Railroads and Redskins

A railroad grade crossing in Texas
claimed the life the other day of an
other of the human links connecting
the present day with its lost frontier
epoch. An Indian known as Old
Rogue, having attained the ripe age
of 100, was killed by a passenger train
near Ell Paso.
Old Rogue belonged to a bygone
era. He was n of Geronimo's band
of Apaches, who harried the south
west in the old days until tough Cen
eral Nelson Miles crushed them in
1886. Thereafter Old Rogue became
a good Indian" herding sheep on
the Texas plains and, in the last years
of his life, making bows and arrows
for the white children of Ell Paso and
teaching them archery and wood
craft.
All in all, the old chaps life span
ned great events. He was born when
Texas was a part Of Mexico, and he
kept on taking white mems scalps
and burning homesteads for a hole
decade after Custer went down at the
Little Big Horn; and in his old age
he became the friendly counsellor of
white children, a survival In Goth
century civilization direct from the
stone age.
1t was strange that he should be
killed by a railroad train-this old
warrior who had. donned war paint so
many times and had faced the rifles
of frontiersmen and the horsemen Of
the United States army. Strange
and yet rather fitting.
For the railroad, more than any
thing else, ended the reign Of the red
mar in the old west. When the first
iron horse puffed across the plains,
the Indian was done for. A few
bloody years of protest remained, but
the end was inevitable.
An Indian warrior ought to die in
battle. Failing that, however, wasn't
it right that this old fighter should
die under the wheels of the mechan-
ical monster that ended the reign
of his tribesmen on the limitless
plains?

to consider Germany's problems in a
friendly spirit and with full recogni-
ton of what collapse Of the German
government would mean to them,
both financially and politically.
The speed with which this emer-
gency was handled, even though a
final solution has not been obtained,
and the willingness to help which
most of the nations displayed at the
conference, certainly gives SO e
cause for hope for the future.

unattractive? Well, she mustn't

asked her to marry him and she,

The murmur ran along the line.
THE Prince!" A discreet, polite
murmur. And after an instant, in
the suddenly cleared doorway. he
appeared. A tall. very thin, rather
supercilious looking young man
with pale brown hair and a monocle
glazing one Of his sharp brown eyes.
He was in Z dress uniform Of silver

THE orchestra in response to a
hidden signal struck up the
young notable's national air. He
smiled. He clicked his heels and
bowed from the waist. LANE heard
the plump. green velveted matron

accents. The Prince put out his
arm to one of the ladies in his
party and the dance began again as
