4 Sad Accident.

A fire which destroyed the home
of William Seidel one mile west of
Glyndon last week caused the
death of the four children of the
family and burned the mother so
seriously she is not expected to
live. The fire was caused by a
gasoline stove which was being
used at the time and which was
overturned by one Of the children.
Before the occupants of the house
could be rescued the four children
were so badly burned that they
died on the way to the hospital at
Moorhead, at last reports the
mother was still alive but not ex-
pected to live. If the mother
passes away the entire family with
the exception of the father will
have been wiped out. 1t was one
of the worst tragedies that has
ever occurred in this section. The
victims of the tragedy were we'll
known here, the mother, Mrs.
Seidel, was member of this res
ervation and was the daughter of
Peter Perrault of Mahnomen.
Mrs. Seidel was twice married,
her first husband, Mr.. Charles
Kennedy, was disciplinarian at the
former boarding school here sew
eral years ago, he met his death
by the explosion Of a gasoline
lamp while they were living in
MahnOmen.

The American Indian Magazine.

We are in receipt of the August
number of The American Indian
Magazine, the official organ of the
Society of American Indians. The
new magazine is decided depart.
ure from the publication formerly
issued by the Society and reflects
credit on both the Society and the
publishers. The American Indian
Magazine has a noble object in
view-the emancipation of the In
dian race, and should it continue
the policy in the future as is fol.
lowed in the August number it
will do much to attain this end 1t
has most crediable staff of able
and we'll informed writer's, writer's
who are familiar with the condi-
ton among che red men and the
problems confronting Them Arti-
cles discussing the Indian question
from tie facile pen of such noted
writer's as Mary Roberts Rinebart,
Walter Hough, Stewart Culin,
Clark Wisler and many other
foremost writer's of the day cannot
help but command that attention
which is necessary before the
American Indian will get his full
rights as an American citizen.
The American Indian Magazine is
now on the right trail, and it is
our earnest hope that it will not
sever from it's course and come
under the harmful influence Of the
Indian Bureau, for only in this
way can it ever hope to gain the
object for which it is published.

American Indian Magazine is

indians Will BAN Shimmy,
Fox Trot.
Modern innovations not to Impair Dignity
Of Squaw Dance is Edict.

That the shiny, the fox-trot,
and other innovations must not
impair the dignity of the Squaw
Dance, is the edict Of older mem
bers of the Chippewas of Lac du-
Flambeau reservation in northern
Wisconsin. From mild criticism,
the older members of the tribe
have gradually increased their
opposition. until they have decid-
ed to call for an open council OF
all members to discuss the matter.
In the Squaw Dance, the women
form circle and move around a
circle to the beating of drums.
Stepping out of the circle. an In
dian woman, hands, a man 4 few
beads or any other simple form of
present, which is considered as an
invitation to dance. In turn, he
is privileged to hand some woman
small sum Of money, in lieu OF
present, which is an invitation
for her to join the dance. Dane
ing has been a daily or rather
nightly occurrence on the reserva'
ton during the past few weeks,
and the dances frequently last
until the early hours of the morn
ing.
What the older heads object to,
however, does not seem to be the
consumption Of time, so much as
the disposition Of some Of the
Younger women to put frills Id the
Sguaw dance, in the shape of fox
trotting, and shimmying.- This,
the older ahorigines say, is out of
place in a tribal dance, which has
been danced for untold genera

some of the grandfa,hers, to have

ted her historic daughter to do the
fox trot or the shimmy in the
presence of Hiawattla, the chances
are that be would have gone much
further IN quest of wife, and the
Falls of MiLnebaha would have
been given some other name.
And SO conservatism, in the
shape of few grey heads on the
Lac du FIambeau. reservation, is
bucking modern advances, espec.
tally in the shape of Innovations
in the tribal dances Of the Ojibway
