CHIEF WEATHERFORD-A PAGE
OF BLOODY HISTORY

T ATE in the summer of 1913 the
- whole country was stunned by the
news of terrible Indian massacre at
Fort Mimms Ala. only a year before
had occurred the slaughter at Fort
Dearborn, but compared to the horror
at Fort Minus, tile Illinois tragedy
geemed insignificant. OF garrison of
275 men, women and children, only II
escaped alive
The leader In this massacre was the
Greek chief Red Eagle damOchattee)
commonly known as Weatherford, a
half-breed, who had inherited the
worst qualities of both races.
An army of 5000 men was put in
the field under Gen. Andrew jackson
to punish the Creeks. He made them
pay dearly for Fort Mimms. At Tai
lushatches 200 Creek warriors died.
At Talladega they lost 500 more.
At the Holy Ground" natural for
tress on the Alabama river, Weather.
ford was the last to leave the field.
His capture seemed certain. Sudden
" he turned his horse to a cliff where
there was a sharp drop of Is feet to
the river. The chief galloped to the
brink and In one great leap horse and
rider dropped into the river. Disap-
pearing beneath the water, then
emerging, they swan to safety.
After suffering several defeats, the
Greeks prepared to make their last
stand at Tohopeka or the Great
Horseshoe Bend of the Tallapoosa
river. Here on March n, 1874, Jack
son attacked them. The battle was
one Of the bloodiest In Indian history.
Weatherford lost 600 warriors. the
flower Of the Creek nation. His pow
or was broken. Soon afterward the
Indians sued for peace. One Of the
conditions imposed by Jackson was
that Weatherford should be shackled
and delivered to him. Rather than
suffer such degradation, the chief an
nounced that he would surrender vol
unfairly.
A few days later an Indian walked
into Jackson's tent. Il am Weather

he said. II desire peace for my pe0-
ple and have come to ask 1t. am In
your power; do with me as you
please" Il wish to take no advantage
OF you," replied "Old Hickory" "You
may return to your tribe and continue
the war. But If you are taken You
shall receive no quarter"
ssYou can safely address me in such
terms now" was Weatherford's digni-
fed reply. II could once animate my
warriors to battle, but can not ami
mate the dead. ask for peace only
for my nation. You will find me The
strictest enforcer of obedience to your
terms Weatherford kept his word. \
and until his death March 8, 1924, he
held his nation at peace.

the center of the kimon0 sleeve, and
on the sash. Leave the neckline and
the body Of the blouse absolutely plain.
and let the embroidery on sleeve and
sash be as splendid as you can make 1t.
The kimono sleeve should extend be-
low the embroidery almost to the
wrist, so that it drapes and fops about
the arm, lifted or lowered-this is fash

A stunning tunic blouse is Of black
satin meteor with broad bands of en-
broidery-perhaps nine inches wide
around the center Of the sleeve and on
the ends of the wide sash which Is
looped over once and falls with heav-
lily fringed ends at one hip. The en-
broidery is done with darning stitch
lines of pale gray and white silk floss
and silver threads. Here and there are
triangular appliques Of gray duvetyn.

Hat and Dress in Crepe de Chine,

Hat and Dress in Crepe de Chine.
The soft, gracefully falling dresses
Of silk which are so much the vogue
are prettiest when they are made Of
crepe de chine. Sometimes it is a
good plan to weight portions of the
dress where it droops and where the
dropping falls into points. This spe-
cial weave Of silk naturally takes
beautiful and artistic folds. It is
meant to be draped. For Innings this
is an excellent material, as its softness
adapts itself to the outer garment so
well. Now crepe de chine Is being used
for hats. Many crepe dresses have
the hat to match. In New York
some shops sell dress and hat to match
all ready-made.

facturers, catering in a large way to
the fashion markets of the world, have
taken up the idea, and beautiful new
models for export trade are being pre-
pared in the Russian modes.
One of the charming things about
the Russian blouse is that it is youth
full in style and yet full Of dignity.
1t is becoming to almost every type OF
figure. With it's low waistline belt,
it's big sleeves and its effective en-
broideries the Russian blouse fits ex-
actly into the fashion picture Of to-
day.

To Make a Ribbon Rose.

To make a medium-sized rose re-
Quires two yards Of satin ribbon two
inches wide. Taffeta or satin may be
used. There are several different
methods OF making the center Of these
roses. A simple center may be made
from piece of the ribbon, four inches
long. Fold this in half. Sew the
selvages together along one side. Turn
and fill with cotton around which has
been wound the end Of 6-inch piece
of frame wire. A little rose-scented
sachet powder may be sprinkled on
this cotton to add perfume to the
blossom.

The Chatsworth district is in
