Michelet was made agent at the res
ervation the powers he carried with
him were elastic. He also asserted
that the timber was sold under the
provisions of the law drawn by Sena-
tor Knute Nelson.
Had Job Only Four Years
Mr.. Hall said that he had not held
Office in the Department of Indian At
fairs for eight years, as stated in the
Washington dispatches, but for only
little over four years instead.
He said that he first was made chair
man of the Chippewa commission of
three members in 1890 and held that
position for two years or until Presi-
dent Cleveland went into Office in 1892.
Then he lost his office along with the
general change in the political COM
plexion of the administration. With
the going into office of President Nc
Kinley in 1897 he again was given an
Indian post, being made chairman of
| the Minnesota Indian commission,
having jurisdiction over all the Indians
in Minnesota. This post he held for
! two years.
Tells What He Did
Mr.. Hall was very much injured by
the charges that during his term in
/ Office "all he had done, while drawing
S31 900, was to remove fifty-one In
dams from Mile Laos to White Earth
and that he did all he could to dis
courage and battle the investigators. !"
I He declared that during his term of
office he had been instrumental in re-
moving 1000 Indians from various
places over the state and establishing
them at White Earth. He said that
he had built 200 houses and furnished
the Indians with 800 head Of oxen.
Asked if he had, as charged, aided
in any way in influencing the Indians
to dispose of their rights, Mr.. Hall re-
piled emphatically;

100000 People
Have Seen VIM. Taft
During Presidents Term of Office He
Has Travelled lib, $50 Miles in
Private Car

When President Taft stepped down
from his private car on his recent re-
turn from New Haven the total mile
age of his travels during his four
wears in the White House reached
113.659-enough to have taken him
four and one-half times around the
world, or an average of about seventy
five miles for every day he has been
president The total is exclusive OF
the hundreds of miles the President
has travelled by motor in every part OF
the country; his trips through cities,
his tours about Washington and in the
vicinity of Beverly.
May Reach 125,000 Miles
Including the automobile trips and
three short journeys to be taken be-
fore March 4, Mr.. Taft will have
travelled during his term about $1,000
miles.
Mr.. Taft has made about $4,000
miles of the total on his two savings
around the circle" He has visited
every state in the Union with the ex-
ception of Oklahoma and North OAK
ota. Two trips to the Panama canal
zone have swelled the President
mileage.
eco Nights on Road
1t is probable that the President has
been on the road more than 200 days
and nights. On his two long trips, he
was away for more than 1870 days ano
on visits of inspection TO Panama, the
President slept aboard trains, battle
ships or in the tropics for the better
part of month.
/ Congress gave the President $4,000
year for travelling expenses, and Mr.
Taft has used that appropriation every
year he has been in office. If Con
gress wishes President-elect Wilson tt
see the country early in his admin
! istration, it probably will be neces
sary to place an emergency fund a
his disposal. q
100000 People Saw Him
At the end Of last years long trip
Secretary Hilles estimated that tn
President on that journey had beer
seen by more than 100000 persons
He probably has delivered close t.
1000 addresses, long and short.

PLANS INAUGURAL
GAME WITH TIGERS
Manager Madigan, Of George
town, Wants Princeton Quint
Here on March 3.

Princeton University will in all proba-
bility play Georgetown a return basket
ball game in this city on March 3, II
the plans which are now entertained by
Manager Madigan. of the Blue and
Gray quint. do not go awry. The Tigers
were originally scheduled to play the
Hilltoppers in the Arcade on February
Is, but were forced to cancel because of
a conflict with the dates In the Inter-
collegiate Basketball League. and, as 1t
is the custom of the New Jersey insti-
tuition to close their season on Wash
ington's Birthday, it was thought i'm
possible to arrange another date This
year, however. as II is the intention of
the Orange and Black school to send
1,000 students to march in the inaugural
parade in honor of President Wilson,
who was formerly head of Princeton,
the basketball management of the
Tigers have practically agreed to send
the Quint to this city also.
In case the game Is finally booked,
Swarthmore, who is scheduled to play
the West Enders on March 3, will be
met on Wednesday. March 8. as such
an arrangement is agreeable to both
managements.

PHILADELPHIA, Pa, Jan. 26.-Ac-

Baltimore orioles, Jimmy Walsh and
Eddie Murphy are going to be the king

Those two kids will be among the
leading fielders Of the American League

performer around, the inner works him.

why, Mack has the two best young
outfielders in the country in Walsh and
Murphy. These boys played under me

do. They didn't play in enough games
in Philadelphia last season to show their
true worth, yet they made a good show

has about as much. a problem arrang-

Athletic partisans hope that Dunn is
handing out prime dope. for IL Walsh
and Murphy come up to the mark il
will make pennant success easier.
Both OF these youths have signed
those papers for 1913. Mack obtained
their signatures before the club dis
banded last fall.
Eddie Murphy played in thirty-three
games in right field last fall and soused

is the best man topping a Mack batting

Walsh Is a different type OF outfielder
He lays his beef against the ball and
punches out savage belts. Playing in
thirty-one games. he returned a per-
centage OF .252; but Jimmy is not the

in numerous box scores before his worth

VANDERBILT WON'T

Negotiations Fail Between Hill
toppers and Commodores
for Football Game.

Vanderbilt, football champions of the
South. will not be seen at the Hilltop
next fall, negotiations for contest
having fallen through. The Blue and
Gray management sought game with
the Commodores on Thanksgiving Day,
but Vanderbilt meets Sewanee on that
day, and will not give up this contest.
Carlisle, too, has declined to come here
on Turkey Day, preferring to book a
game with some larger university where
the profits will be greater. 1t looks
now as il V. T. !. or Bucknell will be
the attraction al the Hilltop In the final
game Of the season.

Holy Cross Manager Barrett is now
in communication with the Worcester
collegians. Holy Cross journeyed to
st. Louis last fall. but will not make
the trip again. 1t is thought that
Georgetown will be good attraction in

West Point is seeking another game
with the Blue and Gray. In 1910
Georgetown gained great fame by a
no-score tie with the Army eleven, and
1t is possible that they will meet again

Jim Thorpe seems TO be in danger OF
being declared a professional and hav-
ing his hard-won laurels taken from

target of SO much recrimination. How
ever, that's the penalty he must pay
for lying. But when one thinks of the
many other alleged amateurs not so un-

he has some extenuation.
