Cresap turned to me.

now the Six Nations would rise to

now the king of England would have

in my agony, and | stumbled to my

as though it would burst. The woods
had grown dim; the day was already
near its end-this bloody day, this sad
day which had dawned SO hopefully
for all! Suddenly began running
through the forest, gnashing my teeth
and cursing the king whom such serv-
ants as Dunmore served.
Again and again i stumbled and fell,
but rose, not feeling the bruises, crazed
to do vengeance on the wicked men
who outraged God by living. A man
rose up in my path and held me fast

lowing? The Cayugas are loose on the

Other men crept up and dropped in
to cover behind the trees around me-
Some were colonial soldiers, some
farmers from the camp, some hunters
in wool shirts and caps. All at once
saw Colonel Cresap come out into the
trail close by. and, when he perceived
me, he cried: ''Logan's children have
been murdered by Greathouse! The
Cayugas are swarming on the Ohio"
I fastened to his side and begged
him to let me carry his promise to thu
Cayugas that Greathouse should bt
punished and that his colonists woult
retire. He shook his head.

and he turned and shouted out an or

King Leopold in Paris.

Again, and for at least the hundreth
time, the king of the Belgians has
been pacing the boulevards and patro'
nizing the best restaurants and, once
again, officially inbognito. So accus-
toned is the Partisan to his presence
that he is never thrown into emotion
by the spectacle of Leopold" Gas he
is Familiarity called) standing on a
curb stone or staring into a shop win
dow, and it is no longer considered
a wonderful thing to dine in the same
salon as his Majesty. But Leopold
is nevertheless highly popular, and he
is also admired. He is voted fine
mana beau vieillard. and the Pari-
sian is amazed that he can still take
his long early morning walks along the
Champs Elysees. and in spite OF his
age and in spite Of his pronounced
limp. All over Paris goes Leopold"
|, myself, have met him at least half
dozen times in two days always on
foot; but if he rises early he is usually
at home in the Elysee Palace hotel
by midnight
There he occupies the same hand
some suite of rooms which sheltered
the Shah last year; and there he ar
rives, from Brussels or elsewhere. at
the shortest notice. The manager
merely receives a telegram saying that
the king is coming, and all is ready;
and the staff of the hotel knows no
more courteous or amiable guest.
One might say that Leopold" has
made it a principle to be amiable to
everybody. The other evening
gamin, upon spying him approached,
and without the slightest fear cried,
"Ohe. Leopold" The king was
amused; smiled. The king was also
generous; presented the gamin with
a five-franc piece. And, at the present
moment, no doubt. many a gamln IS
in anxious quest of the king. How
ever. the theatrical managers do not
fare so we'll They would persuade
Leopold" to attend" and thus gain
an advertisement, but II ever he visits
a theatre he engages his loge like any
one else and arrives without any pre-
yious announcement.-M. A. ?.

INDlAN SIGNAL TALKS.
Their Famous Sign Language Under
stood by Numerous Tribes.

American Indians have a universal
sign language without regard to tribal
dialects Long distance signals are
sent with lightning-like rapidly, and
messages go between distant points
quicker than ordinary telegraph mes
sages with the messenger boy attach
ment. The especial war signals are IN
six divisions-the pony the blanket,
the mirror, smoke, fire arrows. flint
and steel, and we might add drawings
and sketches. On a distant blum
pony and rider begin to run around IN
a small circle or ring. racing for dear
life. AS if by magic, the plain be-
comes alive with red men. who seem
to come out Of the ground with the
commotion Of an army Of ants; the
signalman holds up his blanket by
each corner, meaning attention, then,
wlg-wagging his blanket, he says
"rhe enemy is discovered one thousand
strong" At last he holds UP his
blanket as sign for the warriors to dis
perse, and they at once melt into the
earth like falling snow in lake.
Another signalman, on distant hill
overlooking the village, flashes the
news with small mirror to the old
men, war women and wives. not for
getting, however, to flash it to the te-
pee of his sweetheart, who suddenly
finds it imperative to go for firewood
in the direction of the well-known
flash. Two straight lines Of blue
smoke going upward indicate a victory,
two being the Indian lucky number,
or, maybe, at night tenderfoot notices
some falling stars in pairs. Burning
arrows" said our guide.
Among the red pipeclay beds and
the bluffs of the Big Muddy river
strange sketches of tomahawks and
broken pipes, drawn with the points OF
knives in the soft and pliable clay, ap-
pear at intervals, letting us know that
war is on. Suddenly coming up on
village, we find that the bucks have.
returned in the night very quietly, the
Indian method of admitting an over
whelming defeat.
In speaking of the mirror signals, an
Indian said: Surprising a few of us
were at talk in the lodge. We got
hungry; one said so-and-so had plenty
to eat I go to his tepee and hint
that it might be well to cook some
thing, and when all is done l go out
side and flash to each friend that it
is ready They come in one by one, as
if by accident, and, of course, are in

The census of 1901 reveals that the

Phillip estimated the native popula-
