TOM THUNDER, AN
HONEST FARMER.

Tom 1I1nder, Winnebago, who was
headliner in the daily papers some
years back when his ambition was
to be chief of the tribe, is now en-
joying life as an honest farmer. This
from the Black River Falls Journal:
Thomas Thunder, erstwhile Tom
Thunder, titular chief of the Wiscon-
sin Winnebagoes, is now cOmfortab-
ly at home in a nice new house on his
farm about three miles northwest of
the city on the Alma Center trunk
line. Tom has discovered during the
lapse of years that the emoluments
of the chieftancy of his tribe were
neither commensurate with its dig
nifty nor sufficient to meet the mod
ern high cost Of living, so he has
entered the ranks of the producers
in order to increase his allotment as
consumer. He has wandered over
the plains and valleys, traced out
trout streams from source to mouth,
and in his mind gained a fine impress
sion of the physical geography of
western Wisconsin. He has acquaint-
ed himself with the natural haunts
of the wolf, the deer and the musk
rat, and bagged his game of every
kind as the years went on. But with
the years creeping along, his VEN
turesome spirit has tanned and mel
lowed, the hinges of his knees have
begun to feel an occasional twinge
of rheumatism, and the longing for
a home near the wildwood, where
peace reigns and plenty for the pot
and kettle may be obtained through
the sweat of his honest effort.
