Ma6r ] W. II. Ulnpp of the United States
army , commanding company I ( Indian ) ,
Sixteenth Infantry , has kindly contributed
the following on tbo subject , "Tho Indian as
n Soldlor. " The major bus had muny years
experience with tbo Indians , nnd ho has
niado Ibclr habits , mode of hfo nnd warfare
n studv. 'Jho subject Is ably handled and
deserves the caicful eonfiidcratlon of these
interested In tbo wards ot the government !
Judged by the record ho bns so far mudo
. the Indian 1is n soldier Is proving n decided
euccess , but wbllo doing BO ho Is furnishing
nmnlo reason for the reconstruction of
popular Ideas concerning his character ,
temperament and personal equation. Kvory
, ono who , ns a school boy , read tbo delightful
stories of Pcnlmoro Cooper came to bellovo
that the Indian wns stoical and scdato ; that
ho was bravo to recklessness , cnpablo of en
during iho greatest privation nnd ovun tor-
lure \\th | calm Indiileronce : that his ojo wus
truer ifnd his hand qtilcKor than tuojo of
Mblto m < ) n ; nnd , flnulry , that , nlthoUch u
BavnRB , ho wns n , very superior sort of hu-
irfnnltr of tbo mis faceted kind , needing only
to to civilized und christianized to bo somo-
, tnla boiler thin his whlto brother.
A 1'ow WrmiR Itlcas corrected.
, 'Thosd of the whites who have bcon much
incontact with the noble savage have hnd
it hcso early delusions dispelled long since ,
'hut ' the mass of the people still think of
If.ich red snvuRO ns being another "Door
Hlavor" wltb varying tilbal relations. Now
iho Indian lias not nud never had any of
these fancied qualities to tbo extent which
* hltO men hnvo them. In place of being
xlolcal nnd sedate ho enjoys fun nnd rough
horse nlny as much us any school boy ; tie
breaks down and loses heart under trouble
nr McUncts very quickly and completely ;
ho boars pain wllb. dlfllculty nnd In
moments of 'danger is timid. Ho can
on uo bettor ihuu a whlto man
, nnd , perhaps , because lo s intelligent , ho is
n less accurate shot. The Indian Is , how-
i over , very proud and so sensitive to ridicule
that his conduct \Uicti uinoug his own people
ple is molded not upon bis own desires und
wishes , but rather upon the standard of
bravery required in his tribe. This boltiK In
most cases high no Is forced to deeds of dur
ing * which In his own heart ho would prefer
to fcuvo undone.
I As n , Snlillor.
The experiment of making regular soldiers
nf this material has now been undoi going
trial for something moro than a year , ana as
Hated Is piovlng n success.
A company of Sioux Indians now serving
ni fort Douclas , Utah , and nlilcli has been
in service barely six months , will perhaps
filirly rtinri'sonl the condition nnd progress
ot othrr Indian companies In tbo tinny.
When enlisted , tbeso men were mostly un
tutored nnd typical savugcs. Six or eight
nmong them could speak English and could
write. Now , and for some tlmo pant , oyery
man sjgns his numo Icglblv , mid nearly all
can icad simple sentences and do something
with ilgurcs. They have learned to taUo
rcitsonablo euro of their persons nnd clothing
nnd are proud of appearing well. Tnoy bivo :
learned ihe.Ir drill nnd the manual of arms ns
coricctly us do white recruits of the same
Jcricth ot service ( , and hnvlng had tbo usual
two months course of instruction In musketry
they show a very fair record.
iiiBlly : Disciplined.
They yield readily to discipline , and ex
cept that they uro rather heedless and forget
ful they obey orders commcndably.
It has been difllculi to teach them hnbits of
eider und personal neatness , but in these
respects thov make constant Improvement.
It was expected that tboy would incline to
diink heavily and to bo troublesome when
Intoxicated , but from the first those men ,
thouch having the privileges of tbo canteen
equally with whlto soldiers , have had less
drunkenness and fouer duordcrs unions
them than have occurred lu any of the while
companies nt Iho post ,
They wcio , on coming to the post , kindly
received and treated Oy tbolr wblto com
rades , nud so far ns known tboio bus been no
Instance of n qunricl or dispute between tbo
rccos. So tar these mon ntivo not bcon
on parades ns other regimental formations ,
not tmving until now been supplied with full
dress uniforms , nor have they performed
guurd duty , but in both thcso respects they
will undoubtedly prove clllclcnt.
The buttlo tactics of the now drill regula
tions Involve n complete abandonment of the
former close order and precision of move
ment ami with a substitution of extended
order tbo rushes of detachments when ad
vancing and the requirement , strongly
Int-istea upon , to take every advantage of
cover Is a return to something lilto the
Indies which defeated Uraddock long ago
nnd which are certainly very HUe tbo Indian
methods of lighting ut the present day.
Those men may , therefore , bo oxpoctud to
rondilv understand and adopt It nnd to make
cfllcicnt soldiers If occasion arises for send-
in it tnom into buttlo. It is not believed by
these who know them host that tboy will
provu treacherous or cowardly.

Key , regarding tuo other sldo of the ques-
lion , tticio iiypcnr tbren considerations :
First , that by reason of so many of tholr best
young meu being In thoarmv the tribes so
represented nro much lees lll.'ely to engage
In , war against the government , because they
Will rcnlizo that should they do so thov may
have to light tholr own people , and so these
In the service mo to that extent hostages for
tbo others who have not enlistod.
Second , those enlistments furnish n safety
vnlvp for the superfluous onotvy. the restless
dcslro , common to nil young mon , to do something -
, thing nnd make a numo. With iho young
bravo this is unduly stimulated by whut ho
constantly hears of the deeds of his elders ,
and moro still oy tbo taunts of tbo youni :
' iqnaws whoso favor no wishes to Rain , nnd
'not unfrcquoullv these ciuuos have led to
outbreaks itio cooler heads were uimblo lo

The chanro to enlist nnd bo n uniforn.od
aotdier of the Ureut Father sntlslies this am
bition and such nn ono becomes us great u
favorite with the fulr > oas Is the ullm-
K'nlbtra cutlet among the fuir maldons on
tbo Hudson.
U appears therefore that tbo enlistment oJ
these poopla into the
itrmy miiv bo con-
, , dercU.us . in every way a success , nnd ns
f giving promise of llnally settling what has
o long been the vexed Indian question.

The First Presbyterian church was reopened -
opened yesterday after having boon thor
oughly cleaned and repaired from roof to
basement. The cdlllco looks as neat and
fresh as n now building.
The largo nudfonca that assembled thcro
yesterday mornlnir felt comfortable nnd well
pleased with the handsome appearance-
the church. A great deal of the credit for
tno Improvement should bo ascribed to the
Ladles Ala society.
Hev.Vlllttitn Bryant of Mai'shalltown ' ,
la. , tilled tbo pulpit. Tbo congregation has
not yet secured the services of a permanent
pastor.
Uov. Bryant took as his text three sen
tences taken from different chapters In the
book of John , "What Is truth ! " "I am the
truth" nnd 'Tho truth shall make you free. "
Ho said the first seemed to bo it very simple
Question , but it was a vorr profound ono.
t was the question that had kept the world
from Intellectual stagnation. Honest In
quiry always bcncfltcd the race. Some
times pcoplo bccamo alarmed and said
"What , are these eo-callea truthscekora
going to throw the bible overboard ! " But
there was no real cause for alarm. The truth
of God would withstand the closest nnd most
searching Investigation. No man should
nllow others to think for him , accepting
their conclusions without further question.
Every man should think for himself part
of the tlmo at least , Pee many pi-oplo think
of nothing at all. Thcro U some danger when
n stream ovnrllows its banks and rushes down
the valley swooping mills und fences before
tbo rushing walors , but there Is moro danger
turning In yonuer stagnant pond that never
tunica a mill or floated a cargo , where poison
nnd miasma are brooding to fill the air with
dlsonso and death.
There Is bopo in the tendcr.cy of mankind
to Investigate , to search for truth. The
trend of tbo litres Is toward truth. The an
swer to the question what Is truth comes
only to these who search for It. Truth will
come to the pure mind that searches after it.
How sweet Is Uin confidence ot a child be-
causa Its mind has not been corrupted. Some
people can investigate uhorc others cannot.
The eagle soars nloft and builds Its nest In
t ho mountain crag , but the sparrow must bo
content to stay In the valley and build In the
ttces and hedires of the lowlands.
Christ Is the truth. Christ en mo to a
world of falseness nnd aln. In Christ oil
dlvino truth centers. Jujtico , purity , kind
ness and unsclllshucss are exemplified In
Him. Prior to the time of Christ virtue and
valor were considered Identical. In the
Latin and Ureolt the saroo word means oltbor
valor or virtue. Gentleness uas not consid
ered a virtue In man by tbo ancient Greeks
and Homans. Christ taught the world the
virtue of contlonoss combined with firmness.
In closing Hcv. Bryant sola there was a
truth that taught but did not savo. Mon
might know the truth and yet fail to profit
by it. Truth must bo made a part of one's
hfo. As the sunllgbt gradually grows
brighter uud moro searching with the com
ing day , so the truth ot God should fill the
souls of these who seek after it.

Almost any day pretty Iliy Sunshlno
UovcrKlgo of Snn Francisco , may bo found
deep in the stud ; of problems In welding and
forcing over U.T hot blast and anvil In tbo
smithy nnnox of the Coigwoll polytechnic ,
in that city , whoio she is learning the trado.
If the pictures In the local press nro true to
life , Miss K.w marks an epoch in the black
smith trado. Uoth the real nnd Ideal smiths
of this and past ngcs gathered on the persons
; the grlmo ot the business. ' " Long and strong
leather nprons are necessary to protect tholr
I clothing from sparns flying from the nnvll ,
She has apparently discarded thcso ossntlals.
The girt blacksmith has Introduced Inno
vations In costumes that will cause old timers
to shudder. She Is represented with curly
! hair Mowing loosolv over her nock and
' shoulders , unu forming nn attractive back-
1 ground tor a youthful faco. In another she
I is shown toying with n thirty-pound swlng-
bnminor which would give a strong man n
full grown backache. Thcso nro pictures.
They differ from the practical.
It Is not to llio moro common branches of
blnelcsmithlng that Miss Dovorldgo is giving
her attention. Her purpose is to bccomo ac
complished In the making of ornamental
forged iron work , in which it Is rare to llnd
any single plcco that cannot readily bo
manipulated by a woman , or , it when an
ornament must bo put together and llntshod ,
greater strength ls nocdod , thcro uro slings
and cranua nud ether devices In plenty which
enable the woman still to bo mistress of the
situation.
Tbo California World's fair commissioners
hnvo invited her to go to Chicago and sot up
her forgo. Iho procUo place In the exposi
tion to which she will Do nsslgnoJ is not
Imown , but the managing directors ot the
lair have expvossc'1 giatlllcatlon nt this
unique exhibit , nnd have promised Ihnt suit
able provision shall Do made for Miss Bovor-
Idco and her workshop. A place near or In
the machinery department \\ouU bo preferred -
ferrod Dy the lady In order that ( ho 1113v
utilize steam power ns much as possible , but
shots willing to go under auy inconven
iences , ana will do so.
It Is the belief of Miss Bovcrldgo that in
designing curious nud attractive iron ornu-
monts womanly fancy will prove itself more
nlert and dainty than that of man , and
thereby Doth Increase present demands for
such hnndiworic nud create now markets. As
part of her scheme of manual education she
is to study doslirnlng , drawing and modeling ,
and she Is encouraged In thinking that she
may rlso auovo mediocrity because her pres
ent oxponcifco has shown that she Is gifted
with a IIuo appreciation of form , relations
and color. When to such natural adapta
tions the lady has nddod the llnlsh of llio
schools slip will call herself a blacksmith ,
out not bofoio.
The Woman's Dormitory association of
Ch.oago proposes to erect flvo dormitories
for the accommodation of the great army of
women who will visit the fair , especially
these kiiowa ns "Industrial women" . To
accomplish this a stock company has been
organi/ed , known as the "Woman's Dormi
tory Association of tbo Columbian Exposi
tion , " with stoclc at $10 per share , this to
bo applied la payment for room and
lodging , at the rate ot 40 cents per day. Mrs.
Helen M. Earner , secretary of the associa
tion , writes that she "is more and moro con
vinced that woman who come to the fulr
will tlnd that they cannot get a room within
miles of tuo grounds , und will hnvo to
patronize the overcrowded stieot cars and-
spend u couple of hours lu golut ; back and
forth. They will greatly regret that they
did not sco their opportunity and seize It before
fore it 1 } too lato. " Sbo also adds , "if your
state does not see fit to take tbo 100 shares
ether states uro clamoring for moro than wo
have assigned to them , but I hope there will
bo a hundred women In Nebiaslca who will
want the advantages of this wonderful plan. "
Those buildlncs will bo attractive In ao-
slgn , and all orecteJ near the exposition
grounds. Ono will ba sot apart for the ex
clusive use of families- , provided all slock Is
taken by the 1st of September.
All Irqulrlcs nnd applications will rccclvo

The queer characters of the national cap
ital are not confined nlono to the mules.
There uro several females in the category.
In East VVashlngton resides a comely dame ,
young nnd not unprepossessing , who olios
out an existence In a novel but uncanny man
ner , says the Philadelphia Bulletin. She
carefully watches the death ilotlces In the
daily papers , and when a person of wealth ,
or oven moderate means dies , she waits until
a day or txvo after the funeral , and then goes
to the house , and represents heisolf as a
young ludy of good family , but reduced cir
cumstances. She stales that her father Is
an Invalid ( should the party who hiis dc-
Karted be a male ) and asus for the clothing
ift DV the dead man , as her father is almost
dotslltuo of a wardrobe. In case the deceased
is a woman she appears In a rather dilapi
dated outfit and so'liclts the clothing for her
self. She is usually successful In getting
many good garments , which are promptly
disposed of to some second-hand dealer.
The exquisite toilets that are now dis
played at all the fashionable summer resorts
ore'dollcious examples of the tasio and In
genuity of the modern dressmaker. There
Is a quaint and alluring simplicity coupled
with line artlstlo grace notlcoablo aiioiii ; the
fresh toilets of flowered muslin , lawn , sheer
wool , etc. , and a pootlo dignity lu the classic
fall and sweep of undieisod slIUs and satins ,
and all the ptolty girls In tbo world of fashIon -
Ion are just now looking their very best In
tholr Jaunty waists und waistcoats , tholr nlry
gowns und the additional dainty elegances In
the shape of lace capes , fichus , bnrlhas , pic
ture hats and leagues of guy ribbon guinl-
tures.
The French bicycling costume for ladies
consists ot a tunic and knickorDockers mudo
oxaotlv llko these worn by men , except that
the tunic feminine is a little longer than that
worn by men , The most approved costum
for the muld-a-wbool In England has a full
divided skirt , suppoitod fiom the shoulders
Dy suspondorii , a light ullk blouse held In
place by a rubuer band , a Windsor tie at the
neck , a Jacket llko the skltt , beneath all a
"union suit" of wool.
Ono of the most original designs In paper
weights may bo secured at a very small cost
and with little trounlo. A tiny wooden bar
rel , which can Do bought for 10 cents , Is balf
filled with shot , held In place by a Dlt of
cardboard Just lining the barrel. In the
cover of the little keg bora a hole , through
which llio pen may bo thrust , and at ono sldo
stick a small pouwlpor in the form of a but
terfly. The barrel may bo jrlldod or sprayed
with a tow tinted blossoms , and when tin-
[ shod presents a very unlqua appearance.

the morning In u loose wrapper , and donning
n well-made gown which she wears with the
grace of a French woman , to oo all vivacity
nnd good humor at the ladles' lunch or garden -
don fete. And finally that , despite the keen
eye for tno matcnal side of life , she hat a
ready appreciation of literature and art , nnd
exacting ns she Is toward men , there lurks
In her aaontnncntnl vein which causes her
to cast n halo of romnnco nround thu most
prosaic and dollar-grabbing husbands. For
allot which the American woman returns
most graceful ihuhks , though she has known
it all the tlmo.
The Sioux maiden Is to bo Immortalized In
iiinrblo for the World's fair. Of course It
will bo the work of an artistic and pootlo
soul. Fiction rather than reality will bo con
spicuous. And It is well that It should bo
so. The copper-colored queens of the teepee
nro relegated to the realms of fiction. A
sculptor would not dare tnko the modern
Sioux maiden for a model. The result would
shock the aesthetic cast nnd rudely shatter
Boston notions of squaw beauty. The real
Sioux maiden Is several leagues removed
from the Minnchaha or Pocnhontat ideal.
The men of the rnco nro sometimes speci
mens of phrsioul bcautr , but the women !
They show that they tire tellers nnd carriers
of burdens. Tholr shoulders nro high and
tholr back broad. The head scorns to rest on
the shoulders minus the ncok , and Is bent
forward , with a low cast of cojntonanco that
speaks only of serfdom. And that Is what
the Indian woman Is a slave to the head of
the family. It may bo the father of her child
or the oldest raulo child himself If the fattier
should bo taken nwav. It would bo n difll
cult matter to tlnd In" roil Ufa n full-blooded
Sioux maiden who Is without clvlllzod trainIng -
Ing nround whom to build up n pathetic
romnnco to the extent that it could cam the
sympathy ot the public at largo If reproduced
trua to life In inarblo eurvos ,
This Is the tlmo ot perfumed breaths. A
woman expend * ninny a dollar on llttlo cop-
sulos that the wily druggist has boon nt great
pains to concoct , anil she over after brentus
upon you a composition of delicate odors thai
makes ono conjure up nit the good things to
smell and cat that wo hnvo over known. It
Is a most dainty f cl whlohov'or way you look
at it , and ono that cannot hnvo ono word said
