WHAT THE INDIANS DID AT THE
SMITHSONIAN On Monday morning,
about twenty of the Indian chiefs and
warriors now in the city, visited the Smith.
sonian Institute, and were conducted
through the various departments, where
they eyinced their surprise and delight.

we're particularly interested by the repre-
sentation of war dance around two cap
tlves-a woman and child. They were
much disappointed at not finding portraits
of any Of their own tribes in the gallery.
In the apparatus room, a number Of
them were induced to join hands, and a
severe galvanic shock was given them.
Some of them gave vent TO the significant

turned fiercely about to discover the per.

rubbed their arms and elbows, and from
the general talk in their own language,

a scientific discussion of the nature Of the
singular manifestation. ' '.1 p,
Afterwards several OF them took shocks
singly. and it was curious to witness the
grim determination with which these sto.

that air of impassiveness which tradition
asserts they maintain when undergoing

STEAM NAVIGATION or Tnr MIssoU.
ri so YEARs Aoo.-The first steamer
that navigated the Missouri as far as the
mouth of the Yellow Stone, was that en-
gagged in the famous expedition of Lewis
4 Clark, some fifty years ago, the Wes-
tern Engineer, boat of about the size Of
a respectable yawl. She accomplished the
trip from St. Louis TO Sioux City in one
season. The first regular boat in the MIS-
souri, river trade was the Otoe, which ran
one whole season, under the commend of
our fellow citizens, Capt. j. B. Hill late
of the firm of Hill & Conn. This was
we believe, in the year 1918. The Otoe
was very different boat from those now
navigating the Missouri She drew four

Globe, and like the other boats Of those
days, was slow and Of a heavy draught.
This was the only trip made that season,
by steamer, in the Missouri. How grea,
has been the change since the Otoe, the
Hancock and the Globe pressed the sands
and lazily plowed the waters of the mud.

And came down with falling star.

Awakened from some pleasant dresms,

MISCELLANEOUS READING.
A MAN WITH TOO MUCH MONEY

Many will recollcc. that eccentric EngIish-
man, Sir William Don, who played engage
ments at all our principal theatres, few
years since. He once possessed prInce!y
fortune, but wasted it all by his e1traTagance.
Strange to say, he was not inclined to be dis
sipated, but appeared TO be entirely wrapped
up in conceiving plans by which he might
get rid Of his money. His wealth actually
became burden almost impossible for him
to bear. During market days in Dresden,
manv booths aud stalls are filled with pottery,
porcelain, ard china ware Of every kind,
which are offered for sale. Some OF these
manufactures are exceedingly expensive
Early in the morning, when the market was
crowded with purchasers, Sir William would
mount a fine blood-horse, take with HIM n
groom, who was also mounted, and, pushing
into mad gallop, would dash headlong
through one Of these booths, smashing and
destroying the contents of the establishment.
If one fierce charge did not suffice to render
the destruction complete, another was made,
and everything literally CLEANED out" IL
is said that Sir William sometimes commit
ted two or three of these insane pranks IN
single morning. As might be expected, Sir
William was, by his perseverance,, soon CO.
abled to run through all his wealth, just as
be had run through the booths. What was
still worse, be was put through the court of
bankruptcy, was imprisoned by creditors,
was often almost without the necessaries OF
life, and has been in debt ever since.

LAZY LADIES.

In "a Woman's Thoughts about WOmen," "
we meet with this true solution OF most Of the
bad domestic management in families:
"The house has her troubles-ay, be
she ever so gifted with that blessed quality
of taking them lightly and cheerfully. IL is
not pleasant for lazy ladies to get breakfast
over at that regular early hour which alone
sets household fairly a-going for the day; nor
for unaritbmetical ladies, who have always
reckoned their accounts by sixpences, to put
down each item sud persevere in balancing
periodically receipts and expenditures; nor
for weakly, nervous, sell-engrossed ladies to
rouse themselves sufficiently to put their
house in order, to keep it 80, not by occasion
al spasmodic setting to rights, but by gener-
al mothodical overlooking of ell that Is going
on therein. Yet, unless all this is done, 1t
is in vain to insist on early rising, or grum-
