Canucks are noted for raising

reach the record of Henri du Foin,
who lives in a small cabin on the
banks of the Little Peribonka river.
Du Foin has 2S or 29 children, and
the odd part of 1t is that he doesn't

fortunes, and the tally stick he kept

This tally stick was quite neces-

him to keep track up to that number,
after which he used the stick to re-
cord the births and other statistics

WAVED
A HUGE
REVOLVER
Indian Woman Kidnapped Child
rem from Chemawa and Held
Hundreds at Bay WithGun

Mrs. Dora McKinnOn, an indian
woman from the klamath reserva-
ton, living on the California side OF
the state line, kidnapped her two chill
dren from the Salem Indian Training
school at Chemawa yesterday, took
them to the railroad station. and,
with a drawn pistol, held spectators,
railroad officials and school authori-
ties at bay for long time.
She was prevented from taking
the train. as was her first intention,
but it was not until Deputy Sheriffs
Mimic and Ssch went ont from Sa-
lem and placed her arrest, that she
was pacified and disarmed.
The Indians at Chemawa were at
prayer when the trouble came. 1t
was during the Sunday school hour
that Mrs. McKinnon gathered up her
progeny and set out for the tepees
of her native klamath.
Several people connected with the
school endeavored to stop her. and
to prevent her placing the children
on the train. She whipped out
huge revolver, and with numerous
paths, swore she would kill the first
person who attempted to lay hands
IN herself or children.
For awhile CONSERVATION reigned

lians left their Bibles and hymn
'ooks and gathered at the depot. The
and guards came, too,

ould disarm the infuriated aborig-
nee.
The superintendent telephoned to
he sheriff's office and to Justice of
he Peace Daniel Webster, warrant
'as procured, and the sheriffs went

Ian and turned her over to the su-
She announced her intention of be-
g a good Indian, and for the re-
ainder of the day was as quiet as a

She was allowed to remain at the
hool under the promise not to raise
~ disturbance, and she was put on
e next southbound train, and sent {
her way to her California home. {
Mrs. McKinnon has a grievance {
'ainst the Indian school. About a
ar ago she made application in the
guiar way to send her two chill. l
