This title was conferred by the lite
rateurs Of Paris upou Gustare Plancht
because it was thought impossible thai
such another character would ever BE-
found:
At the lowest point in his misery he
inherited small fortune Of fifteen o,
sixteen thousand dollars, which, prop
erly invested, would have supplied the
wants Of his simple life. Such course
did not occur to him. He made his
-adieux to B alzae, under whom The
'Chronique" was about expiring, in
spite of the talent OF Its staff, took his
inheritance with him, and left for Italy,
where he remained for seven years, un
til, in word, his patrimony was ex~
hausted. The traveller now and then
saw fat, seedy man lolling about in
the Vatican and in ST. Peters, lounging
about on the Piucio or lying on the
grass. The charm of an indolent life
none could appreciate better than he.
To eat and drink in his lodgings with
out stint, to look at the Apollo Bel
videre without any idea of making an
article out him, to talk to we'll instruct
ed art pilgrims, to note an occasional
defect in the architectural lines of the
great builders, to forget all about the
"Revue DIES Deux Mondes" - this was
something akin to happiness.
He who had all his life been such a
constant reader, did not read any more
The only mental effort he made was to
note down his impressions, and the on
ly book he looked into was his notes
book. During this far aaiente, the idea
of renewing his wardrobe did not oc
cur to him, and he wandered from Flor
ence to Naples in his seedness. without
baggage-eontent with blue skies and
good cheer.
The melting away of lis fortune, and
his love of this life, caused him to en-
terrain some idea of becoming monk.
To have his material wants supplied
and crafty his taste for research with
out compulsion, vas something that ap
pealed to his apathetic nature. Wheth-
er the notion of entering convent was
seriously thought of not, in six or eight
weeks it was almost forgotten, and
blanche, without any money, returned
to Paris, where the editor of his maga-
zine received him with efusion.
His appearance in the Latin Quarter
after seven years absence, in the gar
ments of a Diagnose, created consider
able enthusiasm among those men
whose Munger described in his novels.
AS he took his seat in the Cafe Menus,
a Bohemian poet respectfully received
from him his we'll worn, greasy hat,and
improvised an ode thereon. The most
forward begged the honor of clinking
his glass. Had there been laurel in the
neighborhood, it is probable he would
have been crowned. The seedy Aris-
tarchus smiled, nodded and drank copi-
ously. --------- -------- -----

A farmers team came along, with
hay-rack, and Samuel took seat on
the sbinder." He rode short dis
lance, and then let go and stepped into
the coils Of rope dragging behind,
and, before he knew what was up, he
was dragging along through the slush.
He gave an awful yell as he realized
his situation, but the farmer lost his
hearing years ago, and sat on his seat
as stiff as the Cardiff giant, while the
horses ambled along at an even pace.
Whoop! Hey! Say, you! Oh, murder!'
yelled Samuel, as the slush ran up his
pantaloons and his back was raked on
the knobby street, but the farmer was
thinking of home, sweet home, and he
didn't reply. "You these! Whoop.
Hi! Ho! ERASMUS and blazes!" roared
Samuel, as he slid on his back and side
and felt bis coat going over his head.

Samuel Blaine didn't find. Sometim IS

Samuel Blainel" ':Sayl I'm being drawed
to death-stop yer hosses!" shouted
Sam; but the farmer was thinking of a
grave. on the hill side and he never
turned his head. A man stopped on
the walk and yelled, "Say! you've got
boy therel" but the farmer nodded his
head and kept on. Finally, as he
.urned into Eighth street and headed
for Michigan avenue, he looked around
Seeing Samuel coming up behind,
rolling over and over, he thought the
boy was trying to catch on, and he put
the "bud' to his horses and went three
blocks farther and drew up at

forty pounds of glue to mend him up

THE ORIGIN OF INDIAN NAMES,

A member of Major Powell's expedi-
ton, which has been engaged in the
Government survey of The territories,
furnished the "Tribune" some interest
ing notes of the discoveries made iii
the origin of Indian names It. seems
that each tribe or primary organization
Of Indians, rarely including more than
two hundred souls, is, in obedience to
the traditional laws Of these people, at
tached to some well-defned territory
or district, and the tribe takes tho name
of SUCH district. Thus the U-inrtats.
known to white men as a branch Of
the Utes, belonged to the Uintah Val.
icy. U-imp is the name for pine; too
meap, for land or country; U im-too
meap, pine land; but this has been
contracted to U'in4ah, and the tribe
inhabiting the valley were called U.in-
tats. D. -faU.r
The origin of the term Ute is as
follows: U is the term signifying ar
row; U-too meap, arrow land. The
region of country bordering on Utah
Lake is called U too-meap because of
the great number of reeds growing
there, from which their arrow shafts
were made. The tribe formerly inhab
iting Utah Valley was called q tab alta.
which has been corrupted into tho
name Ute by the white people of the
country. The name U-tah-ats be
longea only to small tribe living III
the vicinity Of the lake, but it has been
extended so as to include the greater
part of the Indians of Utah and Color
ado. Another general name used bv
white men is Piutes. A tribe of e tab
ats being defeated and driven away by
stronger tribe, who occupied their
country and took their name, were
obliged to take new name correspond
ing to the new home in which they
settled themselves. But they also
called themselves Pal I. tab ats or true
Ustah ats. The corrupted name Piutes
is now applied to the Indians of large
section of country. Several of these
tribes have numerous names, ard in
this way the plumber of individual
tribes has probably been much overes-
timated.
