LOST NEAR LAKONTA.
Braves of Forest Have An Exper-
fence Not On Program

The degree staff of the Oskaloosa
Tribe of Red Men, headed by VIII
Stump, veteran but an enthusiastic
brave, went to Lakonta Saturday night
to give the degree work to class of
fourteen pale faces A company OF
twelve or fifteen departed early in
the afternoon in carriages for the La.
konta pow WOW. The program had
been arranged to begin at seven.thir-
ty o'clock in the evening to have the
degrees completed, that the social
side of the order might be exempli.
fed The program was not started
until ten-thirty o'clock and Mr.. Stump
was blamed for the delay. Will has
boosted that he has never yet had
his pipes mixed, but he acknowledges
that he got hts trail terribly tangled
Saturday evening. The carriage
Will was driving lost its way and be-
fore the driver was aware he was
down somewhere in the vicinity OF
Eddyville Lost and bewildered, it
was some time before the instincts OF
the brave pointed out the right path
and then the way was long and beset
by many hardships. When the party
finally landed in Lakolta,-and their
presence was necessary to the nand.
ling of the degree,-the several mem.
bers were almost frozen and they had
to be thawed out before they were en-
abled to perform their duties in the
ceremonies.
The degrees were given with vigor
and eclat and those candidates had
as swift and merry chase as ever a
novice ran. Then came a big spread
of good things that was doubly en-.
joyei on account of the long wait that
had preceded.
The degree staff arrived at their
homes in this city Sunday morning
about the hour when the new day was
pinking the east. 1t goes without
question that Mr.. Stump and his
crowd were not permitted to pick the
homeward trail.

which the new .4ne will carry mail

similar agreements will be entered
into with the governments of Nicar-
