Observations of a Kaw Squaw
Made on a Friday while digging
wild potatoes on the Kaw river
bank near Oakland.

Some time ago I went to society
function every afternoon for week,
went for recreation and variety and
to enjoy the social whirl. 1 wore the
same blanket and beads and mecca
sins every afternoon. So did nearly
every other squaw there They were
all clean and so I thought it was all
right But Forl Chief says every
day certain society column had
says it noted that the beads just
matched the tone of the self col
ored" blanket. But then Forl Chief
thinks much of clothes. For myself,
I have worn the same blanket two
seasons, and have to use it to wrap
the papooses in too, sometimes, and
to put on the pony in the rainy wealth
er.
But as to the giddy variety of func-
ton doings: Everybody was invited
every day for 3 p. m. Nobody came
parties for visiting squaws from other
reservations. Promptly at p. m.
the same cake and ice cream came
smiling round with the bloom of per-
petual youth upon them, and the same
goodbyes were said. Up in the dress
ing room one of the sQuaws gave as
near war whoop as a Topeka lodge
ever hears, and then she said:
I'm going to break the treaty and
have series of parties for the women
whom 1 see the whole year through.
I'll welcome the visitors gladly, but
along side every foreign guest of hon

Being heather squaw, 1 take the
back seat In the church generally. Last
Sunday looked at the heather lot Of
hats on Christian heads and wondered
if big fine hbered brains could he

neat little brain boxes, and clothed
with such soft little covering of hair.
why the hats that crowned the heads
should be such monstrous abortions of
beauty. When the service began and
the hats came off and I saw the
switches and caps and rats and things
that covered the hair, the sheds and
ay windows. and other outbuildings
on the neat little brain boxes 1 knew
then what the hats were for, SO 1 just
pulled my blanket up over my braids
and counted my wampum with closed
eyes, SO I could really worship, and not
have to settings. Next Sunday I

in the church before service but
opened them quick for I thought by
the giggling and talking all around me

quick to see If the ice cream and cake
were on the way.
And observing churches, it seems to
me down here on the Kaw bank where
it is quiet, it seems to me, I say, that
we have lost the sanctuary place out of
them There is no longer a haven
wherein the spirit is safe, no holy of
holes where only worship and quiet
and prayer belong. I'm a happy hope
full squaw sinner, and believe in this
good old world, but life is after all only
a pendulum in its customs When we
have swung to the forward limit of our
little arc, we must swing back again
sometimes, lest we lose our mooring to
the old same eternal truth unchanging
in a world of changes. Good night
now Pm going to take my potatoes
and go home.

Western Pacific Will Run First Train
About August %.

Preparations are going forward rap
idly for the Inauguration of passenger
service on the new Western Pacific
railroad, and If present plans are car
ried out the road will be placed in full
operation throughout its entire length,
for both passenger and freight traffic,

not maintained regular schedule.
Business taken has been principally
slow freights, but officials of the road
expect to start upon a regular fast
freight schedule during August. About
the same time, passenger service will
be installed. This would be under
way now had the company been able
to secure cars ordered.

six months by the manufacturers, but
the road has received promise OF
their delivery next month, following
which 1t will establish regular pas

NEW LINE 10 FORT RILEY.
Rumor OF Connection Between Man
haitian and Military Reservation.

ndIldn anu A~~N7~-
Manhattan, Kan, July 16.-The old
rumor that the Manhattan City &
Interurban Railway company is going
to build an electrical line to connect
Manhattan with Fort Riley was re-
vived with considerable abruptness
when E. M. Gravett, vice president of
the company, took c. M. Buck and
another engineer to the military reser-
walton and began driving stakes from
the end of the Junction City electrical
line to the east side of the reservation
near ogden.
The application was made to the
war department for the right to build
through the reservation and the COM
pany was asked for a map showing
where the line would run and the sur
Vey was made for this map. The 9TH
err known facts are that the company
owns a tract of land suitable for an
amusement park at Eureka Lake,
about half way between here and
Fort Riley, and there has been talk
frequently of the companys building
to the post. The soldiers stationed at
the post are just as eager to see the
line built as are the people of Man
haitian and there is little doubt that
Manhattan would get about half the
soldier trade that now goes entirely
to Junction City.
