Christianity Stands the Test.
Experience is the great teacher, and

Judgment seat all theories must come

OF Jesus Christ is this, that it stands

as to its affording clew to the myster-

man has but to live it to know with an
unshakable assurance that God Is what
Jesus said he was and that life Is
what he says 1t is.-Rev. Charles Fred

the services of the spirit Of t b e
Sun should be called for this pur-
pose, and message to the effect
was sent him in which he was di-
rected to come on the big Earth
and to be conceived and born of q
certain woman. In the course OF
time the child was born, and it
was boy. After their child had
become several years Of age he
accompanied a hunting expedition:
during this trip a child died in a
village near by, and it's parents
who were reluctant about laying
it's body away, resolved to take it
back to their village. The Sun
spirit ,s-een was playing around a
fire when his supposed father ap-
preached him, and the child look
ing up said; "My father, | pity
my people, the latter replied say
ing, My son, we all pity them, "
the child spoke again saying,
"My father, l shall give the child
who is dead new life.'' His IA
ther rebuked him for saying this
but the boy insisted that he would,
if his directions were followed
bring the child to life. My ia
ther" he said, ''you call all the
old ann wise men of the tribe, aft

of sufficient size to accommodate
them, and place the body OF the
dead child in the centre Of the
lodge. But you must be sure to

trance will be facing the East.
After you have done as | have di-
rected, all the men that will be
inside of the lodge must smoke
their pipes Having given these
directions the boy disappeared
from the village, but his directions
were followed implicitly. And
while the wise men were sitting
in the large lodge, strange noises
were heard in an Easterly direc-
tion, and the wise men looking
that way saw large bear ap-
preaching and when it had reached
the enterance Of the lodge it assum-
ed the form of a boy, and behold it
was the boy who had directed the
big lodge to be built. Upon en-
tering the lodge he ran around to
the left side OF the lodge exclaim-
ing ''whe, whe, whe, whe," at
every step. In his hands he held u
Meda-wah-yaun (medicine sack),
and when he had made complete
circle of the lodge he stopped and
making motion towards the body
of the dead child with the Media
wah-yaun which he held in his
hands, he exclaimed, "whay, ,ho, no,

and after this had been repeated
the fourth time the dead child came
to life. The boy then to Q k

Their Customs and Traditions.
AS HANDED DOWN FOR CENTURIES
FROM FATHER TO SON.
By the Sages.
Also from the Grand Sachem and Medicine
Seer Of the White Earth 0jibwas.

For sometime past we ha V G
omitted to publish the Way-nah-
bozho legend, and while we have
not been able to secure all OF the
legend, we intend, in a short time,
to publish as much Of it as we
have and may be able to secure.
In the mean time we will furnish
our readers with a few of the old
tribal customs of the Chippewas
as still practiced among o m e
branches of the tribe, one of which
is the me -da-we-win or grand me-
dicine.
1t is well known that among
some of the aboriginal tribes OF
North America there exists an
order which has been by many
considered as being similar to
freemasonary. Not being familiar
with either of these orders we are
unable to say in what manner the
similarity exists, neither have we
learned definately the grounds adj
yanced for such a proposition.
We have been informed that free
masonary is secret order, and
from meagre knowledge acquired
by us thus far regarding the order
existing among the Indians. and
which is known as the Meda-we-
win or Grand Medicine, we cam
not form any just conclusion that
a marked similarity exists. The
apparent willingness Of the medi-
cine priests and patriarchs Of the
tribe to give us such information
as we desired, regarding the orr
gin and rites of the Media we win,
assured us that in some respects
at least it could not be, strictly
speaking, considered a sec ere
order.
In this number of the ToMA-
HAWK we will commence treatise
on the origin, rites, ETC., Of the
Meda-we- win, as given to us sew
eral'years since by some of the old
priests of the order.
TRADITIONAL STATEMENT OF THE
ORIGIN OF THE GRAND MEDICINE.
At the beginning of the big
Earth there existed on it only four
persons, two men and two women,
who had not the power to think,
or to discriminate between right
and wrong; the Great Spirit final.
ly gave them the power to see,
think and to learn the d III t e 5
which have been imposed upor
mankind. When they had acquir.
ed knowledge of these duties the
population of the Earth began to
increase, and it soon became quite
, numerous. 1t was at this time
that the Great Spirit observec

! and He frequently saw them cry
ing, and some of their number:
were being laid away in trees aft
er being wrapped up in mats, ant
it became apparent to Him tina
! this deep distress and sorrow wa.
/, caused by disease and death
which threatened to anihilate then
unless He made some provision
looking to their salvation.
After considering for some time
! as to what would be best for tn
Indians, the Great Spirit callet
four of the leading spirits from tin
different layers of the Earth t
consult with them. After He hat
impaired to these S pirits S Hi
plans, He was at a loss in wha
manner to convey them to the In
dians on the big Earth, as his mes
sage was of too much importanc
to convey it to them in h e i
dreams, it was finally decided tina

To ADMINISTER
Contest for Estate of
Miss I. D. Clark Is
Imminent.

A contest over the estate left by the
late Miss Isabella D. Clark, who COM
mitted suicide at the McNutt Hospital on
September 8. is likely to occur. judging
by the proceedings that took place in the
Superior Court yesterday.
DR.. w. T. McNutt. a friend of long
standing of Miss Clark, again appeared
before Judge Kerrigan and applied for
special letters of administration on the
half-million dollar estate left by the de-
ceased woman, but his application was
opposed by ex-Judge Charles w. Slack,
who appeared on behalf of Mrs. Roys n.
Strohn and Mrs. John G. Carter, sisters
of the deceased. A similar protest was
made by Attorney F. Michael. represent
ing Mrs. Jerome A Hart, another sister
Of Miss Clark.
Judge Kerrigan announced that when
Dr. McNutt applied for letters of admin
istration on the estate the day after Miss
Clark committed suicide, he was of the
opinion that a contest was not imminent
and had therefore assigned the case 10
his own court, not being informed that
relatives were to appear in the matter,
but that the estate was simply to be di-
vided in accordance with the will which
Miss Clark is supposed to have made just
previous to her self-destruction.
Under the circumstances Judge Kerri-
gan declined TO grant the request of DR..
AcNutt and decided that the matter
should be sent to one of the probate
courts and assigned it to Judge Coffey.
Maxwell McNutt, in making the appli-
cation on behalf Of DIR. McNutt. informed
the court that the property belonging to
Miss Clark included the Studebaker build
ing, recently destroyed by fire, and that
an administrator of the estate was ne ces-
sary in order to see that immediate re-
pairs 10 the damaged building might be
carried out.
Ex-Judge Slack was of opinion that
there was no immediate necessity for the
application for an administrators and that
propriety demanded that an administrator
should not be appointed until the arrival
Of the relatives of the deceased woman in
this city. The attorney for the relatives
had so informed Dr. McNutt on the dav
Of Miss Clark's death, but his sugges-
tions were not needed and the application
for letters of administration was made
the next day and postponed until yester-
day by the court.
Under the Will made by Miss Clark
and which is in the possession of Dr. Nc
Mutt, the entire estate, with the excep-
tion Of two small bequests, is left to Mrs.
StrOhn. That lady and her husband ar
rived in this city Sunday night and the
two other sisters of Miss Clark are ex-
pected to come here and contest the will.
which has not yet been filed by DR.. Nc
Mutt.
The application of DR. McNutt for spe-
cial letters Of administration on the estate
of Miss Clark will come up before Judge
Coffey this morning.
