OLD woman, who stood at the head of the
grave, really CRYING behind bip white hand.

There stood beside her an old Indian,
most comical-looking object, whose long locks
were surmounted by jaunty white straw hat,
ana an whose bony figure was radiant in a red.
nnaa,i nannel I'm miner shirt and a pair of ragged
gray trousers. He was "a kind of preacher
one OF the, Indians said, and his loud vocif-
Grafton and violent gestures were the only
eui0gles which were to console the mourners
ana T 40 honor to the virtues of the deceased.
for ne was the only medicine man in this
part OF California, and his death left the tribe
unprotected against the ravages of rheumatism
and consumption
We could not understand the Indian Lam
guage, but a sturdy farmers son by our side,
who has picked up some OF their vocabulary
translated for us what the preacher was say
ing:
-. 1niin doctor gone now; all Injins die.
SICK here here, here. (pointing to head, lungs
and heart). Die, die never get well. Baby
soon die
"Then the squaws, with their papooses on
their backs. walled louder, and the babies
Joined IN the cry, and tried in vain to fight
away the flies with their little fists.
"The preacher talked on at intervals de-
scTibing the destitution of the tribe, and the
skill and goodness of the departed doctor
1.-TWO blind squaws stood on the edge Of the
grave and every now and then had to be held
back from slipping into the hole
"Finally the preacher laid the dead mans
bow and arrows on the coffin. Then roll of
blankets was thrown in at the foot of the
coffin and two large fur robes.
"Some mistake was evidently made in the
selection of article, for loud voice of vitu-
peration broke out from the monotonous wall
ing, and a bed quilt, lined with turkey-red
calico was hurled by fierce old squaw over
the heads of the crowd back to the pile from
which it had been taken.
1.-TWO old boots. leather hunting bag and
a pair of spring scales were laid in, and then
all was ready for the earth to be shoveled in.
"The crowd did not dsperse until nearly
nigbtfall, and as long as we could see in the
twilight there were still several black figures
standing like sentines at the grave"

green stretches OF the meadow land, with it's
winding river.
"Here very deep and long grave had
been dug, much larger than would be made
for white man, for it was to contain not only
the corpse, but all of the personal effects which
had not been burned. He was a medicine
man, and was considered worthy of coffin,
and when the funeral procession arrived at the
grave, a well-nade pine coffin, manufactured
by local carpenter, arrived from an opposite
direction.
"The body was placed in it without remov-
ing the gray blanket covering the face. But
the right hand was extrieated from its cover
ing, and all the men passed by it in line and
shook hands with the medicine man. Some
gave the cold hand hearty grip, but the touch
Of others was. noticeably gingery
"Then the hand was covered again, and a

OF this amusement.

the church news. The paper contained items

provided for worship in all the principal cities
of Europe Ministers in i'll health were sent
to places where the climate was beneficial
and the abors light.
AS was looking over the items relating to
clergymen living in France, suddenly sprang
to my feel, with yell like that Of an Indian
warrior. There were no other passengers in
the compartment we occupied, or / should not
have done such an unseemly thing.
Maddy was confounded by my demonstra
tion and sprang to his feet in turn.

,"Noo, and he is well enough to preach"
added, reading the item again. HE was in
Paris month ago"
Perhaps he is there now" suggested
Maddy., If be is, our work is finished"
We had better not be too much elated,"
cautioned, recovering my selfPossession.
We discussed the subject till we arrived at
Paris at six in the evening. At the Grand
Hotel we found a letter from Mr.. Waxall. 1t
was dated at Havre the day before He had
not seen the Olivia since he lodged her in the
fog and went into Portsmouth. He had
cruised about the Isle of Wight, in order to
allow the conspirators to see the Sleeper

A knock interrupted the discussion, and
when the door was opened waiter handed in
telegram for me. 1t was plainly directed
to Gay. Brooks, Grand Hotel, Paris, and came
from, London. | could not imagine who
should send dispatch to me, and tore it
open.
1t was from our bankers, and l read it with
feverish interest:

The news seemed like knell of hope to

The lid was closed, and the women gath
cred around, .rapping the coffin with their
kunckles, passing their hands up and down
over it, howling and moaning all the time
The grave was lined with new rush baskets,
upon this carpet, the coffin, with much @ diff
hculty and many experiments, was safely de-
posted. Then the walls grew louder, and
always the voices of the women were heard
above the rest.
1T is impossible to describe that wailing.
1t was not concerted; every one seemed to
be acting Independently of the others; there
was no attempt at tune, but every now and
then the musical voice of young girl, clear
and high pitched, would lead in sort of ca
dence and the heavier voices joined in an
incoherent, dull cry. The women swayed
their bodies from side to side, waving in the
air little tufts of cedar, which they tossed into
the grave.
''But in all this there was very little sign
of real emotion; The young, girls would smile
and simper and duck their heads if they met
the gaze of any of the white bystanders Only
one of the women shed any tears, and she was
Los Angeles herald., 1906-06-03

''There is Pallingrovel" exclaimed Maddy,
on the afternoon of our third day in London.
That explains why the Olivia went into
Portsmouth"
The spy was admitted by his mother, and
her greeting Of her son was as warm as 1T had
been on the former occasion. OF course, his
appearance at this time had meaning, ana
we spent the rest of the day in building up
theories to account for it.
Cone thing is plain enough to me-, said
Maddy, as we sat down to supper Pallln-
grove does not know that we have apartments
opposite his mothers house.
"He would not have shown himself here IT
he had" l replied. II wish we were some.
where else"
"All we have to do is to get out of this
house without being seen by Palngrove, and
get to Paris as quick we cam said Maddy.
We decided to start for Paris the next morn
could have got out of the house without being
seen by our neghbors opposite. 1t was not
dark till after nine o'clock and it would be
daylight by half-past three in the morning.
We called Mrs. Garville, and said that we
should leave at nine O'Clock. Maddy made
her q present of sovereign though we paid
for the food we had consumed besides.
The postman was to carry our vases out
of the street, and when it was quite dark, we
stole out of the house.
We walked few steps and then surveyed
the ground behind us; but there was not
person in the street. Garvie had called a
four-wheeler and put our baggage into it. We
detained the vehicle few minutes while the
postman went back to see if any one came out
of No. 10.
As he did not return We drove to the
Charing Cross Hotel, where we spent the
night, and left at twenty minutes of eight
in the morning.
Before we took our places we looked over
all the passengers on the train. When we
started, Maddy put his head out of the win
dow on one side and / did the same on the
other, to make sure that the spy did not
jump on one of the carriages at the last mo-
ment We saw nothing OF Pallingrove and
we congratulated ourselves on our escape.
On the steamer from Dover to Calais, we
looked the passengers over with the greatest
care. There might have been shadow on
board; but if there were, we were none the
wiser in regard to him.
At quarter past one we took the train at
Calais for Paris By this time we were salts.
fed that we were not followed.
In the station at Charing Cross, Maddy had
bought the morning papers, and | had pro-
cured a copy of the Guardian and several
other church papers.
We had seen nothing of France before and
we were interested in looking out the window
at the scenery But there was a great deal

ing tribes. and are consequently despsed,
which does not seem to hurt their feelings
very much.
Inc government takes care Of the Diggers
on a reservation in California, and they are
yearly improving in knowledge and morals.
Degraded as they are, they have many GU
rious customs, not the most singular of which
are the funeral ceremonies One of these pc
culiar scenes-the burial of medicine man"
is thus described by an eye witness:
When all were gathered at the hut of
mourning, the services seemed to consist of
concert OF walls. carried on principally by the
women The corpse, wrapped in a gray blan-
ket, on rude bier, was placed at a distance
from the hut, and some of the big men Of
the tribe made bundle of the personal ef
fectS of the deceased, and proceeded to burn
his hut, his wagon and all his household fur
nishings.
'There seemed to be great deal of alter
cation accompanying the performance of this
wasteful religious duty. When the excitement
was over, the women went on wailing, while
the young men went off to have good time,
shooting at marks and performing various feats
of strength.
'It is the custom of the Indians to bury
their dead at sunset, and the funeral process
sion started from the Big Spring only in time
to reach the burying ground at that hour.
"There was no discernible order to the cor
tege, and there was no separate conveyance
for the body; it was put in the bottom of
wagon, even tipped up little on one side to
make room for the squaw, who squatted beside
it, wailing and swaying her body back and
forth
"The Indian burial ground is a mound on
the lower end of the valley called Big Mea-
dows, ON the north folk of the Feather River
1t covers scarcely an acre of ground, and

to the barbor and anchor there where the
conspirators could see her.
On our arrival in London we went directly
to the house of Mrs. Garville, where we were
warmly welcomed. AS Wadlaw was not to
leave until the next morning, we sent the
landlady's son to inform him that we were in
the city and would like to see him the next
morning

said Maddy, after the messenger had gone.

pecialy when there is no need of doing So"
replied. His business is to find Maldrake,
and he can do that without knowing any
thing more about our affairs"

yielded it after some discussion. The inn
