their minds between the power of d
war horse and the thunder.
Tn thunder is often represented by
zigzag or wavy line, usually in req,
but DR.. Wissler says that this SYM
Dol really represents the power of the
phenomenon in the abstract, because
the Indian lacks the conception of a
force in nature, SO that the symbol
is also a general sign for the pres
ence of mysterious supernatural power
Whistles made from the leg and wing
bones of eagles are employed by the
Dakotas to symbolic the cry of the
eagle as representative of the thun-
der bird. In battle, or sometimes in
stress of great trial they are sounded
to summon the aid of the power of the
thunder. As a rule a zigzag line is
scratched down the sides of these
whistles.
The yellow winged woodpeeker is
looked upon as an associate of the
thunder bird, because when a storm
is approaching it utters a shriH cry
not unlike the sound of the whistle.
and is believed to be speaking to the
thunder.
The spider is spoken Of as a friend
of the thunder, and it is the general
belief that the thunder will never
harm it, so that it is itself a prOtec-
ton against thunder The observed
fact that a spider manufactures a
web and that this web is not DESTROYED
by arrows or bullets, since they pass
through it, leaving only a hole. is cited
as the basis for the conception that
the spider has power to protect people
from harm.

llBERAlITY OF LEHI MAN
Purchases Tract of Land and Pre-.
sents 1t to City for Park
PURPOSES.

Lehi, March 1S.-Ira d. Wines has ac-
quired title to the block bounded by Cen
ter, First West, Fifth North and Sixth
North streets, and has offered it to the
citizens of Lehi for a city park, only ask
ing that they beautify it and keep it for
park purposes. He also proposes to re-
model the old Union hotel and make of it
a modern hosiery, spending several thou
sand dollars to make ii a mecca for the
travellers, many of whom now pass Lehi
by because of the present inadequate hotel
facilities.
Mr.. Wines generosity and progressive
spirit Is also acting as an elixir to the
Commercial club. whose officers have sent
out general call to all the members to
attend resurrection meeting next Friday
evening, when reorganization will be
effected and the club get down to bust
ness again.
The Civic Improvement league also has
caught the spirit and effected an organ
ization last evening by electing G. N
Child president and James Kirkham secre-
tary. A committee to help enforce the
city ordinances pertaining to sanitary
conditions and keeping sidewalks In re-
pair was appointed, another committee
having in charge the educational and

WAS TO WORK OUT DEBT.
Peculiar Case Tried Involving lnsur-
ance Premium.

a case involving a peculiar contract
alleged to have been made by life insur-
ance company was tried yesterday before
Judge Ritche of the district court and
taken under advisement.
The suit is that of the Continental Life
Insurance company against William p.
Michael on a promissory note for $50.
Michael is a railroad man and is now in
California. In a deposition read to the
court he claims that he was approached
by the agent of the company to take out
some insurance. He agreed to do so on
the condition that he be allowed to work
out the premium. A contract was en-
tered into, according to his claim, where
by he was to use his influence and wor1
among railroad men for sixty days in
the interests of the company and that
at the end of that time his note for $50
would be returned to him whether he
secured any business or not. The COM
pany denies this and says that he was to
secure a certain amount of insurance in
order to escape the payment of his pre-
MUM which he failed to do.

harmless little whirl one sees upon
| the plains every clear day. The long
slender column betraying its presence
makes a profound impression upon the
| Indian.
In the whirlwind somehow and some
| wheree resides the power to produce
confusion of mind. Thus it was ma
! tural that its aid should have been in
voked by the warriors on going into
| battle, for to be as intangible, invis-
IDLE and destructive as the wind was
their one great desire. When a man
loses his presence of mind he is said
to have been overcome by the whirl-
wind.
A cocoon of a moth takn with a
portion of the twig upon which it was
found and wrapped in an eagle plume,
or down, is regarded as a perpetual
prayer to the power of the whirlwinC
This prayer is not only symbolized by
the genuine cocoon worn upon the per
son, but also by its image in stuffed
buckskin or by its sketched or paint
ed representation.
The Blackfeet see relation between
the moth and sleep and appeal to il
when they desire to have dreams, for
with them power is always conferred
in a dream. In the case of unrequited
love the whirlwind is invoked. 1t is
believed that II can confuse the mind
of girl to such a degree that she
can not resist the pleadings of the en-
amored swain.
Some of the DakOtaS believe that the
bear controls the power of the whirl-
wind. and that a prayer must be ad-
dressed to the animal for the assist
ance of the whirlwind. Sometimes a
person will receive power from the
bear in a dream or vision, and thus
come to have the aid of the whirl-
wind because of the conceived rela-
ton between the two. Finally, the
power of the whirlwind is also SUD-
posed to be associated with the buff
falo and the spider web.
A deity of equal importance among
the Indians of the plains is the thun-
der which usually is associated with
military exploits. While the Dakotas
generally regard the thunder as a bird.
usually symbolized by the eagle, they
sometimes speak of it as a horse,
man or a dog.

Thomas Jefferson was strongly CD

should not be permitted to tax the Amer |

SOME QUEER BELIEFS.
Dakotas Think Connection Exists
Between Moth and WhirlWind.

The Dakotas believe that there is a
close relation between the whirIwind
and the fluttering wings of a moth.
says Discovery magazine. The cocoon
is regarded as the mysterious object
from which power similar to that
CT the whirlwind emanates, as attest
ed by the emergence from ii of the
moth.
DR.. Wissler explains that the whirl-
wind meant by the Dakotas is the
