London. November 7.—(Special.)—When
Srolng Into the office of a prominent solici
tor the other day, I met Mrs. Maldwin
Drummond and her elder son coming out.
He had Just been making a will prior to
his departure for the front, for although
he Is not nearly of age, he has neverthe
less a lot of personal property and things
that had to be accounted for in case of
the worst. It seems only the other day
that one was writing about him and his
brother as little boys and their burning
desire to be in the British service, and
now their dream has come true. The sec
ond boy was in the United States lately,
hut he, too, lias returned home and is off
directly.
Their mother Is very proud of them, but
she is very distressed about their depar
| ture. When I met her with her elder son
| she seemed to have as much as evsr she
I , could do to keep from crying, and he had
r his arm through hers as if to sustain her.
Mrs. Maldwin Drummond has now gone
back to Cadiand, her husband's mace,
near Southampton. The house Is Geor
gian and very comfy and spacious, like
all mansions of that period. The love
liest mezzotints In England are there, of
special interesting being the one of Lord
Nelson, for which fortunes have be$n
t offered again and again.
I saw the little Belgian princess, daugh
ter of the King and Queen of Belgium,
with Lady Alexandra (\irzon at a pic
ture palace, accompanied by two attend
ants, the other afternoon. The display
was for children, everything of a tragic
or doubtful character having been cut out
Of the display. The children, who are
about the same age, chatted now and
| nga*n ln French and appeared to be the
best of friends. As for the princess alio
! is as merT a little girl as you would
1 i *lnd anywhere and is exceedingly pretty
■ with lovely fair hair. When she Insisted
on removing her hat. quite an unneces
sary attention to those behind her lest ap
parently she should obtrude thsir view,
X noticed her hair was tied up American
fashion with a big bow of black ribbon on
tlm top, a style in which Lady Alexan
dra's was also arranged.
, Afterwards they went on to Marlborough
House to have tea with Queen Alexandra
end Princess Victoria, who are devoted
to Lady Alexandra, she being the god
daughter of her majesty who has taken
the keenest interest ln her even since
the death of Lady Curzon. she calls her
majesty at her request "Godmother," and
on her birthday each year site receives
a fine amathyst from her majesty to
make in time a necklace, tile, amethyst
melng Queen Alexandra's favorite stone.
Every one who possibly can is longing
for tlie time to get out of Iajndon and
I hear many smart people look forward
to going to Monte. Switzerland, and even
Egypt and 'India by and by.
I The United States is also to be a happy
hunting ground for many who have re
lations and friends over there. A troop
, of Lady "Vein” Brandy's (formerly Ladv
Victoria Very) friends are going over
later. Sirs. Ogden Mills has „lso ln
f . vited a large party and so has Mrs.
(^Oliver Belmont. Everybody Is restless
and nervy and society cannot settle down
to anything. All the smart women with
' telatlons at the front aro besieged with
4 requests from the fashionable photogra
phers to have their pictures taken, as, of
course, these ladles may at. any moment
be prominently in the pulbic cyo through
the fame of their mankind. I met the
! wife of a great soldier in Dover street
on Monday, and she said she had already
!* been in five photographic studios that
morning where she had been "taJcen” for
nothing, of course, and she added she
V was so tired she was going to rest for
1 the remainder of the day. Some of the
exclusive women like the Duchess of
Roxburghe won't have their photos taken
an any account which show's they have
no vanity when they allow the most aw
ful old-fashioned representations of them
to appear in the newspapers. For there
is no picture which ha* such a capacity
for making one look dowdy and awful
as an old photo.
American women are entering into
keenest rivalry for the possession of the
?ap worn by Prince Maurice of Batten
berg in the trenches, which is riddled
with holes. The men at either side of'
bim. one of whom was Percy Wyndham, |
were killed. The young Battenberg
prince is ever so popular in American
circles, and as this cap is to be sold
shortly for one or other of the war funds
It is sure to fetch an enormous price,

Indian With 101 Ranch Show
Tells of Custer Massacre
IRON TAIL
Whose profile appears on the new buffalo nickel
irwn luu, me oni sioux cnior. wno
was selected by the United states treas
ury department as a model for the pro
file on the new "buffalo” nickel, has
been In Birmingham a number of times
with the now defunct Buffalo Bill
show. This year he is coming with the
101 Ranch Wild West show, which has
arranged to exhibit here next Thurs
day, November 12.
While Iron Tail himself will readily
be recalled, It is not generally known
that he was a participant in the Custer
fight on the Little Big Horn. For sev
eral years representatives of the
Smithsonian institute in Washington
endeavored to get the old chief to tell
his story of the battle, and it is only
recently that he lias complied. At the
time of the fight Iron Tail was only 27
years of age. In his narrative he al
ludes to Custer as "Long Hair.”
"When the Lon# Hair comes with his
soldiers all the Indians a re in one big
camp to have the sun dance, for it Is
that time of the year.” said Iron Tail,
through an interpreter. "We do not
know about the soldiers coming. Sit
ting Bull is making big medicine, and
we all think of the dance. Sitting Bull
tells us that after the dance we will
all go and fight the white men and
drive them out of the country.
“One day, just before dark, some In
dian boys who have been hunting some
ponies that have run away, come back
and say they have seen in the mud
tracks that horses with iron shoes have
made. Old men laugh at the boys and
nay they are afraid and will never
make warriors. But the next morning I
get my pony early ho I can go to up
per end of valley, .rust as my squaw
gets pony and I start to get on him
I hear a bugle blow.
“We see the soldiers getting off
horses and hunching in beside each
other. Crazy Horflo tells us to fight
soldiers on all sides so they can't run
away. So I take my warriors and go
around whe?e we can shoot at the sol
diers' hades. We make their horses run
away and when more Indians come the
soldiers get into ring. They keep on
fighting and kill many of our warriors.
“When they get Into ring I can see
the soldier chief. He has long hair and
that is wliy Indians give him that name.
At this time Crazy Horse tells me that
all the soldiers with Long Hair will bo
killed and that I shall go to other end
of valley and fight more soldiers, so
they can't help Long Hair and his men.
We drive other soldiers away, and
when we come hack Long Hair and his
soldiers are all dead."

among others, having set their heart on
getting It.
Never i«i the annals of fashion have
fur coats been as magnificent and costly
as they are this autumn, and the fur
riers are expecting the greatest season of
years as for one thing the shapes have
altered absolutely which necessitates
every smart woman having a new coat
01 remodeling her old one. One of the
most aip-esis^ous fur coats I have seen for
a long time was for Lady Anenster, who
was Miss Breese of New' York. It was
of sable with the new voluminous skirt,
the bodice shaped in 18*0 style, and the
sleeves put In at tjie armhole. At the
same house another Chinchilla coat was
being turned out for Mrs. Lewlsohn, who
was Edna May. How she clings to Chin
chilla which, by the way. suits her well,
her last coast of this pelt being the
envy of all and sundry. Leopard skin Is
again to bo worn, and several women are
having pelts brought home by their hus
bands mads Into new elaborate coats.
It was Mrs. Maldwln Drumm.iud who
first wore civet cat and she retains her
aftectlon for It, as she Is having a whole
coat of It for this winter. Some half
a dozen coats shown me at the firm Just
mentioned represented J2a,000, so women
are going to be smart after all, though
so much was said to the contraiy.
Indiana Swear Allegiance
Corn, or maize, as It is properly called
to distinguish It from other "corn," was
originally a tropical growth and the one 1
distinctive cereal characteristic of Amer- '
lea, says the National Magazine. Maize J

Some years ago Miss Mna Dean Pros- «

all Indications It may perhaps bear fruit, 1
since a resolution Indorsing this Idea has c

RIGHT l {OUT FACE-MARC !
IT IS TIME FOR THE SOUTH TO REASSERT .
ITS HISTORIC CHARACTER
- I
For a red-hot criticism of the spirit of depression which has been
permitted to hold sway in the South, commend us to the statement
1ust issued by Wright Willingham, President of the Chamber of Com
merce of Rome. Oa. Even if Mr. Willingham's views are not accepted
by ail of tho people who road them, they are at least calculated to
provoke discussion, to stimulate thought and make people try to
prove that they are not among tho "mollycoddles.” Speaking of the
faot that we have been boasting for over one hundred years that wo
could be independent of trade with the rest of the world, Mr. Willing
ham says:
"For more than one hundred years the United States bus made
the proud boast that this country could live regardless of any exi
gencies which might exist in other parts of the world; that this
country, bounded, as it is. on the one hand by tho Pacific Ocean and
on the other by the Atlantic, separated thousands of miles from the
"Tellow Peril;" on the other hand separated thousands of miles from
the heterogeneous elements of Continental Europe—the rest of the
| • world might go to h-. if they chose to do so, and still wc would be
f| basking under the sunny skies of America—the land bubbling over
j with milk and honey and hog and hominy.
"And now. my fellow citizens, we have an opportunity to illustrate
[ I*10 declaration made by every hill billle orator of the last century
| or more, from the mountains of New Hampshire to the plains of
| Florida and yet here we are, the average one of us. going around
like a mangy dog, whining about 'the war.' You can hardly get an
| audlenoe with a man on any other subject, and nine-tenths of the
people seem to be under the Impression that somebody has done
them or their folks s serious Injury.”
And then after a little more of the same kind of vigorous English,
| he adds:
“The question at this hour is not ‘Who hit Billie Patterson?’ but
are the American people—ilie Southern people—a lot of pale faced
1 mollycoddles, with skimmed goat's milk flowing through their velur.
or have they Inherited the rich red blood of our American siree who
left their bloody footprints mi the frozen valleys of Virginia when
George Washington led them on to a victorious deliverance front tho
yoke of English royally?
"True, we may have to abandon some of our twentieth century
luxuries, it may lie necessary for ub to adjust ourselves to a new
hasis of living—but should we surrender? True it is some of our
folks may have to divert to some extent the stream of gold that has
for the last 10 years flowed from onr vaults and into the coffers of
Mr. Ford, Mr Packard. Mr. Bulclc and Mr. Saxon and other esteemed
fellow countrymen of the north of us. hut we can still raise mulo
colts and Jersey bulls and get there somehow, even Jliough It be at a
. lower rate of speed.
“True ' may be, that our women folks may have to suspend their
suffragette convocations for a brief spell and resume the monotonous
business of looking after tho babies and knitting socks for the men—
! but this 1s tho way they used to do, and they managed to live
through it.
True it may be that our rich dads won't have quite as much
money to spend on their boys in tlie way of Piedmont cigarettes,
patent leather shoes and ice oream clothes, and it may even be pos
sible that the boy will have to learn something about self denial and
; physical labor—but this is the way they used to do. And several of
them managed to live through it. Take, for instance. Abraham
Lincoln and a few other cheap skates
“True it may be that some of our farmers will be driven, against
their will, to the production of Hog and Hominy, Peas and Potatoes
and Sorghum and Cider—but that is the way they used to do in the
old days, and some of them manuged to live through It. j
True It may be that the insincere politicians who has been feed- t j
lng the ‘Dear People’ on glittering generalities and pleasant platl- |
tudes may be called upon to deliver the goods instead of honeyed
phrases—but this is the way they used to do In the old days and the j
country managed to survive it. j i
"One word In conclusion, and tills Is with reference to our mer
chants and bankers. The only criticism I have for either is that
they have been too good to the people. All this talk to the contrary
is nonesense and ingratitude, and the man who indulges in it will waks j
up before this thing !» 0/ver to the fact that he has been making a j
fool of himself.
"Let's got down <*• 5rass lacks—turn our faces to the rising sun—
get busy."
Mr. Wlllinglupv* in thus hitting out from the shoulder, may strike
a Jew innocent people, but it does a man good just now to read such J
.1 satement ns this. It is time for the South and the country at largo
to be taking this Mad of advice.
All over New York the city is plastered with signs - "Huy a Bale | j
of Cotton’’ and "Help the South.’’ Everywhere. In hotels, in stores,
one faces the beggyng plea—"Help the South." The newspapers
of the land are filled wit.V. Appeals to "Help the South," and this ssc- j j
tion is made to appear ns Jt beggar for the world’s charity- j ]
The South is not a beggar. i?c* need to t^g. And It can
take care of itself, of if it csMRof do «o, fhen fh<* eotmer the people
learn that fact and bring in others who ©an take cw*r t.if themselves
in such a heaven-favored land the better !t will jwg.
No other country on the face of the earth has so many advan - j
tages as the South. No other country upon which the sun shines ts j
so rich in resources. No other country is so well equipped by nature \ >
to produce the foodstuffs of grain and provisions and vegetables and \ |
fruits for man’s sustenance, and no other country is so rich in min- \ !
oral and timber ami water power resources so susceptible of (level- j
opment.
If in such a land as this, where the farmers for the five years pre- |
ceding the present crop recoived an average of largely over 12 cents !
a pound for their cotton, yielding very large profits, one years com- I
plate failure of the cotton crop, or one year’s inability, ns at present,
to sell the cotton crop, brings about such a condition as to flood the !
land with plasters begging for charity to "Help the South," then it !
is time for tlie* people of this section who have backbone and stamina
to take the lead and try to stem the current.
The South of the olden days did not do it. The South, blasted by a
four years' war, never asked for charity, and never In those days
was the country plastered with appeals to "Help the South." In the
10-year period between 1892 and 1901, when cotton sold at from 4 to \
5 and t> and 7 cents 11 pound in different years, the South suffered
much, but it endured the situation ami fought its fight without any ‘
such appeals as arc now being made by politicians and others who
are trying to make the South believe that it ought to be a beggar ■ f
and make the world believe that it is a beggar. ; t
Let's follow Mr. Willingham,’* ringing call and adjust ourselves
to the new conditions, turn our face* to the rising sun, stop whining ! \
and get busy. We have got to do tills sooner or later, and the quicker 1
wo do It the better. There is manhood enough In the South, strength I !
of character enough, resourcefulness and initiative enough to achieve j
great things oven under present conditions, and not be downed by j 1
one year of adverse times. “Eight about face—inacli!" should be
heard by the Houth today.

iting 189 tribes or subtribes of Indians.
Dr. Dixon brought back ami laid before
President Wilson a document In which
the chief of each tribe swears eternal fi
delity and allegiance to the American
flag. To each chief Dr. Dixon presented
an American flag, similar to the one
raised by 82 Indians chiefs on the site
of the memorial to the North American
Indian, to be erected by Rodman Wana
maker and others at Fort Wadsworth.
Secretary of the Interior Franklin K.
Lane and Commissioner of Indian Af
fairs Cato Sells were greatly Interested
in the report of Dr. Dixon. It Is felt
that a new destiny awaits the descend
ants of the red man, for this is the first
time that the Indians of the country ever
swore formal allegiance to the flag.
Their words on this occasion are signifi
cant and Interesting:
"Though a conquered race, with our
r ght hands extended In brotherly love
and our left bands holding the pipe of
peace, we hereby bury sll past 111 feel
ings and proclaim abroad to all the na
tions of the world our firm allegiance
to this nation and to the stars and stripes
and declare that henceforth and forever
in all walks of Ufa and every field of
endeavor we shall be as brothers, striv
ing hand In hand, and will return to our
people and tell them the story of this
memorial and urge upon them their con
tinued allegiance to our common coun
try.**
Predicted Air Warfare
From the New York Times.
A remarkable prediction of the part
that aerial machines would one day
play In warfare was made by Horace
Walpole—described by Lord Macaulay
as the best latter writer In the Eng
lish language—In a letter written from
hla famous Gothic "castle.** Strawberry
Hill, to the Countess of Upper Ossory
on October 23. 1784.
Not only did Walpole forecast the
use of atrshlpa In war, but ha also aug
gsated the century In wnich such war
fare would ba waged. He wrote:
"Balloons la a subject I do not In
tend to tap. If they oan be Improved
Into It must be In a centtflry or two
after I shall be laid low. A century, In
my acceptation, means 100 years hence.
* * * After one ceases to be, all dura
tion la of the same length: and every
thing that one guesses will happen aft
er one's self Is no more, Is equally a
vision."
Walpole goes on to apeak of the
"airy vehicles’* with which the atmos
phere nay ba peopled hereafter, aud
aays he does not care to discuss tho
question.
"How much more expeditiously the
east, weal or nouth will be ravaged
and butchered than they have been hy
the old-fashioned, clumsy, method of
navigation."
"X smile,” says Walpole, "at the
adoration paid to these aerial Quix
otes * • • I observe that no Im
provements of science or knowledge
make the world a Jot wiser."
The first successful ascents In a bal
loon had been made by Montgolfier In
17*3.
Counting the Hindus
The task of taking a census of India
must be stupendous considering that tha
population of that vast country numbers
over 800,000.000 persons, scattered over an
area of 1,803.067 square miles.
A staff of 2,000,000 persons was employed
tui the purpose, and the census was
taken In one night in March, at. a cost of
only $673,000.
The difficulties were especially great
owing to the long lines of railway, the,
big rivers on which boats travel some
times for days without coming to the
hank, the forests to which woodcutters
resort, often for weeks at a time, and
the numerous sacred places, which on oc
casions attract many thousands of pil
grims.
People had to be enumerated wherever
they were caught. In the case of rail
ways, for instanco, all persona traveling
by rail who took tickets after 7 p. m.
on the night of the census were enumer
ated either on the platform or in the
trains. The latter were all stopped at 6
a. m. on the following morning In order
to include any travelers who up till then
lad escaped notice.
In spite of this, and owing to the vast
°rk done preliminarily, the results for
the whole of India were received com
plcte nine days later, and were issued
hi print the next day. This rapidity, is
the official report mentions wjta Justifi
able pride, "Is not approached even In the
smallest European State."
The summary tables show that the
total population of India (including the
native states* on the night the census was
taken was 315,16(1,393 (as against 294,361,060
10 years previously), of which 217,586,892
were Hindus, 66,647,299 were Moslems, 10.*
721,463 were Huddhista and 3,876,2QB wreto
Christians. The literates numbered only
18,639,678 persons, and agriculture claimed
the labor of 224,696,909 persons, as against
36,338,041 persons engaged in Industry.
