(By the Asso- elated Press)—The Fish Trail Chicago to northern Wisconsin, one of the first automobile trails that were| blazed by wealthy sportsmen when from Shirts ||| ment, T T |the automobile was a luxury, runs |through this reservation. This summer a Menominee Indian, hearing of an automobile camper in |the reservation beside this trail, who was caught in the rain, with inade- mnn(fl sheiter, removed the tarpaulin from his threshing machine to keep izhp camper dry an® warm. No tips were involved, but simply an act of courtesy. | These are the Menomineces of to- tday, whose historical character was de bed in a Washington Indian service report thus: “A Woods Indian, the Menominee was a striking figure, generally six ‘(nat and over in height, a giant in (strength: few im number compared with other great tribes, their bravery land fighting qualities enabled them to hold their own with surrounding tribes. Their wnrd once given could be relied upon.’ The federal government is working out an experiment with these modern Menominees, by trying to develop Ithem through the tribal, that is the! communal land holding system, that is |new a rarity in most countries. Among {most American Indian tribes commun- al land holding has beén abolished |through acts of congress aloltting the {lands. | The work among the is under the direction of Superinten- dent Edgar A. Allen, of Kreshena. The reservation, in northwestern Wis- consin, covers an area of approxi- mately eighteen miles hy twenty-four Y|[with a population of about 1,800 In- dians, whose communal holdings total 231,000 acres, a large portion of it in timber.

The Menominees still have nine living civil war veterans {and twenty volunteer veterans of the |great war |he took Mr. George Vaux, of Phila- |delphia, one of the Indian commis- sioners holding presidential appoint- ment, to inspect the farm of a Me- cultivation, and has more |dozen men working for him, |a few whites.

Along with the courtesy of these Menominees goes a marked degree of neatness and order about their farms. Disorder and dogs are no more ap- |parent than in other communities, but there are a few dogs with traditional habits for night prowling. At one camp | this summer dogs broke into canned | goods at night several times, getting little until they pried the cork out of |a castor oil bottle. ‘Most of the oil |disappeared, and the dogs did not |return the next night. To all outward appearances the reservation Indians lead about the |same lives as other rural Americans. | | There is an experimental farm, a gov- ernment logging industry and mill and | houses about the various headquarters | ‘!hat for order and quiet, good taste |and upkeep, might rival the farms of | ‘rxt) busi en. These are the gov- mrnment examples, either self-support- | ing, or inexpensive, to show the In- /| |dlans what industry will do. | | In an ice cream parlor one evening {this summer several women were |chatting, most of them apparently | (from families of small but adequate imeans.

THESPIANS LOAFING | Actors and Actresses in England Are Out of Work; Accept Minor Parts to Keep From Starving. | —Thousands of ac- tors a in England are out >f work. The hot summer, the clos- ing down recently of six London play- houses, and the exodus of the theater- zoing public to the seashore have {been the main factors. In their ef- | | forts to keep the wolf from the door, | men and women of the histrionic art have accepted small parts in cipema productions An endeavor is being made to re- lieve the situation by the formation of a kind of cooperative theatrical company for the benefit of the work- | less actors and actresses. Those tak- | ing part receive $15 a week. ‘“East Lynne” was the first play given, but after a four-week's season, it was found that the company had lost $250 after paying artists' salaries, so the venture went on the shoals.

Willlam A. Thomas, Episcopal Missionary ‘at Point Hope, three hun- dred miles north of the Arctic Circle, brings a remarkable story of a self- governing Esquimau community which has been successfully carried on at Point Hope for the past six years. Under the tutelage of the mission- aries equal suffrage has been estab- lished among the Tigaras, who an- nuaily in town meeting elect from among themselves the Omajik, or council of Leading Men, who, in turn enact the local laws and see to their enforcement among the thousand mw tives who inhabit the region. This democracy of the frozen north even| has its own prohibition law, which prohibition amendment gvas adopted in the United States, says Rev. Thom- as This unique venture in Home Rule was inaugurated six years ago, after the breakdown of the autocratic rule of a tribal chief, and following the generation of years at the Episcopal Rev. Thomas | younger reports. “Originally the Omalik was com- posed of seven men, says Rev. Thomas five was a better number. From the beginning of the experiment the right of suffrage was given to men and women alike, in the selection of the Council. Christmas was fixed as the day of the election because on that day all of the trihesmen come into the settlemen for feasting and mer- ry making, and we are able thereby to get fullest expression of sentiment of people. The names are written on a blackboard, and the five securing the greatest number of votes are de- clared elected, while that one of the five who receives the greatest numbers of votes becomes the chief council- man." Rev, Esquimaux are a singularly and law-abiding people so that the work of the Omalik is largely confined to the enactment of routine municipal regulations. He says: “There are no | police and no courts. The Missionary gives some quaint illustrations of the manner in which Esquimau self-gov- |ernment works. For example, the‘ Omalik has a regulation against gos- sips. Any person male or female found guilty of gossiping, is called before the entire community and publicly rebuk- ed by the chief Omalik. All forms of lying are frowned upon, but particu- |larly among the young. A young man caught lying to his parents is séntenc- ed to carry a certain amount of wa- ter for the public use; or, as an alter- native, to give a day's time to assist- | ing some aged couple in cleaning up | their igloo or hut. A lad who stole| some tobacco was sentenced to rlean‘ out his victim's doghouse -\no?hery native who was guilty of a trifling | theft, was sentenced to accompany one | Thomas points out that the orderly | | of the officials on a jaunt of 419 mlle-f |to Point Barrow, walking all the way behind a dog sled. He was furnished his meals on the journey, and, of course, had his rest periods, but the penalty lay in being compelled to give his services during the trip in the management of the dogteam.” SEAL HUNTERS ARE SKEPTIG OF PLANES Believe Experienced Boatsmen Lo- cate Herds Better Than Airmen St. Johns, N. F, July 7.—Newfan- gled contraptions find little favor in the eyes of thé Newfoundland sealer, and so a plan introduced this season to use airplanes for locating the seal herds failed of acceptance by the sea- soned sealing skippers. The eyes of an airman cannot beat the skill of a faring man wise in wind andi weather, said the skeptics Aviators flew over the vast flelds from Labrador south to ice- the son and claimed to have found the herd 200 miles from the region where the aling fleet was operating. “Nonsense,” said the seal- hunters, and went on about their business. The airmen offered to sell their information to the Newfound- land government for $40,000 and they offered it to the owners of the seal- for the same figure. The season waned, and neither govern- ment nor ship owners would deal. | Finally, when the sealing was over and the fleet had dispersed, the avi- ators agreed to accept 10 cents a seal for their information. It was too “'seals-from-the-air" SUCCESS OF GOVT. was adopted three years before the| instruction which has been given the| Esquimau, | “But it was found later that| | of Nenagh, County Tipperary, CASTORIA For Infants and Children | In Use For Over 30 Years Always bears W | the Signature of =, Then there is the market to con- sider, say the hunters. In 1902 seals were so plentiful that prices dropped below a paPing figure, and it was only curing the war when seal oil brought high prices for the manufacture of glycerine that the business again be- came profitable Even the reduced catches of late years have been suf- ficient for the market, it is claimed The aviator-sealer thus has many obstacles to overcome before he can obtain a hearing, but he still has friends in the fleet. These have pro- posed that the airmen be used next season on the 10 cents a seal basis and it is believed that this course will be adopted The Newfoundland seal is made Into leather, and for its fat, hunted | almost entirely for its skin, which is | for many industries.
