Tazewell Republican. [volume] (Tazewell, Va.) 1892-1919, 1912-01-11

The trouble with many a small city is
that it provides no suitable place for
men and boys to spend an hour or two
of an evening in. However attractive
home may be and however great ones
attachment to it there is q natural de-
sire for its members to want to be away
from it occasionally that they may min
gle with other people. Especially is
this true of boys and men, but in the
majority of small cities there is no suit
able place where they can go. There is
the street, to be sure, but that is no fit
place The business man doesn't want
people lettering in his store and as there
Is no warm, cheerful room to be found
small wonder is it that many find their
way to the saloon and other similar
places. Temperance reformers, and all
who desire the social and moral welfare
of young people should in every place
provide pleasant, accessible rooms free
to all where people may drop in for
social hour, for games and for reading.
To properly institute, equip and manage
such place costs money, it is true, but
it pays, and especially in the character
building it promotes.

Persistent Adyertisjsg,

1t is essential to the welfare of any
business that it be persistentiy adver-
tised. And especially is this true of the
safe daposit business. The advertiser
VINO loses his patience will lose out.
The masses who read advertisements
move slowly. One dignifed card will
never attract the attention or produce
the inquiries that a series of strongly
worded talks will stir up. But it is es-
sential that each ad of the series be
complete that the reader may have
something to grasp and act upon. The

are like pie crust-easily broken. But
that usually is because the promise is
made inexclusively or that it is well

them are of great benefit.

The Brigands of the City.
From the Chicago Journal.

FrOm tue SHlCdSo Jooihai-
The great cities Of today are breeding
a race of savages more dangerous thar
those who used to haunt the forests OF
roam the plains.
They are breeding criminals who seem
destitute alike of fear and OF mercy
criminals who practice to the full the
grim maxim of dead men tell no tales
criminals who are familiar with every de-
vice of modern civilization, and use THESE
devices to defeat civilization.
Paris has furnished the latest example
of the work of such criminals in the SEN
sational exploits and wild finish of the
famed auto bandits. But Paris is not
alone.
London, dear. mild old London, bred the
bandits who were killed at Houndsditch
sational as that which marked the end OF
the motor brigands of Paris.
The Apaches of New York score more
murders each year than do the Apaches
of Paris Chicago still remembers the
carbarn murderers. The solitary killer
of Berlin left a trail of blood across the
most regulated city in the world. Every
The problem is not what to do with
these bandits after they have developed.
Nothing can be done with them. They are
as untamable as an elephant gone
"musth" or a panther with hydrophobia.
Punishment has no terrors for them The
majority of them die fighting. If by
chance captured and brought to trial,
they face their own death as indlnerently
as they looked on the deaths of others.
The problem is to keep from breeding
brigands It is problem which all the
science all the philanthropy, all the law.
and all the power of modern civilization
has not even begun to solve.

FEAT OF AN INDIAN HERO.
Swan the Icy Columbia With Child
on His Back.
From the Oregon journal.

From the Oregon Journal.
To swim the Columbia river at Una
tilla, where it is half a mile in width, i.
a test of human strength even under the
most favorable conditions, but to accom-
pl.sh that feat burdened with the weigh
of child and in the dead of winter with
the swollen river made more formidable
by the presence of hundreds of jagged Ice
foes is an achievement almost unbeliey.
able
Yet this is just what was done about
eight years ago by a Columbia river
Indian who had almost reached the age
of fifty. He is still living today on the
Umatilla reservation to testify to his per
Torrance, though no man ever heard hin
boast of it.
The Indians name is Sees-Yuse and HI
is now the head man Of the scattered Co
lumbias. 1t was in the early years O,
the new century that he attempted t,
make the passage of the Columbia in q
frail canoe accompanied By boy Of nine
years. When in midstream his little Graf
was struck with such force by an ice cake
that it was overturned. Sees-Yuse seizeG
his boy companion, and, placing him or
his back. breasted the stream and com
menced his battle to gain the shore
If men who witnessed the feat are tC
be believed, no white man could have &C
complished what this old Indian did Foo
southern bank, and. though swept down
stream by the swift current, his progress
was steady.
Several times he was struck by an ice
foe and the jagged end of one cut q deer
wound in his neck. Finally, after what
seemed an almost interminable time, he
reached the shore with his burden, his
strength spent by his heroic efforts and
loss of blood, and almost frozen by the
chill water Before the flow from his
wound could be checked he had almost
bled to death.
Not long after the incident Sees-Yuse
was awarded some heirship lands on the
Umatilla reservation and since that time
has lived among the Umatillas, Cayuses
and Walla Wallas, but through the death
of the chieftains of his own tribe he has
come to be regarded by his people as
their head man.
The old Indian, whose facial character.
ist.cs are so different from those of the
prairie Indians, is a frequent visitor In
Pendleton. Ore. and almost regularly
once a week calls upon his friend Mai
Lee Moorhouse. not, however, so much
for the purpose of talking with the major
as to gaze at a full-length painting OF
himself which adorns the walls of the
Moorhouse office The painting was made
from a photograph of Sees-Yuse taken
by the major. and the aged red man
often SITS by the hour, childlike, admirins
the likeness on the wall.
