TYPICAL INDIANS.
The Average Person So Considers
Northwest Plains Tribes.

The northwest plains Indian is, to
the average person. the typical Amerl
can Indian. the Indian of our school
day books-powerful of physique
statuesque, gorgeous in dress, with
the bravery of the firm believer IL
predestination, says Scribner's Maya
zine. The constant, fearless hunting
and slaughtering of the buffalo trained
him to the greatest physical endur-
ance, and gave an inbred desire for
bloodshed, Thousands of peace-loving
agricultural living Indians might
climb down from their cliff-perched
homes, till their miniature farms, at
tend their flocks, and at night time
climb back up the winding stairs to
their home in the clouds, and attract
no attention. But if fierce band of
Sioux rushed down on hapless emf
grant train the world soon learned of
it,
The culture of all primitive peoples
is necessarily determined by their en-
vironment This, of course, means
that all plain tribes-though speaking
a score of languages-were, in life
and manner, broadly alike. They were
buffalo hunting Indians, and only in
rare cases did they give any attention
to agriculture. Buffalo meat was
their food, and the by-products their
clothing, tolls and implements.
The plains tribes in earlier times
were certainly true nomads For a
time, in the depths of winter, they
camped in the shelter of some forest
along the streams. Other than that
wherever roamed herd of buffalo
there also wandered the bands of
northern Indians. The very existence
of these tribes seemed bound to that
of the buffalo. From the skins their
lodges were built. With the hair on,
the hides furnished the robes for the
body as well as mattresses and bed
coverings. The meat, prepared in
many ways, with the addition of a
few roots and berries, furnished their
entire food Advancing civilization
has swept these countless herds from
the face of the plains and left their
human companions stranded.
