A PRIMITIVE PEOPLE.

Philadelphia Record: In British
Columbia there exists, within twelve
miles of the f1ourishing city of Calgary,
the Sarcee tribe of Indians, whose lives
and habits, despite their proximity to
the city, are about the same as those
Of their ancestors for hundreds and
hundreds Of years. o..
This tribe retains it's painter the
artistic historian whose duty it is to
preserve for posterity suitable records
of the exploits of the tribe. These
records are, as they have always been,
made upon steer hides. A great num-
Der of such hides are now carefully
preserved at the Office Of the agent on
h Sarcee reserve. s
The youth of the tribe rely for their
history upon the campfire stories and a
well-tanned steer hide covered with
queer Indian characters, crudely paint
ed by means of a pigment concocted
from the juices of herbs and plants, Z
While. these records are by no means
of a ~haphazard character, they are not
altogether regular" or chronologically
arranged. ,
1t seems that when several chiefs and
medicine men attain a certain advanc-
ed age there is called an ASSEMBLY
at which, n by one, the old men
stand forth before the people and re-
count the stories of their lives. These
embrace thrilling tales OF battles
fought, great deeds performed, and, sad
to relate, of horses stolen.
Sometimes an ASSEMBLY" continues
for several days. The younger mem
bers of the tribe, sitting about, listen
eagerly to the recitals, which they, in
turn, will some day recount to their
own sons, until the stories become the
tribal traditions of the past. AS ths
old men hold forth, with much dra.
matte fire, the painter sits upon tht
ground, his steer hide spread out be.
fore him, and upon this he paints will
his rude pigments pictures to il1ustrat,
the incidents he has just heard.
A circle, for instance, represents /
barricade or encanpment. Awkward,
drawn pictures or animals stand TO,
the horses stolen; a galloping horsl
with. a brave on its back suggests tn,
tale Of a wild flight across the plain be,
fore. pursuing enemies; a flag ma,
mean a. battle won; a tadpole-lik,

able ingenuity is evinced in the group,
ing OF the characters and each sketcl
is, in its way, a key to the thrillin,
tales which in time become Sarce'

PREFERS DEATH.
TO Separation

Chicago, Sept. 17.-At the inquest
here yesterday over the body Of Mrs.
Grace Scott of Omaha, Neb., who COM
mitted suicide, the jewelry and other
property of the %decedent, at first re-
ported missing was accounted for.
Mrs. Scott left a note for her hus-
band. Arthur H. Scott, of Omaha,
from whom she separated a year ago,
reading: Il love Arthur better than
my life and ] am willing to die rather
than live without him."
Mrs. Fred Myers. Of Omaha, mother
Of Mrs. Scott, said that MI. Scott had
been sending his wife $125 a month
since the separation and that on
Aug. 1 last, he was to have made a
final settlement Of $4,000 with her.
They were not divorced, Mrs. Myers
said, and her daughter had made a
number of fruitless efforts to obtain
a reconciliation with her husband.

oils, and perhaps half as many more
antics do most congregate.
The authors of this hoax should
take shame to themselves. Not even
urgent need Of money can sanction
their proceeding. They might without
reproach sell rain-making rights to
Oklahoma farmers; they might sell
the far-famed brick-dust and water
fy-eradicator, or fit out haystacks
with lightning rods; scarcely n re-
source of the long history of bunco
would be denied them by the public
opinion Of crookdom.
But to slaughter the innocents
where they run in shoals is bad form.
No crook who respects himself would
descend to such pot-hunting.

HElNzE MUST MAKE
good A Big sum

Boston, Sept. 17.-Under a supreme
court decision rendered yesterday, r.
Augustus Heinze of Butte, Mont, is
given sixty days in which to redeem
or file an intention to redeem securi-
ties valued at between 100000 and
$500, 600 which he pledged five years
ago with A. D. +. Adams for loans
amounting to $500, 900. Adams is now
serving a prison sentence for rehypo-
Indicating the stock security for the
Heinze loans.
The court finds that, with the ex-
ception of w. A. Cove n Charles P.
Cove, of Boston fifteen defendants who
loaned Adams money on the Heinze
stocks know that the securities pleug-
ed by Adams were Heinze's property.
Tn case has been in the courts for
nearly four years.
