"A Timid Urave , " written by William Justin llnrshn , of Omaha , and published by Funk & Wagnalls , New York , receives the following notice in the Uoston Herald : "ATimid Urave , " is the story of an Indian uprising , which leaves the render utterly paralvxcd nnd dumb with indignation. It is a simple , straightfor ward statement of a series of Indian out rages outrages of white men upon the Indians , which is far more powerful and oll'ectivo than any attempt nt line writing or any striving alter dramatic clfcct could possibly have boon. Not that it is defi cient in dramatic points it is composed almost exclusively of that clement , so that onu hardly has an opportunity to eatcli one's brenth between thorn. The author has merely kept himself sternly in hand lust lie should incur the slightest suspicion ot having exaggerated any thing or .said anything from a feojing of malice. That the cnso is stated with the most absolute fairness is plain , and it is plain that justice , even of the decidedly defective order which is dealt out by the courts to white men , is nil he asks for the Indians. It is not of such a godlike qual ity that the white men need begrudge it to their red brethren , certainly. They would bo able to cheat the poor crea tures as shnmefullv as over , ns the records of man's ilo.iling with man in any court in the country will conclu sively prove , whore the worst man with the worst cause almost invnrmbly comes out abend , Wo surely ought to give the Indians a chance nt that sort ot justice , if they want it , and accompany it with pur humblest apologies for havlntr noth ing bolter to oiler. There is no senti mental whining over the subject to which any ono onn possibly tnko exception , but , as n forcible presentation of the In dian question , it should take rank with Mrs. Helen Hunt's "itamonn , " nnct should bo rend by everyone. We have just received n book from the publishers entitled "Don't Marry"which contains some practical advice in refer ence to this most important of all sub jects. Some marry too soon , others wait too long. This book will tell you bow , when , and whom to marry ; besides civ- ing you valuable hints and helps not found in any other book- .

LOUia LOLA MONTEZ AND KING LOUIS The Career of a Notorious Abandoned Woman In Munich. She Looked Like n Diiolicss niul Tnlkcd Like ft I-'Ish Woinnn-Sbo Trilled With n King , Karncit n Title , niut Died The tragic events recently enacted In Itavnrfa recall tho'c of 1H1S in which Lula Monte/ played so conspicuous a part. LordMnlmcsburv snys in his me moirs : "Uy her intrigues nt Munich it is certain that this woman 1M loose the rev olutionary tempest which swept ever Kuropu during that memorable yunr , 1818. " The importance that our noble lord attaches to Lola Montox is exagger ated ; nevertheless , she was the heroine of strange events nnd her career will be found interesting to the readers of the ii : : . She is still remembered by hosts of Parisians. She was impudent , bold , cnr- ried pistols in her pockets , nnd horse whipped the men who displeased her. Urutal in her' passion , gross in her Inn- gunge , she was n true virago under an exquisite form. Tlie delicacy of her com plexion , her largo and somber eyes , her brown hair , her lithe figure llexible ns a rush , her graceful carriage all gave her a singular power of fascination. Tohenr her ono would have taken her for n lish woman , to sec her pass ono would have taken her for a duchess. She turned many bends , broke many hearts , emptied many pocKetbooks. She wns u thorough adventuress , nnd it mny bo said with morn until of her than of any ono else that her life was a romance. \\heie and when was she born ? At .Seville' At Montrose , in Scotland ? Limerick in Ireland ? In 1818 ? In 1S.M ? Nobody knows. Her father came from Spain ; her mother wns a Creole. During her infancy Lola , whoso real name was Mnria Dolores , wns tnkcn to the Kast Indies , then to Scotland , and then to Knglaiul , where she wns placed in a boarding school in the city of Bath. Still young , weak nnd charming , she clopcil witli Captain Thomas James , who married her and took her to Calcutta. Dresiod like n man , astride of a horse , she imulo the campaign rngainst tlio Afghans , and nt tlie side of her hus band traveled through to Cabulistan and the country of Ca iuncro. Despite this strange and exciting life there wns some thing in an existence controlled by the conjugal tie which displeased her. She was of an independent spirit ; she was born n bobeminn ; every yoke was insup portable. While her husband was away on some uistTulf Military duty she left India and returned to JMirofwi nCVf * " . m wm company cannot bo told. Hhe went 40 London , Madrid , Paris and Brussels. Klcgaiil and well supplied with money ? Nd. Singing in the public places every night and glnd to < ret n few dirty sous. In 1830 she obtained an engagement as dnnsouso in a Berlin theatre. A Polish gentleman so her there , fell in love with her , and took her to Paris , where he afterward abandoned her. In 1810 she entered the Theatre Porto St. Martin ns a supernumerary , or but little better. Hero she remained for * -ome time , haying no other resources than those ol which she should not hnve cnrcd the boast. Then Dujnrrier , manager of La Prcsse nnd a generous and gallant fellow , well- known in the theatrical green-rooms , re marked ; iior nnd succumbed to her charms. A liaison , such as is common enough in Paris , was established. The notoriety of Lola Montez dates from this time. JJujnrrior wns killed in a duel , which led to a criminal trial in which Loin figured ns a witness , she be came the heroine of the hour. Her ec centricities wore pronounced trcs chic , and her tnvor found n purchaser nt any price. A young Englishman named Au gustus Pap'an took her to London , which she soon left to escape her husband , Thomas James , whom she board wns in pursuit of her. She wont to > Germany , and ran the rounds of the towns , risking n few llorlns at the gaming tables nnd attaching hemplf from preference to "foreigners of distinction. " Toward the end of 1840 , she established herself at Stuttgnrdt , and throw more than one planco of the eye toward the king of Wurlombcrg , but old Wijlinm remained insensible ; ho wns deeply infatuated with tlio actress , Amelia Stnbenrauoh , and did not care to replace her with this bold nd- venturer Lola Monto/ was discouraged , and in the spring of 1847 she arrived at Munich. Tlioro reigned KingLouis I , of luxurious memory. Born in 1780 , he was then fli.xly-one years old. An antiquated troubadour , but a trou- bndour like nil the Wittolsbnch , he hnd published sonic poems and "Los Com- pagnons do AVnllialhi. " Ho loved only antiquity , and in antiquity ho preferred tlio worship of Venus. Every beauty wns certain to be cordially received by him , and beauties oamo to him from the four corners of the earth , llo bad their portraits painted nnd suspended in an apartment where ho liked Jo go and med itate. A very good man withal , without malice nnd very devout. The Jesuits led him by the end of his scepter , nnd practi cally governed the kingdom. The old king rewarded them with ft line show of religious onthusiusm nnd followed the processions like n deacon , but the good lathers wore careful to reserve the windows dews before which the cortege wns to pass nnd place the prettiest women in them that could bo found , In thu midst of sncrcd chants and smoking censers walked the king , his CJCH turned to heaven , or rather to the windows whence so many lovnly glances and engagmc smiles descended upon him , "It is well for sovereigns , " ho would any , "to give nn example of the respect that is duo to religion , " Lola Montcz know how to attrnet his eye and enslave his fancy. She wns then ut the height of her marvelous beauty. The king was dazzled and his dlsea.se became - came incurable. She wns received nt court , "She is my bent friend , " said the monarch , silly with love , us ho presented her to his family and to the ambassadors. Ail" . 1-1 , 1847 , a royal order dated at Asclinll'cnbourg granted her Jotters of naturalization. She was named Baroness do Kosenthal , and shortly afterward Countess do Lansllcld , with a govern ment pension of 0,000 florins. The king built her ainngi'ificont pnlaco nml com manded the queen to grant this bray.cn fuco the grand order of Thoresc. Two or three ministers who ventured to oppose him wore forthwith dismissed , Loin Montog herself formed n liberal ministry anil then overthrew it because it did not satisfactorily respond to her designs. She governed the king , she governed Bavaria , in Germany she was a power , and she dreamed of invading \Yiirtom- \ berg. That was madness assuredly , but she was still loss mad than the king , It wns not n good time for thrones ; the year 1818 the rod year as they called it ut Berlin was already n month old , nml its first lisping resembled n cry of revolt. At the beginning of February nn nssocin- tiou of students made nn outbreak nt Munich. Lola Montedeccndcd into the street on foot , without escort , and under took to go through the crowd. Kccog- ni/.eil , hooted nt , insulted , she sought .refugoin the nearest houses , but they closed their doors in her face. The porter of the Austrian legation drew his sword to prevent her from entering. The kin" then made his way to her , ottered her hU arm , ; ind led hcrinto a neighbor ing church. Souip olliccrs hurried for word to rejoin tte king , when Lola took n pistol from one of them , rushed into t ho street , and , aiming It nt the throng , threatened to shoot. This tlicatrio.il inn- nemor only increased the anger of the mob. and hcnvon only knows what would have happened had not a squad of guardsmen , hastily ordered to thu seene , protected the retreat of tlio Haronoss Hosenthal , Countess tlo Lanslicld and lady of tlio royal order Thereto. The students Had told her some hard tiling1' ' ; they rankled. February 10th a royal order closed the university for a year. The event stirred up by the stu dents grow rapidly. Thu workingiueii wcro drawn intpjl , the burgooise made barricades ? the cries were not "Long live tlie constitution , " or "Long live tlio re public , " but "Down with the concubine. " J'ho municipal body of the chamber of peers obtained the king's consent to her exile. Slip departed , escorted by sol diers , who had hard work to keep tlie in dignant populace from tearing her to iiiectH. Her pnlaeo was plundered ; the King wa siozed with tlie fantastic notion of attending tlto tillage incognito , some body broke n looking glass over his head nnd ho was curried blooding to his pnl aeo. Two hours later Loin Alotito/ , dis guised , wus back in Munich , but the king was well guarded and could not see Her. For more than a month , hidden in tlio inns of the suburban villages , she lin gered around Mtmioh , hoping to bo re qnlled and clinsti.-e the people who had driven her nwny. Hut it was in vniu tne king was no longer free. She hnd led him lee far , the poor sire , so far that on March ! 20th , 1818 , in order to save the future of the dymusty Hint his miserable passion had compromised , he was forced lo abdicntu in favor of Ma.vmillan II , his eldest son. Loin Monte/ departed for Switzerland nnd resided for some time on tliu banks of Lake Constance. Hut she was not mndo for a solitary life. She knew it anil betool ; herself to London , where her adventures had rendered her celebrated. Here she married a man mimed lloald , who possessed an income of $10,000. The Countess do Lanslield then legally changed her name , but the familv into which she had marrleit appeared to have no kindly feeling for her , for it brought an action against her on the charge of bigamy on tlio ground that her lii > t husband wits not dead. The motive was at least plausible , and Heald hastened to tnko his wife ncross the channel In 18r > 2 ho was accidentally drowned at LIsLon and shortly afterward Thomas James died. Lola was rid of her two husbands. She weut to America , where she ap peared in n drama composed by herself , entitled "Tho Adventures of Lola Monte/ in Bavaria. " At New Orleans its pleas antries were badly received , and she was obliged to leave the city. She went to San Francisco , and , as H is said that a bnndsonio woman need never want for anything , she found n third husband , a Mr. Hull , tlio proprietor of a San Fran- ci co newspaper. In spite of this new tic. or rather on ac count ot it , she continued her wandering life. She tried to live in Paris , but wns driven away by the importunities of her Creditors , She organized a dramatic company niui f.UyCd . In Anstnilju , gbo returned"to America and lectured on Her life with some miaco s , and ended by dying poor , abandoned , but still de praved , Alexander Dumas 'pcro ' , who knew her nnd wns not superstitious , used to .sny tlmt she had an evil eye , that destiny was against any one who became her com panion. 1 Too Miiny Iicqulrcmeiits. Chicago Times : About two months ago n young liussian sat in his room in college , smoking a cigarette , drinking wine , nnd playing n game of whist with three of his elnssmntes. A stranger entered and presented him witli a lengthy document. It proved to be the will of his bnohelor uncle , who had recently died. Hy its provisions nil his estate , consisting of residences and business blocks in Moscow aud St. Petersburg , farms , forests , government securities , and bank stock , was left to this young man. The valuable legacy , however , was left to him on cortam conditions. He wns from the time the contents of the will were made known to him to abstain from the use of pipes , cigars , nnd cigarettes ; to stop plnyine cards or engaging in tiny other game , nnd to marry a Russian girl nnd go to housekeeping within the space of six months. In case he was- detected smoking or playing nny nme at nny time during his lifo , or in the event that ho did not marry and "settle down" within the apace of six months , all the property was to go to the three executers named in the will. As soon as the will wns rend , the throe visiting students congratulated their host on his good fortune , while they filled and raised their glasses to drink bis health. They then relighted their cigarettes and picked up their hands of cards. Their companion , who was still holding the will , thought of its contents nnd did not touch his tobacco or cards. In a few days ho wont to look at his property , but the disposition to smoke and play cards while on his journey was very strong. He watched every gnme that ho saw in progress , and took more I-itcrest in it than over boforo. On more than ono occasion ho bought cigars , but bo thought of the will before ho lighted one of them. Ho soon hnd good reasons for believing tlmt the executors of the willVero follow ing him in disguise Wherever bo w nt , or were employing detectives to do so. Ho wns constnntly helm : invited to smoke or to piny cards. He had never been n per sistent smoker or n gamester. But ho now became convinced Hint most of the pleasures of life Wore nssoclnted with cards and tobacco smoke. He almost envied - vied the lot of the laboring men ho saw going to work with lighten pipes In their mouths. Ho saw moro pleasure In playing cards in a hovel than living in n palace Wherd nil kinds of gaining wore strictly prohibited. Since ho wns a mere laa ho hnd been regarded ns h "Indies' mnn. " Ho wns very fond of making himself attractive to the girls , in whoso society * ho spent much time. But since lift found th.it he must not only "mnko lovo" lo n girl but marry her within the period of six months , or nllow n largo fortune to pass into other hands , bo "has fought shy" of the Indies , He appears to think tlmt every matron who engages in conversation with him is n professional match-maker or is trying to gtt.a dnughter oil" her hands. He is no longer sweet on ladles , and actually repeats to dislike their company. Ho no' ' longer attends oporns. balls , or receptions. It is even reported that "ho has goni | b ck" on nil the girls ho was once attentive fo. Some declare that the young JIIAJI is afraid to ask n girl to marry him , for fear that she will decline on the ground that it Is a policy match. On the whole , this young Mus covite appears to be loss happy tlinn lie was when his nnclp had his line prop erty to himself , , "Ho wants the two things ho must deny himself of , nnd cures nothing about Urn-onu ho must linvo or lolinqulah his claim to a princely for tune.

After 11 whlla the little girl saw an oppor tunity to makfl n remark. "ilj papa , " she said , "always drinks whisky when ho is tick. " Then she stopped for a minute , her eyes softened and saddened and ahu con tinued slowly ; "And poor pnpn is sick nearly ull the time.

'I'lln'Vliilo was thu bo s thief for cheek as well as for luok , as one might know , for ho was n newspaper man from tlie start , and it was when he wns druv out of the busi- iio.-s that ho cauglit on to the Boston suckers and showed his inutile , llo was tlio only man I ever know who robbed a mnn twice of nil ho had ; ruined him the first time nnd cleaned him out the next , all iindur thu guise of friendship.

I'm blamed if I don't believe lie stele n coitnle of millions in his time , nnd yet ho died poor. Whore did it all go toV You ask mo too much. Ono thing f can tell you ; very little went back to the rightful owners. Some of it was lost in tlie Hood that swallowed up his fowl farm on that Louisiana island , where ho had n fortune invested , doubtless much of it was 'blown in' at faro. That's flio way nine-tenths of all stolen money goes , and I hat's how gamblers Ihe. To my mind ; tlmt is the principal objection to gambling. You bet your money against a thief's , put up by nis backers , und tlio chances arc not even. " "The real thief isn't the man that steals , but the one wlo puts up for thu tools nml hikes the protit , but nonu of the risk. Ho is the fellow who gets rich nt the business. Tlio others die poorer than rnts , in jail or in their boots , accord ing to luok or to the wliim of their mas ter , whose slaves they are , oven tlio best of them. CJeorgu Howard wns ono of Ilium. Ho wnsj a regular moc'hnnical genius , nnd used to buy bank locks nnd sncii and study their mechanism and the way to overcome it for months nnd months in his loom , before he would tackle the job.

Ho stele moro money than would have made nny man comfortably rich before ho was found dead at n railway depot , witli a kit of burglars' tools bcsulo him , stricken down by apoplexy or heart disease , just as ho wns going nt a job. He hnd just got out of tlio Ohio penitentiary alt or serving out n seven years' sentence. No money wns over found after him , and for good reasons ho didn't have any. There wns a bunk burglar shot dead ever in Jersey when ho was blowing m > a safe. John Hughes wns his name , and ho had gambled away moro'n ono fortune m Sow York , but for all that enough money to bury him decently couldn't uu got to gether. THIKVKS WHO DIKP AS PAl'I-HHS.

He was clover al tlie trade nnd hnd ruined a score of men. When ho escaped from Sing Sing once , ho did it so neatly that his keeper never could find out how , till fnlo sent him back to show thorn nnd hnve a laugh nt their espouse. There's lots of other thieves that died in their boots , but tnoso will do. Just lot mo count in Jim Casey , who comes to my mind in that connection. ' 'Jim was n bank burglar , n good one. Ellen , his wife , wns ti tramp , too. In tlio July riot in 1871 , when she wns a pickpocket on Eighth nveniie , she was shot in thu log , nnd at the hospital they found twelve pocket-books and purses in her clothes. Jim nnd her worked the racket together for all they worn worth. Jim was shot dead by Tom McCormic , his pall , in a Twenty-seventh street sa loon in argument about sharing the boodle from a Philadelphia bailie they had cracked. Tlmt busted this firm , nnd no assets were found to administrate on. Jim had'blov.'od ilin'nt fnro. The old woman is stealing in England now if she isn't in jail.
