The big hall was jammed, the en-

the popular chord when it decided to
roof and enclose the dance floor in

MR.. WOOD F. AXTON
President of the Axton-Fisher Tobacco
Co., of Louisville, KY.
Who donated over $4,000 in tobacco
cigarettes and cash to the striking

Probably no other man outside of
organized labor has done more for
labor than Wood F. Axton, president
of the Axton-Fisher Tobacco Co.

locals most generous supply of his
Clown cigarettes, "Old Hill Side

Twist" for free distribution among
the strikers, but sent thousands of
dollars in cash for the relief of the

To the striking miners he sent over
$4,000 in tobaccos and cigarettes and
cash, and the r. R. shop crafts,
through the system federation, over
$4,000 in merchandise and $4,000 in
actual cash.

Are we not all members of a great
and wealthy body polite, wherein
no one can live to himself or die
without loss to the rest?
mi Let q dozen men, each man ow-
ling his neighbor flve dollars, sit In
circle. Let one of these take a
hve-dollar bill from his pocket and
pay his debt TO the man next to
him. Let this man pay his neigh
Dor and the next man pay his until
the bill shall have gone round the
circle and returned to the man
who started 1t on It's round. This
man may return the bill to his
pocket with the happy conscious
ness that he has paid his debt and
also received what was due him,
and that every other man in the

But II the first man had not started

been no such results. He would
then have illustrated Russia, in

By ELMO SCOTT WATSON

a HO|T thirty years ago a com.

lands on the Rosebud reservation in
South Dakota. One night Il Brule
chief named Two Strike agreed to sign
the treaty but the next morning when
1t came time for him to make his mark
on the treaty rolls, he held back.

One of the commissioners was great

Utes In Colorado. Finally the Utes
were defeated, Two of them tried to
escape on one horse. Two Strike
urged his war pony alongside the
horse bearing the double burden,
raised his war club and knocked both
enemies off with one blow.
Although Nom-pa-a-pa fought In

among the whites as a leading chief
until the Ghost Dance troubles Of 1890

tile element of the Sioux. On the day
of the Wounded Knee fight he led the
attack on the troops at Pine Ridge
Agency, an attack that was rrpulsed.
The next day he attacked a wagon
train near the st. Francis mission and
the Seventh Cavalry was sent out to
beat off Two Strikes warriors. The
Brule chief drew the soldiers into a
trap. Only the timely arrival Of the
Ninth prevented the mission Fight"
