Reminded Of TheDays At TamaThe holding of the annual Indian pow-wow on the ^'enervation at Tama and the recent visit to this city of George Youngbear, member of one of the tribes living there calls to the mind of Leonard Allen, local merchant, one of the incidents of his boyhood days at Tama, when his father was a practicing physician in that city.The incident was that of an Indian boy having his arm cut off by a train, while sleeping in his tent. Mr. Allen says the railroad ran through the reservation, and the boy's arm, outside the tent, whore he was sleeping, was lying on the track. The train came along and cut off his arm.Mr. Allen says he often went with his father on his professional calls, and ho has a very vivid recollection of that incident.
