Let Mr.. Burnham be AppIauded.

Yesterday afternoon Mr.. and Mrs.
Geo. w. Durham, of IA Columbia
Street West, were walking up Wood
ward Avenue, and at the Congress
Street crossing one of those street-corner
oglers of ladies' addressed an insulting
remark to Mrs. Durham. Her husband
of course heard it, but with great self
control he passed on a few doors, left
the lady in friends store and returned
to the place where the incident occur
red. The fellow was still there, leering
at other ladies passing by. Walking up
to him Mr.. Durham quietly said: ''You
have insulted a lady. and am going to
punish you for it. Put up your hands"
The fellow accepted the challenge, and
in about three minutes he was perhaps
the most scientifically pummeled NOR
tai the streets of Detroit have seen in a
generation. Bleeding, limp and help
less, some men loaded him on adray
and carried him off, while Mr.. Burnham
wrapped handkerchief around his
swollen right hand, rejoined Mrs. Burn,
ham and went on his way rs coolly as
if he had not done the community an in
valuable service. His example is emil
nently worthy of emulation. Tom Donor
is the name of the person to whom the
wholesome correction was applied

nave enough to do. with steady feet,
and. eyes on the alert. For OF all the
vast array, OF logs1-and I once saw
Itwenty-four thousand in one drive mot
one goes through the Ss,uice but is
| guided on to it by one or more Of fhe
drivers. They often ride standing oul
the floating logs, conducting this push
ing that, hurrying another, straighten-
| ing. turning and guiding; and just be-
fore the log on which a driver stands
reaches the sluice he springs to another.
Woe to him if his foot should slip. or
his leap fail! He would be crushed
among the logs in the sluice. or dashed
among the rocks in the seething water.
After all the logs are safely sluiced.
the chains of the guards are slipped,
the RATS are broken up. and these,
windlasses and all, follow the logs.
Then the boats are put through the
sIuice. Sometimes when the dam is
high, some of the river-drivcrs GO
through in the boats Ia dangerous
practice, this; for often the bateaux
have gone under ,water,l entirely out OF
sight, to come up below the falls, and
more than once have lives been lost in
this foolhardy feat. n
A boom generally passes from three
to six dams and sometimes takes four
months to reach the mills.
Occasionally the logs become jammed
in the rivers. and must wait for more
water; if this can be supplied from n
lake above, the difficulty is easily
remedied. ..ss-... ,.l,.it ,..if n
In the Spring of 1880, a jam occurred
at Mexico in Maine. The logs were
piled forty feet above the water and
covered an extent of area as large as
an ordinary village. This great jam
attracted many visitors from all parts
of the country until the spring freshets
of the next year could supply thu river
with water sufficient to loose them and
bear them on their way.--Mrs. s. b. c.

Then there will be no more death, nei-
ther SORROW nor crying: sneither shall
there be any more pain. Their ideas
are vague and dim-legends treacher7
GUS as memorg 8 and ! growing fainter
from generation to generation, for their
wise men are without open vision and
their sagamores have neither written
prophecy nor guiding stars.
The view from the top of the mesa is
unspeakably beautiful. Twined among
multitudes of peaks, like tangled rib
bons, are streakings of azure and pur-
pie, beneath which, as we know by ex-
perience, are outspread valleys, broad,
treeless. scorched with a tropic heat,
which at MONDAY seems like quivering
flame. The prehistoric ruins cover
about thirty. acres, and are scattered in
confusion ON the level plateau under the
wind-whipped cedars. Here, until within
a few years, was kept the consecrated
fire burning for centuries-the Monte
yuma fire; but time fails to tell it all.
Another day we will come again, and
hear the fanciful traditions, the misty
old superstitions which hover about the
neglected shrines. They are given with
an opulence of fancy which throws mists
before the eye. In the hush of solitude the
effect of the place is mysterious, and re-
Election drops easily into belief. Few
worshipers now sacrifice in the prime
val temples, where of old they must
have fieo;ked by hundreds, cherishing the
promise of the second coming of Monte
yuma from the pleasant land where the
sun rises. The chiefs crouch with faces
toward the east as the morning star goes
softly out, and the gray dawn melts into
purple and gold, yearning as human
hearts have yearned in all ages, seeking
sign from Heaven. The legend runs
that he who shall first behold the King
in his beauty shall receive some great
favor at his hand. Sometimes they wait
in silence; again they chant a hymn to
their god, watching till he shakes his
''plumes of fire. above the mountain
tops and shoots his radiant spears across
the roseate sky. But the oracles are
dumb. Well are they keeping the mighty
secret.-Mrs. Coz. Wallace, in N. Y.

ISraelites Vino Have Lived in China for
Two Thousand Years.

A subject of interest to all and of spe-
cial interest to Israelites, says the New
York Journal of Commerce, is revived by
the publication of DR.. Martins work,
"The Chinese: their Education, Philos-
ophy and Letters" The volume is full
of instruction, but the point to which we
refer is his account of visit to the fam
lilies of descendants of Abraham and ia
cob, who have for two thousand years
lived in the city X 'ai-fung-fu in China.
This colony of the old race was made
known to the Western world in the sew
enteenth century by the Jesuit mission
aries, who contributed so largely to his
toric and geographical knowledge in
those days. They were heard from
several times after that, but for more
than hundred years no one from the
Western world had visited them, when
DR.. Martin went there in 1868. Their
present condition is such as to excite
profound interest and commiseration.
The remarkable fact appears that, after
preserving for twenty centuries the laws
and rites of the Hebrew religion, they
are now presenting an instance unpar-
alleled in the history of the Jews, of q
people falling away from the faith, and
rapidly becoming pagans or Mohamme-
dams. Three or four hundred of them
remain. Their synagogue, however, is
falling into decay they themselves tore
it down, and made no effort to rebuild
it. After this was gone they dropped all
practice Of Hebrew rites and ceremonies,
began to intermarry with pagans, lost
all knowledge of Hebrew, retained in
deed, and still possess, all ancient rolls
of the law in a strange form of alphabet,
which neither they nor ordinary Hebrew
scholars can read, but have no knowl-
edge of the contents of the manuscripts,
and have almost lost the traditions of
their religion.
Dr. Martin prophesies their total dis
appearance as a separate race. unless
Western Hebrews shall send missiona-
ries to them and enable them to rebuild
their synagogue, of which now only re-
mains stone inscribed with the record
of its erection, about A. D. 1888, and a
subsequent re-erection. The last rabbi
who could read the Book of the Law
died some sixty years ago. Up to that
time this remarkable colony, which had
come into China 200 or 500 years before
the Christian era, had, with all the char
acteristics of their race, preserved their
pure blood and the faith and ritual of
their fathers.
These facts have been published be-
fore, and an appeal was once made to
the Hebrews of New York by DR.. Mar
tin on behalf of their relatives in China.
He says the only result was the recep-
ton of some letters in Hebrew, which he
was requested to transmit to the people,
to whom they were, of course, unin-
telligible, as none of them could read
the nfissives. sae#g+a &e&s

Pickering light along. the northern shy,
it is the mastering OF the spirits of the
mighty warriors, whirling their spears
and marching with proud steps, as the
shades of Agamemnon strobe across the
fields of Asphodel. The earthquakes
rumble is the grooming and turning in
sleep of big old giant, with voice of
thunder, eyes of fire, and breath OF
flame. He was 80 immense that he
sprawled across the whole plain, and so
powerful the immortal gods, finding they
could not kill him, tore up a high noun
tain and laid on him, to keep him quiet.
What is this but Enceladus?
Under Mount Etna he lies.
1t is slumber, it is not death;
For he struggles at times to arise,
And above him the luIid skies
Are hot with his fiery breath.
The crags are piled on his breast,
The earth is heaped on his head;
Though smothered and half suppressed,
Are heard, and he is not dead.
The best hope and strongest faith Of
the Pueblos are in the second coming of
the great King, who is to raise the dead,
Judge the world, and reign in peace and
righteousness. Struggling with shadows
and weird imaginings, working out their
destiny with many bitter failure, in
anguish of heart, they instinctively
reach through the darkness for the
almighty hand of the unseen helper.
The sons of Montezuma, as they love to
call themselves, believe the fullness of
time is come and the return of their
Messiah at hand. He will leave his
bright sun house to right the wrongs
and heal the woes Of the race so merci-
iessly stricken down by the Spaniards.

The Effects of Mental Exhaustion.

Many diseases, especially those of the
nervous system, are the products of daily
renewed mental exhaustion. Business avo-
cations often involve an amount OF mental
wear and tear very prejudicial to physical
health, and the professional if arduously pur-
sued. are no less destructive to brain and
nerve tissue It is one of the most i'm.
portant attributes of Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters that it compensates for this undue
loss of tissue, and that it imparts new en-
ergy to the brain and nerves. The rapid
ty with which it renews weakened mental
energy and physical vitality is remarkable,
and shows that its invigorating properties
are of the highest order. Besides increas-
ing vital stamina, and counteracting the
effects of mental exhaustion, this potential
medicine cures and prevents fever and
ague, rhematism, chronic dyspepsia and
constipation, kidney and uterine weakness
and other complaints. Physicians also
commend it as a medicated stimulant and
remedy.
