4 years old, was carried away.
When Anderson arrived in the West he
learned these facts. but could find no trace
of the child and was told by those familiar
with the Indian character that the girl
had undoubtedly been killed. Yesterday
he met band of begging Crees near Kalis-
pcll and he engaged Them In conversation.
While Anderson was talking TO the Indians
a sauaw with light hair appeared. He
questioned her, and she told him that all
they were white like Anderson and that
they were killed. She had lived with the
Indians ever since, and was the widow OF
one of the members OF the tribe.
She knew nothing else about herself
except that she still possessed baby finger

SPRINoYIELD. Mass, April 1s.-The Re-
publican says that President Roosevelt is
ambitious TO succeed President Eliot OF
Harvard University. In an editorial ar
ticle to-day the Republican says:

when DR.. Eliot gets through has long been a
source Of speculation. He will be 90 years

youth Dr. Eliot Is without q superior among

that the President of the United States

to secure for him. to become president OF

Of putting Mr.. Roosevelt at the head OF

to see what a lift to athletics there must
be in such a programme. There would
be a 'rustler' in command at Cambridge.
The only living ex-Presdent OF the United
States, Mr.. Cleveland. has been partially
annexed to Princeton University; this
suggestion OF Roosevelt for Harvard would
