Indian oratory in Washington.

Several orations in the Sioux IAN
guage We're delivered a few mornings
ago before the Senate Committee on
Indian Affairs. The orators were
Thunder Hawk, a full-blooded Sioux,
and four other chiefs, who are in
Washington to protest against the leas-
ing of portion of their reservation.
Thunder Hawk and his brother chiefs
were participants in the Custer mas
sacre. After that tragic episode they
fed to the British dominions, where
they remained for six years, finally
returning TO the United States and sur
rendering to the military authorities.
Since then they have lived upon their
reservation in peace and quiet. When,
in the presence of the Senators on the
Indian Affairs Committee, Thunder
Hawk was asked to state his protest,
the old warrior, not in the last abashed.
and with his leonine features as emo
tionless as if nodded in clay, arose
with his arms clasped. For almost
in his deep, gutteral voice, he began 10
speak. AS he progressed he added
appropriate gestures to his words, max
ing unique picture. When his speech
was translated it was found to be Il
logical and concise presentation of the
Indians position, without any dorid
rhetoric. The other chiefs proved to
be equally good as speechmakers.
The interesting part of the incident
Is that the orations of the Indians
won their case They are to be pro-
tccted in keeping their reservation in
tact.-Washington Post.

Some Good Dogs.

a dog often grows more sensible by
being in the company of bright chill
dren.
One dear little fellow would play
hide-and-seek just as nicely as you
can, hiding his eyes with his paw
when it came his turn, he would hide
under a chair or desk, and fairly shake
with excitement for fear of being seen.
A Lieutenant Walker once had a set
ter which was very devoted to him.
He was i'll for few days, and the
dog would not leave his side. One day
Mr.. Walker brought in some wood, and
remarked rather reproachfully, why
don't you bring in some wood, Jake"
The dog went at once to the shed,
into the wood-boX. He did this six
times, when, probably thinking that
was his share, he walked back to his
old station.
How glad he was the first day the
lieutenant sat up. First he went for
his stockings and then his boots, as
much as to say, Come, come, now,
try and dress yourself"
\ lady once had pretty dog who got
cold at night, and whined and cried so
much that she made him little fan
mel night-gown. 1t was buttoned at
the neck, and had blue ribbon to
fasten it around the waist. That dog
was very proud of his clothes. He
was like some little girls and boys.
If visitor called who wished to see
his nightgown, his mistress had only
to say, go get your night-gown," and
he would travel off upstairs and get it.
But where's the sash?" she asked one
| day. Back he travelled, and soon came
down. trailing his blue ribbon behind
him, just as delighted as he could be-

"Hop! hop! hopr shouted little Hen
ry, as he was playing in a field near
the wood.
Hop! hop! hop came an echo in
reply.
who's there?' asked Henry, for he
had never heard an echo before.
who's there?" replied the echo.
"Foolish fellow" cried Henry, at the
top of his voice.
Foolish fellow" was the reply from
the wood. At this Henry got very
lngry and called out many ugly names.
The voice from the wood repeated
every word. Henry could not tell
who it was speaking from the wood,
so he ran home and told his father
that boy hid in the wood had called
him bad names.
"Ah, Henry, you have heard nothing
but the echo Of your own words;
the bad names came first from your
own lips. Had you used kind and
gentle words, you would have had
kind and gentle words in return.
Remember that kind words bring
back kind echoes. Primary Educa-

The Eyes of a Lion.

One night, when some troopers were
encamped in South Africa, it came the
turn of Rennie Stevenson to go for
water to the spring, which was about
1000 yards distant. He describes the
experiences in his book. Through
Rhodesia." A comrade volunteered to
accompany him. When they We're
nearing the spring, this man whispered
to Stevenson:
There's lion skullling in the under
growth on the right bank"
Yes, there were its eyes, cleaning
through the dark.
"Shall l fire?" whispered the soldier.
Eyes, fire, but take good aim. If
you only wound ii, we are done for"
The trooper knelt and took a long
steady aim.
Bang! The sound Of the shot re-
verberated through the surrounding
trees and up the river. But there We're
the eyes, still cleaning.
Stevenson asked for the rifle and
crawled nearer, trying to get a bet
ter shot. Closer and closer went the
two, their hearts in their mouths. Sud-
denly, when they thought they were al
most in the face of the lion" they
found the "eyes" to be two glowing
worms. The alarmingly bright little
creatures had not felt it necessary to
get out of the way.

The United States Bureau Of Sta
tistics has issued an abstract in which
the growth of the nation in one century
is shown. In 1900 the area of its ter
ritory comprised S27, ,S44 square miles;
II 1900, exclusive Of Hawaii and
Alaska, 3,O25, 600 square miles. In 1900
the imports were S91 100000 and the
exports $71,00OOOO, imports thus ex-
ceedlng exports $20oOo,OOo. In 1901,
imports amounted to SS23,000,000 and
exports to 81, ,4s7, 100000, or $664,0o0,-
900 in excess of imports. The imports
in 1901 were thus nine times and the
exports twenty-one times as great as
those of 1900. These figures tell in
brief the marvellous territorial and
commercial development of the Repub-
lie in 100 yaers. What may be eS-
pected of it in another century?

Laws to Encourage Population,

In connection with the up-to-date
question of the depopulation Of France,
says the Paris Messenger, several con-
temporaries have been reviewing past
efforts made to increase the number
of inhabitants of the country. They
go back to the Roman period, when
Augustus enacted that no bachelor o.:
married man without children could
claim a legacy, whilst on the othe-'
hand, rewards where given to fathers
with large families. In France, Louis
XIV, in 1866, gave advantages with
regard to the payment of taxes to per-
sons marrying before the age Of twen-
ty and to fathers of ten children. In
179S bachelors We're taxed, but this
LASTED but a few years. In the year
XII of the revolution Napoleon pro
posed that all fathers of seven children
should have the right to call upon the
State to care for the bringing up and
education of one OF them.

Naval evolution is very interesting
says the Boston Journal. There was
first the torpedo-boat, devised for the
purpose of blowing great warships
out of the water. Then there was the
torpedo-boat destroyer, designed to at
tend to the torpedo-boats. Now we
have q new craft, the destroyer of
torpedo-boat destroyers, the latest
specimen of which has been built for
the Russian Navy. She is called the
Novik, and has a speed of twenty
five knots, a small freeboard and SUI
persuucture to keep her from being
observed, and a large radius of action
and good crew accommodation. But
the weak part of the design is that the
immense engines cannot be kept below
the water-line, but protrude above the
armor deck, working under an armor
