Making a Great Map.

About 100 years more will be re-
CURED to complete the work of max
ing a typographical map of the coun-
try, which was begun by the United
States government in 1882. The work
is being carried on in cooperation
with the states, New York, for exam
pie, having appropriated annually
something like $4,000 as it's share.
There has never been typographical
map of the United States published
other than rough sketches. For that
reason the government work will be
one of the largest ever made.

INDIANS FOOLED THEM.
Some Winnebagos Beat White Men at
Their Own Game.

heIr own Game.
A good story comes from the West
of some Winnebago Indians on a re-
servation near Sioux City beating the
white man at his own game. The In
dians have been accustomed to race
their COW ponies against the thorough
breds that the sporting gentry have
imported for the purpose, and, betting
heavily, have lost large sums. Last
month. according to the story, the In
dian bucks raised a subscription fund
and sent one of their number to Ken
lucky, where he bought the best horse
he could get for 1000. The thing was
kept quiet until the next fair, and then
the Indians entered their horse under
the unsuspicious name of Bald
Eagle" They nominated an old buck
of 200 pounds to ride him, and the
bookmakers promptly chalked up odds
of 20 to 1 against the beast, at which
the Indians joyfully placed their bets.
Bald Eagle" won in a walk 1t may
be true.
