times. 1t was our boys first game and
played with no practice. The result was
10 to in favor of Stoughton.

Long People Are Seldom Fat.

Some persons are born with a nor
NAL tendency to become fat, others
with a tendency to leanness. 1t is the
same among the lower animals. The
hog is a sort of machine for transform
ing the odds and ends of food into fat.
but the farmer knows beforehand that
a little pig with long legs and snout
will work off the fat as fast as it can
be made. So long legged person sell
dom inclines to obesity.

INDIANS ARE RICH.
Largest Per Capita Wealth of
Any People on Earth.

Cleveland, O., Oct 21-Today's session
of the American Missionary association
was largely devoted to reports on the
Chinese and japanese missions in Porto
Rico and church work in the south. The
chief feature of the session was the re-
port on Indian and Alaskan missions
presented by the Rev. Robert w. Nc
Laughiin, of Grand Rapids, Mich He
emphasized the fact that the Indians are
relatively few in number Gather all the
Indians, he said, from the gulf to the
Canadian line and Atlantic to Pacific,
you will then have a city about the
size of Milwaukee. The negro question
numerically is 40 times as great as the
Indian question. The Indian reservations
today, the speaker continued, cover an
area equal to all the New England
states, New York, New Jersey and hair
of Pennsylvania. The Indian has in the
vaults of the United States government
S24O, 600, 900. If this money should be di-
vided equally among them and 25O,00O
receiving it should go upon their separ-
ate reserves as nation they would con-
stitute per capita the WealthieSt people
upon the face of the earth. The Indian
possesses the most elaborate and extern
sive school system ever established by a
nation for its dependent children. He has
more school houses than he knows what
to do with. Viewed from the standpoint
of governmental administration, the
problem today is really how wisely to do
less for him, how to give him an-appre-
citation of his possessions based upon
character. 1t is here. declared Mr.. Nc
Laughlin, that the United States gov
eminent has failed. 1t has never found
the real Indian. The Christian church
can do for the Indian that which the
civil government can not do

John Camm, resident of Gretna,
La, who served as a lieutenant in the
federal army during the civil war and
aided in the capture of President Davis,
believes he will have no trouble in
proving that he is entitled to the money.
He has in his possession the original
warrant for the arrest of President
Davis. signed by the president of the
United States. His army certificates
are duplicates, but the warrant is in the
original writing.
Only a few months ago Lieutenant
John Camm learned of the money being
in Washington still awaiting a claim
ant. He wrote letter to the depart
ment and recently received a reply from
Secretary Root saying that the money
would be paid upon the forwarding of
the proper Identification papers.
The original reward of 100000 was
paid out in various sums to 154 men of
the First Wisconsin cavalry and nine
teen men who accompanied Captain
Joseph A. Yeoman at the time of the
capture of Davis at Irwinville, Ga,
May TO- 1866. The act also provided
for the payment of eight additional
men. six of whom were unknown at
the time. When Camm learned of the
reward for the men directly under Lieu
tenant Yeoman, commanding the cap
turing party, he Immediately filed his
claim.
Camm's story refutes several we'll
worn stories of how Davis tried TO es-
cape in the Clothes of his wife. Camni
says this was not the case, and ne re-
lates the story of the famous capture.
1--WE were in camp at Macon, Ga, ,
said Lieutenant Camm. 1t was May
I, 1866. when Lieutenant Joseph A. Teo-
man of the First Ohio cavalry was de-
tailed to arrest President Davis. He
took myself and twenty union soldiers
from the Fourth Michigan cavalry and
we set out on the still hunt. Bur none
of US knew the mission at the starr:
Yeoman alone knew what was up and
that we were goi-T - take Jeff Davis,

DAYS Captain Yeoman drew us into line
one day and said: Boys. we are going
to capture Jeff Davis. He has about
seven wagon loads of gold money with
him and we will share it all alike If we
get him..
That put life into the boys and there
was nothing they would not have I'M
dertaken. 1t was bad weather. The
roads were sloppy and the red clay was
sticky and hard to travel At one point
we were mistaken by the Federal lines
and fired upon. 1t was so foggy they
could not see our uniforms. But we
pIodded on and got out of range of Ma
jor General Wilson's men who had fired
on us.
"On May 10 we located the Davis
camp, 1t was 4 o'clock in the afternoon
of that day when we marched up TO the
spot where Davis had concealed HIM
