Battle Ground, Ind.-Guy Fisher. a
farmer boy living near Battle Ground,
Ind. stumbled on to a strange find a
few days ago near the mouth Of
the Tippecanoe river that may be of
considerable historic interest. Many
small mounds of earth are 10 be seen
in the neighborhood which is named
for the battle OF Tippecanoe between
Gen. Harrison and Tecumseh's war
riors. Some OF these have been open
ed from time to time. and relics Of
tbs red men have been found in them.
but the latest is considered one of the
most important yet unearthed in that
district.
Recent high water from the Tippe-
canoe and Wabash rivers and Wild
Cat creek inundated the entire coun-
tryside. Young Fisher was going
over the territory contiguous to the
Joining of the Tippecanoe and Wa
bash rivers after. the water had re-
ceded and found one of the larger OF
the mounds washed out. Uncovered
by the waters but undIsturbed were
five skeletons. The center one of the
quintet was larger than the others.

known to antiquarians as the Jesuit
double cross"
The young man. after making these
discoveries. dug lower into the spot
and found a stone pipe. several hand
fuls of arrow and spear heads of
stone, a curious copper ornament, two
metal buttons and several other small
stone articles. both implements OF
peace and war.
1t is supposed by some that the
larger of the Ave mentor all the
skeletons, have been determined as

airy. while the others are supposed to
have been Indians.
History tells of the burial OF De La
Sale. the French explorer who was
in the Northwest territory in the
year 1850. in the Mississippi river.
after he had been disappointed in his
venture of the Griffin. which he dis
patched from the head of Lake Huron.
The boat never returned from It's voy-
age to Niagara and the Frenchman
started on the long trip OF 1900 miles
to Canada. first going down the Mis-
sissippi for supplies in two canoes
with an Indian hunter and four
French companions. 1t Is supposed
that the skeletons found are those of
men who either we're In De La Sales
party or who met the Jesuit mission
airy, Marquette. who later went
through the section.
1t is known that Marquette was
through that part OF the country and
some students are CT the opinion that
the skelentos are those of four fol.
lowers of the Marquette party and one
of the Jesuit's group of missionaries.
Some have asserted the larger body

When You Have Gained II.

You press ahead to gain success,
And far away you see goal;
But are you touched by tenderness.
And have you gladness In your soul?
You plunge ahead day after day,
You have no time to jest or pause;
But do you leave along the way
Ill will for you or for your cause?
Long. long ago you made your start,
And you have travelled far and fast;
But have you kindness In your heart
And their respect whom you have
passed?
You view your goal afar; you press
Unscarred ahead where others fall;
But are you sure twill be success
When you have gained 1t. after all2

Steamship Agents Blame Decrease OF

cabin passenger traffic between this
port and Europe was 2J7 ahead of the
same period in 1912 west-bound and
1873 bookings ahead oast-bound. The
second-cabin passenger traffic showed
an increase of $4,000 west-bound and
2,434 east-bound from Jan. to May
over last year.
Traffic east-bound from now on will
be about 80 per cent below last year,
according to the steamship agents.
This. they say. is chiefly due to the
number of cancellat ons OF bookings
made In January and February by
persons who were sufferers by the
foods in the middle west and by the
tornado in the Miss ssippi valley.
Generally the year Of the presiden-
tial election Is a poor one for foreign
travel. but 1912 was very good year.

State Seed Growers Plan inspection.

The good name of Wisconsins pedi-
greed grains is to be protected by a
strict inspection of all seeds sold, ac
cording to plans announced by Prof
r. A. Moore of the college of agricul
ture of the University OF Wisconsin,
Steps have just been taken by which
inspection work will be carried on
this summer among the members of
the Wisconsin Experiment association.
which now has 1000 members, nearly
all of whom raise pure-bred seed. All
the members of the association have
at some time or other studied at the
State College of Agriculture.
The expenses of the inspection work
are to be borne partly by the state or
ganization and partly by those who
offer seed for sae. The association
has already adopted a registered trade
mark to be used on every shipment of
approved seeds. In this way the
worldwide reputation of Wisconsin's
pure-bred seed grains will be adequate
