1 " Thomas A. Kdltton referred to
t: American Indians when he said
tl ..t people were eating themselves
to doath, he could And Twenty corrob
oration of his theory on the reserva
tions. Overeating Is c'oing more to
bring about the extinction of the
Sioux and Yankton Indians than race
ulrlde, firewater and all the diseases
which haunt the wigwam of the red
man.
The great tribe of Sioux Indians is
disappearing. The members, it is
declared, are literally eating them
selves to death on account of the
plenty about them. If corroborative
evidence was riot cattily obtained. It
would scarrtly be accepted as true
that In the course of a night of feast
ing, dancing and story telling the
average Indian will consume from
ten to fifteen pounds of meat, and if
he hat an abundance of food and
can make his own : -election cf the
parts to be eaten he v. ill swallow
without Inconvenience not less than
twenty pottn-i? cf r.'.vri In d slnt!e
night.
Car loids of 'nr.:-.:! rr.fits are
consumed by the ovi-rfH Sioux In
dians, end sor:eca:i:. - .I foo.'s l-.r.ve
become almost as sancd a c:s.i with
the rod men ?.s th fit. r(y.r y'r-w cf
old for which the Siot::: trlt;o is fam
ous. Among the srietiea of canned
goods eaten to exec:."., tin oyster
holds first place. A hungry Indian
will eat half a dozen cans and drink
the liquor.
Besides the harm done by eating
excessive amounts of fool, the fact
that It Is not properly prepared
makes It the more( injurious. There
Is no variety of style about Sioux
Indian cookery, no French methods,
no necessity for stimulating appetites
already overkeen.
A pot full of meat and water is
put on the fire by the squaw and al
?wed to heat, but there Is no defl--"9
time for the meal to cook and
"m joint in the cooking process when
" !:i done. The dinner Is ready
en ever her lord cornea In and
mts about being hungry.
If the Indian is especially hungry
he may begin on the contents of the
kettle by the time the meat Is fairly
warm. There is never any fault find
ing about the way in which the meat
Is prepared, and whether It is half
raw or done to rags, no objection Is
made by the head of the family.
The Indian knows the choicest tid
bits of every animal and how to cook
them. The hunt at this time of the
year gives the Sioux Indian the full
est enjoyment of his appetite, and
during the next three months the
average buck will devour enough
meat to satisfy four ordinary men.
Condiments are in great demand
by the Indians, and the Sioux In
diana probably consume more black
and red pepper per capita than any
other people In the United States.
Their former favorite condiment was
the gall of an elk.
The Sioux Indians are responsible
for the reputation which nearly all
tribes have of eating dog meat, but
there are few other tribes which ever
erred dog meat, even at the feast
of Important ceremonies. The Chey
ennes, Shoshones and Arapahoes,
contrary to reports, never touch dog
meat.
To remedy the gluttony of the In
dians and prevent them eating them
selves to death, the Indian Bureau
la trying to make good housekeepers
of the Indian girls. Ten times as
much wheat flour is used by the
Bloux today as fifteen years ago. It
Is said by the agents that, where
cereal and wheat flour are used by
the Indians, there Is some hope of
civilising them and curing them of
gluttony.
At the schools, among the first
things In their course, the girls are
taught to make bread. But these
lessons have not reached the wig
wam on the reservations to any
marked degree. The Indian cares
little for wheat bread anyway. Ce
reals don't Interest him.
Crocodile Worship.
It was In the very ferocity and ter
rlbleness of the crocodile that the
lLyptlans found the Inspiration for
the cult they devoted to him. They
were mightily afraid of the monster,
and therefore instituted in his hon
or, the supposedly appeasing wor
ship, as though they had satd, "Be
good enough not to eat us up and we
will build temples to you and bow
down to you as to a god." The stud
ents of early history have clearly
proved that the earliest worships of
every sort took the shape of offer!- u
Intended to appease the elementary
forces of nature, or the real er I ma
in a ry. beings of whom men were
afraid.

An Island of M tissue res.
Haytl, the West Indian Inland, has
been the scene of more massacres
than any other place on earth.
They began with the coin
ins; of ColumbuM and the rab
ble rout that followed him.
In a few years Its 3,000,000 ot
gentle, brown-skinned Inhabitants
had perished utterly, exterminated
by fire and sword and by forced lab
or In tbe mines Nest the buccaneer
seized tbe unhappy Island and
wreaked vengeance on the Span
lards. Presently came the French,
and for a brief space there was some
semblance of peace.. But in 1793
the negroes revolted and murdered
practically ail the whites. On ac
count of these atrocities, frightful
reprisals took place when France, In
due eourse, reconquered the Island.
But the negroes bided their time,
and presently rose again under a ruf
fian named Dessellmes. This time
they did the thing thoroughly. Not
only were all the Europeans put to
death, but all bavin any admixture
f white Wood, la their veins, suffer
ed a like fate. In all It Is com
puted that 5,000,000 men, women
and children have met with violent
deaths on this island of massacres
slnoe the Intruding white man first
set foot oa Its palm-fringed strand.

KNEW WHEN KE WAS HAPPY.
The soul of an editor who had
died rf starvation was being con
ducted to the Klysian fields. As
they passed the portals of the in
fernal regions, he asked his guide
if he might not go in and look a
round. The guide consented, but
warned him to stay but a few
minutes, as he could not wait long.
A long time passed, and the
editor had not returned; so the
guiding angel went in search of
him. He found him before a cage
in which a number of doomed
wretches were being toasted on
red-hot griddles. Over the cage was
the sign "Delinquent Subscribers."
"Come," said the guide; "we must
be going."
"Don't wait for me," replied the
editor. "I'm not coming. This is
Heaven enough for me!"
November Lippincotfs.
A Great Novel In the November Lip
pincott's.
It is doubtful if the development
of any of our younger writers has
been watched with keener interest,
or by a greater number of people,
than has that of Will Levington
Comfort during the pist few years.
Mr. Comfort is no literary miniature-painter,
but gets his effects
with bold strokes. Yet while some
of his passages are almost brutal in
their strength, their intensity, and
their vividness, he can, when he
deems it desirable, depict tender
ness and love with wonderful deli
cacy and depth of feeling. Many
who know him, and many more
who know him only by his work,
have prophesied great things for
him, and they will surely be deeply
interested in his latest novel. "Th
Viper," which is published com
plete in tne .November l.tppineotfs.
He has chosen for his theme the
struecle of two countrv vouths
who come to a city of the Middle
West, to bulla up their fortunes.
Bosom friends at the start, they
soon separate, owing to marked
differences in character and teuiper
ment. Both love the same girl,
an this foundation the author has
builded a dramatic and forceful
narrative, which is pretty certain to
rivet the attention of the mast
blase reader. In the course of the
story interestine side-liehts ar
thrown on the shady methods of
some promoters ot suburban real
estate schemes, and it is to be hop
ed that they will serve as a warning
to those contemplating such an in
vestment without thorough investi
gation. Will levington Comfort
is still a vou lie: man. and as hia fir.
tion has shown constant i in Drove.
ment, it is nicely that he will do
even better work than "The Virv
er;" but it is safe to s;iy that he
has not done it yet.
In addition to the complete novel
the November Uppincott's contains
the ' usual complement of clever
short stories, speciel articles, and
poems, with the sixteen page hu

Wine," to top off with.
