Indians Not Dying Out-More i'm
United States than When Columbus
Landed.
A popular impression prevails
that the Indians are dying out
Those who have given .he subject
study believe there are more In
dians today in the United States
than there were when Columbus
landed. The Indians were never
populous. They were too much at
war. They roamed the prairies and
hunted through the forests but they
never had local habitatious and we're
never many in one spot.
The first actual census OF the In
dians was taken sew enty years ago.
AT that time there were found to be
253,464 Prior to that time every
thing had been by guess Beginning
with the count Of 1886 the official
reports Of Indian Population are as
follows: In 1860 at The beginning
of the civil war, there were 254,2O0.
Twenty years later in 1890 here
were 256,127. In 1900 there wore
272,023. Today, by 'ount of the
Indian agents on the reservations
Of the Country, there ace 23t,Oo0.
The Indian is not dying out. ana
there is no reason why Ia sh ,uid.
The government has pursued a pol
icy, mistaken in many respects, but
yet calculated to give the Indian a
chance in the race Of civilized life,
and the Indian is showing consider
able aptitude. The Indians OF the
new state Of Oklahoma are intelli-
gent and wealthy and they will be
heard from In national affairs.

Buying an island.

The man who buys a mine rarely
gets so deeply taken in as to have
nothing at all that he can show for his
money. There's commonly place
somewhere and hole in the ground
at least. Not so, however, with Mr..
Tut, who is reported from Colorado
Springs as having lately purchased an
Island off Washington state which he
has since been unsuccessfully trying
to find. His deeds call for ten acres
In the San Juan group off British Co
lumbia, and he fondly hoped to build
summer home there. Alack and
alas! He sailed out in his yacht to
where he supposed the island to be,
but not scrap Of land could he find.
This might be considered sufficiently
provoking. but 1t was not the worst.
The seller now claims that the island
was there when he sold 1t, but that 1t
sank into the sea at the time OF the
earthquake which destroyed San Fran
cisco. All this Is no joke to Mr.. Tutt,
but, says the Boston Herald, 1t strong
ly suggests the case of the curious
people who flocked to a tent and paid
their way In to see the wonderful
gyascutus They didn't see him. but
were glad to escape with their lives at
the alarming cry that the ferocious
gyascutus had broken loose.
