THE WHITE AND THE RED MAN.

The New Haven Register has some comments on a recent address by Dr. Charles A. Eastman. one of the most thoroughly educated and intelligent of the Sioux tribe of Indians. and writ CT of many books and essays. Dr. Eastman alluded especially to the strong physical and mental health of the Indians before they acquired any of the vices and bad habits of the white man. and The Register thinks we might learn many things of importance from the aboriGines. we Americans g The Register says, have our athletic exercIses. and we think we know and practice the rules of hygiene. But if we would know how to develop sound bodies and live long. we can learn A vast deal from a study of how the Indians lived. We need hardly adopt their frugality or their strenu- ous exposures and privations. but in the essentials of outdoor air by day and night, of regular exercise and other regular habits. of moderation and sense in eating and drinking. we can copy them with profit to ourselves and great relief of the burdens of the doctor"
 We pale faces do well to be proud of our high civilization and all that 1t has accomplished, but that civiliza- tion has brought its penalties. What ever we may say of them now. it Ia known that in their original state, before the white men came among them. the Indians were an exception ally strong aud robust race. both men- tally and physically. They had thei' superstitions and their religious ee eentricities but if we trace our own ancestry back a few centuries we don't know that we have much to

Say it in Impossible to Observe Sixteen
 Hour Law.
 Harrisburg, Pa, March 27.-Railroad trainmen are in a quandary about the Federal sixteen hour law. and have ap- pealed Co the State Railroad Cornmis- sion.
 A delegation of freight trainmen em- ployed by the Philadelphia and Read ing Company Laid their case before the commission. They say the law pro- vides that no crew shall be kept at work more than sixteen hours continu- ously, and that at the end of such work each member shall have at least eight hours rest. They say 1t Is is difficult to observe such a rule on the railroad.
 At a recent wreck at Rossmoine on the Reading Railway. the wrecking crew was at work eighteen hours; it was impossible to relieve the men. The trainmen say further that often the sixteen hour limit expires when they are only a few miles from a ter minal point.
 They want to know whether it is their duty to stop work and tie up traflc under such circums stances or to take the train to the end of the run.
