H. Burnham and Hears About the: Indians—Diversions Plan- ned for All Hallows’ Eve. The Woman's Home Missionary so- ciety of the Congregational church met at the home of Mrs. H. H. Burnham, the hotess presiding. A programme, the subject being The American In- dians, had been carefully prepared by Mrs. Burnham. Scores of pictures were hung about the pn_rlor to Mllustrate the numerous papers which she had: pre- pared to be read by the ladies. Mrs. E. ¥, Burleson read of Missions of the Southwesi, which was already an old civilized country at the time of our revolutionary war. They had been B n for 230 vears. In New ns of missions had besn es- tablished by 1616. The mission era in California began with the founding of San Diego, in 1769, and lasted until the state came under American control in 1848. Mrs. Burnham read How the Indian Finally Became a Man. Standing Bear gave them citizenship and legal righta, causing him to be the most celebrated Indian. Mrs. G. W. Robinson read a paper on Baskets, of which none have ever been woven to compare with those made by the American Tndian, Mrs. H. N. Wheelock read a paper on the Sedquoya League, which was formed in California in 1902, its object being to make better Indians and better treated Indians. A committee was headed by Dr. David Starr Jordan, president of Stanford university, and presented to the United States senate a report of the condition of the mission Indians. The report began thus: “The history of the mission Indians for a century may be written in four words—conver- sion, eivilization, neglect, outrage.” Mrs. J. C. Taw s read a paper on Silent Thought. The average Cherokee, who talks clearly and forcibly, spends a certain portion of each day in sys tematic thought. Mrs. M. L. Grant told the story of A Littie Indian Girl's Viewpoint. Mrs. Gane read of the blankets of the Navajo, which are the most perfect in the world, but it iz a generation since a strictly first-class one has been created. Mrs. E. A. Faust told of the Wealth of the Osage Indian., Every man, wom- and and child has about $10,000 in trd#st which is held by the government, which pays them 5 per cent. interest on it. Mrs, Mary Brown told of the Kiowa Surgery, which was the most crude of anything performed by human bengs. Mrs. L. A. Pauton read an Indian girl's plea. Mrs. Burnham gave several rem- iniscences which were very interesting. At the close of the programme there was a social hour. Sandwiches, olives. wafers and coffee were served by the hostess. A rising vote of thanks was given her for her delightful entertain- ment. Hallowe’en Diversions, Hallowe’en festivities this evening will be so numerous thaf none need lack for entertainment.
