Those outside were at the peak Of
their excitement and were having diff
Guilty in controlling themselves as they
waited for the climax, when the voices
suddenly ceased. The agitation Of the
lodge covering ceased. Only a deep
groaning was to be heard. This groan-
ing kept up for minute or two, and
yet nothing decisive happened. The
spell was shattered by voice behind
the seated warriors calling out:
His medicine has failed, they say.
They say it is really very weak"
Dinsdale stifed back cheer. The
Indians jerked their heads about as one
and were nonplused to behold the
white man standing on the outer fringe
of the massed group. This stupor
gave way to a desire for action, and
with yell several of the men leaped
to their feet and would have laid
violent hands on Scissors had not
Crazy Horse loudly commanded:

is not running away. Open the lodge"

With a chuckle Scissors explained:

Sorrel Horse was released. His face
was deadly with hate as he got on his
feet. He would not divulge that GER
tain extra and very stubborn knots
found in his thongs had been tied by
Scissors. He preferred to explain
that the white mans medicine had
been allowed to appear the stronger
because the red medicine was dis
pleased at the Indians soft treatment
of the white man.
"Why should Tunkan help the red
man against the white when the white
man is taken by the hand and called

FORD RAILROAD TO
tPEQUAMINC NOW

The Ford railroad to Pequaming
was connected up this week and the
dreams Of the people of that place
are, now realized.
For years there was talk Of rail-
road to Pequaming but it seemed like
visionary project.
+ Trains will be run with necessary
material but no log shipments will
be made until the road is ballasted
which will be the latter part Of next
week, when sufficient logs will be
shipped in from L'Anse to keep the
mill going. The mill will resume
saving on Monday, March 10, with
one shift.
Since the saw mill at Pequaminp
has closed down repairs and altera.
tions have been made which will in
crease the output, giving the plant
a larger saving capacity.
