He is typical Sioux, rather short

the edges though he locks much
younger than he is. He speaks with
a decided Indian accent.
In his St. Paul lecture he said of
the Indian:
There could have been no Hud-
Bay company had it not been for
him. His honesty was absolute and
unfailing. Strange thing abo 1t civil

Hearing Wednesday
Three people were badly injured
and several slightly hurt when an
automobile driven by Frrnk Lang
dashed into the Springfield band
last Friday evening.
The accident occurred just outside
of Springfield a little past eight
o'clock. The car came from behind
the marchcrs and passed the entire
length of the band before it was
brought to stop. Five people who
were pinned under the car were with
difficulty removed. These five were
the worst sufferers and of these the
three most seriously injured were:
NAMES OF THE INJURED
Henry Heuman, director, leg bro
ken, back wrenched.
Armine Schmidt, aged II. injured
internally.
VERNE Swanbeck, aged IL, shout
or lshed and arm broken.
Slightly injured:
AunoLehne, head cut.
Schumacher, head cut.
DR.. J. S. Schrader cared for the
injured and had them taken home in
automobiles. None was kept at
the hospital.
LANG'S HEARING WEDNESDAY
On Saturday Lang. who is liquor
dealer Of Springfield, was placed
under arrest but Immediately re-
leased on 81 900 bail. His prelimin-
airy hearing was set for Wednesday
at 10 o'clock.
VERNE Swanbeck probably is the
most seriously hurt. His shoulder
is so badly crushed that the attend
ant physician sayshe may be Grip
pied for life. The extent of Armine
Schmidt's injuries cannot be ascer-
tanned for day or two as he was
hurt internally. When the car stop
ped the rear wheel rested on his
body
BAND MARCHING ON ROAD
The band was marching to Hayes
Cady's farm, half mile out Of
town. Lang, driving upon the band
from behind. did not see the musi-
clans until he was too close to stop.
Statements as to the speed at which
he was travelling differ, but the fact
that the car ran the entire length of
the band before stopping would in
dictate, some speed.
He was accompanied by two young
ladies and the three lent all the as
sistance possible to the injured. In
spite of this bitter feeling devel-
oped against Lang and there was
talk of rough usage.
LANG IN FORMER ACCIDENT
He has made overtures of settle
ment but it is said the case will be
pushed. His car, five passenger
Overland. was slightly damaged. the
lights being broken and fender bent.
This is the second automobile ac-
cident in which Lang has figured
within month. In the other a
young woman who was riding with
him was thrown out when the car
struck a rock. She was rendered
conscious and remained so for two
| or three hours.

ton of the nation, for liberty. for
the enfranchisement of mankind.
Truth triumphed. The nation was
saved; the shackles were struck from
the limbs of the slaves.
Victory did not come until the
flower Of the North and the South
had given up its life on terrible bat
tie fields or had crept home ounded
and manned to toll on through the
years.
The story of that conflict has been

DIR. Eastman, Who Lectures al
Christian Church Wednes-
day, Has a Thrilling
Experience.

81 remember the morning of the
outbreak, the boom Of the guns, the
hurrying Of the women. the coming
in of the wounded, the crying fright
of the children" said DR.. Charles
Eastman, Sioux Indian, talking to
The Redwood Gazette.
DR.. Eastman is to lecture on "The
Last Stand of the Sioux" at the
Christian church on Wednesday even
ing. Last Saturday he told The Ga
zette few of his early experiences.
'Just below Redwood Falls, near
the old mills, is the spot where |
was born" he said. my father and
mother had come down to Redwood
river on hunting trip and while
there / was born. 1t was in 1899 or
1900 that l succeeded in locating
practically the exact spot upon which
stood the tepee in 1858.
FATHER IN WOOD LAKE FIGHT
'.That was four years before the
outbreak. My father went with the
men and in the fight at Woodlake he
was shot in the knee and was unable
to walk until an Indian doctor re-
moved the ball some time afterwards.
Later he was taken prisoner and
we supposed he had been shot or
hanged. My mother died and the
family, there were four boys, was
broken up. An uncle of mine went
out on the border and to avenge the
death of my father. whom he sup
posed had been shot, he attacked the
whites who travelled the trail.
In the end it developed that my
father had not been killed but had
been sent to Davenport as prisoner.
When he was released he came back.

a progressive, he left the reserva-

STUDIED AT HARVARD

Harvard and later practiced his pro-
fession among the Indians on the
reservation. With the appearance
of his memoirs" came fame and he
no longer practices medicine. Presi-

SUPT. HERMANN
DEFENDS WORK
Head of Schools Says Patriot
ism is Taught and Upper
Grades are Patriotic.
CONDITIONS ARE CRITICISED
Member of Woman's Relief
Corps Found Spirit of In
difference Among Pupils.

Patriotism is dying out of the
school of Redwood Falls. is the
statement made by Mrs. Fuller be-
fore the members of the John S.
Marsh, w. R. C. at its meeting in
G. A. R. Hall last week.
Superintendent of Schools, Will
liam Hermann, does not agree with
this statement. ''The principles of
patriotism" lie says, care being
taught. Respect for the nation, it's
history and its institutions, is part
of the work of each day. 1t would
be impossible for one to take our
course in history and literature and
not receive lasting and distinct
impression of this country, the mag
nitude of its achievements and the
heroic spirit that animated the men
who fought for its preservation.
JOHNSON EXERCISES ANEXAMPLE
There could be no more striking
example of the patriotic feeling of
the students in the high school and
upper grades than the part which
they took in the John A. Johnson
memorial service. 1t was the upper
grade pupils who participated most
largely in those exercises and they
did it because of the respect they
had for Governor johnson and their
pride in the state and nation.
THE pupils in the high school and
the upper grades know of memorial
day and its significance, they know
of the great war and what it cost in
human lives and they sincerely honor
the memory of the men who died
and admire the survivors of that
great conflict
PATRIOTISM ON THE EBB.
Mrs. Fuller told the corps that
she found patriotism rampant in the
lower grades but didn't find it ell
bowling the other interests in the
eighth grade and high school. She
said the higher the grade the less in
terest was manifested and she
feared for the future. She asked:
when the corps and the post are
no more will these memory days be
a thing of the past?'
Mrs. Fuller thinks some thing must
be wrong either with home or school
instruction.
Her criticism was called forth by
the failure to interest the pupils of
the high school in the program for
Memorial day in connection with
which it was suggested that the
school children march to the GENE
terry.

One thing looks funny to. me and
that is that there are so many dust ex-

requiring dry mines to be sprinkled at
regular intervals to keep the dust

of the mine laws of Tennessee are en-
forced at any mine so far as am able
to find, and if the mines we're kept in
a condition half as good as the law re-
quires there would never be another
mine explosion in Tennessee. Why
are the laws not enforeed1 Because
this would add expense to the opera
