LAST OF THE YAQUIS
Passing of a Once Famous Tribe of
Mexican Indians
All the Avcrld has heard of the fa
mous Yaqui Indians of the state of
Sonora Mexico They are for the most
part dwellers in the hills crudely arm
ed with primitive weapons but ter
rific fighters who have more than once
decisively beaten the soldiers of
Mexico
Peaceable when undisturbed fully
alive to the richness of their mines
and the value of their fertile Aalieys
they sought only to defend that Avhieh
was theirs from the grasping hands of
those who desired their mines and
their lands Like most aborigines
however they were doomed from the
first What was at the time of Cortes
a tribe of 5000 strong able to defy the
warriors of Montezuma has dwindled
until there are now not more than
500 souls in the valley of the Yaqui
river and in the mountain gorges
which wall in the source of this
stream
The bulk of the Yaquis have been
wiped out in sanguinary wars or taken
prisoners and shot and those for whom
no excuse for death could be found
have been deported to the fever strick
en vales of Yucatan The Yaquis as a
race are no more but their passing
has been made complete only during
the past few years Wide World Mag

A Few Thoughts on Money
Money otherwise known as tin
dough cush gelt rocks etc
The corpuscles of national circula
tion which indicate the strength of our
constitution
It is often called a curse Some
swear by it others swear for it and
still others swear at it
It often causes a species of mental
derangement or delirium called money
mania Many are willing to be thus
Inoculated
It is the feature of social distinction
It is the measure of Intelligence
those who have it are wise those who
haAe it not are foolish Possession of
it entitles one to the use of a money
gram
Though a medium of exchange it
has no connection with souls or astral
bodies
It is the religion of today often
called moneytheism Preachers pray
for it laymen lay for it
It is the be all and the end all Chil
dren cry for it women sigh for it men
die for it and all lie for It Smart Set
Wrecked by a Knife Blade
A ship was once wrecked on the
Irish coast The captain was a care
ful one Nor had the weather been of
so severe a kind as to explain the
wide distance which the vessel had
swerved from her proper course The
ship went down but so much interest
attached to the disaster that a diving
bell was sunk Among other portions
of the vessel that were examined was
the compass that was swung on the
deck and inside the compass box was
detected a bit of steel which appeared
to be the small point of a pocket
knife blade It was learned that the
day before the wreck a sailor who
had been set cleaning the compass
had used his pocket knife in the proc
ess and had unceremoniously broken
off the point and left it remaining In
the box That bit of knife blade ex
erted its Influence on the compass and
to a degree that deflected the needle
from Its proper bent and vitiated it as
an Index of the ships direction That
bit of knife blade wrecked the vessel
Scotch Students
Many a man who never had any
schooling gets an education and
often a surprisingly good one
A traveler in Scotland once met a
farmer whose ground rent was about
20 a year and who wrote poetry in
Gaelic tha t was of a high order
This same traveler met a youth in
Scotiand who rode from home on
horseback to the seaport and then
across Scotland to Aberdeen where he
sold his horse to enter the university
It is related of another Scotchman
that he was overheard repeating a line
of Tennyson whereupon some one ask
ed him what poet he liked best
Homer he replied
Whose translation do you read
I rarely read a translation he
said wiping the fish scales from his
apron 1 like best to read Homer in
