Among the most plausible o these is one advanced by a man formerly connected with the government secret sery. fce. He says “Of course, there is no question but tha this personal refers to the Cudahy kidnap ing case. The two signatures settle tha point.

Attributing thelr absence to a possible inability to control their feel- ings, he asked the others to say a word of farewell for him and then settled back in the seat to make the best of a ride over rough tracks. When the train had left the agency a few miles in the rear the car door opened and from the front end of the train came four braves attired in garments suitable for a long journey. There was “Calico,” who had his chattels tied in a saddle blanket; “Six Holy,” with a shawl full of possessions on his shoulders; “Joe Calico” and “Little Hawk," carrying their belongings in a blanket fastened to a stick over their shoulders, true Indian fashion. We're going along,” Joe Calico grunted. We've got permissions unknown to you; we raised money. Little Hawk hes sold his pony and we won't go back. We'll work for you on the other side of the great di- vide where you're going.” Mr. Dew tcok the only action possible under the circum- stances—he let them come. Happy Red Children. Four happler red men never trod the streets of Omaha than these braves, who are careful not to let the school inspeetor out of their sight for fear they will lose him Littlo Hawk is the most picturesque in the company. There is an adverse significance in his name, as he stands six feet two in his moccasins and has shoulders like those of a dray horse. The Indians wear their hair in long braids brightened with beads and miniature arrows and tomahawks, Their trousers and jackets of the regulation buckskin, adorned with bits of colored flan- nel. Each of the men has had rather a notable part in the old Indian outhreaks and wars. Mr. Dew said: “I will let them ccompany me to Oklahoma, but they must oon return to their agency.
