NAMES OF THE INDIANS.
Curious Combinations from Which
Some Of Them Are Taken and
Made Up.

Maj. Frank Terry, who is in charge
of the Indian school on the Puyallup
reservation, is thus quoted by the Ia
coma Ledger: TRANSACTIONS of Indian
names, as rule, have been unsatisfac-
tory, though there are exceptions. The
case is reported from the Pawnee re-
servation, Oklahoma, Of an Indian
named Coo-rux-ruh-a-bear
The literal Interpretation of his name
as given to me Is 'Fearing-a-bear-that-
is-wild.' With this Interpretation the
agent named him Fearing B. Wilde
LAS the Indian grows he commits
acts from time to time, each of which
gives him new name. For example,
ne may see a bear and run screaming
to a tepee. The folks laugh at him and
call him 'Afraid-of-a-bear.' If he braids
In his hair yellow feather which he
has plucked from the tail of an eagle, he
may be called 'Eagle-til,' 'Eagle-feath-
er, 'Yellow-tail,' Yellow-feather' If
he gives it to his friend he will be known
as 'Gives-feather,' but If he keeps it..
when asked for it, he becomes Keeps
the-yellow-feather,' if he has more than
one leather. The plan resorted to in
some quarters of discarding the Indian
names and fitting the Indians out with
names that are purely English has not
worked well, for those selected, in many
cases, are names illustrious in American
history, and this has caused the Indians
to become the butt Of many a joke. Will
liam Penn, Fftzhugh Lee, David B. Hill
and William Shakespeare are the names

Fish Distinguish Sounds.

A Spanish naturalist, DR.. Ribera, has
proved that fish can hear and distinguish
sounds and words. Concealing himself
behind bush, he taught the carp in a
pond to come to the surface for food
every time he spoke certain sentence.
To other words. not associated with
feeding, they paid no attention.

Secret Police of Paris,

The secret police of Paris is quite

New Method Avoids Waste.

BY new method pigments Of metal
lie oxides are produced by burning in
special flues the waste vapors from
electric reduction furnaces. The vary
ing mixtures from different ores give a
great variety of colors. waste is avoid
ed, and the products are in extremely
fine powder without grinding.

THE GERMS OF HUMAN ILLS,
Progress in the Study of Bacteria as
the Cause of Various
Diseases.

A new conception of disease or of
the cause Of disease in man makes slow
progress. This was strikingly demon
strated, says Gary N. Calkins, in
Protocol and Disease" in Century
when Pasteur first announced that many
human ills are caused by living organ
isms, and the fight which he and Lister
waged to establish the germ theory is
still fresh in the minds of scientific men.
Little by little they and their followers
made Roadway against the opposition!
and disease after disease was shown to
be caused by the minute bacteria.
To much less extent the same con-
servatism is seen to-day in the wide
spread opposition to the protocol theory
of disease-less, because the battle fol
the germ theory in general need not be
refought. With malaria the fight has
been won; with smallpox and yellow
fever the battle is now on, and time is
needed to overcome the present oppost:
tion-an opposition based upon the same
grounds as that of 80 years ago, name
ly, that the foreign structures found In
the human body and regarded as or
ganisms are the effect of the disease and
not its cause. With bacteria such op-
position was overcome by the culture
methods introduced by Koch. In proto-
goa the difficulties of obtaining similar
cultures are far greater, and this in part
explains the failures to cultivate the
malaria organisms or the organism OF
smallpox by the usual archaeological
methods. 1t is highly probable, how
over, that when as much attention is
given to the study of disease-causins
protocol as is now given to that Of BAG
terra, all these difficulties will be over
come, and that as our knowledge Of this
group increases we shall find and con-
troll many more causes Of human dis
ease.

CABINET CHANGES.
No Great Republican Leader In Pres
ident's Council.

President Roosevelt has evidently
abanloned the eastern states as 1.-The
enemy's country and Is now looking
to the west alone for electoral votes.
In reconstructing his cabinet only
Moody of Massachusetts remains from
any state east of the Alleghanies, I'M
less John Hay, who claims to belong
to the District Of Columbia. but is real
~ an Ohio man, is so considered.
There is now no great Republican lead
er in the cabinet All are accidents,
nonentities or young men that Presi-
dent Roosevelt has selected over the
heads of those who. have been consid-
cred fit by former presidents to hold
the important Office of cabinet min
lister.
The latest discovery, Paul Morton,
who is secretary of the navy, is a high
official Of the Atchison. Topeka and!
Santa Fe railroad. 1t is reported that
he has been granted leave of absence
from his railroad duties and will re-
turn to them after few months. He
is said to be a late convert to Repub-
licanism, and his reward is none too
great, for any one that can be brought
to stomach and indorse the present
policies Of that party should be am
ply recompensed.

A Valuable Pl Edge.

The Democratic party stands committed
to the principles of civil service reform.
and we demand their honest. just and Inn
partial enforcement
This is the most explicit and COM
plete committal on this subject that
the Democratic party has made in any
national convention. 1t is sound Dem
ocratfc doctrine, and the committal of
the Democratic party to 1t by the con-
vention. with the nomination of can
didate in full sympathy with it, is a
matter for congratulation to all good
citizens.-New York Times.

THE LEAvEN WORKING.
Tariff Reform Idea Has still Many
Supporters In Iowa.

The National Manufacturers associ-
alton at it's late meeting at Pittsburg
committed itself to the policy of reel
procity in competitive products. A res
olution was adopted calling for a per
manent tariff and reciprocity commits
sion and for presidential authority to
issue proclamations giving effect to reel
procity treaties. The Des AIOines Reg
lister concludes that
'Had the manufacturers idea been
incorporated in the Dingley bill every
one Of the Kasson trade arrangements
would today be i'll full operation, to the
great advantage Of American indus
try"
President Roosevelt or Secretary Cor
telyou will have to bring pressure to
bear upon this "Iowa idea" enthusiast
or the leaven of tariff reform will start
to working again in Iowa and may be-
come manageable Corporation in
duence and railroad money were too
much for the Register and Governor
Cummins when the delegates to the
Republican convention were elected,
but the voters may yet show, even in
that trust ruled state, that high tariff
prices and railroad monopoly are more
than they will submit to.
