that the neglect of the Off

cause of the present insign-

THE JAMAICA INCIDENT.

The conduct of the Governor OF
Jamaica. rsfusipg to accept the UNI
solicited aid Of the American Admiral,
appears strange at first sight but
Judging from the correspondence that
passcd between the two, Admiral
Davis landed troops and ordered them
10 20 to work clearing up streets and
guarding property, etc. ana then cN-
pressed the hope that the governor
would approve of what he had done.
The regular course OF proceeding
would have been to first ascertain
whether foreign aid was needed, ana
In what form 1t would be accepted,
and then attend to the work of relief
Governments, naturally, are sensitive
on such points of international eti-
duette. They do not look with favor
upon any action OF other governments
that may reflect upon their ability or
Willingness to take care of their own
citizens. An American governor would,
undoubtedly, under similar circum-
stances, have acted as the Governor
Of Jamaica did and assured any for
cign admiral that the American gov
eminent and nation would render all
necessary assistance. The principle
Is recognized IN our own government,
In the relations existing between Fed
eral and state authorities. Ii, there
fore, as appears from the dispatches,
American troops were landed and put
to work without consultation with the
Governor the latter cannot be severely
censured for his apparent dlscourtesy.
The Admiral had orders to render all
| aid in his power, but certainly not
without observing the usual formsli-
ties. The incident is regrettablc, but
II should not cause III Will between
the citzons OF two great nations.

AN INDIAN LEGEND.

A Kansas city Star writer quotes
gentleman who has taught school
among Indians for many years, TO the
effect that the Creek Indians believe
that they are descendants of one of the
so-called lost tribes, He explains that
he boarded for 1--WE years with a Creek
Indian who had been educated at Car
Isle, and this fellow used 10 tell many
Indian legends. as the children and
family were gathered around the fire
place of an evening. He was the son
of a Medicine man" aud had heard
his father relate the stories he told his
children.
According to the tradition handed
down from Esther to son, the Creeks at
one time were associated with the 9TH
er tribes. but during their wanderIngs
they became separated. "They wan
dered." we are told Tor years fur TO
the north, until thoy came 10 sea.
There they built boats and embarked.
They stcered their course by the wand
OF a medicine man. Each morning he
went 10 his topee and set up his diYln-
ing rod ana told them which direction
10 pursue they followed this rod from
warm country to a cold sea, on
which they sot sail. The sea was
crossed ana then they Travelled toward
the south again
That this tradition refers TO some
great event IN the far distant past OF
the history of the Indians is indlsput-
able, That the general outline OF that
event has been preserved may be taken
for granted. while the details, as In all
oral transmissions from generation to
generation, must have suffered changes
ana distortions. Even mythology, un-
doubtedly. has an historical basis,
