HSWe of the st-hance" things en countered IN HIS TRADE. Slay Htm with Um Fella Children Mn Cum Vaster the) String Finding Utt Poeketbeok Res-lte of a Man's Oareleastsees. ' "Loek out for that rati" na the excla mation of a piano tuner te a reporter, a ,'faw days age, as ha stoe4 watching him take a piano te pieces. The words had barely been said when a large, lean rat Jumped out of the instrument and scam pared across the room and out of an open deer. While he was dexterously remov ing the rat's nest from Inside the piano the reporter asked If rats were usually part and parcel of pianos. The tuner re marked that while probably two-thirds of the Instruments in residences wero free from the rodents, the ether third were in fested with theut, at least that had been his experience during twenty years of his life. Theso in the country, especially in well te de farmers' hevScs, were gener ally inhabited by rats, and in dozens of cases fully half a bushel of small scraps of paper that had been carried there by the pests had been discovered. The paper and the nests were net se bad, but rats rery frequently did the instrument much damage. Rats play havoe with the felts In the action, and he had repaired pianos where the felts had all been eaten away. Occasionally a hungry rat is discovered that shows light, and the wielding of a broomstick, with the accompanying screaming by the women folk, Is neces sary te get rid of the animal. Children oftentimes cause planea te tret ,out of order, but while the trouble caused by them is usually quickly repaired tnere are times when they de mere damage than rats. Left alone in the room with an open instrument the spirit of mischief comes ever them, and a cane or a book is poked in under or among the strings. Tbe owner returns te play en the piano, and then finds it at sixes and sevens. As everything was all right but a few min utes before the cauae of the treuble can not be understood, and then there is bluster about the house. Should the piano be a new ene the maker Is blamed, the instrument is condemned, and a sharp letter is forwarded te the Bcller. The re- rairer with fear and trembling hnstens te he scene-, the trouble is found, and after apologies, the whipping of the small boy who did the mischief, and the payment of the bill for repairs, the piano is left te its fate. WHKIIB TITK MONEY 00E8. Picking up a five cent plece lying en the action, the tuner said: "Hore is something, tee, I find as well as rats' nests and the work of children. Te be sure money Is net found frequently, especially in any considerable amount, but tbe finding of two fat pocketbooks and a ten dollar geld plece I will never forget. The geld had been placed in the piano for safe keeping by a young lady, and Its hiding place for gotten, and my finding it, of course, made the owner happy. The bringing te light of one of the pocketbooks made me $60 richer, that being a present from its loser. It had been missing for a year, and contained $C00. Detectives had'been hunting for thieves who, it was supposed, had stolen the money. The discovery of the pocketbook brought back the recol lection that it had been laid en the top lid of an upright piano, aud that it had no doubt fallen lu the inside, where I had found it. "Instead of getting a reward I came near being arrested, and perhaps sen tenced te a term of imprisonment for finding the purse. Its contents were ever $200, and like the ether one, having been carelessly left en top of the instrument, it fell instde. Doing missed while I was in the heuse, and the owner of the money, a country justice, remembering where he had'laid it, suspicion rested en me as the one who had taken It. When I remarked 'the mysterious actions of the justice, his wife and two daughters, he told me of his less and what he suspected, and threatened 'my-arrcst unless the money was immedi ately produced. It was a bad predicament te be In, and what te de puzzled me. The finding of the ether pocketbook fiashed across my mind. I suggested a search in the Interior of the piano, and there it was found te my joy. The old man took it without as much as saying 'Thank you,' and te this day 1 think he holds the opinion that I hid it away in the piano." Chicago Journal. ' A Dade and II li Trousers. "Bagging at the knees is a matter, I confess, which has caused me mero un easiness than I can tell you. It has tlone mere te turn my hair gray than anything else. But I de net have se much treuble new as I used te have. Yeu knew they are wearing treuscri larger new than a couple of years age. In fact today a well made pair has hardly a legitimate excuse for baednff unless they are worn con stantly. I myself nevcr wear a pair two - a decided inclination te expansion at that most critical point. I found myself at tempting te ward oil the evil. I tried every method I could hear of and evcry one I could invent, but they did little feed. Finally I Invented ene of my own. used te hang the trousers up by the bot toms, being particular te have them hang straight, and then I dampened the Incipi ent bags. After that I attached a weight of some sort te the waist band, se as te bring the strain ever the knees. The cloth in drying came back Inte shape and remained se. "Your tailor or your furnisher has no doubt tried te sell you the dovlce known as 'pants stretcher.' Don't waste your money. I have tried overy kind known, and they don't glve satisfaction. They don't stretch the cloth evenly enough, nor is the euro permanent. That little scheme of my own is the best I ever found. Oh. yesj you may try It. I haven't patented it. But If you really went te knew tbe best and most satisfactory way of remov ing bags from the face of your trousers let me whisper It te you. Ge te your tailor, ter 10 cents or a quarter lie will Brcss them, and nothing works se well, tit when you are en the top of Mount Washington the tailor Is net there. Al ways hang your pantaloons up carefully. I have known fellows who would go home, take off their coat and waistcoat, threw them into a chair, remeve their trousers, dump them In a heap en top of the coat and vest, and then plle the shirt and underclothing en top of the trousers. This Is all wrong. A man's underclothing Is always a little damp, even In winter. The coat and walstceast at the bottom, the trousers between them and the under clothing, the pantaloons are certainly In a regular sweat box. There they are. all crumpled, creased and In a heap, ana, of course, when the wearer comes te put tbem en In the morning he wonders what the deuce makes his trousers leek se out of shape." Bosten Cor. New Yerk World. Profit In rublle Enterprises. E. It. Brady, who has been connected with various publle enterprises In elec tricity, pungently rcmarked: "The aver age American citizen will let you rob him daily and hourly of a small amount of money, and permit you te rob all his fellow citizens In a great community at the same time, se that in the aggregate you have an enormous plunder, when.

Tet, after all, Isn't it rather-a curious weakness in human beings te care for one another's opinions? Why should Jenes mind what you or I think of him or eay.ef him, when you and I are almost certain te be wrong! Nay, why should he mind what the majority think of him, when the majority are usually wrong? what the cultured minority think of him, when the cultured minority are seldom right? what an entire generation think of him, when the next generation may reverse the ver dict?

Living In the city of St. Paul, Mlhn., tedav. is Charlette LattureDe. a French- uenaaian woman, who was born in, 1770, or 112 yeart age. She occupies a small heuse at 889 Broadway, pays $4 rent per month for same. and for the pest fifty years has supported herself by makltur and CTJAIILOTTE LATTOIUUXE 8 0 1 1 1 U g m at B , which business she still continues. She came te St. Paul in 1680, or fifty-threo years age, and de scribes the place at that tlme as an Indian village. Then net a house was visible. Large elm trees grew upon the bottoms near the river, while where the city new Is were running streams, ravines, lakes, bubbling brooks, and a thick growth of trees and underbrush. Indian wigwams wero the only evidences of life, and the whoops of the savages echoed through the forest. She has lived te sea the place grew te a city of upward of 200,000 Inhabitants, and yet she Is mero of a stranger new. than she was in 1889. Her first husband was a musician that is, a fiddler who died years age. Her second husband is new 65 years old, and is well off, residing in Oregon, but from some cause or ether she will net 11 ve with him, but prefers te support herself. She was there at the first treaty with the Indians (1887), se ene can form seme idea of her great age. Her mother lived te the rcmarkable period of ISO years. Her h oaring is quite defectlve. Mrs. Latturelle Is a tall woman, with a geed head of hair, though white, with a prominent nose, a bright, penetrating eye, having nover used glasses, and her vision is be keen she can sce across the river. She has a quick, active move ment, stands erect, and when In conver sation her face, though wrinkled, is very expressive. Her upper teeth are gene, and she has a few straggling lower ones. She had two sons in the Union army, but both are still living. She never had a dollar te de with, but has tugged and tolled, and is new tugging and telling, waiting for the Ferryman te row her across the river into the better 'land. The portrait of Mrs. Latturelle is from a sketch from life by I. D. Larpenteur, Esq., of St. Paul. German Beman Catholic. The thirty-third annual convention of the German Reman Catholic Central Union of the United States, and thev sec ond German Catholle Diet recently 'held in Cincinnati wero Important religious gatherlngs. The former i3 chiefly a be nevolent organization, and embraces 80, 000 members in 428 local assemblies, while the latter is composed of members of the clergy and laymen, who a year ngounited for the purposeof festering Catholic life and sentiment among the German-American Catholics. Upen this latter assembly about 400 members wero in attendance, numbering among 'them prominent Catholle clergymen, such as vicars, abbots and bishops. The pepe had sent his spe cial apostelical blessing, and the well known leader of the center in the German relchstag, Dr. Wlnatherst, Had sent a congratula tory lotter, in which he particu larly emphasized ;the 'necessity for the Catholics of the whele world te co-operate in! regaining thcfuU lndepcndcnce e f AUGUST XAISER. the holy see from all Influences and re strictions hindering the church from de veloping its full strength and movements no singled ent Italy as the country which, showed itself the most inimical te the church and suggested the Idea of periodi cal congresses of Catholics of the whele world. Anether important tople was furnished the assembly by the project of the be celled Lee heuse, te be founded in New Yerk for the benefit of Catholle Immi grants, in honor of the pope's juhllce. Interesting was also tne parade which, en Sunday, the 2d, took place in connec tion with tbe double convention, and was participated in by at least 15,000 people. Particularly interesting la the parade were the Knights of St. Geergo in their knightly armor, with a red cress upon their breasts. They vividly suggested the Crusaders of former centuries. The principal speech of the occasion was made by Dr. August Kaiser, the president of the Diet, ou Sept. 8, in which he re viewed the present state of the Catholle. church with especial reference te the United States.

Beaaa at the Hut of Menrelng-A Wast fat Religions Duty The Indian Burial Ground-Shaking Hand with the Corpse. The 'Treacher's" Sermon. When all were gathered at the hut of mourning the services seemed te consist of a concert of walls, carried en princl- pally by In a gr y tee women, i no corpse, wrapped n a e.rar blanket, en a rude bier, was placed at a distance from the hut, and some ei tne "big men" or tbe tribe made a bundle of the personal effects of the de ceased, and proceeded te born his hut, his wagon and all his household furnishings. There seemed te be a great deal of alter cation accompanying the performance of this wasteful religious duty. When the excitement was ever the women went en walling, while the young bucks went off te have a geed time, sheeting at marks and performing various feats of strength. It is the custom of the Indians te bury their dead at sunset, and the funeral precession started from the Big Spring only in time te reach the burying ground at that time. There was no dlscemlble order te the cortege as it passed along the read for six miles, group after group going by us in much the same fashion as in the morning. There was no scparate convey cenvey convey ance for the cerpse; it was put in the bot tom of a wagon, even tipped up a little n one slde te make-room for the mahsla, who squatted beside it, walling and sway ing her body back and forth. The Indian burial ground is a mound en the lower end of the valley called Big Meadows, en the north fork of the Feather river. It cevers scarcely an acre of ground, and juts out abruptly Inte the valley, with a background of weeded mountain, and before it groan stretches of the meadow land, with its winding river. Here their dead have been buried ever slnce the first habitation of the country, and although the land is private property it will probably always be left te the undisturbed possession of the Indians. BCKSB AT THE GRAVE. Here a very deep and long grave had been dug, much larger than would be made for a whlte man, for it was te con tain net only the corpse, but all of the personal effects which had net been burned, no was a medlcine man, and was considered worthy of a coffin, and when the funeral precession arrived at the grave a well made plne coffin, manu factured by a local carpenter, arrived from an oppeslto direction. The body was placed In it without removing the gray blanket covering the face But the right hand was extricated from its cover ing and all the men passed by it in line and shook-hands with the medicine man. Some gave the, cold hand a hearty grip, but the touch it. ethers was noticeably gingerly. Then the hand was covered again, and a. young fellow dressed In a ivery stylish custom made cult of black jtoefc his place at the -feet of the coffin, .solemnly wound a small nickel plated alarm clock, set the alarm and placed it within1 the ceffia at the dead maa'sfoet. The lid was closed, and the wemca gath ered around, rapping the coffin with their knuckles, passing their hands up and down ever it, howling and meaning all the tlme. The grave was lined with new rush baskets, split up the sides and spread out flat, and upon this carpet the coffin, with much difficulty and many experiments, was safely deposited. Then the walls grew louder, and always the voices of the women were heard above the rest. It is Impossible- te describe that walling.. It was net concerted; evcry ene boomed te be acting independently of the ethers; there was no attempt at tune, but ovcry-new and then the musical voice of a young girl, clear and high pitched, would lead In a sort of cadence, and the heavier voices joined in an incoherent dull cry. The women swayed their bodies from slde -te side, waving in the air little' tufts of cedar which they tossed into the grave. But in all this there was very HttlA sign of real emotion. The young girls would smile and simper and duck their heads if they met the gare of any of the whlte bystanders. Only ene of the women shed any tears, and she was the sister of the medlcine man, quite an oldweman, who steed at the head of the grave really cry. lug behind, a big whlte handkerchief. A COinCAX. OBJECT. . There steed beside her an old buck, a most comical looking object, whose long locks wcre surmounted by a jaunty whlte straw hat, and whose bony figure was radiant In a red flannel miner's shirt and a pair of ragged gray trousers. He was "a Idnd of a preacher," ene of the Indians said, and his loud vociferation and violent gestures wcre the only oulegios which wcre te conselo the mourners and de honor te the virtues of the deceased. Fer he was the only medlcine.man in this part of California, and his death left the tribe unprotected against the ravages of rheu matism and consumption. We could net understand the Indian language, but a sturdy farmer's son by our slde who has picked up some of their vocabulary trans lated for us what the preacher was say ing: "Iniitt doctor geno new; all In j Ins die. Sick here, here, here (pointing te head, lungs and heart). Die, die, never get well. Baby sick, no medlcine, na get any hotter, pretty seen die." Then the mahalas, with their papooses en their backs, walled louder, and the babies joined In the cry, and tried in vain te fight away the flics with thelr little fists. The preacher talked en at intervals, describing the destitution of the tribe, and. the skill and goodness of the departed doctor. Twe blind mahalas steed en the edge of tbe grave, and every new and then had te be held back,from slipping Inte the liole. Finally the preacher laid the dead man's bow and arrows en the coffin. Then a roll eT blankets was thrown in at the feet of the coffin, and two large fur robes. Come mlstoke was evidently made In the selection of articles, for a loud volce of vituperation breke out from the mon otonous walling, and a bd quilt, lined with turkey red calico, was hurled by that fierca old mahala with the short skirts, ever the heads of the crowd hack te the plle from which It had been tkciu The old beets, a leather hunting bag and a pair of spring scales were laid In, and then all was ready for the earth te be shoveled In. The nrenddid net dlspeitse until nearly nightfall, eiM as long as we could bce in the twilight there wcre still several black figures standing llke sen tinels at the grave. Cor.
