THOSE AMENDMENTS.

Next month the citizens of Texas

the state legislature. Some people
who believe that the legislature is
composed of the wisest men in the
state will vote to do so. But a wide
and varied acquaintance with the leg.
islative body has convinced us that
there are a few capable, intelligent
men in that body while the bulk is
composed OF men of very ordinary
and, In many cases, very limited abil.

composed of the brains of the state,
there are features of the proposed con.

But the real "nigger in the wood

After the fast Of Lent medieval GUS

lecithin is favorite drug with doctors

Forced to fee from their home in
sub-zero weather, Mr.. and Mrs. p.
w. Rathbun, oil Dewey avenue,
were driven put by flames Saturday
night. Neither had time to dress,
much less take anything from the
house, and their personal property is
practically a total loss. Mrs. Rath-
bun escaped in an overcoat and slip
pers over her night robes.
The fire broke out about midnight
but as Mr.: and Mrs. Rathbun had re-
tired they knew of nothing until
awakened by a crash in the Kitchen.
Mr.. Rathbun went to investigate at
once and found the kitchen on fire
with flames shooting through a hole
in the roof from which a pipe drum
had dropped. He at once called the
fire department while his wife was
getting out Of the house.
When the wagon arrived, the fire.;
men found that the hydrant was
frozen and valuable time was con-
sumed while the hose was shifted to
a second hydrant. In the meantime
chemicals had been used but by the.
time the fire. vas out the interior had.
been Quilted. Mr.. Rathbun believes
that the drum set fire to he roof
which burned away and let the drum
into the kitchen, the crash awakening
him.
Mr., and Mrs. Rathbun were mar
ried in June, Mrs. Rathbun, being
Miss Hattie Shocks, and have made.
their, home In BemidJ1. They lost
practically all of their wedding gifts
and estimate the loss at $1,400 with
insurance of $500.

boys have a debt of $25 which they
wish to pay and have taken this

good crowd is assured. A game will

Minneapolis, Jan. 20.-Again the
interest OF automobile owners and

intact from show to show and in this
way visitors at the Minneapolis show
the week Of Feb. 8 will witness a dis
play which will rank on a par in

who has been responsible for nearly
all the shows in the Northwest for
the past five or six years, has planned
elaborate decorations for the armory
and annex during this first national
exhibition to be held in Minneapolis.
The enlarged building will permit Of
greater effort in decorations than
ever before and the result will pro-
claim broadcast the fact that Mime
apolis is deserving Of and apprecia-
tive Of, the honor Of being on the

Many of the leading lights of the
motor car industry will be In at
tendance at this Minneapolis show.

Those Of the 0bjibways Taken at Red
Lake While South Piegans Are
In Montana.
ARE THE BEST IN THE WORLD
Have Been Pronounced So By Experts
Who Have Seen Them
Going to Chicago.

BemidH people who knew r. w.
Reed when he was a resident Of this
city and those who have come here
since he left but who have heard of
his Indian scenes will have an oppor-
tunity this week to see his famous
collection. Mr.. Reed has over forty
pictures with him and will exhibit
them in the Crippen studio, when he
owned while here, on Tuesday after
moor and all day Wednesday,. He is
on his way to Chicago where he will
exhibit before an art society.
Mr.. Reed left Bemid5i four years
ago to locate in Kalispel, Montana.
While here he made the Ojibways, or
Chippewas, his special study and the
Red Lake reservation furnished MIN
with both characters and scenery. In
Kalispel he was able to get in touch
with the South Piegans who now in
habit the Blackfoot reservation. The
North Piegans live in Canada. On this
trip Mr.~Reed Is after two more Ojib-
way scenes at Red Lake. He expects
to finish the Piegans within a year
and will then move to Los Angeles
where he will make his headquarters
while studing the Indians of the
Southwest.
the Reed Indian pictures have been
pronounced the best in the world. Be-
coming interested in the Indians
while operating a studio in Bemidji,
he conceived the plan of putting their
life in print by mean of the camera
and started his famous collection. He
went to the Red Lake agency for
pictures Of the Ojibways, as the led
Lake Indians are representatives of
all Of the Indians in this part of the
country. He took them hunting,
fishing, moving, talking to the medi-
cine man, took their love scenes, and
pictures of the first sail on Red Lake
and the Coming of. the White Man"
So successful was he that he de-
cided to go to Montana to study the
Indians there and he located in Kali
spell. He has some crews of
Indians In the Glacier National Park
which are probably the only ones Of
their kind which will ever be taken.
1t has been said of Mr.. Reed that he
combines the skill of the artist with
the mechanical perfection Of an ex-
pert photographer and the pictures
he has with him fully verify the
statement. Mr.. Reed went to Red
Lake this morning but will return
and put his pictures On exhibition
here Tuesday afternoon.
Mr.. Reed must have two more Ojib-
way pictures before his collection is
complete and it is for these that he
will return to Red Lake Tuesday. One
picture that he wants will be a win
ter scene showing a old wigwam with
a gaunt Indian dog knawing a bone
in front of it. The, only person in
the setting will be an old squaw, in
tattered clothes and bent, carrying a
bundle Of fagots on her back with
