that they are perhaps
more numerous under the white mans
rule than they were when their princi-
pal occupation was scalp-hunting. All
the earlier Indian statistics are mere
closest researches into the history Of
the Hurons for the purpose of his mon
umental work on the French in Amer
lea, made no pretenses toward an &C.
curate statement of their numbers. He
said that they were variously estimated
at from 10000 to 10000, but added that
the former figure was the more reason
able of the two. In estimating the
population of the Iroquois he Is equally
cautious merely haZarding an infer
ence that when the five nations were at
the height Of their power they did not
have as many as 1900 fighting men.
During the period covered by his mar
rative the Hurons were almost extermi-
mated by the IroQuois, and such de-
struction of tribe by tribe was not IN
common. In fact any great increase
Of population was impossible amid the
conditions of Indian life, and the early
explorers spent much of their time in
an uninhabited wilderness. The sub
jeet is glanced at in the last report of
the Commissioner Of Indian Affairs,
where there is table giving estimates
of the population Of Indians in the Uni
ted States from 1859 to 1900 The Com
missioner says that prior to the year
1850 only small reliance can be placed
upon the figures, and this is obvious
after the briefest examination. For
they jump from 10000 to Al, O36 be-
tween 1890 and 1920 and drop to 129,-
1856 in 1925. The census report of 1850
gave an enumeration of 400, 764, but
the fact that there is a shrinkage to
314, 500 within five years makes it prob
able that we still have to do with rough
estimates. 1t is only since all the
tribes have been corralled that it has
been possible to arrive at anything like
accuracy, and even of late there have
been some noticeable discrepancies
The census report of 1880 put the num-
Der Of Indians at 322 ,534; the report of
the Indian office for the same year
made the figures 256,127 In 1890 the re-
turn Of the census was 24S,253, and, ac-
cording to the Indian office, there was
an increase to 272, O23 by 1900, not in
Guiding some $4,000 persons who have
lost their tribal identity. The calcula-
ton at this day should be pretty near
the truth, and if there are more than a
quarter of a million Indians within the
United States to-day the probabilities
are that these aborigines are numeri-
cally as strong as they were three or
four centuries ago.

Mr.. Bryan Has Yet to Learn

~
1t is apparently William JennlnI
Bryan's incurable delusion that a
he had succeeded in inocuIatlns 1
body of the Democracy with the polS1
Gus virus of Populism the resulting ~
tule was the whole thing. De1eaI
not cured him of his illusion; he Il
insists that there is no Democracy y
diseased Democracy. From THIS Po'I
of yiew-and we are persuaded 1t
the correct one-Mr. Bryan's domnee1
ing attitude toward Democrats WI
have not been able to agree WIIn -
is readily explained and may oe lLV
readily excused. He is a man VI pa
and Of most engaging and asfee@p1
personality, and though his ascenuenI
in the Democratic party has c0st
dear and has proved profound nl'l ~
tune to the country, he is not wv e. e.
to learn. Other defeated candlUa''9 -

In the Police Court.

An assault on p. o. Seaburg by Victor
Nicholson Saturday. stirred up enough
police court business to keep Judge Pear.
sons mill grinding two days. Two sons
of Seaburg, Charles and Adolph, and a
friend, Chas. Larson started out Sunday
to clean out the gang that was blamed
for the assault on the father, and, in the
attempt, created quite ruction in Fast
Aberdeen. On Monday Nicholson had
the Seaborgs and Larson arrested, and
Judge Pearson fined them as follows: P.
o. Seaborg, $25 and costs; Chas. Sea-
borg, rs and costs; Adolph Seaborg, ~
and costs; Larson, SIS and costs. Chas.
Seaborg paid his fine and the others ap.
pealed to the superior court, where the
matter will be further aired.
This case was no sooner disposed OF
than p. o. Seaburg had Victor Nickel
son, Chas. Hayes and Ed. Maynard ar
rested for the assault OF Saturday night
"a proceeding that had he SO elected
would have saved his party all trouble,
if taken before his sons started out to
take the law into their own hands. AZ
ter hearing the case, Judge Pearson fined
Nicholson $40 and costs, and discharged
Hayes Il Maynard. Nicholson paid the
fine and quit.

Pekn, March IA general meeting
of the foreign ministers was held here
to-day, at which representative and
| committees were heard. Regarding
more punishment of the Chinese con-
nected with Boxers, there is a stren-
uous opposition against demanding any
more heads, but a list of ninety six
MINOR officials will shortly be presented
to Prince Ching and Ii Hung Chang,
urging that they be tried for completely
in the outrages, and punished when
found guilty, in such manner as the
Chinese themselves see fit, except in
the case of six men, who the minister.
think should be executed. The report of
the committee on the general prnci-
Piles on which the indemnity claims
should be considered was adopted.
Those claims, which are palpab un-
just, will be disalloWed
