To quickly assess the difficulty of the text, read a short excerpt:
The life of the Irfdians in the village will be that of their an- cestors and that of the majority of those present when they are at home in the northern woods or on the western prairies. They will cook by means of camp fires at the doors of their wigwams, and the women will ply their art of moccasin making, matting weaving and bead work, while the men will make birch bark canoes and tan the skins of animals.
Touching again the matter of sports, it may be said that there have been gathered toge...ther in this village the Indians known to be the best canoe men in the whole country. Their races will be genuine contests. One branch of the Chippewa is partial to dugouts, and these boats will be shown in several varieties and will be used in the racing.
Canoe tilting is a favorite water sport of the Indians. They stand in their canoes and each contestant tries by means of his pole to throw his opponent into the water. It is exciting but good humored play.
When the attack upon the block house takes place, the scene enacted will have all the semblance of a real battle, and, while the last fight between the Indians and the whites on the ground upon which Chicago stands took place generations ago, it is of interest to note that there will be present watching the demonstration of the players, a man who remembers distinctly the great fight under the cottonwood tree on the lake shore, in the year 1812, where many soldiers of the garrison of Fort Dearborn laid down their lives under the rain of bullets and arrows of the Pottawattomies.
