INDIANS
HAVE EXPERIENCED
VERY COLD WINTER

Winnipeg, Man, April :S.-Indians
in northern Canada have experienced
the hardest time in their long history
during the past winter and agents on
the various reserves report that hun
dreds have died from epidemice
which Have been raging among
them. The weather having been un-
usually severe and long continued,
the fur yield has in consequence, de-
creased. In the district along the
northern shores Of Lake Winnipeg
the Salteaux have been the worse
sufferers. Ice over four feet thick
and snow. piled as high as the tree
tops. were experienced. This depth
of the snow gives an idea Of the vel
ocity of the winds which prevailed.
Their cattle and horses died Of star
walton as they could not get feed.
The flu made inroads on the popula-
ton and at n village every resi-
dent died, numbering 140 persons.
The yield Of fur has not been so
good as in past years.. owing, to the
migration Of the rabbit extending
over a longer period than in the
past. The fur bearing animals. de
!prived of their usual supply of food,
had forsaken their old haunts and
disappeared no one knows where.
