On the Wednesday morning after the
death of Louis F. Wright, Alderman
Maypole, Wright's mother and Harry
Goings, one of his relatives, and the
writer, appeared before the Finance
Committee of the City Council, and AL
derman Maypole acquainted it with the
facts in the case, and requested a little
financial assistance for Mrs. Wright to
aid her to bring the body of her son
back to Chicago for burial.
The hat was passed around, and Al
dermens Mavor, Jackson, Bennett, Bell
fuss, Finn, Goldzier, Blake and Boyd
and Hon. F. w Block contributed Sill.
Then Alderman Maypole ran his hand
in his pocket and brought up $40, which
he donated to Mrs. Wright. making SCI
m all which was turned over to her TO
sccomlish her object. Alderman May
pole also furnished transportation for
the body, and an attendant from that
point in Missouri to this city. Alderman
Maypole was no candidate for re-elec-
ton at that time, and none of the par
ties were residents of his ward, and his
kind and generous act on that occasion
have always endeared him in the hearts
Of his Afro-American fellow citizens.
For many years Alderman Maypole

This was the plan decided upon af-

party lay in ambush and few of the
bravest young men were appointed TO
attack the woodchoppers who were
cutting logs to complete the building
of the fort. We were told not to kill
these men, but to chase then into the
fort and retreat slowly, defying the
white men; and if the soldiers should
follow, we were to lead them into the

as we had hoped! 1t was q matter
of very few minutes, for every SOL

takes to annihilate a small herd of

"This attack was fastened because
most of the Sioux on the Missouri riv-
er and westward had begun to talk of
suing for peace. But even this did
not stop the peace movement. The
very next year treaty was signed at
Fort Rice, Dakota territory, by nearly
all the Sioux chiefs, in which 1t was
agreed on the part of the Great Faith
er in Washington that all the country
north of the Republican river in Ne
braska, including the Black Hills and
the Big Horn mountains, were to be
always Sioux country, and no white
man should intrude upon it without
permission. Even with this agree
ment Sitting Bull was not satisfied
and they would not sign.

CHIEF RAlN-IN- THE-FACE
THE STORY OF A SIOUX WARRIOR
(By Dr. Charles A. Eastman in New York outook

The noted Sioux warrior, Rain-in-
the-Face, whose name once carried
terror to every part of the frontier,
died at his home on the Standing
Rock reserve in North Dakota on the
14th Of September, 1908. About two
months before his death 1 went to see
him for the last time, when he lay
upon the bed of sickness from which
he never rose again, and drew from
him his life-history.
1t has been my experience that you
cannot induce an Indian to tell a
story, or even his own name. by ask
ing him directly.
Friend" said "even If a man is
on hot trail, he stops for smoke!
In the good old days, before the
charge there was smoke. At home,
by the fire side, when the old men
were asked to tell their brave deeds,
again the pipe was passed. So come,
let us smoke now to the memory of
the old days!"
He took of my tobacco and filled
his long pipe. and we smoked. Then
told an old mirthful story to get
him in the humor of relating his own
history.
The old man lay upon an iron bed
stead, covered by red blanket, in 6
corner of the little log cabin. He
was all alone that day, only an old
dog lay silent and watchful at his
masters feet.
True, friend; it is the old custom
to retrace ones trail before leaving
1t forever! 1 know that l am at the
door of the spirit home.

he continued. I'm all our boyish
games had the name of being hard
to handle, and l took much pride in
the fact.
Il was about ten years old when
we encountered band of Cheyennes.
They were on friendly terms with us,
but we boys always INDUCED in sham
fights on such occasions, and this
time l got in an honest fight with a
Cheyenne boy older than 1. l got
the best of the boy, but he hit me hard
in the face several times, and my face
was all spattered with blood and
streaked where the paint had been
washed away. The Sioux boys
whooped and yelled:
His enemy is down, and his face
Is spattered as If with rain! Rain
in the-Face! His name shall be Rain
in-the-Face!'
Afterwards, when I was a young
man, we went on a warpath against
the eros Ventres. We stole some of
their horses, but were overtaken and
had to abandon the horses and fight
for our lives. l had washed my face
to represent the sun when half COW
cred with darkness, so I painted it
half black, the other half red. We
fought all day in the rain, and my face
was partly washed and streaked with
red and black; SO again was
christened Rain-in-the-Face. We con-

sidered It an honorable name.
Il had been on many war-paths,
but was not especially successful I'M
til about the time the Sioux began to
fight with the white man. One of the
most daring attacks that we ever
made was at Fort Totten, North Da-
kOta, in the summer of 1866.
"Hohay, the Assiniboine captive of
Sitting Bull, was the leader of this
raid. Wapaypay, the Fearless Bear,
who was afterward hanged at Yank-
ton, was the bravest man among us.
He dared Hohay to make the charge.
Hohay accepted the challenge, and in
turn dared the other to ride with him
through the agency and right under
the walls OF the fort, which was we'll
garrisoned and strong.
"Wapaypay and in those days
called each other 'brother-friend.' 1t
was life-and-death vow. What one
does the other must do; and that
meant that must be in the forefront
of the charge, and If he is killed,
must fight until l die also.
II prepared for death. l painted as
usual like an eclipse of the sun, half
black and half red"
His eyes cleaned and his face
lighted up remarkably as he talked,
pushing his black hair back from his
forehead with nervous gesture.
"Now the signal for the charge was
given! started even with Wapay-
pay, but his horse was faster than
mine, SO he left me little behind as
we neared the fort This was bad for
me, for by that time the soldiers had
somewhat recovered from the surprise
and were aiming better.
Their big gun talked very loud, but
my Wapaypay was leading on, leaning
forward on his fleet pony like a flying
squirrel on smooth log! He held his
rawhide shield on he rigth side, a
little to the front, and so did l. Our
war whoop was like the coyotes sing
ing in the evening, when they smell
blood!
