They were an utter-tOO Utter-crOWd

footed chap on his way to the lumber
camps.
Il think this lake breeze Is quite too
exhilarating for anything, - observed a
young man who ate dinner with green
kids on.
''Ive got something that beats that
all hOller," Clipped in the big man.
They filed the bottle right up for a
quarter. I don't want to buck agin the
saloon on board, but if you say you've
got cramps, YOU shall have pull at
If green kids had 'em he wouldn't
own it, and to cover his embarrassment
another of the party, with eyeglasses
and white neck-tie, remarked:
f'ROll on, thou troubled waters, roll. "
''Oh, you'll git roll enough before
you git across Saginaw Bay" remarked
the bic man. Time this breeze has
been blowing an hour you'll feel like
an old dish-rag hung up to scare the
crows away"
White neck-tie gave him q killing
stare, but it glanced of, and one Of the
ladies said:
He struggled bravely with the
storm-lashed sea-
'WhO was that, ma am? P'raps YOU
mean my old pard. Yes. he struggled
bravcly, and if this old lake wasn't list
a-bilin' then I don't want a cent. Jim
was a good swimmer, but he had to
cave at last"
The whole group gave him a looking
over, but he was shOt-prOOf, and, turn
ing to Green Kids, he asked:
Think you could save yourself If
this boat went dOTn?'
No answer.

They rose up as one, locked arms and
passed into the cabin, and the bic man
looked after them and whistIed:

Pdmin Forr..t and WITT nlona

/ Many years ago. while Edwin Forrest
was playing an engagement in a West
| ern theateT, White Cloud and a number
of other Indian chiefs were on their re-
turn from Washington, Stopping in
the town over night, they were conduct
ed to the theater to see the great Amer
lean tragedian. Mr.. Forrest was then
in the prime of life, his voice being up
to the maximum of @ stentOr. The play
on that evening was "MetamOra, -
which is now in the possession of John
Mccullough. White Cloud and his
/ band of warriors were accommodated
with seats in q stage-bOx. The theater
was crowded and it was very evident
that the auditors were anxious to OBJ
serve what eGec, the performance would
have on the SimOn-pure children of the
forest. The play proceeded, and al
/ though the Indians could not under
stand single word that was said, yet
they appeared to be much interested,
occasionally giving to one another a
satisfactory gruut. After a while they
became rather uneasy, which seemed to
be simultaneous among them all. This
was more apparent when the Indian
War-WhOOp came from behind the
scenes. The eyes of the audience were
upon White Cloud, who two or three
times grasped the tOmahawk in his belt
The other warriors did so likewise. The
party were getting more excited rs the
play proceeded. They looked ut each
other with anxiety. Their ewes indexed
the fact that their ''soUls were in arms"
Presently MetlmOra with Uplifted tOma-
hawk, rushed upon the stage, and
when he gave that War-WhOop, which
none but a Forrest could do, the In
dians could remain in their seats no
longer. Forrest gave o second and a
shril WhOOp, whereupOn White Cloud
and his band, joining in full chorus,
sprang upon the stage, and brandish-
ing their tOmahaWks and glittering
knives, rushed toward MetamOra. For
rest was dumbfounded for a moment,
but he soon took in the situation, and,
finding that tn real Indians were on
his side, ready to do OF die in his behalf,
he felt that he had achieved one of his
greatest triumphs in the profession he
so much loved during his eventfuI life.
In detailing this anecdOte Forrest said
that he was not really aware that he
was using an axact "whoOp" for rein
fOrcements, but the wild Indians under
stood it and responded as followers of
MetamOra. The house was thrown into
the widest excitement, which soon
cooled down, with the general belief
that it was the best performance and
most effective rendition of the Indian
play ever made by the distinguished
actOr.-SaU Francisco Vanity F'air.

A Rnzu Man


A Milwaukee man, while in Chicago
recently, sent a bouquet of flowers to a
relative in a Wisconsin town, and when
he heard from them they had arrived
four days after being shipped, wilted
and dead. He was mad, and in talk
ing it over with a railroad man the rail
TOader said: You must not expect
too much of an express agent Now,
that bouquet had to pass - Junction,
and 1 know the express agent there.
He is the depot agent, express agent,
keeps q restaurant, is postmaster, acts
as switchman, helps unload freight,
checks baggage, keeps a store, works 9
team on the road, drives passengers to
adjoining towns, is sexton in a church,
buys country produce, keeps the hay
scales, runs the caucuses Of both polit-
ieal parties, goes out shooting chickens
with hunters, keeps a pool table, has q
mill for grinding sugar-caue, and runs
a hOp-yard, besides helping his wife
run a millinery store. Now q man that
has as much business as that ought to
be excused for letting q bouquet re-
main in the express Office a week or
ten days" The man who sent the bOu-
quet Of flowers said, come to think of
it, they were mighty lucky to get the
flowers at all, and he would apologize
for any words he might have spoken in
the heat of debate. What the country
wants is a diversity Of industries

PRESIDENT ARTRUR'S POLICY.

Thus far, the signs are all favor,
able, that the policy of President
Arthur will meet the approval of the
/ great mass Of the Republican party
and the people. He is moving ahead
cautiously, keeping his own counsel,
and showing a commendable desire
to discourage all factions in the Re
publican party, and as far as possible,
heal all dissensions in it's ranks.
Recent letters from Washington
state that the President has declared
his intention to make no removals
from Office except for good cause
such ae ineompetency of the present
incumbent. It is related that one
Of the Presidents intimate friends,
and n "stalwart7 of the most pro
nounced type, recently asked him
for an appointment, The President
inquired if there was any charges
against the officer now holding the
place. The reply was in the mega
tive, The President then inquired
how soon the officers time would ex-
pire. The reply was, mot for a year
OF more. "Then," said the Presi-
dent, "eome to me again, about a
month before his time is out, and I
will consider your application"
It is also stated that some Ken
lucky gentlemen recently visited
Washington, to ask the President to
remove certain postmasters in that
State, and appoint their successors.
The President asked if there were
any complaints against their official
conduct Being answered that there
were none, but that the applicants
for their places were staunch sup
porters of Gen. Grant at Chicago,
the President replied that he did not
consider that any special reason for
their appointment.
We trust the President will con
tinue in this wise and prudent course,
and that his administration viii
agreeably disappoint those who fear
ed he might pursue a different policy.
The Cincinnati Gazette says:
1T is cur belief that the policy of
President Arthur that would best
please the great mass Of those who
elected him would be that which
would disappoint the extreme men
of all factions. These people do not
want Grantism or anti-Grantism, or
Blaineism, bat they want Republican
ian in its higher and purer sense,
with that progress in the direction
of those reforms in the public service
for which there is IN almost univer
sal demand. In this field President
Arthur may most distinguish himself,
and thereby become a leader that all
factions will be glad to follow"

The London Times ON Guiteau.

The London Times, commenting
on the trial of Guiteau, says: "The
admiration and sympathy for the il
Iustrious victim excited in Europe
by President GarfeId's death, are too
great to admit of much concern
about the motives and conduct of the
criminal In America, as in Great
Britain, some amendment in the
conduct of criminal trials seems call
ed for. The American nation neith-
er desires to sacrifice lunatic, nor
to be so facile in the acceptance Of
counterfeit evidence of disease as to
encourage wanton assassination

The Smallest Woman In the World.


Lucia Zarate, the smallest woman in
the world, was born in Mexico. Her
parents were peOnS-that is to say half
breeds. When born she was the size
of rat. It was supposed that she was
dead, and she was put in a little box
that happened to be in the room. Soon,
however, she began to scream. She
was then taken out of her box, and, eX-
cept that she was wOndrOusly small,
she soon played and ran about like any
other child. This is what the weekly
Arizona AiRey' says, but we can lay
over that. Bologna Sausagini, the
most smallest woman in the world,
was born in the city of London. Her
parents were both over eight feet high.
When born she was no bigger than a
humming-bird's egg, and weighed one
ounce. She was put in a pill-bOx, but
she soon squealed the lid of, and now
she is IA years old, weighs 21O pounds,
and can kick a cat off the doorstep
clear across the street. Them's the
