A MODEL GRAND JURY.
CrinUaal Practice la Arkaaaaw la
Days.
A history of the criminal practice of
Arkansas would not only be a volume
of bloody tragedy but would contribute
largely to humorous literature. Years
ago, when Colonel W. P. Grace was
prosecuting attorney of a southern
circuit, he was determined, in view ol
the inexcusable leniency which pro
railed, to effect a reform by enforcing
on the minds of grand jurors the ne
cessity of punishing criminals. Ob
one occasion when court met at Ar
kansas Post,nhe Colonel was particu
larly desirous of making a good record,
The grand jury, described as an "onerj
lookm' set o1 fellers," occupied a
negro cabin, near the court house.
"Now, gentlemen," said Colonel Grace,
"expediency demands that you should
organize and get to work just as soon
as possible." Ajnan named Jacquina
was elected foreman. 'Now," said th
Colonel, "who will act las clerk? Won'l
?rou?" addressing'the most intelligent
ooking member.
"Xafn't read nor write," replied the
man.
"Well, won't you?" addressing an
other.
"Would if it wa'n't fur one thing.
"What's that?"
"I ken read, but I kain't write worti
a cuss. WushI could, but I kain't."
"I am certain you will," addressing
an'old fellow. " J i:
"No,-I b'leve not to-day. Lkaim'l
spell nuthin' nohow."
"Oh, go on an' sarve. Uncle Caleb,"
said the man who could not write worth
a cuss. "Go on an' sarve, I say.
You don't haf to be able to speQ.
All -you've got to do is to read an' writ
a little."
i"Well, gentlemen," remarked the
Colonel, "to expedite matters, I will
act as clerk ud til you can get some ont
else."
He wrote down their names and
called tiie roll, requesting each man
when his name was called, to state
whether or not he knew of any viola
tions of the law.
They answered "no," until Grace's
patience became sore:
"Why, gentlemen," said he, "you
know very well that several men have
been killed in this county since the last
term of court One man was killed
down here at a saw-milL Do you
know anything about that?"
"Wall," drawled a long, dyspeptic
looking fellow, "I did see a mant'uther
day what 'lowed that a feller had been
llid out down thar, but I wuz sorter
busy at the time an' didn't 'vestigate,
but I reckon he's dead, fur arterwards
seed 'em diggin' a hole out in the
orchard whar his folks does all thar
plan tin'."
"Is that all you know about it?"
"Wall," with another long drawl,
"'bout all I can think uv right now.
Jout think of more though, ifyou'd
erirame time. Lcmme see. Wall, I
reckon, in reason they must've killed
him, fur I seed a wagin with a long
box in it drive up to the house.an'. yes,
airterwards I seed 'cm drive to the
orchard. Reckon the feller must've
been killed?"
"I don't doubt that," replied the
Colonel. "What we want to get at ia
the manner and circumstances of the
killing. Do you know by whom and
how he was kiJied?"
' "'Wall, a short time before I seed the
box in the wagin, the man Blythe, what
I have every reason to believe wus in
the box, had a 'spute with a feller
named Miller."
"Did Miller kill him?"
"Wall, Miller he said, that the first
time he seed him he 'lowed to shoot
him."
"Miller killed him, then?"
"Wall, I don't know, but Miller is a
powerful truthful feller. Never heerd
nobody 'spute his word. A mighty apt
hand with a fuzee, too, Miller is.
Mou'ter not killed him, fur it ain't fui
me to say. Blythe didn't owe me
nuthin'."
"It is for you to find out though, foi
you are hero to see the law enforced."
"Yas, that's whut the boys was ies'
tellin' me, an' I reckon' it's so. Whar
is Miller now, bpjs?"
"He cleft the country," someone
replied.
"Wall, Colonel, I reckon he's the
man what dono the killin. In fact, I
know he is."
"No, he ain't left the country," said
some, one else, "fur I seed him day
aforeyistidy."
'""Wall, Colonel," continued the evas
ive grand juror, "I 'ain't so certain,
sence I come to think about it Don't
want to put the matter too strong."
'"There's, another case," declared the
Colonel. , "Anjnfernal scoundrel, that
ought to be hanged, killed his brother
over on White River the other day. Do
any of you know anything about
that?"
An old brown "jeansed" fellow,
who had said nothing, arose And re
plied: i
"Yes, an' I'm the man that done it"
"Mr. Foreman," said the Colonel;

The so-called-Oklahoma Territory Is
as unknown quantity. It has no geo
graphical recognition on the United
States maps. Payne and the Oklahoma
boomers locate a Territory of that
name on the western portion of the
Ceded Indian Lands, which they claim
to be public lands of the United States.
On the map of the "'Frisco" Road
Oklahoma occupies an irregular shape
south' of the Red Fork of the Arkansas,
and bounded on the sooth by the Cana
dian and on the east by the Pottowat
tomies and the Sac and Fox Agencies,
while the western boundary extends to
the Wichitas, Cheyenne and Arapahoe
Reservations. In a map of the Indian
Territory published a few years ago by
the Oklahoma Association, the? em-
braoed-all-the-western portion of-the
Indian Territory extending from the
Cherokee outlet on the north to the Red
River on the south, and including the
.Cheyenne and Arapahoe Reservations,
basing their claim on the statement of
Colonel Boudinot, who showed that by
the treaties of 1866 the United States
Erchased from the Indian tribes in the
dian Territory about fourteen million
acres of land. These lands were bought
from the Creeks, Semioles, Choctaws
and Chickasaws; the Cherokees selling;
no lands by the treaty of 1866, hence
they still hold what is known as the
Cherokee Strip r "outlet,'?-extending
to the one hundredth meridian, lying
between the Kansas border and Okla
homa, and which is about ninety miles
wide.
The Creeks, by their treaty of 1866,
sold to the United States 3,250,560
acres for the sum of f 975,168. The
Seminoles, by their treatv the. same
year, wild to the United States 2,169.080
acres for the sum of $325,862. The
Choctaws and Chickasaws by their
treaty the same year sold to the Dnited
States the "leased lands," lying west
of the 99th degree of west longitude,
for the sum of $300,000. That tract
contains about 7.000.000 acres. OT
these ceded lands the United States has
since appropriated to the Sacs and
Foxes 479,667 acres, to the Pottawa
tomies 575,877 acres, to the Wichitas
748,610 acres, and by executive order
the Kiowas, Comanches, Cheyennes,
Arapahoes and other wild Indians
were given reservations. A portion of
these 14,000,000 acres of land has not
been appropriated by the United States
Jor the use of other Indians. In the
articles of the treaties with the Creeks
and Seminoles, by which they sold
'these lands, it was stipulated that they
were ceded "in compliance with a de
sire of the United States to locate other
Indians and freedmen thereon." The
settling of so many wild Indians be
tween the borders of Texas and Kansas
excited the jealousy of those States, as
they were in constant danger of Indian
raids. A few years ago Mr. Mills, of
Texas, caused a provision to be inserted
in the Indian appropriation bill pro-
TiM finer tnn rAirinual rf Sinnr Tnrtiana
to the Indian Territory, and by a simi
lar provision in the Indian approbation
bill the next winter the removal of any
Indians from Arizona or New Mexico
into the Indian Territory was pro
hibited. These laws it was contended by
Payne and his followers left several
millious of acres of the richest lands
free from the Indian title or occupancy,
and subject to entry like other public
lands. By the treaties canceled in
1866 with the Seminoles, Chdbtaws,
Chickasaws, Cherokees and Creeks,
growing out of the rebellion, the tribes
agreed to the establishment, if Con
gress should so provide, of a General
Council in the Indian country to be
annually convened, consisting of dele
gates from all the tribes in the pro
portion of their members respectively,
and to have power to legislate upon
matters relating to the intercourse and
relation of the several tribes resident
in the Territory; the laws passed to be
consistentrwith treaty stipulations and
the constitution of the United States.
The Council was to be presided over by
the Superintendent of Indian Affairs.
In the treaty with the Choctaws and
Chickasaws the plan ef a General
Council was more clearly defined and
agreed to in more detail than in the
other treaties. The powers of this
General Council were defined so as to
establish for many purposes not incon
sistent with the tribal laws, a Territo
rial Government with the Superintend
ent (of the Southern Superintendency)
as Governor of the Territory, which
was to be named "Oklahoma." Pro
vision was made for a Secretary of the
Council and "f or1 pav of 'members" and
for a Marshal of the Territory, .and a
clause was added looking to the estab
lishment of an Upper House, to consist
of one member1 from each tribe. In
the treaties -made at the same time with
the Creeks-and Cherdfcees provisions
also for a General' Council were-made,
the same as in the Seminole treaty.
-The General Council was intended ttr
,be in relation to the federated tribes
similar to that of the 'Federal Govern
ment at Washington to the several
States.
In 1875 a General Council in accord
ance with ihe provisions of the above
treaties was held at Ockmulgee, the
capital of the Creek Nation, for the
purpose of forming a constitution. At
tnat convention the following tribes
were represented by delegates: The
Creeks, Choctaws, Cherokees. Semin
oles. Pawnees, Keechies, Confederated
Feorias, Eastern Shawnees, Absentee
Shawnees, Black Bob Shawnees, Otta

Kick'apoos, Wichitas, Ionies, Waoos,
Comanches, Towoccan'ies, Caddos, An
adarkoes, Delawares, Kaws, Osages,
Pottawattomies, Cheyennes, Arapa
hoes, Wyandottes, Quapaws and Sene
cas. , The late" Colonel Robert Campbell,
as Commissioner, and a representative
of the Republican, were present at the
cessions, wnicn were proiongea several
weeks. A constitution was agreed to.
the concluding section of which was as
follows: '"Seetion 14. No person who
denies the existence of God or a future
state of rewards and punishments, shall
hold any office in the civil departments
of this Indian Territory, nor shall be
allowed his oath in anytfeourt of justice,
neither shall the Bible, ever be prohibit
ed as a text-book in any school in this
Territory." The constitution was sub
mitted for ratification, bat was defeat
ed by the Cherokees and some of the
larger tribes. The consequence is that
.Oklahoma, instead of giving name to a
Confederacy of Nations, has been ap
plied to an insignificant Territory cov

TAKEN FOR A TRAMR.
A Clerk Who Bzaeto4 to
Slraaca Gaaat, Bat Was PalrarUeS.
There is no denying the fact that he
looked seedy. His hat was of the
"shocking bad" order, the cut of his
coat of antique style, his general make
up of the modern tramp school. Try
ing to dodge a cart in crossing upper
Broadway yesterday, a gentlemen of
the above description blundered against
a vehicle coming from the opposite di
rection, and smeared his hand with tar.
greasebozing from one of the hubs. It
is. a good thing to have clean hands,
although manual uncleanliness is no
uncommon thing in this great bad city.
Walking into an adjacent hotel, the
man of smeared hand proceeded to
wash 'himself- in one of the marble
basins for lavatory use.
"Can't you read?" asked a stylish
young man with a cutaway coat richly
particolored scarf and a glittering dia
monoTsoarf pin.
"I can," answered ;the stranger, as
he vigorously rubbed the ball of soap
over his smeared hand. "Why do you
ask?'. -
"Because there Is a printed notice
over your head that you should read
and heed."
"Ah! I see," was the stranger's cool
rejoinder, raising his .eyes and reading
the notice. "For exclusive use of the
guests," and then he continued in the
same cool tone: "I had not observed
the notice before. It is not an original
Idea, by any means. I have seen it
frequently in hotels, but it's Intensely
stupid has no meaning ia it One
of the rules of the house, is it? What
nonsense! -What constitutes a hotel
guest?"
"I don't want, any of your conun
drums, old fellow," indignantly inter
rupted tiie young man, his flashing dia
mond paled by the fiery flashing of his
eyes. "You are not a guest of the ho
tel; so get out ef here.'7
"Who are yon, that you should talk
to me in that way?' asked the stranger,
in the same tone of imperturbable
calmness, and scanning his interlocutor
with a keenly-scrutinizing gaze as he
began to wipe his hands on the immac
ulate towel suspended frssn a roller.
"I belong to the hotel. I am the
clerk," quickly answered the young
man, with that professional air of
colossal importance and supreme con
tempt for ordinary mortals which it is
expected will be followed by an imme
diate paralyzing effecC
"Then I dont mind," said the stran
ger. "I am not as frightened as I
might have been. I thought surely the
hotel belonged to you, instead of your
belonging to the hotel,"
"I don t want any more words; you
get out of here, quick."
"Young man," and the words were
uttered in a slew and deliberate tone,
"I want to give you some advioe; it's
very old and trite, but it is veiy good
for a fast young man like you. 'Think
before you speak;' 'Never judjre from
appearances. Impress these aphorisms
on your feeble mind. The fact is "
"But I tell you again, get out ol
here," fairly screamed: the young man
in his increasing rage, "or I'll call a
policeman."
"I won't get out of here, and no
policeman will put me out either. You
insultingly called my attention to that
printed notice, 'For exclusive use of the
guests.' Now, understanding clearly,
the moment a stranger steps foot over
the threshold of a hotel he is the
guest of that hotel and entitled to its
privileges and comforts; for all the
privileges and comforts he chooses to
avail himself of he can be charged.
There is no law restricting him in the
freedom of his choice, and neither is
there any law compelling him to stay
longer than he wishes. I desire to
avail myself of no further privileges at
this hotel, and I propose to leave -at
once. Now, I want to see the proprie
tor and pay my bill."
'"'There's nothing to pay,, and if there
was you probably haven't a dime about
your clothes. There's the door."
"My young friend, I see that avenue
of egress, ana I propose to utilize it in
my own good time; but I see you will
not take advice. I've only one word
more with you," taking the young man
by the collar, who paled and quivered
under his wrathful grasp and menacing
eye. "I have only just arrived in this
city, but if I meet any more like you I
shall do two things enlarge the
boundaries of my private burying
grouna anu iounu an asylum so long
needed in this country for that large
class of imbecile cursed fools hotel
dorks'."
"I have used your wash bain. soap
and towel," thec,stranger said to the
proprietor, whom he found in the of
nce, "and! want to pay my bill."
"There is nothing to pay," politely
answered the proprietor.
"But riusist on it" taking, out a
large rollof bills and extracting a ten
dollar note and laying it on - the coun
ter. "If it's more than the bill would
be, use the balance in trying to germ
inate brains and develop good man
ners in.your hotel clerk.'''
"But, sir-V
The stranger disappeared, hjater in
the evening the gentleman a promi
nent lawyer of this city and ex-Judge
of one of the higher courts recited the
above story to a party of gentlemen
dining with him at De1mon:co's. He
had just come from the mines of Cali
fornia, having gone there in a spirit of
adventure and to improve bis health,
and he retained his mining garb until
his arrival to astonish his friends and
amuse himself over their puzzling fail
ures to recognize him. It is hardly
necessary to add that the idea of an
asylum for hotel clerks was received as
one of the brightest indications of the
progressively philanthropic spirit of
the'age. V. T. Herald,

CLOTHING.
5MMMWT to
Kind of Cletalasr the Toaajc ShovM Waaa
More care is necessary than is ucnally
supposed to be, in determining what
clothing the young should wear. They
need cnongh to make them comfort
able, or enough to retain a certain
amount of heat generated within their
bodies. Health demauds that th
temperature of the body should be
uniform, varying but very little from
time to time. If we wear flannels by
day, we should by night unless artifi
cial heat supplies any deficiency in
natural. As we should suppose, from
the fact that natural heat is generated
within the bodv, its outer surface is
cooler than the inner by one or
two degrees. The blood is heated by
the chemics&action of the air upon the
food we consume, so that the blood in
its wonted rounds delivers a portion of
the heat it has to the skin and under
tissues and then pursues its usual
course, and then returns to the lungs
to be again loaded with, freshly gener
ated heat And then dispenses it to the
inner organs and various tissues, and
thus continues to keep the body uni
formly warm. Exposure to a lower
temperature than usual will act upon
the outer nerves in such a way as to
cause the small blood tubes of the skin
to contract and reduce their size so
much, that they can no longer convoy
blood enough to keep the outer surface
of the body warm; clothing then be
comes absolutely necessary to retain
all the heat generated and so repel the
influence of cold.
Checking the outer circulation in
this way by sudden exposure to cold is
apt to induce congestion in the inner
organs and check the perspiration and
so induce inflammation of the pleura,
lungs, air tubes and kidneys, and ulti
mately produce some serious if not
fatal malady. The skin and kidneys
are intimately connected. Disturbance
in the function of the one will often
induce greater or less disturbance to
the other. Exposure to cold may check
the exudation from the skin, and so
increase the secretion of the kidneys.
We often have occasion to relieve the
congestion of the kidneys by increas
ing the perspiration. This can be easily
done by a warm bath. And so we
resort to this means of cure, when any
inner organ is suffering from a sudden
depression of temperature. In the
same category come colds in the nasal
cavities, the throat and the lungs.
Now to lessen the influence of sudden
changes of temperature, or to prevent
a loss of heat, we resort to a proper
amount of clothing. We speak of
warm clothing, when we mean only
retentive clothing. So that the char
acter and usefulness of clothing must
depend upon its power of retaining
heat and so maintaining a uniform
temperature of the inner and outer
portions of the body. Tlie great art
of resisting the influence of cold
consists in regarding the tem-
erature of the air in which we
ive and move. In place , of one
heavy coat that some people wear, wo
have two thin ones. In moderate
weather we wear one only, but in cold
weather we wear two. The advan
tages of this arrangement of our outer
garments are that the two thin coats
retain within their meshes and between
their folds a larger amount of air the
great retainer of body heat than can
the thick coat and then we get rid of a
freat weight that a thick coat always
as, and can always adapt our outer
clothing to the present temperature.
No doubt we can harden children to
easily enduring a low degree of cold,
but we must do it in a gradual way, ao
that we may not kill them, or make
them ill in the process of hardening.
Many children die simply because they
are poorly dressed. The heat gener
ated by the chemical action of the air
upon the atoms of nutritious food is
not retained in quantities enough to
keep the blood moving in its wonted
rounds, yielding as it moves, those par
ticles of food that keep the animal ma
chinery in working order.
How many mothers clothe their chil
dren so that the small amount of heat
they generate may be retained suffi
ciently to keep them uniformly warm
and not induce copious perspiration?
Flannel is often used as the proper fab
ric. We obiect to its use as coming
next to the skin of the young. It is so
rough and irritating that it .keeps them
fretful and uneasy. We prefer soft
cotton fabric near the surface and flan
nel over it 0. H. Allen, M. D., in

LINEN CLOSETS.
A Good Test of a Wemi
HoaMkeaalajr
Ability.
There is no better test ef a woman as
housekeeper than the condition of her
linen closet A good and complete
supply of this essential to pleasant liv
ing is a luxury which it requires habit
and training to appreciate, and the
deprivation where such habits and
training exist is more severe than the
absence of other things which seem
more important People who have
acquired some means, yet whose ways
are not over refined, spend as little as
possible on articles of everyday use and
comfort, and really do not know the
immeasurable difference it makes in
the enjoyment of life to use towels of i
ample size and goou, solia quality,
handsome napery, sheets heavy and
laundried; and all in abundance. They
reserve their strength for display and
are forever poor in those personal be
longings, tho possession and use of
which make one feel rich. There is
inherent beauty in linen even more
than in silk. It is delightful to handle,
and conveys a sense of substance, of
wealth, as well as of cleanliness. It is
purely an imported fabric; very little
flax is grown and none manufactured
in this conntrv. The finest linens come
from Ireland, from the neighborhood
of Belfast but those of the second
class are imported largely from Ger
many, the weight and quality of these
being superior to any others for the
money. The fashions in the patterns
of table linens vary almost as widely
as the fashions in dress fabrics. Jost
now they are natural, and really beau
tiful. Growing flax in its different
stages furnishes a very delicate and
pretty designs oats, among which are
poppies, another, and grasses, among
which are blue bells and swaying
wheat a third. The borders are very
deep, but unconventional, not inclosed
in rigid lines, but forming a sort of
dado of flowers and grasses, with
curled ribbons between' them and the
lovely centers. Philadelphia Call.

her name was Mrs. William Sage, of

THE LOST CHILD.
a Highland InrMnat HiutrUu,jttieFaU
fiilnwe of i Woif.
A shepherd who inlr.t'rVd one of
those valleys or gleus -which intersect
theGrani)ian Mountains, in one of his
excursions to look after his tiock, hap
pened to carry along with him one of
his children, an infant of three years
old. Thi3 is not an unusual 'practice
amo.i the Highlanders, who accustom
their children from the earliest infancy
to endure tLe rigors of the climate.
After travertin"- Ins pastures for some
time, attended by bis dojr, the shopherd
found himself under the necessity, of
ascend i a summit at some 'distance,
to have a more extensive view of the
ranjre. As tne ascent was too fatiguing
for the chihl, he left him on a smafi
plain at the bottom, with strict injunc-'
tons not to stir from it till bis return.
Scarc.ly, however, had he gained the
summit, when the horizon- was dark
ened by one of those .impenetrable
mists which frequently descend so rap
idly amidst these mountains, as, in the
space of a few minutes, almost to turn
day to night The anxious father .in
stantly hastened back to find his child,
but owing to the unusual darkness and
his own trepidation unfortunately
missed his war in the descent After a
fruitless search of many hours, he dis
covered that he had reached the bottom
of the valley and was near his own
cottage. To 'renew the search that
night was equally fruitless and danger--ous.
He was, therefore, compelled to
go home although he had lost both his
child and his dog, who had attended
him faithfully for many years. ie " 3
Next morning, by break oL day the
shepherd,' accompanied by. a band of
his neighbors, set out in search of his
child; But after a day spent in fruitless
fatigue, he was -at last compelled, by
the approach of night, to descend from
the mountain. On his .returning home
to his cottage. He found that the dog,'
wnicn be Had lost the day before, had
been home, and on receiving- a piece of
cake, nad. instantly 4 gone '.ottagain.
For several successive days tire shep
herd renewed his search" tor his child,
and still, on returning home disap
pointed in the evening, he-1 found that
the dog had been home, and on receiv
ing his usual allowance of cake, had
instantly disappeared. Struck with
this singular circumstance, he remained
at home-one day; and when the dog,
as usual, departed with his piece of
cake, he resolved to follow him, and
find out the cause of this strange pro
cedure. The dog led the way to a cat
aracat some distance from the spot
where the shepherd had left his child.
The banks of the cataract almost joined
at the top, yet, separated by an abvss
of immense depth, presented
pearance which so often astoni
appalls the travelers that frequent the
Grampian mountains! Down one of
those rugged and almpst perpendicular
descents the dp" began, without hesi
tation, to make liis way, and at last'dis
appeared by entering a cave, the mouth
of which was almost level with the tor
rent The shepherd, with difficulty,
followed; but on entering the cave,
what were his emotions when he be
held his infant eating with much satis
faction'the cake which the dog had-just
brought him, while the faithful animal
stood by eyeing his young charge with
the utmost satisfaction. From the sit
uation in which the child' was found,
it appeared that he had wandered to
the brink of the nreciDice. and then
either fallen or scrambled down till' he
reached the cave. The dog, by means
of his scent, had traced whim' to -the
spot and afterwards prevented, him
from starving by giving up to him his
own daily sillo-w&nce. Exchange.

THE BOARDING-HOUSE PIE.
A Distinction "With Scarcely a DUferaacw
Lnever could find out how it came
about, for there was never .anything
between them, so far as I could dis
cover; but all of a sudden, one day,
the Bottomcrust took up the Upper
crust quite short and remarked that it
needn't feel so stuck up, for it wasn't
so very much above the Bottomcrust as
it imagined.
"I don't care to talk with you," re
torted the Uppercrust pale with rage,
"for you are beneath me."
"Beneath you!" muttered the Bot
tomcrust in an undertone; "you
needn't be so crusty; you're of very
little weight anyway.''
"Yes," resumed the Uppercrust
"you are not only beneath me, but you
have the reputation of being a very
tough character. It is not meet that I
should associate with you."
"I should like to kow," replied the
Undercrust "what, would become of
you if I didn't support you. And I'd
have you to know that contact with you
is just as hateful to me as it can possi
bly be to you." , . t . T
"You thick-skinned, soggy old fool!"
exclaimed the Uppercrust; if 1 didn't
hide your dyspeptic countenance from
the boarders, you wouldn't be tolerated
in decent, society.','
"And if it were not for me," retorted
the Bottomcrust "everybody would be
able to see right through you, and your
hollow pretensions would make you
the laughing-stock you deserve to be."
"Come, I like that!" exclaimed the
Uppercrust "You disgusting old
dough-face! If I didn't hide your bil
ious features from the boarders, who'd
be the laughing-stock then, eh?"
"That's right!" replied the Bottom
crust ironically; "put on airs and call
names. I'm nobody, 'of course! I'm
good for nothing but to keep put of
sight and sweat just to bear yon up,
you who are so proud of your lily-white
complexion!"
"Oh, you greasy old thing!" ex
claimed the Uppercrust. Keep your
clammy hands off of me. -I really can't
abide you."
"Can't abide me, indeed!" retorted
the Bottomcrust "Then whv do vou
cling to me so closely? I'll tell yoa
why; it is because you are so thin you
would fall to pieces without my sup
port"
"And if I were such a dull, heavy
person as you," replied the Uppercrust
"I would be thankful' there was some
body to hide my hideousness from the
public If it were, not for me, who
would stomach you, pray?"
There is no knowing' Jiqw long this
senseless wrangling 'might "have gone
on, had not the ooarding mistress come
alone at this moment She, immediate
ly divided the' pie into geometrically
exact proportions," and it was then
found that notwithstanding the war "of
crimination and recrimination which I
had been raging between the, Upper
crust and Bottomcrust of that pie, there
was really nothing in it

romantic history of any town in Spain.
It stood high upon the verge of. a gi

sition it was justly regarded by the
Moors as the Key of their kingdom of
Granada, and when captured in 1482
by the forces of Ferdinand and Isabella
the "Alhambra was felt to be fore
doomed. It'was that event which gave

THE SKATE'S EVOLUTION.
How the BeaatUal "Club" Skates Wer
foreshadowed la the Carted Toes of Old.
The Milwaukee Globe says: Many a
man of to-day can remember the long
curled toe, steel runner,' imbedded in a
solid piece of wood, that formed'- the
skate of his boyhood days. To the
wood were attached the long straps
and the screw in the heel that fastened
the skate to the foot. This skate, too,.
was, guttered, and the fellow that had a
pair of "smooth bottoms" was the envy
and wonder of all the other boys. The
curly-toe gradually disappeared, the
long straps gave place to the double
toe-strap, and the heel-strap, that with
its harness rings always reminded one
of a halter, toolflVht with the old
wood screw that used to be bored into
the boot heeL Other changes followed
rapidly. ,
. Some bright skater concluded that
better speed could be attained if less of
the steel touched the ice, and the
"rocKer" state maue its appearance.
Another happy thought knocked the
toe straps out'in' one round and gave
the steel clamps, tightened by means of
a double screw ana wrench, in place of
them. A. plate Jn the boot-heel, and
knob on the skate, said "good-bye" to
the heel-strap, and very shortly after
ward 'clamps -similar to those on the
toe made the heel of the skate nearly
perfect. A simple turn of the .wrist
connected the twosets of clamps with
a lever, andthe skate was made. The
a . .
Qlobe might have added that the pro
cess of evolution' has; to a very large
extent done away with skates, and sub
stituted rollers, which are now all the
craze. Brooklyn Times.
A A little, son of Mr. Hise Davie, of
