a Postal System;
TT WAt to the NortbwpRt of
Amorica in the mysterious
f'i corner of Tritish Columbia,
(T bortleroil by "uncxploreii
territory" anil hemmed in by mighty
mountains, dwells a race of red men
who daily grow more numeroue, who
have made themselves jirofieient in
msny of the arts of poaee, nud who,
as they become known in their customs
and conditions, must cxeito the won
der and attention of the civilized
world. The r)oplo are known to the
few travelers who hare found their
way among them as tho Tinnees, and
they have their infrequent communi
cation with "civilization" chiefly
through tho Hudson Hay Company
posts at Fort George and tort Fraser.
Their morals are more strictly guarded
than are those of any white Nation of
to-dny ; they csteom cleanliness both
of person and surroundings they
do courage ; and they have a saying
that "to desert a friend is worse than
to slay him."
Tho last white visitor to the home
of the Tinnees were the men compos
ing the Government survey party sent
north last summer under A. L. Fou
drier, which has recently returned.
The appended notes of tho chief of
the expedition give some" interesting
facts concerning the Tinnees and the
laud they live in.
"The immense country north of the
fifty-fourth parallol, generally de
scribed as tho 'lako region,' is hardly
known to tho present generation.
Years ago, during the gold excitement
in Omincca, a great deal of trade and
travel waa taken that way, and nearly
all tho old pioneers are familiar with
tho wonderful scenery of the section.
"Sinco tho gold boom the only in
habitants of this extensive country
have been India is and a few Hudson
Bay Company employes. The natives
are known as the Tinnees, this name
including tho who! race, somo of the
representatives of which inhabit the
country east of the Rocky Mountains,
others peopling tho lake region proper
and st;.U others living as far to the
south as the Chilcotin lliver. The
race is divided into many families :
First, the Chilcotin s, living on the
plain of that name ; then the 'Car
riers,' or 'porteurs,' around Fort
Fraser, and, again, the Siccanies and
the Nahanies, occupying the country
north and east of the Nechaco River.
"In language the Tinnees have no
relationship with the other tribes of
the North, but, curiously, Indians liv
ing as far south as California (the
Navajoes, for example), or in Okla
homa, the Chilcotees, speak a tongue
very similar to that of the Tinnees.
"Of late years a young and ener
getic missionary, Father Morrice, of
Btuart Lake, has been giving his time
and talents to the upbuilding of a
Tinnees Nation which shall compare
not nnfavorably in many ways with
that of the whites. The mother
tongue of the Tinnees, which is ex
ceedingly rich in expression, has been
through his efforts reduced to a sys
tem of phonetio writing, tho charac
ters being remarkable for the simplic
ity and from the fact that they rest
rather than weary the eye of the
reader. The written language is so
simple and so systematic that a child
or a man may with equal facility learn
to read or write it to perfection. Not
one of the tribe, from a child of six
to the old men and women of three
score and ten, is unable to-day to
either read or write.
"The phonetic Tinnees is employed
by the Indians in their correspond
ence for they have risen to the dig
nity of a postal system of their own
in the marking of signs for the guid
ance of travelers and explorers, and in
the hundred and one other ways fa
miliar to civilized Nations.
"To further develop the theory and
render its success more complete
Father Morrice, with the aid of the In
dians, had special types cast from his
own designs, bought a printing press
and three years ago printed and pub
lished several elementary works on the
language and history of the Nation.
For the past two years he has been is
suing a monthly newspaper, to which
every Indian in tho vast district is a
willing subscriber. It is called the
News. Its first pace is devote! ex
clusively to local afl'airs, such as hunt
ing and trapping and all else. which
may practically interest the commun
ity in which it circulates. Another
portion is devoted to religious sub
jects, and the remainder of its sixteen
pagos of space treats of the world in
general, a great deal of attention be
lug paid to science, the customs and
manners of foreign countries, useful
inventions, etc.
"mere is, says Mr. routiner, "no
other part of the province where the
Indians are so nignly civilized, so
truthful and so honest rare qualities
indued for an Indian race. One great
advantage traceable to the publication
of the News is the development of a
taste for and a knowledge of agricul
ture. The hunting and trapping are
nearing an end in the lake region, and
the natives see that the resource which
they must in future look to is farming
The new generation is fast becoming
a community of scientific tillers of the
soil. Were all the Indians of America
in so advanced a state they would at
no time be a cause of anxiety ; the
Government would never be called
upon to supply their wants, and the
white brother could leurii not a little
from them that he does not now
know."

Dwarfing Trees in Japan.
The art of dwarfing plants is so lit
tle known in other lands that a short
description of its process is given by
Garden and Forest. The pines may
truly be considered the most import
ant of all trees in Japan, and great
care is taken in their cultivation and
preservation. They are generally
grown from seed, and great care is
taken to select th3 chcicest quality of
seed. In the spring of the second
year, when the Eiedlings are about
eight inches in toight, they are staked
with bamboo caaes and tied with rice
straw, the plants being beat in differ
ent desirable shapes. In the next fall
they are transplanted to richer soil
Bnd are well fertilized. In the follow
ing spring the plants are restaked and
twisted and tied in fanciful forms.
This mode of treatment is given until
the seventh year, when the tree will
have assumed fairly large proportions,
the branches being trained in graceful
forms and the foliage like small crowds
of dense green. The plants are now
taken up and placed in pots one and a
half feet in diameter, and are kept
well watered every succeeding year ;
great care must be taken to keep new
shoot pinched back. After another
three years of this treatment the trees
are virtually dwarled, tnere being no
growth thereafter. The dwarfing of
bamboo is another important branch
of Japanese nursery business. A few
weeks after the shoots begin to grow,
and when the trunks measure about
three inches in circumference and five
feet in height the bark is removed,
piece by piece, from the joint. After
rive weeks, when the plants get some
what stout, the stem is bent and tied
in. After three months, when the side
shoots grow strong enough, they are
all cut off rivo or six inches from the
main trunk, they are then dug up and
potted in sand. Care should be taken
not to use auy fertilizer, but plenty
of water should be given. Cut off the
large shoots every year in May or
June, and after three years the twigs
and leaves will present admirable yel
low and green tints.

bishop of Canterbury places the crown
upou the monarch s nead every peer

A M1STAKKX MOTION.
An old but very mistaken notion Is that
drink gives strength. A test was onoe tried
to determino the strength-giving power of
alcohol. Two gangs of men, as nearly equal
in size and strength as possible, were put to
work breaking stone. Both gangs oontnined
nn equal number of men, but to one gong
liquors containing alcohol were given. At
first the nlcohol gang did by far ths most
work, but when tbeeffeoto of the alcohol
ceased, the men fell far behind the other men
in their work, so that at the end of the day
the gang which did not drink had done the
greatest amount of work. This was con
tinued for three or four days, the result being
the same. The experimenters then reversed
the gangs, giving tne non-alcoholic gang al
cohol, and allowing the alcoholio gnngnone
but the men not using the stimulant cams
out ahead as before.

These figures show the euormous profits of
the beer business, and also where much of the
money, especially of the workingmen of this
oily, who are so largely p.-itroua of the beer
saloons, has gone to iu the last twenty-five
years. Tney have contributed, largely to
these many millionaire brewers' fortunes,

cutoff, many of them und their families are
kept from actual starvation by the aid of the

umns in 1393.
According to the Swiss Federal Statistical
Bureau, Switzerland, though so largely a

A large number of souvenirs, in the form

The generally invented theory that alcohol
is uo good "to koep out the cold" has ouce
more received continuation by the fact that
the celebrated explorer, Dr. Nunseu, who
started on his voyage to the Arctic regions on
June 24tb, has taken no alcohol whatever

The Elephant a Coward.
"Tlio elephant Is art arrant cow
ard," saiil John L. Tcrkins, as lio ro-
counted hia experiences in a circus to
a Kroup of fricn.ls. "I hail charge
of an elephant onoo that had a viciout
disposition, Imt ho would do anything
that I wanted him to. I usod to prod
hint with sharp stool and otherwise
impress upon him thnt I was in aster
nud iutcndod to remain so. An nn-
ilorltccpcr went on tho kindness the
ory ami treated tho animal ai
well as if ho was a member of his own
family.
"After wo had been together about
a year I was awakened ono night iu
litllo Nebraska town by human shrieks
in tlio elephant s quarters. Hushing
to tho place, I found tho underkeeper
being crushed to death. As soon as
tho cowardly pachyderm saw mo ho
trembled in every muscle, dropped tho
man and tried to run, but I gave him
a lesson with my Bteel prod that ho
never forgot. Then 1 picked np the
mail, who, I supposed, of course, was
dead, and I found that ho had re
ceived only a broken arm and a
brokeu rib as a result of his kindness
to the elephant. Ho got well in a few
weeks, went to tho elephant and punc
tured him with a steel prod until the
fellow bellowed for mercy. After that
wo were all together four years, but
tho elephant never again attempted to
injure either of ns." St. Louis Globe-
Democrat.
