Po oETRY
JOSEPH, THE NEE pERcE.

From the northern desolation
Comes cry of exultation!
:" 1t is ended. He has yielded. And the stubbor
| fight is won!"
| Let the nation in its glory
| Bow with shame be fore the story
Ot the hero it has ruined and the evil il has dome
How he prayed while hope remained.
Though the white mans hands were stained
with the blood that cried for vengeance of his mur
dered kin and clah,
For the home the good God gave him,
For the treaty sworn to save him,
For the shelter Of his children for the right to be
man.
Then the troops began to hound him.
And he wrapped his blanket round him,
ana ne called his braves to follow and he smote
them hip and thigh.
But the hosts grew vast and vastcr
And the whirlwnd of disaster
Drove him ont into the mountains and beneath an
alien sky.
Through the continental ridges
Over tottering torrent bridges
BY the verge of back abysses in the shade of mount
aims hoar;
Herds and wiYes and children bearing,
Months he journeyed, toiling, daring.
With an army trailed behind him and another
crouched before.
Thrice the sudden blow descended
Roar and fash and clashing blended:
Twice his rearguaid faced and checked them till the
hunted tribe were free
a. Once he reeled, but swiftly rallied,
Forth upon the spoilers sailed,
Drove them headong into shelter captured all their
cannonry.
But the mountains could shield him,
And the snowy heights revealed him,
And the false friends would not aid him. and his goal
was far away;
Burdened by his weak and wounded.
Stripped and harred and surrounded,
still the Chieftan of the Northand, like lion, stood
at bay.
From the freedom that he sought for,
From the dear land that he fought for
lie Is riven BY nation that has apurned its pshted
word
By the Christians who have given
To the Neutrality-suspicious. Heayen.-
With the one hand theft and faseheod with the other

THE EPIDEMIC OF DRUNKENNEss.-
Drunkenness has been by many believed to
be on the increase, at any rate in higher
circles. It is curious to note that just $50
years ago an epidemic of drunkenness
seemed to break out in England. The pas
sion for gin drinking had got hold of the
masses, and the result was in London, at
least, that increase in the population was
almost wholly checked. Before gin became
popular the consumption of beer was enor-
nous. Almost third of the arabic land
in the country was devoted to barley. In
1858, with a population of 5000, coo, very
near 12, 500, 900 barrels of beer were brew
ed. Up to this time our distilleries were
very insignificant, and French brandies
were far too dear for the masses. But
hatred to France led to the encouragement
of home distilling; the trade was thrown
open, and in 1889 the importation of foreign
spirits was absolutely prohibited. Then
gin-drinking began, and in 1875 the British
distilleries manufactured nearly 100000
gallons. Gin-cellars, where men could ''get
drunk for a penny, dead drunk for two
| pence, and have straw for nothing" )"
abounded. Hogarth's "Beer Street - is
bad enough, but his "Gin Lane" is so
horrible that, but for contemporary descrip-
tions, we should deem it an exaggeratien.
Legislation endeavored to check the evil,
but laying on heavy duty merely produced
great deal of illicit distilling. The con.
sumption arose to more than 1000, 000
gallons, and Fielding prophesied that " il
the drinking of this poison is continued at
its present height for the next twenty years
there will be very few of the common peo.
pie left to drink t."-London Quarterly
Reoieao.

ONE OF NATURES FREAKs.-During the
past four years number Of small oysters
have been noticed adhering to the rocks in
and about the coyes and shores of Buzz
yards Bay, where none were ever known
before to exist. This has been more espec-
tally marked at the mouths of fresh water
streams, between this harbor and Ware
ham, in some of which the increase has
been such that now peck or more of them
are as easily obtained as the same number
of CLANS. Where the oysters came from, or
what has caused them to appear here and
propagate, is mystery that cannot be sat-
isfactorily accounted for by fishermen, mar
ketmen, or any one supposed to know the
habits and nature of the bivalve. Some
are inclined to the belief that during the
season the plant is brought down the bay
from Waredam and vicinity by the action
of the tides and landed upon the shores
hereabouts, while others are inclined to the
belief that large bed of native oysters ex-
lists somewhere within or near to the bay.
and will ultimately make the flats here
abouts productive with its superfuous seed.

EsTiTEs FOR UNkNOWN HEIRS.
How Efforts have been Made 10 Obtain Them
by False Personations. =

Several attempts have been made by
swndlers or confidence men 10 get some OF the
many thousand dollars that the Public Admin
istraior has paid into the city treasury. This
money comes from the estates Of deceased per-
sons whose heirs cannot be found and is held
until some one proves his right as heir. Many
such heirs are found by the foreign Consuls
living here. but there always remain many
estates from $500 to 1000 awaiting distrihu-
ton. Four persons were committed yesterday
by Recorder IIacketi. they having been charged
with conspiracy 10 obtain an estate by false per-
sonation. and It's believed that well organized
and nearly successful scheme for obtaining
estates hns thus been broken up.
