LAST GREAT TREATY MADE BOYS MAKE A BAD SIAkl
Two Youngsters Start Out to Subdue
the Wild and WooIIy West and Are
Stopped in Their Mad Career BY
the Strong Arm Of the Law-Tak'
en- Back Home.

Grand Harbor, Sept. 28.-Three
young sons of prominent Grand Har-
Dor farmers, the eldest, fifteen and
the youngest twelve, became tired OF
the monotony of farm life Sunday,
and set out to explore the wild and
woolly west, fully equipped with an
outfit of shot guns and blankets.
They got as far as Churchs Ferry
during the day, and there they were
stopped by Marshal Olson, who was
warned of their coming by Sheriff
Bedford, to whom the parents had
telephoned Immediately upon miss
ing the boys. Sheriff Bedford in
structed the marshal to put them in
the Ferry jail over night, to give
them a. taste of the hardships they
might meet during their travelling,
and bring them up today, but Mar
shall Olson rushed the game and
started from the Ferry at 3 o'clock
this morning to bring them down
here. They arrived shortly after
o'clock and Sheriff Belford called up
the parents to notify them that the
boys were safe and sound. Marshal
Olson started off Immediately to re-
turn them to the Grand Harbor
homes, and the boys did not seem
so very sorry to be back in the neigh
borhood of home cooking, although
their future seemed little clouded
by consideration of what vengeance
would be melted out to them by their
outraged families.

Government Takes Important Step
for Opening of the Fort 6ertho'd
Reservation Abbott and Hanna
Treat With the Reds -- Will Be
Rich Lands for Farmers.

Schafer, ". D., Sept. 28.-What,in
all probability, will be the last OF the
great treaty conference between the
white and red men held on the banks
of the Missouri, took place a few
DAYS ago when F. H. Abbott, assist
ant United States commissioner or
Indian affairs, and Congressman Han
ma of North Dakota visited Elbowoods
the Headquarters Of the Fort Berth
old reservation in North Dakota, and
conferred with the chiefs, medicine
men and big braves of the Mandan,
Rees and eros Ventres, relative TO
the opening of the reservation next
year.
The Indians received the big white
chiefs with a show of frendiliness and
treated with them in long powWoW.
The officials were given places in the
center of large circle formed by the
redskins, who sat upon the ground,
putting out hugh clouds of smoke
from the long stemmed peace pipes.
Three young braves acted as in
terpreters and repeated in chorus the
words of Chief Abbott. Their words
we're received in stolid silence except
for a few grunts- One old camp
chief temporarily delayed the confer
ence by leaving the ring to kick his
squaw because she had not put
enough tobacco in his peace pipe and
it had gone out in the presence OF
the pale-face chiefs.
At the close of Commissioner Alb
bolts explanation of the terms of the
treaty, the chief of the Rees arose
and spoke. The chief of the fair
headed Mandans followed with a long
discourse, and then came the closing
speech by the son of the great CHIEF
Grow Fly High of the eros Ventres
The powwow then broke up and the
three chiefs withdrew to hold sol
emn counsel. They have not yet
made their decision, but It Is believ
ed they will consent to surrender
of their lands. -
There are only LOO members Of
the three tribes left. At one time
they were among the most numerous
of the Dacotahs and claimed a large
part of the upper Missouri valley as
their hunting grounds. Their mum
hers we're greatly reduced by the
fierce attacks of the Assinibone Sioux
the Red Devils of the North" and
also by smallpox, which killed them
by the hundreds about the middle Of
the last century. At the time of the
Custer massacre their reservation ex
tended to Fort Buford on the Mon
tana line. After that most of it was
taken from them and they were push
ed back to the Missouri by the sold
iers, though until very recent years
they were permitted by the govern
ment to hunt all through the west
ern part of North Dakota.
The three tribes have always been
peacable, though they bitterly resent
ed the ruthless slaughter Of the buf
fa1os which followed the building OF
the Northern Pacific through the Da
kotas. If the chiefs accept the Offer
of the government, every brave,
squaw and pa2oose will receive a
quarter section on both the east and
west sides of the Missouri, and be
made rich by the sale Of the remain.
der Of the veral hundred thousand
acres of good land which now com
prises the reservation.

A New System to Rails. Kids

DIR. Julia Sears, a society doctor is
called q renowned metaphysician" and
spoke before the National Society of
Musical Therapeutics" in New York
City the other day.
In the first place we would like to
know what that last thing is? We can
make running jump of guess at the
first title, but the last one never grew
nor hourished west of Patterson ZEN
Jay and we'll bet on 1t.
Now this woman declares it is fool
ishness to punish kid when he won't
mind. She does not say it just that
way. Here's what she does say: do
not punish your children when they are
'recalcitrant.' .. e..
'Recalcitrant" is good. When a kid
of boy feeds baby sister half a pint
of neat cognac so she won't bother him
for piece of his apple pie, we suppose
he is'iecalcitrant," oh, and should not
be punished, what3,
- DT.SSears says further. sit to your
piano and play for them. -,By~so doing
you will tranquillize their emotions and
restore their vibrations to normality"
This is the limit. When q boy plays
hockey, tramps down to Empire and
spends the whole day in and out of the
river, tramps home again in the evening
tired and wet and hungry, don't give
him good supper and better thrash
ing and send him to bed, that's all
wrong, his vibrations amt in shape.
Take him to the parlor and play
something soft and soothing on the
piano for him, you may even he able
to get him to sing little. Keep it up
and'when you notice by the CLINT of
his eye that he is back to "normality"
then take a good CAD and whale him
until he promises to not play hockey
again. Repeat the dose as often as
required, but never whale him until
that ''normality" thing is back in place
and the only way to get it back in place
is to thump the piano for him.
Tranquilize him ut all costs. If he
persists in his detection -tranquillize
him some more. That's Dr. Julia
Sears system. We would like to hike
back to Oscawanna, N. Y. and be
raised over again by DR.. Julia Sears.
We could stand lot of that tran
QUILTING business. We had to stand a
lot of the other system. This new
notion may not be as good for the boy
but is sounds a lot easier to take

THE CANDLE BACK IN FAVOR.
Artistic Holders Employed for the H.

Generation.

The woman whose aim is to reveal
. touch of the artist In her home just
at present is interested in the old
fashioned candlestick. 1t is revival
as happy in It's way as that Of the re.
turn to favor Of Shefield or pewter
ware. The candle held It's own against
the oil lamp. but lost its popularity
when gas came in. and 1t was practi-
cally outlawed when electricity came
into general use. Now. however, many
women OF society are using candles ex-
tensively. One society leader, in fact.
has gone to the extreme of having
electric fixtures removed from several
rooms. relying entirely upon candles
for lighting. These candles she dis
plays in antique candlesticks of beaten
brass. Tall Russian candlesticks now
are seen on many library tables and
tall silver colonial sticks are on many
dressing tables. New candlesticks are
shown in pottery and wrought iron
but antiques are first In favor. The
prices of old brass candlesticks have
advanced greatly in the last few weeks
and few now are to be found in the
antique shops.

Smart Touch for a Handbag.

A New York woman recently discov-

small, gold-mounted handbag, with a
leather strap. The latter having be-
come rusty from constant friction with
the hand, she removed the strap, riv-
eted the gold chain on with gas pliers
and, behold! an added smart touch
without expense or recourse to Jew
eler. Since the passing of this style of
chain those who own ornaments of the
kind find them something of a prob
lem. The splendid workmanship often
makes the smelter's office seem sac
rifice. and to convert them into brace

In my mind, Mr. Pinchot is one of

see that the measure Ia maintained
afterward. A man exceedingly af-
fable and courteous. and, above all. a
man Of diplomacy.
"Mr. Pinchot is a man OF the day

be one of the foremost men in the

Mr.. Pinchot is highly educated, and
has served the government as spe-
