INDIAN LODGES.
Homes of the SaVases In the Days ef
 the Buffalo.

Homes of the SaVases In the Days ef
 the Buffalo.
 While in buffalo days some of the wild Indians of the plains occupied per manent dwellings during a part of the year, there were others who lived whol. ly In movable lodges.
 These were made of buffalo skins tanned white and sewed together. They were of different sizes, the poor occu- Pying smaller lodges, while the wealthy man, be who owned many horses, very likely had a large family and required a larger lodge. The size of a mans lodge was to some extent an indication of his wealth. Two horses were need ed to drag the poles of a large lodge and one to carry the lodge itself, three horses for the transportation of the dwelling alone, to say nothing of the other property and the different mem bers of the family.
 A lodge of moderate size required eleven skins, and eighteen poles were needed to set 1t up. A sixteen skin lodge required twenty-two poles. The larger the lodge the greater was the number of poles needed. From the fact that they used an unusual number of poles in setting up their lodges 1t re. suited that the Cheyennes had well stretched. nice looking lodges.
 The northern Cbeyennes declare that an odd number of hides was always used for the best lodges, and the num- Der might range from eleven to twenty one. The skins were sewed together with sinew thread. First, of course, the hides must be tanned, the hair re, moved and the skin softened. Then the Cheyenne woman held a sewing bee which was not unlike the bees of our ancestors in the early days of this country. She invited her friends to come and help her sew her lodge and provided them with refreshments, Among them was always one woman especially skillful in cutting out the lodges, and she fitted the skins together before the women began to sew them.

HOLDING 4 CAMERA.
Some Practical Suggestions to the Be.
 ainner In Photography.

Some Practical Suggestions to the Be.
 ainner In Photography.
 One of the most important lessons for a beginner to learn is to hold the camera tn the proper position during exposure. Whenever there are corners of buildings or other objects which give vertical lines the camera must be held absolutely level If this is not done, the building in the picture will appear to be falling either backward or forward, according to the way in which the camera was tilted.
 There are times, however, when the camera may be tilted to an advantage In some cases 1t is an absolute neces' sity. For example, in photographs of clouds. waterfalls, balloons, etc, the camera may point upward, while in taking pictures of people swimming or bathing, children at work or play, etc, it may be pointed downward.
 Very successful photographs of prominent speakers, parades, crowds etc, have been taken when the camera was upside down. It makes no differ cuCc 1u tue urhalANS NhCNAGA AAN NdAA era is right side up or not By holding the camera in the way suggested many a photographer has secured good pic lures. while others who tried to use the camera in the usual way made ab solute failures
 Often by holding the camera by the side of the body and pointing 1t back ward one may secure pictures of chil dren at play and of older people 1T natural poses without the knowledge of any members of the group
 Another warning to beginners is nee essary. Do not try to take time ex posture while holding the camera in tht hand Even if the camera is held against the breast and respiration stop ped the action of the heart is suficienf to cause the box to yibrate and spoi the picture.-Circle Magazine.

London: October, &C. 1.-The color
line has made its appearance at Ok
ford and many of the American
Rhodes scholars, particularly those
from the South, are making protests
against the acceptance of A. l.. Locke,
the Negro student appointed by the
Rhodes Selection Committeecof Penn
sylyania. Secretary Charles w.
Boyd,s OF the Rhodes fund, ,Ehas re-
celVed many remonstrances, not
alone from Rhodes scholars, but from
influential Americans, declaring that
the admission of Negro on equal
terms with white students will create
against. the educational work of the
trust. Mr.. Boyd, speaking with the
authority of Lord Grey and the full
bench of Trustees, says:
'"Alasin Lorraine Locke has been
appointed by the Selection Committee
OF the Pennsylvania Rhodes Trus-
tees, and their agents in England
have the greatest respect for Amer
lean opinion and never interfere on
principle with the decision Of the
American Selection Board. They re-
gard this as an American question,
In which 1t would be presumptions
for them to say a word"
The university authorities have not
raised any objection en- Gaccount Of
his color, but one Of the smaller col
ieges, Hertford, has been chosen as
Locke's residence. He will have the
same treatment as the a. other
scholars arriving from America, and
Is going into residence next week.
Locke made a good reputation as q
worker when he was a Harvard sta
dent, and has gone to Oxford with the
ambition of fitting himself for taking
a prominent part in Booker'T. Wash

race in America. ...&..,...

MOTHERS STORY
OF Her Son Being yCremated BY a
Negro Tramp Is Doubted BY
4
the Authorities.

Burlington, Iowa October 3.--It is
now believed that the story told by
Mrs. John Hathaway yesterday, that
tramp tied her son to fence and
burned him to death because he had
refused to give the tramp food, is
untrue. y
The Hathaways lived near Oquaw-
ka, ILL.,, and the woman,s story had
produced intense excitement in that
neighborhood. The 6oroner's inves.
tigation today s1eve1obed that Mrs.
Hathawa had left her)children alone
while she went to q heighbor's, and
1t is thought that during her absence
the boy set fire to his Iclothing while
playing with mktches.I The officials
at oquawka Stdvented the story in
order to plaSate her husband.
The coroner's jury rel kurned YER
dict of accidental death, and Frank
Williams, q Negro arrested at Mon
mouth on suspicion OF being impli-
Gated In the alleged crime, was re-
1eased late this afternoon " :.
