Yes, she wasefraid of even the friend.
Best aboutys--4iny Sally was;but when
one - ,--daygeing , .dOwn to th'swell, she
found .an Inditin,woman sitting there

beads of eyes and, went toeleep on her

a living hand in that place of death. I
turned and.there stood.,,Ayanona. She
was a SteriifoOkiiig,wakkaliaiways, and
sterner"' tlfafi ever now. She carried
her baby ou her back as sip bad on the
day she brought her presents to , Sally,
and she had a blanket wrapped about
her. She had been Big Thunder's
wife ' • now she was his widow. rb
metnhered that; but there was no tri
umph in her face—only that stern sor
row. At last she spoke.
" Big Thunder wasn great chief. The
white man killed him. Other chiefs
have killed the white mart. It is good."
"She never harmed you," 1 said . ,
"She never did anything but good with
her innocent hands. 0, my wife! my
wife! my Sally! where is she? Show
me where she is, that .E may die beside
her!" •
"I will show you," she said, "come."
I followed her. She went into the
weed . , rflierit tent'vyas,Spreadr- - A rude
thiffg, still a bhelter)•.,:
"Vile - medicine woman is there," she
said, and turned' her back otl me and
stood silent, with her head beet down
and her face covered with her blanket.
I don't know what I expected to see ;
I dare not, oven now try to think. I
put the covering on the tent aside, and
stooped down tolgok-in, just as you'd
stoop to look into a grave; and in a mo
ment more I had given a shout of joy
that ought to have made its way as high
as heaven, for there alive and unhurt,
and stretching out her dear little hands
towards me, was my dear little Sally,
with her new born babe upon her bo
-sem ! Stronger joy can't kill else I'd
'have
my' heart
and th,iilte; illoyd I fig tk'er
:to my lieart find crying, as -I never
thought,a man could cry before.
She told me the story. According to.,
Indian laws Wauona, as the widow of
:the murdered man, had a right to claim
one of his murderers-for her own :to do
:what'she chose with*, and she asked
'for Sally, not to tortuire her, which was
:the object of the law, I reckon, but to
.keep her from all harm and help her
lin her woman's peril, and put her new
born baby on her bosom and say :
"Medicine woman gave Wanoua her
;pappoose. , Wanona,gave medicine'wo
'man her pappoose. 'Good." :,‘
I went eut and tried to thank the In
dian woman; but she would not even
look at me. • I said "May I take Sally
and gcr, She answered. "Go."
So I took the two, mother and child,
before me and rode away. That wom all
never turned. She covered her face
with her blanket, and stoodlike a
statue until we could see her no snore.
You see, that miserable chicken thief
i
hti.
of a Big Thunder was her hus 'and, after
all,fandl,atilmse Oho' thou
~-- b ilii a'.
great'fellw: . She'Would h •Ve- 2 1iilled'
me with pleasure, but she I t me live
for Sally's sake, ;though a word would
have brought some of the red devils out
On me in a minute. I never saw her
afterwards. We settled in a place fur
ther east, and were not troubled with
the Indians again ' • but whenever I
hear folks say that red creatures
have no tratitUde, .I. dbn't' 'much agree
with them.. I know one Indian woman
had, else my old woman anal wouldn't
set, as we do watching our grandohil

often says she • reckons we shall meet
that Indian woman in heaven. Our
parson don't think so, because . she
wasn't converted; but I do.
' " Do, you say your prayers• regularly
every night and awning?" asked a Fyinr
pathetic lady of a little shoeblack, to
whom, she had just given a trifle. 'I.I

is polite, for all that, and may offer you

you to refuse every offer; for if you do

The request was a strange one, but
nevertheless easily granted ; and ftho
readily,proMised to do all hi-her power
to' retain her situation. ,
T 1 ~vng ante in Mir. nftornonn harbin

caught a glimpse oCa tali handsome

"Do you fancy this work, Miss Bur

"Yes, sir,"
"I am glad, for Adele is hard to please;
do you think you will be content to

-"Yes sir."
The gentleman turned away, evident
ly thinking It useless to try to engage
her in 'conversation, and she went sober
ly on with her work.
It rained when . the -hour came for
Viola's 'return liepie, and she stood a
moment at the - door, 'looking out Into

Portrait of a Famotu; Queen of Waih.
ingtpn. , , ,
A Washingtou correspondent writes
us as follows:
"Sitting the other night in the thea
tre, there was pointed out to me for the
first time the once iambus and fashion.,
able : Adele Douglas, of wholn the la
dies of every city in, the country heard'
and talked; around Wholll , ten years
'ago polite society was' encircled like an
eddy. As I looked toward the .seat in
dicated by a friend, I saw a woman
dressed in plain black, Roman matron
cast of face and head, still 'fine 'and
graceful looking, with the full tert years
upon her celebrated beauty, and sug
gesting it only as a faded ribb,on, .calls
up a forgotten romance of .a."bygone
fashion, Not observed more than the
ordinary, she sat there quietly, not look
ing beyond the face of her husband
for the looks and smiles that in the old
time made her eyes_the centre of. every
assembly. The contrast of the picture
with the, one in memory recalled her.
romance, as real and vivid a one as the
best out of George Sand. ' , Nour lady
readers of twenty-five 'remember the
name of her family well enough. It
was thatef Cutts, an old Southern stock
here, that by the rule and grace of
chivalry was accounted good, though
none of its members ever grew too much
wealth: or prominence,
,and-Adele's
father held for his life-time nothing
more than a respectable' position in a
Government department here. 'Her
mother's family was poor,and ran back
for a generation of two in the district.
So the ' daughter's fortune, as Spanish
says, was the dower of beauty, and not
much beside._ But this she improved
with grace and tnannerS,—and a toler
able education of the Catholic Semin=
ary in Georgetown, and came 'out on
society here a commanding, .courtly-at
tired, conquering belle- 7 ---the rarest thing
that' ever liapp to girls :born in
Washington. Silu starred a year 'or
two as she was. Then, when hearts
enough had melted, and knees had gone
down like stubble before her stateliness,
the elegant and powerful Douglas bent
too, and she lifted him up with her
hand. The "Little Giant" was the pet
and the lion of the Senate, a prince in
wealth and power, and she was of blood
royal by the, gift - of beauty. It was a
coalition-Ws:Lt.:Wrath lug ton_ !.! nigh- life"_
could notresist,. so, Adele Cutts became,
the elegant Mrs. Senator Douglas, the
Douglas, the queen reg,riant of society,
the glass of fashion into which the po
lite
world looked for its manners.—
Douglas
,and -Breckinridge, who quer
reled during their_ days in the Senate,
were Damon and Pythias then, and
built side by side for their residence the
splendid row of buildings in this city,.
since more famous for tile residence of
Grant and now for Sherman: ' 'Mrs.
Douglas gave her reeeptions there.. To
be admitted to them , :was to be in com
pany; to be seelecr was not to be
known. A waveof her dainty fan. in
those days might have gondenmed you
front the ton as efibetually as thepatrie
lan Roman ladies turned the gladiator
to death with their thumbs. The queen
of " Douglas. Row" made no pretension
to wisdom - or brilliancy, but. Senators
and foreign ministers have scarcely
found- since at the- gay Capital a-recep
tion room so graceful and attractive as
hers,. . She received everybody, there,
and never a breath of scandal blew
over her fair reputation. She was en
viable. When she was sick in her lux
urious home, the town was in a com
motion as over a stricken -empress, and
Franklin. Row, the Capitol and hotels
vied with each other in sending condo
lence and kind inquiries for her health.
'She was no - less - the centre of society in
her Western home. Everybody gave
her receptions when she came to Chica
go, Douglas' bride. 'Some one has de
scribed her to Me standing, one of the
first nights, among the ladies of the
dressing-room, a head -taller than any,

odalated everything; Prom a -poor
irl she went into • enjoyment of the
rich Senator's wealth, - step- by step,—
nothing sudden or bizarre. All this
,was a romantic epiSode cif five years.—
Then she became the widow of Doug
las, in proper mourning, with the et:
soda behind , her. But widowhood, lie
la. Eamee tells us, is . the,best cosmetic,
and she emerged, tWo Or three years

they say—into a quiet; beautiful home,
and we catch a gliMpse of her now7a
days', faintly and rarely. - ; Her home-is
an elegant one, petite and cosy,. a gift of
Douglas to her mother, and not far
away from the palatial ono she entered
so often . , long years ag i, with her more
lovable companion. . Passing it some
times in - the evening, you catch the
glimmer of soft lamps through closely
drawn curtains.' We will not tear them
aside, though they say that behind
them are beautiful children playing,
and more happiness than ever the statey

'mixing gin toddies and - Santa Cruz
punches, he instructed himself in the
abstrre science of earthquakes --if
there be such a science, properly. He
invented ti 'machine for determining
the d rection of earthquake shocks. It

a sheet of whitfi'paper that it would
make a mark tip and down, across -or
zig-zag, when the house *as shaken by
an earthquake; and sa, whenever Stew- ' -
t4.Was out of hie boots or his bed, he
dfd not rush for the streetS, as other .
citizens did, but rushed to see what the ,
earthquake had written him as to What
direction it was traveling and whither
it was probably bound. The building
was a small frame one, and the hogs
got to • scraping themselves against it
for comfort; their performances were
faithfully recorded . by the earthquake
machine, and - as 'faithfully reported to
the public by Stewart,nntil he--found
out the fraud at last—and Irene tobsogn

he can swing the fora - Ada:We scientific

His latest achievementwas the promis

day, and the specification of the hour
wherein it would arrive, its exact dura

a ,stipply of misery and -consternation
for the occasion •and when they' were
all ready, the earthquake did not r eetne.
