r n ! 'JM K ' ; INDIAN JUGGLERY. fal ;Perlbiuiaacea ofja Jossakeed at Leech lake in 1858. Jte feature of the evening at one of the OM meetings J&f the Anthropological So WEty in New York City was a paper by .Colonel Garrick Mallorv on "Algonkin fSyphs on Bark and Stone." The paper also dealt briefly with some related sub ;Jcts, and will form a part of the annual rc wort of the Bureau of Ethnology. Thefol MWing is a brief chapter on " Indian Jug ajery," extracted from this paper: "Paul Deaulieu, an Ojibv,-a of raised sod, present interpreter at White Earth agency, gave his experience with a jossa- lced at Leech la!;c about the year 1S5S. The ports of wonderful performances reached Mk: agency and. as Ueaulieuhad uo faith a. the jugglers, lie offered one hundred dol lars, a large sum, thuu :ind there, against goods of equal value, that t!e juggler could iwt perform satisfactorily one of the tricks tt his repertory to be selected by him (Beaulieau) in the presence of himself and committee consisting of his friends. The wager was accept ed with the result to he Ascribed. "'A medicine loc'ge was made. Four Strong polas were plan'cd deep in the pound, rising to an elevation of at least ten or twelve feet; one of tlieni having the branches remaining and rising a little be jend its fellows, this being the indication f a jossakeed as dist:n:.'nished from a 2edo lodge. The interior diameter was ss than four feet. The frame, which was inclined to the center, was then iilicd in With intertwined twigs and covered with Bankets and birch bai 1: from the ground to fie top. leaving an orillcu of abaut. one foot M diameter open for the ingress and egres3 ? spirits and of tho objects to be men tioned, but not large enough for the pas sage of a man s body. At one side of the pttom wrapping a flap was left for the en trance of the josakced or sliaman. A ommittce of twelve was selected to see scat no communication was possible be nrccn the jossakeed and confederates. These twelve men were respectable people. oe of them being the Episcopal clergy man of the reservation. The spectators "were several h.iwlrod in number, but stood WX, not being allowed to approach "The joakced then removed his cloth g, until nothing remained upon his person ut the breech-cloth. 15atilieu then took a Dpe (of his own selection for the purpose), and first lied and knotted one end about the ankles; the knees were then securely tied together; next the wrists, after which the arms were passed over the knees, and a kdllet of wood passed under the knees, thus securing and keepiugth" arms down motion less. The rope was then parsed around the eck again and again, each time tied and allotted so as to bring me face down upon wie knees. A Hat river-stone of black color which was the jossakeed manedo or amulet xvas left lying upon his thighs. Hie jossakeed was then carried to tho dge, placed inside upon a mat on the abound, and the flap covering restored so as to completely hide him from view. ' Immediately loud, thumping noises were heard, and the frame-work began to sway from side to side with much violence, whercni)on the clergyman remarked that this was the work of the evil one, and it was no place for him; so he loft, and did not sec the end. After a few minutes of violent movement and swaying of the lodge, rcompanicd by loud, inarticulate noises, the motions gradually ceased, when tho voice of the juggler was heard telling eaulicu to go to the house of a friend near fey and get the rope. Now, Beaulicu, sus pecting some joke was to be played upon fcim, directed the committee to bo very careful not to permit any one to approach while he went for the rope, which he found at the place indicated, still tied exactly as he had placed it about the neck and ex tremities of the jossakeed. lie immediate ly returned, laid it down before the specta tors, and requested of the jossakeed to bo allowed to look at him, which was granted, But with the understanding that Leaulicu was not to touch him. 44 When the covering was pulled aside the jossakeed sat within the lodge con tentedly smoking his pipe, with no other ob ject in sighttnau the black stone of manedo. Beaulicu paid Ids wager of one hundred dollars. An exhibition of similar pretended powers, also for a wager, was announced a short time later at Yellow Mcdiciue, Minn., to be given in the presence of a number f army people; but at the threat of the grand medicine-man of Leech lake bands, who probably objected to Interference with bis lucrative monopoly, "tho event did not take place and bets were declared off. a So remarkable and frequent were these performances of jug glery that the French in Kii:i called tho whole body of Indians ou the Ottawa river, whom they met at a very early period, 4 the sorcerers.' They were the tribes after ward called Nipiscing, and were the typical Algonquins. No suspicion of jugglery in the sense of deception appears to have been entertained by any of the earliest French and English writers. The severe Puritan and the ardent Catholic both considered that the exhibitions were real and the work tithe devil. It is also worth mentioning that one of the derivations of the name Micmac' is connected with the word mean ing 4 sorcerer; so that the known practices of this character having an important ef fect upon the life of the people extended from the great lakes to the extreme cast of the continent. It was obvious to me in cross-examining the various old men that tho performances of jugglery were in each case an exhibition of the pretended miracu lous power of an individual, whereby he obtained a reputation above bis rivals and derived subsistence and authority by the selling of charms and superhuman infor mation. The charms of fetiches, which still arc sold by a few who are yet believed in, arc of three lands to bring death or dis ease to an enemy, to lure an enemy into am bush, and to create sexual love." Araealc ss a Cosmetic The deleterious effect of arsenic upon the skin was recently discussed in the Patho logical Society of London, after a communi cation had been read by Mr. Jonathan Hutchinson. The skin is tho tissuo on which arsenic has, perhaps, its most marked influence. Tho poison may spoil the com plcxion instead of improving it by making it muddy and unsightly. A similar action is exhibited in all parts of the skin, and may lead to the development of soft corns, not warts, on tho palms of the hands and soles of the feet, where a roughened condition also crows up under its influence. Mr. Hutchinson also expressed the belief that arsenic can produce epithelial cancer. Women as Farmers. , It is said that there arc between 1,500 and ' 000 women in the Northwest who arc in terested in ranch and stock property. If any acknowledge their brands over their , own names, whilo others arc interested in stock running under other names and ia which they arc silent partners.

Woincn Who liny I.ovw-I.-ttTs Inteal of Writing Tlivut. 44I"in, I believe, the only person engaged in the business in Chicago,"' said the hand some and bright lady whose business card bore the words : "Letter writer," to a Chi cago IJcm d rcir:cr. "I have written let ters for ladies who. from their wealth and surroundings, you would suppose could do their own corresponding. I have, however, found many such who could neither spell nor write plainly, nor express their ideas. I have written a good many letters for per sons who make no pretense of their inabil ity to do so themselves. But tho bulk of my patrons come to me, not because they are unable to write, but because they can not command expressions for their thoughts." 44 What are the letters about generally I" 41 Well, that would be telliuir. Iiut if you won't say I told you. they are mostly letters of sentiment. The greater part arc love letters. Yon think that persons would pre fer to write such letters themselves. So they do when tho sentiment they breathe is real. But the letters I write arc those of occasion. Kach party desires to impress tho other witli epNtolatory beauties, aud not having any themselves well, I furnish the sentiments for them. It's very easy," she added, with a flavor of synicism. 44Theres a regular stock of sentiments for all occasions ttiai please all persons alike. If some gentlemen who arc the proud pos-scssor.- of glowit'g letters from ladies knew that some .f I heir friends had others from other ladies, but nearly all alike except in words; and ail coming from the same source, they wouldn't be so proud. Ladies write much alike, and bo, for that matter, do gentlemen. I notice one thing about tho latter, however, that is peculiar. Young gentlemen up to the age of twenty-three or twenty-four are very effusive and gushing in their protestations. From that age on to forty they grow more guarded and cold. They are afraid of ridicule orsomething. Perhaps they arc suspicious and distrustful. But after gentlemen reach middle life they re turn to youthful ardor in their letters of sentiment. Queer, isn't itf" "What other kinds of documents do you turn out?'" 44 Oh, letters of condolence, of congratu lation, of ceremony and so ou letters that arc meant to impress the receivers and are out of the power of the apparent writers themselves to construct." THE RETORT COURTEOUS. Why It Is Not Wine to Give Away Yor Wedding Presents. When a sister of tho Governor of a neigh boring State was married, a few years ago, says tho 4TopicalTalker"' of the Pittsburgh Dispatch, she received a great many via ble presents, and among them were many pieces of plate and silverware of all sorts. But particularly was she overwhelmed with silver fruit spoons. Beautifully chased, gold-lined, in every sort of variety, were these spoons. After the wedding, and when they had re turned from the honeymoon, the bride found that she had no Immediate use for half the silverware she possessed, especial ly as for the time they were to live in her mother's house. So she consigned some of it to the caro of a bank in town. The fruit spoons all went to the vault. A few months later she received an in vitation to attend the wedding of a school mate in a neighboring town. She knew she would have to go to New York to buy a suitable present and she didn't care about taking the journey just then. All at once the idea came into her head that she Had a great superfluity of fruit spoons. Why should she not send some of them to her schoolmate for a present? There seemed to be uo objection, so she sent the butler down to the bank with orders to pick out a pretty case of spoons. Tho butler fulfilled his mission. None of the presents were ticketed, so that it was al together impossible to tell from whom this particular set of spoons liad come. The spoons traveled once more to tho hymeneal altar, and the lady who sent them heard nothing about them for several days. Then she received th" fodyvi'ig letter: TfcaFaiBerieadatfcaCUcacoDaUyNcwsbs.

PROFITABLE REVENGE. Bow a Buffalo ""fan Cot Kven with a tot of In .::-ance Agents. There is a w ..lthy roan in Uuffalo who, ever since he '. -.ur.o well-to-do, has been pestered by th atreaticsof local insurance agents to taL out a policy in favor of bis wife and little ones. Not long ago, says the Buffalo Courier, he determined to be re venged on them. He called on a certain agent aud told him that at last he was thinking seriously of talcing out a policy, say for 10,000, but that before deciding the matter he wished to examine the induce ments of two or three other companies. Certainly."' said the agent, 4 but do coxno and dine "with me at the City Club to-morrow." 4,With pleasure." The rich man walked away, and visiting three or four more agents told them the same story that ho was thinking of taking out a pol icy of SlG.OJi) or so, but was not quite de cided yet in which company ho should in sure. Each and all or them extended him an earnest invitation to "Come and dino with me to-morrow evening," or "What do you say to a little supper at Blank's, where wo can talk it over?' or, 4Tm going to open a bottle of Madeira to-raorrow evening. Come around and I'll explain our plan in full." The wealthy man winked to him self as he left these agents, and accepted all their civilities, and for two weeks his family hardly saw him, far ho continued to hesitate and procrastinate, and the agents continued to dine him and wine him, until at length, having enjoyed him self immensely at tho expense of the insurance companies, he ono day sat down in his office and wrote each of the agents a littlo note, iu which he stated that he bad "been convinced of the better advantages to be gained by insuring in another company," and regretted that be "could not take out a policy with you." The agents each read this note with tears in their eyes and swear-words on their lips, and placed a sum ranging from. So to t30 to the debit of expense account. Xcnorance Kept Him Honest. A story is told of a postmaster whoso lack of knowledge of working bis own 44 nest" lost him an increase of ilOO on his salary next year. When he sent his returns in he lacked :U rents of the amount called for by the law to permit an adjustment of his salarv. His reports showed the yearly receipts of his office to be v2.WJ.20. As the department allows a fraction over ft half dollar to be counted as a dollar, the post master would have beer. 1C0 more in bis pocket if be had had shrewdness enough to buy 31 cents' worth or stamps out of bis own pocket. Since he sent his report he has learned his mistake, and every body in the county now can kick him. His was the only case of the kin 1 in i he 'J..Y.V.

In Arizona a:; installation is -proposed, to bring some 1 50-horsc power from a water fall to a large mine and smelting works eight miles away. la tais case the estimate of the copper needed is cieht tons ta th j mile, and tlic fact shows what nature was providing for in furnishing the enormous quantities ot copper that now are merely surplus. The new Nevada mill on the Comstock is to be run at least in part by electric trans mission.
