THE cHAMPLAIN TERCENTENNIAL

"The plans for the great Lake Cham
plain tercentennial in 1909 are now well

bration has not yet been chosen. In a
recent meeting at Burlington the Yer

close 81 school meeting was held in
the principals office til which three boys
expressed the opinion of the student
body. The records Of the barred men

bleak Dakota prairies. Brant frowned
at the innocent words, reading them
over again with gloomy eyes and an
exclamation of unmitigated disgust,
yet there was no escaping their plain
meaning. Trouble was undoubtedly
brewing among the Sioux, trouble in
which the Cheyennes, and probably
others also, were becoming involved
Every soldier patroling that long
northern border recognized the ap-
proach of some dire development,
some early coup of savagery.
Brant was not blind to all this, nor
to the necessity of having in readiness
selected bodies of seasoned troops, yet
1t was not in soldier nature to refrain
from grumb!ing when the earliest de.
