An lndln Tradition of Hi )'.rlf Intnloa 'Hi ere In an Interesting tradition niiKinir tlie Indians mid pioneers of northern Mlcliljfnn vrhlch may a duo to the orfifln of soma of tho prlmttlro monuments found In tho It can not bo shown by neliml proof that this tradition la thelitis, nor la It often toiu twice auuo. Yat tho general thread of tho nnrrntlto In Identical, whether rolated by tho pioneer or by tho Indian. Tho trndltlon, aa told by an old Indian, I that at a time, long, long ago, before tho first whlto man set foot In this peninsula, thoro lived, In tho territory drained by tho Saginaw and Its tributaries, n very poworful trlbo called Hauka, and that tho balance of Michigan was Inhabited by tho Pottawatomie, while tho Ottawas and Chippewa occupied tho northern part of tho state as far as Lalie Superior. Tho KanUs, who had strong villages alon? the rivers, were continually making war upon their Chlppowa neighbors on the north and the Pottawatomlcs on tho south, as well as upon somo of the tribes In Canada. At last, realizing that the e (Torts of a single trlbo to permanently aubduo the Sauka wero of no avail, a council was held at Mackinac Island, comlstlng of all tho tribes who bad been repeatedly molested. At this council a large force was fitted out with the best braves, arms and canoes which tho united tribes could muster. This forco then set out In their bark conoet, going south along tko western shore of T.ako Huron until Saginaw bay was reached. They then stealthily skirted the shore of tho bay by night, secreting themselves In tho day time: until after many days, they wero within a few miles of the mouth of tho Saginaw river. Here part of tho forco vtos sot ashore, whlto tho remainder erossod tho bay In tho night, and, land Ing on tho eastern shoro, detailed a part of their number to watch tho canoes, which they concealed la tho undergrowth. In the morning both parties started up tho river, one on either aide, and following the rldgo upon which wero located tho villages of tho Sauks, prepared to attack and massacre tbo inhabitants of each as they came Unit Tho forco on tho west aide attacked the main rlllago by surprise and massacred all tho Inhabitants, except a fow which rctrcatod across tho river to o'no of tho other villages, which was located near what is now Hay City. Hut about this time the eastern division of tho invading forco arrived and made a furious attack upon this village. Here, a second tlmo tho Invadsrs woro successful, and the enemy retreating to a small Island about a quarter of n mile up tho river, thought themselves safe, as the Invaders bad no canoes at hand with which to reach them. At Oils placo a siege was Instituted until tho next morning, when, the river having frozen over during tho night, tho two attacking parties were enabled to cross, one from each side, and by their combined efforts exterminated the garrison, with the exception of twelve squaws. The invadors then resumed their march up tho river, attacking and all in their way. At the junction where tho Cass, tihianasseo and Tlttabawassee rivers meet to form the Saginaw, they divided, sending one party up each river. Those going up tho Shiawassee again divided on reaching tho mouth of the Flint, so that some wero sent wherever a village was located. Ono of the largest villages was tho bluffs of the I'lint, near the present town nf flushing. Tho division whose duty it was to exterminate- the villages of the Tittabavtassco River valley dlscovcrcd an extremely large village only a few miles up the river, and overpowering tho Inhabitants by sheer numbers, killed them alt and buried their remains In ono largo mound on tho river bank. Traces of this mound may still bo seen. Tho force that went up the Cass also attacked a large village which stood at tho bend in the river now known as Bridgeport After exterminating the entire tribe,-with the exception of tho twelve squaws before mentioned, n second council was hold, and after considerable dobate, these squaws were sent west, and by treaty put under the protection of tho Sioux, much to tho disgust of a largo number w)io woro in favor of torturing them. Tho conquered country was set aside for a neutral hunting ground, to be used by tho savarnl tribes who had taken part In the Invasion. Hut slnco many of tho hunting parties who visited tho scone of tholr former victories novur returned, it was thought by somo that thoro still remained a few Sauks, who, lurking In tho denser parts of tho forest, vigilantly watehod the chance of vengeance, and to kill any unsuspecting hunter who might bo led into that part by tho gamo and fish which wero ao plentiful. Others believed the place to be haunted by tho spirits of tho exterminated Sauks, aud nothing couid Indujo them to venture into the mysterious territory. At last, so strong had become tho dread of this region, that It was used as a placo of cxlla for those of tho tribca who committed uxtrcroo crimes. Mora of tho Chippowas were exiled than of the other tribes, so that tholr language prevails, although somewhat changed by contact with tho other Ian. guages. Harlan J. Smith, In American Autlqurlan. 'THE BEAR MOTHER." A lUl.ta Lcnd Irltelr lortrared In Slat tr n Indian soulntor. A mognlUcent collection of Indian Ingenuity and skill in alate, bono and wood carving I to bo seen at the National museum. Among tho apeclmons shown thoro Is a Ilaldu alate flguro, tho "Hear Mother," which Is undoubtedly one of the most marvellous conceptions of savage art This figure, though small and uf ler the rude stylo' of sculpture, la full of expression, and the ideas that sot the carver at work are portrayed by the position of every HmlL and,.tlo. ouU)no,of ovgry Highest of all In Leavening Power. -Latest U. S. Gov't Report. Roy&l iH LiA 4bW Ml L. VJ BaJBr feature. The specimen la about nine Inches long and carved from a solid piece of slato, in which material many of the Indian carvings ore done. Tho "Hoar Mother" figure is tho materialization of a legend, tin Haidavor slon of which Is as follows: "A number of Indian squaws were in the woods gathering berries, when one of them, the daughter of a chief, snoko In terms of rtdfeulo of tho whole boar species. Tho beara descended on them and killed them nil but the chlof s daughter, whom the king of the bears took to wife. She bore him a child half human and half bear." Tho carving roprcscnta tho agony of the mother in nursing this rough and uncouth offspring. The young creature Is seen at her breast, apparently eager to appcaso the animal appetite, and ss It feeds It claws tho mother's flesh with ite paw-bands, causing her excruciating pain. The features of tho mother are distorted and her body twisted, as In her agony she seems towrithe. One of her arms is thrown out In helpless despair, tho other one rests above tho child's head as though about to thrust It from her, yot tho action Is stayed by a mother's heart Tho rude labret or lip ornament Is seen protruding In tho earring as she opens her mouth to give vont to cries provoked by the torturo she endures, and yot her eyes are closed as though she bad already resigned herself to fate, that sho might save her babe. This carving was done by a llalda Indian, whoso trlbo, dwells In that strip of land In southern' Alaska and northern Ilritlsh Columbia known ns tho "Northwest Coast"-From these Indians and other' tribes inhabiting tho same territory' In carving havo been obtained, all' of which aro on exhibition at tho muse-i um. Tim sneclmena In slate are more accurately carved, as tbo material has' tho desirable quality of being soft when freshly quarried, and of harden-' Ing and taking a polish when exposed, to tho weather for some time. Of this, material thoy havo made and carved models of totem posts,flgurcd columns,, boxes inlaid with silver and Ivory, pipes of various kinds, figures and dishes. Of tho last-named specimens thero Is a large dish of particular flne workmanship, around tho center of which are carved two eagles and two wolves, the handles representing sea lions. There Is a carved slato box, also tho result of a legend, on the lid of which two faces may be seen. On the front side M the box Is the faco of lioortz, tho bear having In his mouth tho hunter. Kach handlo represents tho hood of a sea lion holding a salmon in hit mouth. Numerous specimens aro to be seen at tho museum of Indian carving In bone, Ivory, metal, stone and wood. The most Interesting of theso is the' collection of trinkets for savage adornment In this collection aro shown specimens of silver, copper and Iron bracelets decorated with the tho most outlandish-looking designs, ear-rings, 'nose-rings, hairpins, labrets and nock-laces of bone, shoil, horn, Ivory and metal, all of which goes to show that vanity is not entirely confined to the more highly civilized being. From wood the Indiana have fashioned musical Instruments, whistles capable of producing tho most hideous noises, ceremonial dishes and rattles, Implements for war as well as culinary purposes, and a wholo paraphernalia used at dances. The specimens In Ivory and bene are lesa massive, but none tho loss interesting. Of these materials gambling instruments, little Images, tallsmen or doctor's charms, and ornaments have been made. ' Upon nenrly every article of personal or household property that can in any way bo carved the Indians have lavishly bestowed designs, figures or letters, as though loath.to see or handle an object without ornamontation. Washington Post THE SALMON. The Myriads of Them Tint Ara to b Found In Mlrainlchl nr. Anyone familiar with the estuaries of and tho bays adjacent to our great rivers such as tho Mlramlchi, Noplsgult, etc., knows that If a fractional number of the salmon that visit them each, say In Juno nud July, wore to ascend above tho tide, history would repeat itself, wherein It Is rotated that In tho good old doya before "tho great Mlramlchi fire" tho pioneer sottlora used to walk across that river on the backs of tho oscondlng salmon. Nearly a thousand of tho sal mo salar are now shipped In lco every weok day during tho fishing season from Chatham railway station alono, evory ono of them being taken in the tidal waters below, extending for thirty miles on each aide of the Mlramlchi rlvor and bay. What myriads of them must thero be, therefore, visiting the lower bay that escape bolng captured and raturn to the seal Those who 'seek salmon with tho fly In their pool up atream for a hundred miles or more from the tide-as I have done for years know that even a thousand fish make a fino showing Iu our biggest rivers. It Is, therefore, most reasonable to assume that comparatively fow of the "spring run" of salmon that teem In our bays ascend the rivers, and If thoy do not ascend, they, of course, do not spawn.

Various Contraband WTaya In Which tha Coatly Drug; la Imported. "Talking about opium," said James Mcllnle, of the city council, who was ono of the special njftnts of the treasury under the administration, "people havt nq idea about tbo extent of opium amoklng In the United States, In 1833 there were about 8,000 opium smokers In the country. Now there oreover 00,000. I was cngnged for a long tlmo In looking after the opium trade exclusively and la the pursuit of smugglers on the Faeillo coast, and I. know something about the business. The drug is Imported In oases, containing forty balls weighing from forty-seven to fifty taels each-na total dutiable weight of 100 pounds. TIicho balls much resemble the cocoauut, but more globular In shape; the shell of tho ball, so like tha husk of the cocoanut, Is, however, artificial, not natural II lio tho tiut It is Ingeniously fabricated from tho leaves of the poppy. Split it in the center and the kernel (opium) is pcen filling about one-half the control space, in color and consistency much like coal tar, tasteless and odorless. Tbo opium Is taken to the refineries In British Columbia, as none are allowed to exist in tbo United Statca. The contents of the shell, when at the refinery, are carefully scooped out, placed in pans and from furnace to furnace, generally six, through different degrees of heat, appearing in varlooa stages of liquidity, yet omotun a a cinder until sufficiently 'cooked.' It in then put into tin boxetr ready for sale for smoking. It then appears aa a syrup of a chocolate color and tasteless, but with a peculiar sweetish smell. The shells aro cure fully rinsed to obtain every particle of thu opium, and are re-shipped to be sold in China, where they arc used with tho betel nut for chewing. They bring from 11 to $1.23 a pound. "This opium Is all originally from l'utrla, and comes to British Columbia from Itong Kong. The crude drug eosU in Hong Kong from ITS to M00 a cam, according to quality. The refined article costs the Chinese merchants 8.'J1 pound. No one, as a rule, handles the retail article but Chinamen. Tho coat o( the refining article consists mainly In tho hire of three chief cooks who receive 110 a month and their board. They are expected to turn two and a day, If thoy do any additional work thoy receive 00 cent a ball. There ura a number of refineries In Ilritlsh Columblu. "Nowhere In the world has the opium habit grown ao rapidly aa In the United State. Any well-posted oftlelal will tell you that At the beginning of this century the opium boblt wa unknown In China. From 1830, when It wa forced Into Hong Kong by Ilritlsh gunboats, and ehpoclally during the lat few decades It has Increased enormously. Hut the last live year In the United States show a greater Increase. Chicago Tlinc. ANOTHER STEP FORWARD IN THE INTEREST OF OUR CUSTOMERS: FREE REPAIRS ON ALL BOOTS NND SHOES WE SELL.
