Comanche tribe Is In receipt of a
message from across the wide Pacific.
In a letter recently received from one
of Its members Is contained some In
teresting Items on Red Manshlp In the
Orient, aa published by The Manila
American of May 12.
The Red Men was the first secret
order to Invade the Philippine Islands,
Apache tribe, No. 1, being organised
In May. 1901.
Since then Comanche tribe, No. 2;
Axtec, No. S, and Red Cloud, No. 4,
have been organised. Considerable
trouble was experienced at first In
keeping up the organisation, owing to
the fact that the regiments, to which
most of the members belonged, were
continually being changed about. Thl,
matter was finally overcome and now
there are several flourishing tribes In
the Islands.
Dr. Albert Fensch, the writer of the
letter, was formerly a prominent cltl-
ten of Atlanta, connected with the de
partment of the gulf. He. was connect
ed with several secret orders hero and
will be remembered by hundreds of
friends.
The letter was received by Great
Chief Frank F. Smith and was read In
(he recent meeting of Comanche tribe.
