visited with Charlie Lambert who
was a member of one of two Indian
families who were ambushed by a
party of Crows and all but Charlie
killed, he being left for dead. Lam
bert was able to tell them many things
they wished to know. At Oldtown,
Nick, an ancient Indian, was able to
help them map out the oldtime vii
lage. Mr.. and Mrs. Charlie Track
visited the Workings at their camp.
J. B. Randall, who came to these parts
in '89, told the brothers that he had
seen their fathers name stencilled
on some of the old logs of the saw
mill, which was long ago torn down.
Would Mark Redstone's Grave

effort to locate the grave of Chief
Redstone from directions given them
by Chas. Track. They are genuinely
interested in having the resting place
of the famous chief marked and J.

National Bank as a beginning for a

of their visit it is quite certain that
the work will be carried forward by

Portable, many of them engaged in
worthy occupations and ~endeavoring
to provide for their families. They
are indeed a changed people from
those we knew"
The Working brothers have re-
markably clear and accurate memoir
les of events surrounding their life
here. Their father, accompanied by
Lem Burke of Golden, ILL.,, a man
named Morris and one named Hughes
came to Fargo in 1875 and travelled
from there to Wolf Point by sled.
Working, Hughes and Morris were
stationed at Wolf Point, Working as
sawyer and boss carpenter, Morris
as boss farmer and Hughes in charge
of the commissary. Working con-
structed a saw mill just west of the
present Mission buildings and built
himself a log cabin on the spot now
included in the stock corral. On the
fiat beyond the mill was a cultivated
field where potatoes and vegetables
were grown. This ground has now
been cut away by the river, whose
swift, muddy current flows over it.
A Few Log Cabins
The following year Mrs. Working
and her two boys, aged 6 and 9, and
Mrs. Morris and her two sons, the
latter from Quincy, ILL.,, came to Bis
mark and thence up the Missouri by
steamboat. They think it was on
tha old Pan4oo A. fho+ '45non cax1c
J. W. Working. there were six or
eight log cabins on the present site
of Oldtown and about 5000 Assini-
boine Indians along the mouth of
Wolf Greek. The Indians were
friendly and never regarded as
dangerous. j. M. Working had the
faculty of gaining their confidence
and the Working cabin was a sort
of social center for them.
Redstone Was Chief
Redstone, grandfather of Frank
and Fred, was then chief of the tribe
and for a long time had a habit of
taking dinner with the Workings. He
carried no watch but he seldom miss
ed the hour by more than ten minutes.
w. Working still displays a scar
on one of his fingers made with Red
tomahawk which he borrowed
Of the chief to play with. The cut
was a deep one and the boy cried.

pluck and told him he would never

NATIVES ARE TOO POLITE
Papuan Unable to Carry Friend Across
Kills Him Because He Did Not
Wish to Be Rude.

Related TO the weakness which in
duces the Papuan native to lie in order
to humor the European is the courtesy
which he often displays on the most
unexpected occasions.
You may tell the same story two or
three times to Papuan, but he will
laugh just as heartily or express just
the same establishment the last time
as the first. No hint will escape him
that he has heard the story before.
And even In the crimes which he not
lnfrequently commits-mostly crimes
of violence-he is not always forgetful
of the rules of politeness.
He wanted me to carry him across
the water" said a prisoner who was
charged with numbering another ma
tive whom he had met and done to
death on the bank of a river, "but he
looked very heavy. OF course could
not be so rude as to refuse to carry
him. so 1 thought that the best way
out of the difficulty was to kill him"
Courteous, too, was the explanation
given to me by SEINE natives of the
nouitaihs ihiuHu VI hiBo, WHO were

Pigeon Finds Way by Sight.

A British royal air force pigeon, re-
leased from a balloon a mile and
half above the ground, was unable to
see the earth below on account of a
thick blanket of clouds. After flying
around for little time the bird gave
up all hope of finding its way back to
its home. some $50 miles away, and
settled down comfortably on the bal
loon, much as Noah's dove settled on
the ark when 1t could find no place
to rest on account Of the waters. The
pigeon, however. had better luck than
Noahs dove. After time a rift APP
peared In the clouds, and the bird
swooped from the balloon through the
gap in the vapor. and two hot rs later
had delivered the message tied 10 It's
