a very great ch Of

cne called him indeed, he |
seemed have forgotten his Indian
name called bimself Moses He
was a very handsome man, tall and
straight, and well dressed
He usually a buckskin coat and |
trousers, handsome beaded mo- |
cagsins, and a broad, light felt hat
with a thin veil encircling it He |
always had a leather around his |
waist, in which he carried a long!
knife and pistol holster, the ivory |
pistol knob in plain sight.
Now, Moses had led his Indians in|
many battles, both against Indians |
and white men, and everybody knew
that he was a brave warrior and
could fight. 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

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.

colts,
When the news got around the vil-
lage the whole population turned out
to dig. They found still more money,

It is believed that the treasure rep

and ashore and when Portugal was

PEARL INDUSTRY DECLINES.
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,
