NAMING OF THE INDIANS.
The Difficulty of Finding Suitable
 Names for Their Absurd ~ . e- Ideas. -.%

Under instructions from President Roosevelt Dr. Charles A. Eastman, a Sioux Indian, has renamed mora than 1o, 900 Sioux with family names, says a writer in the World To-day, in order to make the inheritance of land more simple and secure. -a
 Where possible he has kept the original Sioux name of some member of a family--as in bestowing the name "Matoska," meaning White Bear" on the family of that chief. Sometimes the combination of wife's name and husbands has made a musical name. as "Winona Otana." The favorite name for women means "she who has a beautiful home" which Dr. Eastman has anglicized in the patronymic "Goodhouse."
 But by far the hardest task is In finding new names for the absurdities of Indian nomenclature. Bob Tailed Coyote" was a young Indian who has come to prefer himself as "Robert T. Wolf" After a long struggle with Rotten Pumpkin" Dr. Eastman has at last recorded the owner of the name on the tribal records under the non- committal title of Robert Pumpkin"

WATERBURY WOMAN
Badly Burned at Rridgeport When n
 Lamp Exploded.

v
 Lamp Exploded.
 Bridgeport, April 6.--Whue sey- eral persons were aitting about a ta- hle eating lunch at o'clock this morning in the apartments of Miss Marie K. Riveria, 87 State street, In the Berkshire flats. a large kerosene lamp was knocked from the table. setting fire to the clothing Of Miss Kittie Cross, aged IS.
 The young woman was enveloped in flames in an instant, and Charles Kinch, who was eating with Miss Cross and Miss Riveria, grabbed q pillow and some bed clothes and suc- ceeded in smothering the flames. He undoubtedly saved the life of the young woman, but was badly burn ed on both hands in the act. Miss Cross was badly burned on the left arm, and on both legs from the ankles to the knees.
 The lamp, which smashed when 1t fell from the table, scattered the blazing oil about the room, and the carpet, table cloth and maptel were burned. The flames were extin- guished before the arrival of the fire apparatus, which responded to box 13, Main and Bank streets. Pa- trolman George Cooley turned in the alarm.
 Miss Riyeria was not burned in the accident, but her hair was badly singed. The injured woman was car ried down stairs to the Chinese res taurant, where butter was smeared over her left arm and legs until the arrival of Dr Ives In the ambulance. MT Kinch was assisted down stairs when the ambulance arrived, and Dr Ives bound carron oil soaked .wads of cotton about the burned hands. and also about the arm and limbs of Miss Cross, and they were taken to St Vincent's hospital.
 It was later learned at the hospi- tai that the young woman is the wife of Frederick Montenebo, 3s4 South Main street, Waterbury. She has only been here two weeks. Kinch or Kench, has been here but a short time, hailing from Torring- ton. He is the son of Mrs Rebecca Kench of Torrington.

BALLOON IN FRENCH COURT
Aeronaut h Seized and Arraigned
 for Knocking Over Chim- ney Pot

The balloon is now fighting its way for standing before the French courts. Though 1t appears to have be- come as established a fact as the bi- cycle or the automobile. nevertheless the idea is too new and original for the courts to have many precedents providing for aerial navigation as a method of transit, says . Paris report.
 However. the subject of ancient lights and ancient rights of air. etc.. promises to some before the courts of France in hundreds of different ways in the not far distant future. The first balloon case of the Kind has just been before the court for adjustment
 The suit grows out of balloon acci- dent of last year. An aeronaut named Bacon vas passing in bis balloon over Paris when he unexpectedly came to within few yards of the roofs. Finsl- " he knocked down a chimney pot Thinking him In danger some people promptly seired the dragging guide rope and in spite of the zeronaut's pro teet hauled him down into the street He therefore had 10 choice except to order them to shut their windows while he oehated his gas bas.

riously wounded by Edward Holley.
The shooting was accidental. Mrs.
Dunlavy and Holley We're members of
a picnic party that had gone out to
PALMYRA from Albany. Several OF
the ladies wandered off into the woods
and Holley heard them screaming as
if something was wrong. He FASTENED
to the drag and got gun. In some
way it struck the body of the drag
and the load was discharged through
his hand, passing on and striking Mrs.
Dunlavy. who was standing near, the
charge taking effect in the abdomen:
While not considered fatal, the wound
is of very serious nature. HOlley' $
wound is of very painful nature, but
not serious.
