AIMED AT THE NUNS
Teachers of Indians Forbidden TO
Wear Religious Insignia.

Washington Feb 2-In sweeping
order aimed directly at the nuns OF tho
Roman Catholic church, Commissioner
of Indian Affairs Robert G. valentine
has issued an edict prohibiting teach
ers in Indian schools from wearing re-
ngious or any other kind of insignia OF
garb while in performance of their OF
fetal duties as instructors OF 1nalaa
children.
MANY representatives of the Catholic
church are thoroughly aroused over
the order and propose TO carry the mat
ter to President Taft Immediately on
his return to Washington
The order was issued privately from
Commissioner Valentines office instead
OF from the office of Indian Affairs and
Is prefaced with the statement that
there must he no connection between
any church and the state
Valentines order refers to the guar
anteed religious freedom under the con-
stitution and concludes by notifying all
persons engaged in teaching Indians at
government schools that IF they feel
snch garb and insignia cannot be given
up they must seek employment else
where"
1t is charged by the representatives
of the church that the order was issued
by the commissioner of Indian affairs
at the instance of protestant mission
aries in retaliation for the religious
teaching regulations for Indian child
rem issued March TO- 1910. in response
to a complaint by the Catholics that
protestant teachers We're prOselytizing
among the Indian children of the Cath
Ole faith. AS a result of the regula-
tions then issued the alleged prose-
1ytizing among Catholic Indian children
has been practically stopped.
The order will directly affect sisters
of the Benedictine FRANCISCAN and the
St. Joseph orders stationed at the
Devils Lake school, North Dakota, the
Fort Yates school. North Dakota. the
FL Bow Woods school. North Dakota
the James school. New Mexico. the Tue
son school, Arizona and two small
schools in Wisconsin. involving between

SEES HIS SHADOW.
Grounding Day Indicates Continual
ton of Winter.

The grounding saw his shadow and
crawled back into his hole today for
another six Weeks-that is if one can
rely upon the old saying. The wealth
er man in Chicago who makes the
forecasts evidently didn't get wind of
the sunshine in Kansas. or else is not
a believer in the old tradition that if
the grounding sees his shadow on
grounding day there will be six weeks
more of cold weather, for the guess
that he made is for warmer condi-
lions.
The forecast: Unsettled weather
tonight with higher temperatures in
the eastern portion of the state; Satur-
day fair"
Shippers forecast: Protect 26 hour
shipments north against a temperature
of 10 degrees; east against - de-
grees: west, 20 degrees; south, 25 de-
grees."
A cold wave was scheduled for Sat
urday and Sunday, but it has not been
heard from and it is possible that it
has been sidetracked.
