Trait Of the Moose Bird.

The moose bird of our Maine woods
is Il curious bird" said an old hunter
You will find 1t in almost any part
OF the Maine countryside more par
ticularly around the hunting camps.
l have seen three or four of them at
time come up and sit on the window
sill and look into the camp soemniy
and wistfully. Throw one piece OF
meat or other food that is too big fol.
him to eat and he'll eat all he can
hold on the spot and then carry or
the other half They say the reason
why the little pigs don't eat 1t all up
Is because they can't balance them
selves. 1t appears to be about the
size Of a bluebird. but really 1t IL small
er. Its plumage isn't quite as brilliant
as that Of bluejay. and 1t ia much
more modest and tasteful in matters

When the anxious owner brought him

cHOCTAW PUNlSHMENTS.
TlHs Lash Ia Used On Indians Guilty
of fMlsdemeanOrs.

Ths Lash Is Used On Indians Guilty
of Misdemeanors.
"While in the Choctaw Nation" said
porter, II saw q sight that impressed
me much. AS everybody knows, the
Indians have long maintained their
tribal courts and enforced their own
laws, but congress several years ago
denied them Jurisdiction over felony
cases and since that time they have
administered the law only in misde-
meanOr cases.
Il arrived In Eagletown, little
town away off the railway in the
neighbOrhood OF the Arkansas line. and
almost instantly l realized that some
thing out of the ordinary was going on.
for the place seemed to swarm with
tawny Indians. Upon inquiry l was
Informed that it was sentence day and
that the Indian court would deal with
malefactors. First one Indian after
another was brought before the Indian
Judge. who conducted the proceedings
In Choctaw, and as fast as one pris
oner was convicted the constable or
sheriff. us the case might be. would
take him out and infiict the punish
ment
I'm all misIemeanor cases they whip
that is, person convicted OF GER
tain OffenSe receives so many lashes.
They would take the prisoner to big
oak tree, into the body Of which had
been driven an iron pin curved at the
end about two feet above the average
mans head, and, after tying his hands
together and stripping the prisoner to
the waist, lie would be stretched along
the tree i'll m upright position, and
then the Indian officer would take his
great rawhide strap. soaked and pre-
pared for the purpose. and apply 1t
with intense vigor on the back of the
unfortunate.
These blows We're dealt only from
the elbow, but the force used was
amply evidenced by the twisting.
sauirming contortions of the victim.
While the blood did not come, great
red welts were plentiful, and the pain
was fully manifested, but not in one
single instance did 1 note an outcry.
The guilty, with traditional stOicism.
took their punishment, but never was
there an Outcry. All about the tree
We're gathered the friends and spec
tators and the manner in which they
guyed the unfortunate was a caution.
They had absolutely no mercy, and l
was informed that the tongue lashings
accompanying the ordeal were regard
ed as being tenfOld worse than the
actual intiiction Of the blows.
1T used to be the case that the In
dian courts or. to speak with greater
accuracy. the tribal courts. had power
to infiict capital punishment. and It
was only just before the present CEN
tury opened that such was denied
them by congress-"

final session of the congress shall c!ose
SATURDAY. May 10, there VIII come a day
of rest and recreation when the foreign
delegates viii place themselves unreserv-
edly IN the hands Of their American asso-
ciates ana will be given entertainment and
instruction along American lines.
a reception committee that includes
among its membership the most prominent
railroad men in the country has been work
ing for months on a program for the en-
tertainment of the delegates, and have
about completed their work. 1t is proposed
to show the Europeans a sample of Ameri-
can hospitality that will stick in their
memories as long as they live. and will
serve a standard for further sessions.
Some portions of the entertainment will
take place during the sessions of the con-
gress, but the major portion of it will
come after the delegates have finished their
labors here. Short trips to interesting
points about Washington will be taken
while the members are here, and beginning
with May y there will start two tours of
the country for the pleasure and enlighten-
ment of the members that is intended to
exceed anything of the kind heretofore at
tempted
OF course the delegates. being railroad
men, are more particularly interested in
railroad matters, and the tours have been
arranged to take in that part of the coun-
try that will be best adapted to show them
what they most wish to see.
The delegates will have the option of
taking either one of these tours. One the
shortest of the two, will include visits to
Altoona, Pittsburg, Buffalo, Schenectady
and Boston, with choice of extending the
trip to Boston. The long tour will carry
the delegates through Altoona, Pittsburg,
Cincinnati. St. Louis. Chicago. Buffalo
Schenectady and Boston, with the choice
of extension to Montreal. These trips Will
both be made special trains and will
occupy one and two weeks respectively.
The manner in which the delegates will be
entertain pi these trims has hepn left
the discretion of the entertainment and re-
ception committee.
That the members of the reception COM
mittee will have no cause for complaint is
evidenced by the character of the reception
committee, which Includes:
