or range at the disposal of the weav- fer included the brilliant red o{ the bayeta mahogany, blue, yellow, green, black white and gray. These colors are absolutely fast, withstand ing the exposure of years to sun and hard wear, only growing softer as do the shades in Oriental rugs. The dying of the wool at this time was hard tedious task. The weaver re- garded her materials as valuable, and took great pains with her weay- ing and the highest type of blanket resulted. So exquisitely fine was the weave so beautiful the designs, so perfect the color harmony, so bar barrie the effect, that the best of this period are as beautiful as tapestries and deserve to be treated so.
 The introduction of the cheap commercial dyes was an innovation greatly to be deplored. It brought decadence to Navajo land as 1t did to Persia. However, barbarbic the effect of the old color schemes, the abundant use of the natural colors especially of the soft gray, always maintained harmony.
 The blankets of which I have written so far, have been entirely of native wool: that is, those made from the wool of their own sheep, en- tirely prepared by the Navajo squaw. In the early sos Germantown yarn was. introduced by the traders and many beautiful blankets have been and are made of 1t. These German town blankets are finer than are the native wool made at present and are for that reason, preferred by many people. A certain sentiment exists among the lovers of this bar barrie art in favor of the blanket made entirely by the Indians
 Two Kinds of Blankets.
 The Germantown blankets are fringed; the native wool have tassels at the corners symbolizing the four four corners of the earth. This sym bolism is regarded as very important by the Navajo women, and when the tassels wear of an old rug they are at once replaced. In size the blank cts vary from twenty-four to thirty six inches for saddle blankets, to fifty-four by eightyFour for serapes. For their own use and for sale they weave many of medium size, heavy native wool for floor rugs. These rugs will wear a lifetime, growing only more beautiful as they wear their surfaces smooth, and time softens their colors. No more ap- propriate or satisfact%y rugs could be found for halls, dens porches- anywhere, in fact, where their strong bright shades do not kill more sub dued color schemes. The Navajo wo- men does not work from pattern, and, except in the cheapest and coarsest blankets which are often in stripes and very similar, design is never repeated. Among the thous- ands which a curio dealer has han dled. he assures me he has never found a duplicate.
 The symbolism of the figures is largely borrowed from the Pueblo pottery, all being reduced to straight lines and angles, for the Navajo nev- CT uses curves ip weaving. Into the blanket she weaves, this daughter of thel desert puts the story of her own life or that of her family. It raises her to a dignity that demands our respect, and makes for her otherwise dreary task a place unique in the worlds craftsmanship.

THE CENTRALIZED SCHOOL IN
INDIANA

Evidently the agricultural mind of
the entire western country ia giving
more attention to the subject of agri-
cultural education, not merely in the
agriculture colleges and short courses
and judging schools, but in the rural
schools as we'll 1t is quite clear that
within few years to come teachers in
rural schools who know nothing about
agriculture, and don't care to know
anything about il, will be at discount.
Teachers who are in thorough sym.
pathy with farm life and who know how
room with the problems of the farm,
will have the preference, If not ex-
come to make selection.
There is a feeling in the minds OF a
good many people that while there is
not too much money spent for the edu-
cation OF the few who can reach the
high school and the college and the
university, there is not nearly enough
money spent on the education of the
many who can not. 10 connection with
this the problem arises, whether some
readjustment Of school districts must
not be made that wilt give to the NAM

MOST of The insurgents are pretty well
pleased with the ruling of the supre me
court last week on the primary law
The ruling gives to the party commit
tees he making of the apportionments
and cuts out all hl,ng fees and the
clause allowing the county committees
10 appoint delegates to state conven-
tons. All the esseutial features remaiu.
Justice Fuller dissents, on The ground
that the law prohibits the voter from
vo ing far nybody else than the candi-
dates placed on the ticket for him by
some body else, thus depriving him of
his right to vote for men and measure 5
Of his own initiative. There Was CON

SO much space to 1t last week that 1T

sthe Clay county delegation, in their
caucus just before the convention,
while voting for Gamble for the senate
also endorsed Martin for reelection to

Curious Origin OF This Terrible Engine
of Destruction.

The origin OF the Maxim gun was
somewhat curious. Mr.. Maxim (Sir
Hiram after the close OF the great
civu war in America was visiting one
OF the southern battletields. He picked
up Springfield rifle and began firing
at target. He soon discovered. 10 his
amazement, that his shoulder was all
black and blue with the recoi This
set him thinking, and he soon con
ceived the Idea Of utilizing this force
III gun which would fire automatic
ally.
He went to London full of his idea,
but no one would listen to him. In
Birmingham the chief man In fac
tory refused to make bolt gun.
In despair Mr. Maxim packed up his
trunks and went to Paris In two
weeks the work was done. This gun
MIR. Maxim exhibited In London In
1885. He spoke of 1t then as the gun
of the future. 1t is now the gun of the
present. 1t Is u wonderful gun and a
deadly one. By adjusting the indica-
tor ii will fire bullets at any rate from
one per minute to 900.
This terrible weapon is started by
the firing of the first shot After that
1t works itself and will keep going as
long as cartridges can be fed into the
machine. When one belt of 333 is ex-
hausted, all that is necessary is to
hook on another.
When the British government gave
an order for the gun they stipulated
that 1t should not weigh more than a
hundred pounds and should be capable
Of firing thousand rounds In four
minutes. Mr.. Maxim produced gun
which weighed thirty-five pounds and
fred 1900 rounds In three minutes
