Point OF War.

Captain Bob Agttated mp TO the
Point of War.
From the Virginia Chronicle.
The Austin Reveille has been saying
some hard things about Naches, Chief
of the Piutes. It writes him up as q
sort of Henry Ward Beecher, who goes
about the country endeavoring to re.
form the moral status of his tribe and
punish bigamists and whisky drinkers,
while he himself lives with five ssuaws
and is in a state of alcoholic excite
ment most of the time. Captain Bob
is considerably agtated over these re-
ports, and thinks of starting an expe-
dition Quito find the man who wrote
these ISLANDERS on old Naches, who is
considered a moral Christian gentle
man by his tribe and an ornament to
Piute society. Bob accuses the Austin
Piutes with originating these lies. and
talks of war. When Piute starts out
to defend the character OF friend he
never feels content with less than elk
scalps. He doesn't care snap for
arbitration; he wants blood.

There are at Enfield three .commun-

Besides the crrses, all which are
uttered in anger, the mountaineers
have number Of. mi1der imprecatory
expressions which they use merely to
give additional force or emphasis to a
statement. A man., for instance, will
exclaim to another. oh, may your moth
or die! what superb horse you have
therei" or "May I eat all your dis
eases il I didn't pay twenty-five abas for
that kirya! dagger in TiAisy'
The curious expression, "May your
mother diel" however malevolent it may
seem to Occidental ears, has in the Can.
casus no offensive significance. It is .
mere rhetorical exclamation point to
express establishment or to fortify du-
bious statement.
The graphic curse, "May I eat all
your diseAses?" is precisely analogous
to the American boys ~ hope to die. ..
Generally speaking, the mountaineer
use angry imprecations and personal
abuse Of all kinds sparingly. Instead
Of standing and cursing one another
like enraged Billingsgate Ash.womsn,
they promptly ont the Gordisn knot Of
their misunderstanding with their long
double-edged daggers, and presently
ono Of them 10 carried away on . lad.
der. When, - . Caucasian proverb
asserts, "It is only step from the bad
word to the kinjal," even an angry man
10 apt 10 think twice before he curses
once. -LppiacoN.

Wild Horses in Kansas.

II is . we'll known fact that from time
immemorial herds Of wild horses have
roamed over the plains Of southwestern
Kansas. Their origin no man knows.
It may date to the early Spanish CON-
quest OF the country. It has been ex-
ceedingly difficult to capture them, the
method pursued having been to run
down and lasso them with Aeet horses.
Latterly however it has been found
that they can be captured in heards.
The method 10, to get up an outfit Of .
fast walking team on wagon carrying
provisions, and camp supplies, and
three or four riding ponies ami az many
men. When q heard is founG they are
kept moving, no effort being made to
drive them in any direction. The team
and ponies are net driven any faster
than walk, and every opportunity is
embraced Of cutting across to save dis
lance. The wild horses are kept in
motion until dark, being given no op-
portunity to graxe during tho day. At
night they are too tired to Craze and
will lie down.
The pursuers camp, feed their horses
from grain which they carry with
them. and are up by day light. have
breakfast and start again. This 10 kept
up day after day. Every day takes

Adjournment of the House of Lords to
May 18th, and the House of Conn
mons TO May 9th.

LONDON, April l6. In the commons this after
noon, Nonhcote moved adjournment of the house
at their rising to-day, until 9th of May.
Wilfried Lawson, radical, criticised this step in
view of the serious crisis.
Henry Faucet, liberal moved an amendment
providing for an adjournment to the 29lh inst
Northcote deprecated this proceeding, which
he said, would alarm the world
William +. Forster supported NoIthcote's mo-
ton, and said he and his colleagues thought that
if government was pursuing q war policy they
would have acted otherwise.
Faucetts amendment was rejected by vote of
yeas TO- nays l6S, and the motion for ad oura
