The woman looked at him with a
troubled face. Lennier sank on the

table. His face under the green lamp

intensity.
"Goade," he pleaded, Il want you

That was all the conversation that

It was not until they were about two
miles from their destination and
could see the village. a picturesque
medley of garden-framed cottages
stretched out upon the hillside oppo-
site, that Goade, turning around with
some casual remark, was startled into
silence. His companion was staring
at him with a curious light in his
deep brown eyes, a light which Goade
failed to fathom. light of inquiry,
almost of dismay. In that second he
realized himself that there was some
thing familiar about that broad fore
head, the clustering masses of black
hair.

The woman leaned once more to-
ward him. She was calmer than the
man. but her voice was soft and per
suasive and her eyes beseeching.

and went on to the Saturday Review

THE death of Osceola did not bring
l. to a close the Seminole War. That
occurred in 1888: the war did not come
to a close until 1853. 1t was inter-
mittent warfare, at best but the
Government never got the better of
it's antagonists. Hidden in the Ever
glades, subsisting on natural fruits,
and raising here and there patches
of vegetables. the Indians had at all
times the soldiery of the American
Army at q disadvantage.
BY an act of Congress, in 1887, citi-
zenship was conferred upon all In
dians: but with the Seminoles there
has been no citizenship i'm the United
States. They have been a nation
ever since the first white man put
his foot on American soil, and they
consider themselves as much now.
Hence their approach to National
Government, seeking citizenship, is a
step in keeping with their traditional
history.
