! WAR ON DIME NOVELS.

A crusade against the sale of "dims
novels and sensational literature te
school children is being made by Mrs
Keogh, a member of the board of edl.
cation Of Chicago, and an attorney Of
that city AT the next meeting of the
legislature an effort will be made te
pass laws prohibiting the sale of such
reading matter to school children.
Mrs. Keogk's crusade is the result Of
an investigation which she made among
boys in the county Jail and Bridewell
Conditions which surround the youth
of Our city are appalling, ! says Mrs
Keogh. Not only is the younger ele-
n,el1t of the city endangered by the UNI
restricted sale of vicious books, but
many older persons are inspired to
criminal acts by the scenes presented.
In many Of the school book stores
you will see in the windows flashy pic
lures Of holdups and numbers that
cannot but help to distract the boys
attention, but create desire to emulate
the examples which he thinks are so
heroic

all over the country, telling how much
such reform law is needed. In Hi

organizations that are interested in the

DR.. Emil C. Hirsch, in talk at the
Woman's Club before the Chicago As
ISOLATION Of Collegiate Alumnae, assert
ed that on the shelves OF some private
and pubic libraries were many books
which should promptly be placed in the
furnace.
Dr.. Hirsch further stated that the
school teacher could influence the child
III the selection of his reading matter,
and that ii was incumbent upon the in
structor to look to the moral as well as
the mental development Of his pupils.
Just along these lines the teachers Of
Shreveport have been working for years
Their efforts to build up library for
the children Of the town have not met
with the encouragement that It de-

run for his life Stealthily, as only an In
dian can move his softly moccasined
feet, this arehthief of the thfeving Crow
nation crept over sleeping dogs. and he did
not awaken one. He came to the tent OF
the white horse. He looked it all over. He
went to another tepee and took travois
from its side and carried it and set 1t up
against the horses tent.
A travois Is the wheeliess wagon the In
dians use in the summer. 1t is made of
two long poles with the upper ends near to-
gether; the lower ends spread apart and
drag upon the ground. You see by this de-
scrfption that IL travois is stood on end
1t can be made to serve as a sort of ladder.
Thus the archthief Of the Crows used the
one he put UP against the horse tent. On
it he climbed to the top of the tepee. and
from there he got view Of the interior
looking down between the tent poles that
form the sides OF the chimney hole. He saw
the horse dimly, and even more dimly he
saw the four men beside the horse all
asleep. He climbed upon the tent poles: he
poised his body very nicely in the chimney
opening; he dropped fairly and squarcly
upon the white horses hack.

sides, the bells rang out sharp and clear
and the horse snorted with surprise. But
the pressure of the thef's heels urged the
animal forward, and as he took one step
the man reached out and slit cash straight
up and down through the fastened door,
which was only buckskin. The four In
dians leaped to their feet but the horse
and his captor were now out In the open
ground and like the wind shot away from
the camp. The watchers ran and yelled,
the dogs barked. the whole tribe rushed
out of the tents, and every man sprang to
his horse! But what was the use? There
was no horse that could catch the animal,
and so they all turned sadly home again
after a mad ride of mile or two The
thief rode In triumph home to the tents of
the Crows, and from that day his tribe
owned the great white horse and his fame
and their riches increased.

and If II can be successfully done those saw
age people think ii very honorable. even
glorious. The Blackfeet, therefore, kept the
wonderful race horse in a tent at night.
They did not dare leave him out with their
other horses. They bought string of bells
at the Hudson Bay Company's nearest fort,
put the bells around the horses neck. tied
him to tepee pole inside a big tepee and
set four men to sleep in the tent with him.
This was the rule every night, and on no
night did the men forget to close the door
of the tepee and ''cinch" 1t tight with
thongs of buckskin. Whoever could steal
that big white beauty of horse had to be
a very clever thief. they thought; but, in
truth, they never dreamed that he could
be stolen.
The smartest thief among the Crow In
dams told his chief and the head men that
he was going to try to get that horse away
from the Blackfeet. One evening he crawled
through the grass to the tall bluff along the
Bow river (north of our Idaho, think was

STOLE INDIANS RACING HORSE.
| Greatest Thief of the Grow Tribe Sc

From St Nicholas
All Indians who use horses are very fond
OF horse racing, and not only race their
own horses against one another, but they
race their own against those of other
tribes-and used to do this even In the
Wild era of the buffalo and of constant war
fare. Even at that time friendly tribes and
hands oined In the two grand buffalo hunts
of each year. and, after the hunting was
over. pitted the fastest horses OF the various
bands ore against the other AT one time.
not so very long ago. the Blackfeet had
the fastest horse of which any one could
tell or had seen. He was source Of wealth
to the tribe, for Indians are very fond OF
betting and this animal always won every
thing that was bet against him. You can
imagine how proud the Blackfeet were of
this creature. You can also imagine how
enyious were the Stoneys, the Grows. the

In some instances these morbid fears pass

man who complains that one side OF her
Sody is bigger than the other after taking

Its manifestations are wonderful and
many; the hysterical fit, resembling epil-
