"A Legend Of the Lake

Representative w. s. Hammond OF
Minnesota comes from district
which can boast OF one OF the most
romantic places in the Union. Near
the town OF Fairmont, Martin county.
is chain of beautiful lakes sfnbos-
oIned in hills which were once the
heme of the Sisseton Sioux Indians.
And IN the shore of the most pic
turesGre OF all is a high point of land
juiting out into the water.
+ This cape is said by the Indians to
be an artificial elevation, and made
by the redskins themselves for a Gu
rious reason. Many years ago, SO the
story runs. there came to dwell with
the tribe an aged white man and his
little daughter. Both were musicians
and the sweet sounds that came from
their tent were the most melodious
that had ever greeted the Indians
ears.
But ct last there was great
drought For weeks no rain fell and
the crops withered. The game grew
scarce and food was hard to get. In
this time of dire disaster the medi-
cine men of the tribe consulted with
the gods and were told that the deit.
les were angry at white people being
harbored and that the palefaces must
be put to death.
This edict greatly worried the
chief, who was fond of the musicians,
but he was obliged to give in to the
overwhelming force of the entire
tribe, which demanded death to APP
pease the gods. So the old man ara
child were taken down. by the side of
the lake, killed and buried just by the
edge of the water.
No sooner was the crime commit
ted than the Indians felt the deepest
remorse at the awful deed and sought
some means to wipe out the%wrong.
This they endeayored to do by pro
nounciGg a decree that every Indian
who passed the graves must throw
upon them handful Of earth.
This was done, and in the course
Of years the graves grew into a high
mound, then into the cape that rises
on the shores of the lonely lake, a
memorial to their death.

OF SHIPPERS

A l5-course dinner with its frilis
and flowers is awaiting the arrival OF
a pair Of deep-sea shippers now be-
lieyed to be scudding before favorable
winds from the north Pacific 10 Hilo.
Two veteran mariners, masters Of
rival packets, met at Port Townsend
two weeks ago and entered into an
agreement that the one who lost the
race TO the Hawaii port would make
up a purse containing a trifhng $500,
and also settle the bill incurred at
the hostelry presided over by Mine
Host Lycurgus.
The Hilo boniface has been ordered
to prepare most sumptuous dinner,
when the American scbooners A. M.
Baxter and Camano have dropped
their mudhooks at a safe anchorage
behind the big breakwater. il
The Baxter, with lumber from Mu-
kilteo, and the Camano, from Port
Gamble, cleared Port Townsend the
same afternoon. The vessels are now
eight days out from the Sound. The
race down the Coast and across to
the islands is being watched with
much interest by seafaring men.
