FIRST VIEW OF WHITE MAN.

ened the Indians.
It is small wonder that the first
view of a white man created terror
among the superstitious Indians. A
striking instance Of this occurred
when the Wallawalla Indians first
saw Captain Clark, of the Lewis and
Clark expedition. Thinking to propiti-
ate the savages and allay their fears
Of the white men, he planned to visit
a village Of the Wallawallas before
the arrival of the rest of his party.
With this end in view, he set out to
cross the Columbia River In canoe,
taking three men with him. On the
way he shot crane and a duck, both
of which fell near him. He landed be-
fore FIVE wigwams placed close to each
other, but not person was visible,
and the doors, which were of mat.
were closed. Holding his pipe in hand,
as an indication Of good will. he push
ed aside one of the doors and entered
the lodge.
Inside were thirty men. women and
children huddled together In terror.
He went to them, shook each by the
hand and said some friendly words,
expressing by word and manner his
kindly feeling Their apprehensions
were allayed until he took out his
burning glass and lighted his pipe by
the rays of the sun. CONSERVATION
again prevailed, and what might have
occurred but for the timely arrival OF
two chiefs who knew the white men
cannot be told.
II seems that the Indians had not
seen Captain Clark. but they had seen
the white crane which he had shot
fall lust before his appearance. They
had also seen the duck fall at his shot
Thsv connected the fall Of the birds
With his advent and thought he had
fallen from the clouds.
The sound Of the rife. which they
had never before heard. they believed
was a signal to announce the white

to live comfortably at Oxford but will
travelling in Italy, France, or Germany
during vacations. The University of
Oxford is strongest in just those quail
tiles which Jul western institutions
are most deficient in, and a course at
this center of conservatism and cul-
ture will form an admirable compile
ment to education at a western uni
versity. This is entirely u scholastic
matter and political influence or pull
will have nothing to do with the selec-
ton of candidates who will be appoint
ed by the faculty for this state. In &C
%cordance with Rhodes ideas, mere
book worms will not stand any show;
but it will be the aim of the faculty to
select men, the strongest possible
mentally, morally and physically, and
who will be creditable representatives
of western manhood. In order to be
necessary that one has taken work at
least. as far as the end of the sophie
more year in the university, and must
be under the age OF 20 years. Since
Oxford lays greater stress upon clas-
sizes, than other institutions, the stu
dents must be well grounded in Latin,
Greek and mathematics. 1t is expect
ed that the high-schools of the state
will in the future train their students
for these positions al Oxford. which
certainly are prizes worth having. A
few high schools already give three
years of Latin and an equivalent
amount of mathematics and some will
doubtless be able to start a few stu
dents in Greek. Owing to the sparse
ness of population this gift mea more
to Wyoming than it does to other
states. In such states as Massachu-
sets or New York there will be sev-
eral thousand earnest competitors.
while in Wyoming, for the present,
there will be no more than a dozen
