from one island to another among the. many islands of Boring sea. You might study a map of that region, to see how the passage was prob ably made.
 We often call Indians fred men," but never saw an Indian with a red skin. The skin of an Indian is lbrownish or yellowish- brown. The hair is usually black and straight. A slight upward slant to the eyes has been noticed among some tribes.
 The skin, the hair and the eyes agree to a large extent with the skin, hair and eyes of the Mongolian race, which includes the Chinese and Japanese, have seen photographs, side by side, of Indians and Mongols dressed in similar costume, and 1t is hard to tell which is which.
 Eskimos living in northern Alas ka and northern Siberia look much alike, and must have come from the same stock. Scientists say that Eskimos and Indians are closely re- lated.
 No one can say exactly when the first people reached North America. It may have been more than 10000 years ago. Whenever it was, the Indians managed to spread them selves all over the continent. They went to Central America, and to South America. Magellan found "Patagonian" Indians down near the southern tip of South America.

Ia matter of lethargy. Most of the
 dyed -the-wool New Workers have
 been disappointed so often by pros- poets that didn't come up to advance reports that they grow skeptical; or they become sated after a time by the confusion of varied attractions
 which no one person could possibly
 have time to look in upon. Finally, with sigh, they sur. render to the things they personally wish to do and see--and let it go at that.
 Manhattan than the city ever gets credit for; citizens are not engaged in hectic rushing from here to there and back again. The persons thus engaged are most likely to be visitors who, having but a few days to spend, try to digest as much as they can before leaving.
 The New Yorker is inclined to be a procrastinator. He is likely to say, "Oh, why get all damned up in q
 crowd. Lte's wait while; it'll still
 be there next week or even next
 month. If we go now, we'll just run into another mob of people,
 There are, however. certain cliques that insist on being at certain events and at certain times.

New York.-While the guide books of Manhattan go merrily on men, | tioning such sights as the bridge of signs" and the Flatiron build- ing, few of the latter day visitors display much interest in such time- worn scenes.
 Possibly the time will come again when, due to their general neglect, these and kindred remnants of an older New York will witness a return of the boom days.
 In the meantime, the average run of tourists cry for the sight of the magical new minarets of which they hear so much. They want to reach the tip of the Empire State building or the Chrysler or the Chanin or any of the newer sky-touchers of the Wall street belt. They want to peep in upon the extravagances of Fifth avenue and view the windows of the smartest shops. They want, first of all, intimate slants at the more cur- rent aspects of the big city.
 Even the Brooklyn bridge is said to have lived to see falling off in fans.
 Of the old landmarks, the Aquarium and the Battery and the Statue of Liberty comes off about as well as any, with the Woolworth we'll in the running.
 Manhattanites, in keeping with most of the legends about them. are among their own towns worst sight seers. Most of them have, at one time or another, visited this scene or that, but few indeed ever cover old ground or make much of an ef- fort to explore for the things that are new and different.
 The arrival of visitor from out of town is likely to give them the necessary impetus to look over changes that often lie just around the corner. Otherwise they become pretty much crea- lures of habit and can't be both cred by the effort required to visit new scenes.

and a States attorney off the

Ask Roy Neuman, colored, no
address given. if you need bet-
ter authority.
He did it and, consequently,
spent Sunday night in the
county Jail at Upper Marlboro,
and was released on $1,000
bond by Justice of the Peace
Horace Taylor yesterday.
According to Sheriff Curtis

leSSly. He will be tried before
