Painful Wound. While shooting at
target Friday evening at the Bremner
Logging Comp on Young's river, Robert
Bremner was accidently shot through
the palm Of his left hand with 22-
calibre pistol. The wound was cared
for, and is not considered dangerous,
though it was very painful.

as many as a dozen got a swallow

AS for bravery, a white man will
shoot rapids that an Indian will

Little Grow.

What are purported to be the
skull and bones of the famous Sioux
chieftain, Little Crow, are said to
be on exhibition at the rooms of
the State Historical Society in St.
Paul.
In a recent issue of the Hutch
inson Times a correspondent pro-
tests against the grewsome exhibit.
In a post note the editor remarks:
eve never admitted they were
Little Crows bones" The one
thing, however, which seems
to identify them as such is the
fact that Little Grow was known
to have broken at some time in
his life the bones of the left fore
arm, and owing to, rude Indian
surgery the fracture was not prop
erly reduced, and this fracture
shows in the bones now in the
State Historical Society's possess
sion.
Little Grow was a most interest
ing parsonage, a finished orator, a
shrewd politician, and for an Indi-
an, keen student of human ma
ture.
The incident which relates to
the breaking of his arm brings
this out clearly. It snacks of
medieval times, when scheming
scions of royalty locked one an
other in towers and prisons; when
heads we're Topped off with scant
ceremony did it chance that their
unfortunate owners stood between
the plotters and a coveted throne.
Had Little Grow been a student
of early English history his ex-
ploits in this incident would sink
to the commonplace, but when it is
understood that he was an untu-
tored savage, it demonstrates more
clearly than can any words OF
mine the cunning and resource

Sizing Up the Literary Men:

George AIDE was listening grave
ly to compliment. At the end
he said:
''Thank you. You remind me
of something. Shortly after the
appearance of my first book I
went to spend week in summer
resort outside of Chicago.
"The landlord said to me:
"'Mr. AIDE, you are a literary
man, I believer

swered that [ had written a few
trifes-nothing more.

stopping here, the landlord went
on.
"Well, I'm rather glad of that.
eyes said the landlord, I like
literary men. They never object
to paying in advance. They are
used to it. Elk.

fulness of this long headed Indian.
Little Crows father, Wakinya-
tanka, (Big Lightning) was chief
of the Kaposia band of the Sioux.
just before his death, which &C.
CURED in 1874, he designated his
eldest son to succeed him as chief.
Little Grow was the third son, and
being ambitious and something of
a politician, he laid his plans to
become chief. Calling to his aid
a few young men he could trust,
he gave a feast to the band at
which plain, raw, whisky was a
prominent feature. After the right
ones had been plentifully supplied
with whisky a prearranged quar-
rel was picked with the two older
brothers and both were killed in
the melee. Little Grow, accord
ing to his plan, as it is supposed,
was shot in the left wrist and the
bone broken. He at once disap-
peared going to Lac Qui Parle
where he united his fortunes with
those of band of Sissetons, and
there remained until he had re-
covered from his injury. Later
he became reconciled with his
band and returned to his village
where he was recognized as chief,
and ultimately became one of the
famous Indians of the North Star
State, and of the West.
Little Grow, during his resi-
dence with the Sissetons, married
the oldest daughter of the chief of
that band, and later as they be-
came old enough to marry, took
the three remaining daughters to
wife. Little Grow again uncon-
sciously aped some Of the old world
rulers in that he had four names
as we'll as four wives, a name for
each wife; Sparrow Hawk, His
Scarlet Band, Kakake and Little
Grow. I trust the study of the
life of this remarkable Indian is
as much of delight to others of
the detained as it is to me.

The Indian.

Much has been said and written
about the noble red man. But
these word pictures do not repre-
sent the Indian as seen on some
of the reservations in this state.
[ have had opportunity to observe
the habits and conditions of the
Indian on the White Earth, Leach
Lake, and Red Lake reservations,
and as far AS my observations
went, there is no occupation in
which an Indian is so efficient as
white man. Even in the arts in
which he is supposed to excel, the
white man is his superior.
Indian tanned buckskin is pop
ularly supposed to be better than
that tanned by white men; but, as
matter of fact, it is not, as a
general rule, SO soft or durable as
that tanned by other processes.
Their birch bark canoes are not so
graceful as pictured, and are not
so serviceable as those built by
whites.
It is true that some of them
have college education, and some
have learnt useful trades; but very
few Of them use their knowledge
to any advantage. One black
smith, whom I knew we'll and who
was said to do good work, would
work two days and be drunk the
rest of the week.
Out of a crew of one hundred
and twenty-five Indians driving
logs on the Shingobec River, only
two we're considered as good as
white men. And they are not
hired when other drivers can be
had, as they will quit as soon as
they earn twenty-five or thirty
dollars.
/ noticed an incident that illus
trates their fondness for fire water,
on that drive. One of the crew
a white man-had a quart Of lin
seed oil, which housed to keep
his feet from scalding. It was
hid on the head works. He ran
out on the logs to get it, and
started back, when an Indian

LaudnbIe-PxuasezV01zhy.

Laudable is the generic; Praise
zVo,zjky the specific term. Things
that are generally entitled to
praise are laudable; when circum-
stances make an action deserve
praise, it is praiseworthy. What is
laudable is so under all circum-
stances; what is praiseworthy is
SO only under certain circum-
stances. The merit of what is
laudable lies in the abstract ma
ture of the thing. The merit of
what is praiseworthy depends up
on the circumstances of the case.
In praiseworthy, there is an i'm
piled reference to the agent.
More generally, things are quail
fed as laudable, and actions as
praiseworthy. Ambition, conf
dence, etc., may be laudable. To
encourage trade, and discourage
immortality, are praiseworthy in

DISCRIMINATE Penetration.
By assortment we obtain knowl-

or things. By penetration we dis
cover the existence of what is
concealed. Discernment is the
quality of a clear, sensible under
standing; penetration, of an acute
intellect. We exercise discern

of character; we exercise penetra-
ton in discovering the plots of
the designing.
FURTHER Farther.
The positive degree of the first
of these words is forth, which is
compared thus: forth; further;
furthest. The second word is
compared thus: far; farther; far
thest. Further, then means more

distance. When we are further
on our journey, we are farther
from the starting place. In alb

We are profuse when we give away

we spend upon others. A man
displays extravaganza in his dress,
plate, books, pictures, etc., and he
displays, profusion in his dinners,
entertainments, presents, etc., to
his friends. One who is extrava-
