Indian Police on Active Duty.

OK Thursday of last week West
Pierre was visited by Col. Gardner,
Chief Inspector of all the Indian agen-
cics. The Colonel is man that looks az
ter the morals of Uncle Sans wards,
and if there is anything going on that Is
not according to hoyle he is sure to lind
it out.
The Colonel came there not alone, for
he was accompanied by twenty Indian
police, armed with rifles and reyolvers;
and soon after they arrived he procured
axes and marched his forces to a mouse
where they have been selling whisky on
the sly. The Colonel gave the order
and his soldiers went to work, and IN a
short time razed that building and de-
molished everything in it. He told the
proprietor to get off the reservatlon' ana
he stood not upon the order OF his gong
but crossed the river.
He then called on Fishell, Sol Blooms
agent, and told him that the house III
was occupying belonged to Kent, o
Yankton, and that Kent was IN inter
lorer and had no business on the reser
walton, and told Fishell to pay him NJ
more rent. -
He said the Interior Department per

An old man in Xenia, o., killed
himself few days ago because he had
sold his farm. Until recently Jesse Il.
Marshall had been a large Landowner
in the western part Of the county, and
last February he sold the old home
stead, where he had lived from child
hood, to William Moore, with the inten'
ton Of removing with his family to the
South or West. During the summer he
made two trips, but found no place to
his liking, and returned very much dis
couraged and seemed to deplore the tact
that he had parted with the "old home. ;,
After the sale of the farm he moved
with his family to town, where they have
since lived, and since his return from
the West, utterly discouraged with hi
prospects, he seemed to be more ane
more unhappy about parting with tn
old farm. He became subject to melan
choly moods, and at times the famil!
feared that he might become hopeless
" insane. In the end he shot himself

We have never seen Il finer bit of
sarcasm than the following from one of
our town papers:
A little Shelbyvie hoy who is in the habit of
saying his prayers before going to bed, the other
night asked his mother: Mamma, how long will
il he before I'm big enough Ia quit saying my
prayers You never say yours, do yOuf' And the
mother said Little boss shouldn't ask many
questions. Go t" sleep, my child"
But what makes the sarcasm more
sad and caustic, it would apply to Il
vast multitude of mothers and fathers
and big brothers too. who have long
since ''graduatcdn from Sunday school
and church, and never attend except
as visitors" or spectators of some sen
sation or performance" that is likely
to attract crowd. And as to saying
their prayers OF howing their heads in
thanks at meat, why, this is about as
rare as Old-fashioncd brcad-and- milk
for supper. Strong men, ''smart"
young men, some professional" men,
and fashionable women, seem to act us
if such forms of picty were only be
coming to Sickly little girls and grand
mothers in thciI;dotagc.-IT. l.. Douth-

Frightened Horses.

A man who has had much experience
in managing frightened horses says ::
whenever nervous horsemen notice
their horse directing his ear to any
point whatever, OF indicating the
slightest disposition to become afraid,
let them instead of pulling the reins to
to bring the horse toward the object
causing its nervousness, pull it on the
other side. This will instantly divert
the attention of the horse from the OBJ
ject which is exciting his suspicion, and
in ninety mine cases out of hundred
the horse will pay no more attention
to the object, from which he will fly
away if forcibly driven to it by pulling
on the wrong rein. The practice most
persons have Of forcing horse up to
the object frightening it is dangerous
and useless

Thou Art Beloved.

"Thou art greatly beloved" said Ga
bricl, as, flying swiftly from Paradise,
he saluted Daniel at Babylon. Deeply
affecting to Daniel must have been
such "A message. Ii was the salutation
of one of Gods great angels, belonging
to one of those mighty 'principalities
III the heavenly places" How majes-
tic was his appearance, how celestial
his voice, how heavenly his cOunte-
nance. how fragrant and glorious his
presence, as he spoke To Daniel those
most beautiful words They were
words of love from heaven. No earth
" message that. whispered III the ear
from the homes and palaces of the
great, the lovely, OF illustrious of this
world. They spoke of interest and af-
lection far away for one of the weep
ing pilgrims of this planet. 1t is eX-
ccllcnt to Ice beloved by people near
and around us. II is a capital charm
of this world; and to dwell amid such
an atmosphere is rs if we were living
and breathing in some hOlicr cline
but to bc beloved greatly belovcd-in
heaven, seems more than excellent.
Child, is thy poor name ever mentioned
there? Is there any thought of thee
amid those circles of the blessed
Who may they he in that better land
that remember and love thee They
are many. Each lOwly disciple ON
earth has IA multitude of lovers i'll
heaven Some of his kindred are
there, and they love him with a love
richer and purcr far than when with
him here. Angels, in number greater
or less, know him by name, and have
been often near him to watch and
teach him, to guard him on occasions
of temptation and danger, and, in one
and another way, to prOtfcr their sweet
and silent ministries. And Jesus is in
heaven, who loves each of his little
ones here on earth-lovcs them with
an everlasting love, ever living, ever
glowing, and ever issuing in ccaseless
interccssions in their behalf. And our
Father is thcrc-hc who $50 loved the
world,n whose love to such as love him
is such '.manner of love" as is utterly
inconccivablc by finite intclligcnccs.
Thus in that world of love, the wise
and faithful Daniel was greatly beloved
even while on earth; so are all others
who are of Il like spirit and manner of
life ZiOn's Herald.

Poultry Manure.

Poultry manure is by far the most
valuable fertilizer produced on farms.
Fowls eat concentrated food that is
rich in nitrogen and phosphorus, and
their droppings partake of the nature
of the food they deVOur. Grain, the
seeds of small plants, meat, and in
sccts produce, when decompOSed by
the action of the digestive apparatus,
richer fertilizing material than grass,
hay, and straw. Besides, birds void
their urine in solid form, and com
bined with the eXcrement, that is usu-
ally solid. As il consequence it is not
liable to he wasted if the manure is
rightly cared for. Poultry manure is
about as valuable as the best Peruvian
guanO. To make it of the highest
value as a fertilizer, however, it must
he stored, and applied to the ground
with care. Exposed to the weather it
will he dissolved by rain and carried
off. Placed in large heaps it heats, and
the ammonia is driven off and lost.
Applied to the soil in too liberal guam
titles, especially when fresh, it is liza
bile to destroy the vitality of seeds and
10 kill delicate plants. 1t should be
stored i'll Il dry place and i'll compare
lively small lots, so it will not he in
.jurcd by moisture and will not fcrmcnt.
1t is better to mix it with dried peat,
road dust, OF some other substance that
will aid in keeping it dry and tend to
arrest fermentation. The best results
attend its use when it is well beaten
up and very thoroughly mixed with
these substances before it is applied to
the soil. Lime and ashes should be
kept from it, as they would act upon
it i'll such IA manner us to liberatc am

The Father in the Family.

1t was n precious characteristic of
the Oldcn times that the father was al
most always to he found at home. He
abode in the circle of his family, and
was priest of God in the same. Dur
ing the day he pursued his calling, and
mt evening was found among his own.
There he exercised his priesthood. He
brought up his children in the fear of
the Lord.
But where now are the fathers in the
evening? We certainly can find always
one family in four in which the father
spends his evenings away from home.
lie must spend some hours away from
home; the quiet circle is not lively and
diversified enough he must he in so
cicty. More we will not say. But we
will not conceal the fact that the father
thereby dcprivcs his family of their
best friend. and the home of its orderly
discipline. For if the father thus go
ont, then will also the half of the full
grown sons and daughters, and the
mother also. At last every one will go
his own way Ahlfcld.
The man who turns away from that
narrow construction of duty which is
prompted by scltishncss. and trusts in
the Lord with all his heart, who re-
CARDS first and chiefly the teachings
and commandments of God-such II
man may get into places of annoyance.
and difficulty, and danger he may I'M
dergo trials and hardships, and endure
much personal suffering but under the
overriding power of divine grace,
those difficulties, dangers and hardshipS
will irladiatc his character with glory
which it could not possibly have at
tanned in a life unmarked by suffering.
Here's bit of temperance sermon
from the New York Herald: -Four
fifths of the five thousand bodies that
reach the Morgue in this city every year
are fruits of drunkenness. The Jolly
fellows who make fun of the anti-liquor
agitation, rs they stand ut bars and
drink good old whiskey-for of course
no other kind Is sold-know only the
beginnings of what rum can do; but
the rough pine boxes. filled with what
was once clear headed, bright eyed hu-
manity, are Just as directly the work
of drink as bar-roOm fun is. There
may he cities in the world where men
can drink spirits without injury tn
body and brain, but New York is not
one of them. In city where every
body, from the millionaire to the day
laborer, is being continually compelled
TO begin more work than he can finish,
whatever increases physical or mental
excitement is positive curse. The
MOrgue's occupants do not all come
