were prov ded for the guests A full
orchestra composed OF the Lexington
orchestra assisted by ]. J. Bredehoeft

The floor Of the lodge room is
fitted specially for that purpose ane is
undoubtedly the best dancing floor in
the county. The pool and billiard
rooms were also very popular With the
guests, while Others amused them
selves in the game rooms playing
c.rds, checkers, dominos, etc. A

emphatic order from the war depart

Des Moines river, then upon the

banks the hostile Sac and Fox Indians

mysterieus one, but it was inexorable.
The young lieutenant and his sweet
heart suspected that the idea OF send

emanated from Colonel Benton, who
hoped that during the lolg absence
Of the soldier his daughter might be
weaned away from what be considered
mere ipiatuation OF hers. There
were but two courses open to young
Fremont-to obey the order or throw
up his commission. He was a soldier
and he obeyed orders. With the best
spirits he could command Fremont
set out upon his peTilous expedition.

credit TO himself that the gallant
soldier returning not only found the

him, but an appointment to explore

HANDING DOWN OF HUSBANDS.
Testamen ntary Disposition Of Then
Brinsn Up . Question for the
Courts to settle.

The report that recently deceased
New York woman left her husband by
will to another woman has been pub
lished, and has attracted no little at
tention. 1t will be interesting to note
the result of this testamentary dispo-
sition of a peculiar kind of personal
property by one who has been sup
posed to have a life interest in the
premises. For the sake of establish
ing precedent, says Harper's
Weekly, we should like to see the
gentleman who was thus disposed
of enter a demurrer to the carrying
out of that particular provision of the
will with which he is most concerned.
1t may be, of course, that he was thus
devised to another of his own free
will and with his consent. Still, the
individual owes it to his sex to have
the legality of the devisement either
established or denied by the properly
constituted authority. 1t will never
do for the husbands of this land to
submit tamely and without construc-
tion of the status by our judicial off,
GERS, to an alleged and newly discov-
cred principle of law which reduces
them to the level of a chattel, and
which gives them no more to say as to
their future than that which we accord
to a horse, dog, a family portrait or
q mahogany bedstead. The issue may
be awaited BY men with calmness, for
tits hardly likely thatwith the machin-
cry Of the law in the hands Of men the

rights. Nevertheless an authofdtive
decision should be rendered with all
due promptness, and we trust that

THERE is NO SPORT IN IT.
Herthern Indians DO Not Take Pleas
ure In Securing venison for
Their Larderu.

A New Yorker who lives small frac-
tion of the time in the city, being usu-
ally long distances away in pursuit OF
game, tells Of the method pursued by
the Indians of British Columbia in TAX
ing deer, says the New York Tribune.
They hayeeyolved'a a system, this hunts-
man says. that shows practical skill;
and sympathy and knowledge Of nat
ural conditions. He says:
"'rhe Indians, to begin with, do not
hunt deer for the pleasure of hunting.
They GO for deer as housekeeper goes
TO market for beef. And what's more,
in British Columbia. at any rate, they
don't go often. Salmon are plentiful
in the waters and are easily caught.
So, why chase animals when they can
secure fish? 1t is something as it is
in Newfoundland. where went cou-
pie of seasons ago. There the pre-
vailing fish, as you might say, is cod;
and though there is no end to the vari-
ETY. Of edible fish that can be taken,
the natives never think Of eating any
thing else. Cod is plentiful, and they
form the habit, ! suppose. This is 50
ingrained that they call Goldfish fish
simply. The genus is dividedIinto cod
and the rest of fish.
SWELL, when the British Columbia
Indian makes up his mind for venison.
he goes at it systematically and with
out sentiment. A group of half doz-
en- or ten men split and take either end
Of valley. Then they proceed along
the mountain slope from the two ends
70 the center. They choose the shell
tered side Of the valley on which the
deer seek to escape the wind. Each
party covers the mountain side, some
near the foot and some at the top, and
Others between the lines. keeping
abreast by an initiated owl hoot. The
deer, on winding pursuit, have the
trick Of leaping away down the slope,
unlike the goats, which go up, and thus,
between the two approaching parties,
they are swept together at the miclle

thus be killed off and the Indians sup
