range on the west and the tocky
mountains on the east.
There are about 100000 acres Of
land in the Occur d'Alene reaerva-
ton which is now being classified as
agricultural and timber land. This
reservation Is said to contain some
very nne agricultural land.
Lake Occur d'Alene is a beautiful
body Of water about Is miles in
length, about one-third of which lies
within the reservation. At the sorth
end of the lake is Occur d'Alena city,
the registration point for the lands in
this reservation. Lake Coeur d'Alene
is becoming very popular as sum-
mer resort. Good fishing is to be had
and there are splendid bathing beaches
and opportunities for canoeing and
sailing.
The Spokane Indian reservation &C.
cupies the southern part of Stevens
county, Washington. It is bordered
on the south by the Spokane river.
on the east by Chamokane creek and
on the west by the Columbia river.
The reservation contains about 1t5, 900
acres of land which is now being
classified and appraised. There is
some timber land in this reservation,
but 1t Il not subject to entry.
The Indians on the Spokane reser.
walton are generally intelligent and
peaceable and all are self-suppo ring.
In character they are as far above
the vagabond Siwashes who frequent
the alleys and backdoors Of tho city
as the white farmers are above the
common hoboes. Chief Joseph, head
of the once powerful Nez Perez tribe,
who gave Gen. o. o. Howard his hard
est aght in frontier days, lived there
several years after his banishment
from the Snake river country. He
was the most intelligent Indian Of his
time and his death was deplorAd by
the whites and reds alike.
Antoine Shelea is the sole survivor
Of the old chieftains. He lives In the
Antoine valley. near the okalogan
river. In the early days there was
only one great chief. but before his
death he appointed three, one OF
whom is old Antoine, who is head Of
the tribe. Most of the Indians live In
houses and cultivate small farms,
while the squaws busy themselves
with basket making and beadwork, at
which they are adopts. They like to
visit and they are never too busy
to feast and talk Of the days that
were and Of those to come

rAE FIRST SUNDAY scHoOL.
Ms Humble Beginning in Gloucester
One Hundred Years Ago,
From st. Nicholas.)


Ose Sunday morning a hun
dred years ago, a workiDgmau,
carefully dressed in his best,
came out of his house on the
main street of the old English
town OF Gloucester and strolled
]eisurely down the hill. The
"New Inn" was fronted then,
ss it is today, by square gar
den overhung by the carved gal
leries of the tavern. There was
moss-clad we'll i'll the centre,
and about it were beds of sweet
smelling pinks and columbines
But the calm Of that Sunday
morning was destroyed by a
crowd Of street boys who fought
over the flower beds, making the
day hideous with their noise and
coarse talk.
The printer-for printing was
his work on week days-stopped
in the midst OF the crowd and
looked steadily at the boys.
Presently he said to himself i
AT this rate those boys will
soon 60 utterly to the bad. That
must not be! There are good
possibilities in them. Here.
boys" he called aloud, "come
with me ~
He led them yelling and push
ing down the street into his own
quiet house, planning as he went
how to keep them there.
Il am going" he said pres
entity, "to start a school for
you. Now and here. 1t shall
De free school; will be the
teacher"
The boys received the news
with shouts. They were too
ragged and grimy to 60 to church
on Sundays. No other decent
place was open to them. ID
The next Sunday his house,
was crowded with the same class
Of children.
The idea OF a free school on
Sunday appealed to every Chris
han as most hopeful plan for
the rescue of children from
wickedness. 1t spread through
the town, through the shire,
through England. 1t was adopted
In France and Germany; it made
it's way to Australia and to the
United States. Now, in every
country in the world and in every
sect there are these schools, in
which, every Sunday morning,
the Bible story is told, without
money and without price.
In the staid old city of Glou.
cester they still show you the
New Inn and the garden where
the boys t .yed, and the old
brown house with its peaked
root in which Robart Raikes,
that long-ago morning, taught
the fret Sunday School.
