MR. WHEELER AND THE INDIANS.
A Letter From One of Tliom Brings
Him Buck to Days of Ills Youth.
A few days ago Representative Nelson 1'.
Wheeler, of Kudeavor, la., arrived at
Washington, where he served his Brat term
la the House, his rapidly expanding mail
contained a letter which took him back to
the days of his early youth when as a lum
berman he was accustomed to make the
perilous logging jouruey from tbo headwat
ers of the Allegheny to the out-rushing of
waters of the Mississippi. Iu terse but
picturesque diction oue Thomas V. Jacobs
claimed acquaintance with the new legis
lator, dating tboir friendship from the lum
ber camp days of the early sixties. "You
friend of mine . I friend of yours. I In
dian. You my friend. We ride the river
with logs. Long time ago," declared the
writer, who sought to enlist Mr. Wheeler's
assistance in obtaining for the Indians the
right to go into court ami establish their
claims to oue square mile of land in the
vicinity of ilariotta, O., granted over a
century ago to the old Seneca chief, I'oro
pknter, in the recognition of his services to
the infant republic and the colonists. A
little time later Mr. Wheeler's mail was
further enriched by some documents of
great historic Interest which his new-fouud
friend of the old days forwarded lu authen
tication of the claims of himself and bis
brethren. Among these papere are tbe
treaty made between Coruplaiiter and tbe
first Congress of tbe United States during
oue of the early Bittiugs at Philadelphia;
Coruplanter's last address to his people and
his white neighbors, dated October 10. 1822,
and tbe treaty, bearing tlate KM), whereby
Cornplanter and bis descendants were
granted a certain tract of land lyiug west
of the Conewango river, one of the outlets
of Lake Chautauqua.
FAMOUS NAMES AFFIXED.
Affixed to this instrument, which for over
an epoch-making century has been care
fully preserved by the little band of Senecas
who are residents of Mr. Wheeler's district,
are tbe names ana trioal emblems or
Giantwahia, the C'ornplanter, ltroken Twig,
Dogs-about-the-Fire, Tweuty Canoes, the
New Arrow, Bandy Legs, liroken Toma
hawk, Big Tree, Tbe Blast, Tbrown-in-the
River and a score of other chiefs whose
names once spelled terror to the early set
tlers of tbe state. Following tbe "marks"
of tbe warriors are the Iudinn names be
neath which are placed tbe English equiva
lent Another document of interest to the
historian is a letter from Benjamin Chew,
Jr., of Philadelphia, written at Pittsburgh
aud addressed to C'ornplanter at Half-town
Pa. Written before the days of envelopes
the missive which bore the Pittsburgh post
mark was folded and duly sealed with wax.
In lieu of the stamps of today was the
written inscription, "payd." Mr. Chew's
letter promised the old chief assistance in
obtaining his lands, which were even then
in dispute, iu return for Corniilauter's good
tHcea in acquainting Mr. Chew with the
location of a certain lead mine popularly
supposed to exist iu the vicinity of Frauk
lin. Asa matter of fact, tbe lead mine
was a myth cleverly invented by tbe In-
ians who, by displaying pieces of lead ob
tained from their French companions-in
arms during tbe French and Indian war
succeeded in arousing the cupidity of tbeir
white brothers.
OBTAINS THE LEGISLATION.
Interesting himself iu tbe cause of his old
time compenion, Mr' Wheeler succeeded In
gettiug a bill through congress whereby
Cornplanter's descendants will be enabled
to go into cort aud have their claims pro
perly adjudicated, a course Impossible
otherwise, as tbe Indians, still maintaining
tribal relations, are wards of tbe nation and
as such do not enjoy tbe rights of citizen
ship. In the course of the Investigation
necessary to tbe progress of the bill a page
in tbe history of Giantwahia, the Corn
planter, one of the most picturesque and
beneficently forceful character in tbe his
tory of tbe commonwealth was brougbl to
light. Twelve miles above Warren, Pa ,
stands a monument erected in lt6, by tbe
authority of the legislature of Pennsylva
nia to tho memory of the great leader of tbe
Senecas and the friend of George Waabiug
ton. Cornplanter, sometimes called John
O'liail, was the son of a Dutch trader,
Thomas A beel, and the daughter of a Seneca
chief. He was bern about 17-J7. aud at that
time it was customary for tbe tribe to pro
vide wives for those traders who lived
among tbem. Having finished his trading
at Canowangus, Abeel returned to his peo
ple and Cornplanter's mother then married
a Seneca husband, rearing a family which
numbered among Its members tbe celebrat
ed Governor Black Snake of tbe Senecas aud
Gaueodiwy, or Handsome Lake, tbe Propb
et of the Seneca people and tbe originator
of tbeir tribal code of religious observance.
Both were chiefs, aud, as tbe tribal status
was always derived from tbe mother, she
was undoubtedly of chieftain's blood.
HELPED TO DEFEAT BKADDOCK.
Cornplanter witnessed tbe destruction of
bis native town by Gen. Sullivan in bis ex
pedition against the Six Nations in 1779, a
fact be comments upon in a speech to Gen.
Washington In 1790, and Indications point
to'bis having been a member of the band
who In 177.1, in alliance with the French,
accomplished the defeat of Gen Braddock
at Braddock's Fields. Owing to their fail
ure to keep their treaty promises, tho
Senecas were at this time bitter against
tbe British, a state of affairs not improved
by the conduct of Cornplanter's father In
fealty to whom he journeyed fiOO miles to
visit. "When I started borne my father
gave me no provision to eat on the way.
He gave me neither kettle or gun, neither
did he tell me that the United .States were
about to rebel against England," declared
Cornplanter, in a speech of his later
years. He opposed the tribe's entrance in
the Revolutiouaty war until 1777, when the
Six Nations toolc up the hatchet for tbe
king. In 17110 be captured his father in
war. After keeping him for several days
Cornplanter disclosed his Identity and of
fered to "cherish him in his old age with
plenty of veuison," should he wish to stay
with the Iudians, ang giving bim the alter
native of returning, unharmed, to bis white
children. At tbe close of tbe revolution
Cornplanter swore fealty to the "Thirteen
Fires," and during the early days of the
republic he was tbe most potent factor in
preserving peace along tbe frontiers, pre
vention Indian uprisiugs, eouuseling sub
mission to tbe new government, maintain
ing meantime, a friendship with Washing
ton which became personal In Its nature.
In recognition of his services the Ohio
Company granted the old chief (300 acres of
laud in the "Northwest territory."
A man seems to think if lie can't be
anything else he cau be a politician, aud
uiuybu ho Is right.
HIS DIPLOMACY
i
When Mrs. Hardiman received her
ulster's lettor tolling nor all about
Kuhloen's) unfortunate affair, her
matchmaking Instincts were up in
linns. Of course, as Constance had
said, Kathleen was a mere child In
Soars, only 17. But girls of 17
sometimes developed very grown-up
feelings!
She did not answer her sister's
lottor at once; to her thinking, hasty
Judgment was one of the cardinal
sins. And she waited to think mat-
tors over thoroughly before com
mitting herself.
Pine Grove, Fin., May 17.
"My Dear Constance:
"Why not let me have Kathleen
for a couple of months? The coun
try is simply magnificent this time
of the year, and, although, natur
ally, it will be rather lonely compared
to gay New Orleans, still the con
trast may do wonders toward bring
ing the dear girl out of herself. I
don't believe anyone could brood In
a garden spot like this.
"By the way, an old friend of
mine is coming down from Chicago
to spend the summer wieh me. Her
son, a splendid young fellow of 2."),
is tr) meet her here for a week's
vl-.lt. They are extremely exclusive
people, and, although not at all
wealthy, will doubtless shortly In
herit a considerable fortune from
the boy's god-father, I think It Is.
He is a cranky old fellow (80-odd),
who refuses to settle n penny on his
protego until he marries and settles
down.
"Mind you, not a word of this to
Kathleen.
"Let me hear from you. As ever.
"Pat."
Three days later Mrs. Hardiman
held her sister's reply In her hand.
Kathleen would be delighted to
come. It was the very thing of all
others. Six or eight weeks among
the Florida pines would certainly
be the salvation of her.
It wns an afternoon of June, pale
and sweet with orange blossoms.
Hows upon rows of the waxen-leaved
trees made a garden grove down be
low the rose lawn.
Mrs. Hurdlman came out on the
terrace and flourished a slip of yellow
paper in her hand.
Old Mrs. Ogden, seated on a
twisted oak chair, looked up with
a questioning smile.
"My niece will be here on the
6:20 train," the other announced,
sinking down opposite, "and that
horrid old Billy is laid up again
with his everlasting 'rheumatlx.'
Do you think Claud will be here la
time to "
Mrs. Hardiman stole a narrow
glance into the brown, strong face,
with Its keen, expressive eyes and
firm but smiling mouth. Surely
Claude Odgen was a man worth no
ticing. "My niece is arriving on that 6:20
train, Mr. Ogden. Do you think you
could manage the bays this after
noon?" "Oh, yes," he said. "I think I
can manage them fairly well."
He pulled out his watch.
I've just an hour to make it," he
snid; "I suppose I'd better be get
ting out of this toggery."
The train was as usual, late. The
pasengers stepped out on the plat
form. There were two or three
drummers, an old lady In black and
finally
Surely there was something oddly
familiar about the cut of the brown
tailor-made gown, the gracefully
draped veil that cascaded about her,
dainty shoulders, the military carri
age of the slender young figure.
"Claude!"
"Kathleen!"
He hurried her on to the trap,
and In a minute they were whirling
off through clouds of dust.
"But I thought you were on board
the Silver Star, en route to Austra
lia!" she exclaimed when she fojnd
breath to speak.
"That was all bosh, Kathleen. I
never had any Intention of putting
the oceau between us. After the way
we were broken up I thought I'd
Just hang around until you were of
age." .
"Poor mamma! She firmly be
lieves that she knows my own mind
better than I do myself.
"And suppose I were to tell you
that I was about to become very
wealthy?
"It would make no difference
whatever In my "
Somewhat to the girl's surprise hrt
deliberately turned the horses' heads
and drove back the other way.
"Claude! You're going wrong.
"No, I am not. Providence had a
great big hand In dumping us down
h-e together like this. And we
haven't any right to fly In the face
of Providence, you know. I was
told that long ago, when I was a
mere kid."
"What Is this funny little p1hc?"
"It's the county courthouse. Hold
the reins a second. I've got to get
out."
Soon he returned, slipped a bit
of folded paper Into his pocket as he
climbed Into the trap.
"I think Mr. Holcomb lives In
that little green house over there'
ho said, pointing with his whip as
the horses trotted off.
"But when are we going home?
Aunt Pat will be"
"Just as soon as the preacher gets
through with us. Don't you think
Pine Grove will be an Ideal spot to
spend our honeymoon In?"
"Don't you?" he reiterated, bend'
Ing down. Their eyes met.
Kathleen thought, perhaps, It
would. Nellie Cravey Gill more.

"Quality" method, positively pre nerve them

mine that they are more than a week old.

Hop tlu pmrcMM of decomposition, neither
does the whitt wiiish (or lime) process, i'old
itonige is ine tTeelunl because sometimes the
temperature gets too biuh, aud in plants
where ammonia is used this gaa may be the
means of giving tbe egg an indescribably
bad d:mr. Oats have no preservative quali
ties, and packing in salt simply retards the
gases of tb'i-om posit ion from escaping into
the atmosphere and a id a its ingress to the
interior of Ihe egg. Ho, any of these meth
ods are failures in regard to preserving the
quit 1 1 ty nl the egg.
Ihua it becomes a matter of importance in
your own family t know how to preserve
fKgs perfectly without encountering auy of
the disacreeable features attending: ordi
nary methods.
Money is being made every year by per-
ions preserving eggs the "Quality" way,
with no rijk of loss, because whether one
dozen or l.ooo dozen are preserved the
result fa certain, if instructions are carefully
followed, and when six months old no ex per,
ean distinguish them from newly laid eggs
by any test except an attempt at incuba
tion. In the KnriniE months eggs are nlentiftil
nd the price is low. The farmer's good
wife gut hern the eggs from day to day and it
may be t'le accumulation of two or three
weeks thnt she finally sells, honestly believ
ing that they are "strictly fresh."
The grocer buys eggs and nlaces them in
haskets occupied by older eggs. lie sells
fresh eggs (mm these baskets every day, but
doea not reach ihe bottom until hrnody hens
reduce tlie supply and lie is still selling
strictly fresh" eitirs. sntue of which hava
been in slock six weeks or more. They
have been preserved bv the "oiien air"
method, and if yon depend upon the market
for your supply l lie tjitahty of t lie goods is
alwavs cmiundrum. In the meantime tha
price hna advanced, so thnt egg which cost
l'tc, nre soiii for Jc.
Ihe owner of hens cannot afford to sell
rg at any time for 13 cents a doen, hut
Ik obliged to if he knows of no way to pre
serve their duality perfectly while wailing
for the price to rise.
WHEN TO PRESERVE EGGS.
Many people hive ll.cks of hens that are
prolific layers from April till September.
After that they rarely lay enough eggs to
pay for their cure.
Quoting from our local market, (and we
have kept tali several years) the price In
April is Hc retail, and the grocer pays
from 14e to Jttc In May you can get i;(c
if you h:ive less than live do en iu the bas
ket. In June and 'Inly half the hens are
broody nad prices advance so the grocer pays
ipc and noes imi aK u tnc egga are
strictly tie k n in August Die price ad-
ranees to J(lc, aud in September to 2'Jc,
October marks 20c, Nnvembei title, and dur
ing the next three month fresh eggs And a
ready market at from 82 r to ,'14c. The retail
irne is always from two to four cents
liigher.
Now, It is ouite atmnrcnt that if co-tr In id
in July and August are preserved till iecem
her they will bhow a profit of ten cents a
dozen.
It becomes tdaiu. therefore, (hat th ner.
feet preservation of eggs for periods of four
aud fire months will result in a nice profit
n Ihe money invested, whether that invest
ment is made In hens or in fresh eggs, and
there is no doubt as to (he result, aa the
demand is always present and the market
open.
That this can be done at a nice profit and
never sell nu egg unfit for food, we posi
tively know
For our own family use we preserve the
eggs laid in July and August, and thev re
main perfectly fresh, with no change In flavor,
until eggs nre plentiful again, in the Spring.
HOW TO PRESERVE EGGS. .
This problem has been the subject of con
atnnt investigation all over the world for
hiilf n century, and it was less than leu
years ago that a successful method was dia
covered. The discovery was not made by
us. but we have tested the method thoroughly
and carefully for live years with the most
satisfactory results. We cull It The "Qual
ity" Way, because the quality of the egg is
perfectly preserved. We have kept egga
none thnn a year and they were still good,
hence, we are honest in our belief that egg
can be kept in a perfectly fresh condition
lonccr than anyone needs to keen (hem.
We have supplied a great many people
with the method, and, where instruct iona
were carefully followed, there .were no fail
ures. The process is simple, the labor insigni
ficant, the material inexpensive and at the
end no traces are left to indicate that the
eggs have been "kept." The most skilled
expert p-mnot tell the difference between an
cgir four mouths old h' -1 one laid the day
before, by candling, breaking, whipping or
cooking.
We will supply you with explicit instruc
tions for preserving eggs the "Quality Way"
for one dollar, and there will he no" strings
ttnch"d to the purcbise.
Having purchased the instructions they are
yours to do with as von please. Ymi mny

If you choose, or you can keep your own
ciunsel nnn let them wonder why your hens
produce an nln.: (In nee of eggs at o time
when their own hens .re "eating their heads
off "
If you care for n supply of fresh eggs for
your own tnblc, all winter, this process is
worth more to you than the price asked.
It will no make n bad ecg pood, but It
will preserve fre?h eggs continually fresh for
an indefinite period.
Nothing is used thjit is poison or caustic,
or that penetrates beyond the shell.

JUNE ON THE GREAT LAKES.
Restful, delightful, interesting, and instructive, there
is no trip like that on the Great Lakes, those inland seas
which iorm the border line between the United States and
Canada
And June is one
in the year in which to take
For comfort the fine passenger steamships of the An
chor Line have no superiors. As well-appointed as the
palatial ocean greyhounds which plow the Atlantic, their
schedule allows sufficient time at all stopping places to en
able the traveler to see something of the great lake cities
and to view in daylight the most distinctive sights of the
lakes, and the scenery which lrames them.
The trip through the Detroit River, and through Lake
St. Clair, with its great ship canal in the middle ot the
lake, thence through Lake Huron, the locking ot the
steamer through the great locks at the Soo, and the passage
ot the Portage Entry, lake and canal, across the upper end
ot Michigan are novel and interesting features.
The voyage from Buffalo to Duluth covers over eleven
hundred miles in the five days' journey. Leaving Buffalo,
the steamships Juniata and Tionesta, make stops at Erie,
Cleveland, Detroit, Mackinac Island, the Soo, Marquette,
Houghton and Hancock, and Duluth.
The 1908 season opens on June 16, when the Steamer
Tionesta will make her first sailing from Buffalo.
The Anchor Line is the Great Lake Annex of the
Pennsylvania Railroad, and the service measures up to the
high standard set by the "Standard Railroad of America."
