MYTHOLOGY OF IOWAS.
Gods, Nymphs, Satyrs and Centaurs in
the leuends.

Chandler, o. T., June 2.-The mythology
of the Iowa Indians like the imaginary
cohorts OF Greecian, gods. goddesses,
nymphs, satyrs, centaurs," contains some
queer angels of assistant gods" They
believe that the great Indian Zeus' celes-
tial cabinet consists of seven angels. or
the Great Spirits agents, declares the
Stroud Messenger. Each angel attends
TO his own special department All the
angels are wholly or partly like the
tabled centaur lower animals 1t is be-
lieved that the God of Lightning is an
exceedingly largeb lack eagle, who, when
he winks with his large fiery eyes, sends
lightning either to punish or scare the
dwellers on the lower world. Very ancient
but implicitly believed Iowa tradition
relates that the black eagle angels killed
only one Iowa Indian during the last 600
years, or as far back as the oral history
of the tribe extends. That bad Indians
was killed by lightning for having been
a first class heather liar and deceiver
Long ago. when the exceeding numerous
IOwas lived in and owned the whole
present state of Iowa. that noted bad In
dian invited the several thousand mem
bers of the tribe to an extra sumptuous
feast, to be given by him on his exten-
sive wigwam premises during the first
days of the green corn moon. Many
thousands came there from all parts Of
the long and broad lands of the Iowas.
When all were on his premises he laughed
in their hungry looking faces, telling
them that there would be no feast, that
he had simply fooled them, lied to the
whole tribe. Suddenly the Lightning
Gods wrath was kndled against the
wholesale liar, and forthwith winlled his
fiery eyes in thee, loudless sky and killed
the liar with lightning. The black eagle
angel acted very discreet, Just and com
plimentary in never having occasion to
kin another Iowa Iiar.

HIRED MAN SUSPECTED

Shawnee, o. T, June 2.-The News has
the following on the mysterious death of
Wm Yakish, living about one and one
half miles on the reservation. He was
killed in the bedroom Of his home while
the family were eating dinner. Mrs.
Yakish heard the report of the revolver,
q 3S-caIibre, and went at once to the room
where she found Mr.. Yakish lying on
the floor dead. the ball having penetrated
the left breast and passing through the
heart, causing death instanter. 1t is not
positively known whether it was a case
of murder or suicide Yesterday Mrs
Nakish hired a man TO help him with the
dairy work and farming and it is suspi-
cioned that he may have committed the
murder. though it is not known.
The man is now missing, and who was
only hired by Mr.. Yaksh yesterday, is
unknown 10 the family. He had not been
about home for some time before the
shootink took place.
Tie weapon used belonged to Mr.. Yak
Ssh and was kept in the north bedroom,
an entrance to which is through door
leading out Of the sitting room, the north
window, and the only one to the room,
and in front of which in the middle of the
floor the body was found lying on the
back. was open, being hoisted half way
UP.
There is no motive known for the
stranger TO have committed the act as
there had been no quarrel or words Of
an unpleasant nature between them that
is known Of He may have been about
the yard but not in the house before or
at the time of shooting and has not been
seen since by anyone.
The news of the killing soon reached
the city and it was not long before
crowd was on the scene, Mr.. Yakish being
well known, having conducted a dairy for
some time. One of his boys is engaged
fn the First National bank.
The officials, both county and city police
were on the ground making full investi-
CATION and giving all the information pos
sible. though there was but little to be
gained beyond the fact that Mr.. Yakish
was dead with bullet through his heart
and the weapon 32-calibre revolver,
lying in the room by his side.
Further inquiry by the officers may lead
20 the shedding of more light. but until
this shall have been done, the unfortu-
nate affair will remain a mystery. The
deceased leaves wife and quite fam
ily of children. He was 43 years of age
