At 0 o'clock ' ho was called Into the ward on's olllco mid there was told that iu thro Lours ho would bo a frco man. The effect can bottorbo imagined than do ncrlbod , His tongue \vns pimllzod forth in&inent and tears of Joy trickled down th' ' old man's ' cheeks. IIo thankfully rocelvoi the congratulAtlotis of the warden and til auistniits. The hateful convict garb wns ro- inoved and instead was suhitituted a line suit of ulothcs. The transformation was wonderful. Warren ClouKU aftcrboinp un justly burled alive for JUtcon years wns him self tigaln. Tbo frco AVarrcn Clough looked llko a congressman or unreal capitalist , and n person looking Into that kindly face and at the tull and well proportioned JlKUro would never believe that ho bail been llttcen yours in prison. Tbo consciousness that he was an innoceut man suffering the penalty thnt should luivo boon mated to hU brother's mur ders lnul left its impress on his isoblo face nml bad developed a"gentlc ! dignity that will innlco him friends overywlicro. Mr. Clouith was then driven to the depot by Hlchard Norval , brother of the Judge of the BUpromo court , who has done a great deal to prove Clouijh's Innocenco. The depot was crowded , but Clough attracted unusual at- tcntio : : by his distlnguhhed appearance , al though but few know nhohowiM. In com pany with Attorney Norvul Mr. Clough wont on the noon train to Sewnrd , which he left fifteen years agon purported convict. Tbo suddenness of the pardon has notflvon him any chance to formulate his plaits for tno future. The misfortune that most weighed upon the old man's mind during his incarroration was the fact thnt his \\lfo liaa secured a divorce - vorco during his Imprisonment ami married again , and when hostepped forth today vin dicated the partner of his early years was not at tbo prison doors to ( 'reet him and sliuro with him the Joys of freedom.

"Benjamin llrlnk , MoquI , Arl. , " was written on the register nt the Palmer IIOUBO in Chicago the other day by a ro bust-looking' man of sixty , somewhat wlmtbtooD-shouldoroil. Mr. Brink is mi Indian tnulut * . and 113 Moiul la ninety inllos away from the Pacitto rallro.id , ho says ho did not hour about the tfoublo uiuoiiL' the Indiana in the northwest unt/il four days ago. "From what I hnvo hoard of the 'irhostdunco , ' "said Mr. Brink to a reporter - porter for the Tribune. "I cannot see uhy It should stir up such n row. The 'snako dnnco , ' I believe , is ton times moro exciting' , und the Jiani , Navajo and MoquI Indians on the reservation near my homo work thoinsolves into a perfect frenzy during Its progress , but never think of molesting the whites. "It Is a part of their religion , though , and if uny attempt were made to stop It I believe there would bo bloodshed. The dunce takes place once in two years. The last one was celebrated In July. Preparations were made several weeks before it cama off , and I was us anxious to bo n spectator as they woro. A stranger or wilder ceremony I never saw. I hope I shall never sco it again. The dance took place just before sun down , and I got up on a little ledge where I could got a good , vlow. The space allowed for the dancers was not largo and was Inclosed. Fifteen flno- looking Indians began to walk rather slowly nt llrst around a hupro stone in the ci-ntor of the inclosuro. They were al most naked , and every part of their bodies ies , oven to their feet , was smeivrod with a red and grocn paint. Each man had a fox's scalp dangling from his waist and in each hand carried 11 rattle macio of a , gourd. Hoofs of door wore tied nround their ankles and wrists and utoachbtepaud movement of the arm noise enough was made to wako the dead. "Tho sankos to bo used in the dance hue boon caught several days before the fete , and just before the dnnco , had boon placed in a cluster of trees beneath which I stood. After the men had yelled until they were lioarso and had made themselves tired with stamping the ground , fifty more painted redskins cama rushing dowa a hill , lllod Into the incloduro , and then began such a tumult ns I never want to hoar again. At a given signal the sixty-five now thoroughly frantic men made a rush for the grove where the snakes were hidden. Each man came rushing back with a wriggling and squirming snake , its nook between his teeth so it could not bite him , ro-ontorod the ring and began a slow walk around the cuntor-stono. The reptiles hissed nnd ilashod their tails and bodies around the necks of the apparently mad red men. Several of thorn were bitten by the siuiljes , which wcro the most venomous In the coun try. It is n wonder till of the perform ers were not bitten. Two of them died iv clay or two after the dance , the herbs anpliod not being suBlciont to draw out the nulson. "After the ceremony each man snatched hissnnko from his mouth , ran down into the valley below , and there the reptiles were sot free. The Indians were thoroughly exhausted after their violent oxorelso and could scarcely crawl back up the hill. From what I could learn such ceremonies as the 'snake dance have boon hold for centu ries. " Among Ills Grandchildren. J. R.

AVithout question our population will continue to bo In creased by immigration , but the Ameri can young women of today will decide the futuroof this great country , for they are to bo by n vast majority tlio wives nnd mothers of future voters. And the mother of two boys has double the voting 'power of her husband.Vomon'vrltos ' Ucnun , "aro tlio spiritual trustees of our race , " And what is mount by the "future of America,1' for which you will bo In such great measure responsible ? It is Idle to listlessly Imagine that the United States have nearly reached their full develop ment. The swaddljng clothes have boon dispensed with , but knickerbockers ami roundabouts are still in uso. The land hus grown with marvelous rapidity , nnd Is now as the long lanky youth , probably It will never iigain move forward with such tremendous strides , but the strength , the breadth , the manly devel op ment is yet to como. The young1 people ple of today especially the girls will cause ours' to be either the grandest , the greatest , the most magnificent nation ever seen on earth , or ono llko others which have enjoyed partial su premacy , and that but for a bhort time. It is dilllcult to realize all that is In cluded in "tho future of America."ally it is meant not merely the legislation at "Washington , und throughout the vari ous states , counties , and cities , for ns Salvini recently said to the writer : "All the world looks to this country for the future development of art. " This is the virgin field ; it hus boon tilled somewhat , and a few great lights have sprung up and illuminated the world. Eut with free nmalgumutlon of races and unsurpassed diffusion of frco education , America Is capable of produc ing ; a galaxy of poets , painters , authors , musicians , actors , business mid profes sional men and women , singers , invent ors , financiers and statesmen such us the world has never soon ; and the world ox- jiocts of America this production. The future belongs to the western hemisjihero ; nnd the hitter's guardian is the United States. "And yet , " you say , "what have I to do with realizing this grand possi bility ? " Young women have everything to do with it If you tire the mother of ono child , or if you shall bo auoh , more than anyone else you will make him a truth ful or a deceitful man , an honest or n dishonest woman. You wHl tmvo the power to muko that child nn upright , educated , hono.tod member of society , era a prrnsito upon the community. Think of the transcendent Influence 'which has boon wielded by individual mon and women. Iinaplno , if possible , what could bo accomplished if only the girls and boys who loft school and college last Juno , should realize what depends upon their future lives. Yet , nine chances to ono , your children will never rise ubovo mediocrity unless you , yourself , do to. And therein lies the practical point of those suggestions. The first year a girl loaves school or college decides to a great degree whether she will rise to bo honored and respected or sink to the moral , physical level of those who comuoso the average of American society. During those six months a girl's mind is in a peculiarly receptive condition , but alasl in most cases this nppotlto for the acquiremen of knowledge disappears when the teacher's spur is withdrawn. This , however , is not always the case , us the following instance will prove ; There nro In Eoston today four women , leaders in the most exclusive society. They are recognized us women of real intellect and brilliancy , and tlio influence they have wielded has boon enormous. Tweuty-iivn years ago last Juno these fourgruuatod from the sarno class in the Biimo semi nary. They had been old friends , and their parents were persons of education and ability. For several weeds before graduation those girls had boon talking about their possible futures , and they made up their minds that their livoi would not bo wasted altogether. Thoi agreed to moot once a week for Severn" hours of real study , and they carried ou the plan , A course in history wn mapped out , and when the dny arrive" the mmrtolto came together. Ono roa aloud and the others listened attentively sometimes sowing , sometimes makini notes for future reference , always stoi : ping for the discussion of passages who necessary. "Week after week aau mont after month they mot thus. Gradual ! . , they became known nnd appreciated. All married , and by a coincidence all lived In or near by I5oston , Twenty years from the time they graduated ono of these women said that in nil that tlmo not u single wcok had passed but at least two of them mot and continued reading together ; most of the time throe were present nnd at half the meetings all four were thoro. Thla case is us remarkable us it is true. Another. Now England owes part of tlio prestige of her schools to u man whoso name is known to history , especially In connec tion with revolutionary alTairs Judge Phillips , who founded the famous academies ut IC.xotorund Andover , which bear his inuno. The grand-daughter of this man , Tdino. Clements , Inherited her ancestor's intellect nnd love for study , She married a poor man , and had no money of her own , for her grandfather , while ho lived , had given his grcut fortune for liberty nnd edu cation. Her husband never accumu lated moneyed wealth , and she was com pelled for u score of yours to perform her own housework and do her own cooking , She was so bright , however , as to reall/.o whut this drudgery would loud her to if it were not enlivened by mental rest und rncroation ; so she de cided that nt least ono nour a day should bo spent in study. She was the mother of several children , and iu caring for thorn she worked all duy and frequently much of the night , Hut she never gave uji her plan of rending. It was by no moans uncommon for her to pick up u work on history , philosophy or econo mics at IU or oven 11 o'clock at night und sit down for her most enjoyable hour. The result was that Madame Ulomonts became u learned woman , whoso society was sought , whoso friendship was cher ished by the roojiji prominent people in Now Knglnmu. Instead ot aid ing household cares to fatigue hor. that hour ijf study kept nor mind bright , actlvo ( eager for more knowledge. She IJ.VI.M ! to old uge , and left several children , In wlmm her Influ ence and counsel' ) are plainly evident. This woman's valutTto the community in hlch she lived crin never bo estimated. There are many among the renders of 10 Press who could follow her example they would only.mako . the effort , "wo nro willing. " " you bay , "but how inn we start ? " There are a thousand Ideas , any of hlch might bo curried out. You are ionvorsutit with the few greatest .tithors that the world has produced ? f not , start in to make the ac- untntance of. half , a dozen dur- ig the coining winter. Do you now .how to write n chock , or note payable in sixty days ? L k your father or brother to take ou to the bunk the next tlmo ho goes , nd to oxolaln the mysterious processes.

Have ou a taste for music , nnd do you really ivork or merely practice on the piano wo or three tlrnos a week whotiovoryou 'feel in the mood ? ' Can you walk live miles without exhaustion and then go to 'led and sleep for ton hours ? Do you enow how to dross becomingly and add .o your good looks ? If not you would better acquire the art. Do you Know who is at the head of the governments of r'ranco , Switzerland , Russia , Turkey , Afghanistan ? What does Mr. Secretary Blulno moan by his reciprocity plan ? Can you tell at sight oproductlonsof mastorplecos by Angola , lombrandt , Rubens ? What do you know if the greatest composers , poets , Invent ors , theologians , scientists ? The average girl who sits down nnd calmly runs ever u list of the few things iho does not know is apt to exclaim : 'Good gruel oust there's no use in try- ng. " Yet it has been truly said that a iiorsoa who pursues a single study for : wonty minutes u day during twenty years may bo an authority in his chosoii ivork. An excellent way to begin is to join a .ocal assembly of the Cliautauqua htor- ary and sniontllle circle. These organi zations exist in every part of the land and auyono may become a member. The expense is trilling , the courses of study laid ot are exceedingly interesting otid most excellent. So much for the young \fornan who does not have to earn her own living. But the girl employed in olllco , store or factory bus just us good , a uhanco , and she usually progresses with far greater rapidity , for she upprocintos the value pf spare moments. In this country it makes Httlo diffor- ouco what your work may bo , so long as it is honestly performed. At twenty years of ago the author of "Little women" was for a time a domestic serv ant in the employ of a family who paid her the munificent salary of S2.50 per week. Do you think the experience in jured the solf-rospcet of Miss Alcott ? She succeeded because she worked hard , and regulated her hours of labor and recreation. That is the koynpto of success. Got to work this winter , but plan your work , and respect the regularity. If you can cook dainty little dishes you can sell them. If jou cun draw clever pictures the capers will eagerly pay for thorn. If you can write bright , original stories , essays , sketches , or gossipy let ters editors all ever the land will accept thorn und hungrily ask for moro. Are you able to compose a "cutchy" little waltz or song ? Do not fear that music publishers will ovoilook it. If you can do anything' well you caii got well paid for it. A few yours ago n certain young girl was loft a penniless orphan In a town in western Now York. Not knowing where she could go or what she could possibly do to ourn nor living , the asked advlco from an old f riond of her mother's. The lady said : "Now , whut can you do ? The girl burst Into tears and cried : "I never had to do anything , and I can't do uny thing. " "But think n moment , " continued her adviser. "Thoro surely must bo someone ono thing that you can do everybody can do something. " The girl thought for a few minutes , nnd then said the only thing she could do wns to make paper dolls. "All right , " replied the friend , "you make u few just as pretty and nice as you possibly can , nnd I will take them to certain store and sell them for vou. " Tlio plan wns carried out. Tlio first batch of dolls sold nt once , and the store uskcd for moro. Today that girl em ploys six or seven asslstunts , and her paper dolls nro sold all ever the coun try. She not only supports herself , but furnishes employment for others , and is increasing her bank account every month. No matter in what direction your abll ity lies , educate yourself that way , There is no such thing us the overpro duction of real excellencies. The more man has the greater his desire. Strive to excel in some ono things nnd for the absolute necessary foundation , bo sure to attain general education.

Some ladle voluntarily opened u free "Intelligence1 olllco In that city , hoping thus to aid some of the sufferers to find work.

Just , s the sinoko cleared I saw my elephant , , s I thought , in tlio sumo place , and I irod my left barrel ut htm. This tlmo ,11 umnlstakublo sound told mo that ho vns down. Another brief sp.ico of u few nomonts and I saw that there were two lophnnts on the ground before mo. The Irst elephant was perfectly dead ; ho ind sunk quietly down on his knees and , -us resting on till fours , with his trunk vrlly curled under him. Tlio second olophunt had nlso fallen in its knees and Us body was pressed gainst that pf the first elephant. It PUS not quito dead and the trunk was lightly swftying to and fro ; but two bul- ots from the fowllng-pieco put it out of ts agony. Both 01 those elephants are 'ull ' grown. The one killed with the Irst shot wns. an old hull , standing , as .lour ns wo could measure it , eight feet at the bhouldor ; the second was a full- rown cow about seven foot in height. The interval between the two shots was /ory brief , only a/ few seconds of time ; jut in that interval the cow , who must iivvo been close to the hull , had come vnd stood clpso to her fallen mate. lloforo firing I saw ono elephant only , , ho bull , and had no idea that any other ilephant was close by ; but this may bo ixplaincd from the fact that the place vas a thlok , bushy jungle. Both anl- nals were killed with the front shot. Tlio only part of this Incident which nay bo said to bo curious Is that the iccond elephant , the female , should lave stood where she did after the first hot was fired. The case Is not without precedent In , ho ann.ils of elephant shooting in Co\- on. Some thirteen or fourteen years igo , to the best of my recollection , Mr. 3111s of the Ceylon civil service shot hroo different elephants in this way , believing all the time that ho was firing at the bamo elephant.
