SwEDE AND INDIAN LANGUAGE
Some time ago a Sweee came to
this city direct from his native
country, but from the fact that he
knew nothing of our language and
could not make himself understood,
his efforts to secure work were un-
successful. Finally, as a last resort,
he went to Fort LeayenWorth and
enlisted in the regular army. One
day, shortly after the arrival of the
Indian prisoners here, he strolled
around to the guard house in which
they were confined, and overhear-
ing some of the conversation going
on between the Cheyennes, was
struck with the similarity between
their language and his own. He
entered the cell and began to talk
with several, and found that he
could, by talking TO them in his
mother-tongue, make them under
derstand. The fact coming to the
ears of Gen. Pope, that gentleman
has sent on to Washington, recon-
mending that the Swede be sent TO
st. Augustine, Fla, where the Indi-
ans are st present confined. to. act
at interpreter.-ll Worth Times.

STRuCrEY NESS.

This was the way it happened In
p town not far from Eimira: "One
of the regular attendants at Central
church is railroad conductor. He
is regular, not so much from any
personal inclination for CalVanism,
as from the fact that he has first
rate Presbyterian wife who keeps
him in the way he should go. A few
Sundays since, one of the deacons
was absent, and our conductor was
requested to pass the plate. OF
course he consented. For the first
dozen pews everything passed off
we'll. There was a regular financial
shower of nickles and dimes, and
the railroad man watched sharp, but
couldn't see that anybody "got
away" without responding. Finally
he came to a seat where the occu-
pant was either busted or disinclin-
ed, for he shook his head, but made
no attempt on his pocket. The con-
ductor looked at him sharply. but no
cash appeared. Then he nudged his
shoulder, and softly called, s'Tickets,
siri" Again the mans head wagged
horizontally, but the stamps didn't
come. "Pass, them whispered the
conductor. Still no response. just
as the railroad chap was about to
cali up the fireman and brakeman to
help pitch the impecunious wor-
shipper out of doors, the regular dea-
con came in and relieved his proxy.
The conductor says he believes in
running church the same way you
would q railroad train-if man
won't pay, or. hasn't pass, let him
git"

Leaven1vorah.- Nativity.

Leavenworth was 81 years ole
last Sunday, June Is, and the Daily
Commercial spreads Itself as jubi-
lee issue, with its pages nearly all
full of historical facts and bust
ness descriptions making q very
good show indeed, not only for the
past, but for the future growth and
prosperity of that city. The town
site was laid out in juno, 1854, by
some western Missouri men, who
thought there ought to be y city
near Fit. LeaVenworth. The land
was then owned by the Delaware
Indians, and the army officers OPP
posed the enterprise, but the town
site fellows finally managed 10 buy
i'll some 800 acres. and began work.
In 1857 the Government bought out
the Indian titles and gave deeds to
the land. The first buildings were
occupied by printing press AMI a
saw mill, without any roof, and the
kansas Herald" was The name of
the paper. The first child, Cora
Kyle, born in the city, is now the
good looking wife OF James NJ. AL
len, book dealer, and when she was
born was presented with town lot
by the town company.
The city now claims $4,000 popu-
lation, with over 500 wholesale and
retail establishments, representing
the various branches Of trade; a
large number of forwarding and
commission houses dozen palatial
public schools, with other educa-
tional edilices high school, n nor
NAL school, four four and four saw
mills, and forty odd manufacturing
establishments twenty-seven SPLEEN

is evidently the biggest city in the

ENDURANCE OF EASTERN HORSES.
Australian horses, unprepared,
unshod and uncared for, are in the
constant habit of performing forty,
fifty or even sixty miles a day,
when on a journey over rough roads
or through the wild native bush,
without even a track. Their food
consists of what they can pick up
for themselves, in many cases when
tethered 10 prevent their straying,
and their grooming in having the
mud scraped off with a bunch of
grass; but they have at least one
advantage over Caradoc, in being
allowed to rest and case their limbs
in whatever manner they choose
during the night. 1t is stated on the
authority of Abd-el-Kader, that
Arab horses will travel for three
or four months at the rate of
fifty miles day without showing
fatigue, and are capable of doing
one hundred and fifty miles in a sim
gle day during the journey. if treat
ed with great care, and quietly rid
fllen the next. Some years ago an
Arab, only four hands one inch high
wSs ridden in India four hundred
miles in five days for bet; and its
owner offered to repeat the feat after
one days rest. This offer, however,
was not accepted, as the game little
horse won the match the first time
with the greatest ease.-Ex.

beautiful prairies, gathering the
"golden grain" which has proved

ready for the reapers- Alfalfa Glow

grasses are doing exceedingly well.
