William H. Hare, then Episcopal
bishop of Dakota, went to Fort
Thompson to preach to the Chris
tian Indians. His coming was
heralded for many days in ad-
vance and brought together the
Indians from all over the reserva-
ton.
The Grass Dancers saw an op.
portunity to cause trouble and
likewise congregated in. the vicin-
ity f'the fort. The small rough
chapel could not contain the great
crowd who had come to hear Bish-
op Hare, so a large semi-circle
was formed just outside and when
the bishop arrived he was escorted
to the chapel steps from which be
was to speak.
On the outskirts of the crowd
were gathered the Grass Dancers,
led by Truth Teller, who carried
his immense drum. The Christian
Indians expected trouble, and as
the bishop commenced to preach
their fears we're augmented by
Truth Teller, who came pressing
through the throng, showing all
who we're in his way to right or
left until he stood at the steps of
the chapel. Here he halted, un-
'slung his drum and meekly de-
livered it to the bishop with the
admission that be surrendered to
God.
The multitude were astonished
at this sudden turn of events. The
Grass Dancers retreated but Bish-
OPP Hare, in perfect control of the
situation accepted Truth Teller's
drum and quietly placed it inside
of the chapel before he continued
bis sermon.

blanket, had his hair cut in white

Early Day Incident
Recalled by Clock
Minnesotan Presents Relic Once Awarded
Indian TO Dakota Historical Society.

Through the courtesy of Col.
Sam Brown, of Browns Valley,
Minnesota, the South Dakota his
torical society has come into pos
session of what is probably one of
the most unique clocks in the
state and one which had an inter.
esting connection with certain
incident in the early history of
Dakota territory.
About the time of the Indian
uprising in the late '7O's there was
a large number of Yanktonias |iv-
ing on the Crow creek reservation
in the territory surrounding Fort
Thompson. Many of these In
dams had assimilated the white
mans religion and we're 10 a way
living semi-Christian lives, How
ever, there was a large group who
resented the coming of the whites
and particularly their teachings of
Christianity. These people be-
looged to heather sect known as
the Lodge of the Grass Dancers.
They were the trouble makers of
the district, always ready to stir
up their red brothers.
This group lad as their leader a
young buck, a powerfully built
fellow who was known by the
name of Truth Teller. Truth
Teller held the position of Master
of the Drum which was the SYM
Dol of the sect.

The summer outing of the
Northern Minnesota Editorial as
ISOLATION at Itasca park, August
9 to 10, was an occasion which
combined the pleasures of camp
life with those of social nature
and proved an event that will
linger long in the memories of the
scribes in attendance.
The program opened with an
open air banquet at Park Rapids

From Park Rapids the editors

So called full blood and dependent
element of the Minnesota Chippe-
was are slowly, miserably so,
a most lamentable exist
ence from starvation and disease.
The gaunt spectre of the white
plague, aggravated by trachoma
and kindred disease, improper and
paltry mourishment, will, in a
very few years, wipe out of ex'
istence the last living vestage of
the full blood Chippewa Indian.
Most of this class of people are
today living in isolated sections of
the reservation. Their homes,
for the most part, consisting OF
dingy. novels, scree,less, with
little or no ventilation and practi-
cally devoid OF even the faintest
of sanitation, with little
or no food and their drinking
water supply taken from the
nearest shallow pond or mud hole.
Here too, little children, if there
be any, are being reared in the
midst of foul surroundings and
become the ready prey of disease
and immoral degradation. y
1t is reported that in a recent
tour of the reservation was reveal
ed most appalling conditions ex-
isting among the poor, lowly, dis
tresscd and neglected members of
the dependent class mentioned
above. AS an illustration of the
condition prevailing
niention is made of a family living
In an isolated portion of the res
their home a miserable
howell. The family consisted of
the wife, two or three children,
the youngest a baby a baby a few
weeks old, and an old man, the
grandfather, the husband was
absent, endeavoring to earn means
to feed his family. The woman
was seriously afflicted with con-
sumption and was confined to her
bed, consisting of q scant supply
of filthy rags as also was hers and
the children clothing. There
was no furniture in the house of
any description; a rude coarse
table, minus table cloth, occupied
a corner of the room and on this
rested a few broken dishes and a
tin cup or two. The old man was
nearly blind with trachoma. A
scant supply of bread made of
-four and water, yellow with saler-
atus, was the only visable supply
of food at hand. There was two
empty fruit cans near the woman's
be6 and into which she expector'
ated. Swarms of flies infested
the grim interior of the room and
the insect pests we're busy feeding
on the sputum in the cans and
then resting and wiping their
filthy feet and legs on the scanty
,morsels of food laying on the rude
table. A more detected picture
of want, misery and neglect could
not be imagined.
