Minnesota Indians.

This State has 6,157 Indians, of whom
2,913 wear citizens dress, 765 are agriculture
lists, and 335 are engaged in other civil pur-
suits.
The Minnesota tribes are divided into the
following bands:

The Minnesota Indians have three day
schools and three boarding schools. The av-
erage daily attendance of scholars is 1906 The
government expends annually Oh the Mime
sofa schools $500 and the religious societies
500. The number of Indians who have
learned to read within the past year is sixty,
and the whole number who can read in the
various tribes is set down at 4S8. The num-
Der of Indians in the tribes have neither in
creased nor decreased during the past year.
These Indians hold in reserve 4,760, III acres
of land of which 1, 553, 1850 are tillable. Last
year they raised 26, 200 bushels of wheat, 49,
226 bushels of corn, and S,971 bushels of bar
ley. They had $1,000 bushels of vegetables.
They built $3.50 rods of new fence, and cut
800 cords of wood last year. twenty-five of
these Indians are professional fishermen.

The American Horses in England.


By the calendar of acceptances for the spring
handicaps in England, it appears the American
horses have generally remained In. Out of
the lis entries for the Lincoln handicap, 3S
declared out, leaving Peter the top weight at
13l pounds. Of the ii entries for the New
market handicap, II declared. For the
Newmarket international II declared
out of the SO entries, including
Fashion and Westbourne, the two top weights,
which left Lucetta at the head of the list with
100 pounds, and as the top weight must be 124
pounds, the weight on Lucette was raised
pounds, as also were all the others entered for
the race including Wallenstein, who has now
11S pounds, Nereid ia pounds, Mistake Ill
pounds, and Shakespeare 101 pounds. For
The EPSON spring meeting nine declared out
of the Great Metropolitan and sixteen out of
the Great Surry handicap, for which Mr.:
Keene's Spendthrift is the top weight at 12S
pounds. The Prince of Wales stakes lost
eighteen, including four top weights, which
leaves Wallenstein occupying that position at
100 pounds. The City and Suburban lost
twenty-one only out of l08 entries, all the
Americans remaining in, including Uncas at
1O3 pounds, Nereid at 81 pounds, Iroquis,
Seminole at 81 pounds. The Chester cup sui
fers more in proportion than any other race,
10 declaring out of the AZ entries, none OF the
Americans having been entered. For the
Liverpool grand national steeplechase, Is

Stallion.
Col Clark Chambers, in this city, Thursday
last, with the Owatonna delegation urging
the nomination of Dunnell to the vacant
United States senatorship, said his finely bred
trotting stock, of which he has some fifteen
head, old and young, had wintered very nicely.
Several of the youngsters have been broken to
harness this winter, a two-year old by DR..
Herr's Mambrino Patchen, dam by Edwin
Forrest, of them being especially promising.
Though not fully decided it is more
than probable Col. Chambers will this
spring put his Mambrino stallion by
Woodford Mambrino at track work, with the
intention of entering in some of the principal
races in Minnesota this season and perhaps
sending him outside the State for few meet
ings. This stallion, as is known to many, is
very fast but inclined in the past to be I'M
steady, probably as much if not more the
fault of the driver than the horse.

Engineering Work In France.

The railroad now being constructed
from Maroejols to Saint Flour, in the de-
partment OF Loire, In the south of France,
presents one of the most remarkable tri-
umphs of civil engineering that the world
Garabit. Reaching the valley of this
name, the road terminates abruptly on the
edge of a precipice. On tie opposite
side, a distance of ], ,556 6feet-considerably
ever a quarter of a mile-rise the basaltic
promontories of the Contal Mountains.
The valley is sort of colossal chasm, at
the bottom of which flows the river Fruy-
ere. Plans for viaduct across this val
ley were presented by tue young engineer,
NJ. Eiffel, and he was told, as Americans
would say, to ''go ahead" The structure,
now nearly completed, is of iron. The
central arch spans 54l feet (l65 meters),
with an average rise of 90 meters or about
2l8 feet. The rails will be about 402
feet from the surface of the river. Place
the Cathedral of Notre Dame on this
stream and the Column of the Place Ven
dome upon its towers, and there will still
be considerable space above the platform

this arch Is much greater than any in Eu-
rope. Our great bridge at Albany has
four arches. each of lS5 feet span; the La
Sale bridge in Illinois has arches of 160
feet span; those of the Augusta bridge over
the Kennebec are l60 feet, while those OF
the famous New River bridge in West
Virginia are only 27S feet. The height
also of the Garabit Viaduct Is exceptional,
in Europe at least, where from go to 6S
meters is considered the limit of safety for
iron supports; though the great viaduct of
Fribourg, In Switzerland, passes this limit,
being 1915 meters. N. Eiffel has not
overstepped the traditional prejudice, for
the metallic part of his supports is only
81. Is meters, the rest being masonry of the
most solid character; but he maintained
before the European Society of Civil En-.
gineers that he Gould guarantee safety,
with the combinations he uses, to iron sup.
ports 100 meters high. The Garabit Via
duct is exceedingly light for its size, the
central portion representing only 10,5OC
kilogrammes to the running meter, or 6
little over IL tons, while the weight of the
meta for the entire viaduct will not exceed
8, 200 tons.

COUNTY PENNA WEDNESDAY,

arrangement Of the room. They decorate
their walls with beautiful paper and then
hide the beauty behind rows of pictures.
In papering the walls Of an apartment some
definite arrangement should be decided
upon before the paper is placed. Another
outrage on good taste is in selecting wall
paper TO match in color the furniture of a
room. This Is said to be all wrong, as wall
paper should oppose in color the furniture
of room. Contrast in this respect gives
entire harmony.
''Wood paper" Is the name of new
idea. In this the paper Is given thin
veneer of the wood desired, and can be
rolled up like ordinary paper. This paper,
properly applied, gives the walls of room
all the appearance OF being worked in hard
wood. By means OF machinery the manu-
facture of wall paper Is materially fastened.
An ordinary machine will print from 1900
to 5000 rolls per day Of eight-colored
paper, while fifty rolls is a good days
work by hand. The latter process, how
ever, is used on the very finest paper. The
paper after having gone through the vari-
Gus processes described, is run on long
spindles and cut INTO rolls of eight yards
each, packed in bundles of twenty-five rolls
and is then ready for shipment.

Modes of Walking

An ingenious contemporary gives the
following summary of the different modes
of walking adopted by those who go to
and fro upon the earth:
Observing persons move slowly, their
heads move alternately from side to sije
while they occasionally stop and turn
around.
Careful persons lift their feet high and
place them down slowly; pick up some
little obstruction and place it down quickly
by the side of the road.
Calculating persons generally walk with
their hands in their pockets and their
heads slightly inclined.
Modest persons generally step softly for
fear of being observed.
Timid persons often step off the side
walk on meeting another, and always go
around stone instead of stepping over ii.
Wide-awake persons ''toe-out," and
have long swing to their arms, while
their hands move about mlscellaneously.
Careless persons are forever stubbing
their toes.
Lazy persons scrape about loosely with
their heels, and are first On one side of tn,
sidewalk and then on the other.
Very stong minded persons place thei
toes directly in front of them, end have ,
kind of stamp movement

A Parliamentary Boy.

The boy came home chuck-full of par
liamentary tactics. At the dinner table
he moved to reconsider the vote by which
boiled ham was placed on the bill Of fare,
and demanded the ayes and noes on the
question of new pair OF rubber boots and
| a spring velocipece. He hadn't been home
two days before he observed to his mother:
4 move the previous question on that
hunk of maple sugar in the pantry
You can't have it
But must. My motion cuts of all de-
bate, and shall announce the question as
carried in the affirmative
His father suggested the idea of an
hours exercise with the AK, but the boy
called for a general expression Of opinion
and succeeded in passing q vste to recon-
init the question to the Committee on Rules
for amendment. Things went on in this
way for a week, and the old man finally
hod enough of it and felt called upon to
administer, a caution.

takes precedence Of the question itself"
replied the boy. 1 amend as follows:i

Wonderful Memories.

Some examples OF the marvels OF men,
ory would seem entirely incredible hal
they not been gwen to us upon the
highest authority. Cyrus knew the name
of every soldier in his army. 1t is related
of Themistocles that he could call by name
every citizen of Athens, although the num-
Der amounted to twenty thousand. Mithri-
dates, King of Pontus, knew all his eighty
thousand soldiers by their right names.
Scipio knew all the inhabitants of Rome.
Seneca complained of old age because he
could not, as formerly, repeat two thousand
names in the order in which they were read
to him; and he stated that on one occasion,
when at his studies, two hundred uncon-
nected verses having been recited by the
different pupils of his preceptor, he re-
| ing from the last to the first.
| Lord Granville could repeat, from be-
ginning to end, the New Testament in the
original Greek. Cooke, the tragedian. is
said 10 have committed to memory all the
contents of daily newspaper. Racine
could recite all the tragedies of Euripides.
1t is said that George III never forgot
face he once seen, nor a name he had
heard. Mirandola would commit to men,
ory the contents of book 6y reading it
three times. and could frequently repeat
the words backward as well as toward.
Thomas Cranmer committed to memory, In
three months, an entire translation of the
Bible. Euler, the mathematician, could
repeat the 4Eneid. and LiebnItz, when an
old man could recite the whole OF Virgil,
word for word.
1t is said that Bossuet could repeat, not
only the whole Bible, but all Homer, Vir
gil and Horace. besides many other works.
Mozart had wonderful memory of
musical sounds. When only fourteen years
of age, he went to Rome to assist in the
solemnities of Holy Week. Immediately
after his arrival, he went to the SIstine
Chapel, to hear the famous Miserere of
Allegri. Being aware that it was forbid
den TO take or give copy of this renowned
piece of music, Mozart placed himself in
corner and gave the s;ric.est attention to
the music, and On leaving the church
noted down the entire piece. A few days
afterward ne heard it second time, and,
following the music with his own copy in
his hand. satisfied himself of the fidelity
Of his memory. The next day he sang the
Uiserere at a concert, accompanying him.
self on the harpsichord, and the perform
ance produced such a sensation in Rome
that Pope Clement XIV. requested that
this musical prodigy should be presented
| to him at once.

Not long ago Detroit grocer selected a
roll of the choicest butter IN market and
placed 1t at his door with the sign: "Please

two minutes, and after carefully examin-
ing the roll he put bit of it in his mouth,
spat it out in great disgust and said:

can tell it book away"
.ssThen you don't like it,"
"Llke it Why, a pound of that would

The second man lifted up the roll, smelled
all around it, and finally put crumb into
his mouth.
"Pretty fair article, isn't it'" queried
the grocer.
'sWell, yes, though there's trifle too
much lard in it. Not going to keep the
stuff for sale, are your"
''Oh, no.
81 wouldn't, either. Faughl How that
lardy taste sticks to my tongue"
In the course of an hour seven worthy
citizens of acknowledged taste sampled the
butter and turned from it with disgust,
At one time two men almost came to blow
