INDIANS IN UNITED STATES
How the Red Man Is Turning Defeat
Into Trlumph"-Increaslng Attend
ance Shown at Schools.

No longer can It be said that the
only good Indian is a dead Indian.
That statement, born Of ignorance of
the real character of the Indian, is
now definitely eliminated from the list
of epigrams by report Of the census
bureau on the present Indian popula-
tion in the United States.
While the report shows much low
or rate Of growth for the Indian popu-
lation than for the white, an increas-
ing mixture of white blood, and de
creasing vitality of full-blood Indians,
indicating tendency to disanpear al
together, It also shows increasing at
tendance at school and decreasing IL
literacy. an increase in the percent.
age of the self-supporting and de.
crease in the number of reservation
Indians.
While the report shows that there
were 265,68S Indians in the United
States, exclusive Of Alaska, in 1910,
an increase Of 1890, or per cent
over the number reported In 1890,
there are about 100000 Indians In this
country at the present time. Among
them are to be found manufacturers,
bankers, United States officials, me-
chanical engineers, locomotive engi-
neers, telegraph operators, actors,
artists. clergymen. college professors,
physicians, surgeons and lawyers. The
Indian has turned defeat into triumph.
He has played the game according to
the rules laid down by civilization
and has won.

HELP FOR POTATO GROWERS
Finest Of Tubers May Be Grown With
the Aid of EmbaImlns Fldid, Elk
perlments Show.

1t seems very curious that a chem
ical extensively used to preserve the
dead in the way Of an embalming fluid
could be successfully used as help
toward growing good potatoes. but
such is the case, remarks an exchange.
It has been found that proper Sc
luton of formaldehyde will insure
most excellent crop of the finest pota-
toes, where it has formerly been quite
difficult to make certain soil grow any
thing but very inferior CROP
To prevent scabby or rusty-appear-
ing potatoes, the potatoes to be plant
ed should be soaked for two hours in
solution composed of one pint Of
pure formaldehyde to 80 gallons Of
water
1t may be placed In large tubs, and
the potatoes put In burlep sacks and
laid In the liquid for a couple of hours,
and then spread out on clean grass to
dry for an hour or more before cutting
and planting.
The potatoes should be cut into
pieces having two or more eyes from
which to sprout.
One good plan where number OF
bushels of potatoes are to be planted
is to- have the liquid in barrels. with
spigot at the bottom for drawing OF
liquid.
Potatoes should not be gathered up,
after being treated, In the same sacks
or baskets they we're in prior to being
soaked, as they are apt to be reinfect-
ed more or less by the disease which
is being fought.
In certain localities the potato has
become SO diseased it is almost i'm.
possible to secure pure healthy seed
and this formaldehyde process is rem
edying the difficulty largely.

NATION HAD EXALTED IDEAS
Pyramids and Temples Of Early mexl-
can Race Reveal Much to
Student Of Religion.

Religion and superstition are much
combined in the mind of the Mexicans,
the result of both ancient and modern
creeds. AS to the antique beliefs and
cult, there is much that appeals to the
philosopher in the religious structures
and history of the prehistoric. semi
civilized peoples of Mexico. or indeed
of Spanish-America, whether North
or South.
The pyramids and temples which
the Toltecs and the Aztecs and the
Incas built have something grand and
broad underlying their main idea, the
idea of being able to get on their tenn
pies rather than In them.
There is ever source OF inspiration
in being upon the point Of an emil
nence. to commune with providence,
rather than being immured within
some gloomy walls. with topping
spires overhead. The spirit ever tries
to get out, to ascend, and is exalted in
accordance with its altitude.
Did not Moses at Sinai bring forth
the enduring DecaIogue from the sum.
nit Of a great natural pyramid. rather
than from the gloomy interior of a
temple?
The exceedingly numerous pyramids
throughout ancient Mexico seem to at.
test some exalted idea of a natural re-
ligion which found outlet and habita-
ton in the great Teocallis.-New York

Reinforced concrete during the last
few years has been invading many
fields which hitherto have been con-
sidered as belonging exclusively to
iron and steel. One Of the interesting
illustrations of this fact is the con-
struction of concrete buoy at King
ston. Jamaica.
It is stated that the cost is only
about so per cent of the cost of a
similar buoy made of steel.
To prevent the mooring chain from
injuring the bottom of the buoy the
latter Is made concave. The manhole
cover was grouted into its place after
the buoy was afioat Leakage is han

OAHU WILLSOO
BE TANNED WITH
ARMY OFFICERS

r
Army officers who will be relieved
of assignment to local regiments Sep
TENDER 1, according to recent War De-
partment orders, will have a hard
time getting away from Oahu, and
everything points to one OF the big
gest mix-ups in the history of the
service as regards transportation and
quarters.
The new officers ordered here for
station will arrive some time before
their predecessors leave, and with
dearth of quarters at the various
posts already existing there is likely
to be a merry time.
Yesterday cable message was re-
ceived at department headquarters
saying that there would be no accom-.
modations available on the October
transport. as the comm anolng general
of the Philippines department mad no
tilted Washington that he would re-
quire all available space. This ma
rooms a number of officers who figured
on leaving Oahu on this transport, The
only solution to the trouble seems to
be the running of an extra transport
for a couple OF months, and 1t is the
belief of army officers that this will
be done.

IMPOSSIBLE TO
RbISEBABY FOR
LESS Than $4,000

Richard Snart. the infant son OF
the late Thelma 7. K. Parker Smart.
has been allowed $1,000 yer fo. hts
support, education. etn.. until other
arrangements are made.
Circuit Judge Whitney. acting on q
motion by the law firm Of Thompson
& Milverton, attorneys for the Trent
Trust Company, guardian OF the es-
tate of Richard Smart, yesterday
signed an order to this effect. The
money will be paid to Mrs. Elizabeth
j. knight. grandmother and guardian
OF the Smart infant
The original motion asked that
$1,000 be allowed Mrs. Knight for the
support of the child. Circuit Judge
Whitney, in making the order, cut
this amount down to 5000. Yester-
dsy he amended the order to read
$4,000.
at appears that it is absolutely inn
possible to support the child on less
than $1,000 a year" he said today.
