TrUpeIette
By Niksah. ZUNI RUNNERS.
ready for the trenches with mask

A few weeks ago, the tribe of the Zunis held their great annual cere monial feasts and dances at their pu- eblo in western New Mexico. For all most the first time a number of tour ists penetrated the 40 miles that lie be- tween the pueblo and. the railroad to witness the ceremonies and as result the Zuni are beginning to be known to fame. Long familiar to students of ethnology, their peculiar talents are quite unknown to the general public.
 The Zuni Indians are probably the greatest runners the world has ever seen. Their feats in this direction are such that any man who would try to recount them all would inevitably lose his reputation for veracity. But in looking at the lean brown boy who will run down a wild horse or a deer and hardly lose his breath over it, one must remember that the lad has not only been trained to run from the time he could first stand on his little feet with out tumbling down, but his training really began a thousand years ago. He comes of trible that has specialized in running since long before Columbus was born
 Most of the southeastern Indians are noted as horse" Indians-the Coman- SHSS, tHe ApdcneS ana the NaVa1OS. The Zuni never cared for horses. They preferred their own legs. The young men Of the trie can outrun any horse. if the distance be only long enough. When Marathon races were popular a lew years ago an American took two Zunls and entered them in a 20-mile race Tn a little southwestern city. They passed their white competitors so often on half mile circular track that all of the white men dropped out before the race was half oyer. The Indians. running against tinfe, just failed to break the worlds record for the dis tance, to the great disappointment of their American manager. "The dis tance is too short" he said. If it was 40 miles, 1 know they'd break it. and Ill 60-mile run there's nobody in the world could stay near them" Al which his friends laughed unbelieving- ", but he was telling something not lar from the truth at worst
 One method the Zuni practice for keeping. in trim is their tribal sport which was witnessed for the first time by number of Americans at the re cent ceremonies. This game is known | as "kick-the-s stick and is a sort of hockey played with the bare feet. The stick is a bit of wood three or four inches long,. and each team tries fir
 kick it down long course to a goal | So expert are the players and so fast l do they travel. that number of spec 1 tatorS wore out their horses trying tc keep up with the game.

RED CROSS RUNS
 RELIEF BUREAU

CAMP LEWIS, Tacoma, Wash Feb. | 23.-A bureau for military relief is maintained here by the American Red Cross organization under the di- rect management of w. R. Van Valen l who is assistant to Field Director Arthur G. Prichard, a Tacoma banker. MT. Van Valen is assisted in his work by his wife who takes an equal in terest in the duties. With their small daughter the Van Valens reside in hut near the center of the cantonment. They are always at the service of the soldier.
 An idea of the relief accomplished by the local bureau is obtained from the official report submitted for the | month of January. Disposition was made of fifty-five relief cases where in aid was given relatives and families of soldiers. Fifty eight were classified as general relief, such as suffering by reason of delay in re- ceiving allotments, temporary sick ness and lack of funds to meet pay ments on homes. Free medical at tention was secured for the wives of eight soldiers. Three necessary op- erations were performed on relatives of enlisted men at no expense to the latter.
 Six of the cases pertained to busi- ness problems which required legal attention or the advice of efficiency men in different lines. These cases were scattered throughout the west and several were covered in the central states. In urgent cases ar engagements for relief are quickly made by telegraphic instruction in event those needing, it live at a distance
 Besides attending to the cases hav- ing to do with the relieving of the minds of the men, the Red Cross accomplished much toward making them physically comfortable. On the approved requests of company com manders the soldiers were presented with 11,505 sweaters, 2,676 pairs of socks made of knitted wool, 5,063 pairs of wristlets and S55 mufflers. Tn the same period 16,210 sweaters. 2,044 pairs of socks, 6.757 pairs of wristlets and 2,355 mufflers were re- ceived from the various Red Cross chapters of the west for distribution.
 Shipments of knitted wooden articles valued at $20,000 and upwards are constantly being received and since the bureau was opened the disburse- ments have aggregated several hun
 dred thousand dollars in this canton ment alone At Christmas every of ficer and enlisted man was the recipi- ent of a package from the Red Cross containing many useful articles.
 The affairs of the bureau are con- ducted entirely in accordance with business methods. The assistant di- rector is bonded and his report must
 account for every article passing l through the local warehouse.

WASHINGTON ATE
 CORN MEAL CAKES
fKansas City Starr

There was no wheat shortage In America when George Washington was wealthy Virginia planter, before the Revolution, yet that eminent patriot set an example in the conservation of flour which citizens of today would do well to follow.
 Wheat is not essential to satisfying meal, the food administrator points out. Corn is an excellent substitute. The following excerpt from 1rving's Life of Washington" is interesting now in view of the agitation for wheatless diet.t
 He was an early riser. often before daybreak in the winter when the nights were long. He breakfasted at in sum- mer at in winter. Two small cups of tea and three or four cakes of In- dian meal (called hoe. cakes) formed his frugal repast."
 It is said that even in the days of plenty, big spreads were an infrequent occurrence in Washington's home

SEND BACK DEAR
 DADDY" NEW HIT

Alex. Sullivan. the New York sport ing writer, is the proud possessor of letter from Joseph r. Tumulty. Presi- dent Wilson's secretary. thanking him, in behalf of the nations chief execu- tive. for the copy of his song. Send Back Dear Daddy to Me" MT. Tumulty declared that President Wilson desired to thank Sullivan for sending him the first copy of the big hit.
 "Send Back Dear Daddy to Me" is now the most popular song in New York. It is march war ballad, telling the story of a child's appeal to Uncle Sam to win the war, so that she can have her daddy back home with her.
 Some good judges have already de- clared that this song is the catchiest that has ever been written on a war topic. It is recorded on all the leading phonographs and mechanical pianos.

THE YAQuIS.

The CarranZa government reports itself as in practically complete con- trol of Mexico. save for a small por- ton of the north where Villistas are operating, and the Yaqui country. The 1aquis recently made their way into the columns of the newspapers again by the massacre of several defenseless foreigners. Apparently not wishing to bring Mexican neutrality into question. they killed both Americans and Ger mans as well as other aliens. The story of the Yaquis is a 400-year -old long chronicle of battle, murder and sudden death.
 They were one of the first tribes encountered by the Spanards. when the conquistadores marched northward from Mexico City in the first part of the sixteenth century. The descrip- ton given by the chronicler of that first expedition fits them today. He writes that they were brave. treacher- ous. cruel, enduring, and absolutely nm Willing to submit to any form of Span- lsh domination. He also gives fhen- credit for being the best fighters ot yall the warlike tribes of Mexico. Inas. much as they successfully charref cannon which they saw for tho frs, time on that occasion, and inflicted 2 defeat on the Spanards and their al, lies. they probably earned the prajse the old historian gave them.

OUTLAWS V|CTORS
 OVER WHITE SOX

The to victory of the Phoenix Outlaws over the White Sox at East lake park yesterday afternoon evened up the score in the first two tilts of the five-game series. One win each is accredited to the respective aggre- gations.
 Indicating a growing interest in the series was the good crowd which at tended. The two teams meet again next Sunday at Eastlake park. The game was unusually fast throughout, and the feature was undoubtedly the tilt between the pitchers, while Testers, first baseman for the White Sax, did some excellent fielding. The score:

If there be an exception, it's community should see to it's correction.

superior court room with Deputy
Sheriff Montgomery on the next
bench was Sonora Josepha Callazo
Elsario with a beautiful little girl
about two years old in her lap and
playing at her knee with smiles for
all who noticed her.
On one side of the sonora sat her
sharp eyed, strong mother, without
the suggestion of smile on her face.
and on the other side sat Senior Jose
Elsario, also smiling broadly and al
ways looking pleasant, although he
had made affidavit that he was a
much wronged husband.
Senior Jose wanted to make up
with his wife The mother-in-law did
not desire a reconciliation. Sonora
EIsario wanted to know who told the
lie that she had been too intimate
with Senior Marcellino Sanchez, and
why she had to go to jail. Her
mother, who keeps a big boarding
house in Chicago, had accompanied
her and the deputy sheriff to Keokuk.
Sonora Elsario went to the county

she waived examination and was
bound over to the grand jury.

A Dead Stomach
Of What Use Is It?

Thousands? yet hundreds of thou
sands of people throughout America
are taking the slow death treatment
daily.
They are numbering their own
stomach, the best friend they have,
and in their sublime ignorance they
think they are putting aside the laws
of nature.
This is no sensational statement;
it is a startling fact, the truth of
which any honorable physician will
not deny.
These thousands of people are
swallowing daily huge quantities of
pepsin and other strong digesters.
made especially to digest the food in
the stomach without any aid at all
from the digestive membrane of the
stomach.
Mona stomach tablets relieve dis
tressed stomach in five minutes; they
do more. Taken regularly for a few
weeks they build up the run down
stomach and make it strong enough
to digest its own food Then indi-
gestion, belching, sour stomach and
headache will go.
-hi-o-na stomach tablets are sold by
druggists everywhere, who guarantee
them.

ment

The Fort Madison Democrat carries
a story Of the experiences there OF
Mrs Jennie e Sterling. wife Of d
soldier in France. who has allotted to
her sufficient money which a bad man
Systematically tried to get away from
her.
The story is, that when the wom-
an receives a remittance. always over
800 from the war department. the
man gets her drunk to get her money.
Chief Kennedy found her intoxicated
with the man and stopped his game
the second time. The first time she
lost s1O4, and the second remittance
was S120. The man was in the county
Jail, until he was chased out of town.
Mrs. Sterling went from Keokuk to
Fort Madison and secured work in a
restaurant there. After losing her first
allotment. she appealed to the Red
Cross which aided her.
She is said to be twice as old as her
husband, who is in the aviation service
over there, and they were married as
the result of a chance meeting, going
to Des Moines on their wedding trip.
She promised the police to leave Fort
Madison at once.
