The guards are Wyandots, and I had
only to ask the chief to let me dress
Monsieur Brady's wounds. He had not
been warned against me, n suspect
ed nothing. The Englishman who was
left in command was led by Girty to
the other end of the village. When the
chief sought him, he was not to be
found, and SO l was given permission"

sleeve.

from this side-here, next to river,
monsieur. When you hear an owl boot
three times creep beneath the skins
and down the bank to the waters edge.
You must move like foxes, for there
will be sleeping warriors to pass. Go
down stream"
And then?" / asked breathlessly, as
she stopped to glance behind.
"a quarter of a mile below, at the
end OF the village, around a sharp
bend, Girty will have a canoe tied to a
tree that overhangs the water. 1t will
be in shadow, and concealed by brush.
He has promised to put into it food,
paddles and n gun. You must hide

question-where is St. Clair?"
II do not know exactly, but he is
marching toward the little Wabash; he
seeks to destroy the Miami towns"

LESS than two thousand, the scouts
say. He only expects to meet the In
dams of the Wabash"
A head was thrust through the flap,
and a gruff voice spoke in a strange
language. The girls fingers pressed

cerise, or green or gold or Tin greater
numbers than any other) black and
white combinations. There were para
soils with wide black and white stripes,
running around or up and down, and
there were those of narrower stripes.
There were checks and bars in black
and white, and many of these had
narrow borders of ribbon in vivid col.
ors shirred to the edge.
Perhaps the best-liked model is the
stripe pictured in the illustration.
This style is often shown with a wide
black or colored border about the edge
and often with a lowered border of
roses against a colored ground. A
black and white parasol is the best
substitute for the all-black (which
seems to be not in high favor Just
now). In this particular combination,
either in stripes or checks, one may
add a border of narrow shirred rib
bon in any of the bright colors, and
change this border to suit.
Next to the black and white and the
all-white parasols, green has found the
greatest number of admirers. Cerise
may be conceded the third place, and
after that gold or orange color. The
black parasoI except in the small
hand shades or carriage" p~arasols, is
rather co%nspicuously absent from the
fashion parade.

Fortunes IN a c

Several millionaire families in New
York possess immense fortunes in
laces alone. The laces owned by the
Astor family are valued at 5000, 900;
those Of the vanderbilts at $500, 600
1t is said that the New York -Four
Hundred buy mor lace than any
collectors in the world. No fewer
than twenty wealthy women may be
mentioned who each-ewn lace worth
$4,000. Lace is the luxury of the
rich. No ordinary m~iddle-class collec
tor can hope to possess anything but
a few choice pieces, if lucky enough
to be able to have those.
There are several fine collections
amongst the English a~ristocracy. The
priceless lace of the late Queen Vic
toria, worth at least 1915, 000. was
chiefly left to H. r. H. Princess Henry
of Battenberg. Queen Alexandra has
q magnificent collection; years ago its
value was said to be $3.50, 900.

them friendly enough.
1t was the fourth day, on the banks
Of the Maumee, that we came stray
Cling into the Indian encampmsnt, and
passed through bowling hordes, who
struck at us in spite of the guards.
The word passed that n of the white
prisoners was Stephen Brady cause
them to press about us SO close that
we were fairly hemmed into the mass,
infuriated faces on every side, the wild
s%hrieking making an indescribable din.
The situation was becoming serious,
for the guards cared little what befell
u.s., when Girty, accompanied by three
Wyandot chiefs and a white man in
British uniform, fought passage
through the crowd, and by threats and
blows, won way for US through he
village. The extent of this surprised
me, and gave me a new conception OF
the power of those northwest Indian
tribes. There were hundreds, perhaps
thousands, gathered there, for we only
traversed n end of the encampment,
the warriors of tribes whose homes
were as far away as the great lakes
and the big rivers. There were few
wigwams erected, not more than two
or three standing in the shadow of
trees close beside the river. Big as
the encampment was, it was no perma
nent village, but a mere rendezvous
for the various tribes allied for war.
To one of these, covered with deerskin
and rendered hideous by tribal totems,
we were taken, and thrust within. AT
last we were alone, Brady and l, al
though we could still hear the yelling
without. He lay extended on his lit
ter, and l dropped to the ground, thor
oughly exhausted from the rough buff
feting through which had passed.

ARCHAEOLOGICAL Conclusions.

In a recent lecture before the Royal
institute in London Prof. Arthur
Keith, in an anthropological study,
gave it as his opinion that Shake
speare was a descendant of the bronze
age invaders, the true or round head
people. This vas a remarkable fact,
the professor added, for it was this
same short-headed stock, spread
abroad in central Europe, throughout
Germany, France and Italy, which has
produced the worlds finest artists.
Burns, he said, on the contrary, was a
good representative Of tie long-headed
type of man. His skull was very broad
and of excessive length, and appeared
to be closely set to the neck. 1t rep
resented an ancient type.

New Haven, Sept. l0.--With "key-

In his address Senator Brand4gee said
that the Democratic party has not kept

questions.
"Business men feel" he said, "that the
policies of the administration are UNI

transportation interests, that the new
banking system is an experiment and
that the government has become a critic

STRUCK BY STREET CAR.
Center Rutland Woman Tried to Drive
Cow OFF Track.

Rutland, Sept With her left hip

woman living at Center Rutland is IN
the Proctor hospital, as the result of
being struck by an incoming trolley car

The woman. with her husband, Adam
Cshur. was driving several cows on the
road and one was walking in the car

automobile and a trolley car were

the lights confused the woman, who in

tracks ran in front of ,he t%olley car and
before Motorman Ballard could apply
the brakes was thrown to the ground.
She was taken on the car TO her home
