APACHES AND TROUT
Why the Indisns DIsdain this Defect
able Fish.

Agent Grouse of the Whiteriver In
dian agency and his predecessor, A. a.
| Armstrong, were speaking yesterday OF
the peculiarities of the Apaches in that
reservation. One of them is their an
tipathy to fish, with which the cold
streams in that part of the country
abound. There are great and innum-
cradle speckled trout; fishermen who
have cast the fly in all parts of the
world say that they never saw finer
trout than can be found in the streams
of the agency. Some of the younger
Indians fish and eat trout, but the old
ones do not. Judge Grouse said that
he did not know why the Indians had
it in for the trout, for he understood
that the fish were regarded as I'M
healthful
Mr.. Armstrong threw more light on
the situation. The objection of the In
dams to the trout was founded on an
old tradition which concerned the
! breaking out of the smallpox among
them. Previous to THAI time the In
dams had eaten the fish, but when the
smallpox came and left its victims
/ pockmarked they connected the catas-
tIophe in some way with the speckled
/ trout which they had eaten. That fish
was thenceforth tabooed as a curse of
the red man.
Judge Grouse spoke of the mysterious
disappearance of little Katie Hatch,
who was lost on the agency not far
! from the Cooley ranch. He related
/ several incidents of the distressing af-
fair which have not yet got into print.
He said that the party had just ar
rived on the reservation from Taylor,
where the parents of the little girl live.
/ girl went to a stream near by and was
wadinC in it. Her brother told her to
come out, and to brighten her he told
! her Indians would get her. She left the
stream and started toward the camp
wagon. which was not more than 100
yards distant and in plain view of the
| stream She was never seen afterward.
/ She was soon missed and a search for
her was begun without delay. 1t was
not apprehended that there would be
anv difficulty in finding her, but when
the night had passed without result the
( search became more extensive. AT one
| time 12O persons were engaged IN IL
I Judge Grouse sent out at dlHereht
| times six details of Indians and the
whole country was secured. 1t is said
that every foot of the region was uhder
/ inspection. In some places the brush
was so dense that men had to cut their
way through. They went through III
parallel lines and near to each other.
| Not even any part of the clothing OF
the little girl was ever found
It is not believed that she wandered
TO a great distance. but that some Nus

milwaukee Graft Exposures.

Milwaukee is more enthusiastically
engaged just now in pursuit, expos
sure and punishment of grafters than
any other American city. Philadelphia
held the center of the stage for a while
but the honor has been surrendered
for the present to the Wisconsin city.
The law officers of Wisconsin have
been searching for graft with unflag-
ging zeal for two years, and an as
tonisningly large number Of grafters
have been indicted, many of whom are
apparently on the road to the peniten-
tiary. The pleasing feature of the sit
uation is that the legal machinery and
those directing it's work are unusu-
ally efficient. and are producing results
which will make all forms of grating
dangerous in Milwaukee in the future.
Seldom have as many grafters been
caught i'm the drag net at one time.
The total number of indictments re-
turned by the grand jury now in ses-
sion is 129, involving thirty-two men.
1t is predicted that the indictments
will number more than 200 before the
work of the grand jury is ended. Dur
ing the last eighteen months 256 true
bills have been returned. duplicating
1O6 persons. Many have already been
found guilty and are now paying the
penalty for their wrong doing. Even

today the court dockets are crowded
with untried cases.
The epidemic of corruption began
some time ago with the granting of the
street railway franchises and extended
to various public operations and con-
tracts in the form of extortion, brib
cry blackmail and other types of bood-
ling. The last indictments returned a
few days ago are typical of the stu
alton. Leading architects are charged
with bribing the supervisors in award
ing contracts for the new county hos
pital building. Only five of the four
teen members of the committee on
public buildings have escaped the
charge of extorting personal profit cut
of the operations. Indictments have
been returned in some cases against
those who have attempted to thwart
the ends of justice by preventing wit
nesses from appearing before TIE
grand jury. The law has been no re-
spector of persons in this particular
instance.
The forms of the Milwaukee graft
1re familiar, but the activity of the
officers of the law and the grand ju-
ries, and the effective awakening of
the public conscience there against
grafters. have had few parallels in
American history. Within the last
two or three years several American
cities have set themselves to the task
of putting their houses in order. but
it is still too early to say whether the
work has been thoroughly done. If
appearances count for anything Mil
waukee is surely accomplishing re-
suits. but we can judge better of their
permanency when we find whether or
not the old gang remains in power af-
ter the present reform wave has sub
sided.

thing that would have happened, since
other persons were in the vicinity, and
the animal would hardly have stopped
there to eat it's victim. This theory
accounts for the failure to find any
clothing.
Others think that she might have
been stolen by Indians. Against this
is the avarice of the Indian, who would
have been attracted by the reward,
which was 500 at first, but was after
ward raised to $500. On the other
hand, the Indians having stolen her and
having kept her so long, might be
afraid to return her ever for the re-
ward. But all hope of recovering her
alive has been abandoned. The reward
at first was offered for her return;
later the reward was offered for her
return alive or for the recovery of her
body. Now it stands for the finding OF
the body alone.

Suspicious Hospitality.

Secretary Taft and his party in ia
express rancor against the United

1t was agreeable to learn thai the

BaIfour gave a luncheon recently in

of commons.
When our turn comes we rather
pride ourselves on treating our foreign
guests well. Prince Henry of Prussia
