Horrible Addiction.

There expired at the Charity Hospital,
New York, an old man who for years had
been victim Of the dreadful malady, lep-
rosy. The case had peculiar interest for
the physicians, and DESTROYS of ascertain
ing how he came to be afflicted, they
closely questioned Henkle about
his whereabouts for years past.
Before 1865 he had been in Texas
and Mexico. Four years before he came to
the hospital he noticed eruptions on his
hands, head and feet which, under treat
ment, were affected Two and half years
later they showed again, but disappeared.
This time his eyebrows fell out, and, after
the disappearance of the spots, tubercular
eruptions took their place on his forehead,
his legs swelled, and the skin whitened
and became much swollen about his eyes.
In 1877 partial angsthesia of the skin took
place, and all feeling ceased. In 1879 the
tubercles of the face increased over the eve
brows and also on the chin and neck, giving
the patient thoroughly canine aspect. In
1880 the tubercles of the face became softer,
many disappeared from the arms and back,
and the patches on the leg began to break
up into smaller distinct tubercles. Inter
Ocean special.

The regular annual raid of oklahoma coll

City Times says there is 10 doubt Captain
Payne will open up Oklahoma to settlement
without interference from the Government.
The Times thinks it perfectly right to per-
NIT the violation of treaty obligations, but
the facts remain that our Government has
solemnly pledged itself to permit the settle
ment in that district of none save
friendly Indians. 1t is doubtless true
that there is no more fertile
country, no better cattle region in
the Union than is Oklahoma" but, never
theless, until the Indians of the Five
Nations give their consent, it must be kept
intact Oklahoma contains 100000 acres
of land, and is about $50 miles west Of
Ninita. 1t was coded to the government
by the Chickasaws, Choctaws and Semi
nOles, on the condition that it should not
be sold to white men, but be used to settle
friendly tribes of Indians. When the In
dialfs, therefore, consent to the abrogation
of that stipulation, the district can be
thrown open. Let the government for once
respect its treaties

the child. On reaching home, and ac.

she refused to have it administered to the

suffering, and the parents without sleep
Returning home the day following, the
father found the baby still worse; and while
contemplating another sleepless night, the
mother stepped from the room to attend to
some domestic duties, and left the father
with the child. During her absence he ad-
ministered dose of the Soothing Syrup to
the child, and said nothing. That night all
hands slept well, and the little fellow awoke
in the morning bright and happy. The
mother was delighted with the sudden and
wonderful change and although at first of
tended at the deception practiced upon her,
discontinued to use the Syrup and suffering,
crying babies and restless nights have dis
appeared, A single trial of the Syrup never
yet failed to relieve the baby, and overcome

In that first-felt sense Of pride
When she persisted from my side
In that West.world, long ago
Even SO,
All is won. Yet what is won
All we dared TO dream is done,
Yet had rather rest to-day
Where the widc-eyed rabbits play
Rest as she restf, lone and low
Even so,
Rather walk that grass grown trail,
PeOpled by the piping quail,
Leading to that lonely grave
Where forgotten grasses wave,
To mine own grave than this show

Let Sierra's sad winds blow;

BY the four winds from mine own;
