ANCIENT INDIAN ORDER.

Strange Religious Rites Observed by
Remnant OF New England Tribe.
Up in the northeast corner OF the
state there is a small band of Seneca
Indians OH a reservation OF the same
name, says the Muskogee correspond
ent of the Kansas City Times. This
is q remnant of nation of Indians
that can be traced from the original
New England States, as they were
forced west and south by the en-
crOachment of the whites and the bat
tie arm OF stronger Indian bands that
were constantly warning against them
Among this little band of Indians,
probably not more than 100 all told,
there are some curious heather rites
that seem to be instructive with the
tribe.
Among them there is an old order
known as 'The Wood Face" Those
who belong to the order can call in
the Wood Faces in case of sickness,
as is often done. They go through a
| performance that is calculated to drive
out from the sick person the evil
spirit that may be lowering around
| the bed. These faces are masks made
out of wood, usually carved to repre-
sent human form of some character,
| but sometimes made to represent the
head of some animal. They are paint
ed red and black, with large silver
| eyes and horse tail for hair.
Arrayed in one Of these hideous
masks, together with rattles made OF
turtle shells fastened together at the
outer edges with small stones inside
and tied to the legs of the wood
| Faces" as they dance, roll and Kick,
1 singing their incantations the while,
the Indians present scene. calculated
to drive away any evil spirit that
might happen along and incidentally
drive the life out of the patient
1t appears that this organization
las been in the tribe for many gener-
iations, the modes of procedure differ
ing sometimes, but following the same
| general character. Its secret signs
! and symbols are guarded as closely
as Masonry and its frasernal features
are as binding Its spiritual benefits
are believed in implicitly.

FIGHT FOR sPEARFIsH RIVER.

Expenditure Of 100000 Said to Be
Scheme of Company in Black Hills.
1t is announced that plans are now
on foot which will result in the cree
ton OF a mammoth water power plant
on the Spearfish river that will har-
ness practically the whole of that
stream, transform the present sys-
tenn of water plants here, involve an
expenditure of at least $2,OOO,OUO anil
inaugurate fight between the Cen
eral Electric company and the Black
Hills Traction company for supremacy
in the Black Hills.
For some time there have been ru-
mors of struggle for the water
rights Of the Spearfish river A few
years ago plant erected by the
Spearfish Electric Light and Power
Company was put out of commission
by the flood of 1904, and no effort has
since been made to utilize the stream
for that purpose until the Black Hills
Traction company entered the field
Shortly after their new plant was
buiIt at Spearfish overtures looking
toward a sale were alleged to have
been made by the General Electric
company, which owns $1,000, 900
plant at Puma. These offers were
refused, and it is now said that the
big company has determined 10 fight
rilp Snn3l 1er 0ne>
According to authentic information
the General Electric company will
build plant that will have capacity
of 5000 horse power, which, it is es-
timated would cost the company AT
other million.
There are al. present FIVE separate
crews of surveyors working in the
Spearfish canyon, none of which will
volunteer information as to their
plans. The Homestalie company owns
most of the riparian rights in the
canyon, and has unlimited opportu-
nifty. 1t is further understood that the
Homestake; to protect its own rights.
is to aid the Black Hills Traction
company in its effort to retain it's
hold in the Black Hills.

VOTE FOR DIVISION OF BUTTE.
County Commissioners Act FavorabIy
on Petitioners.

The Butte county commissioners
have granted petitions which will
mean vote in November to cut that
county into three separate organiza
lions, one in the northeast corner to
be known as Perkins county and one
in the northwest to be known as
Harding county. This would cut
Butte county proper down to about
what it originally was before the
county expansion scheme of ten years
ago.
The people of Lennon are pushing
for the northeast county, and ask for
about eighty townships, covering all
that part of Butte between the state
nine and the northern line of Meade
county, or what is known as the Jog
portion Of the county, and want it
named Perkins. They expect 'coun-
ty seat by the move regardless Of
their geographical location in the pro
posed new county.
The county wanted as Harding
would only revive an old name, as
most of the territory asked for in tEis
county was at one time under that
name. The people of Camp Crook
are pushing this move, and are after
a county seat They want that part
of Butte extending from the west line
of the proposed Perkins county to the
Montana line, and from the North Da
kota line south to the line between
townships IA and ID.
Either of the proposed new coun
ties and Butte county as left would be
called Immense, and will be large
enough for further division with great
ar population.
