ago, has returned TO the land

civilization that ne has ever attained
The great government school for In
dians at Carlisle, in the rich agricui-
tural belt of Pennsylvania, is the cen
ter of a new Indian civilization whose
influence is being felt in several OF
the Eastern states and on the reser-
ration in the West. In the early his
tory of this country the spot on which
Carlisle stands was frontier military
post. There Benjamin Franklin made
2 treaty with the Indian tribes in
s. 1853. In later years tho Redskins
were driven back across the rapidly
extending frontier. and as war and dis
ease thinned their ranks, they with
drew u the lands reserved for them
in the far West.
But now the Indian has come back
to Pennsylvania under the care and
protection of the government that
drove him away from his rich hunt
ing grounds. Carlisle. the largest and

its victories on the gridiron. Mention
