Indian agents, has tried many ways to

dians had to be driven to their work.
Some time last spring the idea struck
an Indian manager, and lie at once put
it into practice by announcing to the
Indians that the two men who did the
best work on their farms should receive
two fine new wagons. The first award
lias been made at Bridgeport, and Mr-
Much Short Neck and Mr. Iliir Nose,
Cheyenne*, were declared easily to be
the winners. This has excited the In-
dians as nothing else ever has. Their
emulative faculties have really been
awakened at last, and it is thought ;
that the secret of making an Indian j
get to work has been discovered.

There is much weeping that Judge

for that road the entire trade of east-

The Indians of the five tribes in an

the tribal relations unless the govorn-

and pay tliein all monies due them and
give them immediate statehood. '1 In
make it a condition that no territorial
government shall be placed over them.
And it is conditioned further that tin
Indian country shall never bcjoiutO ti
Oklahoma territory. Many of the con-
ditions of the proffered agreement are
such that the Dawes commission can
never accept, yet it must be admitted
that the resolutions adopted indicate a
rapid advance over past conditions.

HYSTERIA AND SUPERSTITION.
Thrived lu the Middle Ajm In Korth-
ern Europe.
Mental diseases, and especially hy-
steria, have, from the earliest times to
the present, exercised a tremendous in-
fluence upon the current metaphysical
conception of the universe and upon
th# whole mental development, RE1*
that precisely because they not only
occurred sporadically, but, as we shall
soon see, attacked the masses in tho
form of epidemics and so becanic of the
highest significance and importance for
the life of society as a whole, says
Popular Science Monthly. Religious
enthusiasm and proieness to the myo-
tic and the occult formed, even in the
highest antiquity, an important factor
of those degenerate and hysterical in-
dividuals who entertained the delusion
that they were in communication with
good or bad spirits, and who by that
channel influenced the masses not a
little. A great number of the priest-
esses who delivered oracular responses
to the Greeks "with strong quaking of
their bodies" were psychopathic sub-
jects undergoing tho hysterical con-
vulsions well known to us to-day.
Ilence epilepsy, which in those days
was not discriminated from hysterical
cramps, came to be called the morbus
sacer, or sacred disease. Plutarch, in
his description of the Pythian prieat-
esa, delineates the typical image of a
hysterical subject who, in ecstatic con-
vulsion, stammered unintelligible
words, into which the priests injected
some sense. But hysteria, with its in-
clination to religious enthusiasm, was
not limited to separate persatas. On the
contrary, we meet with it a. ong all
peoples and in all periods of history,
and among all peoples we meet with
It in the form of epidemic of various
kinds. But never did this disease find
a better or more fertile soil in which
to thrive than in the middle ages of
northern Europe, marked ae they wer£
I by ignorance and superstition, and, ac-
cordingly, we find that epidemics of
hysteria then assumed dimensions sur-
passing those of any similar outbursts
in other centuries. A great many fine
books have been written about the in-
dividual and epidemic crazes of those
ages. The French have made particu-
larly careful researches into the mat-
ter. Calmell describes a great number
of hysterical epidemics of different
forms. One of the principal eruptions
In Germany was demonomania or tcu-
fulswahn. "In the year 1549," says Cal-
meil, "a delusion called vaudoisie pre-
vailed in Artois, that the devils car-
ried many secretly in the night to the
assemblies, where compacts were made
with Satan. Without knowing how,
the participants of the nocturnal meet-
ings found themselves next morning
back in their dwellings."
