Buying in carload lots directly from
the manufacturers the company has
long been recognized as headquarters
for mining supplies of all kinds. The
class of goods carried in all lines is of

mining men and mining communities
demand the best in the way of food and
clothing.

With ample capital and resources of

been In good circumstances, but In
stead of that you and the Mexicans
are hunting me with soldiers He
said never gave any such orders;
the troops at Fort Apache, who spread
this report, knew that it was untrue
Then 1 agreed to go back with him to
San Carlos
1t was hard for me to believe him
at that time. Now 1 know that what
he said was untrue, and 1 firmly be-
lieve that he did issue the orders for
me to be put in prison or to be killed
in case / offered resistance.
I'VE started with all our tribe to go
with Gen Crook back to the United
States, but feared treachery and con-
cluded to remain in Mexico. We were
not under any guard at this time
The United States troops marched in
front and the Indians followed, and
when we became suspicious we turned
back. l do not know how far the
United States army went after myself
and some warriors turned back before
we were missed, and do not care.
Capt. Lawton in the Field.
HSoon Gen. Miles was made COM
mander of all the western posts, and
troops trailed us continually. They
were led by Capt. Lawton, who had
good scouts. The Mexican soldiers
also became more active and more
numerous. We had skirmishes almost
every day, and SO we finally decided
to break up into small bands. With
six men and four women I made for
the range of mountains near Hot
Springs, New Mexico. We passed
many cattle ranches, but had no trou-
BILE with the cowboys. We killed cat
tie to eat whenever we were in need
of food, but we frequently suffered
greatly for water. AT one tine we
had no water for two days and nights
and our horses almost died from thirst.
We ranged in the mountains of New
Mexico for some time; then, think
ing that perhaps the troops had left
Mexico, we returned On our return
through Old Mexico we attacked every
Mexican found, even if for no other
reason than to kill. We believed they
come to Mexico to fight us.
South of Casa Grande, near a place
called by the Indians Gosoda, there
was a road leading out from the town.
There was much freighting carried on
by the Mexicans over this road.
Where the road ran through noun
tain pass we stayed in hiding, and
whenever Mexican freighters passed
we killed them, took what supplies
we wanted and destroyed the remand
er. We were reckless of our lives,

Other Musical Ears.

A violinist says spiders are notori-
ously and historically fond of music
At a performance in Missouri the con-
cert hall was made disagreeable by a
sudden invasion of spiders, which
were drawn by his violin out from the
cracks and crannies of the ancient
building. They crawled about the
floor and onto the stage, and he could
see the annoyed audience stamping on
the insects. The writer adds that he
has known a small garden snake to
be attracted by piano playing, and a
Young calf to whisk his tail and
prance about most gleefully at the
first notes OF French horn. His
neck would curve about proudly, his
hoofs tread lightly, and his ears wag
joyously when the footing began, and
he never quieted down till the music
ceased.

I'VE stood between his troopers and

was made by this stone. and it was

Gen Miles said to me: My brother,

going to kill men, and other thoughts
of war. / want you to put that out of
your mind and change your thoughts
to peace
Then agreed and gave up my arms
I said: I will quit the warpath and

Anecdose of robert r. Aiee.

The late Rob ert z. Hits had kr owl-
edge of stenoSS7ky which vas of
great value to him in debate. He has
been known to rise with his hand full
of shorthand notes of a speech just
delivered to which he was about to
reply and woe to the man who &C
cused Mr.. Hit of misquoting him. He
was the patron saint of the stenog-
raphers of the house. Not long ago
political influence was about to dis
place from the line of promotion a
young expert writer of shorthand from
Michigan whose work Mr.. Hit had
occasion to admire. Mr.. Hit went to
Speaker Cannon. "This will never do,
Joe," said the shorthand authority of
the house. I'VE can't do without this
man. The house must have him. "All
right, HIT" replied Speaker Cannon.
IF anybody knows the sort of stenog-
raphers this house ought to have you
are the man" That settled it and the
Michigan stenographer held his place.

Not What He Was Used To.

Ever since John d. Rockefeller be-
came an honorary member of the
American Press Humorists' associa-
ton stories more or less apocryphal
have been af1oat regarding him. 1t is
beginning to be suspected that some
of them have been invented by his
fellow humorists. One of the latest
refers to an occasion last summer
when he entertained lot of slum
children at his stock farm near Cleve-
land. Mr.. Rockefeller gave each of
them, among other things, some milk
to drink, part of it at least being the
product of a $4,000 prize COW. How
do you like it," he asked when they
had finished. Gee, it's fne!" re-
sponded one little fellow, who added
after a thoughtful pause: 81 wisht

LOOSE TEETH
Made Sound by Eating erape-Nuts.

Proper food nourishes every part of
the body, because Nature selects the
different materials from the food we
eat, to build bone, nerve, brain, mus
Gle, teeth, etc.
All we need is to eat the right kind
of food slowly, chewing it velour
digestive organs take it up into the
blood and the blood carries it all
through the body, to every little nook
and corner.
If some one would ask you, rs
Grape-Nuts good for loose teeth %
you'd probably say, NO, don't see
how it could be-" But a woman in
Ontario writes:
For the past two years have used
Grape-Nuts Food with most excellent
results 1t seems to take the place
of medicine in many ways, builds up
the nerves and restores the health

"A little Grape-Nuts taken before re-
firing soothes my nerves and gives

ritabilfty of the stomach nerves, being
a pred:gested food)

that Gen. Miles was the chief OF the

Il sent my brother Ferico fWhite

to Fort Bowie to see Gen. Miles and
to tell him that we wished to return
to Arizona; but before these messen-
gers returned 1 met two Indian scouts

me to meet him So 1 went to the

Gen. Miles, Promises.
When I arrived at their camp
went directly to Gen Miles and told
him how I had been wronged and
wanted to return to the United States
with my people, as we wished to see
our families, who had been captured
and taken away from us. Gen. Miles
said to me: The president of The
United States has sent me to speak to
you. He has heard of your trouble
with the white men, and says that If
you will agree to a few words of treaty
we need have no more trouble Ge-
ronimo, if you will agree to few
words of treaty all will be satisfac-
torily arranged
Then he talked with me for long
time and told me what he would do
for me in the future if l would agree
to the treaty. did not hardly believe
Gen Miles, but because the president
of the United States had sent me word
agreed to make the treaty and to
keep it. Then 1 asked Gen. Miles what
the treaty would be. Gen. Miles said
to me: I will take you under govern
ment protection. will build you a
house. l will fence you much land
will give you cattle, horses, mules
and farming implements You will be
furnished with men to work the farm,
for you yourself will not have to work.
In the fall 1 Will send you blankets
and clothing, so that you will not suf-
fer from cold in the winter time.
There is plenty of timber, water
and grass in the land to which will
send you. You will live with your
tribe and with your family. If you
agree to this treaty you shall see your

Beverage.

OF the manner Of life in Zealand,
Netherlands, an observer writes: "The
Dutch farmhouse is usually built after
uniform model. The living room
usually occupies the whole of the
ground floor and is a sitting room, bed
room and kitchen, rolled into one.
The bedsteads are screened by green
curtains, or hidden away like cup
boards; but what is called the show

pies prominent place in the room
But, then, it is never used; it is kept
exclusively for the purpose of prov
ing the high respectabiIity of the fam
lily by the fneness OF it's linen sheets
and the richness of it's counterpane-
Kept nominally in honor of the guests,
the most honored guest would not be-
allowed to use it In larger or more
modern farm houses a separate room
is set apart as show place, or pronk-
kamer; but there is, as a rule, no
bedstead, and the room is furnished
as a parlor. This room, like the
bedstead, is never used by the house
hold for general purposes, but on
the occasion of a death of member
of the family it serves as the bier
chamber. In some farm houses a
wing has been added to the original
building, and in such cases it is di-
vided into two or three small bed
rooms
As a rule, the stable or shed for
the cows forms part of the house, and
is separated from the living room
only by a wooden wall or partition.
The door of communication is gen.
orally fitted with glass windows, so
as to keep the animals under supervi-
sion. There is also a class of open
farm houses, where there is no parti-
ton at all and the animals literally
live with the family. Nowhere is the
o1d-fashioned theory more firmly held
than in Holland that the odor of cows
| is beneficial to consum1tives. Indeed,
sometimes those who are tuberculOuS
will go to sleep with the cows in
their manager. Over the cowsheds are
the haylofts, and sometimes these
serve as sleeping places as well.
In many of the older farms there
is an open fireplace without chin
ney, and the smoke finds it's way out
as best it can, helping in its passage
to cure the ham, sausages and black
buildings which depend from the
| beams of the ceiling. The furniture
is strictly limited to chairs, tables,
/
ment of the chamber, and perhaps
spinning wheel or a mangle. The
, ornaments are probably no more than
some delft ware hung round the room,
generally in racks, and Dutch clock
The library consists of the family
Bible.
The food of the Boer class is as
simple as the rest of their life. The
staple dish is buckwheat porridge and
pig meat, especially in the form OF
hams and sausages, represents the
chief article of the principal daily
meal, with little or no variety. COf-
fee is the universal beverage and the
only intoxicant taken is one of the nu-
merous forms of gin distilled in
all parts of the country. Treacle is
also largely used, while sugar is re-
garded as luxury. The bread used
is black rye, but there is also brown
loaf made with rreac1e and mixed
with raiSins.

NORTHERN LEAGUE
IS NOT YET
DEAD
Local Fan Believes There is No
Cause for Alarm Copper
Towns May Be Landed.

If E. H. Kent returns from the east
either today or tomorrow there will
be meeting of the board of control of
the Northern League and the managers
of the Copper Country League at
Duluth tomorrow, if not it will proably
be postponed week. 1t is belived by
the fans over the league that if Mr..
Kent was here that there would be no
great trouble in patching up league.
AS one of the fans expressed it 1--WE
are hard workers and all that but we
don't seem to be able to round things
up and do the deal like Kent.
Don't believe that the Northern
League is dead yet, said a local fan
to the Evening Times last night. 1
do not agree with the Evening Times
that the combination of the Northern
League and the Copper country league
will mean a tossing proposition. To
be sure the Northern League has al
ways been a tossing proposition, but,
with the copper towns in and Crook
ston out( Crookston has been a mill
stone ever since the league was or
ganized). I believe the combination
would pay. There would be no trans
portation in the copper country and
plenty of Sunday ball. Superior would
be put on a paying basis, as l be-
lieve that it can, and the towns of
Grand Forks, Fargo and Winnipeg
with Duluth, would give good crowds
and money would be made.
Locally there is not much doing
now but as soon as the status Of the
league is settled, the towns will wake
up and get into the game In Grand
Forks the election is playing havoc
with things but have faith to believe
that when it is over and settled April
2, that there will be plenty of en-
