having been called, 1t was at length
arranged that the head chief of teh
Chippewas should fight a duel to the
death with the head chief of the
Crows; whichever lived the longer
should be declared the victor, and
both tribes would abide by the re-
suit.
The next morning the duel began,
with no seconds or physicians in at
tendance; but a large interested
audience which would see to it that
the fight was fair. It was a not
able encounter this of the two men,
who were willing to sacrifice their
own lives to save those of their fol-
lowers. How long it lasted is not
known; but at it's end both chiefs
lay dying, and the one longer to sur
vive would win the victory for his
tribe. The Chippewa chief lived two
minutes after the Crow breathed his
last, and by that narrow margin fate
decreed that the Crows should never
again cross the river onto the Chip
peWa side. Perhaps it was the out
come of this duel that led the Crow
moving further west, into the Vel
lOwstOne country.

Wv YHEN the white race first came
M to America it's representatives
w were not specially interested
I'm the Indians they found here, and
wasted no time in trying to discover
whether the tribes they met had
sprung from the same stock, or
where were their original dwelling
places. They regarded them as just
plain Indian, to be exploited when
possible, and with "nO rights a
white man was bound to respect. -
Not much curiosity was felt concern
ing them; they were new, like the
soil and the climate, and the pioneers
had little time or strength to cope
with chronological subjects, after en-
gaging in a life and death struggle
with the latter. This, of course
does not apply to the missionaries
TO whom we are indebted for much
Of our knowledge Of Indians; but the
missionaries first object was the
saving of souls, which is none toe
easy a task, when the souls are those
Of civilized human beings.
There was undoubtedly some qUes
tiOning how these red sons of Adam
CHANGED to be on this continent, anC
one theory advanced claimed them tt
be descendants of the lost tribes o
Israel. This idea obtained credenct
with many who knew the Indians
best, from having lived with them
and became familiar with their Ian
guages and customs. Not until
comparatively recent date was Their

and then it was too late to lear
much which might easily have bee-
acquired earlier.

Crows seeded from the main body Of
the Sioux, due, as I have before
stated, to a quarrel between the
wives of two chiefs, who both cOvet-
ed the same portion Of buffalo
meat. The affair degenerated into
a general scrap, begun by the women,
but fought to a finish by their re-
spective hubands and ~adherents.
This, at least is the legend. Only
one thing is certain, at no distant
date, the Crows broke away from
their relatives, and while before
jewellers in villages, where they
raised corn and vegetables like the
Mandans, they moved west, and be-
came nOmadic.
Not all at once was this change
made, and it was while still living
in Minnesota, but probably not in
villages, that the following incident
occurred. It is a thrice told tale,
which I heard from a nan to whom
it was narrated.
This man was working in a lumber
camp, whether as foreman, cook, or
plain l~umber-jack, I cannot say; but
he was engaged in some capacity
where he earned enough to aid others
if so disposed; and it was a peculiar
ity of his to be $50 disposed" One
day he heard that an old Chippewa
chief was living in an abandoned
cabin near the camp, and was in
great restitution, having very little
to eat. The man-we will call him
Henry, as that was not his name
at once told his informant not to Lei
the Indian suffer, but to come to him
every day and he would see that the
chief had enough to eat.
Where Henry secured the food

They were continually at war one
with the other, save for some brief
interval when there was a truce de-
clared. Never we're they allies. Ger
tain territory in northern Minnesota
was claimed by the Chippewas,
while adjoining it dwelt the Crows,
with only a river separating them.
All went we'll, except for occasion
al raids into one anOther's country,
until the Crows began to invade the
Chippewa side of the river, and once
over made it evident they meant to
remain. Although repeatedly warn
ed to leave, they stood their ground,
and the ChippeWas Weer soon con
WINGED that force alone would have
the desired effect on hte invaders. If
the Crows were successful in assert
ing their right to cross the river
whenever they chose, the result was
inevitable, the Chippewas must move
on; the two tribes could not live in
harmony. The feud between them
had existed for yeaTs-sO long, in

LLOYD GEORGE SEEN
AS LIBERALS HEAD
Retirement of Lord Oxford
May Give Opponent Control.
Divided on Strike.
By the Associated Press.


LONDON, October 15.-Now that
the Earl of Oxford and Asquith has
definitely retired from the leadership
of the Liberal party, it is expected
that David Lloyd George, the party's
leader in Parliament, will be chosen
for the post.
In his letter Of resignation, Lord
Oxford asserts indirectly that his
giving up Of the leadership was due
to the political hostility between him
self and Mr.. LloydsGeorge growing out
Of the refusal of Mr.. Lloyd George to
adopt the policy Of Lord Oxford and
other high members of the party in
characterizing the general strike in
June as illegal.
This action OF Mr.. LLOYD George,
who contended that the government
should have settled the labor dispute
in an amicable way and thus prevented
the strike, caused Lord oxford to
write a letter virtually reading Mr..
Lloyd George out Of the Liberal
party. Then came a heated contro-
versy between the Lloyd George and
oxford wings. Mr.. Lloyd George,
however, refused to be shelved and
the parliamentary Liberal party sup
ported his leadership in the chamber
by a vote of 20 to IL.
In his resignation Lord Oxford said
he was firmly convinced of the cor
rectness of his stand toward the gen.
eral strike, but added that he could
not and would not participate in any
internal POLITICAL controversies.
Lord oxford and Mr.. Lloyd George
have differed on many questions of
policy for years. In 1915 Lord OK
ford, then Hebert Henry Asquith, was
forced out Of the premiership and was
succeeded by Mr. Lloyd George.
At the conclusion of the World War
the two political leaders virtually
smoothed over their difficulties and
worked together within hte Liberal
party for time.
In addition to Mr.. Lloyd George
there are other aspirants for leader
ship Of the party, especially Sir John
Simon. former home secretary, who
in recent months has been one of the
adverse critics of Mr.. Lloyd George.

Through her determination to

Some rules he advanced to guide
women in staying young were:
Take no poisons, including alcohol

daily "for your own sex and ex-
