NAMES OF INDIAN YOUTHS.
MT. Roosevelt Har Placed n Check
Upon an Absurd Practice.

One reform I'm the conduct of the In
dian bureau which has been inaugural
ed by President Roosevelt will receive
universal approval, He has recently
issued an order regarding the names
given to Indians in schools and on the
official records. IL Is well known that
the name bestowed upon the Indian on
his entrance into the vestibule of civil.
cation Is commonly matter of foolish
caprice on the part Of some agent or
teacher or other white person. II IS
common trick to call young Indians Mt
school nfter some famous or notorious
persons. The struggles of the young
aborigfne are often added TO by the
necessity of bearing through life the
name Of Otto Won Bismarck or George
Francis Train or Belva Lockwood or
Carrie Nation or some other equally
well known person. Often the strug-
eler relapses into barba rism under the
mere weight of this odious necessity
still other young Indians are bur
& with false and ignorant English
'rauslatlons of the names given them
10y their parents, like og-That-Jumps-
Around or ole-In-the-Day Ghls great
Indians name should really have been
Ssanslated Eclipse or -MauAfrald-
of-Uis-Horses, and 50 on. With ono
bother and another the young Indians
way in civilization Is likely TO he seri-
ously INSTRUCTED by reason of his name.
And even If he Is given Il simple and
reasonable English name 1t often hap
pens that different surname ia given
to each one of the children Of the same
parents-a process which results In con
fusion IN matters Of Inheritance and
paves the way for much litigation.
The president now desires that chill
dren who enter schools or go upon the
agents rolls shall whenever II is prac-
ticable preserve rs the given names the
Indian names that have beeA given
them, but shall receive az surname
the name of their father. This intro
duces new principle. The Indians
have never had patronymics They
have had matronymics clan names
and family names-but designation has
seldom run with them In the paternal
line.-Detroit Free Press.

Secretary wilson's story.

james Wilson. the secretary of agri
culture has wit Of dry sort. which
makes him one Of the most popular cab
met members.
Shortly after he assumed charge Of
his important department Mr.. Wilson
made some changes in his Office Sen
atorS and congressman came To protest
but all to no avail, because the secre-
tary felt that what he was doing was
IN the interest OF the public service
Finally one Of the employees whose
transfer had been ordered called upon
the secretary. He said
Mr. Secretary, l am afraid that II
you dispense with any more Of our
men it will impair the efficiency Of this
department considered 1t my duty
to say this 10 you and 20 get your
views"
For answer the secretary looked up
at the ceiling and said:
There was once n farmer In low A
who had three fat cats. His barn was
overrun with mice One day he gave
the three tat cats away and got one
new cat-not SO fat lie was never
troubled with mice after that" -Phila-

The invitation was accepted, they
seated themselves about the table,
and the lawyer told his story to two
silent, brcathless auditors.
ITS wonderful story, but can it
ever be estabished?" said Irving,
help)essly.
Fenton was deeply interested; he
was even excited. Here was some
thing worthy Of his mettle.
II think | can do something in this
case" he said, quietly, but with some
thing in his tone that indicated a sub
dued enthusiasm.
The CLEAN in his eye and the com
preston OF his lips were significant.
'cnton had score to pay Off, and it
was not in human nature that he
'ould not he glad at having the OPP
portunity to get even" He was CON
'inced that he was the victim of too
much interest in the Wright case,

other theory; or else there is no
mystery. and he is his fathers muir
derer. So ! would advise you both to
keep his story clearly in mind what
ever You do"
Irving now took his departure.
