How the Indian Walks.

Forest and Stream.
 A woodsman walks with rolling motion, his hips swaying an inch or more to the stepping side, and his pace is correspondingly long. This hip action may be noticed to an exagger- ated degree in the stride of pro- fessional pedestrian, but the latter walks with heel and toe step. where as an Indians or sailors step is moro nearly flatfooted. In the latter case the centre of gravity Is covered by the whole foot. The boise is as secure as that of rope walker. The toes are pointed straight forward or even a trifle inward, so that the inside of the heel, the outside of the ball of the foot and tine smaller toes. all do their shares of work and assist in balancing. Walking in the woods in this manner, one Is not likely. either. to trip over projecting roots. stones, and other traps as he would if the feet

Irrigation In North Dakota.

WILLlsToN, N. D., Sept. 1S.-A
board of consulting engineers con-
vened here today to consider designs
for the Williston, Nesson and Buford.
Trenton pumping projects, by which
it is planned to reclaim large areas
Of arid and semi. arid lands in North
Dakota. The banks of the Missouri
river, between Fort Buford and Bis.
marck, 300 miles, have been carefully
Investigated and it 10 believed to be
feasible to lift the water OF the river
to the low aats by pumping. Extreme.
ly favorable features are found in the
abund ance OF water and In the cheap
and plentiful supply OF fuel. The VIII.
listoa project % planned will cover
approximately $1,000 acres, the Bu-
ford Trenton project Is. 700 acres, and
the Nesson project q, 900 acres.

Millions Of Acres For Sale.

AUSTIN, Texas, Sept. l6.-About
5000, 900 acres of state lands, situated
In various parts Of the state, and
heretofore mostly under lease for cat
tie grazing purposes, were placed on
the market for actual settlers under q
law passed by the last session OF the
legislature, today. The cattle men
have been strongly opposed to the
sale of these lands and predict that
the withdrawal of them from pasture
purposes will work great injury to the
cattle industry of this state.
Under the law which goes into effect
today, the state lands are to be sold
to actual settlers in tracts OF from one
to eight sections. The price is 81 an
acre. payable IL 10 annual payments,
with per cent. interest. Each pur-
chase must live upon the land for
three years to acquire title After the
sale of these lands the state will still
own about $1,000, 900 acres, which is
under lease to cattle men.

Naval War On Lake Eric.

ERIE, Pa, Sept. l8.-The climax oil
the fish tug battles of the past week
was reached in Lake Erie today, when
the Canadian cruiser Vigilant riddled
the big steam tug Harry &. Barnhurst
with small shells from the rifle in the
patrol boat. Captain Nick Fasle, Of
the tug, admitted after he escaped that
the Vigilant could have sent her to
the bottom il Captain Dunno had SO
desired. They ran more than eight
miles under a full head OF steam before
they crossed the boundary line and
escaped the Can adams.
The Barnhurst, according to Cap.
tain Fasle, was about five miles over
the line drawing nets, when the Vigi.
liant appeared. The other Lake Erie

Investigating Insurance Companies.

New YORK, Sept. l4.-When the in
surance investigation opened today
the first witness was Fred Cromwell,
treasurer of the Mutual Life Insur-
ance company, who continued his ex.
plan ations OF syndicate opera rations in
which the Mutual Lite participated.
Balances Of q, 900, 900 to $40, 900, 900,
maintained in the National Bank of
Commerce of New York In 1904, was
explained by Mr.. Cromwell, who said
the reason for keeping such large
sums in that bank was that the bank
paid the company per cent. interest,
while the insurance company could
not have loaned the money on call at
that rate.
The Mutual Life being large stock.
holder in the bank, was naturally
favorably disposed toward maintain.
ing large balance there, especially
when the money was not needed. Mr..
Cromwell, when questioned further on
the subject, said that later when the
market rate for money on call was 81
per cent. the Mutual Life Insurance
company's deposit was still kept In
the National Bank of Commerce at
per cent.
