AN INDIAN NOT AN INDIAN.
When He Is Living Away From His
Sand or Tribe.
When is an Indian not an Indian?
Thie point was decided. by Police
Magistrate D. W. Dunable of Peter-
boro' in a judgment recently given
in the ease of Roseel against Nelly.
This was a charge by Chief ot Po-
lice Roszel laid under the• Indian act
0. S. 0., chap. 43, and underewhich
, James Kelly, a ,,Peterboro' hotelkeep-
er, was charged with having sold in-
toxieating liquor to Richard Cornelius,
;an Indian. The case was tried on
Monday, the 14th, and judgment giv-
en a day or two after.
On the morning of the 8th of Janu-
ary Kelly sold to Cornelius and two
white men three rounds of whiskey.
Tie sell tp the white men is no of-
fence at law, but the statute makes
the sale to an "Indian: or non -treaty
Indian" an offence subjecting the sell-
er to imprisonment. for a period not
exceeding six months nor less than
one -month or. to a penalty not ex-
ceeding $300 nor less than $60.
Mt. Haverson., for the defence, sub-
mitted that Cornelius was not an In-
dian within the meaning of the act.
Whether or not one is an Wien: is -
not determined by the color of his
skin or the amount of Indian blood
in him. Cornelius is two-thirds In-
dian and is very dark, but he is an
Indian within the meaning of the act.
Mr. Haverson argued that under the
.act the expression "band" means "any
tribe, band or body of Indians who
own or are interested in a reserve or
ate in Indian lands in common, of which
the legal title is in the Crown or who.
share alike in, distribution arey annui-
ties or interest moneys for which the
Government of Canada is •respons-
ible."
The expression "Ledian" means:
"Any male person of Indian blood re-
puted to belong to a particular band.".
The expression "non -treaty Indian"
means: "Any person of Indian blood
who is reputed to belong to an 'irre-
gular bandor who follows, the In-
dian mode 0 life." The onus of proof
here lay upon the prosecutor, and it
• was not established that Cornelius
came within the Class "Indian or non-
treaty.indian," as. defined. by the. act.
Cornelius himself swore that he wiee
not a member of any "band" and that
he did not receive any "annuity." In
fact. he was an Oneida, but he had
no permanent home. • At present he.
wasliving in a rented house at In-
dian Bier engaged in conteactswith
the white men in cutting cordwood. '
The Cflse was dismissed by the Po-
lice Magistrate.
A similar action against Mr. M. C.
Tooley • of the Queen's Hotel, Peter -
born', wa.s also dismissed under this
' judgment. Tooley had sold to an In
dian named Johnseon.
ACROSS CANADA IN 3 YEARS.
Remarkable Trip Made by English
Lecturer Gathering Material.
A walking geography of Canada
arrived recently in ' Vancouver,
in the person of Mr. H. Haywood, a
fellow of the Royal Geographical. So-
ciety of London, and lecturer, with
Canada as his subject.
To master his subjept Mr. Hayevqod
has traveled from Halifax to the Ter,
minal City by daylight, the tour hav-
ing taken him three years. He has
traveled thousands of miles by rail;
steamer, and stage, also many. hun-
dreds of miles on foot, visiting large.
and small 'centres, new and old set-
tlements, farm and mining districts,
lumber camps, industrial centres,.
places that would afford him an op-
portunity of obtaining particulars re--
speeting the resources of the country.
Mr. Haywood's aim has been to thor-
oughly know the country, from Atlan-
tic to Pacific, its means and methods ,
of transportation; its population; its !
products, and general resources; its
cities And towns, and what they are
noted for, so that he may make use
; of such knowledge during his Jecture
tours round the world. The views,
with which his lectures are to be 11- 11'
'
lustrated, will ehow' the beauty spots
that are of note and interest, besides
Istreet views, cities, parks, rivers, wa-
terfalls, public institutions, and such
scenes as would be an inducement to
travelers and tourists generally to
! visit.
He also desires to induce travelers
from Bombay, Madras, Ceylon, Cal-
cutta, Ausaralia, and New Zealand to
Ifavor the Canadian route in visiting
t England, so that they may beeome ac-
quainted with Canada, its people, and
the many picturesque spots that are
to be seen frene Vancouver to Halifax.
His lectures will also be given in the
, United Statesa
*He will try, while in 13ritish Colum-
bia, to obtain a perfect collectioti of
views descriptive of the country, so
that outsiders, that is, people in other
parts of the world, who may attend
his illustrated lectures, may gain a
good idea of British Columbia and
its many beautiful scenes, with which
the whole province is so richly en-
dowed; its great resources, stores of
wealth, and the advantages to be de-
rived by making it the great highWay

Suporstiti?ns Which Deal With tho
Passing of Life" -They Themselves
Pluming With Modern Thought,
The superstitions which have clue -
tend about the aiming *wanes Of hu-
man life are almost innumerable.
Some, perhaps the greater portion,
now seera to he meaningless, but a
few had in early days a significance
which they have since lost. The stop-
ping of the clock at the moment a
death occurs in the house is atili
practiced in many families in this
country and Europe and originated in
the fact that according to the law e of
several European states it was neces-
sary to have evidence of the exact
Moment of. births and deaths occurring
in the;royal family. When a king died
attendant was always present
whose duty is was to stop the clods
in the royal apartment at the mo-
ment when death occurred, and the
timepiece was thus a mute record of
the event. From royal families the
descent of this practice to aristocratic
and finally to families of low degree
was easy, and many persons adopted
it as a mere superstition without
knowing anything of its former sig.
niflcance.
Turning the looking glass to the
wall is a superstition 'which is Kaki
to have originated in the country
districts of Germany during the deals
when mirrors were novelties. Mirrors
of glass with quicksilver backs are
said to have been xnade at Venice in
1300 A.D. and were first made in Eng-
land in 1673, but did not come into
°Penman use arnong the middle class-
es until the beginning of the last •cen-
tury.eAt first they were regarded with
superstitiousawe, the idea being that
the reflection of the face in the mir-
ror was a sort of specter, Or eecond
soul, of ,the individual. •
When a death eccurreci.the-looking
glass which the person was accustom-
ed to use was turned to the wall, lest
his ghost should .be disturbed: .hy
others using the faritror before his
spirit had finally . departed from, the
neighborhood, there being an idea
that the spirit of the departed linger-
ed about the 'vicinity for several hours
or perhaps days after it had separat-
ed from the body.
