Time was when wo should never

And, whnt is more, wo arc not mere

Indians' Deadly I'oe.
"Tho full blooded Indians of the
United States uro scarcely holding
their own In point of Increase of
population," remarked Cupt. Downs,
special Indian agent of the United
States Government.
"In some of the. tribes there Is a
silpht Increase, but It Is among tho
mixed breeds nnd not among those of
pure aboriginal stock. Tho deadly
Toe of tho red man continues now,
as for many years past, to bo tubor
eulosls. "Just why this disease should
seem to commit greater ravages
among the Indlnns Is difficult to un
derstand. At first the theory was
that It was due to their changed
mode of existence; that the transi
tion from a savage to civilized Ufo
made them peculiarly susceptible. I.
am inclined to think that there Is but
little basis for this view, especially
as the number of victims claimed by
consumption shows no sign of dimin
ution, although many years have
elapsed since the Indian forsook the
primitive ways of living.
"A more reasonable explanation is
found In the present habits of the
people. In building their teepees or
log houses they make very scant al
lowance for ventilation, and sleep in
quarters from which fresh ulr Is
largely excluded, llesldes, a dozen
or moro individuals will occupy a
room that ought not at the most to
contain more than two. Another bad
practice of which It is difflcult to
break them Is that of the common
plpo. A group of Indians will take
turns in smoking the same pipe, and

Luke Turns Ret!.
One of the natural curiosities of
Switzerland is Lake Morat, which
turns blood red every tenth year.
For centuries this freak was re
garded by tho Swiss with supersti
tious dread, and not until scientists
turned their attention to the matter
Was the belief in the supernatural
partly removod. Even now some of
the more Ignorant persist In regard
ing the omen as one of evil Import.
The reddish color Is given the wa
ter by . a minute plant closely re
lated to the red suow.
Every tenth year this plant boglns
to propagate, and so quickly does it
grow that In a short time the whole
lake Is a crimson tide. The plant is
o minute as not to be perceptible
without the aid of a microscope, and
there was some foundation for the
early belief that the lake had turned
Into a sea of blood.
Business of an Empire.
An Idea of the cost of running a
treat nation may be gained from the
statement that England's balance
heet for the last fiscal year shows
n expenditure of considerably more
than three-quarters of a billion dol
lars. The exact amount was 151,
169,000. To meet this revenues
were raised amounting to 153,707,-
00, leaving a surplus on hand of
1, 938, 000. Of this vast expenditure
266,200,000 went to the army and
navy, 924,000 for dispensing Jus
tice, and 15,161,000 was spent on
education. There is one entry lin
ger expenditure which reveals the
magnitude of the empire's business.
It is that for "stationery and print
ing," and shows that three-quarters
of a million pounds was expended on
this item alona during the past year.

Edict Against the Almighty.
The conviction has long prevailed
that boldness nnd resolution are In
nate In the Anglo-Saxon races, but a
recent example of unheard of cour
age Is offered by the mayor of one of
the cities of Spain, who has openly
challenged no less thnn the Almighty
by publicly denouncing His behavior
toward tho mayor's province In the
following Interesting decree, trans
lated from a Spanish Journal:
"Tho mayor of the department of
Carthanas, to the Inhabitants there
of, know ye:
"Whereas the Almighty has not
behaved himself properly with re
gard to this province and city, Inas
much as only ono rainstorm visited
the country during the lust year, and
not a single time has it rained dur
ing this winter, In spite of prayers
and processions, In detriment to the
chestnut crops, on which the pros
perity and progress of our province
depends;
"Now, therefore, bo It resolved:
"Art. 1. If within tho peremptory
term of a week, from the date of this
decree, it should fall to rain abun
dantly, no one shall attend mass nor
say prayers of any kind.
'Art. II. Should tho drought con
tinue for a term of eight days long
er, all churches and chapels shall bo
burned and all objects of devotion
and prayer destrojed.
Art. III. Finally, If within a third
term of a week, it should fail to rain
abundantly, all clergymen, monks
and friars shall bo massnered and be
headed. "And permission Is hereby grant
ed to all to commit all sorts and spe
cies of sin, that the Supremo Being
may know and understand with
whom he Is dealing." Mexican Hor

THE LAWS IN 80UTH AFRICA.
Boers Opposed to Black Man Being
Represented.
The difficulties presented to the leg
islator in South Africa are greater
than those in nny other British colony
or group of colonies. Foremost among
them is tho political position of the
black races. Two years ago an inter
colonial conference met at llloenifun
teln, which resolved that a commission
be appointed to gather Information ami
liuiko recommendations "with tho ob
ject of arriving at a common under
standing on questions of native pol
icy." Six months later a commission
was chosen consisting of eleven mem
bers, representing all tho South Afri
can colonies. After an Investigation
lasting many months, during which
the commissioners travelled all over
South Africa, they prepared a report
which has been published by the Colo
nial Ofllce. The first matter dealt with
by the commission was the definition
of thn word "native." It was decided
that the world should mean an abo
riginal inhabitant of Africa south of
tho equator; a lialf-cnste, that Is, the.
offspring of a white and an aboriginal
pnrent, nnd the offspring of a half
castes and an aboriginal. According
to this ilellnlllon, the child of a half
caste and a European Is not regarded
us a "native."
A far more ditllcult question was
next considered. Unit of the represen
tation of natives in the colonial parlia
ments and In the future federal parlia
ment. In the Capo Colony all who have
the requisite tpialillcaiion, European or
native, possess the franchise. As a
consequence, the nuniuer of native vot
ers Is Increasing every year and threat
ens la time to outnumber the wihto
vote. The commission, while deeming
it necessary that the natives should
have some form of representation, re
jected, unhesitatingly, the proposition
that "full and equal political it-'.hts
should be granted to all classes of men
fulfilling the necessary franchise quali
fications." It was resolved to recom
in ,ui the adoption of the New Zealand
plan for tho representation of the
Maoristhat is, that the natives should
elect a certain number of members,
"not more than Sufficient to provide an
Adequate means for the expression of
native views and the ventilation of
their grievances, if any; the number of
members not to bo regulated by the
numerical strength of the native vote,
and no nntlve to vote at the election of
any candidate or member who Is to
represent Europeans."
The adoption of such a scheme would
Involve the curtailment of native rights
in the Cape Colony and Rhodesia
(where tne Cape Colony system pre
vails) and the granting of the limited
franchise to the natives in Natal, the
Transval and, the Orr.nge Hiver Col
ony, where they have hitherto had no
vote.
The Boers, who are about half the
population, are bitterly opposed to any
sort of representation of black or col
ored men.
The Shah's Strange Fear.
There was an. element of humor In
the Interview which took place in Paris
between the Shah of Persia and M.
Curie, the French scientist. His majes
ty had expressed his desire to see the
wonders of radium, so a telegram was
sent to M. Curie asking him to present
himself at the Elyseo Palace Hotel,
says tho Uuiilun Chronicle.
"Your name and your great discov
ery ure known to us in Persia," said
the Shah, after the manner of an "Ara
bian Night" potentate audresstng a
magician. "I wish to see this famous
radium, which is described as having
the most marvellous powers."
"Sire," replied M. Curie, "I ran sat
isfy your curiosity, but not here, for
the light is too strong. In order that
you may properly see the brilliance of
radium I must show it in a room which
is dark entirely dark."
The Shah, whose nervousness is very
well known, did not take kindly to the
Idea of a dark room, and called his
grand vizier, who suggested drawing
the curtains of the room, but M. Curie
persisted that blackness was necessary.
Thereupon the Shah called M. Paoll,
the French detective protector of roy
alties, who assured his majesty that
there was no danger. So the party de
scended to the underground apartment
In the hotel known as the safe room.
M. Curie began expounding the prop
erties of radium, and then gave a sig
nal for the electric light to be switched
off. Immediately a panic seized the
Shah's suite and all cried out In Per
sian and in French, "Light! Light!
Turn on the light!" The electricity was
switched on again, and the disappoint
ed savant was forced to show his ra
dium In a lighted room.

Savnges Not Only Ones with Fastidi

In America horse flesh Is sold sur
reptitiously, masquerading as beef. In
i the markets of most European cities
I horse and mule lloah Is sold openly, iu
som ! cases, however, being under the
surveillance of tho police. "The Greeks
ate donkeys," they say, "and if donk
eys were edible, why not horses to
day?" A strong prejudice was manifested
1 agnlnst eating horse flesh when Its use
. was lirst proposed, but tills feeling Is
rapidly vanishing, and hlppophay Is
as common as beef eating. The worn
out steed finds his way to I lie abattoir
as readily as the cow that will not give

are far more unsightly than that crea

declares the steam from the roasting
reptiles is by no means unsavory.

Curious Historical Wagers.
In the year 17S7 a farmer laid a
wager that he would eat two dozen
penny mutton pies and drink a gallon
of ale iu half an hour, a feat which he
easily performed well within the speci
fied limit, says the Queen. In about
half an hour afterward he devoured a
three-penny loaf and a pound of cheese
and then attacked a leg of pork.
A few years later, when the prince
regent was enlivening Brighton with
his vagaries, the noiorlus Sir John
Lade made his celebrated wager that
he would carry Ixird Cholmondeley on
his back twice around the Steine. As
Sir John was short and his opponent
tall, much curiosity was aroused, and
many spectators, including ladies, came
out to see, but were all balked of the
spectacle by the knight declining to
bear the nobleman except in the mini
mum of clothing, declaring that there
, was nothing in tiie conditions calling
upon him to carry extra weight.
Of quite another kind was the wag
ering by a gentleman that he would
stand all day upon London Bridge with
a trayful of new sovereigns, but be
unable to sell them at a penny apiece,
and, like Sir John 1-ade, he won his
wager.
lu ISOfi a curious wager was laid be
tween two gentlemen as to who should
assume the most singular character at
a fancy dress ball. The winner parad
ed with his coat and waistcoat deco
raetd with banknotes of different val
ues, a row of five-guinea notes and a
netted nurse of gold adorned his hat,
while on his hat appeared a piece of
paper with the words, "John Bull."
The IoBer would certainly appear to
have been more original still, for he
appeareu dressed like a woman on one
side, one-half of his face being painted
and the other half blackened to resem
ble that of a negro. On one leg he wore
a silk stocking and a slipper and on
the other half a pair of linen breeches,
a boot and spur, while he was also
adorned with half a long-tailed linen
coat.
Money in Waste Hardwood.
All the world's woodcutters might be
millionaires if they knew how to gath
er up the twelve baskets of Industrial
crumbs as does a distilling plant in a
Michigan town. This establishment has
a capacity of ninety cords of hardwood
a day, the wood consumed being slabs,
crooked logs, treetops and other hard
wood offal from logging and lumbering
operations.
From one cord of this material there
is made ten gallons of wood alcohol,
98 Vi ppr cent being pure; 200 pounds
of acetate of lime, quicklime being add
1 ed for this purpose, and 50 bushels of
' charcoal. Every product of the wood
except the charcoal passes off In the
form of gas and Is reduced by distilla
tion. Some Irreducible gas and a little
tar product are used as fuel. Nothing
Is lost.
I The alcohol Is worth CO cents a gal
lon. The acetate of lime Is worth 2
rents a pound and the charcoal Is
worth 10 cents a bushel. The value of
the lime used Is worth not over one
fourth of the value of the acetate. The
value of the final product of the cord
of refuse wood Is, therefore, not far
from $14. The process is not expen
sive. The plant, running at full ca
pacity, will turn out a product dally
worth $1,200 from material that has
but little commercial value in Its crude
form. Chicago Tribune.

said to be marvellous.

This Year's Production of Cnrn Breaks All
Previous Records.
The corn crop of 1905, according
to the American Agriculturist of
November 1 8 t h, approximates
2,700,000,000 bushels, making the
largest ever produced, and 130,000,-
000 bushels greater than last year's
splended total. The notable thing
in r.cent weeks was the splendid
weather throughout a large part of
tne com belt, and the absence ot
killing frosts until a late date.
Eore or less corn in shock in Mis
souri and Kansat was badly damag
ed by excessive rains, these causing
mold and decay. Correspondents'
report an excellent rate of field in
Illinois, Iowa, Ohio, Indiana and
Nebraska, 31 to 38 bushels to the
acre. New York is credited with
3oJi bushels and Pennsylvania 35
bushels. The rate of yield for the
United States is placed at 28-7
bushels, or one bushel greater than
the preceding season.
A physician long in the field of
practice says that you can keep a

dows closed. The wind from any
other direction of the comoass will
cause the cellar to remain damp.
