TT HE picturesque figure of the trapper and fur trader follows
close behind the Indian in unfolding the story of the West.
= There is the explorer, but the trapper and the u trader them
selves preceded the explorers. Lewis and Clark met these charac-
ters OF their journey, and the trapper's hard-earned knowledge of
the vast empire lying beyond the Missouri a utilized. The early
day fur trader IA a composite figure. From the Northeast came
the French explorers like La Verendrye, and the multitude of daring
trappers and traders pushing west and south. From the south came
the Spaniard. From the North and Northeast there was the steady
advance of the sturdy Scotch and English, the leaders of the organ

Northwest Fur companies across Northern America to the Pacific.
days of the nineteenth century. The emporium of his traffic was
at Montreal. His sources of supply lay in vast distances from his
place of trade. His day did not know the advantages of modern
scientific invention. Consequently his distances Constituted a most
severe reality.
In the story of the fur trader there is presented a picture of
a adventurous figure; and perhaps % more interesting is any
other part of his experience in the wiIdernesses than the articles
that have to do with his travels from point to point, and the various
methods of transportation in those days employed. The author in

hardy Accommodating employees.

then plentiful.
In winter dogs drew sledges, as
they do now in Alaska, and elsewhere
in the extreme north. Most of these
sledges were of the toboggan type.
The method of constructing these
is described by Paul Haworth: GA
common way to make a sledge of
the last sort is to take a board of
hardwood about half an inch thick,
fifteen or twenty inches wide, and
eight or ten feet long. Steam and
bend one end up in the form of a half

known to need description With
the advent of the horse, the Indians
day of rapid transit dawned. Pre-
yiously to that he did his hunting on
foot.
The different kinds OF boats that
assembled the Missouri or were used
on it have been mentioned hereto
fore. One of these-the bull boat
made of a buffalo hide stretched ov-
er a circular frame, vas known to
many of the Indians east of the
mountains. In crossing a

necessary to start considerably above

Lays Claim To
Rich Gold Mime ON
Geronimo Lands

President Coolidge will grant
an audience to Lee Turner, an In
dian prospector of Tuscon, Ariz.,
who left hat city recently for the
National Capital City.
Turner claims that he discovered
a rich gold mine on land once con-
trolled by Chief Geronimo, but which
subsequently passed into possession
Of the federal government and up
on which Turner has proof of possess
sion When Turner left for Washing
ton he carried many documents, let
tiers and maps and samples of gold
ore. He hopes, he states, to receive
the assurance of President Coolidge
that this will not be confiscated, be-
cause it was once taken from Gero-
nimo by the government.
