AMERICANS KNOWN
NOW AS "PRICERS'

London. (By Mail)-Americans
in London. who used to enjoy rep
utation for always putting their
hands Into their pockets" are now
accused of keeping their hands on
their pockets"
This endears them, rather than
otherwise, to the hearts of the hard
up London ers. who for years have
held that "a fellow feeling makes us
wondrous kind"
But the storekeepers have other
views A salesman in the Burling-
ton Arcade. deploring the absence of
that fat roll of notes he has always
associated with American purchasers,
said:
'Americans have no money this
season. They hardly do anything
hut ask the price of things. 1t is the
rShtinental who have the money.
I'VE have sold more to French and
Spanish visitors in the last month
than to Americans in the whole sea-
son. The Continentals are full of
Money" Therefore the Continentals
reap the salesman's smiles
Now that the Eiglishman knows
the American as "pricer' it adds to
the bond of friendship. for pricing
the goods is about as far as the av-
erage Englishman's purchases ever
get.

WEATHERED AFFIDAVIT
NOW CLEARS WHITE MEN
(BY+ United Press J

Regina, Sask., Sept. 16.-Soaked
by the rains, buried beneath the
SHOWS and blown about the prairies
by the winds of thirty-five years, a
document which settles a point that
history leaves in doubt has just been
found near Regina.
1t is an affidavit sworn to by Cor
poral Hugh j. A. Davidson of the
Royal Northwest Mounted Police and
affirms that the first shot of Louis
Riel's second rebellion in 1885 was
fired by his halfbreed followers. Some
writers have contended that the
whites precipitated the conflict that
drenched western Canada in blood.
The first battle OF the war fought
at Duck Lake, village near the
North Saskatchewan river at the
northern limit of the lands which
were left by Canada to the Hudson
Bay company in 1870 and are now
being closed out to farm settlers Ma
jor Crozier in command of eighty set
tiers and Northwest Mounted Police
fell in near the little settlement with
greatly superior force of rebels.
While a parley was being held be-
tween the leaders, firing began. The
fighting lasted an hour. Tie half
breeds fed on their horses, carrying
away seven wounded but leaving -
dead on the field.
Riel's victory caused the Indians to
join the instruction. But it also
sounded his own death knell The
settlers rose in defense of their
homes, troops hurried from the east
and the rebellion was crushed. Riel
was hanged at Regina
Speaking like voice from the
grave. Corporal Davidson swears in
his affidavit that the first shot came
from one Of Riel's halfbreeds crouch
ing in the wolf willows and whistled
past his head. Until Major Crozier
gave the order,' he says, mo shot
was fired by any Of our party"
The weather. beaten old affidavit
was sworn to before Stephen Brewst-
err. a notary pubic at Prince Albert,
May 30. 1885. Despite wind and
weather. it is still quite legible. If,
as is supposed. it was lost at Prince
Albert. it had travelled ESQ miles
when its wind-blown journeyings
ended at Regina.
