a native woman for an hour and nnaly induced her to sell him for eight dollars a string of gold beads for which she had originally asked twelve. He didn' need the money, but he had lot of fun out of the native woman.
 Having finally made the purchase he was inordina tely proud of his beads, 1ol, it was alleged, the gold for them had been mined from the deposits owned by those Indians and the beads had been fashioned by their own workmen.
 When the party approached the Texas border the majority of its members showed little disposition to produce the various trinkets they had purchased. but Congressman Murdock, having had a hand in framing the tariff laws, insisted on declaring everything he had and pay ing duty it.

Quanah had appeared a few years earlier before the committee, and it's chair man had given him some very definite instruction to the effect that polygamy on his reservations should be stopped. He was told that his bucks should be made to send their surplus wives back to their parents.
 Two years elapsed and Quanah again appeared before the committee. Senator Clapp>asked him if he had remembered the injunction to make his. followers dis pose of all but one wife.
 Yes. Me tell 'em, said Quanah.
 Ibid they send all their wives home but one?" asked the senator.

counted for, reports began to come in of isolated parties that might be suffering great hardships There was, for instance, 8 party of six men half mile down the beach at cannery. Nothing was known of the condition of these men. Lieut. w. K. Thompson of the Manning came to me on the second day and asked that he De ordered to the rescue I told him that l would give him no such order, as 1t would be like sending a man to certain death: but that he might go of his own accord if he so desired.
 Off to the Rescue.
 ''FIe immediately proceeded to make up a party of volunteers and start for the cannery. This party consisted of sec ond lieutenant in the revenue cutter serv- ice. a third lieutenant of engineers, the ships writer, the assistant master-at- arms, a seaman, the master of a private tug that happened to be in port and one local resident.
 s'In the intense darkness the first fear of these men was in losing each other. This was obviated by the use of long rope, each man attaching himself to it at a given distance. This precaution also helped toward safety from another great danger in the expedition. There are high hills just back of the town of Kodiak and upon these the fall of ashes had become so heavy that great slides were breaking loose and from time to time coming down upon the town like an avalanche. If one of these should strike the party the rope might aid in those escaping sub- mersion rescutng the others.
 "Davis, the local resident, spiked this

mountain on Kodiak. and we thought that this was probably responsible for the fall of ashes. It never occurred to that such a demonstration due to Katmaf. seventy-hve miles away. Req soning that the volcano in question must be near by. we were prepared at any mo- ment for flood of lava a shower of rocks that would be our end.
 '<Then there came still greater peril. With the changing of winds there would come to us occasional whiffs of sulphur fumes These were strong enough to cause violent coughing and great suffer ing We knew well that these fumes need not become very dense to suffocate us all like so many rats in ship that is being funigated.
 "Dr. Silverman. the local physician at Kodiak, with whom was discussing the situation along toward morning, showed me a little, ivory-handled pistol he was carrying.
 < I may use this on myself and Mrs. Silverman,' he said, if the fumes grow much worse. It is more mercifu1 than slow suffocatfon.'

senting itself All the water sources were filled with the ashes and there was not drop of water ashore with which natives or Americans might cool their burning threats. The evaporators of the Manning had early been put to work and we were distilling plenty of drinking wa ter for all corners. Without this every individual faced death and it made the plan of remaining doubly imperative.
 By the time twenty-four hours had passed the whole island was covered with a blanket of ashes a foot deep. The fall had ceased for a time June ' and there was hope that the disturbance was over. At noon, however, 1t began again and gradually the pitch darkness settled down The glimmer of hope was gone. The bell in the Greek church began to toll the call to prayers and the natives stumbled their way through the darkness to that haven.
 I sent word to Father Kasherveroff that all the natives might be taken care of either on the Manning or in the ware house on the dock. By this time they were ready to accept the dictation of the priest. and soon there were 15O of them in the warehouse and 1S5 on the Manning. The pinch of hunger was already upon the multitude and we undertook to sup ply them with food as well as water
