OUR INDIAN SCHOOLS.

EXHIBIT OF CATION

INDUSTRIAL EDUAT THE FAIR.

low the Young: Backs tud Sqnawt Arc Transformed Into Young Gentlemen and Ladles by Uncle Sam's Able

Teachers.

O W N E O W the live stock pavillion at the Fair is one of the most' interesting exhibit* to the scholar and philanthropist. As a meajs to the solution of a great so a a a problem the Indian school exhibition is invested with an importance that ad­

dresses Itself not only to the philanthropist, but to the statesmanship of toe country and the school system as ftsplied to the Indian youth imparts a lesson, inculcates a moral, and in a practical way leacheB the public a

eat truth—thai there are other good besides the dead ones, or that the Indian, notwithstanding the prejudiced and long-maintained opinion that he is irreclaimable, can be made a useful citizen.

Down on t^'&t little list of interesting ground, in the southeast section of the grounds, where the Indians of many tribes hare been campod in tepee, wiffwam, wicky-up, rude house and ana bark huts, the Indian sohool building is located. It flunks one end

TRANSFORMATION.

of the camp, where primitive life of the Indian is portrayed by Indians who have never abandoned the customs and costumes of their ancestors, and where again it is simulated by Indians who know of the habits of their forefathers only by tradition. Within its walls is enfolded the future of the Indian, just as the Anthropological building, away off on the other Hank, contains the past of the Indian.

The building is a comfortable and commodioti8 two-story frame structure, erected by the government. The Indian school Is one of the many excellent government exhibits at the fair, for all the Indian schools in the country, at the agencies, especially located or philanthropicaVy organized by private individuals, all are more or less conducted under government auspices, and are dependent, in some degree, upon its bounty.

The building is an Indian forum. The scheme is to have Indian pupils of the different schools throughout the country, from time to time assemble in the building, live there their school life, and put before the great public Of America and the world what the United States is doing for its wards, and How worthy they may be of such educational advantages as the government affords. The co-education of the sexes has been undertaken, and the Indian girls and boys at the \V rld's Fair lead a life open and free to the public. They work, they study and play in the sight of the multitudes who visit the Fair.

So far there have been three Indian schools represented at the Fair, whose children have stood the supreme examination of sympathising friends and the unsympathetic scrutiny of a curious public. The Fisk school of Albuquerque, N. M., whose children wer« largely Navajoes and Apaches, has passed the ordeal: so has the JSfc. Joseph school of Ilenvalaer Indians and the other institutions are now on trial.

The Lincoln institution like all kindred schools, is an industrial, a manual training school and the mind is not only cultured, or taught the appreciation of "book larnin," but the hand and the eye, and the ear taught—the hand to make and fashion, the eye to judge and the ear to appreciate tha adages of wisdom, the power of knowledge, and to welcome the concord of sweet sounds.

Hourly, each day, the boys and girls can be seen in the schoolroom, in the workshops, at work, the gfrls in the discharge of housewifely duties about theb uildiiig and iutlic kitchen: and on® of tht* greatest pleasures during leisure hours is for all, girls and boys, to congregate in the music-room, and there around the grand piano exploit with voice or deft touch of fingers the harmonies they havo learned in school hrurs The Indians once taught its rhythm become passionately fond of music, and there are adapt instrumental! tists among the Lincoln boys and girls, while they carol and chorus in unison with line effect, as has been attested by the approval bestowed upon them at several public concerts they have given.

To him, and especially to the western man, who has seen the Indian in hiB pristine dignity, wrapped^ in ver-min-covered blanket, sitting in the sunny side of the agency commissary building, it is a strange sight to see a well-grown Indian lad sitting at a piano fingering out Strauss waltzes, or rattling forth "Marching Through Georgia." And remembering, too, the western scene at the agency, and calling to min4 the squaw unkempt and unclean, scraping up the rations at the commissary in her long-time worn petticoat, it is a stranger sight still to see a pretty, daintily dressed Indian fcirl step to the piano, and nicely playing her own accompanimcnt, sing sweetly, ftnd with expressive and sympathetic •o'ce, a coy love song. And strangest still, while she sings, a young lad, Indian youth, wearing gold-rimmed spectacles, turns over the leaves of the Hausi'-. in. ihe agency the** on ng people

would be,"bucks and squaws at the schotfl they are young gentlemen and ladies.

The pupils range all the way from ".".-year-old Nancy and (5-year-old Tom," two cule little ones, to young lien and women ~'0 years old. Some nave been in the school for eight years, others number their attendance by months. But big or little, long or recently only pupils of the scho 1, they are children of one family, though of many tribes and young and aid could give pointers in deportment to any white boarding school, male or female, in the country. They are on exhibition to be sure, are impressed with the importance of having their "company manners" always on tap, but, for all that, they roam about the grounds sight-seeing—showing that Indians have curiosity—and their conduct teaches a lesson to the gum-chewing white girls who express thei* amazement with such inelegant exclamations as: "Ain't that sniptious?"

But it is not atone music the Indians are taught. The girls are taught neatness of person first, and pardonably are impressed with the importance of being personally attractive, and if vanity, the besetting sin of her white sister, is begotten in the bosom of the Indian maiden, it must be remembered that when she first came to school she got into her first petticoat like a man does into his trousers. Making them appreciate cleanliness in themselves, they next learn to appreciate it about them and are set to housewife duties in the dormitories and in the kitchen and now there's not a girl in the school who isn't competent to illustrate, practically, how to cook, even if she might be unable to lecture about "The Art of Cooking" before the Board of Lady Managers in the Woman's building. Sewing follows and in the dressmaking and millinery lines the girls excel, several already having been employed in Philadelphia at remunerative salaries in fashionable mantua-making establishments. Specimens of their handiwork are exhibited, and their bonnet trimming is artistic, while the good figured girls look as if they had been molded in their pretty blue uniforms fitted and made by the girls of the school.

While the girls ply the needle and work the sewing machine, the boys shove the carpenter's plane, peg away at shoemaking, learn the trade of har-ness-making, farming and other useful trades and the samples of their work are creditable—they seem the work of journeymen rather than that of apprentice-.

Drawing, or hieroglyphic writing, in some instances astonishingly skillful, has been known among the Indians always. The Indian pupils take to this art zealously and with pleasure, and figure work is preferred to all other kinds of drawing. Strange to say, too, whife a Van Dyke or Quintin Matsys would insist upon making a Dutch Madonna out of the JewessJ Mai*y the Indian artist, so far as he has been developed in our sphools, doesn't affect in his character sketches Indian features ind distinctive racial marks. If genius for the art he shows, lie is not restrained in his conceptions, but in all else the policy is to make him forget the blanket period of his existence and to remember that he is— an American.

And the contrast a few months make a few years impress. Blanketed and breecli-clouted lie comes to school savage and suspicious unable to speak a word of English, his is a diflicult task, and that he soon gets to wearing clothes, even with dudish care, and learns to talk readily without a perceptible accent, show Indian adaptability and intelligence. Dressed in blue uniforms and militarily organized, the boys have a manly bearing, are proud of their comppny, scrupulous the discharge of their duties, neat and careful about their appearance, the soldierly boy is inspired to greater effort by the approval of the girls.

And what is to bo done with these "children of nature," transformed, metamorphosed by the stimulus of the education, the artiticial methods of

iS C-.UILTY.®

Insist* that All Properly Trandlem Were I.»B'itlinatoly HI II (to. FOSTOWA, hio, Oct. 2.".—Ex-Secre-tary Charles oster was seen last night relative the suit that has been brought, against him, his mother, wife, and others for the recovery of property deeded them before his assignment. Mr. I oster, of course, feels keenly this thrust at his integrity, but does not care at this time to make \ny public statement. Said he:

There is absolutely no ground whatever for this suit by mv creditors. When the case is tried will be found that I have done nothing illegal or dishonest The sale of my business block to Mr Harkness for 110,000 was legitimate, and the books of the bank will sliow where ever dollar of the money went. My creditors will gain nothing by Che suit, while it will tie up the settlement of my affairs indefinitely, for it will mean a ten-year lawsuit considering all the parties brought into it."

Heretofore Mr. Foster has been doing everything possible to assist the assignee in straightening up his tangled afi'nirs for the best interests of the creditors, but this action on the part of the committee representing some of the creditors has had a disheartening effect, and it is thought the action is unwise. Judge Macauley of Tiffin, at one time one of the judges of the Supreme court of Ohio, yesterday stated, after looking carefully into the case against Mv. Foster, that nothing can be made of it, and lie has voluntarily offered to assist in the defense of Mr. Foster.
