French He'll" Food was scarce and
great numbers died Of starvation.
Many stories are told Of the m
treatment OF prisoners during the
Civil War and thrilling escapes from
both the Confederate and Union
camps. When the Spanish American
War came on the captured Spaniards
we're sent TO the various American
army camps and made 50 comfortable
that tho Spanish officers declared that
their men were so we'll treated and
so we'll fed that they grew fat and
lazy and were loathe to leave their
prison"
The Spaniards. too. captured few
Americans. among them Captain Rich
mond Pearson Hobson. who sank the
collier Merrlmac IN the Santiago har-
Dor. Captain Hobson and his seven
companions clung to a raft after their
mission had been accomplished and
were picked up by the>Spanish and
taken to Admiral Cervera's flagship as
prisoners. They were well treated
in fact Captain Hobson was enter
tanned more like a guest than an
enemy
During tho Bocr war the English

concentration camps were managed

a matter of guess work. Unless
WhP deposits Of gold. silver, copper,
iron and other metals were Indicated
by great lodges of ore jutting on sur

blind search involved expenses from

For there was no certainty that sink
Ing of costly prospecting shafts and
driving OF long tunnels would result
in the finding Of rich mineral deposits.
But in recent years great change
has developed. Machines that bore

employed TO prospect ground thought

borings indicate the actual value Of
the orebodies before an inch Of costly

The boring machines. called dia-
mond, churn, or core drills, consist

so many conflicting stories as

Such conflicts as a rule produce a
more bitter and revengeful feeling
among the civilians than exists on the
part Of the soldiers themselves. These
non-combatants coniure up all sorts
OF hardships to which their country

the wars Of years ago the prisoners
were not housed and fed as tho die

in consequence this feature OF war

consideration and regulation at the

ACROSS IOWA IN t849.

George J. Kellogg, who made the
journey across the plains from Hi,
nois to California during the gold
rush in 1s4S, gives the following
account of his experiences in Iowa
| in pamphlet that has recently
come into the possession of the
State Historical Society of Iowa:
April 5, twenty-one miles to Full
ton, where we crossed the Missis-
sippi Sixty-two California wagons
had crossed ahead of us; roads, bad.
sandy. rocky, or mud to the hub.
One hundred and twenty-one miles
to Iowa City, then the state capital.
April Is shot a wild turkey and a
deer; in Iowa county got stuck in a
slough with almost an empty wagon;
took eleven yoke of cattle to pull
us out. Lay by in Iowa and turned
out our cattle into an unhusked
cornfield, at Is cents per head a
day, for three days. In Polk county
saw a buffalo and an elk. Passed
through Des Moines, May Z; poor
ferry; swan our cattle and came
near losing two yoke in a tree trop;
waited for new ferryboat and the
crowd crossed till midnight. May
10, no wood; cut up an OK yoke;
that night a big storm; our cattle
left us and only recovered them
next day; rain, hail and wind. May

MESA VERDE PROPHETS.

The season so far verities the
weather predictions of the Indians
who occasionally visit the Mesa
Verde National Park in southwestern
Colorado for trading purposes, but
who never stay an hour longer than
is necessary because of their dread
of the little people whom they be
lieve still inhabit, in spirit form, the
prehistoric cliff dwellings that have
made the dances Valley famous the
world over. Last fall the Mesa
Verde prairie dogs deserted their
villages for new ones and the Indians
have been shaking their heads over
it all winter. Rain. much rain,
they say; rain all summer So
far they seem to have predicted
right. .
And now they are again shaking
their heads. Cold, much cold" they
say; bad winter coming" And why?
Because this summer game has been
unusually plentiful on the Mesa Yer
de. Deer are more frequently seen
than for years. Rabbits and hares
are so numerous one can scarcely so
about without seeing them in large
numbers. Coyotes and mountain IL
ons are also unusually plentiful,
which may be explained by the
abundance of the small game on
which they live

THE "TIPPING~ LAW.

The MarshalltOwn Times Republi-
can does not seem to have very great
faith in the new anti-tipping law
This much we can understand in an
editorial appearing this week,-but
Just what the following reference to
Oskaloosa may mean, we are at
loss to know. The Times-RePublican
says:
"On a dining car an observant per-
son noted that every person left a
little change for the waiter-that is
every person observed by this man
did. Simple observance in the ho-
tells and along the street carries out
the assertion that the average man
doesn't know and If he does doesn't
seem TO care whoop in Oskaloosa
for the legal barrier between the tip
pee and the tipper's quarter.
Still. the chances are that the an
lti-tipping law will help Some people
will observe ii because II is law
Some will take advantage Of il be-
cause IL affords escape from paying
lextra for bad service. Some are
lopposed to tipping on principle:
Some believe that the abolition Of
the practice will eventually bring
wages for service to basis OF fair
wage for fair service. And gradu-
ally the custom OF tipping will fail.
When sufficient number OF folks re-
fuse to tip the Law will be enforced.
As things stand, however, the man
who desires to tip is going right on
tipping and the colored boy is TAX
ing his chances with shining worries.
And there you are"

DRAWING THE LINE ON GRIEF.

This paper is strong Tor obituar-
les, as obituaries go, but one which
appeared in an exchange recently
went against the grain. The sub
ject of the highly eloquent production
was a man who had left Barber coun-
! ty owing the Index five or more
plunks on subscription. At the
time of his leaving he was unable to
meet the obligation, but some years
after the account was autlawed he
became possessed Of a gOOdly portion
of this worlds goods. We wasted
considerable quantity of stationery
and postage to impress upon him
that the honorable thing to do would
be to wipe out the little account, but
without effect. And he knew, too,
that the wolf was very close to the
publishers door, even closer than 1t
was to his own in his most dire eX-
tremity, but his heart did not melt.
It is our belief that man who will
not pay a just debt when he is IL
nancially able to do so, is not far re-
moved from a thief, and the good
book informs us that thief shall
not enter the kingdom. 1t is not for
us to judge but when we read that
fine tribute to this man we could not
refrain from thinking a few thoughts.
1t may De well with his soul; let US
hope that it is. But unless there is
a statute of Limitation in the divine
code, as in the terrestrial, we shud-
der for his fate.
The foundation rock of an enduring
religion is to be square with your fell

The SWIMMING POOL.

In the current issue of his Ere
mont Gazette, Editor Norton says:
THE tile factory pond Is be
coming regular summer resort
for the boys of the town. AL
though 1t is all right for the
boys to have their fun, lit is not
altogether right for them TO use
profane language while in the
water. We were passing along
the other day and were truly as
tonished to hear even the small
boys 10 or IL years old using
such profane language as would
be q disgrace to any man"
Mr.. Norton probably never thought
Of Il. but II he had tried he could
not have put up a better argument in
favor OF the proposed swimming pool
at the oskaloosa Y. M. G. A. II
the Improvement Is made the boys
Of 0skaloosa can have all the fun
they want under Influences that will
teach them sobrIety and decency.

given to the physical education of
the younger growing element of this
country. 1t is as important as the
mental education and in fact the
mental education should come after
the foundation of a physical educa-
ton has been firmly laid. Outdoor
exercise, the Boy Scout movement,
rational games and sports are all i'm
portant factors in this education

However much we may differ
as to the exact character of the
causes, this much is certain: That
in this country prosperity has invar-
iably accompanied protection. while
business and industrial depression
have just as invariably gone hand in
hand with free trade" This state
ment, made on the floor of the senate
in September. 1913, by Senator Suth-
erland Of Utah. proves that states
man a true prophet.

New York city and state. The reas-
on is obvious. He wants to get poor
on his own terms. In other words
he wants to acquire poverty, not
have Il thrust upon him.
