There I soon to ba Issued from-tha bureau
of ethnology at Washington s remarkable
volume written by a remarkabla woman.
The back concerns Ufa today and In the
paat among tha Omaha tribes of Indians,
and Ha author (a Mias Alloa Cunntngham
Fletcher of Cambridge, who ha lived for
months at a time among tha Omahaa and
baa succeeded wonderfully In overcoming
tha aboriginal reserve and Id arriving- t an
understanding of the poetical and musical
ideals of this people.
For the last seventeen years Miss Fletcher
has been the holder of the Thaw fellowship
from tha Peabody museum, Cambridge,
and this enables her to live In Washington
and devote her entire time to the work.
Previous to her Washington residence she
lived for many years among; the Indians
themselves, lodging In their camps, learn
Jng their language, and studying their cus
tome, music, traditions and philosophy.
She says that she "has never received any
tnauK or even rudeness from an Indian.
' "Yet i found the ahadow of fear of re
moval lurking at every campfire. When I
went first among the Omahas," she con
fessed to the present writer, "the memory
of the enforced transportation of their rela
tives, the Ponca tribe, from their homes on
the Niobrara river to the then Indian
Territory, was vory fresh in the memory
of the people, and so many Pane as had
died from the change of climate that no
one with a touch of humanity could fall to
feol that there were Just grounds for their
anxiety. So I temporarily closed my scien
tific note books and set myself to work to
help."
They Call Her Mother.
How successful Miss Fletcher performed
her self-imposed duty may be gathered
from the fact that more than 300 young
Indians today affectionately call her
"mother." It was not readily though that
Washington heeded her plea that the peo
ple might own their lands and homes In
dividually. Her petition, with Its carefully
complied statistics to show the need of re
form, was SHiit away In 18M, but after long
waiting no reply came back. Then Miss
Fletcher set out . In person for AVashtngton,
sure that If the facts were understood the
cry-of the Indian people for their homes
would Le answered.
"It Is a long story," Bhe says, "and It
covers months of effort and what seemed
to be endless speaking before the commit
tee of congress and before influential peo
pie In the purlors of friends and in the
vestries of churches. At length, however.
I secured the passage of a bill, that became
n law in lt2. by, which the Omanas re
ciived their land in severalty. Next came
niv plan for small loans to help build
homes on that land. These homes se
cured. I was able to pursue my researches
with nn undivided mind."
The Interesting thing, however. Is that
Miss Fletcher conducted much of her In
vestigation of the Omahas while perform
ing the. very difficult task of allotting the
lands which had been granted to them.
President Cleveland appointed her a "spe
cial agent" to carry out the provisions of
the act, and she performed the duties In
a way to make It clear that some women
at least possess the Judicial quality men
are disposed to deny them. .
Indian and Woman Question. 1
"I msy as well say," observed Miss
Fletcher when reference wns made to the
capacity or lack of Itamong women for
such work as she hes done, "that I feel
the talk about sex In work to be nonsense.
If you can do a certain thing you can do
It whether you ure a man or a woman.
"The Indians have no lack of respect for
women; only with them It Is not a ques
tion of sex, only of ability. You see," she
twinkled. "thy have been without the
story of the Garden of Eden and Its Im
pllrd slur upon women. When they hear
it told they laugh as they remark, "White
man's book says that all the trouble came
from a woman.'
As Miss Fletcher talks to them the In
dians become a charming people of whom
most persons are very Ignorant. "The
totem,'' she explains, "Is an example of
that Ignorance. It is simply the sign of a
clan, like heraldry, not a mark at all that
the Indians believe themselves descended
from unimals. as people generally think.
What Ignorant Indians may feel about such
things proves nothing; in every tribe there
are Instructed people who bring down the
wisdom ' f the race, and it is to them that
we must look for our Interpretations cf the
totem as well as of all thii traditions and
religion.
"Of course there are great difficulties In
getting nt the real thought of the Indians
In regard to their customs anil ceremonies.
I suppose it Is because I first won their
confidence that I succeeded as well as I
did. Thry have to trust one Implicitly and
there Is much that they feel to be too
sacred to bo spoken at all. One has, there
fore, not only to get Into their point of
view and think their thoughts In order to
understand their meaning, but one has also
to till with all dl'lgenco and patience the
gaps that thoy leave. Even beyond this
lies the difficulty af expressing adequately
what one has found out.
"Take the matter of the Indian music.
which has been one of the most Interesting
branches of my work. When I met Dvorak
some years ago and listened to one of his
compositions In which he had caught the
melody of the negro song, and another In
which the scenery of Iowa Is reflected, I
polntud out that ha hadn't the Indian muslo
at all. He replied that In would go out
and .hear the Indians. Hut he couldn't
have done that. The Iadlan't real music
belongs to his religious feeling and Is not
on exhibition for the chance comer.
Religion of the lied Mai
"The Indian a religion, by the way, has
been alKtut as little understood as his use.
of the totem pole. He believes, as we do,
In a great overruling power. This pov er
however, cannot, he feels, come near man
save to give him breath. i But tiiere are
lesser powers, like the wind and the thun
der, and these as well have other Inter
medlarles. Tha nearest approach to the
Indian's Idea ol God is ta be found in that
highest conception at the Christian religion
of the imminence of Ood. In the power
of evil the Indian has not murk belief. It
Is man. In his Ides, who works mischief."
Besides her forthcoming work on tha
Omaha tribe. Miss Fletcher completed
few yeara ago a monograph which gave to
tha world for the first time the whole o(
a wonderful lnter-trtbal ceremony that was
wont to last five days and waa used to
bring about relations of peace and friend
ship between unrelated peoplea This work
covered SU pagoa of manuscript and repre
sented four years of steady labor
I get It," she explains, "from the only
man then living who knew It all, an old
Pawnee, who crossed the Mississippi for
ths first tlmo when ha came to me In
'Washington. It was a stupendous task to
get tha thing together and all tha time
there was tha fear that tha old man might
tf)g before he had told m tha whole. But
he did not die and the ceremanr complete
makes a marvelous poem."
Miss Fletcher Is a musician as well as an
ethnologist. She, therefore, has been able
to give to the world In a volume called
"Indian Btory and Bong" the results of
her observation of muslo among the In
dians. One song In this book displsys the
anti-rare suicide sentiments of a philos
opher who has noted the cere with whlcn
a ground sparrow protects the progeny in
ths nest. Another gives the notes of a
young lover watching his Inamorata draw
water from a spring.
"It Is my hope," Miss Fletcher says,
"that these Indian motifs may be used for
songs distinctly American, as the folk
songs of Europe have been used by the
modern school of music from Hach on. I
don't mean, of course, that we shall have
the tunes exactly In the original form.
They will go through an evolution, Just as
man himself has done, until the genius
arises who can put the music of our na
tive people Into a wonderful symphony. I
remember talking with Sidney Lanier
thirty-five years ago, when he played me
his blackbird song, of the wealth of mus
ical material there Is In this country wait
ing to be used."
Miss Fletcher Is now more than 60 years
old, yet she still has her work to do, and
she does It. Bhe was a pioneer In tho
study among women of ethnology. Prof.
F. E. Putnam of Harvard university rec
ognised her ability twenty-five years ago,
when she was doing more or less routine
work under him at the Peabody museum,
and today ha points to her as his "favorite
daughter In science."
SCHOOL AND COLLEGE WORK

now ore. The stables are provided with
screens and are bedded with sawdust,
which Is wet down each morning to cool
the atmosphere.
L. I Zook of the bureau of plant In
dustry, who Is engaged In the development
of strains of corn for the semi-arid re
gions of the west, particularly California,
Arizona and Nevada, Is spending a few
weeks at the station giving attention to
the wheat breeding work with which he
had been closely Identified for some time
before taking up work with the United
States department.
As soon as the nursery wheat Is har
vested Mr. Zook will return to his field
of labor In the far west.
Prof. E. O. Montgomery has been granted
a leave of absence for four months and
will spend this time In assisting In the
graduate school In Cornell. When the sea
slon Is over he will take up study In the
university with Dr. Lyon, looking toward
a degree.
Prof. Martin Nelson will have entire di
rectlon of the work In this department In
the absence of Prof. Montgomery.
Bold Mischief, the Hereford herd bull,
purchased a few weeks ago by Mr. Oreen
of Oenoa, has been sent back to the Unl
versity farm, where he will be put In show
condition for the State fair next fall. He
weighs at the present time 2,500 pounds
and presents a very satisfactory appear
ance.
Dr. Wilcox of the Agricultural school of
Alabama spent several days at the Unt
verslty farm recently.
Dr. Wilcox Is a graduate of the Unlver
slty of Ohio, taking Ms Ph. D. at Harvard
university. For seven years he has been
professor of botany In the Agricultural
college of Alabama. It Is not altogether
unlikely that Dr. Wilcox will be chosen to
succeed Prof. F. D. Heald, who leaves
to become professor of botany In the Uni
versity of Texas.
For the first time since its organization
the botany department this year finds it
self In possession of a small plat of ground
for experimental work. The ground consists
of nearly half an acre adjacent to the new
greenhouses and Is being used for patho
logical experiments. During the present
season the work will be confined mainly
to diseases of tomatoes, beans, potatoes
and melons. One-third of the plat li
planted to corn for the purpose of carry
tng out further experiments and demon
strations with corn molds. About twenty
five different species of corn molds have
been isolated during the last two years
and the entire Investigations on these molds
will probably be finished this season.

VETERINARY SCIENCE. "
One of the Few Thoroughly Equipped
Schools of Its Class.
Veterinary science has become of great
importance of late years, rot only for the
treatment of diseases of animals, for which
there has been a multiplied demand be
cause of the development of the stock In
dustry, but for official Inspection on the
part of the general and state governments.
Institutions teaching this science, of which
there are very few of value, can scarcely
hold their studer.ts until graduation, be
cause of the demand for their services.
The finest school of this character in
America is the Kansas City Veterinary col
lege, located in the very heart of tho
stock Interests. It has a large school
building, equipped with everything pos
sible to promote the study of veterinary
surgery. Including a large clinic auditorium.
Dr. S. Htewart. the president, has with him
a large and capable faculty. Graduates of
.the Institution are In great demand.
Growth of Historic Tabor.
The beautiful little college town of Tabor,
about thirty-five miles southeast of Omaha,
Is undergoing changes that will add greatly
to the comfort and delight of Its resident.
When the Improvements now under way
shsll have been completed Tabor will have
a most excellent water works and electric
lighting system, wide and level cement
walks extending throughout the entire
town and beautiful, wide streets. A line
connects the town with all trains running
on both tha Burlington and Wabash rail
roads. These Improvements win be com
pleted by the beginning of next September.
It Is also stated that arrangements may
be made whereby gasoline motor cars will
run directly Into Omaha. This will make
Tabor practically a suburb of that city
and a moat delightful plaoe to live.
The town Is also experiencing an Imretus
In educational affairs. All who are familiar
with tha history of tho educational Instltu-
Hons In the middle west know something
of the high character of work that has
been done at Tabor college. Its standard
has always been high and the character
of Its work most excellent, but a new In
terest is being awakened in the affairs of
this Institution, and It will result in a
much larger attendance than Tabor has
had In the past. The general public is
beginning to learn of the work that has
be. n done there and It will soon be neces
tary for the authorities of Tabor college
to lay plans for the accommodation of a
larger student body.

USES TO OPERATE THE SHIELDS
Peter Olson Dies at the Sooth Omaha
Hospital as tk Result of a. Kick
n the ' Head by av
Vicious Horse.
The members of the National Construc
tion company who were recently In Brook
lyn have returned after having made the
purchase of a number of hydraulic Jacks
to be used In the construction of the Mud
creek sewer. These jacks are to be used
behind the working shield and will push the
shield forward. It waa found Impossible
to use lever Jacks aa the levers Interfered
with the other operations too much. This
working shield Is to be used at the east
end of the tunnel and Is necessary there
to hold up the formation known as block
clay. This Is a clay which la divided Into
blocks varying In size by a thin stratum of
sand-bearing Iron and resembling In color
Iron rust. These divisions cause the
blocks of clay to fall out with ut warning
on the woikmen below them. For lack of
the proper appliance for working this clay
the sewer work, has been suspended for
several months at the east end of the tun
nel. It Is thought with the new apparatus
the work can be made secure.
' Water Difficulty Not Big;.
The South Omaha city engineer said last
night there was nothing in the story that
the city of South Omaha waa turning water
through Lamont street onto the city of
Omaha to cause difficulty. South Omaha
has been getting water from Clontarf pre
cinct on Thirteenth street In quantities
that destroy the street at Thirteenth and K
nearly every season. There Is nothing In
the differences which a spirit of fairness
will not rectify with ease.
Kick ( Hons is Fatal.
Peter Olson, 280 South Twenty-ninth
street, died yesterday at p. m. trom the
effects of the kick he received Friday night.
He was at the South Omaha hospital,
where an operation was performed with the
hope of saving him, but this proved un
availing. He died without regaining con
sciousness. He leaves a wife and four
children. The funeral arrangements hase
not been made, as the family Is awaiting
the arrival of a brother. He will be In the
city today.
Olson had a team of bronchos. He had
been In the employ of the city for a num
ber of yeara. He bought his team from the
city, where they were originally with the
fire department and were sold on account
of their vlclousness. The men at the fire
hall had many hard battles with them.
One of the horses was Injured a few days
ago and had a wound on the ankle Joint.
On coming home Friday night Olson at
