Mr. Seger the superintendent of
thff1 Arapahoe Mission school has
inaugurated a system oi lit era rv ex-
ercises among the Indian children
consisting of compositions declama-
tions singing etc. They exercise
Friday cwmings in the presence of
white visitors and do very well far
hetter than might he expected.
Fach one is heartily cheered as he
or she leaves the stand. They receive
first second and third premiums for
excellence decided ly while judges
chosen hv themselves. They have a
singing choir and we heard two oi
the children lead it on the organ
and so far as we could judge cor-
rectly. The order it? good hetter than
we often see among the same mini
her of white children. Much credit
is due the manager and teachers of
these poor benighted children for
the dlbrts made to bring them up to
the standard of civilization.
WHAT TO 00 WITH Til KM.
Ex-President Ilaycj has answer d
the perplexing question "What shall
be done with General Grant?'' Up-
on his return to his home at Fre-
mont Ohio he was met with a speech
of welcome from the citizens to
which he replied savin ir: "Itstrikis
me that this is a go?d place to find
an answer to the question which i"
often heard : What is to become of
the man what is he to do wi.vre
is his place who having been chief
magistrate of the republic retires at
the end of his term to private life?
It seems to me the answer is near at
hand and sufficient. Let him like
every other good American citizen
!e willing to bear his part in every
useful work that will promote the
welfare the happiness and the prog-
ress of his fuiiijy his luwii Ins
S;ale and his country. With thia
disposition he will have woil-: cnt.uh
to do and that suit of work whiej.
yields more individual contentment
and gratification than the more con-
spicuous employment of piu.lic life
from which he lias ivtlr.'d."
EDUCATION Foil Till-: INDIAN.
Education will give to the Indi-
ans indcpeiidcm e of character ch-
sire fur lands in di-vertdiy and for a
condition of law and order will en-
able them to strike out from their
tribal relations and n.-Mtm- the in-
dependent and gnivo responsibili-
ties of citi;.vii-hip ; vill in fact beget
within tliiu tie same desires for
successful life in tin great world that
it does in any other race of men.
Kdii'-aled in the Fnglish language
enabled by education to mi et their
white brothers face to face and to
discuss all the measures of a civil-
ized state they will feel their own
strength ami become men among
men. Educated in the English lan-
guage they will in time forget their
miserable Indian tontuie asthe German-
French mu other foreign im-
migrants who become citizens of the
United State!- lose their identity and
foreign tongue become Americans
and their children grow up to love
thetlagand to venerate the institu-
tions (jf a urael and free republic
which has brought so much happi-
ness security and prosperity to them
so the Indian if educated and train-
ed tu it will luivo a. love and venera
tion for hi.- parental government and
its institutions. Jlis rapid progress
in edueath n and civilization may
disturb ethnological research but
it will be economy and safety to the
government and salvation to the In-
dian himself.
What the Indian wants is the
knowledge of citizenship of property
rights of submission to law. Let us
then look this ouestion squarely in
the face not making ourselves ridic-
ulous by wailing over the very prob-
able rights or wrongs of a lew Pon-
eas to the obscuring of all other
as great right or wrongs of the vast
mass of the Indians. The issue is
sue is upon us the Indians are in
our hands. They will not educate
themselves they will not civilize
themselves because they arc help-
less for these things. The work is
not so great. Fifty thousand Indi-
an children is the numerical size of
the undertaking. Extract from an
editorial in the "Ih'g Morning Star."
AMERICAN POKE-
MM
The French are already sick over
their foolish prohibition of the im-
portation of American pork. They
acted on false reports and now the
trouble is to get out of the scrape
gracefully. Experts are making nu-
merous and thorough tests and so
far have found nothing that ought
to prevent the shipping of American
pork to any country. J no. II. Ranch

ix'crciary oi the Illinois btate Hoard
of Health says that since 1 SC(5 elev-
en deaths have occurred from trieh-
enosis from eating raw ham or sau-
sage As u sanitarian he regards the
d u.ger from this source as practi-
eally amounting to nothing it being
so easily presented by cooking. Jn
Jnuiteen ears out of a population
of .'!d'Jiuil)U people only eleven have
lied about three-fourths of a per-
nii a year. Tin. is a conclusive
rcfulation of the themy thai Ameri-
can pork is unfit for food. Out of
the many millions of hogs that have
entered Chicago in ihe last two
years oidv two died of the disease.
The reports of the Phil: delphia con-

The birthday of Victor Hugo was
made the occasion of a great popular
demonstration in Paris. A large num-
ber of members of the Chamber of
