Many of the readers ot the D*7y 1V /> -
graph would like, perhaps, to know
sotne details of this banner, and of its
wonderful influence upon the mind of
those who believe in Mohammed and lus
•Koran.' It rmght interest them, there
fore, if 1 give hero some obsrnatieus ou
the Mtltjeok
The banner of the Caliphate, to which
the sultan alludes h, his spevh, is that
which the Turks call "the Heaveuh Stmi.l
*rd,' and, in their lauguagc, 'Rairaek.' Its
color is green, and they believe it t >
have IKHUI the banner of the l'rophet
Mohammed, delivered to lout by tie
Rngel Gabriel, through the Uiediitni of
Ayesha, as iut indubitable token of vic
tory over their enemies. This standard
was formerly laid up in the treasury i t
the saltan of Constant m pie, hut t is
no* kept in the mosque at Ktwli, where
the new sultans on the day of their *• *rn.
tion gin! on the saber of the Caliphate,
111 ease of any serious struggle, a re
ligions duty compel* the eultau to give
orders to the " Mni'as,' r Molianuutshui
clergy, to displav the prophet's standarvl
before the people and army, ami pro
claim " Al-Johad,' or t ' ;i> holy war, by
exhorting the Moslems In- faithful to
their religion and defend their kingvhuu.
•This is the prophet's lianuer, the
aheikh-al-islam x-xchum* ; ' this is the
standard of the Caliphate; it is set up
before you aud displayed over your
heads, oh, true believ - rs, to announce
to you that yoiu re'.igii . is threatemsl,
your Caliphate in danger, ami your life,
wives, children and property e\is>s,-d to
IH> the prey of your cniel enemies! Any
Moslem, therefore, who refuses to take
his arms and follow tins holy Bairack is
an infidel, and must, therefore, suffer
condemnation. * Such an expedient h.is
always produced wonderful effects among
tin use who profess the Mohatiuaedau re
ligion. All good Moslems are *\m
sidertd as being divorced freiu their
wives, ip*a fact >, if they refuse to make
haste. Use up their arms, follow the
banner of the Caliphate, ami fight
against the enemy of their religion and
kingdom. It is eontirand by trust
worthy historians that the standard
of the Caliphate has been always kept
with extraordinary care ami reverence—
that even the Jamasan.es, who w< re ften
disrespectful to the sultans, trembled at
the sight of this holy ensign. Only one
instance of diareepeet to the heavenly
standard is related in the Turkish annals.
This happened in 1658, when Hassan
Paslia. a! the heal of a seditious faction,
wage,l warwuh his legitimate sovereign.
The sultan gave orders, as usual, to dis
play the banner of the Caliphate, with a
view to induce Hassan Pasha and his
liartioe to obey and respect the head of
islam. Hassan Pasha sevms to have
been of little faith, inasmuch as when he
saw the sacred banner displayed he
turned his back to it and t<the exhorttr -r
Mullfts. and gave oniers to his • .1 rs
to fight fiercely and carry on the v * to
the end.
Extreme* in the Black Hill*.
An incident occurred 01 route and be
tween stations Government Farm (an old
sub-post of Fort Laramie) and Hot Creek,
that amusingly illustrates the opposite
extremes of Black Hills character, says a
correspondent. Two jparties going in
opposite directions had met. The one
was returning frvini the gold regions
ilriviug a pack mule before him. Upon
this animal were his provisions, clothes,
bedding, etc., covered by a canvas wagon
cover tiiat had borne the facetious, but
since the Pike's Peak excitement stale
dev.ee of Black Hills or Butt ' The
" Black Hills or" had evidently been
obscured by charcoal marks and an
additional number of interjections been
added to the last word, making it a very
conspicuous ** Bust." His tale was soon
tokl; he had been unsuccessful, left his
wagon and escaped with tw<. of lies mules.
He was, however, of a very sanguine
temper&meifi, and was only going to
Rawhide Butte, he said, to and ac
company some friends to the Big Horn.
The other party was going to the Hills,
and, strange as it may seem, was pnh
ing a wheelbarrow before him, loaded
with his bedding and provisions. He
was sixty-two years old. he said, and had
left "the old woman" in t'hev .ae.
George Stewart by name, an Irishman
and distantly related to the late Alex
ander T. Stewart of New Y* >rk, In* had
come to America in IH3O. For five years
he had been in Cheyenne, hut work was
hard, wanes low, and money scarce. He
was going to the Blaok HilLs t make a
" striae,' and, failing in that, to follow
his trade—baking. He had been offered
a free ;.assure to Deadwood, but was
determined to push his " buggy " (as he
familiarly called the wheelbarrow;
through. He had left Cheyenne the
preceding Thursday at noon, and on the
Tuesday following, without any assist
ance, was nearly at Hat Creek, 160 miles
distant!
A Ixist Flag Restored.
A recent discovery at Strasburg recalls
an incident of the liable of FrosehwOlex
at the outbreak of the Franco-German
war. The colflrs of the Eighth Regiment
of French Cuirassiers, which was sup
posed to have been lost U[x>n the fiei.l *>f
battle, liave been recovereil. A non
commissioned officer of the regiment,
finding that the battle was lost, tore the
colors from the pole aud folded them
around his chest. No sooner had he done
this than he was mortally wounded by a
Bhell; but he had time, when carried to
an ambulance, to confine the colors to
another soldier, who promised to restore
them to the regiment. Tho latter failed
to fulfill his promise, and not under
standing the value of the colors, he *<>l*l
the red ami blue strips of the flag at
Strasburg, having in the meanwhile torn
off the white strip to make him-edf a
neck tie. It liapjiened that nn inhabi
tant of Strasburg, who is in the hubit of
purchasing curiosities, heard of tin
matter, ami lie at once obtain-*! posses
sion of the two strips sold, which he has
rejoined, and upon which are embroider
ed in gold letters, " The Emperor Najse
leon 111, to the Eighth Regiment of
Cuirassiers," and upon the reverse side,
" Eekmuhl—Wagrain—La Moakowu—
Hanau !" The collector, wheu he ascer
tained to whom the colors belonged, lost
no time in forwarding them to the colonel
of the regiment which had lost them.
New York's Tiade in Alligator Skins.
New York handles about five thousand
alligator skins per annum. Tlio business
is entirely in the hands of a single firm,
who employ men to pursue the reptile
in the bayous of the Misrissippi river,
and the work is usually done at night
by the aid of lanterns, tho rifles used
being aimed straight at the creature's
eyes. If the alligators are too old or
too young, the ammunition used on
thenxis only thrown away, 1 or in such
cases the skin is either too horny or too
small. A good size is eight or nine feet,
counting nothing beyond the thick
part of the tail. Florida is a great
place for alligators, but skins from that
direction are bad'y mangled, indicating
strong objections by the animal against
parting with his natural integument.
The market price for finished skins in
New York is thirty-six to forty-eight
dollars per dozen; extra, something
higher ; raw, according to condition.
FEMALE EDI-CATION.—Keep as much
as possible in the grand and common
road of life ; patent educations or habits
seldom succeed. Depend upon it, men
set more value on the cultivated minds
than on the accomplishments of women,
which they are rarely able to appreciate.
It is a couxmon error, but it is an error,
that literature unfits women for the every
day business of life. It is not so with
men. You see those of the most culti
vated minds constantly devoting their
time and attention to the most homely
objects. Literature gives women a real
aud proper weight in society, but they
must use it with discretion.

is of fan complexion, has brown hair and

eve is quick and searching; and. without
intending am rotleetion upon the cour
age of the king of the forest, it max
truthfully be said that Frank 1". Lawson
is hravei than a lion. Within the past
ton years, nearlv all the showmen ami
alnto:.! . very lion in America have Wen
introduced to Roxson. Owing to tin*
fact that tin* ha* boon a bad *< ,v-ou t.-r
oircitsi * and menu.-erics, and more
Ospivtnllv to the fact that at the present
day showmen are not able or willing t.
nay h n oxhibitor.- adequate wag* s,
l. iwson was not in a den of ben* on the
emdag that a N.-w Aot'.. .x- i uportm
x-sited hint. He gave the n-portct so.e,.
interesting information in r g.uxl t • lus
dangerous calling.
Law sen first made the nequaintanee of
the lion by scraping the den*. This w •

performing hoi s ami tigx r* had IK OU put
together in mix American menagerie.
Laws, u had la-en in the den* before,
but, when he undertook to run this
quartet, he xva* almost ilishoarteued.
F. r nearly three xxet-ks he fought them
.i*ily, and xxa* scratohexl ami t >ru nut I
he sc.irxs lx recognized himself iu the

L;w-in remaiuexl four rears with
P. rejuin.gh a.* the superintendent of th
a.silogical department f the slew. In
the xxniter* h>- was emploxxxl in ••break

sou, •• 1 u>cd to go into the den every
morning with a brvxuu and sweep the
tl.K>r. Then the vonugsterw eronehe.l in
a corner, and I brushed them with the
broom. This tin v did not like at first,
but they graduu.'.y lecaiuc t u*x\l to s< <-•
ing tat. and skipja-d around me like kit
ten*. 1 taught them their places in the
dens so that there might be no misunder
standing Wtweeu us. Each had Ins owu
place, but one of theut was bos* over the
otliera. This one became mv special p. t
..mi assistant. Siiuiet lines, nowever, he
re-bellevl against my authority, but 1 al
wuvs brought liim to terms. If he or
others I H value warlike, i clipped the
claws of their fore pans to the quick,
and this took the fight out of theiu at
once. To trim the claw* was no easy
job. I was cvunpelled to catch the fore
legs in a slij*-mK>s*> ami throw the ani
mal down ; "hen, while he was held
down by the men outside the cell, I did
the clipping. 1 never elipjied a lion a
stvoud time. It makes them timid, and
destroys their liou nature.
"CoL Thomas l>avi* xx.-us out alnu *t
to death in a den in French's circus in
Chicago, and 1 was calhxl in to break
the animals. I found it uecossary to cut
she claws. If the lion i* six or seven
year*, old and has never been handled,
he must be ehtifnwed with a traiu*l
lion, the {* ?of the den. Then there is
sure to IK- an awful tight. They will
claw- ami bite each other for two weeks
or more. If the pet is the victor, that
settles it. I can easily master the van
quished one. But, if tlie jvt is debuted,
then the conqueror must be dragged
down and burned on the paws witli hot
irons. The lion's roars a? such times
can be heard tliree blocks off. 1 -t..nd
in the ileu with a loaded rawhide and
pound him on the f >rohead and on the
uose. It wouldn't do for me t> hit him
ou the -ide or back. I have four a-- *-
tants iu attendance outside- the den with
iron bars to protect uu-, but I do all the
talking—ill fact, 1 yell at the top of my
voice. I constantly repeat the same
words which 1 am to use in exhibiting
the lion. Anybody can beat a lion w hen
he is tied down ; the dangerous thing is
to enter the deu and beat him whi-n Iw
is not thai. Oil s'.ieh oeea.*.on* 1 In at
the animal fast swuit on th* fo-. -
head and nose with the loadrel whip.
Lions have stood before me like statues
while I pounded th-m thus. I, of e lurse,
keep up a fur •u* yelling. But th- re :.-
danger if overdoing it, and theu jour
risk is great.
"Much has been saidalwnt tmisfixing
or terrifying a lion by looking into h;*
eye.*. 1 know all about that. Catch his
eye and fix yours nj>on him, his eyebalh
slowly lsjgin to expand and he l*ecom s
blind. Then he will turn his head so
that he may recover his vision. I>*k
out for yourself at such a time. When
he face* agoimd again la- ready to strike.
A person outside the den m.\v stare into
the animal's eyes as long a* tie choots-s,
but an experienced liou will quickly torn
away when the kixfx'r in the dm nt
tempts the nse of hi* eyes. I never had
the slighb-st fear when I entensl a deu
imd in tiiat lie* my success. When t
was cut here (p"intiug to a long mark
just over hi* no-e) the bh*M tilled n.v
eyes ami blinded me, but I kept on yell
ing-and using mv whip, and that saved
me. If I hud *itowed a sign of weakness,
I might have bm.ti torn to pieces—prob
ably would have been.
" Last vear, on Decoration day, while
1 wa- with Howe's fc Cushiog's circus, I
went with n den of lions in the proces
sion in New York. Old Parker, the
famous animal who died in Central Park
sometime ago, and who left a record of
four men killed, waa in the den. There
was a great crowd iu the street, and as
we xvere turning the comer of Sixteenth
street and Fourth avenue some boys
stirred up the lioneascs, and they began
to figh*. I tr;-d to stop them, and ns- 1
the whip vigorously. Canada, an im
mense lion tvlio waa beliind me, sprang
upon my back ami fastened his teeth in
my waist. Then he suddenly let go his
hold and crouched in his corner. I was
bleeding and vexed, and I ordered the
driver to get out of the procession and
go baek to tie! show. On the way I
continually tlireatened Canada, but did
nothing until we were in the tent. Aft'-r
my wounds liad le* n dressed I returned
to tL - den, and hud Canada tied down.
The! his claws were cut. He raved and
tossed furiously, and we gave him a
pied' of pine bark to chew. H- snapped
it into splinters. When he was untied
two men at each end of the <len jxiunded
liim with iron bars, and I bent him on
the head with my loaded whip. He
stood like a monument, I put him
through his regular performance aft. r
wurd, and he did it w-U.
"In breaking an animal there is al
ways danger that he may pass yon and
cut off your retreat. That's why I need
assistance from the outside—some one
to hit the lion on the back. When lie is
thus struck he will quickly turn, and
thenyonr opportunity to escape has ar
rived. Old Parker waa the best per
forming lion iu th" country. I used to
put my bend in bin month in three dif
ferent way, and even the show people
couldn't tell h'ov I sucr-eeded in escaping
unhurt. That was my secret, (laugh
ing). For irir.tauce, when he was on his
back I xvonld kneel on his stomach, and
forcing open his month, insert my hen 1.
I held him so that if he made the slight
est show at biting me, lie bit himself
first. I pulled the flesh from hi* jaws
right over h.s teeth and held him with a
firm grip.
" lu feeding lions at the exhibitions I
never give tliem enough to let them
waste time iu chewing, if I did it would
lie fatal to me. I throw them little
scraps, and as soon as they masticate
these I stand ready with my whip and
whack them over the nose. The lioness
Nellie, owing to sickness, coulil not eat
; meat, and I performed what seemed to
Ibe a very wonderful trick with her. I'd
' take a great chunk of meat and hold it
before her. She'd grasp it out of spite,
an 1 then we would have a seemingly
frantic struggle for its possession. \Vhou
I became the winner the applause was
i always heaity and pr rlongou. The otlu >
lions watched the tussle xxith deep inter
est, Slid craved the meat, but 1 kept
1 them at buy. We always fmsl them law
lus!. Liver acts upon theiu just as pills
do u|*<>n human being*.
" in making an exit from a den I in
variably go from the door in the eentei
partition. The worst < f the animals
are first shut in the end partition, and t
part from pet in the second section.
liMUe es are a hundred percent more
treacherous than lions, 'lite majority of
tln* lion tamers who have been killed ill

1 The expectation of future happiness is
1 the best relief of anxious thou-rht*, the
■ most perfect cure of melancholy, the
* guide of life, am! tin* comfort of death.
Be alow in choosing a friend, ami slow
er to change him ; courteous to all ; ulti
mate with few ; slight no one on account
of jsivertv, nor esteem any for their
wealth.
Always win f*xils first. They talk
much; ami what they have once uttered
they will stick to ; whereas there is
always time, up to the last moment, to
bring before a xv i*<- man arguments which
may entirely change hi* opinion,
f Men have b*-*-n somewhat cviii-
H c.-illv defined as a contrivance of wise
men to keep fools at a distance. Fash
ion is shrewd to detect those who do not
j belong to her train, and seldom wastes
,i her attentions. Society, is ve v swift in
j its instincts, and if you do not belong to
, it, resists ami sneers at yon, or quietly
e drops you.
1 Great talents, such as honor, virtue,
s learning, and parts, are above the gen
t era'iitv of the world, who neither pos-
O KCSH them themselves, nor judge of
il them rightly in others ; but all people
t are judges of the lesser talents, such as
', ' civility, affability, aud an obliging,
y agreeable address ami manner, because
u tl.ev feel tbo good effects of tliem, as
s making society easy and pleasing.—

Our Other Selves,
The influence of constant companion
aliip over character is immeitse. If *•
have a dear friend, that friend unavoida
bly exoroiaee a certain poxvor over our
thoughts and actions. Y* t th*r* is an
intimacy mar** olos**, constant atnl )s*w
*rful in its effects than of an acquaint
ance or friend, how* ver near or dear.
We are all conscious at times of a sort of
dual ourselves, we prove *>r condemn
ourselves, xve understand r misbike onr
. selves. The very words, Hclf-ncquiiiut
, anco, s*-lf-lov*, K**lf-rep**<*t, self-defense,
, aelf-control, all take for grant *1 thn
quality. Who and what then is this boon
companion, this familiar friend, who is
conversant xvith every secret of our
souls, whom we can never deceive, and
from whom xve can never escape ? Tin*
influence of nil other associates, however
great, sinks into insignificance before
■ the all-prevailing sway of what may In
' described as self hood what many term
1 conscience.
Is Corn lirt'Hii I n wholesome
It is the general impression ill Italy
that bread made from Indian corn is nn
' wholesome, frequently producing spo
radic diseases, which often terminate
fatally. The facts appear to be xvell
' estaldished, and the result to de)>end
1 upon a condition of mbhliuess which is
' very apt to supervene in consequence of
' the method of preparing the bread n
that Quite recently some
, chemists have suoceeiU'd in separating
- from moldy Indian meal an alkaloid NIIII
- stance, which is white, easy alterable,
f non-crystalline, insoluble in water, solu
i bio in alcohol and ether, which acts
i | poisonouslj on man and nniuuds. It is
, especially noteworthy that the sulphuric
i I acid solution, when oxidizing agents arc
i > added, lias a blue color, rtrikingly
