MINIATURE JAP GARDENS.

"We import the dwarf plant
and trees used for the purpos
from Japan , " said ono dealer to
Now York Hun reporter. "Th
gardens are constructed by Ja ]

"How much are they ? The one

ones. These are the ? C ones i
those round terracotta pots.
"Some people use them for ja

good and the little gardens a
ways interest people. "
Only Japanese art could achiev
these wonderful miniature ga

eight inches across.
A perfect illusion of oxtensiv
landscape is won by the clevt
placing of the tiny dwarfed tree :
the artful twists given to wee gnr

vistas.
The smallest gardens are , as
rule , grown in little shallow po
co-lain dishes of pretty design an
coloring. The larger gardens ai
grown in shallow earthonwat
pots , bowl shaped.
Flooded wi'th bright sunshiii
the gardens show off to the IKX
advantage.

INDIANS KILLING OFF GAMI
Bight to Hunt 011 Reservations Ofto :
Abused by the Red War
riors.
Sportsmen returning fron
hunting in the vicinity of norther :
Minnesota Indian reservation
tell in the Dnluth Herald of th
scarcity of game in certain sec
tions which can be accounted fo
> nly ou the theory that thelnd
ins have been killing the animal
luring the fall and early summoi
ml h on and oil't heir i esei ves. Th
ity men are indignant that tin
should be so. They claim to hav
msitive proof from the settlers t
he effect that the redmen hav
iverstepped their bounds in th
innting of deer and moose.
This Indian proposition is on
hat occasions a great deal n
worry whore reservations aie U
atod. Laws governing the h
linns in this respect are little m
lerstood by the whites in genera
tut they are such that thf coi
lotion of any of those wards of th
government for breaking them i
mule extremely diflleult , if not in
lossible.
After taking his lands froi
lim , or most of them , it would i
become the government if it di
lot allow the Indian the privileg
of hunting at all seasons who
wild game is eatable. This prii
lege is accorded him. but only o
-reservations. . lie is not suj

'orests unless such hunting i
lone in the open season for garni
ind some so read the law thath
has not the right to kill game a
my time unless hunting in the rei
ervation.
The Indians know the law an
ire careful to see that they ar
not caught breaking it , though i
nany instances they live so fa
'rom a game warden that the
have become careless and ope
violations are said to be frequen
tut even in cases of this kind it i
no easy matter to secure a convii
tion , for , even though the propc
man be arrested , it is difficult t

men are careful to protect one (
their own uumher and stolidly n
fuse to testify against him , esp
cially in affairs of this kind.
As a general thing the warde
pays little or no attention to sue
violations and lets the India
hunter do as he will. Even whe

contrive to bring down his gam

SOME RICH ARE SLOW PAY
Notorious Fact Declares Writer That
Many In Society Haggle Over
Their Bills.
It is notorious that the rich ar <
often scandalously slow in paying
their bills. 1 recall one instance
where the wife of a multimillionaire
aire ( she was afterward divorcedj )
took no notice , month after mouth.
) f a bill amounting to over $ i ( ) .
(100 ( for her daughter's wedding
trousseau , and this bill was noi
paidformoro than a year after th"
ceremony , and only then because
a resourceful collector "held up '
the multimillionairoliimself in the
street one day , and finally got hi- : ,
chock , declares Cleveland .Moffol1-
in Success.
I have been told of several rirl.
women in the smart set. two n"
them very rich , who are wont t.
haggle over pric"s in the shops n ; <
if they were in genteel poverty ,
one of these ladies , whose showy
Newport fetes are widely pro
claimed , tried on a certain occa
sion , to "beat down" an estinint
for candle shades , favors , etc ,
that she wanted in a hurry for : i
dinner dance , and , having failed
inner-effort , she finally exclaimed
"Why , you oughtn't to charge me
a cent for these things ! Think of
the advertising you can get out of
it ! If you treat me right I'll see
that your place is mentioned by
all the reporters ! "
And another , whose husband i *
one of the richest men in the
world , actually wept before ; t
Fifth avenue dressmaker in her
pleadings for a reduction of $15 on
the price of a certain garment that
she simply had to have but could
not afford , she declared , out of the
small allowance made her by he11
husband.
When I was in Newport last
summer people were laughing ai
the latest petty economy of this
isame husband , who is certainly
one of the "closest" of our idle mil
lionaires. He had heard of a new
aluminum paint , warranted to
keep shiny without much rubbing ,
and he had forthwith given ordern
that the brasses on his beautiful
yacht be smeared over wifh this
paint so that it might reduce his
pay roll by the wages of two sail-
01 s previously needed to clean
these brakes ! This gentleman's
income must be at least ? J,000.

WASP BECOMES A HUNTER.
Intelligent Insect Proves a Veritable
Octopus in Preying on
Its Fellowe.
When summer warmth ha ?
awakened the maternal instincts
of the insect world , the mud
dauber wasp may be seen gather
ing mortar at the margin of
stream , pool or puddle , writes C.
H. MeCook , in llarper's Magazine.
Filling her mandibles , which serve
as both spade and hod , she bears
the load of mud to some rough stir
face , rock or wall , or board or
beam. She spreads and shapes
her mortar , until , after many vis
its to the mud-bed , she has built a
tubular cell about an inch long
and three-eighths of an inch wide.
Then her huntress instinct awak
ens and her raids upon the spider
realm begin. For within this cyl
inder the mother mason will put A
single egg. In the course of time
this will hatch into a ravenous
larva , whose natural food is liv
ing spiders ; and these the mother
proceeds to capture and entomb
within the mud-daub nursery.
On this errand she may be seen
hawking over the near cobwebs of
various sorts , venturing within
the meshed and beaded snares
that prove fatal to most incomers ,
and sometimes even to herself.
If the occupant , expectant of prey ,
sallies forth to seize the intruder ,
it finds itself a captive , not a cap
tor. The wasp shakes the silken
filament from wings and feet ,
turns upon the spider , seizes and
stings it , bears it to her cell , and
thrusts it therein.
It's Not Unlikely.
' 'Some marriages may be made
in Heaven , " observed the Pohick
philosopher , as lie kicked the gro
eery cat off the cracker box , < fbut
ez I glance around the ranks of
eassiety it occurs to me that the
devil manufactures quite a few. "
Chicago Sun.
Her Tender Heart.
"Why do you suppose it woman
usually cries at her wedding ? "
"Out of sympathy , probably , for
the men she could not marry. "
Houston Post.
