Typical Indians.

From Scribners Magazine.
The northwest plains Indian is, to the
average person, the typical American In
dian, the Indian of our schoolday books
powerful of physique, statuesque, gor-
geous in dress, with the bravery of the
firm believer in predestination. The con-
stant fearless hunting and slaughtering
of the buffalo trained him to the great
est physical endurance, and gave an in
bred desire for bloodshed. Thousands OF
peace-loving, observation-disclosures Indians
might climb down from their cliff-perched
homes, till their miniature farms, attend
their flocks and at nighttime climb back
nm the winding stairs TO their home in
the clouds, and attract no attention But
if a fierce band of Sioux rushed down on
a hapless emigrant train the world soon
learned of 1t.
The culture of all primitive peoples is
necessarily determined by their environ
ment This, of course, means that all
plains trbes-though speaking score OF
languages-were, In life and manner,
broadly alike. They were buffalo-hunting
Indians and only in rare cases did they
give any attention to agriculture. Buffalo
meat was their food, and the by-products
their clothing, tools and implements.
THE Mains tribes in earlier times were
certainiv true nomads. For a time, in
the depths of winter, they camped In the
shelter of some forest along the streams.
other than that, wherever roamed herd
of buffalo there also wandered the bands
of northern Indians. The very existence
of these tribes seemed bound to that of
the buffalo. From the skins their lodges
were built. With the hair on the hides
furnished the robes for the body, as well
as mattresses and bed coverings The
meat prepared In many ways with the
addition of a few roots and berries, fur
n,shed their entire food. Advancing civili-
| cation has swept these countless herds
| from the race of the plains and left their
! human companions stranded.

Wouldn't Desert Her.
n the Weekly Telegraph.

From the Weekly Telegraph.
A certain lady in the north of Scotland
had in her employment a crusty old
coachman long in the service of her fam
lily who gave her no end of annoyance by
an imperious disregard of her instruc-
tions. At length, the situation becoming
unbearable, the mistress determined to
see what effect dismissal would have
upon him. Accordingly she said: IT can
not stand this any longer, you must seek
another place at the end of the month
you leave my service"
At these words an expression of grim
amusement spread over the eountenance
of the servant, but the characteristic
loyalty asserted itself. ma, ma, my lady"
said he, IT drove you to the kirk to be
baptized. 1 drove you to your marriage,
and I'll stay to drive you to your
funeral"

IN BEHALF OF DISTRICT NURSING

The movement to organize the District
Nursing here is meeting with hearty
support The Commercial club has just
contributed 500 towards its maintenance.
the United Charities have donated 500
and the Kings Daughters have guaran-
teed $40 a year.
If the matter is taken up by the pas
tors and rectors of the various churches
here-churches of every denomination
there will then be no uncertainty as to its
becoming a permanent factor In the
philanthropic work of Birmingham. Every
church so far locks after it's own sick and
poor If they will unite in supporting this
movement it will not only be great as
sistance to them but it will greatly aid
the organization. In fact, it is hoped that
every club and organization here will take
a hand at once In the matter look Into 1t
and consider the good 1t has Invariably
accomplished in every city and the good
It will accomplish here.

ton, which would develop creative and

BREAK UP CRIMINAL GANG
Police Arrest Number of Negroes
Charged With Various
Grimes

In the arrest of Will Hutchinson by
Chief of Police Rose of Santa Bar
bara yesterday afternoon the local po-
lice believe that one of the worst
gangs of negro criminals that have
invested Los Angeles in some time
has been broken up. From accurate
information received by the local po-
lice and dispatched throughout the
state the Santa Barbara police were
able to recognize Hutchinson.
About week ago Officer Hosck was
put in charge of a robbery case in
which w. A. Jones was relieved Of
his valuables in the rear of las South
San Pedro street by some negroes
Stonewall Jackson was the first negro
arrested. He was held to the superior
court in the sum of $4,000 on Decem-
Der 80.
Kate Butler, a negress, was the next
one arrested and following her arrest
came the arrest of Hutchinson. Late
yesterday afternoon Nellie Hill was ar
rested by Detectives Ritch, Rico, Tala-
nantes and officer Hosick. From
what can be gained from the officers
il is learned that they believe these
negroes are responsible for numerous
crimes.

BIG DEMAND FOR DIAMONDS
Factories at Amsterdam Rushed to
Their Limit by American Orders.
Wages Increased
Special to The Herald.

WASHINGTON, Jan. 2.-The de-
mand for diamonds has increased so
rapidly during the present year, writes
Consul Hill, at Amsterdam, that manu-
facturers have been compelled to raise
wages again and again in order to get
goods out as fast as possible.
All the factories are working to their
utmost capacity In order to satisfy their
clients. as invariably the goods are
bought up in the rough long before
they are finished. Especially In small
goods have the workmen's wages
brought about such a change during
the last eight months that prices in
some instances have increased as much
as 40 per cent.
The steady demand for the rough, as
we'll as the cut material, finally cul-
minated in the advance of all rough
goods of about per cent toward the
end of August by the London syndicate.
but even this advance failed to stop the
ever increasing amount of orders at
Amsterdam. Today there are again
rumors Of prospective rises.
