There is a little Indian girl up on
Hudson bay who has never been out
of her native woods. She speaks poet
ically. as all aborigines do Her vo-
cabulary is small, but she makes up
for the deficiency of words in inn
agery. One summer Miss Susan Jones.
a matter of fact young woman as
ever trod the soil. took il into her head
to spend her vacation in upper Canada.
These two met in the Indian girls
home on the banks of the Little Whale
river. Miss Jones said she had heard
I didn't get the girls name; Miss Jones
said IL was OBSERVATION-DISCLOSURES
to tell her one. Thereupon the Indian
told the following story:
"Abasca was the daughter of great
chief. who lived long. long ago when
the first white man came to this coun-
try. She had never seen any man ex-
cept a -
Indian" suggested Miss Jones.
she had only seen the dusky men
OF the forest like herself The first
man 10 come was tall as the young
pine. straight as the arrow and his
eye was that OF the eagle. Abasca
saw him, and her heart few TO him
like the bird"
"A case of love at first sight, you
mean?"
.Abasca was loved by Stormwind,
the son Of a chief Stormwind was
brave as the water that leaps from the
rock. and his arrow could pierce the
leaf that trembles at the top OF the
tree
"A regular William TELL Miss Jones
interrupted.
HE had not the heart TO give way
70 another. He was not born 10 know
that 70 love Abasca truly he should
give her 70 the man she loved. The
white man might do that, not the In
dian. Stormwind learned that she had
given her hear 20 the white man, and
he resolved that the white man should
die.
"Stormwind made this vow at the
season when in this country the lamp
never goes out AT night
Did they use kerosene OF oil?"
For the winter had passed when
the sun al midday is small and cold in
the south The white man was in the
wood where he hunted the fox and
the mink and the otter. Stormwind
followed the trail and came TO his
enemy when the sun stood high above
their heads.
'Trapper,' said Stormwind."
What a funny name, I like Storm
wind much better"
The white man may come; the
white man may hunt the fox and the
mink and the otter. he NAV ride in his
boat over the waves OF the great bay,
but he shall not take the maiden from
the Indian.

Sidelights on the European War

Paris Correspondence Of The As
ISOLATED Press Three hundred mil
lion dollars lost by the textile indus
tries Of northern France in raw ma
teriaIs and manufactured products
taken by the Germans as booty of war
that is the estimate given the Asso-
ciated Press by an authorized mem
Der OF the most influential textile cor
poTation in France and an authority on
Industrial subjects.
What the total loss. including dam
ages 10 plants and TO buildings, may
amount to. there are no indications. for
many rumors Of the transferring of
valuable machines 10 Germany have
not been confirmed The above esti-
mate is based on confirmed facts only.
II more than bears out the estimate of
the German publicist. Ludwig Gang
hofer, who after a visit to the German
front, told the Muenchner Neueste Ma
ChriChten that the war booty sent
from Northern France to Germany in
the form OF cereals. sugar, metals,
wool leather, etc, amounted TO five
hundred million dollars during the
first six months of the war. It is sup
posed that his figures were based on
the reqUistion price said to be very in
ferior TO the market value. on the lat
ter basis the actual total would be far
in excess Of the German figures: the
estimate for the textile industries alone
would so indicate.
It IS known that the Germans took
nearly all the raw material and finish
ed goods in the great wooden manu-
featuring centers of lie Coteau, Rou-
baix and Tourcoing. where America
buys heavily OF the finer wooden fab
RIGS. They also emptied the linen fac
tories with the exception of those at
where they were driven
back too soon, and at Lille where they
have recently begun 10 requisition
these products.
The territory occupied by the Ger
mans contains more than eighty per
cent OF the wooden and linen industries
n France; the consequence is a short
age OF all these products. The army is

Petrograd, Correspondence Of the
Associated Press A Kiev newspaper
publishes the following account Of the
Austrian officers attempt 10 save the
coIors Of the fortress of Przemysl:
AT the surrender Of Przemysl the
garrison disappeared. A few days ago
a party of captured officers, with Cen
eraI Tomashy at their head, was quar-
tered in Kiev AS the result of iu-
formation received. the prisoners were
searched. In General Tomashy S hand
bag was discovered, complete and in
perfect condition, the standard Of the
fortress OF Przemysl. A further
search disclosed long colored stripes
of material hidden away in the lining
of the officers headdresses. These
strips proved 10 be parts OF the regl-
mental colors.
