An Indian Dwelling.

There has been erected on the Cen
tennial grounds at Philadelphia, on tn
east side of the Government builing, ,
front elevation of one of the peculia
dwellings used by the Eardee Indianl
of the northwest coast of the American
continent.
A large and most valuable collection
of models of these structures has TO-
several weeks been exhibited in tn
building, but the facade now in position
on the outside was taken bodily from ,
Hardee house and sent to the Exposi
tion by DR.. J. W. Swan, a well know
collector of Indian curiositie5 in Alaski
and British Columbia. The facade is O.
cedar, eighteen feet high by forty fee
in width, the distance from the base tc
the caves being about fourteen feet. tt
peculiar interest arises from hefact that
it is completely covered with grotesqut
paintings, representing the mythologica
characters of Indian religion. The
tribes inhabiting the islands of the nortt
Pacific coast have an endless number oi
traditions or superstitions, which are
invariably symbolized by paintings OF
engravings on everything they make,
whether it be house or button. The
figures are sometimes very faithfully
drawn, but usually they are conventional
representations of some strange idea.
On each side of the door are two rudely
painted whales, but these are made up
Of at least a dozen other animals. The
body of the one on the right is filed
with pictures of salmon heads, eels,
human faces with glaring eyeballs; hid.
eous figures, which may be either hu-
man or NEUROLOGICAL. The blow-hole
contains the distorted figure of man,
and on the back is large salmon. The
other whale much resembles this, except
the human faces are even more hideous.
Partly above and partly on each side of
the door is painted grotesque picture
somewhat resembling the human form,
but the feet are represented as claws and
the hands have each large eye in the
palm. Whenever the natives paint or
carve hand this eye always appears in
the same spot and with the same number
of lines, though the significance of the
combination still remains mystery.
The elevation is bordered with green,
dumpy pictures, supposed to be in
tended for human heads and bodies,
with fearfuly distorted limbs. The
most curious part of this exhibit is the
totem post standing directly in front OF
the door. 1t is about twenty-five feet in
height, with a large hole in the base,
which serves as q vestibule to the door,
and the post is carved from top to bot
tom with the most tedious forms i'm
aginable. The first represents a mon
ster bear; above this is grotesque
carving of Itl-tads-dale, the mother Of
the Haidalis, and on the top of this are
two separated dumpy reliefs, supposed
to be limitations of the faces and forms
on the border. To every house erected
by the Haidali, or Sitkatrites, the
"totem posts are regarded as indis-
pensable, and it is believed that every
ornament and every line had at one time
a significance, which may, however, have
been lost in the lapse Of time or only
vaguely understood.

Inc Iattof tOOk n1S prlnclpal 8 armj
and led him TO the PROSTATE form of the
of tho major, whose second, kneeliue
by his side, had torn open his garments.
exposing to view the fatal wound in his
breast, made by the strangers bullet.
"Is your friend seriously hurt ?" in
quired the latter, coolly.
"You can see for yourself, sir" the
second answered.
"There you're in error," replied the
other. 81 am totally blind"
The wounded man, who by this time
revived little, and his second looked
at the stranger in astonishment. There
was no visible defect in his gans OF
vision, but there was fxity of look
that blending of eyes on vacancy
which so unmistakably evinces the alb
sence of sight.
"Who are yon, and what is your mo-
tive in seeking this encountera" the
major family murmured.
First, are you in condition to re-
new it 2" inquired the stranger.
"There is no need. I am dying"
"When I have told you who I am, y
the stranger resumed, "you will scarce
require my motive for what have done.
No wonder you have forgotten James
Merton" he continued, ''for he is great
ly changed, no doubt"
The dying man started and groaned
bitterly.
"But I have not forgotten you,
Richard Buford, nor the injuries you
have done me. A cherished daughter,
the pride of my eyes and the joy of her
mothers heart, you enticed from her
home, deceived by sham marriage, and
then abandoned her to die of broken
heart. My son and only remaining
child, in rash attempt to revenge his
sisters wrongs, fell victim to your &C.
cursed skill. You even robbed him Of
the ordinary chances of combat, unequal
as they would have been, by incasing
your cowardly body in concealed armor.
The loss of both our children unsettled
ny wife's reason, and she died in mad
house. Could l have found you then,
I would have given you no chance for
your life, but, valiant as you always
professed to be, but coward as you are,
you eyaded me. Yet knew we should
some day meet, and I registered VOW
when we did I would offer you a sacri-
6ce to your internal art.
"To this end I studied to become an
adept at it, and succeeded. And when
at length blindness cast its shadow over
me and seemed to render hopeless the
fulfllment of my vow, instead OF
abandoning it I betook myself to new
species Of practice. I sought to make
hearing take the place of sight. Again
I succeeded. Ilearned to take aim with
ear instead of eye. When I heard you
answer Ready to-day, 1 knew the ex-
act direction in which to point my pis-
tol rs we'll as if had seen you. Be-
sides, I could hear you breathing where
you stood. You lost your chance in de-
laying your fire. You wished to make
sure work and overreached yourself"
More than once the major looked ap.
pealingly at the speakers face, but in
those remorseless, sightless eyes there
was no sympathy. And as the labored
breathing grew fainter the old man re-
sumed his listening attitude. At last all
WAS still.
"He is dead :" he said; and its
wonted expression of sober melancholy
settled on the old mans face, as, taking
his companions arm, he turned and
walked leisurely away.

The Power of POliteness.

A young lady abruptly turned the
corner of street, and very rudely ran
against small boy, ,hatless and shoeless.
Stopping as soon as she could, she
turned to him and said: 81 beg your
pardon indeed I am very sorry"
The small, ragged boy looked up in
blank astonishment for an instant, then,
taking off about three-fourths of a hat,
he bowed very low, smiled until his
face became lost in the smile, and an
swered: eyer can hev my parding,
an welcome, miss an yer may run
aein me an knock me clean down, an l
won't say word"
After the young lady passed on he
turned to q comrade and said, half
apologetically: 81 never had any one
ask my parding, an it kind O took me
off my feet"

WASHINGTON, May l.-Representa-
tive Faulkner, chairman pro tenn of the
Committee on Foreign Affairs, hsd an
interview with Secretary Fish this MORN
ing, and learned from him that there
was a meeting Of the British Cabinet
Saturday, at which they determined to
adhere to their former position not to re-
turn Winslow to the United States, as
requested by our government. The pro
test of the Secretary of State,
which the British Cabinet had be-
fore them on Saturday, shows that
such an evasion of the treaty, stipulation
was never before suggested by any gov.
ernment. The Secretary strengthens his
protest by citing number of precedents
aliudIng to the fact that parliamentary
enactment seems to be considered by the
British government of more binding force
than the solemn treaty existing between
the two nations and which provides for
extradition under the circumstances
presented in the case under
consideration, as our government will
not give such assurance as Great Britain
REQUIRES, and as the latter is unyielding
Winslow will be uncvnditIonaily dis
charged to morrow, on the reception
OF official intelligence of these facts.
The Secretary of State will transmit all
correspondence IN the case to the House
of Representatives. There is no doubt
that the action of the British govern
ment will lead to measures having in
view the repeal Of the extradition clause
of the Washburne Treaty
