 H. M. Sprague, Boat Buil ler, ParishviUe, N. T.; 



Dear Sir— I can hardiy say on paper how well 

 T like your boats, and your Patent Rubber Im- 

 provement is just the thing, at least that is the 

 way I find it by use of two of your boats the last 

 summer on the river by all my family, and any 

 boat that can stand the hard usage a boat gets 

 with six or eight children in and out of same two 

 months in summer every hour of day and have 

 the boats stand the tear, is good enough and bet- 

 ter than words. 



Respectfully, S. B. Merriix.

 ent Rubber-Packed Boat. Over fifty now

WILD INDIAN LIFE, 



PAWNEE 



HERO STORIES AND FOLK-TALES, 



With Notes on the Origin, Customs and 

 Character of the Pawnee People. 

 By GEORGE BIRD GRINNELL ("TO.") 

 Cloth, 417 pages. Illustrated. Price $2.00. 



Pawnee customs and beliefs are richly illustrated by the folk-tales, 

 and in the copious notes Mr. Grinnell gives an uncommonly spirited ac- 

 count of Pawnee life in peace and in war. There is an account of the 

 defense of a Pawnee village by 200 sick men, cripples, old men and 

 squaws, against 600 Sioux warriors, which for sheer gallantry and in- 

 domitable pluck will match almost anything in military history. The 

 Pawnee warriors were all away at the time, and the Sioux counted upon 

 an easy victory. But the Pawnee cripples and women actually beat them 

 off after a hard day's fighting, and at last so terrorized them that the 

 bold assailants fled in panic and sustained a heavy loss. Mr. Grinnell 

 also has written a picturesque and vivacious sketch of one of the last 

 Pawnee buffalo hunts, in which the Indians commonly reverted to prim- 

 itive weapons and usages, often hunting quite naked with no other arm3 

 than their bows and arrows. A particularly interesting part of the book 

 is that which treats of the Pawnee doctors or medicine men. The state- 

 ments of Mr. Grinnell show the possession by some of these men of a 

 kind of skill iD sleight-of-hand far beyond that usually attributed to In- 

 dians; some of the facts here described are as puzzling and unaccount- 

 able as those performed by the famous jugglers and fakirs of Hindostan, while one of their 

 tricks is a close parellel to the East Indian mango leat. . . . Those who desire to learn 

 of the many other wonders done by the Indian doctors must refer to its pages for themselves. 

 As it is certainly one of the best works on Indian life, legend and character that has been 

 written for a long time, it should obtain a wide circulation.— N. Y. Tribune.
