FRANK NORTH, WHITE CHIEF
OF THE PAWNEES"

Only once in history did Indians
succeed in wrecking M of the white
mans iron horses" and this occurred
in 1867 when a band of Cheyennes
ditched a freight train on the Union
Pacific near Plum Creek. Neb. A
strange scene followed. Among the
loot which the sayages took from
the wrecked cars were hundreds of
hol,, of calico. In a sportiye mood,
the young warriors tied the ends of
the calico to their poines' tails. Then
they went %careening over the prairie,
the long ave of many-colored cloth
billowing and floating behind them.
While the C%heyennes were still en-
joying this sport, from the surround
ing hills dashed a band of mounted
Indians led by a white mar of sol
,lierly bearing. When the C~heyennes
saw him charging down upon them,
they fed In every direction, crying

The White Chief Of the PawneeF"
Mai. Frank North was the white
Chief of the Pawnees." He had lived
among them and they loved him. They
adopted him into the tribe, calling him
Pawnee La Share. This meant great
chief of the Pawnees" and chief even
of the Pawnee chiefs. No other
Pawnee and only one white man, Gen,
John c. Fremont, ever held that title,
Major North enlisted his first Pawnee
scouts in 1864, and in every war on
the plains thereafter they did valiant
service.
The scouts were issued regulation
blue uniforms, but they had their W
ideas about how to wear them. A full
dress parade was an amusing sight

PET SNAKES GUARD GEMS
Paris Sisters Trying to Rob Their
Host Are Brought to Grief.

nv oioNS's ~
There was a serpent in the case
when three sisters, Angelina, Marie and
FRANCHISE were invited by a young AL
cerian to dine with him in a private
room at Montparnasse.
The three sisters, freqnenters of
Paris night resorts, piled their gener-
Gus host so literally with champagne
thst he fell asleep. They then re-
lieyed him of his money, watch and
iewelry.
This done, one of the sisters noticed
that the Algerian had brought home
with him a large wickerbasket, which
was standing in the corner Of the
room. She opened 1t and a large snake
poked its head out. A moment later
two more snakes came out and began
kissing.
The girls ran screaming from the
room and the Algerian woke up in time
to find his strange pets investigating
the fruit dishes on the table. The po-
lice were promptly summoned and the
three sisters are now in prison.

FIND MAST0DON TUSKS
Scientists Think Kansas County Was
Once Stamping Ground.

"Was Pratt county, Kan, at one
time the grazing ground for masto-
dons?"
Such is the question the citizens
of the county are asking themselves.
A fragment of a tusk 10 inches in d.
ameter was found a few days ago
while digging a ditch. and Prof. Rufus
Gray of the Pratt high school be-
lieyes it is from a giant mastodon, a
skeleton of which vas found 30 years
ago in the same neighborhood.
The ribs of this skeleton were II
feet across, Indicating a height of %
feet or more. This skeleton, accord
ing to old-ttne citizens, was found In
nearly the same spot as the tusk was
found.

DOWN ON THE FARM

The thing of living In the country
is great.
First, all you need is a place to
live in; and then a horse and a COW
and some pigs and chickens.
Then. all you need is some feed for
the horse and COW and pigs and chick
ems, and a strong
But that's next? A strong man to
feed them.
Then you need to read all the farm
er books and government bulletins
and learn just how things should be
done.
Then you need the nerve to GO and
tell your man how to do everything,
and the courage to watch him do 1t
another way and ignore your instruc-
tons. After that, all you need is the
gall to pretend that you did 1t. when
a bean comes up the way 1t was in
tended.
But with all that, it's the life; and
a fellow could stand 1t II 1t wasn't
for the mortgage and paying the man
and buying the feed.

SOME MINES OF BUTTE
HAVE CLOSED DOWN

Recent reports from Butte state
that the Mountain View mine of the
Anaconda has closed down on ac-
count of the scarcity of labor and
that the other two mines Of hat dis
trict will close in a short time unless
more men can be secured. The high
wages paid for labor in the oil fields
of Montana and the heavy demand
for men in automobile manufacturing
centers. it is stated, makes 1t hard
to secure men for the mines Of Butte.
The automobile manufacturers. it is
said, are pulling men from the min
ing centers of Michigan. Thousands
of men, it is said, left the copper
camps of Michigan during the past
two years and have found employ
ment elsewhere and are not return
ing to the mines.

KEY PITTMAN FOR
STATES SENATOR

Key Pittman has filed his declara-
ton of candidacy at the Primary cleo
ton to be held on the 5th day of
September next for the Democratic
nomination for the Office of United
States Senator from Nevada. Mr..
Pittman has served the people Of this
State in the United States Senate for
nearly two terms with marked abil-
ity and with general satisfaction. His
record in the Senate has been com
mended and endorsed by the Demo-
cratic Convention which met at Reno
on June 9th last, and he now seeks
the endorsement of his record by
the rank and file Of the Democracy of
our State.
The following endorsement of Sem
ator Key Pittman is a part Of the
Democratic platform adopted at Reno
at the State Convention on June 81,
1922:
1--WE commend and endorse the
record of United States Senator Key
Pittman during his entire service for
two terms in the United States SEN
ate.
He has faithfully and successful
ly represented every interest in the
State.
1--WE particularly commend him for
his services in obtaining the passage
of the Pittman Act, which alone sus-
tanned the silver mining industry and
other mining industries dependent
upon the production of silver the past
three years, and which will continue
to sustain the industry for years 10
come.
I'VE also commend him for the fol-
lowing outstanding Acts: For the
passage of the Pittman irrigation
Act; for his successful efforts in fore
ing the consideration and passage
of the road bill, which compelled the
Federal government to put up $87 to
the States $13 for the building of
State roads; for his support of the
War Finance Corporation Act extend
ing the time wherein the Government
could lend money for the use of the
farmers of the State; for his untir-
ing and able efforts to do away with
the determinations by the railroad
companies against the State under
the so-called long-and-short haul; for
his opposition to the Esch-Cummins
railroad BILL"

ADDITIONAL LOANS
GRANTED STOCKMEN

Winnemucca Star: Senator j.
sheehan manager of the northern Me-
vada Loan Association. subsidiary to
the war finance board, has received
formal notice from Washington OF
the favorable action on applications
taken by him to San Francisco on
June goth for preliminary approval
by the western branch of the war f.
nance board. Sanction was given by
San Francisco authorities and the
final favorable disposition was made
in the National Capital. The rapid
ity with which the loan applications
were handled shows splendid organi-
cation on the part of the authorities
entrusted with the task of aiding the
country's essential industries.
Involved Ii the second lot of loan
applications from northern Nevada
is the sum of $4,000, which is add
ed to the $265,5OO to make the sum
in Federal monies that has gone into
the livestock industry served by the
Northern Nevada Loan Association.
Senator Sheehan advises hat the
third lot of loans will not be acted
upon before September LIST inasmuch
as cattle and sheep are now spread
over the Summer feeding grounds,
presenting some difficulties in effect
ing counts and classification.

DIES IN THE POOR HOUSE

A recent press dispatch from Boon
Vile. Mo-, records the death, in the
poorhouse al that place, of Henry w
Widdicombe, who was best man al
the wedding Of Mark Hanna. No
details are given of the life history
of this man, but 1t is to be presumed
that he must have been a person OF
considerable consequence in his best
days. The next friends of Mark
Hanna generally were.
In this world of change. ups and
downs of fortune are very common.
This circumstance furnishes one of
the main reasons for prudence in the
handling of business affairs. 1t il
Illustrates the value of the idea of car
rying life insurance. AS age advanc-
ed the earning powers diminish, and
the need of support increases. Pru-
dence dictates that every man should,
in his days of highest productivity,
lay away a nestegg for a rainy day,
the San Francisco Journal says.
There is NO better way to do this
than by the purchase of life in
surance. 1t is no longer necessary to
die to win. All good companies Of
the old line have many forms of pol
icy. some Of which provide endow-
ment insurance payable to the hold
er in installments, or otherwise, dur
ing his lifetime when he needs It.
Such an investment cannot be swept
away except by the deliberate act of
the insured.
II Henry Widdicombe had put
away a generous sum In endowment
life insurance in the days when he
was IN associate of Mark Hanna he
would not have died in the poor
house. A sermon could be preached
on that text to every may in the
world.
Not all the safeguards against ad-
versity should be of the same kind.
Any man would be foolish to put
all his earnings into life insurance,
but every man is foolish who does
not invest some of them in that way.
No other investment furnishes a like
degree of protection. While other
ventures may collapse in the event
of death. this one natures and pays
its full dividend for the support of
dependent ones. No man is too rich
or too poor TO buy life insurance.
The poorer he is the more he needs
it. and the richer he is the better
the investment. Both the banker
and the laborer carry life insurance
II they are enterprising and prudent
men. You cannot 20 wrong on that.
