fhOre Were Some in 1905 Who Had
Never Heard a Gun Fired.
Even as late as the year 1905 there
were Indians on the North American
continent who had never seen or
heard a gun, had never seen tobacco
smoke, and were capable or worship
ping the white men who controlled
these wonders re Rev. A. G..
Morice tells of some Of the adven-
lures of Sion Fraser, who has stamp
ed his name ON Canada. Father Mo-
rice writes as follows "On landing
at Lake Stuart Frasers men, to i'm
press the natives with a proper idea
of their wonderful resources, fired
volley with their guns, whereupon the
whole crowd of Indians fell PROSTATE
to the ground. To allay their fears
and make friends, tobacco was offer
ed to them. which. OH being tasted,
was found too bitter and thrown
away. Then to show its use, the
crew lighted their pipes, and at the
sight of smoke issuing from their
mouths the people began to whisper
that they must come from the land
of ghosts, since they were still full of
fire wherewith they had been Gre
mated. Pisces Of soap were given TO
the women, who, taking them to be
cakes of fat, set upon crunching them
causing foam and bubbles in the
mouth, which puzzled both actors and
bystanders All these phenomena,
however, were soon explained away,
leaving no suspicion in the native
mind, but a most profound admira-
ton for the foreigners and their
wares"
Sir Alexander Mackenzie had an
idea that the Indians of the far north
west were partly Jewish in origin.
From Lake Athabasca in 1894 he ser

a birch bark canoe, twenty-five feet
long, four and three-quarters feet

with 5000 pounds OF baggage and pro
visions and a crew of nine French
Canadians" He reached the Pacific
coast and returned. he aboriginies
he met were "for the most part pos
sessed of strongly religious instincts"
said he in his report. with regard
to their origin all we are prepared
to state, after a careful survey of
their language, manners and customs
is that they are undoubtedly Of

early history, perhaps, through inter

New Years Day, 1911, in the Cana
dian northwest was described by d.
w. Harmon as follows: This being
the first day of new year, our people
have passed it, according to the GUS
tom of the Canadians in drinking |
and fighting. Some Of the principal |
Indians Of Fraser Lake desired to al |
low them to remain at the fort that |
they might see our people drink. AS |
soon as they began to be a little in
toxicated and to quarrel among them |
selves the natives began to be appre-
hensive that something unpleasant |
might befall them also. They, there |
fore, hid themselves under beds and |
elsewhere, saying that they thought |
the white people had run mad; for
they appeared not to know what they
were about. 1t was the first time !
that they had ever seen person in.

follows carefully the press reports of the
operations of the contending armies, but
very little official news from the orient Is
being transmitted to him.
Drafts of annual reports OF some depart
ment officials have begun to reach the
President but it is yet too early for the re-
ports of the heads of departments, on when
to some extent he bases bis annual MESA &c

WORK OF INGENIOUS REPORTER.
Speech Credited to Senator Hill Was
Spurious-Correction

NEW YORK, September Am investlga-
ton by the Associated Press discloses the
fact that a number of serious errors were
made in it's report of Senator d. b. Hill s
speech at Deposit, n. Y, on Thursday, Au-
gust %. 1t seems that a reporter OF local
democratic paper, upon whom the Asso-
ciated Press depended for report, failed
to attend the meeting, but instead invented
a speech for Senator Hill, which contained
several statements wholly misrepresenting
the senator's views and quite at variance
with his utterances.
Among the phrases thus inserted as
part of the speech was one to the effect
that Senator Hill had charged President
Roosevelt with being "a fraud: Senator
Hill said nothing of the kind. This correc-
tion is made without the knowledge or Mr..
Hill or any of his friends, but in the in
