sherum, Chief of the waIIapais, Dies

l
 Sherum, titular chief of the Wall
 apai tribe of Indians, died at his
 wickeup yesterday afternoon, sur.
 rounded by his wives and family. The
 old fellow had been ill for months and
 the tribe had been patiently awaiting
 the end of the once powerful chieftain,
 and during the days and nights pre-
 ceding his death the medicine men of
 the tribe had been using every effort
 to drive away the evil spirit. When
 it became known throughout the
 various camps in and around Kingman
 that the chief was dead there was a
 hurrying of the mourners to the house of death, and the lamentations over his bier appeared to be whole hearted sorrow, the tears streaming down the faces of the men and women alike, while the loud wailings could be heard all over the town. Within an hour the old chief was wrapped in valuable Navaho blankets, and sewed up with the fibre of the Spanish bayonets. His dying wish was that his remains be buried on the hillside near Canyon Station, about four miles east of Min eral Park, where other members of his family were either buried or burned. This request was strange one, as the old chief held firmly to the traditions of the tribe, which required the burn ing of the bodies of those dying a nat ural death, while burying was only ac- corded those who died violently.
 No one among the whites of this county knows just how old Sherum was, but among the old timers coming to this territory in the early seventies the chief was then a man advanced in years and holding unbounded sway over all the tribe. It is not probable that another chief will ever be chosen to take his place, as the members of the | tribe are fast drifting away from tribal restraint.
 Few among the white people that knew the wiley old chief during the early days in this territory will regret his death, as he was at all times an | foe. Even to the day of his death he rebelled against the en- croachment of the whites and used | every effort to prevent the education of the young Wallapais. He was and arrogant at all times and | his warlike spirit was only curbed by the knowledge that any hostile move would be met by the practical exter- imitation of the tribe.
 At daybreak this morning the fun eral cortege moved away from the camp west of town and as the last departed the wickeup was consigned to the flames, and then the long line of march was taken up that ended late yesterday in the mountain side of the Cerbats, where the chief made his home in the long ago, and where other chieftain's ashes were to the winds.

A Losing Game.

"By having record kept at the
cashiers desk Of pay checks which
patrons fail to turn in / sometimes
make up my losses" said the proprie-
tor of large restaurant. To-day a
man got a check for Go cents. 10 the
cashier he presented one for 25 cents.
The latter, glancing at his missing
check card. discovered that it was one
of the listed ones. OBTAINING the man,
he notified me. After being confront
ed with the waiter the beat wanted to
pay both checks. ] ordered a police
man summoned. The mans pleading
led me to show him the list of missing
checks, which amounted to something
like $50, saying that | didn't know but
that he was the cause of them all. He
offered to pay the lot if the matter
would be dropped. and this proposition
l accepted. York Sun.

The Old Time Enalish School.

Until comparatively recent times
public school boys in England had
many hardships to endure. AS late as
1884 a writer who spoke from expert
ence said that 1.-THE inmates of a work
house or Jail were better fed and
lodged than the scholars of Elton"
Boys whose parents could not pay for
a private room underwent privations
that might have broken down a cabin
boy and would be thought inhuman if
inflicted on a galley slave.

The Liqht of the Stars.

Various endeavors have been made
to estimate the light Of the stars. In
the northern hemisphere Highlander
has registered $4,000 stars down to
the nine and half magnitude, and
with the aid of the best photometric
data Agnes NJ. Clerks System of the
Stars" gives the sum of the light Of
these northern stars MS equivalent to
LILO of full moonlight. while the total
light of all stars similarly enumerated
in both hemiSpheres. to the number of
about 900,0O0. is roughly placed at
1-1S0 of the lunar brightness. The
scattered light of still fainter celestial
bodies is difficult to compute. By a
Photographic method Sir william Abb
hey rated the total starlight of both
hemispheres at LOO of full moonlight.
and Professor Newcomb from visual
observations of all stars at just 72S
times that of Capella. or i-S9 of the
light of the full moon.
1t is not certain. however. that the
sky would be totally dark If all stars
were blotted out. Certain processes
make the upper atmosphere strongly
luminous at times. and we cannot be
sure that this light would be totally
absent.-Harpers Weekly.

A Dutch FISHING Fleet.

If the traveller wants to get q real
glimpse of picturesque Holland. a
glimpse which shall long be happy
memory, let him journey to the old
fishing village of Scheveningen. not
far from The Hague. Its fishing fleet
is an imposing one and is best seen at
night, when the boats are drawn up on
the beach. Each has a number. and
these are painted on the sides in such
large figures that they can be read
at a considerable distance. At night
when the fishermen begin to come to
land the women of the village walk
down to the beach with their knitting
in their hands to meet them. They
wear their wooden shoes, some of
which are made to look especially
clean by an application of whiting, and
they make a merry clatter as they go.
Industry is characteristic of the wom-
en- of Holland in all walks of life.
They must always be at work of some
kind, and 1t would seem as if more
knitting needles must be used in Hol-
land than in any other country in the
world.-E. J. Harrington in Interior.

HoinburEs, June 16.--A warning to
Inc Christian churches of the world
mat a decisive hour for missions had
come was given in the report of the
commission on Carrying the Gospel to
Al the Non-Christian World, present
"a yesterday to the International Mis-
sionary Conference here. The COM
mission says that opportunities which
nave been neglected in the past are
the reproach of the church. The
cnurch in Christian lands, says the
report, needs energizing that it may
carry on the work. The commission
urged that an International commit
tee be formed, and that a great move
ment to carry Christianity into every
region with increased force be under
taken.
The report was presented by John
Z +. Mott of New York chairman of the
commission. 1t expresses the convic-
ton that the present is the time of all
times for the church to undertake
with quickened loyalty and sufficient
forces to make Christ known to all the
non Christian world"
1T is an opportune time" says the
commission. Never before has the
whole world-field been so open and so
accessible. Never before has the
Christien Church faced such combi-
nation of opportunities among both
primitive and cultured peoples.
1t is testing time for the Church.

CARRYING The GOSPEL TO
IhE NON-CHRISTIAN WORLD

II it neglects to meet successfully the
present world crisis by failing to dis
charge its responsibility to the whole
world, 1t will weaken its power both
on the home and foreign fields and
seriously handicap its mission to the
coming generation. Nothing less than
the adequacy of Christianity as a
world religion is on trial.
"The utter inadequacy of the pres
ent missionary force to discharge eff
fectively the duty of worldwide evan
gelization is evident There should
be nothing less than vast enlarge
ment in the number of qualified work
ers, thorough and courageous adap-
tation of means and methods to meet
the situation, a wise unification in
plans and forces, and a whole-hearted
fulfilling of the conditions of spiritual
power"
Turning its attention to fields on
which the church should concentrate
attention and effort, the commission
reports that in China there is an
unique opportunity fraught with far
reaching issues for the future of
China and of all Christendom. The
advance of Islam in Equatorial Africa
presents the question, the report says,
whether the Dark Continent shall be-
come Mohammedan or Christian. In
dia and the Mohammedan world as a
whole, particularly Turkey and Per-
STA are pointed out as other large
fields for effort.
THE Jewish people," the commits
sioners say, have a peculiar claim
upon the missionary activities of the
Christian Church. Christianity is
theirs prominently by right of in
heritance. The Church is under spe-
cial obligation to present Christ to
the Jew. The attempts to give the
Gospel to this widely scattered, yet
still isolated people have been hither-
to altogether inadequate. The need
is great for change in the attitude
of the Church towards this essential
part of the Great Commission. The
call is urgent in view of the enormous
influence which the Jew is welding in
the world, especially throughout
Christendom. The winning of this
virile race with it's genius for religion
will be the strengthening of the
Church of Christ and the enrichment
of the world"
The church is urged to extend it's
missionary work as soon as possible
to all fields not now occupied, such as
Thibet, Afghanistan, and many other
parts of Asia and of Africa. The va
rious missionary organizations are

NAT GOODWIN TO STICK
TO HIS FOURTH WIFE
Former Comedians Counsel Denies
HumOrs of Marital Troubles.

New York, June G.--Reports cabled
from Paris to the effect that Nat
Goodwin, one time comedian, but OF
late a mining promoter and real estate
operator, and his wife, who was Edna
Goodrich, the actress, had separated
we're strenously denied here by Her
man L. Roth, counsel for Goodwin.
Instead of separating, as the re-
ports state" said Mr. Roth, Goodwin
is to-day a passenger on the steam-
ship Deutchland, hurrying to Paris II
meet Lis wife, who is III. Late last
week his wife sent a ceblegram urging
him to rush to her side. He engaged
passage ON the Deutchland late Fri
day, and although his name was not
on the passenger list, he sailed Satus-
day."
Reports that Goodwin was ffnanci-
ally embarrassed were also denied by
the attorney. Miss Goodrich is Good
wins fourth wife. Maxine Elliott was
the third wife of the former comedian.
She divorced him several years ago.
