As alum costs only two cents

alum powders. however. from the fact
that they are sold at from ten Ia
twenty cents for pound can, or
that some prize-llko spoon or

official OF tho Indian bureau the other

He docs not have the influence
among the Indians now that he had
ten years ago. although he Is more
than the ordinary Indian inteliectu-
ally. Ills success as an apostle was
due to his superior intelligence. com
bined with low cunning and an utter
lack OF conscience. To secure the in
fiuence and power he welded over his
followers in the early days OF his
notoriety he resorted 10 numerous
tricks and deceptiols.
ION one occasion when he had been
lecturing on the new religion he told
his audience that on the next day he
would make ice from the river and
invited all 20 see him perform a mir
acle. II being August he knew that

boring icehouse n generous lump. and
deposited II In the current above the
bend. Wilson. with wild gestures
and weird incantatlons. placed him
self at convenient point where he
lifted the floating ice from the water
when II reached him from above.
and thus made the Piutes believe he
had supernatural power BY such
trickery he made his associates be-
iIeve that the ghost dance would
drive the white man away from this

the manager would not hear OF either
OF them. says the London Express. lie
said he did not want music which
would distract the attention OF the au-
