J. C. Napier, the negro lawyer and
banker of Nashville, who was recently
offered the position of United States
consul at Bahla, Brazil, called on the
president today and thanked him for
the proposed appointment, but de

Bird, a Brule Sioux girl, who Is th
adopted daughter of Mrs. Clara B.
Colby, editor of the Woman's Tribune,
the equal suffrage paper which was
removed from Washington, D. C, to
Portland last year.
Lost Bird is a full-blood Brule
Sioux child, and was found on the
battleground of Wounded Knee, in
South Dakota, three days after that
battle, in which Sitting Bull, the
Sioux chieftain, was killed by United
States soldiers in 1891.
During the battle Lost Bird's moth
er sat In her tepee with her 6-months-old
child beside her, while the tribes
men were being shot down by the
soldiers. A stray bullet Intended for
a soldier, killed the mother while she
was sitting alone In the tepee.
Three days afterward, while some
squaws were looking over the bat
tleground, they found Lost Bird
clinging to the breast of her dead
mother, the corpse of the mother and
the living babe having been conceal
ed from view by the wrecked tepee
since the battle, three days before,
The Indian women, struck by the
pitiable plight of the child, called It a
Lost Bird, the name which clung to
It ever afterward. Colonel Colby,
Lieutenant Sidney B. Burbank, of
the sixth Infantry, has ben sentenced
to 15 months Imprisonment and dis
missal from the army for abandoning
his Filipino wife. The decree of di
vorce, which the woman obtained
also grants the woman alimony.
The bark Octavla has been wrecked
off the coast of the Province of
Buenos Ayres, between Puerto Me-

Details are unknown. Probably all

It Is now regarded as certain that
the United Mine Workers' convention
will appoint a committee to confer
early In February with a committee
of mine owners and operators, and
that an attempt will be made to get
together and avert the threatened

ery precinct was represented. Eugene

made, In which members of the com
mlttee were charged with Inspiring

develoned In the party ln Walla
Walla.
After everv one had been given a
chance to expatiate to the fullest de
gree the ballot was called for, which
