At of the meeting a social state A number v ere present, rating a good March, when deputy' y. ith ns, a class electee guards time to the dusi hour was spent. Pocahontas and Red Men The council of the evening was so taken up with business of import ance, ami the sampling of so many good things, with which the com mittee had fully provided to satisfy the appetites of those present, that there was very little time left in which to travel the historical trails of the tribe. We weie, therefore, satisfied to only briefly study the li af, ami drftw the comparison of Thackeray's poem of 'Pocahontas.' With the actual incident as recorded in history, which bears out the opin ion of the chiefs of these leafs that poets must have a very vivid imag ination to produce from such a source po beautiful a sentiment. The poem is well known to all school children, but the actual facts upon which it i:-. founded, licit so generally known, is an epoch in the early settlement of the state of Virginia by English colonists, who at this particular time weie under the leadership of Captain John Smtih, whose dealings with the Indians was on a. commercial basis, and who upon this occasion had penetrated several miles further up the Cbicahominy river than usual, and was captured by a hand of In dians under Chief Opechancanough, a brother of l'owhattan, the great chief of the province. The rank of Captain Smith was- recognized, and he was conducted through the many Indian towns to a personal interview v ith Chief Powhattan. Captain Smith had no difficulty in convincing him of the peaceful pur pose of his mission, and after a few days was escorted to the colony, loaded down with provisions. During Lis stay with the Indians, Pocahon tas, the twelve-year-old daughter of l'owhattan. was greatly interested in the white captive, and several years later was instrumental in saving his life. Somewhere about this time the re lations between the whites and In dians becoming strained, resulting in iaids into each other's territory, in one of which Pocahontas was taken captive by the colonists, and held as hostage for some white captives held by the Indians, and during this cap tivity was converted to Christianity, end married to John Rnlfe. an Kng lishma n. Such is the history upon which is based the beautiful poem by Thack eray, and to the rendering of which we are indebted for the name of our beloved order, hence our pale-face friends will understand why we Red Men revere the name of Charles Thackeray, and doubly so the name O Pocahontas, who was the very first Indian to accept the Christian faith. Wo wi re pleased to have with us, alter so long an absence. Pro. Ross, whose short talk under good of the order, left no doubt in our minds that he fully realized that the task high ideals of the s to call into play but worthy of the orating committee promise to honor the occasion by flying the well known colors of the day, and a lot of ribbons in green type have been printed, and will lie distributed to the public.

Sister navies. 118 South Sixth avenue, and Sister Young, HQ Fast Taylor, were reported sick.
