1t is asserted that there was
man in Delta last week who wanted
to establish an important enter

The Delta independent., 1911-02-03

Rev. MacD. Thompson, pastor of
the Baptist church in Montrose, and
who had acted as city clerk, was
arrested last Saturday night charged
with shortage of city funds to the
amount of $3,726.09.
The shortage was discovered by
the expert auditing of the city's
accounts recently undertaken and
completed last week.
Rev. Thompson gave bonds In
the sum of $1,000 and was released.
He appeared to be unable to ac-
count for a part of the items In
the list claimed as short, and ap-
pears to be in pretty bad. The in
formation sworn out by Mayor Allen
made the specific charge OF en-
bezzlement.

Just like citizens, investments may
be classed as desirable and undesir-
able. Those that are undesirable
are so few, however, that they stand
a good chance of being overlooked
until experience has spotted them
after they have been once establish
ed. The desirable investment Is
one whose effect is to build up a
town, a market and a community.
The undesirable one is that which
may restrict these advantages.
In the matter of Legislative SER
yants-what would you think OF
man you would employ to do certai
things and they would say: I'VE
will do the work for which you pay
us, or not, just as it happens to
suit u.s." 1t doesn't look just
right to us common people to have
one bunch of legislative laborers
hold the whip over another ana

you have done your stunt" Just

electing a United States Senator.
which should years ago have been
taken away from state legislatures,
makes the present condition possi-
BILE. That and all other legislative
business is deadlocked.
A great screech of triumph goes
up now and then over the state
getting a bunch of some mans
money through it's inheritance tax,
a bit of thievery any state or any
citizen of a state should be heartily
ashamed of. We don't believe the
state of Colorado has any more
right to a part of the money one Of
its citizens happens to make, than
has any man not of kin. When
thousands of dollars were seized
from the estates of Stratton and
Walsh, the Denver newspapers
howled with delight and told in
big headlines how the state was
being enriched through its inner
tance tax. Did the state ever do
anything to help or encourage Win
field S. Stratton or Tom Walsh when
both men were poor prospectors?
Not on your lie! IL placeu naru-
ships in their way-taxed them for
the privilege of digging holes In
the mountains, of bursting rock ba =
riers in an effort to develop mineral
which otherwise might forever have
remained hidden. Then. after
health has been wrecked; hands
calloused with hammer and drill;
nerves shattered and live itself
almost spent In the toll, the one-in-
a-hundred chance gave to those
two men wealth which they en-
joyed just a few brief years. Then
the state wants it, perhaps to add
to it's graft fund. A state should
set an example to it's citizens by
standing upon it's merits, and not
become a grave-rObber.

AN INDIAN E.. THANKSGIVING
PuebIOS of New Mexico Do the
 Rabbit Hunting Dance"

"HE Pueblo Indians of the new
 state of New Mexico have a
 day for thanksgiving and pray
 CT contemporaneous with that of the paleface. Their prayer Is a dance. That is the Pueblo Indian method Of praying to the Great Spirit The prayer dance is held in the lat ter part of November. according to the phase of the moon by which their days are regulated The festival is known as the rabbit hunting dance" Each village has a festival. There is a generous attendance of Pueblos. and whites are admitted as spectators. The villages of Zuni, Acoma and Taos, being remote, are seldom visited by white people on these festivals, but the one at Isleta, few miles from Albuquerque, is more generally at- tended. especially by tourists
 When the chief of the village has of- fcially designated the day the official crfer mounts to the top of the "es- tufa." or place of worship. and an- nounces that the prayer dance of the rabbit hunt will begin at daylight on the stated day. Runners are sent out to notify the Pueblo ranchers.
 The dancers are dressed in white cotton pantaloons and cotton skirts of all colors, and some wear loose cotton gowns reaching to the feet. Grown hats with broad colored bands are most generally worn, yet some wear the paIeface hat. Others are hatless and let their hair hang down over their backs. Each dancer carries a gun. Three or four men are standing at the head of the line. and they are given the signal by striking on a wooden drum. rattling gourds partly filled with pebbles and singing the song of the rabbit hunt, a slow, monotonous chant, ] punctuated with an occasional grunt. When the music starts the line be gins to sway. the men at first moving only their bodies Then they put theii feet in motion. raising each alternately without moving from their position Later they chant the song and thumI the ground with their feet more rap idly and violently, and then they give a yell and trot around the square one following in the others footsteps in time to the song and music. After making the round they break into cir. cles after the manner Of a Quadrille, and the square is filled with parties of dancers. The men forming the circle do not join hands, for they need them in executing the movements with their guns in imitation of the hunt. showing how they will kill the rabbit on the morrow. The circles dance in a direc- tion opposite to the course of the sun that is, from west to east. This cere- mony is repeated several times.
 At first the dance is fast and furious but finally decreases to a mere "hippe- ty-hop' movement and then into the primary movement. The Indians con- tinue their chant and dance as long as strength and breath remain.

 multiplication, division, reduction. vul- gar and decimal fractions, interest simple
 and compound. square and cube root. etc.. with rules for each, which we were required to learn by heart, so that when
 we asked the teacher for help m work ing out an example we would be able to give him the rule.
 Then there was OIney's descriptive geography for older scholars, which gave us a description not only of the United States but of the known countries on the globe. with the names of the differ ent states and their capitals, the char acter of their inhabitants and of their products, and thousand other things regarding them that were interesting to learn and very useful to us. Then we had Smiths English Grammar, which taught us that there were nine parts of speech, namely, noun, pronoun, verb, 8 a1verb, adjeotiyes, participles, preposi- tions, conjunction and interjectory. also the articles, a, an and the that noun was the name of person, place or thing. that it was either proper or com- mon, also that & pronoun was a word used instead of 8 noun, and might be used in the first, second and third per son that verb was a word used to affirm or predicate something and was either transitive, intransitive or neuter. An adverb was a word used to modify a verb, particle, adjective or other adverb; an adjective was a word used with a noun or substantive to express a quality of the thing named; participle was a word that partakes of the nature of an adjective and verb; a proposition vas word governing substantive or pro- nouu ana showing its ,lation to some other word; coniuncti )n was a con- nective or connecting word; an inter jection was a word thrown in bstween other words to express emotion or passion. It also taught us many things regarding these parts of speech and their application, all of which we were re- quired to learn and master, so that we might knom how to apply them. If I have made any mistakes in regard to grammar hope some one will correct me for do not claim proficiency in this study. -- a... ..... 5- -.. ..
 The branches of study I have men, tioned were the principal oaes taught in the common schools wheE was young. although some of the more advanced scholars took up algebra and some other studies but they were usually taken up by scholars that were fortunate enough to have the advantages of select school or an academy where higher branches were taught.

Palisades of the Hudson.

The Palisades are slowly changing. To the traveller of hundred years ago they were a sheer cliff of clean rock rising in a perpendicular line from the waters edge nearly a thou sand feet. Now they are buttressed at the foot by immense deposits Of broken rock which frosts have peeled from the clifr. Gradually this buttress is growing higher. The upward growth of this supporting pile is due to the trees -evergreens of various kinds-which have grown seemingly right out of the rocks.-New York Sun.

GODS COMMANDS FOR THANKS ARE BUT

By Rev. Dr. RUSSELL H. CON- -. WELL of Philadelphia
 GOD commands us to give o thanks. and all his com mands are but directions to do those things which are for our good. His commands are in real ity but loving requests.
 Thanksgiving day is but a re- hinder of the great privileges and of the blessing which all re- ceive who train themselves to give thanks. f.re.. 5.~ It is of far more benefit to the recipient of a Christmas present to be grateful than it is to re- ceive a gift itself. It is very wise to be grateful for last years Christmas presents
 Cultivate habit of mind which will make you grateful to God and to all your friends and ancestors. for with d grateful heart you will appreciate much more and be in every way a better and happier man.
