the house, by a vote Of III to 1870, an
amendment to the 1925 naval bill in.
creasing the enlisted force from g..
900 TO $4,000.
Shot at from all sides, the bill, as
framed by the appropriations commit.

wabbled at times like a frail craft
then 1ent down by the head. There
are other sections, OF course, to be
taken up, but the big fight was on the
enlisted provision.
The vote vas in committee Of the
whole. When the measure reaches the
house proper a demand will be. in or
der for a recorded vote, but the wide
margin by which the amendment won,
means, according to most leaders, that
the result will stand.
Some administration leaders asser,
that the letter presented from the
president urging that the force be not
reduced below $4,000 swung the tide
In favor of the amendment, which was
Offered jointly by Representative Nc
Arthur, Oregon, and Ware, Pennsyl-

Fighting to the last, holding his
ground through four solid hours OF de-
bate, Representative Kelley, of Michi-
gan, in charge Of the bill, took the de.
feat with a smile when a roar, rising
and growing, swept the chamber as
the march Of members down the aisle
for a man-to-man count showed that
the amendment had won.

TECUMSEH BECAME
A BRITISH GENERAL
By ELMO SCOTT WATSON

TN THE year 176S Meetheetashe, wife
l Of Chief Pukesheeno Of the Shawnees,
gave birth to triplets. One Of them,
Tecumtha or Tecumseh, The Shoot
ing Star" a name strangely prophetic
Of his meteoic career, was destined to
be called by many historians "the
greatest American Indian"
Tecumseh distinguished himself in
battle early. Although he was a great
warrior, he was not a cruel II and,
due to his influence. the Shawnees
gradually gave up the practice Of tor
turing captives. He was II proud chief
tain, too. At a council with Gen. VIII
liam Henry Harrison. governor Of In
diana, in 1910, the interpreter handed
Tecumseh a chair with the remark,
Your father requests you to take this
chair" MY fatherf The sun Is my
father and the earth is my mother and
/ will rest upon her BOSOM" replied
Tecumseh haughtily as he took his
place among his warriors on the
ground.
Tecumseh had come to protest
against the cession of Shawnee lands
under the Treaty Of Fort Wayne. but
his objections gained him nothing.
He travelled throughout the Middle
West gaining recruits for his confed-
Grafton. His scheme failed.
While he was absent, his brother,
the loud-mouthed Prophet, rashly pre-
cipltated an attack upon Harrison and
the Battle Of Tippecanoe In 1911 ended
Tecumseh's dream forever. He imme-
diately enlisted In the service Of the
British. who, at the outbreak of the
War Of 1872, made him a brigadier
general. Once while he discovered
some Of his Indians butchering helpless
captlves, he hOtly rebuked General
Proctor for allowing 1t.

dams could not be restrained"
"Begone !" shouted Tecumseh. "You
are not fit to command. Go home and
put on petticOats."
Later In the campaign when the
cOwardly Proctor continued retreating
Tecumseh forced him to make a stand
on the Thames river in Ontario. He
seems to have had a presentiment Of
death for he discarded his generals
uniform and went into the battle wear
Ing the deerskin garD Of a Shawnee
warrior. He was killed in that battle.
His had been the career of a shoot

In Ohio, his birthplace, to the Thames,

short time Tecumseh made his place

CHIEF WEATHERFORD-A PAGE
OF BLOODY HISTORY

7 ATE In the summer of 1918 the
~ whole country was stunned by the
news Of a 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 Mltnius the Illinois tragedy
seemed insignificant. OF a garrison of
ITS men, w0men and children, only II
escaped alive
The leader In this massacre was the
Creek chief Red Eagle (Lamochattee)
commonly known as Neatherford, 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
10 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" a natural for
tress on the Alabama river, Weather.
ford was the last to leave the field.
His capture, seemed certain. Sudden
ly he turned his horse to a cliff where
there was a sharp drop Of Is feet to
the river. The chief g~alloped to the
brink and In one great leap horse and
hder dropped into the river. Disap-
pearing beneath the water, then
emerging. they wan to safety.
After suffering several defeats, the
Creeks prepared to make their last
stand at Tohopeka or the Great
Horseshoe Bend Of the Tallapoosa
river. Here on March q, 1914, 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
er 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. II am Weather
ford, who commanded at Fort Mimms,"
he said. II desire peace for my peo-
pie and have come to ask 1t. l am in
your power; do with me as you
please" II wish to take no advantage
Of you" replied "Old Hickory" You
may return TO your tribe and continue
the war. But II you r taken you
shall receive no quarter"
"You can safely address me in such
terms now," was Weatherford's digni-
fed reply. II could nee animate my
warriors to battle, but I can not ami.
mate the dead. I 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 9, 1894. he
! held his nation at peace.
