ranch. II is now proposed that the |
Government cease Its endeavors to |
make aristocrats out of the indians
and turn to the task Of developing men.
With this end in view 1t is planned to
limit the courses OF all the Govern
ment schools to the ordinary common
school studies, thus furnishing a solid
elementary foundation and leaving the
rest to the Indian to whom Is open
hundreds of schools and colleges,
should he have the happy inspiration
ability or ambitiUt to go higher. In
other words, the Government plans to
fit the Indian to earn his bread and
butter and leave the rest to him.
In furtherance OF this plan the in
dustrial feature is to be introduced in
the schools. BY this line of teaching
the Indians of both sexes will receive
instruction in the trades and indus
tries. the practical things of every day.
work-a-day life. They will he taught
less of the theories which they arc
unable to grasp and more of the prac-
teal things so necessary to the equip
ment of man or woman who is Deepen

support.
The results Of this new policy of the
Government will be watched with
great interest by those studying tho
hest methods of developing ideals OF
thrift among a people naturally lazy
and shiftless as well as by the theo-

NEW EDUCATION FOR THE

Probably more money has been spent
on the Indians of the country with the
least return than on any people or pro-

has been virtually wasted and there il
no promise that the waste will be stay

The proposed reformation In the

to these schools have been conducted
on plane far beyond the ordinary
needs of the pupils. The Indian has In

at the close of the meeting. Not a

What was the reason? 1t Is not far
to seek.
In Hilo, there are several hundred
dollars worth Of receipts which read
IN figures and words as follows, to wit:

they all represent money paid to a Ho

Of any monument erected to their

The present Honolulu committee is
largely composed of men whose names

know that 1t Is possible that Honolulu
may appropriate the dollars sent from

here is clear and distinctly opposed to
giving a cent for such purposes. The
feeling here is against contributing q
dollar, without more substantial and
de finite guarantees of the use to be
made of the money than are shown
IN the thanks of Governor Dole sent
over In advance.
The Hawaiians here freely state
that they will contribute nothing to

81 remember" says Uncle Ezekiel,
'when a boy that Uncle Josie Johnson,
while out cunning one day, got tired
and sat down by a large pine tree in
the Big Cove and fell asleep, but was
awakened by n noise and IN looking
down at his feet saw a large rattle
snake. Putting up his gun, he was
about TO shoot when he saw a fine deer
about eight feet In front Of him. He
Their took aim at the deer, when sud
denly he heard n great luttering over
head, and. looking up, he saw a large
flock of wild turkeys. He no sooner
saw them than he heard another noise
In the bushes at his right, and, looking
round, he saw a big bear gazing at him.
Fearing that he was about to be de-
voured, he shot at the deer, when the
gun busted.
'The bullet killed the deer, the lock
fell down the rattler's throat and chok-
ed him to death. the barrels shot up in
TO the air and killed the wild turkeys,
the stock killed the bear by striking
him between the eyes, and the concus-
sion threw Uncle Josie backward.
when lie landed on his back in the
middle Of n brush heap, he found he
had killed 40 rabbits. 1t took a two
horse team to cart the game home."-

was a woman castaway about, and
they could not dispute the fact Of tile
tracks in the sand, l could not explain
away the laughter. I simply contented
myself with saying that we would
leave some provisions on the beach
that night and see II they were missing
IN the morning and With sleeping with
one eye open to see that the frightened
fellows did not steal the boat and make
OF to some other Island.
We were down on the beach when
daylight came. and there were fresh
tracks again. The woman had circled
about the heap Of provisions, but had
touched nothing. There was a trail
leading out Of the sen and another lead
Ing barf. and there were 200 imprlnts
OF feet TO look at. The Chinese were
absolutely knocked out with consterha-
tion, and only my promise to watch the
beach that night and capture or shoot
the witch Gained them down. I re-
malned with them an that day to pre-
vent them from plotting, and 1t was
not until midnight that 1 took up my
watch Oh the shore. I had two re-
volvers as weapons, but I bad no idea
Of shooting. I proposed to capture the
thing, witch or woman, II It lay in my
power. It was low tide at 2 o'clock. l
was concealed behind n heap Of brush,
and It was q starlight night. At that
hour q figure which looked like q hu-
man being came out Of the gentle surf
and began to walk UP and down the
beach. AS It walked away from me I
rose up and went forward on tiptoe
and was within 80 feet Of II when 1t

went back to the Cinnamon and
found them chattering in terror, and
If they had not been afraid Of the witch
they would have made a rush for the
boat and left me alone on the island. 1
sat watching them til daylight came,
and then we all went down TO the beach.
The tide was coming In, but we found
tracks, as before. While we were
hurrying about. arguing and discuss
ing, the tide brought in the naked limb
and foot of n woman, n white woman.
1t had been torn from the body by the
sharks, and It was the foot which. had
made the tracks in the sand. One of
my shots had struck and killed her as
she swan away, and the blood had
brought the savage sharks to the at
tack. There lay the limb before us,
with the flesh hard and firm, though
showing a bruise here and there, but
