In returning from KUndnm tol'ri'lor-a in sou i!i Afrii-a I saw a jivat muii.v striitifre sights amon Katiir triln-s in lh:.s station f the country. In passing a!;.' tlif r.uils you will find at int-r-vaU n savarrc hoad frazin-y at you with CV'-'S of t!.-at!i. An inquiry dovcloiK-d tlit f:iL-ts tl.iit this is their mode of liuryir;f tht ir doad, writes a corre:sixn il. iu of t!ie Atlanta C'onstit-ation. '1 hoir cntoiu is to place the lxxly in a siltinc' 1 (slims covcrir.'r all Init the liead with ea.-'h, ami provi..::nff the corpse with a pan of in.-.-. lie meal (corn meal) and a vessel of v. j.ter, so that the spirit will i-'st, in p.uee aial not haunt the sur vivors. These l.urial places are near a puV.ie road, so th-.jt wh.en the resurrvclion comes they will le ready to jump i:p imnu'diately and follow the anirels al'inu1" the mad without the danger of j'eltin.r left hehirid or lost. The Kaflirs ln !ieve in a future state f existence, not only for the soul, Imt also for the body. This helicf is strangely similar to tiiat of t hri-tiiin tradition. How it j.'ot into the Kafir religion is not known, hut it is one of their must ancient and st in 'rest irailitioiis. When a heal of a f.iii:i!y dies h:s hut with all his KTSinaI l)i'Io::.j ipfrs is ahaudoncd, the idea prevail!:. : tl-.wt t!ie spirit of the dead haunts his formi.T ahodtf. In case of sud len death in the trUie it is often at trilmtcd to the influence of a wileh. and on application to the relatives, which is always made, an investigation is made to tl'iM-ovcr the one who has caused the Midd.-n th'uiise. The 'lunza amatii." or e il ! cttr. is the ju-esidin penius. His modus operanli is to ass-.-mlde all the sMsp'-eted parties around a t!..l ves sel of water, into which they looli. ora :.t a time, their features lK-inj,- fully re lh c-tcd i;; the water. When the jruil'y one's turn comes a ripple is siren to pass over the water. Of course, this ripple is produced hy a trick of the lupa anaiizi. :nI is jreneial'y cnactcl .when one whom lie has a fnnlpe against looks into the water. The unfortutiale individiu.l is tlieu handol ver to the tender mercies .f the infuriated rela tives, v. ho nndce s':r.rl work of putting hiia where I i cr n do no more harm. The spirit of the depart j-d. l:r.uu-iiif that Ids ilea th has been aveiiyed, then rests in JHSH-C. The Kafirs, without exception, use tohacco, which prows here profusely, and of a very fine qnality. Men. women ;:i-d children usesnuiT. which they make irj:n t ' -.! -co mixed with ashes. They e:.rrv their snint lwixes, a lon; cylinder-.'.hap- d tulns in a slit made in the l.!o of the ear. Their p'pvs are curious a trail's. A cow's horn is secured, into which they insert diacromdly a stem, and on this they afli.v a 1hw1 for the t. bacco. The horn is th'-n filled wi'.l. water and smohc. an'1, water drawn iiUo ti.i mtxith. The for:o'. r i i inhaled r .'jectenl thnu'r'i the r.o-..- and tin water spat out. This performance is aeco:n p:'iiied with much coiejua'r ami chatter inff anil sinuiuir the praies of Ihii: .hief, nation, pod ar.d emplo-er; the latter does not always come in for uc tnixed praises. KEEPING HOUSE IN INDIA. None of tho IJinicnU .o Wlilrli Iteset Aiiit-rioan llonsrkprper. The ordinary Anplo-Inilian house keeper knows nothinp of the difficulties, which Ix'.set her American sister. Iter I'ath, compared to th;:t of the latter, and notwithstanding the difficulties of climate which surround lu r, is an cac3 one. In fact, few women who have spent much of their lives in India know a:vthir.p alout house-heepinp as Amer icans understand it. There, at lea.st, no lack of lici'.; native servants swarir. all over the country, as each hranch r f work necessitates a si-ecial one, every household l as a lar.re stalT of its own. says Good Ilou.se Ueepinp. As a rules the native:; have a lofty disregard of truth, and sometimes liad it difficult to distil: .tiisli between mine and thine, but in other respects tiiey make capa ble and tdi'ipiu scrvaMs, and the but Icr r head servant be'iup responsible for all those under l.im, the mistress has comparatively l.f tie to d i with them. None of them receive larpe wapes. a ti'.ere pittanee, accoi-.Iinp to our i. leas; and as they would lose" caste were the' to eat of food prepared for white peo ple, they always hoard themselves in their own ij'iarters. which are at a re spectful distance from their master's., and altopether distinct. The cot ! in an Anplo-Iudian estab lishment is a pcr.-oti of co'isi.Jera'de im portance, thouph he receives but a feu rupees a month for his services, and can ! trusted to send up a well c Hiked nnd appeti.'.inp meal, without any inter ference whatever on the part of his ads tress, lie' is not only up in culinary lore himself, hut he can follow out. often with certain improvements of his own, any recipe pawn lam, no mattet how complicated; indeed, he is verr proud to learn aa entirely new one, and once learned will puard it as his own. jealously, bein;r most ttiiw illinj to im part his knowh-dpe to others, lie is slow, however, to adopt new-fashioned cookinp uteusils. If the mistress pre sents him w'ith anythinp in that line, he will accept it with apparent pratitiea tion, but will put it tjiiietly aside and make no furttier use of it. and when remonstrated with ou the subject will say: "It was not the custom of my father." For the sake of her appetite, however, the mistress is seldom desir ous of poiii'j near the kitchen, and cer tain!, here it is conccrncil,-the less she knows of what pox-s oa there, the bctte-. Otilnt Soldii-r Living. Flnssia claims to issess the oldest soldier in the wurhl in Col. Oritzenko, of I'ottawa, near Odess;i, who on Feb ruary 7 celebrated his one hundred and seventeenth birthday. Ihiteriap the service in 1711, over one hundred years apo, lie received from the hands of the Kmpress Catherine, after the takinpof Ismail, where he was servinp ruder Souwarotr, the pohl medal.

RED TAPE IN ITALY. soiue ot the CuriouKty Atmnrtl 1 are to M hu ll It ! ..i'liel. Hon. Alexander Hood, who manapes Lord I'.ridport's duchy of 1 Iron le estate in Sicily, contributes much interesting1 information in the last liritish consular report on that island concerning the curious effects of red tape in Italy, saj's the London Times The cultiva tion of the tobacco plant was once a sutliciently important item of Sie-ilian production, but owing to the vexatious interference of the authorities that in dustry lias been kiucd a.s repants ordi nary cultivation. 'Ier.ant farmers suffer much from arbitrary proceed inps of lax collectors. No matter how Lad the season or how much his debt may be to bis landlord a farmer is mulcted in a considerable sum of income tax a tax which is. pre sumably, one on prosperity and profit. I'rotest is as useless a.s redre'ss is rare. The system of allowing a participation in the fines imposed predisposes the lower class of oilicials to injustice and harshness. The re-d tajK-isin of the Ital ian bureaucracy is remarkable; buckets of sea water for a child's bath have bet n objected to by excisemen throuph fear of end.inpering the gove'mmclit's monojMdy of salt- In time of cholera a pun barrel was not allowed admission to Sicily without pa-ssing through the fr.mipating rtH;u, and it is,;;id that a truckhmd of chloride of lime fur tl ism feclmg pu.rpo.se-s had to go through the same purify inp process. The body of a man taken within the precincts of a town for burial was slopped at the entrance gate because it had to be decided whether duty might not Ik- payable on it as meat. A pen tie man ii'.ni his wife were stopped on the frontier to give an ficcount of some luncts iKdonpinp to the lady, because "there was not suilicieut grease tin the articles to denote that they had been worn." The duty had to le paid, and much olhc-ial correspondence aud time will pass before the money is returned. A traveler arrived at a roadside rail way station a few minutes afte r the time advertised for the train to t,tart. If the man v.aus late the train was later ami bad not arrived. A ticket was re fused, on the ground that if the train had lieen punctual the traveler conld not have caught it, and therefore no ticket could W given. He saw the train conic in and po away without him lie cause he' was not allowed to travel with o"t a ticket. DRESS AS AN INDICATOR. I'usliiuiiahle C lolh.-t Suiil to lie fatal to IUe.it.tl Vitality. An editor of unquestionable eminence and authority asserts emphatically that no woman of real literary ability ever dressed well, says the Illustrated Ameri can. The architect of a graceful gown, he says, could never be the anthor of a clever hook, the power to achieve' one niiiiliing the capacity for uccouiplu-u-in r the other. The e'onnoioseur of literature and frocks col: tin lies as follows, citing his own varied experience, that has brought under notice nearly every notable' writer of the day: "The very instant a woman crosses the threshold of mv of fice," lie says, "i can va'rneiy grasp something of her personality, and am always impressed by such trilles as hat s and veils at the first cursory plance. When the visitor is neatly :.hl. smartly . oau-.l. wtiirs becoming hare's. Jn.n-n.-t. gloves, etc..

Prof. Gi.irel brings to remembrance a large nuinln-r of most interesting illuv trillions in support of the LamarVkian view that acquired characters may 1 e: inherited. One of the most telling of his facts i th.tt found in the case of the leaves of the lime and other tree's, which lear cinjous malformations, caused by the attack of mites. These malformations are inherited, even when individual trees are protected from the parasites in question; and, as no ne could maintain either that the tree s originally posse-sse-d the malfor-' illations or that the latter en-cur acci dentally, the only explanation ojien to us is to hold that what was an acciden tal and ac.piircel vaiiation has Ufn duly 'rpetiiatesl. Hlii tiaU'tl News. I i She May Not IV I'retry, i:at She Ha the Kitclet tiinl t.t Heart. The German pirl is the most persist- ontly underrated of all girls. The ! Frenchman ridicules her. the Lnplish- mar. patronises her, and the American j -avoids her. The Russian" courteously ignores her. and even the German is j ready to desert her for her foreign sis- : ter. Among men of all nations there is i almost none to speaK tor ner, ana. as i she is too modest to speak for herself. most persons who know her slightly or not at al, think there is nothing lo say for tier. This is entirely wrong. To le sure, the German pirl has none r f the dazzling attributes of her Lng l":sh, Frciicn, American and Russian sisters. She : not "jolly," nor "chic," nor "smart," nor "brilliant." She is not "ravishing!' beautiful," nor "aw fully entertaining," nor a "terrible flirt," says a writer in the Jenness Millcr Magazine. Rut despite all these short com inps the German pirl has at tractions tif her own anil an abundance of them. She is vroll educated, intelli gent and well bred. In history the German pirl is companionabiy clever. She is not pedantic with her knowl edge: is the autiptnle of a blue stocking. The German pirl can play wr 11 and sing a little, texj. She reads the news-pajH-rs. marvels greatly at the iimimty of the French and reasons out to the satisfaction of her own patriotic little he-art the complete justilication of the triple alliance. All this, and more, too. the German pirl carries aliout in her flaxen little head without turning a J single hair in conceit. Her Iierr l'::i:i j and iierr Lieut, vim Ilei-ifas.s may dis- j cuss over t tie wiioie Le'Id ol her Knowl edge in her presence and she doe'sn't try to show she knows all "Ixuit it. She may have whole mines of informa tion on current topics in her mind, but she doesn't make- strenuous efforts to l.-t any yoiiii-; ir an know this. She is. in short, enoup'i of a German to wish to know, just for the sake of kin.wirg It is just this fullness of t.nreveai"d education aud information that lends indirectly to the German pirl le-r charm in eouversati. .n. Siie l as no fe;.rs of running short of conversational ma terial. She has no apprclieusions that she cannot m:dc-rsti:r..l all a man says to her when he' drift.; e.n harmless y Lcavy and impersonal subjects. Siie is therefore qiute free from all conversa tional r. TVousness. She does not sr. In stitute gusto for intelligence upon sub jects of which she knows iioth:i-g, and she' never raves ab.v.t thin;-s that she knows only by hearsay. Throughout a tete-a-tete she is delieiously serene ami reposeful. Once married, the Germnn piW le foint'S all that has long been popularly included in the hackneyed expression, haus frau. She gives up transcendental romance, though not readinT' and theater going, and, whether princess or p.'usact, fastens t her wai-tbantl a gre-at bunch t.f keys that unlock every cuplrotiT-d anil closet in her house. She sees to it that the pea soup is properly cooked antl that the beer Ls properly stored. The German pirl is not lienutifnl. Ile-r snoulders are too square, her waist tapers too little ami her features are too expansive. On the other hand, she is not plain, for she has a wealth of fine, silky hair, a delicate skin arid a clear, white brow. Her feet and hands though net small, are shaicly, and the atmosphere Li which she moves is per meated with health. Finally, the Ger man girl's heart is big and in just the right place, so that all who have sve-n her as she is can never think of her otherwise than as a sympathetic and true woman, too clever to be frivolous. t'Jo sincere to lie capricious and too earnest to play with real lifes SUED FOR STOLEN TIME. How an Old Proverb I.et to an Innoeent M,i't Conviction, A rather fctriking case has just been brought before a Vicksburg justice' of the iH-ace, says the Arkansaw Traveler. A man named Ruth bone sued one Jack son for time. "Well." said the justice, when the case was called, "you have brought an action lie're for time', bet you do ne.t specify. Hid you give this man Jackson fo much of y. mr time and has he refused te pay you fer it?" "Your honor, this man has had my time and does refuse to pay me. I will explain. I live on the floor just above him. and some time ago loupht a fine clock en the installment plan. The other day the fellow came nround to collect tlie installment, ;.i;d it tx-curred to me that, as Jacks.. n could hear the Hock strike-, he ought to help me pay f.r it. I bK.kett into the matter anel found tbat he had ih clock and I alao learned that his htuirs were regulatel by my timepiece. Then I toid him that he owed me for my time and ex plained to him, but he refused to enter tain my claim." "Mr. Jackson," a:d the judge, "have you no timepiece of your own?"' "I have not, your honor." "And have you been telling the time of day by listening to the striking of Mr. KathlHJne's clock? ' "Well, yes. but I did not think that it was wearing on the clock. I thought that while the chick was f-triking for hlta it could just as well strike for me, especially as one se't of strikes would do for lKth lamilies." 'Rut hatl you intended to pet a clock Iwfore Mr. Ralhbone boupht his?" the justice L.sketL "W.-ll, yes." The justice reflected a moment and then said: "Your delay in buying a clock magi's you the vie'tim of this ac tion, for tlie law plainly says, as every schoollioy ought to know: 'iVocrasti na tion is the thief of time Yon have, therefore, stolen this man's time and will have to pay for it or suffer more serious consequences, I assess the dam- I ages at ten dollars." Horse Sense. The intelligence of tho horse has just Irt-fn demonstrated at Vesper, near Syaeuse, X. Y. Among a herd of Ilambletonian horses in a field was a brood mare and a sucking colt. A few days ago the mother partly pulled one f her shoes off. With a great deal of "horse sense" she jumped out of the pasture and went to the blacksmith shop. The smithy started to drive the animal away, but finally discovered and reset the bent shoe. The mare thr-n went contentedly Lack to the pasture. scaie.i me leneo. nd was once more mingled with theher'l. THE GERMAN GIRL. INDIAN MARRIAGE.'-. The Matrimonial Onestlon Is u Troulilc loniF Otic to the Keil Mi-.e. I once asked th" Pimas how they m aged this qifstioii, Kays a writer Kale Field's Washington, and the n in hi men said it had given them more trouble than anything else, so thM. finally they had dropped the whole business and icl the young pee.ple mate to siot them selves; if they loved one another they remainervl together; if tl.ey diil not, ihc-y swapped and that plan bcciacd lo worit better than any they had tried. I had a case among ti.e l'iiaasonce which required judicial decision anel put all my abinty te ihe test. The wife of the chief came to my headquarters, accompanied by a small army of Amazons, to inquire what the law was among the white people about the everlasting q-n-stion of matrimony. I told her the American law allowed a man to have' only one wife. She ihon said that Antonio had brov.pht another wemun into the house, and wanteel to know what I was going to do atxiut it. Now, interfering between even an In dian man rtnd wife is r.o fun, so the court t'.iok the case under advisement. Finally I asked her if t he ot her woman was ns t.trtnp as she. "No," the replied, "she is a little squaw." I had some Mexi.-an chU-otes horse whips p'aited of rawhide', I pave her one of these anil told her to po home and whip tlie other woman like sixty! The advice worked to a charm and the encounter lietwcen the two women ter minates! the: matrimonial entanglement The great chief of the Mojavcs.

I called up my interpreter, Jese C.i'ez-jii. and asked him: .lose, what is the- ::;p.ttt r with the Indians, that make-s them so sulky".'" "They are angry," he answi-reeh "Tliey think the Americans have killed Ircteba ami that that picture is his ghost." h. no," I replied, ' Irc'.cba is alive and will return. You tell the Indians I will stay here am-mg them til! he comes back." ' ...... When Ircteba returned lit was tlressed in' a ma'or general's uniform, with a dashing sword aud epaulets as big as a saucepan. He came to the agency in a f nrie.as vmssion. "Captain." he exclaiuicik "I want to make a speech." "All right," I re-ponde-d. I knew he had been to Washinr:toTi and caught the contagion. No I fixed a dryg'xrls !hix with a re.nl blanket en it for a im: ti urn, : T:d he barn lined t'.a s.udience lor au hour or two i.i t.ue Indian fjs'.ioii.
