TO PRESERVE INDIAN RELICS.
The North Dakota State Historical So
ciety Takes Up the Work.


\ new movement is on foot in North
Dakota. For years this state has been
the resort Of the Indian curio hunter.
and thousands of specimens have been
carried Off each year. says the Mime
ap)iis Journal. The two great trunk
lines of the Northern Pacific and Great
Northern traverSing the state greatly
facilitates the process. Recently, how
ever, with the reorganization of the State
Historical society the people of the
state have awakened to the value of
their archaeological material and pro-
pose in the future to do their own eX-
ploTing of old Indian sites and preserve
for their own use the remains of the
vanished races once occupying their
lands.
North Dakota has the good fortune to
contain the only remaining fragments
of those two famous tribes of the north
west. the Mandnns and the Grosven-
tres, and has also within her borders
representatives of three other import
ant Indian tribes, the Arikara paw
nccl. Sioux and Chippewa. From the
archaeological point of view the work
which the society has undertaken is
very important The preservation and
record of the myths, tribal records and
customs of the Mandans and eros
ventrcS will be Il unique piece of work.
since practically nothing has been done
along this line except by such travellers
as Lewis and Clark. Catlin and Maxi
milan. The old village sites in the
Missouri valley once occupied by these
! tribes. over fifty in number. have yet
| to be surveyed and mapped. and the
| specimens found there need to be ex-
| amincd. The first steps In the direction
of studying these five tribes in the
state have been taken. and prelimi-
nary report has been issued in the first
volume of the collections of the State
| Historical Society.

RACE OF WHITE GIANTS.
Jesuit Missionary Found Them In

The Rev. Francis Barnum. s. J., at
present in Chicago. says he has discov-
cred a race Of white giants in northern
Alaska. They are of unadulterated
Caucasian blood. immense in stature
and muscular development. members
of one tribe found beyond the settle
ments of the Alaskan Indians north of
what is known as the Indian line. Dur
ing stay of more than eight years
among these people the priest did not
find Il single tribesman who was not
much larger and taller than the aver
age American.
Several years before the discovery
of gold at Nome Father Barnum was
sent as missionary to Alaska Preach
ing from village to village among the
Alaskan Indians, but journeying north
ward always, he finally passed the In
dian line. beyond which the population
becomes strictly Eskimo.
Finally he came upon not the band
OF hardy hunters he had eXpected.+but
a race of purely white men of gigantic
stature. He says they are without the
faintest strain of Monaghan or Indian
ancestry. He was with them long
enough to master their language.
