Indian Children. /.

Although Indian children have theit
games and good times as well as their
more civilized brothers and sisters, they
also have much hard work to do, and
are taught to help their poor tired motha
ers almost as soon as they learn to walk.
One Of the principal duties Of Indian
children is that of supplying their camp
or village with water. These camps are
always near river or stresm, for, OF
course, wandering tribes Of Indians can
not have wells OF. cisterns, and from the
river the children must carry up to the
lodges all the water used in cooking. In
this work they call to their aid their
playmates, the dogs, always plentiful in
Indian villages. To the collars ofsthe
dogs are fastened two long light poles,
one on each side, that drag on the
ground some distance behind them. On
these poles, about half way to the
ground, is fixed the kettle or earthen lar
that is to be filled with water, ana then
the dogs are driven down to the river.
Some Of the larger boys have ponies, to
which they attach heavier poles IN the
same way that the light ones are fasten.
ed to the dogs, and on which they can
carry as much as barrel Of water at q
time. At the river side the children
have great fun while filing their various
Jars and kettles; they duck and splash
each other, run, scream, laugh, and OF.
ten forget entirely that the village ~is
waiting for it's daily supply OF water.
until the shrill voice OF some saaaw
mother warns them that thev ave neg
lecting their duty, and II they do not
attend to IL at once they will have to
suffer the consequences.

Ohio Fish Law.

The following is the substance of the
Ohio Fish Law:

Let Of June to the 1st of September.
The fine goes into the Common School

sage of fish. When he does not do
SO, such passage may be made at his ex.
pense. Fishing by seine or net, or in
any other way than by hook and line
except in the Mercer County Reservoir
Laramie Reservoir in Shelby County
and Lake Erie. The penalty is from
$40 to $50, or Imprisonment from ter
to sixty days. Fishing Of any sort
except 10 bodies OF water containing 81
much as thousand acres, is prohibited
during the spawning season from Apr
list to June Is. @

IngersOll as an Object of Divine
Contempt.

We remember when poor Tom Rob.
ertson, the playwright, was in a mood
similar to that of Bob Ingersoll. Riches
and fame had come to him too late, when
he had lost the capacity for enjoying
them, and he was dying, although be
did not knew it then, of frightful
disease. Like Ingersoll, he sought to
ridicule the Almighty, and he vauntingly
asked why he.. who had always denoun-
ced Jehovah, was wealthy, famous and
unharmed, when, if God really existed,
be would have punished such an unbe-
lever long ago. Turning to the talented
scoffer, a bystander name Barton-the
DR.. johnson Of the club in which this
incident occurred-sententiously observ-
ed, "You forget, Mr.. Robertson, that
the Almighty is capable of infinite con-
tempt, as we'll as OF in6uite justice. !"
Poor Tom Robertson scoffed no more,
that day. aud we fancy that Bob Inger-
soil may find moral in this reply when
he again attempts to "Down with Jeho-

A Foolish Mistake.

Don't make the mistake OF confouud-

with the numerous quack medicines that
are now so common. We speak from
experience when we say that Parker's
Ginger Tonic is a sterling health resto-
rative, and will do all that is claimed for
lit. We have used it ourselves with the
happiest results for Rheumatism and
when worn out by overwork. See adv

HWeve got YOU, gentlemen, pe

y =
ocrats, on the liquor tax issue. You de-
feated the Pond bill as Democrats-as
party men. The few Republicans who
voted against the bill did not oppose it
as Republicans, but as Individuals
Ohio State Journal
That dodge has been tried to be forced,
and it don't work worth cent. The
distinction you try to make is too fine,
and the people can't see it. The tenn
perance people don't give copper
whether the "few Republicans" who de-
feated temperance legislation did SO "as
individuals" or otherwise The point oi
the matter is here The Republican par
ty made the issue that it would pass some
kind OF liquor law. The Republican
party in the Legislature had it in it's
fpower to pass that law or any law. II
had q Constitutional majority. The
Democratic party was under no obliga
tions to help you pass that law or any
law. 1t was your own promise that you
would pass it, it is your own fault tha
Iyou did not pass 1t. The people under
stand that, and no ingenious sophistry
about ''individual action" will blind theil
eyes to the truth. Through it all the
facts shine forth undeniable and unde'
MED that no action OF the Democrats
could have prevented the passage of The
law if the Republicans had desired &C
pass it. 1t is all paltering nonsense te
talk about the Democrats defeating th'
bill, when the Democrats were in mi
nority. A majority can do as it please'
and it is an accepted truth that for what
ever action legislative body takes, tn
majority must stand responsible. Th
Republicans promised to pass a temper
an:e law; there was no power any wher
to prevent them from passing law
they wanted to pass it. These are prop
ositions that cannot be gainsaid. Why
then. did they not pass the lawa-Cleos
land Plaindealsr.

trv in the following than in all simils
efforts he had ever read.
live for those who love me,
For those know are true;
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And waits my spirit too;
For human ties that bind me,
For the task my God assigned me,
For the bright hopes left behind me,
And the good that I can do.
/ live to learn the story,
Who'ye suffered for my sake,
To emulate their glory, @
And follow in their wake;
Bards, martyrs, patriots, sages,
The mobiles of all ages,
Whose deeds crown history's pages.
And times great volume make.
live to hail that season
By gifted minds untold.
When men shall live by reason
And not alone for gold;
When man to man united,
And every wrong thus righted;
Tho whole world shall be lighted
A Eden was of old.
I love to hold communion
With all that is divine,
To feel that there is union
Twixt natures heart and mine;
To profit by afliotion,
Reap truth from fields Of fiction,
Grow wiser from conviction
Fulfilling Gods d esign.
live for those that love me,
For those that know me true,
For the heaven that smiles above me,
And waits my spirit too;
For the wrongs that need resistance,
For the cause that needs assistance,
For the future in the distance,
And the;good that can do.

Major d. l.. James,

We were pleased to welcome the in
trepid Major in our sanctum, on We'd
nesday morning. He has just returned
from trip to Europe, which had been
necessitated by his impaired health. He
looks as sound as be ever was. He told
us that no had made every arrangement
with staunch firm of Eastern Manu-
facturers to start the Cotton Factory, at
the PeniteDtiary on or about January
first We are anxious to see this enter
prise put in operation, as it's success will
doubtless induce many more to be estab-
lished in our city and State. If manu-
factures can be added to agriculture,
Louisiana will boom ahead of her South
ern Sisters in a very short time. Tn
Major is a liberal, public-spirited cia
zen, whose only great fault is that he
isn't worth $40, 600.

'poUND CAKE" LIFTED. p.--On Wednes-
day, Aaron johnson alias Pound Cake,
was ierked up before the Mayors Court.
He is the "buck rabbit or race horse
that has pranced around the police for
many months past There was q long
file of witnesses, of both sexes, whom
.'Pound Cake" had hit with sticks, and
siSillets, after which occurrences he had
'dusted" from the police who had never
been able to catch him, until the other
night when they cornered him bychance.
He started to run away from the Chief
and an assistant, but unsuspectingly ran
into the outstretched arms of Mr..
Andrew Fincll, the young gunsmith, who
is an ordinance department within him
self, who happened to be acting as an
officer. Mr.. Finck, as can well be i'm
agined closed down on Pound Cake,
who was at last brought TO jail to an
swer for his many offenses. The Mayor,
seemed glad to see him and after a short
examination unloaded on him the whole
City Charter. 1t was SO seldom that he
had the pleasure sf seeing Pound Cake,
that he would retain him as long as he
could. Pound Cake was jailed for TWEEN
ty days and fifty dollars. Having made
arrangements to pay his fine, the matter
was compromised and Pound Cake sci
at large, somewhat wiser, it is hoped.
