HA,
TOMMY. BYRNE- AND 'THE INDIANS.
Uow a MVmr Wmm Averted by a UoeU Heori
f snd a Pcrssalv Hris.
Capt. Thomas Byrne, or "Old Tom
my," as he w$t aflVctionately called lj
his associates, had at orm time charg
of the llualpais. a tribe of Indians set
tled in northwestern Arizona. O'd
Tommy, perhaps from his lolulhfiriu
ton;iie," had an almost miraculons as
cendancy over the chiefs and head men
of this tribe, and, though his native
eloquence was seconded only by the
scantiest allowances of rations from the
subsistence stores of the camp, he was
loved and trusted by these childlike
allies. To hear nim coaxing back a
sulky warrior to nnil humor was
Bomethinto be long remembered.
"Coine. now." lie lias been heard to
say, "sluire, phat is le matther wiJ
yer Have yes iver axed me tor any
thin1 that Oi didn't promise it to ye.?"
Yet Tommy's promises were always
kept.
Suddenly one day the Ilualpais, like
a flash of lirlitiiiii out of a clear sky,
went on the warpath aud lired on the
agency buildings before leaving for
their stronghold in the Canon of the
Colorado. No one knew the cause of
their sudden treachery, anil Tommy
Byrne 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 waiiiug for his spirited lit
tle horse to be saddled he threw him
self across its back and swept out into
the hills after tho fugitives. When
the Ilualpais 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 Inn.
Ai ;irst th. Indians were sullen, but
thy soon melted enough to tell the
story of their grievances. The new
ag-riit had been robbing them in the
most barefaced manner, and in their
ig:iora:n e they imagined it to be (.'apt.
Byrne's duty to regulate all the allairs
in his oarnp. They did not want to
lurt him and would let him go safely
back, but for them there was nothing
but tho warpath.
"Come 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 ollicer, and in a
few minutes he had detected the man
ner in which false weigkt had been se
cured by tampering with the poise. A
Texas steer, which would not weigh
more than 800 pounds stood at 1,700,
and of eourse other articles followed in
the same ratio.
Tommy seized upon the agency and
took charge; tha Ilualpais were per
fectly satisfied, and the agent left that
nisht for California. Thus was a bit
ter war averted by the prompt action
of a plain, unlettered man, who had
no ideas about managing savages be
yond that of treating them with kiua
ness and justice. Chicago Tribune..

"My lirst ease," said s Well-knowa

Murphy, living up on the rocks in one
of the fast disappearing remnants of

from their tumbledown cabin by a
rascally landlord. The practical head
of the household was the wife, and she
determined to light the matter out.
For three weeks the M orpins. children,

flimsy tent made of old sheets, while
Mrs. Murphy tramped around town
looking for a lawyer who would take

the graces and gifts of individual life
to a family of younger brother and
' sisters.
Perhaps she is a iaidcn aunt who
smooths the way with anxious- eager
!. ness for everybody's feet but her own
! or a grandmother whose burdens mul
! tiply with the coming of the second
feneration because the young mother
i has not learned the secret of living her
life independently.
Whatever emergency of life may
have called out her unselfishness, there
it is, and, as I said before, there
is altogether too much of it.
Why? Ueeause there is such a
thing as an unsellishness 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 we!! being. That the mother
should be the head, the brains of her
family, what is more fitting? That
she should be hands and feet, that she
should serve before them like a hired
assistant, a thousand times no!
Tbe unselfish 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 ueighbors
no better than tiiey treated themselves
this would be a sad world for neigh
borliness. And this unsellishness is sure to work
mischief in a family, too. For unself
ishness is unlike most other virtues,
in that it breeds its oppoaitcs, 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 other
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.
And bo there comes out of the home
of the unselfish woman a flock of care
less, self-seeking children, intent on
themselves, criminally heedless of ev
erybody else, trampling on tho rights
f others, and hating to unlearn, per
haps late in life, wie selfish lessons
they learned at their unselfih mother's
knee.
Rarely is it that the lesson is learned
as it should be, and so is kept up the
army of selfish men and women who
make half the burden and unhappi
ness of living.
COT AHEAD OF THE BARBER.
It Took Breath, bat tb Be he me Worked

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

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 my native
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
supjMse a man's whiskers, in the lux
uriant climate of that latitude, would
grow to such a thicket of hirsute stub

of cutting them, unless he imported a

THREW THEM OUT.
Bat the Chicken Kept Right on Coming-
Dr. S. C. Martin, .Jr., of Argonaut
Rowing Club fame, told an interesting
incident of an experience of his, say
the St. Ijouis ii'iiaiir,, while traveling
in California soni'; cars ago.
' We were si l anded iu Ti i.- o." said
the doctor, "dead broke and ashamed
to write home. Things became des
perate with us, and at lat I decided to
shake' Ihe oth'r fell vs and strik
out for myself. 1 secured passage ou
one of tlie steamships running be
tween 'Frisco and some of the small
places along the coa.tt. for the price of
my watch, which I sold.
"Arriving at a small ruining and'
limber town I secured a position a
waiter at the Metropolitan hotel, the
only hotel iu the amp, an imposing
frame structure. The landlord em
ployed me at $10 a week, and charged
me $15 a week for board. The night
of my arrival myself and a (Jerman
uaii.od Frit., who was in the same
boat with me, were stowed away in an
old kitchen, or shed, which had not
been used for some time. About mid
night I w;w awatet.ed by Frit., who
was swearing softly to himself.
"A moment later I discovered the
cause of his annoyance. He had found
the room to 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 nisiiner for
some fifteen minutes, und the place
seemingly as full of fowls as ever, i
thought to examine into the cause,
'Ou looking out of the window
where Fritz was throwing the fowls I
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 wre ejected they re-entered.
We gave up trying to clear the room
that night, you may be sure, and the
next morning we decamped. "
THE GERM OF THE CRIP.
Woutlerrul Discovery by Ihe aiil of
.vlicTo-I'laftliliglit.
Dr. Robert L.Wat kins asserts that he
has, by the aid of a micro-flashlight,
obtained negatives ofthe grip gerut
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. JJerakt. 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 fidej
and fibrous surface were covered with
fine hairs so line they could hardly"
be observed in the original micro-photograph.
The germ body seemed t
be undergoing constant changes, and
in the meantime to rotate rapidly
among the adjacent healthy blooL
corpuscles. The successful examina
tion of the gerrn under the microscojw,
aided by the flashlight, proved con
clusive," it is said, that the germ at
tacks rather the blood than the mucous
membrane, as in influenza, and that
the pain experienced iu the variou
stages of the disease is caused by thw
wonderful activity of its minute body.
I talked with a number of prominent
physicians yesterday as to Ihe im
portance of this discovery, arid fournl
that in their opinion it, could not
count for much. Dr. If. X. Heine
man fcaid: "In searching for new
bacteria, simple microscopic, investiga
tion leads to the greatest sef-lecej-tion.
So well established is this that
no worker in the new field of bacter
iology would dare quote a new germ
unless he had followed the succeeding
process, namely, to inoculate an ani
mal and then to produce 1 he diV-a';;?;
that is to ay, to produce culture by
growing the germ in gelatine, anl
then, by iin ulating animal-, to pro
duce the disease again."
