A COMMUNICATION.

Dear Sir:
Please reproduce in you

communication and oblige.'
Yours truly,
L. j. Bourgeois
Superintendent Pub. Ed.
Hon. I. A. Waddell,
Garyville, La.
Dear Mr.. Waddell:
l am in receipt of your
letter of the 9th inst in which
you inclose excerpt from the last
issue of L'Opservateur charging
you with making the statement
in my office that at the Reserve
fair you had seen drunken peo-
pie and had reported this matter
to the archbishop and Mr.. Harris
You ask if remember any such
statement by you and, also, that
| state to the people of st. John
my recollection of the incident.
In justice to you am forced to
appear before the public much as
| dislike to be mixed in the con-
trovsrsy, l remember clearly.
that in the presence of Messrs.
Alexandra, Abadie, LeRer Lau-
rent and Bodin that you denied
having charged any one with
drunkenness or that you had re-
ported having seen any one drunk
at the fair. What You did say, In
substance, was that intoxicants
were sold and gambling was al.
lowed. It was the letter of Supt.
Harris that made mention of
drunkenness on that occasion,
when / answered Mr.. Harris's let
ter I admitted to him that sever
al parties had reported drunken
ness at the fair.
! trust that this will clear the
record and close the incident. !
Yours very truly,
(Signed) L. J. Bourgeois. |

THE INDIAN SIGN
LANGUAGE.

| AAhite man who visits a for.
eign nation finds 1t hard, and
sometimes impossible. to make
his most ordinary wants known.
The red man has no such Difficult
ty: the problem of q universal
language was solved centuries
/ ago by the savage inhabitants of
this Western world.
Should an Indian from north.
ern Alaska go to Patagonia, he
could by means of this universal
language converse with his
southern brethren almost as east
ly as he could with his neighbors
at home, That would also be the
case If he visited Central America
or met the tribesmen of our own
Western praires and mountains.
When this language was in.
vented no one knows, but every
Indian learns it in addition to his
own Recently two chief of diff
ferent tribes met in the Geogra-
phicaI Society rooms in Washing
ton and held a conversation that
lasted nearly three hours, and
yet neither one knew q word of
the others language.
This universal language is of
course made up of signs. For
example, if an Indian is passing
througha a strange country and
sees other Indians at a distance,
he makes the peace sign; that
is, he holds up his blanket by
two corners so that it covers his
whole figure. The same thought
is expressed by extending the
hands, palms outward, slightly
inclined from the face. Any In
dian would understand either one
Of these signs.
Then there are the abstract
signs by which these 'savaees"
can express their thoughts with |
regard to the Great Spirit. hea-
ven. good, evil, life and death, |
sickness, health, riches and pow.
erty. Life IS expressed by draw J
ing an imaginary thread from the |
mouth, and death, by chopping
this thread off. Another sign for |
death is to hold the tips of the
fingers Of one hand against the !
the palm of the other, and let |
them gradually slip downward, |
and atlast drop beneath the palm
Most white people think that
The Indian word Of greeting, |
How" /" is merely the abbrevia-
Eion of the question, How are
you?" But that is not 50.
The word isreally ''aou," which
means brother" or friends. !"
So when he comes up and growls
0ut his seemingly inQuisitive
How, " be is not asking after
your health. but telling ysu that
he Is : friend.

A Light Tale

The II. T.. Grice Drug Co.'s store
presents a very brilliant appearance
now when lighted up, the change in
the electric fixtures, so we are told,
carries with it a very interesting little
story. On turning on the switch, Sat.
urday evening, it was found that one
of the six large lights, which are
anchored on the ceiling, had burned
out. Electrician f. s. CARRIER was
told of the trouble on Sunday morn.
ing, and after considerable argument
and being repeatedly told of the neces.
sity CT a new light being installed at
once, consented to lay aside his re.
ligious vows, and do the job, provid.
ing his assistant, Wire Chief j. A..
Bradford, who, by the way, is another
very devout gentleman, could be pre-
vailed upon to assist. Mr.. Bradford
was interviewed and reluctantly con-
scented to help. The boys began work.
The old light they removed was 100.
candle power, as were the other five
ceiling lights which remained. They
installed 2OO.candle power NADIA
light and when the current was again
turned on, the new light put forth so
much brilliancy, as to make the other
five appear AS candles. 1t was a
plain case of foresight on the part of
Electrician Garber-there was nothing
left for the management of the drug
store to do, but to have all new lights
installed, and Of course, Mr.. CARRIER
landed the job. At any rate, the drug
store now presents very brilliant
appearance, and Electrician CARRIER
has conciusively proven that regard.
