Indeed, In 1858 one of | the very flercest battles we ever had | with the Indians took place when Moses was the Indian war-chief and General George Wright commanded the United Stateg soldiers at the “Battle of Yakima River” But af ter Mr. Wilbur became the Indian agent things changed, for the Indians loved him and called him Father Wil bur, and Moses decided not to fight the white men any more. Many times Moses was asked to #0 on a reservation, but he always replied that he would live on a res ervation, but not with Indians he did not know. Many tribes had asked him to be thelr chief, and he wanted “Washington” to give him the land in a bend of the Columbia River for a reservation. It was waste land, he sald, where no white people want. ed to live, but the Indians would be happy there, he knew, When Chief Joseph led the Nex Perces against us in the many battles I have told you about, he sent often to Moses to ask him to come and fight too, but Moses always sald “No.” Still this chief did not have an easy time, for many people said he was a bad Indian, and at last he wrote me a letter which I have keep many years and which I am sure you would like to see, I Moses Chief want you to know what my Tum-tum Is In regard to my tribes and the white people. Al mest every day there come to me reports that the soldiers from Walla Walla are coming to take me away from this part of the country.

SEA REVEALS PIRATE HOARD. Portuguese Fishing Village Endanger- ed By the Atlantic Grows Sud. denly Rich. The inhabitants of Paradelha, a tiny fishing village on the Portuguese coast gome distance south of Lisbon, have been growing rich of late on what seems to have been the hidden plunder of some long forgotten pirate band. Some of them have gathered in ag much as $1,000 worth of treas- ure. That part of the coast of Portugal is suffering from the encroachments of the ocean, Many houses have been undermined in the last few years and have had to be abandoned. Some. times big ellces of dry land slip off into the Atlantic on a stormy night and the people wake up to find all landmarks changed, This is what happened a couple of weeks ago in a furious gale, The waves washed far in over the upland and carried away vast masses of the upper soll, leaving the shelving beach a couple of hundred feet wider than it had ever been before. A fisherman walking along the edge of the strand saw something glistening in the slope and rooting it out of the ground found it was an ancient sliver cup. He dug some more and found quan. titles of scattered gold and sliver colts, When the news got around the vil- lage the whole population turned out to dig. They found still more money, said to dd! but Yakima City “Skookum it Here money to e, put jail omised enough take off irons, but was a prisoner Then goldic v-ehief I am a As me free” % ne tha prisoner gcon as he he re- enteenth and begiuning of the sigh. teenth centuries. There were rings and brooches, crucifixes and jewelled cHalices, jewelleq sword handles and table plate, Nobody knows just how much the treasure amounted to, since the fisherfolk hid it as fast as they i secured it, and when official inquiries were made every one denfed his own ghare. They are digging, and an occasional find is made, The to have broken up the distributed its contents acres of beach. Objects i are picked up as far as low water mark, and some are doubtless wash ed back from time to time from deep water. It is believed that the treasure rep resents plunder from Spanish coast towns. It is said that long ago there were numerous bands of Portuguese pirates which committed depredations on a considerable scale both afloat and ashore and when Portugal was at peace with Spain they were obliged be careful and hide their From time to time other the same sort have been When this collection was doubt, the was far water's be for all stil however, seems and © cache | over many 10 plunder, { hoards discovered. { buried, no enough from regarded as sal { York Sun Very of spot gre aE to 3, OW the time EVOLUTION OF FOOD, Our Ancestors Would Be Astonished By Modern Breakfast Table.

Drop in Prices Has Put Business in Bad Way. Reduction of the price of mother of pearl from $2,000 to $600 a ton on the London market during the last gix years hag seriously affected the pearling industry in Australasia, from where the greater part of the world’s supply is obtained. The most important centres of the industry are Thursday Island, Port Darwin and Broome. Ag the amount secured averaged four toms per boat comparatively gmall, large profits for merly were realized. The divers and crews working on the peariing lug. gers are introduced under agreement with the Federal government. They are imported for a period of three years, and the master Is compelled to furnish a bond of $600 for every man employed, as a guaranty that at the end of three years that man will be deported to Singapore, the port from which the divers are re crufted. Formerly the pearlers paid the divers $10 per month, $100 to $175 per ton bonus, and, in many in. stances, from 5 to 15 per cent. for the pearls won. Though arriving as raw coolles, some of these Asiatics earned from $1,000 to $2.000 per an- num, with keep, The divers, most of whom are Jap anese, are well organized, having thelr clubs and benofit societies, and every Japanese, whether belonging to the crow, tepder or driving staff, la compelled by hls countrymen to loin, Seaton City .
