same now as it was many hundreds of years ago. before the wonderful cereal was discovered by the white man and made one of the most important com mercial products. This corn of the Hop Indians may not be of so fine quality as that raised by the farmers on the Hi nos prairies, but in it the visitor will see the pure Indian maize that filled Co- lumbus with delight when he first made it's acquaintance.
 Among the other blanket Indians will be families of Washoes from Nevada and Shoshones, from Utah; Navajoes, from Arizona and New Mexico: Mission and Digger Indians from California; Crows and Flatheads, from Montana; Apaches and Pimas from Arizona; Chippewas from Minnesota and Cheyennes, Arapa- hoes, Comanches. Wiehitas, Osages and Pawnees from Oklahoma.
 These will all maintain seperate villa ges and they will live exactly as they would were they at home on their reser- vation instead of being in the center of the greatest exposition eyer held.
 The exhibit of the educated Indians will not be so picturesque but it will be none the less interesting. On the 40-acre reservation the United States govern ment will erect many modern buildings to show the progress that the Indian student has made.
 The principal structure will be a three story building. POS feet by 100 feet At the rare will be an auditorium 40 by 60 feet, On the first floor will be an exhibit of the manuel training department with the Indian students at work at their ma chimes. manufacturing various articles. Across a wide aisle, that runs the full Tenth of the building, will be typical blanket Indians making their baskets. leather articles strings of beads. and other articles just as they did before the advent of the white man and his schools.
 In the auditorium will be given lectures and programmes will be rendered by the various Indian societies. Music enters largely into their entertainments. and one of the regular features will be con- certs by the trained Indian band of 50 pieces.
 One interesting feature of the Indian exhibit will be a reproduction of a from tier trading post. Here the Indians will assemble and trade their products for supplies just as they did in the early days. The trading post will be practical and the several hundred Indians who make their home on the, exposition grounds may sup ply all their wants there. Their beads baskets and leather articles will be taken in exchange for food. blankets and any thing else wanted. The post will be so well equipped that the Indian may pro- duce everything he needs without leav- ing the exposition grounds.

An Unsentimental Fence.

From the Saturday Evening Post.
 Representative Joseph Sibley of Penn sylvania,. the millionaire oil man and horseman, who came to congress once as a democrat and returned the next session as a republican. has a beautiful summer home on the shore of Lake Champlan, not far from Plattsburg N. Y.
 It is Sibley's delight to take a party of congressional friends up to Lake Cham plain with him and keep them as long as they will stay.
 John Sharp Williams, the Mississippi statesman was one of Sibey's guests, and never ceased to tank of the beauties of the place.
 On a dull day in the late session of congress- Williams wrote busily at his desk for an hour and then walked over to Sibley.
 'Joe,'' he said. There's some poetry I've written about that place of yours"
 Let's see it." demanded Sibley.
 Its about pair of lovers sitting on the fence in your park, repeating their vows while the moon rises over the lake"
 Sibley laughed immoderately. "It can't be dene," he gasped.
 "Why not?" asked Williams indignant ly. Are the residents of that region so lost to sentiment that such an episode is mpossible?"
 ''It isn't that" Sibiey replied, between laughs, "but, you see, all my fence Is made of barbed wire''
