Durango could at any time go to any

INDIANS IN FLORIDA
Seminole Red Men Have Nation
of Their Own.
Natives Who Refused to Go West 70
Years Ago Are Virtually independ-
ent and Recognize No Law
But Their Own.

Tampa, Fla.-Within the boundaries
of the United States exists an indie
pendent nation that recognizes no de-
partment of our government and has
It's own rulers, laws, customs and Ian
guage. The United States Is as much
a foreign country to 1t as England or
France. This nation. numbering
about five hundred persons, is confined
to the Everglades In the most southern
part OF Florida 1t is all that remafqs
intact OF the Seminole Indians, formerly
one OF the most powerful tribes, numer-
ically in North America. The nation
as at present organized, IL compara-
lively recent. but as relic Of the past,
1t dates back to the pre-Columbian
period.
Just seventy years ago peace
agreement was declared which ended
seven years was between the Semi
noles and the United States govern
ment. The Seminole tribe was made
up of two bands Of Creeks who With

moved to Florida, where they were
Joined by remnants of tribes that had
come in contact with the Spaniards.
They were hostile to the white settlers,
and caused the Americans a great deal
of trouble during the Revolutionary
war They affiliated with the Span
iards in 1898. and again showed their
enmity to the United States In the
War of 1912. few years later tho
Seminoles, together with a large num-
ber of runaway negroes, began ma
King raids and massacres throughout
the frontier settlements OF Georgia
and Alabama. In little less than
year they were completely subdued by
Gen. Andrew Jackson.
The Indians signed treaty in 1923
In which they agreed to give up nearly
all OF their Florida land for a certain
consideration. Some, however. object
ed to these conditions and were al
lowed to remain, with the understand
Ing that they were to live peaceably
and surrender all fugitive slaves
THIS was unsatisfactory to the Geor-
CLANS, who demanded that the Indians
be removed by force. An attempt TO
do this in 1885 precipitated the second
Seminole war, which lasted seven
years and which Is said to have been
the bloodiest Indian war In American
history.

Howard Lost Chance.

Had AL Howard displayed the same
form in the main event that he showed
yesterday in his match with John Britton
In the first round Of the consultations, he
might still have been in the big show
He beat Britton two sets, 90 and 60,
and seemed to have regained his old-time
form, as he never looked better. Britton
sprained his ankle few days ago and
it is still stiff, but it is questionable if
this made much difference In his play.
The closest match in the consultations
was that in which Sam Herrick won
from ]. C.. Howard. The first two sets
called for thirty-six games, Herrick los
ing the opener, 1912, and winning the
next. So. He had no trouble at all in
taking the third and deciding one, 81, as
in the first two sets.
