REWARD OF TREACHERY.

Daniel J. Keefe of Detroit president
of the international Longshoremen's
union. mas been appointed commissioner
general of immigration. to succeed the
late Krank P. Sargent. Keefe was one
of the vice presidents of the Federation
of Labor and signed up with Gompers
Mitchell and the other leaders to sup
port Bryan on account OF the labor
plank in the Denver platform. After
visit to the White House he turned
political somersault and landed in the
Taft camp. 1t was stated by other la
Dor leaders who were in Washington al
the time that Keefe had been promised
the commissionership as a reward for
his treachery TO his fellow workmen.
This was denied on the authority of the
executive and Keefe himself. One of
the labor leaders in question made an
affidavit as TO the truth of the charge,
and then the matter was allowed to
drop.
The announcement of the appoint
ment of Keefe will cause no surprise.
owing principally to the fact that so
many of the White House deniaIs,
statements and assertions have been
wide of the truth. and also that there
are Iscariots, Arnolds and Keefes in
every walk of life, and. OF course. or
ganized labor could not reasonably ex-
pect TO be exempt. Keefe bartered his
honor and sold his friends for Office.

 The interiors of their houses were not very different from those of the modern pueblo Indians. All sorts of stone and clay vessels for cooking. mtXing. and holding food. for contain ing salt and different courses of the meal and for transporting. storing and distributing water. were found. Stone knives. bark platters. baskets and nets torches and gourds made up part of the household furnishings For beds. heaps of softened grass held by a net of leaves. and for pillows of grt's leaves were used Bunches of corn blades folded over and tied. and new corn ears. strung on cord. were hung about the cliffhouses. and beans and maize were stored in jars or mat bas- kets
 Art and Industries.
 Among the specimens brought back showing what sort of arts and induS- tries these Gila peoples practiscd. there arc stone axes. hammers. and rubbing lstones. and disks of all sorts. shell or naments for the purposes mentioned above. bone implements and dccora- tions. usually colored with pigments. | wooden ceremonial apparatus. bows and arrows. fiber cloth dyed in various colors. baskets of d number of intri- cate weaves, and pottery of many shapes and hucs, bowls. platters and small figures.
 How they amused themselves is shown by d number of rude reed and bone dice. and reed and yucca flutes, and wooden and gourd drums and rattles
 Although it is impossible to tell the sound ot their spoken language, pie ture writings of human and animal animal figures, tracks of bears and turkeys. symbols Cf the sun. water. and stars. geometric designs. and rudely drawn realistic scenes of hunting, show that they had something in common with later Indians.
 By examining many pieces of cere- monial paraphernalia and offerings of beads. stones. crystals etc. from the shrines. and by comparing these with the offerings of more modern Indians. some idea may be obtained of their religious beliefs and practices.
 Dr. Hough does not attempt d com plete report on the religion and every thing that may be gleaned from the surviving evidences of this long-for- gotten culture. He gives merely the main features of each of the separate ruins and monuments in the upper parts of the Gila and Salt valleys.

In fact besides these finds. the party visited a hundred and seventy four caves. cliff dwellings. pueblos. shrines. and monrAnents of these forgotten peo- ple and brought back four or five thousand stone implements. specimens uf pottery. bones. and other relics. But the results of this expedition are important because of the accurate story that may be built up around these proofs of certain degree of civilization. the picture Of the life arts and industries of prehistoric tribes. that all this material outlines to the archeologist and ethnoiogist.
 pr. Houghs account of the results of this trip is just published as a bulletin of the Bureau of American Ethnology of the Smithsonian Insti- tuition under the direction of which institution the National Musuem is also conducted.
 The region traversed is in south western New Mexico and southeastern Arizona. Most of it for a number of years has been carefully guarded by the government in four forest reserves and an Indian reservation. It is a very uneven country. Mountains ranging over 5000 feet above sea level. covered with a dense growth of pine constitu ting part of the greatest virgin forest remaining in the United States. slope dowf in less than SU miles to cactus covered plains. The roughness of the region. rendering communication diff ficult probably had much to do with the many different varieties of culture represented by the remnants of dwell lings and the specimens of handiwork found there.

Hints About Canning Fruit.

From the Housekeeper for July.
 In order to be successful in canning fruit it is necessary that care be taken in the selection as well as the preparation of the fruit. The best fruit should be se- lected and the jars thoroughly sterilized before the fruit is put into them. With the exception of pears and gooseberries all fruits used for canning should be ripe when picked, and canned while fresh. Pears are better if picked before thor oughly ripe and allowed to ripen in the house, while gooseberries are used before they ripen Do not begin the process of canning fruit until you have your fruit and cooking utensils all in readiness and then complete the process as rapidly as possible. Granite or porcelain pans are best for this purpose and they should be shallow in order that the fruit may be on- ly one layer deep. This allows it to cook quickly, which is the secret of It's being light colored and fine favored, and it also makes it possible to handle it so as to avoid breaking it. Never think to econo- mize by using old rubbers on the jars for you can buy a good many rubbers with the price of one jar of fruit.
