- PAGE FOUR - THE BEMIDJI DAILY PIONEER NEW YORK'S FIRST SETTLERS ‘ ‘Relics in Museum at Albany Seem to i Indicate That They Were of Eekimo Origin, ! Eskimos were the first settlers ot 'New York, according to the evidence offered by a collection of about 12, 000 relics recently presented to the state museum in Albany by Mrs. F\ F. Thompson of Canandaigua, the daughter of Myron H. Clark, who was governor of New York in 1855 and 1856. i To those who can interpret this ‘eollection it tells a story of absorbe ing interest, going back into the dim " pest and throwing light on the first human inhabitants of New York 'state, so far as scientists are able to Judge, says a writer in the St. Louis iBepublio. In it are many of the im- plements used by this people, who, the average person will be surprised to learn, came from the frozen fast- nesses of the far North thousands of years ago, when it would seem al- ‘most impossible for men to migrate such a distance. It numbers also relics of the American aborigines of this section before the advent of the white man and during the colonial period that are of exceptional his- gfnriml value. “The Socialists looked for a mo- ment as if they might win in Paris.” “No,” said Miss Cayenne; “theys| never looked that way. They only sounded like it.” i SUSPICIOUS OF VIRGIN GOLD. ' With about thirty ounces of vir- gin gold in their possession a French-Canadian, his wife and two small children, who appeared in a Toronto store, excited the suspicion of a detective. It turned out that the Frenchman and his wife had been employed in the northwest On- tario gold country, the wife as a cook, and it was her earnings in' gold dust that the pair were disposing of for currancy. The gold dust was in a couple of shaving-soap tins and an old tobacco pouch, and at $20 an ounce was worth about $600. The bargain for the purchase and sale of the dust was completed in the de- tective headquarters. ANTICLIMAX. “I never hear your boy talking about his experiences in France.” “Im afraid I've discouraged him,” said Mr. Glipping. “Indeed ?” “Yes. Sam introduced me one day to a gentleman in civilian attire. As I don’t hear any too well, I didn’t understand what he said about the gentleman, but after I had expatiated at length on Sam’s important work in France, although he hiinself was only a private, I discovered that the person I was talking to had formerly been the colonel of Sam’s regiment.” —Birmingham Age-Herald. i i ODD THOROUGHFARE. Every day but one in the year any- body may use the little street that connects Thirty-third and Thirtye fourth streets, New York, on the west side of the Waldorf-Astoria ho- tel. One day every year the street is closed, because the street is the prop- erty of Vincent Astor, and if it were left open for a full year it would be- come a public thoroughfare. P FISH IN STORAGE. Last year the cold storage plants of this country reported approxi- mately a total of 10,000,000 pounds of frozen fish in their warehouses or one-tenth of a pound per capits for our population.

NO SPOONING IN AIRPLANES Sheer Impossibility of Sociabllity While Flying May Constitute Bar to Popularity. \ The most fatal thing of all at the present time to the popularity of flying 1s its unsoclability. The pilot may have the profile of a Greek god, but if every time he turns it to speak it is neces- sary to shut off the engine, and one's heart stops, too, it is difficult to think of a witty response. And mostly he does not turn it. All one has for com- pany is the upper two-thirds of the back of a'leather helmet. As a match- making proposition the airplane is a fallure. And as for descending to some flowery meadow and there say- ing all the things he has been thinking up while in the air, I can only say per- sonally that after two hours of flying, I was stone deaf, and I wouldn’t have known whether he was telling me he adored me or was asking me if I wanted a drink of water. I was‘quite deaf for some time. We landed at an army aviation field be- fore a lot of ground mechanics and fiyers, and if I expected that the re- moval of my goggles and discovery of my sex was going to make any sensa- tion I was disappointed. D’you think they ran up and shook me by the hand and observed that I was a brave woman? They did not. A man in overalls came up and I gathered by lip reading and his gestures that we weren't want- ed where we were, and to move on down the fleld and park somewhere else.
