Recently the Journal gave an ac-
count Of the death Of yellow Ham
mer one of the few remaining Mo-
doc Indians, who was killed by light
ming while riding In his wagon along
a street in Oswego. The following
unique biography. or obituary, Of Yel-
low Hammer Is given by the Baxter
Springs News:
yellow Hammer was a good Indian
before lie died and was one Of the
features Of the big Baxter reunion,
where he annually gathered the rem
nant Of his tribe and held the fami-
liar war dances of mis- people in a big
Coglizer tent to the admiration and
enjoyment Of thousands of visitors.
yellow Hammer was Of royal
blood, being a younger brother Of
Shack-Nasty Jim and first cousin to
Princess Mary. When he was
brought here from the lava beds Of
Oregon, after his tribe had been al.
most obllterated in their war with the
United States, Yellow Hammer soon
became reconeiled to civilization,
threw of his blanket and feathers,
and took up the white mans burden
with store clothes, a plug hat and a
white woman for Q wife. He Joined
the Quakers at first, but said they
were not quick enough for him, and
so he went into farming and horse
trading, with an occasional venture In
/ the Wild West show business. 81
"The deceased married a white wo-
man of good family and was an afec.
tionate father, a kind and indulgeni
| husband, a fair Christian, a good med
icine man and a moderate drinker
In appearance he resembled Paderew
ski, and like him was quite efficient
on the Indian drum or tOm-toIn. He
was always pleasant, affable, cheerful
and a great favorlte with the chill
dren; he was remarkable for his in
dustry and indefatlgable energy, al
ways willing to work, and never Dor
rowing or asking a dollar in charity
He set an example many others Nigh
follow, and will be missed by his ma
tion more than any other man in It.

no consider the Pew ouestion

A meeting of the Presbyterian
congregation will be held in the
lecture room Monday evening, May
I'd, at 7.30 o'clock to consider the
question of seating the audience
room with pews. For many years
chairs have been used, ana, though
reasonably comfortable, they are
not fully in accord with the popu-
lar idea as to how a church should
be furnished. The chairs have
served their day and generation ard
were purchased at time when the
congregation had many other and
apparently more imperious demands
on it's generosity, such as finishing
and making the large audience
room habitable. Many minor wants
have since been supplied and the
pew question has remained in abey-
ance. AS it is a matter of much
Importance and will involve consid-
cradle expense it is very desirable
that there should be a full attend
ance of the congregation that the
subject may be generally discussed.

but some plants are weak and
others strong.

same care but some grow big
md strong while others stay
mall and weak.
SCOTS Emulsion offers an
sasy way out of the difficulty.

Climbing Mountains

Is a fascinating and in%vlgorat1ng past
time. 1t develops not the body only,
but the mind. The Alpine Peaks OF
Switzerland have their counterpart in
our W country, in the Sierras, the
Cascades, and parts of the Rockies.
The greatest glacial peak of the
United States Is Mt. Rainier, in Wash
ington, more than 14,500 feet high.
This magnificent mountain has is or
more giant glaciers creeping down It's
sides and discharging their glacial
detritus into the Columbia river or
Puget sound.
A climb to the summit Of this peak
is a mountaineering feat worthy OF
any m%ountaineer. For rs cents A. M.

the Northern Pacific railway, St. Paul,
Minn.-w1ll send to any address an H.
Illustrated booklet called climbing

association built houses and then sold

While that is practically the result
the method must be viewed from an

The association is not a charitable
organization-it is a business con
Germ, intended to make money in three
ways: First, by providing a safe in
vestment for local capital; second
by saving money for local home
builders; third, by retaining both the
earnings and savings in Ballings.
