and mountain brigands shot through
Its stiff leathern curtains. Generals
Sherman and Sheridan and President
Garfield rode in this old coach during

ON the RESERVATION.

Doane Robinson, says the Yer
million Republican, who has re-
turned from a trip over the Rose
bud and other Indian reservations
of the state, reports having found
a complete revolution of the In
dian methods IN two years. Ra-
tions are no longer ISSUED to any
able bodied Indians. The gov
ernment provides employment at
s1.25 day to all who will work,
and in consequence the entire male
population is engaged in building
roads and reservoirs all over the
reservation.
He describes English education
among the Indians as compulsory
in way tnat compels. If a child
is absent from school the teacher
reports him to the police and next
day he attends under the escort of
bluecoat. All the rising gener-
alton is English speaking, and a
few years will see English the pre-
vailing language.
"The most efficient policeman
in the world" says Mr.. Robinson,
lis the Sioux Indian. He is proud
of his uniform and has never been
known to disgrace it. He will
fearlessly lay down his life in the
discharge of his duty, and no ex-
penditure of effort or sacrifice of
comfort is too great in carrying
out an order"
The Rosebud reservation is des-
cribed as varying from rich, fertile
prairie to barren buttes and sand
hills. 1t is fairly we'll watered,
and all the streams are bordered
with fine timber, chiefly elm,

feet long by $50 feet wide and is the
largest structure ever provided at an
exposition by the federal government.
1t is distinguished from all the other
large buildings at the Exposition by
the steel truss construction, the entire
roof being supported by steel arches,
forming splendid domed ceiling.
In this building are installed the ex-
hibits of all the executive departments
of the government. The building is a
vast storehouse of an endless variety
of treasures dear to the heart of every
true American. Precious documents
are to be seen here, and the autographs

It's hard lesson to learn that people
after all are only folks. A Texas man,
starting his boy out on "career" away
from home, said to him: "You may see
a heap of people who have got more
money than you have; heap of people
who have got more brains and more
success. Don't worry about that.
Whenever y u meet a man who allows
he's your superior, you just look at him
and say to yourself: after all, you're
just folks You want to remember for
yourself, too, that you're just folks. "
That's often the trouble. We look at
other people and wonder at the great
stakes for which they are playing and
We say to ourselves: "It's no use for a
peewee like me to go against big game
like that" aud SO we spend our lives
eating at the lunch counter instead of
dining at the club. We are all folks
playing the same kind of game, only
playing it on different scales. Now,

not only smashes big hole through the
latter, but transforms much of the in
terror of the aft into mass of wreck
age. Thus it is not surprising to learn
that the Russian ships torpedoed by the
Japanese at Port Arthur were beached
TO save them from sinking. Some OF the
advantages of the torpedo boat are that
they are cheap, costing only $4,000 or
100000, and that one can be built IN
six months, whereas a battleship re-
quires three years. In the American
navy each battleship carries on her deck
one or two small torpedo boats, which
cost only about $4,000 apiece. Thus
the same arrangement is adopted in the
Japanese navy feet, whenever it may
be desired, can let loose swarm of
floating hornets to harass the enemy.
When three or more torpedo boats, in
the night, bear down upon battleship
or cruiser from as many different direc-
tions, it is not easy to destroy them
quickly enough Vulnerable though they
are) to prevent one Of them from launch
ing its proiectile successfully. A single
hit scored, and the proudest armored
vessel-a floating mass of machinery
that cost sc, 100000 to build and equip
is transformed in moment into an iron
coffin, carrying officers and crew to the
bottom.
