of the lrualiVairt.'a tribe of Indians eet
tled in northwitern Arizona. (J'd
Tommy i perliapH Siim bis."delu'JiJ iii1
tonriie," had ai almost niirac-ulo'is a.--ceiiilancy
over tlie chiefs and liead meu
of this tribe, and, though his native
eloquence was ecomled only by the
scantiest allowances of rations from the
subsidence stores of the camp, he was
loved and trusted by these childlike
allies. To hear nim coaxing back a
sulky warrior to good humor was
uonietliiiig to be long remembered.
J "Come, now." he lias been heard to
say, "sliure, phat is de matther wid
ye? Have yes iver axed ine for any
thin' that Oi didn't promise it to yez?"
Yet Tommy's promises were always
kept.
Suddenly one day the Hualpais, like
a Hash of lightning out of a clear sky,
went on the warpath and lired on the
agency buildings before leaving for
their stronghola in the Canon of the
Colorado. No one knew the cause of
their sudden treaehery, and Tommy
Uyrne was one of those who realized
how much it would cost Uncle !Sam in
blood and treasure if the outbreak were
not stopped at once.
Without waitiajj for his spirited lit
tle horse to be saddled he threw him
self across its back and swept out into
the hills after the fugitives. When
the 1 1 u al pais saw the cloud of dust
coming they blazed into it, but Tom
my was untouched, and dashed gal
lantly up, his horse white with foam,
to the knot of chiefs who stood await
ing h'li.
A ;iitth,j! Indians were sullen, but
tli "- soon melted enough to tell the
story of their grievances. The new
agirnt had been robbing them in the
most barefaced manner, and in their
ignorance they imagined it to be Capt.
liyrno's duly to regulate all the nlTai re
in his camp. They did not want to
'ui t him and would let him go safely
back, but for them there was nothing
but the varp:ith.
uCome back with me," said Tommy,
gently. "I will see that you are
righted."
back they went, following that one
unarmed man. Straight to the beef
scales proceeded the otlicer, ami in a
few minutes he had detected the man
ner in which false weight hail been se
cured by tampering with the poise. A
Texas steer, which would not weigh
more than 8 W pounds stood at 1.7J ,
and of course other articles followed in
the same ratio.
Tommy seized upon the agency and
took charge; the Ilualpais were per
fectly satisfied, and the agent left that
night for California. Thus was a bit
ter war averted by the prompt action
of a plain, unlettered man. w ho had
no ideas about managing savages be
yond that of treating them with kind
ness and justice. Chicago Tribune.

lie Was Premature.
An old farmer from one of the back
counties was the tlefendant in a suit
for a piece of land, and lie had been
making a strong light for it. When
the attorney for the other side begaa
his speech he said:
"May it please the court, I take the
ground "
The old farmer jumped up and sang
out:
"What's that? What's that?"
The judge called him down.
"May it please the court," began the
attorney again, not noticing the in
terruption, "I take the ground "
"No, I'll be d d if you do, either,"
shomed the old farmer; "anyhow pot

The line for contempt was remitted.

A DETERMINED CLIENT
IIow SUe Rained Funds for Her Salt and
Exhorted tier Lawyer.
"My first case," said a well-knowa
Harlem lawyer to a N. Y. Commercial
Advertiser man. "was a very unique
one. An Irish family of the name of
Murphy, living up on the rocks in one
of the fast disappearing remnants of
Shanty-town, were fraudulently evicted
from their tumbledown cabin by a
rascally landlord. The practical head
of the household was the wife, and she
determined to fight the matter out.
For three weeks the Murphys, children,
furniture and all.- lived in the back
yard of their former home with noth
ing between them and heaven but a
flimsy tent made of old sheets, while
Mrs. Murphy tramped around town
looking for a lawyer who would take
their case for nothing.
"One day she charged into my office
and told me her story with the stereo
typed exactness that comes from fre
quent repetition. The case seemed to
be a worthy one, and as I wasn't over
burdened with work I agreed to take it
free of charge and reinstate the Mur
phys in their dilapidated homestead.
She wanted to get out a free summons
against the landlord and waive several
other small but necessary expenses,
but I told her it would b. more politic
to pay these. a the total wotiM not

reappeared with her hands full of silver,
which she poured upon my desk. 'Mrs.

a gleam of triumph in the gray eye,

the graces and gifts of individual life

' generation because the young mother
J has not learned the secret of living her
life independently.
Whatever emergency of life may
have called out her unselfishness, there
it is, anil, as I said before, there
is altogether too much of it.
Why? Because there is such a
thing as an unselfishness that passes
beyond its proper bounds and becomes
mean-spirited.
It lays aside that proper recognition
of self which commands respect, and
which is wholly necessary for individ
ual well being. That the mother
should be the head, the brains of her
family, what is more lifting? That
she should be hands and feet, that she
should serve before them like a hired
..ssistant, a thousand times no!
These unsellish women, in their
anxiety to exemplify the golden rule,
quite forget that self, after all, under
lies its measure of values. If a great
many women treated their neighbors
no better than they treated themselves
this would be a sad world for neigh
borliness. And this unselfishness issure to work
mischief in a family, too. Tor unself
ishness is unlike most other virtues,
in that it breeds its opposites, not its
own kind.
In a family where the wife, or the
mother, or the elder daughter, is anx
iously unselfish; where she watches
every opportunity to do for the oilier
members of the family what there is
every good reason they should do for
themselves, these others learn quickly
enough lirst to accept it. then to as
sume it, and finally to demand it.
Ami so there comes out of the home
of the unsellish woman a flock of care
less, self-seeking' children, intent on
themselves, criminally heedless of ev
erybody else, trampling on the rights
erf others, and having to unlearn, per
haps late in life, the selfish lessons
they learned at their unsellih mother's
knee.
Rarely is it that the lesson is learned
as it should be, and so is kept up thu
army of selfish men and women who
make half the burden and unhappi
ness of living.
COT AHEAD OF THE BARBER.
It Took Breath, but the Scheme Worked
Like a Charm.
Detroit has a barber who if talking
never existed would have invented it,
and still he is an excellent barber with
a good patronage. Since last Tuesday
evening, however, he has been wear
ing a countenance of gloom and disajr
pointment, and some of his friends
think he is contemplating suicide.
At 7 o'clock of the evening men
tioned a man evidently from Chicago
came in, says the Free Press, and re
moving his external integuments took
a chair.
"Shave, sir?" inquired the barber,
getting his implements ready.
"Certainly," responded the customer,
fixing himself comfortably. "I haven't
been shaved for three days owing to
the fact that several days ago, in re
sponse to an invitation from a man
whom I know only slightly, having
met him but once or twice during his
trips to Chicago on business in which
we were both interested, I went over
here into a back county of Canada
about fifty miles from any railroad
station, in a section of country where
there weren't any razors except those
the hogs wore on their backs, and I
haven't been able to slide my chin
against anything sharper than a Cana
dian zephyr 20 degrees below the ice
notch, and the consequence has been
that I have had a growth of bristles
that I think if my wife should run her
face against on my return to mynativo
village would give her such a shock
that she wouldn't let me come near
her again for the next six months, or
at least until I had promised her faith
fully that I would never let myself get
into such a condition again, even if I
went to the wilds of Africa, where I
suppose a man's whiskers, in the lux
uriant climate of that latitude, would
grow to such a thicket of hirsute stub
biness that there wouldn't be any way
of cutting them, unless he imported a
double-strength reaper and mower
with re-enforced knives in order that
there might not be any mistakes in
the accomplishment of the job for

Dr. S. C. Martin. Jr., of Argonaut
Kowing Club fame, told an interesting
incident of an expeiieuee of his, says
the St. Louis A' -, while traveling
in California some years ago.
j "Wo were stranded in '1'riseo." said
the doctor, "dead broke and ashamed
: to write home. Things became des
perate with us, and al last I derided to
'shake' the. other fellows and st.riko
out for myself. I secured passage on
one of tin; steamships running bo--twecn
'Fri.sco ami some of the small'
places along the coast, for the price of
my watch, which I sold.
"Arriving at a small mining and
timber town I secured a position as
waiter at the Metropolitan hotel, the
only hotel in the camp, an imposing
frame structure. The landlord em
ployed me ttt ' a week, and charged
me b a week for board. The night
of my arrival myself and a (.Herman
nailed Fritz, who was in the same
boat with nie, were stowed away in an
old kitchen, or shed, which had not
been used for some time. About mid
night I was awakened by Fritz, whu
was swearing softly to himself.
"A moment later I discovered the
cause of his annoyance. He had found
the room ty be the roosting place of
the fowls, and was busily engaged
throwing frightened chickens and
ducks out of the window. After he
had been engaged in this manner for
some fifteen minutes, and lb? place
seemingly as full of fowls as ever, 1
thought, to examine into the cause.
looking out of the window
where Fritz was throwing the fowls 1
saw there was an opening for them to
enter just below the window, with a
plank for them to walk up wide
enough for two fowls. Up this plank
in procession, two by two, came the
fowls Fritz was throwing out. As fast
as they were ejected they re-entered.
We gave up trying to clear the room
that night, yon may be sure, and the
next morning we decamped.''
THE CERWI OF THE CRIP.
A Wonderful Dittcovery by tlie aid of sv
Tllcro-KLaniiKlt.
Dr. Robert L.Watkins asserts that he
has, by the aid of a micro-flashlight,
obtained negatives of the grip germ
after it has been assimilated with the
blood through the mucous membrane
of the nasal organs. He attaches great
importance to this discovery, says th
N. Y. Herald. According to Dr. Wat
kins, the "grip" germ was photo
graphed under the power of magnify
ing lenses of one thousand magni
tude, the flashlight having the bril
liancy of the ordinary incandescent
light. The color of the germ, as seen
through the lens, is white. The sides
and fibrous surface were covered with
fine hairs so line they could hardly
be observed in the original micro-photograph.
The germ lody seemed to
be undergoing constant changes, and
in the meantime to rotate rapidly
among the adjacent healthy blood
corpuscles. 'The successful examina
tion of the germ under the microscope,
aided by tine flashlight, proved con
clusive, it is said, that the germ at
tacks rather the blood than the mucous
membrane, s in influenza, and that
the pain experienced in the various
Stages of the disease caused by the
wonderful activity of its minute body.
I talked with -a number of prominent
physicians yesterday as to the im
portance of this discovery, and found
that in their opinion it could not
count for much. Dr. H. X. Heirn
Tiians:tid: "In searching for new

Not long ago. in a public school ex

manded :
"What views would King Alfred take

A pupil wrote ir. answer.-
