FOUR USEFUL SENSES

The naturalist of Woodchuck-in-
the-Hills had pointed out a rabbit
squatting close under a bush, and
the ladies had declared in chorus
that they could not see the little ami

"How do you manage to see every
thing?'' asked one Of the party, with
fiattering infection.
"Well," began the naturalist, con-
fdently, faint altogether seeing.

strsne, Historian Whs Lived In 60
u. c., Wss Aware That the
Earth Is Round.

Most people associate the origin
or theory that the earth is round to
the period in which Columbus dis
covered American other words, to
the Fifteenth century, or there
abouts. However, the theory dates
back to the ancients, and one of its
propagandists was Strabo, born B.
G. Sc, who wrote q voluminous his
tory and also one of the worlds
earliest biographies, which has been
preserved to us.
This geography, written in Greek,
was intended for the guidance Of
statesmen, governmental officials
and military leaders. Speaking of
the earth's shape, the author says:
"We shall also assume that the earth
is spheroidal, that its surface is like
wise spheroidal, and above all, that
bodies have tendency toward it's
center, which latter point is clear to
the perception of the most average
understanding.
However we may show sum-
marty that the earth is spheroidal
from the consideration that all
things however distant tend to its
center, and that every body is at
tracted toward its center of gravity;
this is more distinctly proved from
observations of the sea and sky, for
here the evidence of the senses, and
common observation, is alone req
lisite."

nsseuresful Member Of Association
was Clever Enough to Perceive
Trap Laid for Him.

John Charley Chepson was a new
member OF the American Press HUI
morists' association, and at the con-
vention in Philadelphia his laugh
was heard above everything when
some speaker pulled a gag that Cbep-
SON liked.
After two days of public lunch
cons and dinners at which this bois-
ferrous laugh had attracted almost as
much attention as the comic
speeches themselves, the veterans de-
cided to spring a practical joke on
Chepson. They passed the word that
Chepson was to be called on sudden
iy for q speech, and at his first at
tempt to be funny, the plotters were
to laugh in concerted roar that
would break up the meeting.
Chepson arose and said: "For
two days l have been industriously
laughing my head off at every chest
nut and feeble gag pulled by the Of
hcers of this association in the hope
that would curry favor with them
and they would call on me for
speech. But / wore myself out be-
fore | bought their favor, and I am
now too exhausted to talk. Thank
you" And he sat down.
The plotters were dumfounded.
In fact, Chepson's laughter had
been sincere. But he was shrewd
enough to foresee that they were
loaded for him and that he must
spike their guns.-Judge.

he seemed to have forgotten the pur

CHIEF RAIN-IN-THE-FACE GOT
UNDESERVED FAME
BY ELMO SCOTT WATSON
xht. 1924. Western Newspaper Unior

MYTH the possible exception or
w Sitting Bull and Curley. Clusters
Grow scout, more transformation has
been written about n-The-Facs
(Itiomagaju) chief of the Hunkpapas
than any other Indian who ever lived.
When he died September ~, 1905, the
word was flashed all over the country
that "the Indian who killed General
Custer is dead"
During the Stanley expedition up
the Yellowstone in 1873, Raln-In-The-
Face murdered two civilians who had
gtrayed from Clusters command, q
crime for which he was arrested by
Capt Tom Custer year later and
Imprisoned. at Fort Abraham Lincoln.
N. ID. He escaped and after joining
the hostiles under Sitting Bull he Is
said to have sent word back to the
fort that he would have his revenge
on the whole Custer family and on
Captain Tom In particular.
Out of this threat grew the story
that Ra!n-In- The-Face after the battle
Of Little Big Horn had cut out Tom
Clusters heart and eaten a piece Of 1t.
Mrs. Custer in her book Boots and
Saddles" makes such an assertion, but
Rain In The-Face In telling his life
story to Dr.. Charles A. Eastman, the
noted Sioux writer, denied any such
deed and it Is reasonable to believe
that the Hunkpapa warrior would tell
member of his own race the truth.
More than that, DIR. Porter and Gen.
eral Benteen, who found Tom Gus
ter's body after the battle, have stated
in this way.
In Longfeilow's poem "The Revenge
OF Rain-In-T Face" he repeats the
story, although he makes Gen. George
Custer the victim of the atrocity in
stead of Tom Custer. This may be the
origin of the yarn that Rain-InThe-
Face was the slayer of Custer.
The circumstances connected with
his killing the two civilians from Gus
ter's command showed that he was a
ruthless, savage warrior. His bold at
tack on Fort Totten, N. D., In 1865
with two companions, an act Of sheer
bravado growing out of dare, and
his endurance of the worst tertures Of
the Sun Dance without a murmur
proved that he was man utterly in
different to pain, danger on death.
After the Sious vars were over
Rain-In-The-Face settled ON the Stand
Ing Rock reservation and In 1885 ap-
piled for admission to the Hampton
school, an effort which inspired a
second poem about hini--this time
from the pen of another great Ameri-
can poet, John G. Whittier. On the
reservation Rain-In-The-Face became
an Indian policeman.
