INDIAN GIRLS RISE
She's Now a Claim Adiuster at
Washington.
Unique Life History of Mrs. mary
l.. Baldwin, the Granddaughter
of a Prominent Chip
pewa Chief.

Washington.-Fro a life or naru-
ship and danger among the indian
tribes of South Dakota to the position
of adjuster of claims In the Office OIL
Indian affairs of the department OF,
the interior is the unique life history
| Of Mrs. Mary l.. Baldwin, granddaugh-
| ter of a chief of the Chippewa IN
| dams, and relative of many or the la7
nous Indian warriors of the west.
Until she was fourteen years OF age
Mrs Baldwin slept only in an ln"!an
tepee or in the open air. Now she al
justs claims between members or her
race and the United States govern
ment.
Many times when she was a girl
she saw members Of her family shot
and scalped, and one of her most VlVlo
memories is of seeing her own Droth-
er tortured and slowly cut TO pieces
before her eyes. From the shelter OF
sand pits she, in company with other
women and girls of her tribe, often
watched their braves fight Indians or
other tribes and soldiers of the United
States.
Among her relatives and other mem
bers of the Turtle mountain band OF
the Chippewas Mrs. Baldwin used TO
be known for her fearless disregard
of danger and her wonderful activity
In riding horses and shooting WHO
game. She still shoots, both with the
rifle and bow and arrow, and rides
whenever possible. Often, when she
lived with her people, she went hunt
Ing alone, and seldom failed to return
with her hunting bag filled with game,
In 1864 Mrs. Baldwin was living
with her father, John Bottineu, at st.
Joseph, N. D., then a small trading
post. At that time the Chippewas and
the Sioux were at war. One day a
party of seven Sioux came to the post
They were warned to leave at once
by Botineu, but insisted on staying
until blizzard which was raging

PRESIDENT CALLS
EXTRA SESSION

Congress on April q to Act on
Reciprocity.

Washington.-Nine minutes AFTER
the Sixty-first congress ended Satur-
day President Taft called the Sixty
second to meet in extraordinary ses-
sion on April 4.
The proclamation states the pur-
pose of calling the extra session Is 10
get action on reciprocity. 1t calls at
tention to the fact that the mousse
passed the Mccall bill, but that the
senate had done nothing. In support
of his demand, the president cites
the fact that the agreement with can
ada forces him to do all in his power
to get legislation carrying out that
agreement enacted.
1t was at the request of the Demo
Gratis that President Taft fixed the
date of the extra session on April 4.
Just before the closing hour OF the
Sixty-first congress Senator Bailey
telegraphed his resignation to Cover
nor Colquitt of Texas. The imme-
date cause of his action was disgust
over the attitude of his Democratic
colleagues in voicing support or the
initiative, referendum and recall by
voting to accept the constitution OF
the prospective state Of Arizona.
Subsequently he withdrew his resig-
nation

ROOSEVELT STARTS
ON LONG TRIP
viii Participate In Many Important
Events During the Next Two
Months.

New York. Former President
Roosevelt left Wednesday on a two
months tour Of the south and south
west. A $4,000 dinner, a reunion of
the Rough Riders, day spent in pre-
siding over ceremonies to be held in
the town of Roosevelt, Ariz., to mark
the opening of the Roosevelt dam, one
of the greatest engineering feats In
the west, and long hunting and fish
ing trips in and about the Rockies are
some of the things which will enliyen
the peregrinations of the former pres
ident.
In Birmingham, he will address a
Child Labor commission. New Or
leans will entertain the ex-Rough-Ri-
der with $4,000 banquet given un-
der the auspices Of the Commercial
Club of Louisiana. The annual con-
ventiOn of "Catt1e Raisers," one of
the most powerful organizations in
the state Of Texas, will then be ad-
dressed by the Colonel at San An
tonic. The next stop in the initiner-
airy will be Albuquerque, n. M, where
the ex-Rough Rider will spend two
days among his old friends of the
saddle. From there he goes to Grand
Canyon, Ariz., where a short address
will be delivered. Then on to Phoe-
nix for the opening of the Roosevelt
dam.
In Los Angeles, Colonel Roosevelt
will speak at the invitation of Gov
ernOr Johnson of that state.
San Francisco, the termination of
his trans-continental trip will receive
some ten days of his time. Here he
will divide his time between the Uni
versity Of California, at Berkeley,
lures, six in number, and his head
quarters in the city where he will re-
ceive visitors from the Pacific slope.
No definite arrangements, other
than a personal promise to be pres
ent at the opening of the new Y. M.
G. A. building at Reno, have been
made, though it is probable that he
will visit friends in Oregon and Ne
vada for an intermediate period, aft
er which he will visit Seattle and
Spokane. No speeches to be delivered
in those states are yet announced; nor
is the length of his stay. At the con-
clusion Of his visit he will probably
go to some place in Idaho, thence to
Sand Point, Mont, and home through
the north and middle west.

HUGHES MAY HEAD POSTAL BODY
Suggested for Commission to InVesti-
gate Magazine Rates.

Washington, D. Cit is expect
ed that President Taft in a short time
will announce the personnel of the
commission provided for by the post
office appropriation law for the consid-
Grafton of the proposed increase in
the rate on second-class postal mat
ter. While no definite conclusions as
to the personnel of the body yet have
been reached, it is suggested, because
the act provides that one of the mem
bers shall be judicial officer of the
United States, as not unlikely that
Justice Hughes of the United States
Supreme court may be the head of the
commission.
