with red, extended mouth and solitary

The Toctry That Pays.
A poet, to have a successful sale for a
book of verse, should bear in mind one
potent fact that the poetry for which
there is the greatest general demand to
day i3 that which appeals to the heart
rather than to tho mind. That is the se
cret of the greater sale of Longfellow's
books over those of Walt Whitman: that
is why Whitticr outsells Browning, why
a thousand copies of Dr. Holmes' poetical
works arc sold to one of Swinburne; why
Will Carleton outsells Thomas Bailey
Aldrich; why James Wliitcomb Riley's
poems sell as fast as they aro put on tho
shelves, while those of Audrew Lang and
Austin Dobson stand, year after j'ear
looking at each other from tho same rel
ative position on the same shelves.
The cj'nical literary critic may sneer
at Will Carleton, he may pick flaws in
James Whitcomb Riley's verse, he may
tell you that Eugene Field isonlya ncvvs
paper poet, but does tho public listen to
the all knowing critic and buy the works
of tho long ago buried poets whom ho
chooses to call immortal? Ask the book
sellers; ask tho publishers. To defy the
reader's easy conception of a thought in a
poem may bo to have j-our name included
in the intenso literary set, but it will not
sell your poems. Edward W. Bok in
Ladies' Homo Journal.
A 3Inn Who Could Keep tils Tempo?..
"A man may be pretty smart in a great
fcany things, but it isn't everybody that
fnows how to hold his temper," remarked
olarko Warren of New Orleans at the
Lindell yesterday. "I saw a very odd
3aso down in Mississippi last week. It
was in a railroad restaurant. A young
Iaw3er, a mammoth fellow physically,
had some words with a colored waiter.
The negro was very abusive, and at one
itago of tho quarrel pulled a gun. We
all thought that that meant death for
one or the other of them, but no; the
lawyer did not seem a bit worried, and
3omo bystanders took the gun from the
waiter. The latter then followed the
young fellow out to the platform and re
newed his abuse and demands for satis
faction. The rest of ns wcro dumfound
ed at the action of the lawyer. Ho was
evidently no coward, and it was just as
evident that he was more than a match
for the waiter.
"Finally tho negro struck at him,
merely knockinghis hat off. Then some
one hustled him away. After he was
gone somebody spoko to the young fal
low about it, and he said "it would be
poor policy for him to disgrace his fam
ily by becoming a murderer, and that it
would bo just as disgraceful for him to
engage in a fist Gghfc Another thing, it
would do that waiter good to. be taught
a lesson, and ou his return he would
have hini arrested and sent to prison for
a .year or so. That man knew how To
keep Ids temper, and I guess, after all, ho
took tho right view of the matter." St.
Louis Globe-Democrat.

ens' novels ties in tho secret of his ability
to portray with skill tho workings of

them); the pinched face and willing

What a I.Ullu Girl Would Do.
A little pirl I know is possessed of a
peculiarly pugnacious and rebellious na
ture. Ono day, being in a neighbor's
yard, she noticed some heavy wool socks
hanging on tho clothes line and inquired
of a lady of the house to whom that un
usual footgear belonged. The lady t-'d
her that tEoy were the socks furnished
by tho United States government for the
uso of soldiers and belonged to her son,
who had then just enlisted in the signal
service. The child gazed at the uncouth
objects with curling lip.
"Does ho have to wear them?" she in
quired. "Yes," answered tho lady, to keep up
the fun, "he is obHged to wear them."
The child's eyes flashed fire.
"I wouldn't wear 'cm!" she declared.
"I'd sass the government!"
And so she would. Washington Star.
Insects Used For Medicine.
The cochineal insect is in some cases
recognized as a medicine, and at one timo
had a reputation for wonderful virtues.
Honey and wax, often used in pharmacy,
are insect products, while galls, used in
medicine for their astringent proprieties
and tho gallic and tannic acid they fur
nish, are also the work of insects. Lon

subject of course to earlier removal, on
proof of misconduct. Each -judge must
reside in tho district and hohfconrt at
least ono day in each week.
Any Indian engaging hi the sun dance,
scalp danco or war dance, or any similar
feast, so called, 6hall bo punished by
withholding his rations for 10 days or
less, or by imprisonment for 10 days or
less, on the first offense, a second offense
bringing not less than 10 nor more than
30 days of withholding rations, or im
prisonment. Plural or polygamous marriages here
after entered into receive a penalty of $20
to 50, or hard labor for 20 to GO days, or
both, and the forfeit of right to rations
while continuing in such relations. Other
immorality of like nature is punished.
The willful destruction of property of
other Indians requires the making up of
its value and also CO days' imprisonment,
"and the plea that tho person convicted
or the owner of tho property in question
was at the timo a 'moumer,' and that
thereby the laking, destroying or injur
ing of the property was justified by the
customs or rites of tho tribes shall not
bo accepted as sufficient defense."
Intoxication and tho selling of intoxi
cants aro put on tho samo footing, bring
ing a penalty of between $20 and $100 or
imprisonment between 30 and S0lays.
The rounders of tho police courts of ci
ties who arj accustomed to the 10 or 10
days of civilization might bo aghast
at tho int: eduction of these penalties.
Among tho rriisdemeanors, a neglect or
refusal to perform road duty brings a
fine of f 1.50 ,eor every dayomitted or
imprisonment for not more than five
days Another noteworthy provision
proposed in the new regulations reads as
follows:
"That if cn Indian refuses or neglects
to adopt habits of industry or to engage
m civilized pursuits or emplo3-ments, but
habitually spends his time in idleness
and loafing, he shall be deemed a vagrant
and guilty of a misdemeanor, and shall
upon tho first conviction thereof be lia
blo to a fine of not mora than or to
imprisonment of not more than 10 days,
and for any subsequent conviction there
of to a fine of not more than $10 or to
imprisonment for not more than 30 days,
in the discretion of tho court."
This inclusion of vagrancy among of
fenses punishable by tho courts is among
the changes in the new regulations.
Any ono who adopts the practices of
medicine men or the arts of the conjurer
to prevent Indians from abandoning
their barbarous customs is to be impris
oned betwc n 10 and 30 days for the first
offense and not moro than six months
for a subsequent one. The deterring of
Indians from following civilized habits
and pursuits, or their children from at
tending schools, is also included under
this regulation.
The district court judges havo power
to solemnize marriages between Indians,
the fee for each not exceeding $1, and
they are to furnish certificates of such
marriages.
The Indian court in general term, com
prising all the judges on a reservation,
sits at least once a month, and a majority
constitutes a quorum, but any judgment
to be valid must havo the concurrence of
a majority of all the judges on tho reser
vation, and upon a failure of such a ma
jority to agree tho case must be trwd
again at a subsequent term. It lias ju
risdiction in all appeals from tho district
court and exclusive jurisdiction over all
civil cases botween Indians and in the
administration of their estates.
It will be seen therefore that the Indian
courts are cf no little importance, while
of courso tho federal, state and terri
torial comts also have a jurisdiction
which need not be described in detail.

l'rodigality of Life. In Ancient lypt.
The reckless prodigality with which
in ancient Egypt the upper classes
squandered away the "labor and lives of
the people is perfectly startling. In this
respect, as the monuments yet remain
ing abundantly prove, they stand alone
and without a rival. We may form'
some idea of the almost incredible waste
when we hear that 2,000 men were occu
pied for three years in carrying a single
stone from Elephantine to Sais, that tlw
canal of the Red sea alone cost the lives
of 120,000 Egyptians, and that to buii l
one of tho pyramids required the labor
of SGO,000 men for 20 years. London

Tbo Uso of Sudden Wealth.
Tho disposition toward mad extrava
gance so often seen m wealtny young
men is not alwaj's the result of means
to gratify overstroug desires, but the
positive foolishness or mental incompe
tence, which, under tho pressure of nar
row means, would not only never have
developed itself, but never have existed.
I havo succeeded' said a very great
statesman, "because I havo never had
enough to live on."
Tho silly marriages tho old frequently
make are in just tho samo way tho result
not of loss of judgment, but of a weak
ening of tho resisting power of the will.
The consequences of unexpected wealth
aro, however, as often fortunate as nn-
fortunato, for they aro tho products of
the natural character.
We have seen a man-who inherited a
fortune, very large for his wants, be
come during tho remainder of liis life al
most or quite miserly, but that was only
on a large scale the result of the impulse
to save, wluch on a small one had been
pronounced a "wise economy, aggra
vated a little, it may be, by a foible
timidity about spending, which is con
stantly noticeable also in men who wero
born rich. London Spectator.

THE PILE OINTMENT
Goinj: Out by Degrees.
Brignoli was so careful of his voice
when ho had to sing that ho would not
speak at all and was in the habit of
writing his wishes on a piece of paper.
During tho last 30 j-ears of his life he
lived at the Everett House when not on
the road. It took him at least three
quarters of an hour to go from his room
to the sidewalk. He must get used to
the changes very gradually. Leaving
tho room, he would pace up and down
tho hall for 10 or 15 minutes, until thor
oughly "acclimatized," as ho himself
would say, and from there would go to
tho lobby to experience for 20 minutes a
slightly lower degree of temperature.
At tho end of half an hour ho usually
reached the vestibule, where he would
pass another quarter, opening the outer
door occasionally to get a taste of the
fresh air. When thoroughly acclima
tized hero, he buttoned his greatcoat
close about him and stepped out on the
pavement New York Tribune.
United Tor Catfish and Cauglit an Oul.
A man of unquestioned veracity
vouches for the truth of this fish story.
His friend, who lives a few miles in the
country, set a lino for catfish one day
In tho morning when lie went after the
fish he found them in abundance, and
on ono line he found a large owl that
must have been a terror to birds and
fishes when alive. Tho line was wound
around tho body and the neck of the
owl, and tho fish bore marks of the owl's
talons, showing that tho owl had canght
tho fish after tho hook had canght it.
and in its efforts to fly away with the
fish it liad been ensnared by tho line,
after which the fish had its inning by
drowning tho owl.
At any rate tho owl was dead, and the
fish, though disfigured, was still in the
swim and playing tho lino with a rigor
that caused the line to bob up and down
with tho irregularity of tho cotton mar
ket. Tho drowned owl is on exhibition
as a witness to the truth of the story,
and tho fish, though the finest of the
catch, escaped the frying pan. and now
has a steady job as an owl catcher. The
fisher set him for owls. Yaldosta Cor.

Celtic Melancholy or Joy.
In tho Irish dirges and laments there
is great similarity to the music of the
vrest highlands, only the Irish music
having been written in most instances
for tho harp -which has all tho notes of
tho voice is a music of full and sweet
harmonies and has not tho omissions
and deficiencies of the pentatonio scale
in which all inusio for tho pipes was
written. While the melancholy of the
Celtic peoplo finds adequate expression
in theselaments plaintive, wailing airs,
something between recitative and mel
odyanother and not less characteristic
sido of tho Irish temperament is very
truthfully illustrated in their songs of
humor.
About these thero is an inimitable raci
ness, a fresh and sparkling wit. a spon
taneous ring of chaff and- fun. with a
dash of chivalrous sentiment and an airy
lightness which gives to them tho unmis
takable Hibernian accent and to which
thero is no exact counterpart in the
song3 of England or Scotland. London
