FEMALE INDIAN BEGUN.

The Begun of Bhopal warmly cheered at
the recent Durbar in India. Lord and Lady Cur
zon had had curtained inclosure prepared for
the Hndoo ladies of rank who wanted to see the
gorgeous ceremonies without being seen: but this
native queen did not choose to avail herself of
it. She stoutly declared that she meant to
take her place among the other reigning chiefs
and walk up with them to greet the viceroy. She
came accordingly, thickly yelled. and shook hands
with lord Curzon and the Duke of Connansht,
and afterwards with Lady Curzon and the ducll-
ess. The present begun succeeded her mothe.

the array of chains that Miss Blank has.
She has seven. three have been given to
her, and is working feverishly away at an
eighth, a special combination of blue,
white and green beads, to wear with a
white shirt waist. There seems to be no
limit to the number of chains one can
have and as soon as a weaver sees a new
pattern c she makes a mental resolve to
copy it in whole or in part"
Craze Had an Indian Origin.
The interest in bead work in Minneapo-
lis came by way of Leech Lake, where a
group Of teachers spent the summer
They saw the chains which the Indians
weave and learned how to make them and
when they came home, at the beginning
OF school, they brought with them speci-
, mems of the Indian work and then trium-
phantly showed what they could do them
selves. Some of these Indian chains were
marvels of color and design and words
and letters were introduced in >ns5t
amusing fashion. Anything serves the
Indian for pattern and the picture on Il
tomato can is quite as interesting to him
rs a flower. In one of the chains the
red weaver had repeated the startling
headlines Of newspaper article published
during the late war, WAR in the Philip
pines; Seven Dead and Many Wounded =
were the words that ran through the geo
metrcal pattern worked out with green
and yellow beads.
The teachers did not reproduce such alb
surdities, but they copied the convention
al patterns and studied up the designs in
old books on cross stitch and every time
they showed chain they found some one
who wanted to learn how to make one.
AT first it was rather difficult to obtain
the looms and some clever weaverS found
they could work very we'll by twisting the
threads over their fingers. This was
rather complicated method for beginners
who coaXed and drew patterns until sew
eral of the carpenters were able to turn
out the simple little machines on which
the chains are woven. Now the manual
training classes in the high schools will
make the looms to order, although if one
chooses one can get along very well with a
fat smooth board three inches wide and
twenty inches long with pins stuck in the
ends to separate the threads. Some
weavers use a yard stick cut down to
twenty-four inches and supplied with
pins.
Use OF the Loom.
In weaving the chains the loom is strung
up with 500 or 600 Battenberg threads
each number has it's advocates. The
chains are made three, five or even sever
beads wide. In the case of a three-bead
chain, five threads are wound around the
loom. A linen thread, No so or 100. is
threaded through a fine needle, and the

THE UNIVERSITY
ENGINEERS RUN THINGS
They Throw Out Sophomore AGA
denies and Elect Their Own
President.

The sophomore class election at the
university this morning was like the
Junior election in which the engineers
minority triumphed. Long before. the
time called for the election the en-
gineers assembled in the chemistry
recitation-room and as fast as the
academies showed up they were
elected. The academic girls were
about the only representatives of that
department in the room when the
meeting was called to order. Rough
house was started in the ejectment
process and some of the opera seats
which have just been installed We're
shattered.
On the ballot for president, the en-
gineers' candidate received a majority
Of 20, but it was found that consid-
cradle "stuffing'' had been done. The
academies left the room in a body and
the engineers elected George Hull as
their presiding officer. The academies
resolved to hold an election of their
own next week, SO that the long-ex-
pected division Of classes will become
a. reality. This precedent will prob
ably be followed by the freshmen at
their election next week.
