"ME HEAP BIG BLACKFEET IN

WhaCCney most need now, and prop
er guidance will be great factor in
adjusting them to such a complete
change IN their mode of living" Mr..
Hill soliloquized. And straightway y
he secured United States Govern
ment'r approval to have the most
promising progressives of the Black
feet tribe selected to 60 to ihe New
York Land Show, that they might
see for themselves what agriculture
really means. What impressions the
redmen will carry back to their prai-
rie homes is a matter of much antic-
ipation to the son of the great rail
way builder, who hit upon this ave-

The last great grass dance of this
picturesque people was a ceremony
not soon to be forgotten by the few
white people who were fortunate
enough to he present. The weird
ceremonies were participated in by
5000 redskins. Many of them are
land wealthy and all are regarded as
an Industrious people. The grass
dance is of a religious nature. The
Indians think it calls the attention of
the gods to the fact that the tribe de.
sires good season, with plenty of
grass for their horses. In the old
days the welfare of the buffalo was
the central idea of this prayerful re-
]igious ceremony, for if there wasn't
plenty Of grass the large herds of
bison wouldn t come into this country.
And a scarcity Of buffaloes meant
hunger to the Indians, no clothing.
lack of skins with which to make
tepees, beds and many other things
which the redmen had to have. So,
there was some sense to this trodding
of the grass in their appeal to the
gods. the Indians thought.
But the buffalo is gone and these
grass dancers are following fast up
on the same trail to the happy hunt
ing grounds.
When the yellow, sun-burned plains
Of the klackfeet reservation are
turned over by the plow and seed is
planted, there probably will be small
groups of grass dancers here and
there, while the Indians wait for their
grain to come forth.

The Blackfeet are the highest type
of Indian. Their integrity. fortitude,
and admirable dignity place
them on a pedestal above all other
tribes of sayages. The Blackfoot is
a frank, simple being, yet he is un-
usually cunning when the occasion
demands. His sense Of humor is keen
and of the hard, impressive kind.
Some OF his customs are extremely

''From experience we find that we get

PHoENIX, ARIZONA
 Ger. 9TH, 1911. HONORABLE w. A. O'CoNNoR,
 District Attorney, Nogales, Ari- z0na.
 My dear O'Connor: 1 am in receipt of an eleven page pamphlet written by Captain Stephen O'Con- nor, in which he pays his respects to the people of Santa Cruz Coun- ty as well as to myself. Doubtless he has flooded Santa Cruz County with this pamphlet in which he says that he gave bond in the sum of one thousand dollars, not to re- turn to said County for the period of one year.
 My object in writing you is to explain that he is under a thousand dollar bond not to return to Santa Cruz County; said bond remaining in effect until he has been dis charged by the Superintendent of the Territorial Asylum for the Insane.
 In case he should return to your County, you will understand the situation.
 All that is necessary is 10 place him under arrest and return him to the Institution. Such expense as is incurred, will necessarily be paid by the bondsmen.
 It is almost needless for me to add that so long as am superin. tendent of the Asylum, 1 will never discharge or release him or release in any way, his bondsmen.
 Very Respectfully,
 H. K. BEAUcHAMP, NJ. D.
 Superintendent.

GRAND FORKS CONTEST.

Late yesterday the manager of the
Fargo high school five scheduled a
game with the jamestown quint and
the two teams will meet Saturday aft
ernoon on the local "Y" floor at AIS.
Little is known of the visitors ability
this year, although last season they
succeeded in breaking even with the
Fargo five in the two games played.
The midgets had expected to go to
Wahpeton Saturday afternoon to meet
the down state high school. However,
this game was cancelled yesterday and
for time the. Fargo five was left
without any game.
Wahpeton will take Fargo on Satur-
day, Feb. Is, and on Feb. % the locals
go to Grand Forks where they will
meet the supposed to- be fastest team
in the state. A return game will be
played March 4, and the scores of the
two games will be added, the team
having the largest number of points
will of course be the champion aggre-
cation.
After Fargo plays her games with
Grand Forks she will play the other
teams of the southern part of he state

A. C. Will Win

What Captain Darrow Of the A. G.
team thinks:
considering the condition of the
team at present / think the chances
for winning are pretty evenly divided
between the two teams and IL our
fellows do not Improve greatly be-
fore the game we will have to hurry
to win. Fargo college has a good
team but if our fellows round into
condition / think we will win. This
is the big game of the season and we
are going into it with a do or die
spirit to land a victory.
Il am well satisfied with the officials
and / tink Mr.. Wolf as referee and
Mr.. Critchfield as umpire is the best
combination that could be secured to
officiate the big game"
Manager Wheeler of the Aggies
talks: Eyes, we are in a poor and
crippled condition to go into such an
important game as the one Saturday
night. But our raw material is fast
rounding in to shape so that they
will be able to fill the places that
have been crippled.
Fargo college has one of the fast
est college teams that have seen this
year, comparing them to the teams
we have met on the trip to South Da-
kota, and l think the game Saturday
will be anybody's game until the final
whistle is blown"

HOLzER TO PLAY
SAYS HAGGART

AS Acting Captain Haggart sees the
situation:
1--WE are pretty badly crippled, very
unfortunately So However, we are
going into the game to win and will
not leave an iota in the way which
can give us fair and square vic
tory over the Aggies.
yes, Holzer will be in the game, /
am glad to say. We have looked up all
relations existing between the two
schools, and so far, there has been
nothing found that should keep him
out of the contest. He is eligible
from every standpoint, even though
he has just entered our institution.
He matriculated at the first of our
semester, which makes him perfectly
conditional to try for the varsity.
"Holzer will be seen at one of the
defense positions. He is both clever
player as an advance man, or a guard
but in our present dilemma the coach
thought it advisable to play him in
the rear. The new addition to our
quintet will probably take Thayer's
place. Thayer will be moved to CEN
ter and will endeavor to hold down
the pivot position.
Our game will be a persistent one
for victory from start to finish"

catcher in the league the coming year,

perience, but / have never seen a fell

Certainly he couldn't at throwing or

could at hitting either. Why, that fell

out, but when it comes to the day of
the mill the men slam away at each
other in the same old way.
AS a matter of fact, there have been
few, if any, new blows sprung on the
public since Kid Nc Coy's corkscrew or
Jim Corbett's hook. All of the other
.so-called blows said to be of more
recent discovery have proved to be
nothing more or less than the old wal
lops under different names.
Some of the old timers even claim
that the hook was not new when Jim
Corbett launched it in his battle with
John L. Sullivan. They say Jack
Dempsey used the same blow in nearly
all of his fights half dozen years pre-
vious to the Jacksonville mill.
Corbett figured out this blow while

hooking the forearm as he let fly with
the left from the shoulder.
This motion caused the blow to twist
around the other fellows parry and
gave it the same effect as a right
swing to the point of the Jaw.
Corbett landed this blow on Sullivan
repeatedly and got away without a re-
turn. Every time he started the blow
John would prepare to stop a straight

with marvellous accuracy each time.
Occasionally as the fight progressed
Corbett used the left straight, and by
mixing them up in this manner he had
John guessing all the time.
Another thing that Corbett invented
was the perpendicular guard. Previous
to this time the fighters used hori-
zontal parry and it was not difficult
for swift opponent to get over it.
The old timers evaded swings for the
jaw by either ducking or stepping back.
