Van Norman Writes From Winona—Renews Subscription.

In renewing his subscription to The Semi-Weekly Republican, Van Norman writes from Winona Lake as follows: “People have been coming here rather slowly this year up to the present time, but it is looking much better now. A tribe of Indians has taken up its habitat here, living in tepees in primeval fashion. They are to present Hiawatha in the nature setting and it promises to be very interesting. Their village is on the lake front and I pass it as I haul milk every morning just before breakfast. They are very fond of milk and that, coupled with salt pork and potatoes, seems to be their chief diet. Perhaps they have fish also, as they are fond of fishing and occupy considerable time at that sport. This is a fine place to spend a summer vacation and along with quiet and shade and fishing there are the educational advantages, fine entertainments, etc., ad I shall be pleased to see a number of Jasper county people* over here this summer.”
