and to hold them back from the town
till they could fOrtify it.
In a neighboring barn large
number of Kaw Indians gathered
and when the Cheyennes swept down
through the town they passed this
barn. A fierce shower OF arrows
stopped them, however, and leaving
many of their braves dying and
wounded they retreated, leaving the
Kaws victors. This was the last
fight between these two tribes.
His Work in Congress.
OF all the work done by Curtis
in his official capacity as congress
man he considers the passage OF the
well known Indian measure bearing
his name by the fifty-ffth congress
the most important This is the bill
under which the Dawes commission
worked among the five tribes of civil
lied Indians in the Indian Territory.
This bill permitted the Indians to
incorporate their towns, to elect their
mayors and other officers.
The Kaw tribe of Indians, which
once numbered several thousand
braves, has dwindled until there are
now scarcely 100 men of fighting age
in the tribe. During their prosper
GUS DAYS this tribe was one OF the
most formidable on the plains. Ihey
made travel through Kansas by the
old Santa Fe trail extremely disas-
trous. Their present reservation is
in the Indian Territory a few miles
south of Arkansas City.
Almost every year Congressman
Curtis visits this remnant OF his
mothers tribe. The congressman is
admitted to the council on these oc-
casions, and he is listened to with
great respect by the older members
of the tribe, who are very proud OF
him.
QUAY Had Indian Blood.
Both John A. Logan and Senator
Daniel of Virginia are said to have
strains of Indian blood in their
veins. The nearest approach to
senator of Indian blood prior to the
caucus selection of Mr.. Curtis, how
ever, was the late Senator Matthew
s. QUAY of Pennsylvania. Quay is
said to have had strong strain OF
Indian blood in his veins. The In
dian blood that flowed in the veins
of Quay was that of Corn Planter,
famous old chief and medicine man
of the Six Nations. In his time Corn
planter was monarch of all he sur
veyed within the domains OF the SIX
Nations, which extended over west
.ern New York, eastern Ohio and
western Pennsylvania. Corn Planter
was as absolute a boss of the Six
Nations as his descendant was of the
state of Pennsylvania. The Corn
Planter blood in Quay's veins came
from one of the chiefs daughters.
Indians all over the country knew
Quay, and he was held as big
medicine man" by them. They told
him all their troubles, went to him
with many of their grievances, and
ne never failed TO lend an ear to
their tales of woe and do all that
ae could for them in matters of legis-
alton.

New Lobster Measurement.

The new manner of measuring lobs-
tiers went into effect Thursday, April
18th. Under the new regulations, the
lobster must measure four and three
quarters inches from the end of the
nose to the junction of the tail and
body. This measurement requirement
was reached after measuring 1000 lobs-
tiers which passed under the old meas
urement requirement and getting an
average length. Under the old manner
the lobster had to be at least ten and
half inches from tip to the end of the
middle f1ipper of the tail. 1t was alleged
that under the old style of measurement
the fishermen could pull lobster near
ly quarter of an inch to make him of
the legal length.
The dealers are one and all in favor
of the new way of measuring but the
fishermen are opposed.
