No Danger When ashore, sail
At Sea- ors fear nothing as
much as wind storm, says Sin
bad. They are not afraid of fire
or earthquakes, but are terrorized
by wind.
"Ever since that Cyclone last
week my slumbers have been fit
full and troubled said Sinbad. "a
feeling of uncertainty possesses
me. When I lie down at night,
| never can tell where I may be
the next morning. In a cyclone,
the only place where a man is safe
is aboard ship. On shore, what
with flying houses, and tumbling
trees, and whirling bricks, and
broken glass, his life isn't worth a
picayune. Aboard ship, every
thing is trimmed down neat and
taut, and it makes no difference
how hard the wind blows. I al
ways pity the poor landlubbers
in a storm.
"When I was with the Asiatic
squadron a shipmate of mine
jumped overheard on dark night
and deserted. We heard afterward
that he had reached Shanghai.
made money and got some land
on the outskirts of the city, where
he bought a wife and settled down.
Nothing was heard from him for
two years. One day when the
ship was in the harbor at Shang-
hal, the wind started to blow, and
in little while the air was full of
pagodas and Chinks all mixed up.
Right in the middle of the storm
a white man wearing only a pair
of trousers climbed up the anchor
chain. His face was green and
his lips were blue, and he was
scared half to death. He was cry
ing. After saluting the flag, he
walked up to an officer and sur
rendered. It was Patterson, the
man who had deserted two years
before. He said he'd rather do
five years in prison than to have
to stay ashore when the wind
blew that way. And he was right,
too.
"People talk about the horrors
OF the sea. They're foolish.
Drowning's the worst that can
happen to you, and what's drown
ing compared to getting killed
with a flying brick from some
chimney three miles away?'

10 should be borne in mind that a
large number Of these 10000 Indians
will never become good citizens. Their
incapacity for business anI disinclin-
alton for a civilized life are already
manifest Their rich inheritances in
lands and annuities are squanderei as
soon as they reach their hands. To
day every Indian has a home a farm
and a share 10 the tribal funds In the
United States treasury. but through
sh.ftlessness and incompetency
thousands OF Iniians within short
while will not have a place 20 lay

This is no wild and causeless fear.

are happening from day 20 day The
most experienced and intelligent of.
cials in the territory have sounded
the alarm, and expressed their
gloomy apprehensions for the future.
Allotment and individual ownership

There Is no question that white
