Butto H. lustrate how capable an Indian is, un- dec proper precept and example. to turn away from evil conduct, I'll have to own up to it that Washable was not always the man he is to-day.
 <" His youth was wild, impetuous, and even cruel. Like a good many of, the chiefs, he was polygamist. At one time he had as many as nine wives.
 "'Once. at the time that Chief Washable had these nine wives in his tepee. he started off at the head of his tribe on a great hunting expedition. On the night before starting he called his first and most important wife out of tue tepee and pointed to cleared, level spot about hundred yards away. He told her that he wanted the tepee re- moved to that spot before his return from the hunting expedition.
 ""The wife nodded in omedience. The In6ian women, as you well know, att terd to all of the camp labor, and this order of her husband, the chief, was quite an ordinary one.
 Washable was off on the hunting expedition with his tribe for several weeks. When he returned with the tribe one evening a short time before sunset his astonishment was great when he observed that his tepee had not been moved, in accordance with his instructions to his first wife. He didn't say anything about It at first, but jcin- ed his wives in the tepee and took his supper in silence.
 After supper he called his first wife ever to him.

 "'The wife timorously replied that she had started to obey her lords in- jurction, but that her mother had in- terfered and stopped her.
 Washable stood up and gazed sternly at the aged crone, his first wlfe's mother. who was blinking over in corner of the tepee,

 Bishop Talbot once called meet ing of the well-to-do men of Cheyenne for the purpose of explaining to them why he wanted them to subscribe to a missionary fund to be expended among the Shoshone Indians" said a Chey- enne woman. 'There was considerable reluctance on the part of the men in- vited to attend this meeting.
 We'll attend, of course they said to him, for we like to hear you talk on any old subject. But you know that we don't like Indians, and there isn't much chance of our loosening up in a financial way

 ''When the meeting was assembled the Bishop became pretty eloquent in picturing the excellent traits of the Shoshone Indians, and particularly in portraying the virtues of their aged chief, Washable. who lived to be con- siderably more than hundred. Then the Bishop went ahead and told of the Shoshones' religious needs-a mission house and chapel on the reservation, religious instructors, and so on.

A HERONRY VISITED.
Party of NaturaIists Explore Nesting
 Place of the Long Legged QuaIx.

 A party of local mature fakirs,'' says the New Britain Herald, visited the large heronry in the southern part of the town of Newington and near this city yesterday. It is situated in an ex- tensive swamp, thickly covered with a tall growth of slender naples hardly more than eight inches in diameter and fifty to seventy-flve feet high In the topmost branches the herons build their nests and there are dozens of them. They are constructed of big bundle of twigs, laid loosely together, in the cen ter in a slight depression, the eggs are laid and the long legged unGainlv young are reared. There were many of the big birds to be seen yesterday, cir- cling around, high Up over the trees. disturbed by their visitors It is a. nov el sight and worth the long walk and difficult travelling through the swamp to see The place is very wet, the soil soft and sodden, and the swamp can only be traversed by jumping from one tuft of bog grass to another. Giant Jacks in the Pulpit" and clumps of ferns and Symplocarpus abound and the dreaded poison ivy grows in profusion.
 This heronry has been in existence for many years, the herons coming to the same place season after season to rear their young, the retired and almost inaccessible situation making it a safe habitation for them.
