The year 1913 stands out as the
third biggest year in travel to Yellow
stone park, in all its history. TIE
years that surpassed it were 1905, the
year of the Lewis and Clark exposition
at Portland, and 1909, the year of the
Alasta-Yukon-Pacific exposition at Sc
attic. In the former year the tourists
to the park numbered 26,1S8 and in
1909 there were 32,545 good people
who Toasted their eyes and souls on
the unique things found in geyser
land. Now comes 1913. with no expo
sitions nor o. her unusual attractions
to stimulate travel, With a total Of "a
629 tourists.

will be negligible and the race will

But. while the race as Il race Is dis
appearing. the number of ''breeds"
classed as INDIANS is increasing.
From 1900 to 1910 there was an in
crease of about 10000 in the number Of
Indians in the United States. bringing
the total up to 2Go000. In Alaska
there are 25.000 Indians. Fifty-siX per
cent Of all the Indians in the United
States are full bloods. But the mixed
breeds are increasing in number.
while the full bloods are decreasing.
When intermarried with whites more
children result. and larger proportion
of these chi dren live to manhood.
Oklahoma Indians are very badly
mixed" only 1866 per cent Of their
number being pure blooded. The gen
eral proportion in the United States is
Sc per cent. Because of the wealth of
Oklahoma Indians many white men
married into the tribes in order that
they might participate in the tribal
wealth.
The result is that two-thirds Of Okla
homa Indians are of mixed blood. On

The Bennington evening banner. (Bennington, Vt.) 19??-1961, 1913-05-19
Has Never Been known to Attempt to Make Herself Plain
CORA MEL PATTEN
Large and Appreciative Audience En-
Joys Excellent Entertainment

A large and keenly appreciative au-
dience gathered at the chapel Of the
Second Congregational church last
Friday evening to listen to Cora Mel
Patterns technically correct rendi-
ton of Bernard Shaw's "The Arms
and the Man." holding the audience
in rapt attention for more than an
hour an a quarter. The play was full
of subtle and open thrusts at the
present social shams, unreasonable
attitudes, affectations, deceits, polio
les, ETC., of the times of both war and
peace, speaking in pleasant and kind
ly sarcasm of many abuses which
other writer's have felt needed to be
reformed, but who dared not express
their convictions in words. Miss
Patten is a postmaster in her art
and handled her difficult lines with
the ease and grace of the profession
al she undoubtedly is. The tones of
voice Of the Twentieth Century socie-
ty butterfly were unmistakable, as al
so the deeper tones of the mother
and the very masculine voices of the
soldiers. Seldom has a Bennington
audience been given a greater treat,
or listened with more profit to a nov
city in the way of reading.
Saturday afternoon at Academy
hall Miss Patten delighted another
goodsized audience composed most
ly of women and children with a rem
dition of ''The Blue Bird" Maeter-
linck's famous fairy play and her
was again demonstrated
by the remarkable manner in which
she held the attention of the little
folks in attendance. The most cap
able impersonators and character de-
lineators frequently fail in their eff
forts to appeal to the developed
reasoning powers of "grown-ups" but
the artist who can carry with her
an audience of children through an
afternoons entertainment with no
variation of subject must be accord
ed high rank in her profession
