Minnochadazi about a mlle north of said village , and taking the Pine lidgo agency io > d that loads through ho southern part of Dakota. On our irat night out wo camped on the Mlnno- ohaduza ; on our second night out wo camped on the lonth fork of the White ivor , whloh atroam wo croised the next morning and took a westward course oror aa fine a country ns there ia In the great orrltory of Dakota , but It all belongs to ho noble rod man , a few specimens of which wo Bee freighting from Valentino o the agency , and beating and tnnng- Ing their poor griaa fed ponloa with the Brno grand oourago that they would for merly foal the scalp from the head of a > alo-faood infant. Tne third night wo "carapod on the load waters of the Whlto. Wo com menced onr fourth day's march the dla- .dvantagoa of a oold rnln driving from ho cho'erloss oxpanao of the noith which ontlnnod the whole day. Wo oimpod about i ho middle of the afternoon on n mall stream flowing northwest , a branch of the north fork of thn White rlvor , and uccotded In getting our horaci in n table owned by a "iqaaw man , " that Is a whlto man who has ono ef the daughter a of a noble rod man fora wife. The next morning , onr fifth day out , wo drove to ho saw mill owned by Dan Burr , of ) miJia , on the Wounded Knee , In this county and state. As It had o mmenced alnlng again wo cimpod in the fine tim- > cr near the mill , which had , very un- ortunatcly for us as well as the owner , tad burned two nights boforo. The next .ay It snowed all day and wo remained In lamp. The mill at Wounded Knee ia fteon miles from Gordon and on the morning of our seventh day for Valon- Ino wo started for the former place which wo reached about 2 o'clock p. m. The country between Wounded Knee nd Gordon is fine , and In fact all the tountry hereabouts is as good as the boat n Nebraska. Wo did not locate at Got- on for the reason that the olty teemed vorcrowdod with men of my profession , o wo rathed on to Rnsovlllo. which bids air , in onr estimation , to become the ounty eeat of Sheridan county , and hero wo have hung out onr shingle , hoping to make a little money off the "course of mpiro" as it "westward takes its way , " nd thn people who are flocking to this > art of Nebraska to make now homes in bis favored spot will find it to their ad- rantsgo to call on Shcffi r & Hccohou , and locators and surveyors at Rushville , herldan county , Nebraska.

It Is generally conceded by all who ako a broad view of education is that on f the great effects cf our present school yatem Is the laik of training of the eye nd hand. Until the very recent intro- nctlon of drawing into the schools the duration there given was entirely men- al entirely of such a nature that a be- og destitute of limbs or of any senses save sufficient to furnish the powers of eadlng and writing could master It. To peak a statement describing how a pro- ess was performed was accepted as a iroof of comprehension of that statement nd aa tantamount to ability for the per- ormanoe of the process. Some Improvo- nent baa latterly taken place. It ia no onger assumed , In all cases , that bo- ause a child recites a definition 10 understands it , or that because ho epcats a series of numbers that he knows mythlng of the subject to whloh they re- ate. Ascertain amount of questioning , if testing the child's ' comprehension , and n that very questioning spurring him to hink , Is now generally advocated and > ccaslonally practiced. Object teaching > y means of the eye has won a recognized ilaco In the schools , and , although many f the less qarnest and more old fashioned eachora would be qulto pleased to dla- icnse with U , U Is likely to keep Its place hore. But object teaching by the eye only ] useful though It is , is of less use to ho people In the struggle for life which awaits htm on bis departure from school ban Is that combination of visual 1m- ireaalons with muscular skill which is : nown as manual labor. While It la true that all the great ad vances made by humanity are primarily ho work of the world's great thinkers , secondarily the work of the world's great nyentors ( that 1 , thinking workers ) and n no eonss at all the work of the rink and file of humanity who profit by them , lot it is at the same time true that those vho bavo aooompliihed great results In irlglnal research or In Inventive design lave also In some way or other acquired ionaldoroblo manual skill. It is also trno that by this manual skill , and not by re- > eaich or by Invention , the great major- ty of individuals earn their bread and ; aln whatever comforts they possess. Manual training Is , In fact , the founda- ion upon which all higher training ought o be built. Without It , the postoaslon of ho most splendid facilities Is likely to )0 useless to the possessor ; with It , the man who never mastered an abstract iroposltlon becomes at least a useful uomber ot society. There was a time a generation . "or so ago when schools which gave only a mental and moral education gave all that was required of them. In thosn days ; ho school had no need to give manual raining scarjely any need to give phys- cal education cf any kind. As ednca- .lon was less universal than It now Is , schools less numerous , and school duties iavo for the tow who ran through the entire course and ended with tha uni versity ) lets exactlcg , the need of by- ; leulo school-rooms and of syttamatlo ex- jrcise had not forced Itself upon the [ ) ublio mind , which , In fact , in those days was obtuse to all physical and physiologi cal facts. But in the matter of manual training the want now felt was then sup plied outside of the schools snd better lupplled than schools can hope to supply It. Before a boy became a workman he was apprenticed for a term of years , and when he was graduated as a workman he know bis business , oreu though ho knew nothing else under the sun. Then came the , age of great ftotoriei , of m&cblnerj ( which somehow is entirely In the handi of ctpltal ) , of minute subdivision of bu man labor to fit the mtchlne , o the decadence of trades , the d < suso of apprenticeships , anc the establishment of trades-unions , thi members of which , do not , aa a tule know a trade , but only a part of one , yet tre jealous of any invasion of thel Ights. There is no longer any obaoc 'or ' a boy to losrn a trade ont of school Qe most toll u a workman of the lowet grido until , by dint of extraordlnar qulckneess , for a safe concurrence of cir cnmstancoj. or hard work In hours whlc' ' should bo devoted to rest or pleasure , h somehow acquires the necessary know ! edge. It is to supplement this want tha the natural training or Industrial schoo Is commenced , There may be errors a Its commencement ; It may bo that It wll : ommonco where It should leave off ; bn It Is a product of the age , mutt oomo.am must progress. TUB BULKY WAY , Ilovr the Chicago Milkman Politician Got Away With Flnorty. Washington Cor , FhiladolphU Kecord. I taw Dovlno the other night. Devlno s a Chicago milkman Me Chicago milk man , I suppose. Ho is the man who when presented to President Cleveland a ow days ago said : "Mr. President , J am looking at the man who boat Blalno and dynamite. Yon are looking at the man who boat Finorty and dynamite. " It was in a contest for the cily treasuroshlp of Chicago worth $50,000 a year , they ay thatDovlno boat Finorty last month. Tlnerty , having been defeated for a re- nomination to congress by ono of the ougheat toughs In that tough city , got ho nomination for the rich oillco of city roasurer as a sort of consolation purse , rinerty is very popular in Chicago , and olt certain of election. But Dovlno was milkman , and a very successful milkman ; > milkman who had made a fortune n milk and who could afford to spend "a good bit of money" for such a tempting htng as $50,000 office. Dovlno Is a soft nd smooth porton , with silky blaok hair , [ Iky black board and sleepy black oyos. Io bad a small army of aselstants , pro- esslonal and political. With their bund ed hands ho distributed milk tickets rlth carefully calculated prodigality over ho doubtful districts of the city the trouger the opposition in a ward the arger the number of milk tickats it re- elvcd. All Chicago was invited to re- rosh Its thirsty eoul at Do vino's "dairies. " iranch "dairies" were doubtless extern- lorlEod in drinking saloons , where milk innchos , egg flips , mint juleps and other mcollo drinks could be had In exchange or Devine'a milk tickets. Nor was this silent shower of milk tickets. Povlno's irsl'cs seemed to bo on the lips of every rind that blow they certainly were on bo cylinders cf every party organ. Do- Ino's partisans were everywhere. Well , o make a long story short , Deviuo was ilocted. Now ho Is hero helping evory- ) ody else who wants office , and with qual devotion helping the president in ila difficult task of making selections. HEES AND BEAttS. Boors Fishing in Oregon Logs Filled with Honoy. ortland News. A short time ego Samuel , Asa and Joe loladay , of Scappoto , took a trip over to 10 Lewis rlvor in order to look into the esonrces in that region. They found It most beautiful country , acd ono that Hera many Inducements to settlers , 'ho part visited llea cff in the direction > [ Mount St. Helena , and Is composed of > oth timber land and fine open tracts trhlch abound in game , largo and unall Vhilo encamrcd on the river they dic- overed an object that was1 as novel and ntcrcatlng as it was beautiful and btrlk- ng. ng.In their rambles through the pine woods they suddenly came npon a fallen ree across the path , which on Inspec- .on , they found to be hollow. Through knot-hole they could too something whlto , and at once began to Investigate , 'hey sawed Into the log , and were anr- irlsed to find that the whole Interior of ta log was filled solidly with honey , 'hey at once brought from their camp omo of their vessels to fill with this weetest of all nature's productions 'heir buckets and pans were soon filled , 'hen ' they sawed off another length of the og , and found it still solid with honey , 'hut they repeated , and took from It honey until they had opened up ten feet of rare , lovely honey , which yielded a comb hat was in many places four inches hick. Of this find they carried away 180 lonnds , which they declare was the finest hey over tasted , being far richer than he tame honey which they raise. Another strange thing which they ob- orvod was the taking of salmon by the > eara , which are abundant thoro. The > oara go down to the river at night , catch ho fish , bite of ! their heads , eat them , nd leave their bodies untouched. Their istaito for the body seems strange , nd their preference for the heads has never been explained even by the In- ians. Must Have Had Hard Shell * . A Florida correspondent of the San i'ranclaco Chronicle tells a snake story hat vras vouched for by a gentleman of its acquaintance and in bis own words : "Wo had a good breed of hens nnd wore right proud of them. Two were plcndid batchers Giddy and Golly. Yon may laugh at the names , but they were ; lven by a pet sister , who has been dead aany years. After hearing a sermon one Sunday the decided to call her two hen hickons Gideon and Goliath. She was o delighted with them that mother indn't the heart to change them , and so , amidst the laughter of the household , we hrlstened them Giddy and Golly. They rore handsome creatures , and never latched less than fifteen out of sixteen eggs. eggs."Ono day my brother gravely Informed mo that ho had seen a big snake tn a corner cf the barn , and we set ont to innt for it. As wo neared the place here seemed to bo an unusual commo- ion among the hens , and Giddy and lolly were vociferating on the edge of heir respective nests in Ihe language of heir Ilk with such vehemence that wo could not hear onreolves speak. Then wo wera sure that the snake had been brew * ng trouble and wo sesrched the barn til wo found it. Pinning It by the head In .ho . corner , I cut it open and there wai thirteen of Golly's big whlto eggs , still warm and comf pi table , These were Im mediately transferred to the nest , making jolly happy over her recovered treasures. Well , madam the tbitteen eggs that had : oen In the snake's maw wore every ono batched and grow up Into matronly hen bood , quite oblivions to their narrow escape and curious vicissitude.

Ilalston In New Yotk Time ? . An Intimate friend of Dan Mr.ce hie boon regaling mo with entertaining reminiscences of the famous driver. Out of his stories may mildly bo called a little astonishing. Mace told the tale to Friends In whom ho ttusted , but secresy was always imposed upon his hearers ; for , thought it was perhaps the text of the chief boast of his life , there were some phases of It in which , for apparent rea sons , ho took no personal pride , "Years ago , " began my authority , "when forty-pound sulkies and shin and mstorn boots wcra unknown , Lsdy Thorno headed the list of trot tors. Dan was the only man who could over get the ast loop ont of her. Tricky and a trifle mean when she was stale , she sometimes ; ot Dan ont of patience. Ono hot Ftl- lay morning In July , when Maoo wont o her stall , the animal wai unusually igly , Almost fiercely she turned upon Old Blue Jacket * and fastened her teeth upon his shoulder. Dan was hurt and ) an was very mad. Ho ordered hla men to put a strong bridle on the boasa , nd take her into a covered onclosuret With the long bridle roln over . ilgb stringer ho had the men laul the mara'a head high Into the Ir , and then taking a now driving whip Dan laid it on with might and main , tioutlng and yolllno ; at the mare con- inually ; break away she could not , nnd loforo the old man got through with horde do was covered with foam and trembling iko an atpen loaf. A wild , frightened eok was In her eye , and if over a borso pponred heartbroken Lady Thorno did n that July day. "But Dan's Ire was neb appoased. Hook her up,1 ho said to 'Billy' Hunter , who wai with him then as his head ; room ; 'hook her np and take this watch nd catch my second mile. I'll ' loosen lor up a bit on the first mile , and then 'm going to spnd her on the repeat for 11 she Is worth. You take that time. ' CTow , my old girl , I'll fix you , ' ho said ternly , na ho caught the rolns behind the iflrlghtod horse. Ho seemed to hold her ) ack with difficulty on the first mllo. ho feared that cruel whip. Gradually ettlng her out she came down to the Parting post for the second mlle like a ash , and away she wont. "Tho watch entpped as It began timing mile , which Dan Mace averred to his ying day was the fastest over spun by a rotting horse in all the world. How ho 'elled. How ho laid on ihe lash ! Hooted otod like a maniac. Under every blow < ady Thorno sped along faster and faster , while gaping , awe-stricken hostlers looked n in spcecbleu amazement , for such rotting as this not ono had over dared to rosm of. Down the back stretch tore , ho frightened animal , too frightened to > roak , trotting cqnarely without a skip , round the lower turn and down the retch sailed the mare , whlto with foam , peckled with blood. Within 100 feet of 10 wire Mace let ont a screech more ildoous oven than any that had proceeded t. Lady Thorno flaw through the air aster still , and like lightning shot under 10 wire. Hunter looked at the stop watch , grow pale and shnt the case with vehement snap. "That watch marked 2 08 , " said my nthusiastio friend , "and 2.08 it was. " "I am willing to take the word of Billy Innter and the word of Dan Mace that jadv Thorne on that day trotted the astost mile this world ever saw. Reform With Vengeance , A Washington dispatch to the Globe ) emocrat of St Louis says : lie civil servlco reformers are raising row over the appointment of Col Swlt- ler , of Missouri. A protest has been made , in which It Is alleged that Whitney , ho man displaced from the Chief Clerk- hip of the Bureau of Statistics , was one f the most efficient and useful men In the Veosury Department , and that it will be mposslblo for a political appointee snob as Col. Swltzler is said to be to perform ho duties satisfactorily. This Is the first Ismlssal of the Chief Oleik of a Treasury inrean on partisan grounds , and causes inch uneasiness among cfliclals of this lass , who relied npon being retained If heir records wore good. But the prompt- less with which Secretary Manning ollowod np the appointment of Swltzlor with the removal ot two chiefs of dlvls- ons , adds to the bad feeling and still urtbor disgusts the civil service refer mers. What was predicted some time go Is now becoming plainly apparent , hat in the Treasury Department , If no where else , there is to be a practical cx- mpHfication of the principle to the vie- nra belong the spoils. It is In rain the eformera urge that Treasury chiefs of ivlslon have never been political ap- lointeos under Republican Admlnlstra- Ion ; that the chiefs of division , over eventy In number , have nearly all risen rom low-grade clerkships and are men of years of experience ; that not a few of hem are Democrats ; that President Hoveland has declared himself to bo op- > oscd to removals of this kind. The lunges are taking piece. When Mr. iTannlng gets through with all the places lOchnlcally above the civil torvlco rules , and when Mr. Eagono Hlgglns has re organized the forces of messengers , watchmen and other employs below the Ivll-sorvico classes , the work will atop , and not before. There is sitting and landing room for several thousand Dem ocrats In the Treasury Department , and hey will get thoro. Ontdoor Work and Exerclso , ndlanapolli Times , This Is the season of muscular enjoy- nent ; a few weeks ago it was too cold ; n a few weeks more it will bo too hot or any but professionals to enjoy the xcessive outdoor sports , The profes- ional baseball player goes through' the ardors of his game with the sun driving ho thermometer up to 08 ° or 100 ° in he shade , and rests as soundly at night and wakes up as froah and healthy the next morning as does the man who stacks straw or cradles wheat at a like temper atnre , The reason is the same in both : ases : the body Is accustomed to outdoor exorcise on every day of every month in , he year. The fathers and mothers of many of the men and women who can not walk a square without the shelter of an umbrella in midsummer , and who dread a walk across the street In Decent- jor , were accustomed to do harvest work and "tend garden" In July , and to chop cordwood and make soap In a kettle iwung on a pole out of doors In Decem ber and January. It Is needless to say that these people were quite aa happy anc far more healthy than their weather fearIng - Ing offspring. Needless exposure to the extremes of heat and cold should be avoided ; not less BO needless siclnsloc from the open air or abstinence from bodtly exercise , There are very fen days in the year on which an hour a out door exercise would not be of benefit t both the body and talnd of all personL ordinary health.
