A R An Indian Who Will Be Missed. - Simon Pokagon, chief of the Pottawato- mies, who is dying near St. Louis at the age of 8) years, must have been an ex- traordinary man, for it is recorded of him that he succeeded in getting out of Con- gress the money owed his tribe for their lands—by the same methods the widow of the parable got her pay from the unjust Judge. Besides which, Mr. Pokagon has written 8 book on old Indian wars, and he gave lectures on Indian bistory in the course of the Columbian World’s Fair, being one of the most interesting person- ages of the Indian village in the ethno- logical exhibit.—Springtield (Mass.)
