North American wild life in prehis-
toric times A portion Of the COM
munication has been made public by
the society in the following bulletin:
1.-THE original buffalo herds have
been estimated to have contained
from 100000 to $4,000, 900 ami
mails, (the latter figure is 100000
greater than the total number of cat

the census of 1910 and in 1870 it
was estimated that about 5,5OO,0 900
still survived--exceeding by 1,40O,-
600 the number of mules in the
United States in 1910. A number of
men now living were privileged to see
some of the great herds of the West
before they were finally destroyed.
DR.. George Bird Grinnell writes:
"'In 1870 l happened to be on a
train that was stopped for three
hours to let a herd of buffalo pass.
We supposed they would soon pass by
but they kept on coming. On a
number of occasions in earlier days
the engineers thought that they
could run through the herds and that,
seeing the locomotive, the buffalo
would stop to turn aside; but after a
few locomotives had been ditched by
the animals the engineers got in the
way of respecting the buffaloes'
'idiosyncracies.'
Astonishing as was the number of
which roamed the plains Of
old. even more numerous were the
antelope, though the latter did not
as much attention as the
mammals. Besides these the
chroniclers of the colonial days give
many interesting accounts of the in
number of other wild ami
mails, including bears, wapiti, white
tailed deer and turkeys, on which the
wolves made fierce war. One writ

A REMINDER.

(rToIn ". N. SCHOOL,
People, do you know we're fighting
With the Germans-they are fierce
But we hope to win the victory:
Thru their limbs the shots will
pierce.
Our dear boys are now at war;
Maybe them no more we'll see.
For the cause they're fighting for
Is mystery to you and me.
Our dear brothers they are fighting
In the mud up to their knees;
They are fighting just like lightning
Far across the deep blue seas.
How we long for their returning;
They'll be glad to see us too;
To America they'll be coming
When the war is fought clear thru
We must help to whip the Kaiser;
He's the one that caused the row
And We'll win if we get wiser
And the women run the pillow.

INDIANS HAD FINE MEETING.
Preaching Services and Sunday
School Have Invited Guests.

Sunday was red letter day for the
North Fork Indian Presbyterian
Church and Sunday School. An invi-
tation had been extended the Orofino
Christian Sunday School to visit
them in the afternoon, and several
auto and wagon loads accepted and
attended. James Dixon, noted In
dian preacher, who has been holding
special meetings at Ahsahka, and 9th.
er prominent Indian Christians from
kamiah. were in attendance. also a
Miss Crawford, a missionary, who
was sent out by the Presbyterians.
The church was crowded to capac-
ity, about 100 being Indians. Rev.
Dixon baptised one Indian woman
and two babies. following which the
sunday School lesson was discussed
Harry Wheeler, superintendent, lead
ing. Short talks were made by a
number of the Indians, also by some
of the white people.
The Indians have the distinction
of having the only church building in
Ahsahka, and no community could
take greater pride or interest in a
house of worship. Inside and out the
church building is neat and clean,
and well furnished The pulpit is
carpeted. also the choir platform, and
fine parlor organ, presided over
Sunday by an Indian girl, gives a
touch of refinement to the place.
Hanging lamps and large. we'll kept
heating stove. bright with polish,
makes it most inviting, and a credit
to these people. The pews are home
made, but are of neat design and
nicely painted. The floor was white
and clean as pine floor can be made
with soap and water.
The International graded Sunday
School lessons are used, and lesson
leaves and Bibles seemed plentiful,
as well as Joy To The World" song
books
But the thing that most impressed
the visitors was the sincere Christian
spirit everywhere manifest by the In
dlans. And this is all the more re-
markable when one remembers that
only few years ago these same peo-
pie were wild natives. In the time
of Indians yet living they have ac-
quired civilized ways, and show as
much culture as their white broth
ers. Christianity has been the civil
iZing power that has brought this
wonderful transformation, and the
work is going on.
Many of these Indians speak excel
lent English, and their enunciation Is
as distinct as any of the whites. No.
need any race feel ashamed when II
can produce a preacher like James
Dixon. Sunday night he preached /.
temperance sermon, subject that Il
near to the heart of this man, who
has seen the ravageS of the drinL
curse among Indians after fought
white element come among the Ne,
Perces, and demoralized so many OF
the tribe. Mr.. Dixon has seen tn,
ruin OF intemperance. and the top
ic fres him to top speed when h,
breaches temperance to his people.
The Orofino visitors were well pait
for their trim. and enjoyed the ser
