Last of- the Pottawattamie Chiefs. [Continued from first l»ige. ] derstanding of the treaty at the time that he signed it that there was to be reserved for them a tract thirty-six miles square, and when-he discovered the fraud that had been practiced upon him and realized the smallness of the territory reserved for the use of himself and his people, it is said, he died of a broken heart. Some of the Indians .required individual title io farms in this county. but not near Syracuse. On the prairie west of Leesburg there lived an Indian named Ben ack, who owned a very large tract of land there, which was later purchased from him by the elder Wallace and remained for years in the Wallace family, this Ben-ack had two daughters, the elder of whom was Mary Ann and the younger Rachel. It was reported that he offered the equivalent of her weight in silver to any white man that would marry Mary Ann. but as she was a buxom maiden of a hundred and fifty pounds or so it is doubtful if he made the oiler,.or if he could have produced any such quantity of silver. Sure it is, avany rate, that Mary Anu didn’t- get a white husband. She married a good,, tough buck Indian named Fe-ash-way, who was anything hut a model husband, and who moved iover into St. Joe county, where, near South Bend, he died not many years ago. at the age of nearly a hundred years. There used to be. too, a considerable village of Indians on w hat later became’ known as the Rosseau farm, near Leesburg. I'he elder Rosseau, indeed, w ho was a Frenchman, had a Pottawattamie maiden for a wife. Apd there was -a w-ell worn trail between this village and Indian Village to the east, where abode Flat Belly, lhat passed across the faun of Untie Billy Strieby, south of town And occasionally a dead Indian at-one of the villages was transporte-.I■ for burial to the other. On such an occasion the undertaker rode astride a pony with the late lamented balanced crosswise in front of him, and themourneis, on horseback dud afoot, followed along the zig-zag trail—a m otley fcjid comical funeral proccs<i.m yet attended with tltesame tragcMy that marks all funerals alike, be they those of savages or Christians. Infants were sometimes “buried Tin troughs hung in trees, but adults were covered with earth, much as are the whites, barring, expensive caskets and their gew-gaws that cost a pretty penny and add no comfort to ,the sleepers within them*. In 18-16 all the Indians from this section--Mianffs and Pottawattamies chiefs and bra.', es, were transported to Miami -county Kansas, the ‘"Squaw bucks’’ among the lot. “Old “Bill Squaw buck ’ returned a year or two thereafitrfera final visit to the scenesand hunting grounds of his youthtime and happier years, but remained hereabout but a short time and then went back to his peo- ! pie in Kansas, to be heard of here no more. Such is the story, briefly told, of the last of the Miamis and Pottawattamies in Kost, iusko county. They were a most heroic people, and they loved the beautiful .lake that was theirs and is ours. To them it may have been Turkey lake, but to us it shall ever be Wawasee, in memory and honor of their belied chief, Wati’Wa aus-see. After ceding their lands to the United States they had been left to enjoy their hqntiiig grounds unmolested only nine brief years when, in the fall of 1835, there appeared from the east a strange outfit—of wagons with covers over them and with cookiqg utensils and a camping outfit inside, that stopped near the outlet of the lake where its waters become Turkey And the pale-faced chiefs and proprietors of this outfit announced that their names were Samuel Crosson and Henry Ward, and that they had become the owners of the lands thereabout and had come to stlay. But this is the beginning m another story, that the Journal has not space left sufficient for this week, and that we may tell to you later if you care to hear it.

When the Saloons Go Out The opinion of the attorney general that the county option law went into effect at the time of its passage, September 26 instead of when the governor proclaimed it late in November, though it had no emergency clause to it, is causing much confusion 41 (h> sheu the licenses of Willian Fiedeke and Simon Gould were taken out at the November term of the commissioners’ court, and they will attempt their saloons until next November, though Lloyd Burris, prosecuting attorney, will bring actions against them being, bound, he says, by the attorney’ general s opinion. The rest of Goshen's saloons will go out the 23rd of June. Several of the circuit court judges of the state have decided against the attorney general, and lhat the law' did not ’go into effect until the governor proclaimed it. As you know, the law provides lhat all licenses granted previous to its passage are to run to the' end of the times for which they were issued, while those granted subsequent to its passage are to expire within ninety days after the county in which they were granted has been voted "dry.’ Auto Line to Wawasee The Goshen News-Times is authority for. the statement that there is a movement on foot at . Warsaw to purchase several sixteeil passenger automobiles and establish a line between Nappanee, Milford and Wawasee during the summer season. I'he project has been- under.* consideration for several months. - The big automobiles would also be used to' makes Hips to other points if engaged especially by a party of sufficient size to make the ttfiTprofitable. Similar machines are being used for commerical purposes in many other placesand investigation shows that they give as satisfactory service as do interurbans and steam trains. The big autos are built for durability and are able to travel the worst kind of roads and can run at a rate of from twenty-five to thirty miles an hour on good roads. For SSO a Month Pension. Representative Barnhart will make another effort to gel congress to properly recognize the sacrifice which J. R. Kissinger Os South Bend made as a soldier in the SpanishAmerican war by volunteering to be bitten by a yellow fever mosquito at thejime. that Dr. Walter Reed and others were making their experi-i meiits in Cuba. Kissinger was the first soldier to volunteer, for such an experiment. Other men who volunteered later have been himd-! soinely rewarded by the government. Some years ago congress granted Kissinger a pension of sl2 per month. He is now entirely helpless as the result of the sacrifice he made and Congressman Barnhart will endeavor to have the pension increased to at least SSU per month The 157th regiment association in its recent reunion adopted resolutions asking that congress do something for Kissinger. These resolutions have been forwarded to members of the Indiana delegation.—Goshen Democrat. The County Option Elections. The anti-saloon forces met their severest defeat' in LaPorte county last Thursday. The "wet” majority in the county was 4,395. The two cities of LaPorte and Michigan City gave “wet” majorties aggregating between three and four thousand,-and the smaller towns and country prep cincts instead of cutting, this down, increased it. On the same day Floyd county, down on the Ohio river went “wet” by something more than a thousand majority, while Harrison county went “dry" by 169. Rev. N. C. Shirley, who has charge of the campaign in the twelfth con gressional district, announces thro’ the Ft. Wayne Sentinel, that no efforts will probably be made at present to carry any more of the big counties, since the decisive “wet” tesult in LaPorte. Although the anti-saloon forces carried Grant, Delaware and Madison counties, containing the cities oi Marion, Muncie and Anderson, it is not probable > that they could put the saloons out 1

of Ft. Wayne, South Bend, Indian apolis, Terre Haute or EvnimvUle; nor is it likely that Lake con nJ y could be voted dry, though Gaw now dry by remonstrance Imil‘-« <i it is said that the saloon people will themselves ask an election m Lake county. So for the present the untHtidoou crusade is practically over, with about three fourths of the Mtat<“dry” for lhe next two year; li j mains to be seen hOw the two parties will line up on the saloon qin s tion in the campaign next year. Big Land Deal. r ■ I'he Sol Mier Company, of Ligonier. have purchased from airestate two thousand acres of fine farm land near the town of Paulding, in Paulding county, Ohio. The land, originally bought for its timber, was finally drained and improved The Actim Canal Zone American. The following write-up of the “Acum Canal Zone American” published in Panama, makes very interesting reading, and gives some idea of prices prevailing in that country. It is from the Leßoy, 111. News. ’ "There are 21 pages, size 11x16. Subscription rate $1 per year; single copies, 10 cents silver. All bills for advertising are due and payable each w.eek. after publication. Advertising rate 50 cents gold an inch; single column, each issue. We don't wonder at them wanting the monev at the end of each week, because in collecting‘monthly they would have .more money than an editor should have at one time, especially when you note lhat their last issue contained 1,836 inches, netting the editor and owner, L. L Dennis, $918.00 for one week. One store there bears the name of “The Devil” and intimates that at that store is a “good” place to trade. The inhabitants are' Americans, Italians and of various other nationalities. The typographical appearance of the newspaper is not real handsome in general, the ad. composition being unsightly t in particular. We can say such because we are so far away we know their fighting editor will not come to Leßoy to chastise us. A druggist advertises: “Crisulfina.” the best remedy for Dohbie Itch: A hotel advertises:', “Coffee from 6 a. in. till 9 a. m„ luncheon Ila. m.. till 2 p m.. 75c; dinner from 6 p' m. to- 9p. m., $1 gold. Shower and tub baths $3 to $7. Ice cold draught beer sells at 10c gold a glass and saloons are numerous in the Zoae. On. Sunday, May 16, there was norse racing for big prizes at Panama. The iiewspaper represents a vast amount of labor and is well edited. We-read if much Miterest.” The space in a newspaper* says an exchange, is like a tract of land that is for sale; it needs cultivation. When a business man buys space in a paper and presents the copy for his ad and then leaves the same ad stand for weeks and weeks he does not derive much benefit after the second' issue of the paper. He is like the man who buys a tract of land and plants it to a crop and does no more. Hie ad must be new, display new ideas, new inducements offered. If this is done patronage will come. Dozens of men wading about the weeds along the edges of the lakes in the vicinity of Warsaw with pitch forks as spears, is not an unusualsight just now. The lakes abound with carp, which are spawning in the shallow water where they flounder around in away that sounds like pigs in a mudhole. Fish weighing from two to ten and twelve pounds are being pitched from the lakes by the dozens. All the fishermen of the town are taking part in the war of extermination, the carp being held responsible for the killing of hundreds of good fish.;— Milford Mail.
