Lehlghtnn, Oct. St, 1874.
An Indian In a Police Court.
From the Detroit Frit Frttt.
An Indian had been picked up drunk,
and though Itwas proposed to let him go
over tho river, it was desirable to have
him understand that no Indlnn has any
more rights than n white man.
"Child of the whispering forest, son
of the grassy plains, It grieves my spirit
to see you here,"sa'd his Honor. "Only
a fow more moons will come and go be
fore you will be gatht-rcd to the happy
hunting grounds of your brothers gone
before. You are an ngd tree. Time
has shorn you of your strength. You
can. no longer chase tho wild conduran
go and follow tho loebuck. The buffa
lo grazes In front of your lodge, and your
arm Is not strong enough to draw the
bow. The rumbling thunder and the
sharp lightning make you ntrnid. Once
you could not count the camp fires of
youi tribe, so many did they number;
now there Is nothing left of your tribe
but yourself two old army blAnkots,nnd
a shotgun with the lock out of repair.
Son of tho forest, why Is this thing
thus, and what do you mein by com
ing into my tramping grounds and get
ting drunk?"
"The white chief has spoken many
very wise words," replied the Indian
In measured tones, resting one foot on
the edge of a spittoon. "My race has
fallen like the leaves been washed
away as water washes out the marks of
chalk. I stand alone. My camp fire
has gone out, and my lodge Is cold anil
has no mat. Kawnee-ke-klck has tears
In his eyes when ho looks to tho West
and no longer sees tho smoke of many
camp Ores. Our great chleftlans have
fallen, our warriors are dust, and the
wolf utters his howl on tbe spot where
stood our big village I am sad."
"The red man may go, "said his Hon
or. "I cannot give you back your dead;
I cannot cover the hills and meadow
with forest again; tho wild fox ani the
deer have sought the deeper glens, and
no power can waken the warriors whose
wIioods ranor from hill In rlvpr. flu
back to your lodgo;beware of fire water;
keep In nights; vote early and often,
and you'll be happy "
Some Modern Sayings.
'Honesty Is the best policy, unless
you can get at about $50,000, and effect
a settlement at fifty per cent.
Honor thy father and thy mother,
particularly about circus time, when
you don't know whero to raise fifty
cents.
Never run Into debt when you can
avoid It. It Is so much betti r to go
stubbing around In a broadcloth coat
than to be In debt for a suit of Scotch
mixed.
Let your motto be"Llberty or death,"
and if it comes to the pinch take the
mo-t of It In liberty.
Remember the poor. If you know of
a family who are out of provisions and
fuel, keep them In your thoughts until
you meet Smith or Brown, and then tell
them they had better make a donation.
If they hold off, tell them that "He who
giveth to the poor lendeth to the Lord."
It It very easy to remember tho poor. I
can remember cases twenty years ago.
Respect old age. If you have a mai
den aunt forty years old, and she Is
passing herself off for a girl of twenty
threo, there Is no call for you to expose
her. The more you respect her age aud
keep still about It, the more she will
respect you.
Never marry for wealth, but remem
ber that It Is Just as easy to love a girl
who has a brick liouso with a mansard
roof and silver-plated door-bell as one
who hasn't anything but an auburn
head and an amiable disposition.
Love thy neighbor as thyself. Borrow
his plow, hoe, or horses wheuever you
can, but II he wants to borrow yours
tell him that you are very sorry, but
you were Just going to use them your
self. Be guarded In your conversation.
There are times when you may freely
express your opinion of a political can
didate, but you had better wait uutll
his friends tire over In the next county
visiting.
Remember that appearances are often
deceiving. Many a pale, thin young
lady will eat more corned beef than a
carpenter, JJecatifo you find her play.
Ing the piano in the parlor, It Is no feign
that her mother Is not at the corner gro
cery running in deDt for a peck of po
tatoes. Restrain your temper, particularly
U a pollceinau Is In sight. Fits of auger
hasten death. If a ruau should call you
a horse-thlof and you should get high
ly Indignant, It would cut your llf
short by several days; and If It was In
Texas, and there was a vigilance, com
mitteo handy, It might cut It short alto-gcthcr.
Gentlemen' Fashions.
Justice shall bo done to the gentle
men. Yes, it shall. That Is, with your
kind permission. You devote much
space to tho fashlors of tho fair sex,
and none to those of the lords of crea
tion. So I'm resolved to give you tho
very latest autumn fashions for gentle
men. Here goes.
The newest thing In hats Is scarlet
opera ilannel high soft hats, for tender
brains, with bright yellow ostrich plutna
standing erect In front.
Tho Batiste dress coat, trimmed with
Henri Trols tudue folds and plush re
verse with tight-fitting coat sleeves aud
plush buttons is very sweet.
Grenadine vests aredouble-brested,
and button up as usual. Trimmed with
natrow plaiting of velveteen.
Pants are made long, with gored fronts
fitting smoothly over the foot, with
pockets buttoued closely up.
Striped stockings lajed up on one
slJe, and fastened with chenille tassels
at the top.
Pattent leather boots are as mual,
with tho addition of a blue satin rosetto
on the Instep, trimmed with narrow
Valenciennu-i edgings.
Shlits nre goied en train, trimmed with
narrow rullle edged with pique. The
bosoms are hemstitched on the bias,
with gilt braid and gilt plaiting.
Ties are scarf slupe, fringed to the
depth of a quarter of a yard, and ar
ranged to hang down the back and
fasten by soutascho braid.
Suspenders are of blue satin, chain
stitched, with plush silk.
Handkerchiefs are of honeycomb can

it going till next spring, aud the times
