finds the evidence of the red man
everywhere in the names of streams,
lakes, islands, headlandS in the legends
which relate to the region: in tt e rude
bark tepees clustered on the sho 'eS of
the lakes, and in presence of the
aborigine himself. Wild, they are yet
quite tame, and to see them skimming
the surface of the lakes in the old
fashioned birch-bark canoe whether
the water is dimpled by the summer
breeze or the white caps are rolling
heavily, is perfectly in keeping with
the aspect of things.
The white man is gradually en-
croaching on the red mans preserve,
done under the form of law it cannot
be prevented. Already the trolley
reaches to the reservation gate, and
the time is not far off when the clang
of the motorman's warning will echo
through the wigwam of the red man.

dissolve their tribal relations, divide
their land in severalty, and live as

relapse, into the savage state, and

Roosevelt seems to have the situation
well in hand from a Republican stand
point, and certainly Mr.. Cleveland
could not secure the nomination at
the hands of any Democratic conven-
tion,' said Mr.. Bryan, with especial
emphasis on the word Democratic"
Il am surprised anyone should think
he had a chance"
DO you think, Mr. Bryan, that Judge
Parker's candidacy is worthy of seri-
Gus consideration ?" he was asked.
With merry twinkle in his eye,
Mr.. Bryan replied:
Il don't know anything of these in
dividual candidates." and as his car
riage started he added, with a wave
of his hand. Il don't know much about
politics anyway"
Mr.. Bryan came in from the East,
and left at 6 o'clock last night for
Hudson, Wis, where he was to deliver
a non-political address.
Regarding his European trip which
it has been said he would take in COM
pany with his daughter this year for
the purpose of studying the financial
conditions of some of the European
countries, Mr.. Bryan said he had not
as yet made up his mind; it was pos

and declared the regular dividend OF

the dividend would be more But the
story got out that there was going to
be cut in the price of copper next
week, and Harry We'll, acting for the
Standard Oil interests, began Offering
the stock down. This brought out thou
sands of shares on the break and the
selling movement did not end until the
price reached 4619, the lowest or rec
ord.
This move on the part of the Well
crowd puzzled Wall street. 1t was gen.
orally regarded as a ruse of the bears
i'm order to facilitate their covering OPP
erations, but coming as 1t did from the
Standard Oil crowd, ii created some
anxiety lest those interests are still
committed to the bear side of the mar

NEW YORK, July 16.-The market
was stronger today, despite the fierce
bear raid which featured its opening.
This was to some extent caused by in
terviews given out by prominent men,
in which they declared that the selling
movement was not warranted by actual
conditions. The attitude of the big in
terests towards the market was per-
haps the most encouraging feature of
the day James r. Keene's firm sent
out private letters to its customers ad
vising them to buy stock. Other big
firms followed suit.
Wall street learned today that the
services of James r. Keene have been
retained by j. P. Morgan & Co. to re-
new the bull campaign in United States
Steel shares. The story was also cur
rent in Wall street that Mr.. Keene and

WASHINGTON. D. c.. July 16.-It
was learned tonight that the state de-

Russia stating that it neither would
receive nor consider the matter of the
Jewish petition on the subject of the
Kishenev incident. This information
came in the form of a cable dispatch
from Mr.. Riddle, American charge at
st. Petersburg, to whom was commit
ted the delicate task Of inquiring of
the Russian government as to it's atti-
tude with respect to the presentation
of the petition.
1t is believed that this will end the
matter. and that no further steps will
be taken by this government to bring
the views of the petitioners to the at
tention of Russia. although as yet no
consideration has been given by the
president to the course to be pursued
in the light of Russia's response to
our inquiry

that his uncle, George Lavayeau, was

moved out to the old cabin some time

to leave in search of work, he pur-
chased the dog as a watchman, and
there the girls have stayed ever since,
doing what little work there was to be
done around the place, gathering their,
own fuel and doing their own cooking.
When the Humane society agent tried
to approach the cabin he was attacked

Finally he held a long distance con-

of their enforced isolation.
The little girls have been without a
mother two years and have practically

been away earning money. The girls
are pretty and intelligent, and say they
do not blame their father for leaving

The Globe correspondent has just
had a talk with Prof. Mazzoni, who ex-
pressed frank astonishment at his pa
tient holding on so long.
The pope, speaking tonight to DR..
Mazzoni, said he was weary of the
hopeless struggle and begged to be
allowed to die peacefully without use
less stimulants, which could only pro-
long life a few hours at best.
The pontiff was especially solicitious
for those about him, and often apollo
gized for the trouble his long illness
had caused them, doing so with the
touching delicacy, which moved his at
tendants to tears. Prof. Mazzoni told
the Globe correspondent he did not in
tend to perform another operation as
