braves of the Shoshone and Arapahoe
tribes of the Wind river reservation "a
Wyoming called on the Great White
Father at the White house Wednes-
day morning and their leader, Little

The president shook hands with his
red children and told Little Wolf how
pleased he was to meet him and re-
ceive from his hands the pouch and
pipe. The bag is a %capacious buck
skin affair, worked with beads of many
colors and stained porcupine quilts.
When Little Wolf left the White
house he proudly bore away an auto

which the latter had given him. Ate"
leaving the White house, the Indians

spects t. Secretary Taft. After the
usual exchange of greetings the chief

and asked the secretary to be their
guest on an expedition during the com
ling summer Secretary Taft expressed
his pleasure at the invitation and as
sured them that if opportunity offered
itself he would be more than pleased
to accept their hospitality.

e. F. Gaskell, who came to Laramie

John Mast, who came to Cheyenne

1t is strange how suddenly condi.

night the university halls were file /

nesday morning the old clock looked
down and found only a few stragglers,
hurrying about with an air of settled
gloom, or conversing in tones that sug-

the I'D clock knew that it was exam
in" ion time, and with a note of trag-
ydy which it reserves for such sad
days, it tolled out the hour of nine.
connection with this all too solemn sea-
son is the shocking levity displayed by
the faculty. One member was caught
smiling, and another shamelessly re-
marked that he had given a very pleas
urable examination that afternoon. Yet
once in a while the students find re-
venge, sweet even in its meagerness,
for some faculty members are regis
tered in regular classes. 1t is a long
lane, however, that has nc turning, and
after a weeks rest, the students will
return, able again to discuss with en-
thusiasm the basketball score, the glee
club tour and other topics of consunl-
ing interest. May the number of soul.
chilling reports be less this term than
ever before.
Yesterday afternoon all university
boys met in the study hall to discuss
the formation of a Young Mems Chris

FOR OUR CITY SCHOOLS.

The Advertiser, in another column publishes this morning an earnest plea from the City Board of Education to'4he people of Montgomery to sup port the proposed issue of S14o,00o of bonds for school purposes at the polls on December A. The bond issue should be given thought and consid- eration by the voters of Montgomery.
 The Advertiser heartily endorses the proposed issue. It is wise and it is necessary. The citys schools can not grow and they. cannot discharge their full duty without the Improvements, which the bond issue will provide. The Board of Education feels keenly the necessity for the additional build ings and the improved equipment which will be made possible by the bond issue. The city is faced by this condition-the extensions and im- provements are needed and needed right now. They cannot be had with out a bond issue.
 The bond issue must garry. or Mont gomery in educational work will drop behind other Southern cities. we should not permit that.

HE WAS HAPPy.

What constitutes happiness? is question that we imagine would find many widely different answers if it should be put before the public as a subject to be defined and answered. The poets and the lexicons can all give us a definition, but about the most unique one that we have seen comes from a ten-year old English boy. It was written as a school com position. and its genuIneness is vouchsd for by The Guardian, of Man chester, England. It runs as follows:
 My life has been a very lucky one. When I was three years old I fell downssatrs add cut my head. When I was five years old was looking at some hens. and . dog bit my leg. brother in the trap, and tho horse fen and. threw us out Of tho trap, my brother lit on his feet and It on the ing, and ran into a 1urey and cut my eyebrow, and it has left a mark. Che day l went into the slaughter house, and a big sheep ran after me and knocked me down. I have had a hap py life.
 taAG Ab NAat thAo COAApVSAttOD was typical of English Doyhood, but we are inclined to think that boys are pretty much the same all the world over. To get hurt, skinned, bruised. scalped and otherwise banged and bunged up gives the average boy something to brag about to his conn rades and something to show in the way of fun and adventure. The com position reminds The Boston Traveller of the remark of an English soldier wao participated in one af the first battles of the South African war. After he was able to write he wrote i.cme from the hospital to his family and sentSthem the tunic he had worn during the fight. You will sts," he wrote. that there are eleven bullet holes in it, but was awfully lucky. only six of them hit me"
 The English school-hoy seems to have had something of the same ideas in his head. He was glas to have been hurt SO often and proud that he was not killed. No doubt he Is the envy of all the other boys who look on him as one who has had many and various hair-breadth 'scapes and is boy whose record any of them would be proud to bear. If he keeps it up till he is grown the famous old Baron Munchausen will be outclassed.

HrsToRY IN THE MAKING.

The Advertiser this morning would call special attention to the first in- stallment of the "Reminiscences of General Thomas S. woodward, pub iished on another page.
 These letters of the old pioneer who had wide reputation for bravery. en- terprise- and ability in early days are published in his old state more than fifty years after they were writ ten and he wrote thenS in the evening of a long and active life. General Woodward came into Alabama while the eastern and part of the central portions of Alabama were known as the Creek Nation. He lived among the Indians. knew their customs. their language and their traditions. A few years later the white settlers came in; among them General Woodward rose to some distinction by his ca pacity and strength of character. For thirty years. covering the States pio- nesr, period General Woodward lived in what is now Alabama.
 He tells of Indian chiefs, of pio- -neers, of public leaders. of early cons 'ditions. just as he saw them. Much that he writes was never wfitten be- fore and has never been written since. The letters form the finest
 
 personal Indian and pioneer history of Alabama ever written.
 No thoughtful Alabamian should fail to read them. An installment of them will appear each Sunday. Their pub iication will cover a period of about three months.

FOR THE NEW WHARF.

On Monday December 14, an elee- tion for the issuance of municipal bonds for various purposes. will be held in the city. and its importance should appeal to the voters and tax payers. Amongst the issue are eie,Oo0 for wharf and warehouse facilities. For years the citizens and merchants have been striving for regulating in- fluenees't in the fixing of rates and the development of trade along the river and in contiguous territory. What Montgomery has olost by reason of the. lack of terminal facilities is almost ipealeulable, The Freight Bu- reau has spent thousands or dollars in trying to establish Montgomerys rights to more equitable adjustment of through or interstate rates. For upwards of g year the City Council has made efforts to supply this much needed want of our wholesale mer- chants and shippers. but were only deterred by reason of d seant treas ury. The plan now proposed is a feasible one with very little. if any, cost to the taxpayers, because the wharf and warehouse as planned will be sslf-supporting, so that as a busi- ness proposition it should appeal to every business man In the, city, and the measure should merit the affirm ative support of the community. Every voter who has the welfare of the city at heart should cast vote in favor of the bond issue. The entire issue to be voted on deserves the careful and considerate attention of the vot- CTS, and it is hoped a large vote will be cast on Monday, the 14th inst.

 Tn your report of the proceedings of the Baptist Centenary Celebration your reporter quotes me in substance The old fear of less enlightened people, that their children might be hurt by lack of home influence when sent away to college, was disappear ing, and the conduct of the denomi- national educational institutions were such that the students were possibly under better influence than amid the temptations of city and town life"
 This is not a correct statement. Tn my response to the greeting from oth- CT denominations referred to the ex- cellent work that was being done in our schools by the Y. M. c. A. and r. w. c.
