Indian Vengeance.

On Thursday night last a medicine
woman of the Piute tribe, who has
been living near Bridgeport, was shot
to death by three buck Indians. On
Friday morning the Chief of the tribe
called upon Judge Whitman and re-
lated to him the circumstances of the
killing. The medicine woman had
failed to cure sick child of the Chief,
and, this being the third patient who
had died on her hands, she was con-
demned to death. Two young men as
sisted the father of the dead child in
carrying out the edict of the law. She
was removed short distance from the
camp and shot, the three shooting her
with one or more balls from six-shoot-
ers. The object of the Chiefs visit to
Judge Whitman was to procure coffin
in which to bury his child, he not lik-
ing the rude mode of burial more gen.
orally adopted by the savages. The
child was buried with great ceremony,
all the members of the tribe attending
the funeral. The old medicine woman
was buried without a coffin, hole be-
ing dug two or three feet deep and she
trmbled in in her everyday attire.
This is the third case of Indian Justice
being carried out that has come to our
knowledge within few weeks, yet we
fail to hear of any arrests.-Bodie

Seal and Salmon Fight.

An interesting sight, says the Dundee
Evemi,sg Telegraph, was witnessed off
West Ferry the other day in a desperate
fight between a seal and huge salmon.
The combatants were not above a hun
dred yards from the shore, and the en-
counter was therefore plainly seen. For
more than an hour the fight lasted, the
seal all the while dashing about in the
water after its agile prey. During the
progress of the fight the salmon was
tossed many times into the air after the
fashion of cat with mouse. 1t was
then seen to be very large fish. After
the fish was fairly exhausted, for the
seal was the victor, the seal rose fire.
quently to the surface of the water with
its prey in its mouth, the salmon, how
ever, not being yet dead, as the move
ments of its body plainly indicated.
Whether or not the seal swallows its
prey whole is not known to the writer;
but to spectators of this morning $
fight, the protracted nature of the battle
seemed to have origin in some desire on
the part of the seal not to injure it's
prey or break it with its teeth. There
are large numbers of seals in the river
at the present time. Between seventy
and eighty of these animals, many of
them very large and OF different cofors,
were seen summing themselves at low
tide on Abertay Sands one day last
week.

The St. Louis Journal of agriculture
says: Farms can be bought in any

IT is pretty well settled question,
that without direct personal attention no
farmer can succeed with the live stock
business. And without live stock, farm
ing is MISUNDERSTANDING.

whole duty in the way of embellishing
the surroundings Of his home. Every
home and house should have an ample,

boiling water ready and pour on to the
meal sufficient water to moisten it thor

The mixture, before cooking, should be
considerably sitter than ordinary grid

rather less than half an inch thick, for
half an hour. The excellence of these
cakes depends on the meal being fresh
and well scalded.

A Heart Of Stone.

A WOMAN about fifty years old yester-
day sat behind a chestnut stand on Con-
gress street east, waiting for the avari-
cious public to come along and gobble
up her fifty cents worth of stock. There
was motherly, benevolent look to her
face, and a physiognomist would have
said that she felt sorry for everybody
who wasn't able to start chestnut
stand. She hadn't been there long
when lump of boy nine or ten years
old, having the blacklist bare feet ever
seen in Detroit, and his left hand rolled
up in a dirty rag, sat down on the curb
stone within three feet of her and be-
gan weeping and wailing in the most
affecting manner.
boo! boo-hoo! Oh! boo-hoo-hooy'
he walled as he wandered to and fro in
seeming great distress of mind.
The woman gave him a passing
glance and then looked across the
street. He walled again, louder than
before, but she never moved her eyes.
"Oh! oh! Pm most deadr' he
sobbed, but her only response was to
bend over and pick out bad chestnut
and crowd it down into the middle of
the full half-pint measure.
The lad then moved along until he
was at her feet, and pulling his old cap
down a notch further he walled:
"Oh! how Iwish had ma and pa,
and wasn't poor orphan boyr'
street to see if any runaway teams were
coming. That same benevolent look
hung around her mouth, but she didn't
seem to know that q poor orphan was
near.
"Oh! how cold and hungry and sick
I am!' howled the boy, as he lookedup
at her with fearful eyes.
She didn't even wink one of her
optics.
"Nuthin' to eat for three days-slept
in an ice-hOuse-arm out of jint-fever
almost burstin' my head open, and oh!
how want to be somebody's darlin',
and bring in the coal, and build the
fires, and be awful goodr'
The woman found another bad chest
nut, and slowly put it where it would do
good.
The boy was getting discouraged.
He rose right up before her and cried
| out:
won't you give sufferin' orphan
ten chestnuts!'
"Gwoff!'' she growled, while the be-
nevolent look increased.
Wont you give starvin' orphan
just five-five w0rmy ones!'
"Gwoff!''
ThreeAtwo-one-just one old
wormy chestnut to strengthen me till l
can git to the bank"'
Her face broadened and heightened
with motherly benevolence as she
reached down for a club. When she
rose up he stood in the middle of the
street. his tongue run out and his nose
wrinkled up.
"G'longe' she called, Is she waved
the club.
He advanced till he was just out of
reach of her weapon, and pointing his
dirty finger at her nose he slowly said:
II win go, my Lord, will 60, kase
see peeler down on the corner; but
I'll foller you home this noon, and I'll
pizen your dog, and I'll put tar on the
door, and I'll stone your cat, and if you
have any cabbages in the backyard I'll
rend them limb from limb! You have
scorned an orphan! You have sot there
unmoved! Your blood be upon your
own head-farewellr
The officer got there two hundred feet
behind the boy; but he was not too late

Interest Realized Upon Invest.
mentS.

The great question of the day with
financial managers and capitalists is,
How shall we invest our capital
In order that we may realize a
good rate of interest with safety ,
Railroad stocks and bonds have
proven to be as class very unreliable,
Government bonds, considering the pres
ent premium, yield but low rate of in
terest. Investments in business enter
prlses or IN real estate. by reason of the
snrinkage in values, have on the average
produced no returns hut loss.
Upon an examination OF the last an.
nuaL report OF one of the largest finan-
cial institutions of this city, namely. the
Union Central Life Insurance Com
pany, and its report is well worthy of an
examination by all fnanciers, we find
at the commencement of last wear the
net assets OF the Company were
81, 1O6,9l5 O4. During the year, ,1S76 (see
page OF tenth annual reuort
OF Secretary Harris) the amount OF in
terest received and increase in amount
of accrued interest was $8l, ,9SI 35, being
4-l0 per cent. upon the total amount OF
the net assets OF the Company. The
amount of the reserve fund required by
the State law to be held January l, 1876,
was $oo2,6 Average rate of interest
reallzea thereon, 2-lO per cent.
This is remarkable rate OF interest
to be realized, especially in these times
hence our reference TO the facts in de-
tail. The secret Of this result is found
in the financial management of the COM
pany, which confines It's Investments al
most exclusively to mortgages upon
farm property. At the present time the
Union Central has nearly 5000 900 of this
class of Investments. It's rules REQUIRE
that the value OF the ground estimated
at Sheritl's sale for cash, exclusive of
buildings, shall be at least double the
amount OF the loan.
The shrinkage in values has not been
sufficient to affect this class OF securI-
ties, and the result shows that the plan
adopted by the Union Central is not on
ly the safest but the most productive ana
beneficial to our State. 1t invests its
funds among the mass of our producing
citizens.
