The other tiny the chiefs of the Iroquois InUtod.Mrs, Harriet Mnvwoll Converse, u well known authoress of New York city, to take purl In 11 council of the .Six Nullum. Mrs. Coiivorsu U tlm lirst whllu wtiinnu to whom tills distinction has lii-en extend ed since the death of the tclehi-iitcd Mary Jamison, who, in I7M, when thirteen jeurs of huo, was taken captlvo by the Iroquois, lived with them suventy joars, was 1111 In terpreter and chronicler of thu events In their history, anil twice married to proiul ttent chiefs, left lit her death seven chll Iron, wliosuiloseciidniilsuruhow numerous among tlm New York statu iiud Catiiiillau Indians. On the occasion of Mrs. Converse's pres entation to this Six Nation council It had met to prepare a remoiist ranee against the Nuw York assembly bill No. 511, which had for its object thu abrogation of thu treaties existing between tli Inillatis anil thu United States. At these, governmental councils -tho highest courts of the Indians thu president of the Six Nations, who Is also thu "lire keeper" of the Oiinuilagas, presides. At this special meeting the O11 omlngus, Keticeas, Tunearorns, St. Regis, Oueldns anil Tolinwaudii Seneeas went lepre.seuted by their head chiefs and sn cliems. On thu morning this council was called a runner or delegate was eommlssioiieil to notify .Mrs. Converse that shu was Invited to thu council. Accepting this unusual honor, shu was conducted by thu runner, u Suneeii chief, to thu council room, and was received by President Sachem Daniel L11 Fort, who, reeogul.iug her as 11 Scnccn. by adoption, presented hur by her Indian uamu Ua-yah-nls ha oh (the hearer of thu law) to thu delegates assembled, at the name tlmo requesting that shu might have thu right to counsel with thuni. Thereupon 11 national vote was taken, she was iinaul J&& uW .f y-iTVAi mm Wr CJ - 'MS. s:-'?W Mits. iiakicii:t maxwi-.u. cokvkiiuk. motirdy grnutcd n voice in the council and a seat was assigned her at thu "east door," with thu Seneca delegation. This distinc tion was tendered to Mrs. Converse in rec ognition of her iiulefatlgablu zeal In oppos ing thu hill No. 511, which as a consequence was adversely reported or "killed" by thu assembly committee, on Indian nlTnirx. In a stirring address .Mrs. Convene ro cited to the council thu rights and wrongs of their people for thu p'ist UK) years, ap pealing to thu Indians to stand fast to gether and endeavor for n whllu longer to remain thu possessors of thu lauds of their fathers. Thu adoption of Mrs. Converse, into thu Iroquois nation is considered by thu Indians a bond as sacred and legal as It thu tlu was one of birth and blood. Mrs. Converse, by adoption a great-granddaughter of Red Jacket, claims an inherit ed right to thu honor. Thu naming and adoption by the Seneca Indians of her grandfather took plaeu in 17W, and of her father in 1M)I. Tho Altitun of Hypnotism. In view of thu reckless practice of hyp notism by soma "professors" of thu acquire ment, a movement lias been set afoot In England and America to secure appropri ate restrictive legislation on thu usu of this modern "black art." Tlio British Medical Journal says "that reliable information is at hand that several physicians of stand ing aru traveling in England under as sumed names and practicing hypnotism upon all applicants, regardless of risk to health and life." Issue must bu taken as to tho "standing" of theso fellows. They belong In thu list of assassins, not in that of doctors, A doctor who ceases to Isi an honorable man, at least so far as Ids obli gations to thu public aro concerned, is 110 longer a iloc'tor hut a quack, and often something worse.

Nature' lturl'iiies. In the interior basins of tho Rocky mountains, and especially in the Yellow stone region, the wear of waters In the ages long past, and of wind ami driving sand since thu waters subsided, has carved the isolated rocks into shapes that seem like nature's burlesques of living creat ures.
