chiefs. headed by Hollow Bear and Red
Cloud. The party sat down and pro-
cecdcd to dcvour a repast Of sweet-meats
which was washed down with Large cups
of strong coffee. They listened to the
music of the Spanish Students orchestra

slack while the tables were filled. At

Horn Bear arose and expressed to Gov.
Suiz"r. through an Indian Interpreter.
the thanks OF the Indians for the past
efforts Of the Governor. as a legislator,
in behalf of the aboricines.
Hollow Horn Bear was followed by Red
Cloud who expressed similar sentiments
The Indian told the Governor that they
knew him as II friend. and that his repu-
tation as a globe trotter, a traveller in
wild countries. and his particularly wide
knowledge OF the United States was ap-
preciated throughout the West
When the Chief will come to the
hunting grounds of the West again"
said Hollow Horn Bear, we will take
him to hunt the elk and the bear and
the antelope. and We will lead him to the
deep pools wheer the giant trout and SAL
mon and Grayling lie in the shadows.
and he shall sleep in the teepees of the
Indian"
In brief speech of thanks Gov. Sulzer
told the chiefs that he had been from
the first day of his entrance into the field
Of national affairs the friend of tn cred
man, and that he would always be.
Then the chiefs swept out into the cor
ridor and ascended the apartments of

their grievances to Mr.. Bryan. who cX-

tor of the Indian tribesmen Of the United
States, but. said Mr.. Bryan, you will
remember that you have in me a friend
in the Cabinet of the new President. and
my voice and my work will be for you
when ! can help you"
All of the Indian speeches were made
through interpreters, and Mr.. Bryan.
when they had finished, told them that he
felt. after listening to the graceful de-
livery of their addresses that his own
career as an orator might have been
more successful had he possessed the
persuasive qualifications and the grace
of appeal that marked their methods of
delivery. This pleased the chiefs great
ly. and murmurs of approval greeted Mr..
Bryan's compliment.

CASE WHERE
THE DOG CAME BACK
Caruso, the $1,000 Pet Of Miss Helen
Taft, Turns Up While the
Police Search.

CarIso, the famed Italian poodle. who
wandered away from his mistress, Miss
Helen Taft, while she was walking from
the White House to the residence of for
mcr Secretary of the Navy Meyer on
Tuesday afternoon. and was sought by
the entire police force of the National
Capital, has been found.
Although born in the lap Of luxury and
reared amid surroundings which might
have destroyed most of his daggish quail
tiles, Caruso did not lose his instint of
directions and felt perfectly at home in
his wanderngs. not to mention a ca
ninish delight in a freedom to which he
has been unaccustomed.
After Caruso strayed away from Mice
Taft he trotted back to the White House.
Stran.e occupants of the Executive Man
sion caused Caruso to return to the
streets, and he probably wandered all
night. Hunger gained sway with his emo
tions yesterday, and shortly after noon
a maid in the residence of Mrs. Thomas
Laughlin, an aunt of Miss Taft, heard a
dog scratching at the door
Caruso was found in the vestibule and
there was much business of tail wagging
and joyful leaps into the air when he
recognized the occupants of the house
A telegram was at once dispatched to
Miss Taft at Augusta. Ga, and she re
Piled without delay that she was very
glad Caruso had been found. II is prob
able Caruso will be shipped to Miss
Taft.
Dog fanciers say Caruso is worth not a
cent less than $500 But it is doubtful if
even that sum of money would buy the
dog. He was bred in the kennels OF
King Emanuel of Italy, who presented
the dog to Mr.. George Won l.. Meytr.
Mr.. Mtyer presented Caruso to Miss Taft
and she is much attached to the dog.
Caruso's coat is as white as snow and is
clipped after the maner in which all
fashionable poodles are trimmed.
