A Friend in Need.

A Galveston saloon.keeper had a new sign. "Wines and Liquors,' ) painted over the front door of his establishment. An old hummer, Colonel Hammer by name, came along and after squinting at the sign critically for a while, said to the painter who was just putting on the finishing touches: Il say, has the boss seen that sign yet?''
 "I believe not, Colonel
 "You haven't got your money for painting it, have you""
 "Not yet"
 Colonel Hummer got up closer and whispered mysteriOusly in the artists ear: elf he sees it he wont pay you for it. L-i-c-k-e-r is the right way to spell it."
 "It's too late now, Colonel," said the artist smiling.
 "No 'taint. Let's go in before he sees it and drink it out. Pll help you" ."-Galveston News.

Skin Grating from the Dead.

Dr J. H. Girdner, house sur geOn of the Bellevue Hospital. has obtained some remarkable and valuable results in skin graft ing during the past year. One patient who required such treat ment refused to furnish grafts from his own arms or body. owing 10 the pain involved; and, un- willing to ask another to subject himself to a pain which the per son to be benefited was unwilling to submit 10, Dr. Girdner tried the experiment of taking skin gratis from a corpse. The doctor says:
 II cut a piece of skin from a patient who died in the wards a few hours before, first taking care to inquire whether tlle cause of death was due to poisonous dis ease or not. I then cut the cuti.

Since that time 1 have treated upward of fifty cases with invariable suc- cess. l have grafted the skin of an Irishman on a negro, and 1 have grafted the skin of negro on an Irishman with ease.

The American Girl.
American,

The defects of the American
 girl may be done away with by
 giving less prominence to the
 purely intellectual or purely prac- tical side of her education. For
 while one class of men is striving
 to solve the problems of life by educating women Intellectually,
 there is another class which is
 shouting for education in d0mes-
 tic matters. While the professors at Harvard are rejoicing over some girl who can take in their
 philosophies or their mathemat- ics, the newspaper editor sings
 the praises of her who can roast a turkey, bake bread or make her own dresses. Neither gives the
 poor girl any chance to exist, but only to work, whether hand or
 brain. No one says to her: "You are not only yourself, but possibly the future mother of other be- ings. Do not, therefore, allow yourself to be driven by either school of apostles beyond what you may do easily, comfortably, or pleasurably. The healthy bal ance of your nervous system is far more important 10 you and your future family relations than all the mathematics or dressmak- ing, or even roasting of turkeys. Occupy yourself steadily, but without strain, without harry, and without emulation. AS the apostle said (and it must have been meant expressly for Ameri. cans), avoid emulation.' Find out first what you can best do, and even if it does not come up to somebody else's standard, learn to content yourself with that"

The Irish Land Question.

Again begins to be raised the cry of a Fenian organization in Ireland. It comes announced as heinz engrafted upon the Land Question in Ireland, which has caused so much excitement throughout Ireland as we'll as elsewhere. Under the claim of individual proprietary cultivation Of the soil, the ownership of the land to be In possession of those who cultivate, it is reported, but with how much or how little truth ono cannot we'll ascertain, that the old Fenianism is found linked with the land question. It is said that it is this which gives the land agitation its most effective organiz !tion and fOrmld- able character. It appeals to the
 natural instincts of the Irish peasantry, for it indicates pur- pose to appeal to force, which no Irishman can feel or be indiffer- ent about, especially when any thing English is the object of attention. It is reasonable to be- leive, therefore, that the peasant ry have accepted the proposition to appeal to arms, if necessary, 10 achieve what they desire ana

In as few words as possible I stated to the first gentleman I met, the object of my visit. He wore q long beard, and had evidently not washed, and appeared of taci' turn disposition. I told him I should like to know his age and that of his wife and family; that he would oblige mo exceedingly by telling me where he was born, and by giving me oth CT necessary information. I stood with pen poised to put down the names. Then he spoke: "Me Russkl-no spike English" I felt little discouraged.

Turkeys New Trouble.

Turkey has another flea to per.
 sue. She has had a good deal of
 this kind of political trouble for a long time past. She has had a vast amount of scratching; and if she remains as stubborn as here- tefore, she will have something
 more than scratching to attend to. The cause of the itching now is the report that Prince Alexander of Bulgaria has made a pr0posi-
 ton, intended to be a secret for some time, but which the Sultan has been informed of, to unite portion of Eastern Roume ella to
 Bulgaria, the other portion to be- long to Turkey. Prince Alexan. der is evidently alive 10 the fact that Turkey bids fair soon to pre- sent dissolving views, and like a burned out star or meteor, about ready to disappear as European
 Power. he proposes to get his share of the spells. But it is doubtful whether the Great Pow CTS will agree to gratify the Prince'sambi;ious plans, although it is reported that one of the two two Powers 10 which he had sub- his proposition had ap.. proved it. Turkey is like a stag with a pack of hun. gry dogs snapping and gnawing at his trembling limos. They will bring him down at last. His the Prophet and Koran, can scarcely save him. He is like Mazeppa-bOuDd to his destiny with the whole pack of wolves at his heels.-CAlta

Ladies as "Sportsmen."

The early history of our coun- try abounds in instances of brave and noble women, who possessed great skill in the use of firearlns. and who, when occasion required, their own inclinatiOns prompted, could take down inc rife or the bowling piece, repair to the woods and return we'll laden with game. Many Of them became such mas- ters of the rife that with it they would stop the swiftly bounding buck, as he sped through the forest. or in case of Indian out breaks, which were then so ire quent, they would take their po- sitions by the side of their hus' bands, brothers, and sons and teach the marauding savages that not to men alone belonged all the prowess in the use of this deadly weapon. Instances of similar heroism are not wanting in our own day on the frontier. We will remember the thrilling ac- count of the two women, who, during the great Sioux massacre in Minnesota, in 1862, biavely stool at the loop-holes of their log cabin a whole day and night after their husbands had been shot down, and whose unerring aim caused many a savage to bite the dust ere they were finally overpowered and taken.
 We frequently read of women on the frontier who perform deeds of skill and daring in the use of arms that challenge the admira- tion of every man. Only last Fall, young lady, a daughter of one of our military officers, was visiting her father at his post in one of the nor western territo. ries. One morning her horse, saddlad and standing in front of her fathers lent, awaiting her to take her usual morning ride, ] when 8 large elk was seen tc

 that they have been and are be-
 ing drilled and trained to move in
 military order, and that they un- derstand how to act together as. disciplined bodies, and that every opportunity is taken to collect arms. This may all be true, and much more. But when one rec ollects the miserable outcome of the Smith-O'Brien uprising and the "Slevegammon" battle and results, Lot much hope of relief through force can be anticipated.

Very Cheeky.

4 "cheeky" act has been re- corded and sent on from Wash. ington by telegraph. An ex-Con- federate who chanced to get wounded in the year 1864, while engaged in the highly patriotic act of trying to break up our Union and setting afoat a Confed- eracy founded according to the expressed opinion of Alexander Ii. Stephens, upon the corner stone of human slavery; has sent on and had recorded his applica. tion for a pension. Without sex' planation, and the telegraph gives none,this act of the one.legged, or one.armed ,or one-idead Confeder- ate, appears exceedingly iudici- rous. Perhaps had Booth escaped the bullet of Corporal Boston and lived 10 this day, he would have nut in his claim for his doctors bill for setting and splintering the lep he broke when he jumped from the opera box after having assassinated the President. In these days of sublime cheek, one does not know to what extent may go. This Wound- ed Confederate perhaps thinks himself Ca bigger man than old And who shall say that he may no. live 10 see the day when our forgiving people and Government. will call in all the ate Confederates 5 and say to them such of you as felt the bit Ing of Union bullets, present. your checks upon the Union Treasury and they shall be hon- 'red.

 mile distant, and start across {
 wide stretch of prairie, closely
 persued by dogs. The young
 Diana seizing her fathers revol
 yer sprang into the saddle and
 darted away at full speed in pur
 suit of the fleet and fleeing ami
 mal. Rider and game both soon disappeared over the hills, the
 former, however, rapidly gaining on the latter. Several officers mounted and started in pursuit to witness the exciting chase. In a minute two shots were heard in rapid succession. The f1eet-footed steed had outstriped the dogs and carried the fair Diana along side the fleeing elk, when, with a couple of we'll directed shots from her revolver, she had lain the monarch of the forest at her feet. Threafter she was the heroine, the idol of the camp, the admired of all admirers.
 A few years ago while hunting deer in the Mississippi river bot. toms in Arkansas, we had the pleasure of meeting two ladies, who were excellent rife shots and passionately fond of field sports. One. middle-aged lady, the the mother of an interesting fam fly of children. She had an old. fashioned, long barrel muzzIe. loading rifle with which she fre- quently secured bag of squirrels, pigeons or cartridges, and with which she had, short tiae before, killed a large black bear that visited the farm house in quest of fresh meat. She rarely missed shot. The other was a young lady scarcely twenty years old. She had a light breech-load. ing rifle, in the use of which she displayed great skill. Sh, was very successful in still.hunting deer. She showed Us several fine sets of antlers taken from bucks that had fallen victims 10 her prowess. Several young men in the neighborhood sighed sugges- lively as they described to Us her beauty, her accomplishments as lady, and her "taking" ways, both on the trail and at the fire side. She was also very fond of fishing, and would handle log canoe as skillfulIy as any Indian. She would push through dense thIckets of water hazel, over logs and through driftwood, where many men of long experience in water craft would deem it impos- sible to go.
 We believe the time will soon come when large numbers of the best and most accomplished ladies in the country will take a great interest in field sports, especially trap and target shooting, and be- come as successful in them as men now are, all of which must inure to the benefit of field sports, as a good woman elevates and re- fines all amusementS she partici- pates in.-[Chicago Field.
