self-respecting girl angry-the sug-
gestive words of that parchment
skinned, silly-talking Roumanian.
She wouldn't believe, and she knew
very well that she would always re-
main true to Jimmy Hamilton; he of
the dark brown hair and blue eyes
Jimmy Hamilton, who could twist
his love words and phrases to the
daintiest proposals ever bringing the
bushes to the cheeks of maid. She
would not receive any hideous old
millionaire with open arms.
Polly was In a terrible state of
mind when the luckless Jimmy espied
her from across street and fastened
to join her.
"You!" she stamped a foot in the
fine frenzy of her rage. "As il
didn't have trouble enough without
you coming along!"
Jimmy smiled and continued to
plod cheerfully along at her side.
''If had mouthful Of vulgar gold
teeth" contributed the girl spitefully,
I'm sure l would keep it closed and
not be always grinning like a
Cheshire cat! It's what l call an
an ostentatious display Of riches"
Without word of protest Jimmy
obediently pulled his lips to a
straight line.
"Are you dumb?" asked the fair
vixen. Cant you talk? Have you
lost your voice? For gracious sake,
say something! You get on my
nerves."

Polly and the Prophecy
By STANLEY BARTON
Copyright. 1910. by Associated Literary Press

The fortune teller held Polly's little
into her eyes. The fortune teller was
woman, and therefore Polly did not
blush, as she was wont to do under
the admiring stare of men.
Nevertheless, Polly was uneasy.
There seemed to be set grimness
about the tense mouth of this oddly
dressed seer that BODIED i'll for the
dimunitive one before her
you would penetrate the future"
began the fortune, teller "and you
have come to me to find out what is
in store for you. Well, then, young
woman, I will tell you. Listen: An
old man with money is to enter into
your life. The stars tell me that you
will greet him with open arms"
II won't" protested the rebellious
Polly. She had in mind, as she
spoke, the sturdy Jimmy Hamilton,
whom she had refused for the third
time that morning.
1.-THE stars d2 not lie," chided the
fortune teller. "An old man will en-
ter your life, and his impetuosity will
fairly take your breath away. He
will be old, but-he has money"
II won't hear a bit more" came
from Polly angrily, and in a turbu-
lent state of mind she drew her
naughty little self Indignantly out Of
the camp chair and flounced from the
tent.
Polly Edmunds wasn't supersti-
tious, and it was absurd to believe
that she had gone to the fortune
teller except through gentle curiosi-

M|AM|S Chief DEAD
Broken-Hearted Because of Loss
of His Wealth.
Gabriel Godfrey Gave Fortune in Fight
for His PeopIe-First Wife
Granddaughter Of Stolen
"White Rose"

Peru, Ind.-Gabriel Godfrey, last
chief Of the Miamis, died the other
day of a broken heart, because he had
lost all his wealth, $4,000, through
politics. He was urged by his friends
to run for road supervisor, and he
won the Office. though he afterward
declared that he did not want 1t. God
troy and his people were persuaded
to vote Chief Godfrey bitterly re-
pented of this later, for, when his
people exercised that function, they
were called upon to pay taxes, from
which they had been previously ex-
empt, and this started litigation which
continued for years and wiped out
the holdings of the chief, who was the
banker for his people.
Chief Godfrey. "the Last of the
Miamis,' he might be called, was sew
enty-six years old, and was born in
Blacford county, just adjoining the
county in which he lived all his life
and in which he died. His father
was Chief Francis Godfrey, of French
descent, who as warrior was, next
to Little Turtle, the greatest chief of
the Miamis. He ranked close to Te-
cumseh, the Napoleon of the red
race Little Turtle formed a powerful
federation of the Weas, the Shock
neys, the Pankakaws and the Potta-
watomies, which defeated General
Eamer October 10, 1890 and General
ST. Clair November 4, 1871. At the
battle of Tippecanoe, Chief Francis
Godfrey gave the signal for the attack
of the combined Indian forces and
was joint commander with Deaf Man

In the drawn battle of Mississhewa
against Colonel Campbell, the last
battle Of the Miamis
At the treaty of St. Mary's, God
troy was granted six sections of land
on the north bank of the Wabash, en-
bracing nearly all the present site of
the city of Peru. This ancestral es-
tate, 1t might be called, dwindled un-
til at the death Of the son. Gabriel,
only about forty acres of the original
tract remained, and this was in the
possession of Gabriers children, to
whom he had decided it a few years
ago.
When his father died, in house
which is part of the present home of
the Godfrey family, and was buried
just across the road, Gabriel became
chief. He was married three times.
His first wife was granddaughter Of
Frances Slocum, who was stolen by
the Indians when she was six years
old.
Frances Slocum was stolen in 1776
from her home near Wilkesbarre, Pa,
by the Delaware Indians. She was
passed to the Miamis and became
known as the white Rose Of the MI
amis." Her brothers never gave up
the search for her. Finally, in 1897,
she was located in Miami county as
member Of the Indian tribe, and her
brothers journeyed from Pennsylvania
to take her home. When the object
Of their visit was explained, she said
she had lived so long among the In
dams, and they had treated her so
we'll, that she would not desert them.
Her brothers went home broken
hearted. Godfroy's third wife is still
living.
Twenty years ago Chief Godfrey
had fine farm of about a hundred
acres and was worth about $4,000.
He was called on scores Of times to
pay fines against Indians For seven
years he paid the expense and stood
the worry of legal battle which the
county commissioners brought to com.
pei him and others of his tribe to nav
taxes on their lands. They claimed
the lands to be exempt because of the
treaties by which they were decided
to them by the government. When
his fortune had disappeared the suit
was compromised, and his people
should be exempt for ten years.
When this decision was announced.
Chief Godfrey advanced to the bench
and. in voice trembling with emo
ton, told his story Of wrongs. The

ated by the cruel pale face;" how

DIRECT PRIMARY 0|LL
PASSED BY LEGISLATURE
Democratic Pledges Redeemed Despite Re-
publican Obstacles--Party Will Sweep State
Republicans Voted Against Bill.
Sentinel Special Service.

Denver Oct. 14-Both houses of
the Legislature passed the amended
direct primary bill this morning by
a strict party vote. In the senate the
vote stood 20 to 6, and in the house
55 to ), democrats voting for it and
all the republicans against it.
The bill contains the modified con-
vention feature, which was adopted
by the conference committee after
prolonged debate.
With the passing of the direct pri-
mary bill, the initiative and referen-
dunn and the expected passage of the
registration bill tomorrow. the ex-
ira session will have practically full
filled the platform pledges of the
democratic party of Colorado.
1t is significant that the vote on
the direct primary measure was along
party lines strictly. The talk put
up by some of the republicans that
they would support the bill If it con-
tanned a convention provision proves
to have been lacking in sincerity
since they opposed the measure to a
man when it came to a decisive vote.
The democratic party can now go
before the people with the assurance
that comes from knowledge of a
duty performed even though the re-
puhlicans threatened to shipwreck
every attempt to redeem the demo-
cratic pledges.
Governor Shafroth will approve
the bill in all probability when it is
presented to him tomorrow.
The registration bill will come up
this afternoon at 3 O'Clock on the re-
port of the conference committee and
will be passed in all probability.
There is every indication that the
extra session will adjourn sine die
tomorrow afternoon or evening.
