Sioux indians to Resume Primitive
Life in Nicaragua

Sioux indians to Resume Primitive
Life in Nicaragua
Two hundred Sioux Indians, grow
ing tired of the joys and benefits of
civilization as introduced on the Indi-
an reservations of the West, have de-
termined to emigrate to country in
which they may return to the primi-
tive condition of existence before the
coming of the white man. The move
ment has been under way for many
months, but has only just come to
light since an emissary of the discon-
tented Indians returned from Mica
rauga with the news that President
Zelaya had granted to the Sioux an
immense tract of land upon which
they may settle and live according to
the ancient customs of the tribe. The
lands granted them are in wild
state and so high up the mountains
that the climate approaches that of
the present Sioux country. Game
abounds there and except for the alb
sence of the buffalo the Indians can
live the, primitive life of the early
Sioux
In return for the big tract of land,
the Indians have agreed to take the
field and fight for Zelaya whenever
called upon by him, and hereafter
when an overambitious Nicaraguan
starts a revolution against the rule of
Zelaya the revolutionists will run UP
against body of the fiercest and best
fighting Indians on the North Ameri-
can continent Many of the braves
fought with Sitting Bull, Gall and Red
Cloud and while these men are up
ward of 80 years old, their mode of
living has kept them in fine fettle and
they are a formidable body of men.
The Indians who will emigrate are
all landowners, their holdings having
been allotted by the government last
year. Each head of a family received
800 acres for himself and 100 acres
additional for each child. In leaving
this country the Indians will not lose
possession >of this land, nor can they
dispose of it b. sale until rs years
after its allotment. However, the land
can be rented or leased for as long
term as desired and the Indians are
preparing to lease their lands to
white men. With the money received
from these leases the trip to Nicarau-
qua will be made. The start for their
new home will be made in the fall

TRAMPS MADE BY HARD TIMES.

suits of Recent Depression.

Government Inspector Describes Re
suits of Recent Depression.
The recent business depression had
demoralizing effect on certain classes
of laborers, according to the report OF
C. l.. Green, inspector in charge of the
New York city branch of the division
of information of the department of
commerce and labor, submitted to L.
V. Powderly, chief of the division, for
the six months ended June 80.
Enforced idleness during this
period caused men to resort to every
known device to live without employ
ment," the inspector declares. Find
ing it possible to exist, idleness seems
to have become habit, and now that
the parks are pleasant and the fields
are hot they prefer to enjoy them, liz
ing as best they can
Inspector Green makes it plain, how
ever, that he does not mean by the
foregoing statement to say or to inn
ply that he refers to all persons, but
only to certain classes.
The report shows that during the
fiscal year just closed 1872 men OBJ
tanned employment in the various
states through information given by
his bureau. 1t is stated that, com
pared with previous periods, the de-
mand for farm laborers has been alb
normal, as has the demand for COM
mon laborers, and wages showed con-
siderable Improvement during the last
six months. Recently a marked i'm
provemcnt has occurred in quality,
though there was a decrease in num-
Der of men applying for information,
it is stated, and the percentage of ap
plicants directed to employment has
increased materially for these reasons.

is quite different, and every passage
has either an obvious or a thinly con-

the following story from Fliegende

The composer had just played his
last piece to his friend, the critic.
Very fine, indeed said the critic.
