A letter from Arizona tells the follow
ing sad story of anIndian massacre =
"Stanislaus Metas, nine years old, has
just arrived from Sevens's sheep camp
with the following story of the Indian
massacre on the 18tA of April: Before
daylight the Indians attacked the camp
while we were all sleep. My father
and Eve other mel attempted to get
their guns, but wer, too late. The In
dams rushed in fron all sides and over
powered them befo'e a shot could be
fred. An Indian pat the muzzle of his
gun against the he'd OF one man and
fired, blowing his brains against the
door and walls. / saw them kill my
mother and two lrothers by beating
their brains out with stones. They killed
five persons, and it'd my father and tor
tured him most dreldfully. He begged
them to spare him, but they only tor
tured him the more Finally they split
his skull with an AK. An Indian squaw,
the wife of one of far friendly Apache
sheep herders who worked with us,
saved my. life by holding me behind her
and begging them Q spare me. When

LIE Figaro thinks the following
ferocious but authentic story proves
that the heart is very near the stomach:
A little girl of five, while in the country,
had present of a pretty little white
rabbit, to which she be came frantically
attached. At the end of the season the
family prepared to return to Paris,
"What she'll we do with bunny ?" asked
the little one. "My dear, we can't take
him with us" said the parent, not a
little troubled at grieving the child.
"Really, can't we take him p said the
infant; "then let's eat him."

GOD CARETR
Oar BONNIE babe ! She came to US

Our bonnie babe she came to US
Long years ago in May,
When daisies filed the fields with bloom,
: And hills were glad and gay.
With dimpled hands and smiling mouth,
And cheeks of rosy hue,
And ewes that spoke Of purple flowers,
Baptized in sun and dew.
All me. she was SO blithe and bright,
How could she stray or sin
Her life SO pure, how could faint
OF evil enter in
And when she knelt at eve to pray,
Her hands close clasped in ours,
We thought her canonized-a saint,
And crowned with heavenly flowers.
But yet those white and dimpled feet
Might seek the paths of sin,
Those childish hands might reap the fruit,
That erring mortals win.
And so we taught little prayer,
Her lips loved to repeat,
" God viii take care of baby"
In accents low and sweet.
The seasons went and came again,
The years flew on apace,
And something like light divine
Grew on her girlish face.
Her spirit owned trusting love,
A faith beyond compare,
81 God will take care of baby"
Was still her daily prayer.
The summers passed till three sweet years
Her childish life had known,
And was it strange that one so pure,
Death should pronounce his own?
Her round cheek lost the glow of health,
That it was wont to wear.
A halo cleaned around her brow,
And crowned her shining hair.
One day, when earth was all afiame,
We laid her down to rest.
With meek smile, she crossed her hands,
And placed them ON her breast.
We brought her lilies blooming low,
In meadows faint and fair,
And ere she slept in death, she breathed
C1ce more her childhood's prayer.
We bent above the waxen face
And kissed the brow of snow,
Our tears fell fast, and still We wept
Yet 10th to let her go,
Her eyes Enclosed she sweetly smiled
And spoke in whispers deep,
" God will take care of baby"
And then she fell asleep.

Real Estate "reminiscences.

The "Hermit of the Troy Press
writes from New York City as follows !:
William FL. Vanderbilt recently gave
$500, 900 for plot of land on Fifth
avenue 100 feet square, being at the
rate of $l,5O0,000 per acre. This is
the highest price paid for building
plot in America. When / came to New
York the spot referred to was a mile
beyond the suburbs, and the whole
vicinity was occupied by market garden
ers. need hardly add that real estate
is now at unparalleled prices. The
auction mart for this specially is held
in the basement of Trinity building, and
this vast area (40x160 feet) has dozen
auction stands, at all of which sales
may take place at the same time with
out interference. Each auctioneer has
his crowd, and, as each bidder is eager
for bargain, no attention is paid to
the din from the neighboring stand.
The Merchants Exchange in Wall
street was formerly the real estate mart,
but when it became the Custom House
a change was necessary. The auction
GERS have their offices elsewhere, and
only resort to their real estate stands at
tho hour of sale. Hence, on one day
the place may be crowded and the next
1t may be deserted. The most import
ant sale which has taken place this sea-
son was that of the water front belong
ing to the Rhinelander estate. It
extends 535 feet along the Hudson, and
brought, under the hammer, the pretty
sum of 1872, 500, being at the rate of
81, 1863 Is per running foot. This fact
shows the immense extent of our
foreign and domestic commerce, which
now centres on the north side of town.
The Rhinelanders began poor, and in
the first directory Q786), "Mrs. Rhy-
lander is down as keeping shop in.
William street. In the next generation
we have F. & p. Rhinelander, lumber
merchants, in Barclay street, and it
was then that this water front came in
to the possession of the family. The
late William @. RhinelaDder left an
estate estimated at $1,000, 600, which is
now to be divided among the heirs.

Why Jurors Are Against Railroads.

A railway president is quoted as hav-
ing recently urged secrecy regarding
accidents because reports get into news
papers and influence possibly members
of coroners' iuies, the majority of
jurors being against railway companies
anyhow. If the official quoted is salts.
fed that the general adult male popula-
ton feels as he says it does lie should
search for the cause of such feeling. He
would not have to look far, and he
might learn hov to save his own road
some unnecessary expense through &C
cident. If Jurors generally suspect
something wrongin case of accident it
is because most zen who are summoned
on coroners' jurles are men who some
times travel, and no man can travel
much without noticing that the work
ing force of railroad company gen.
orally contains some pretty had stuff.
A man who, looking ont of car windows.
always sees the same man at switch,
no matter how esrly or late the hour, is
likely to blame the company in case of
collision. Men who, when an engi-
neer sounds "do1n brakes" see brake
men first look ahead, and to their own
chances of safety before they turn their
brake wheels, are likely to be against a
company that retains such men. Travel
ers who have sen some attache of a
stopped train walk slowly backward
with his red fcg, caring more about the
danger of beng LIT behind than that of
collision, are lilely to blame the COM
pany, particularly if most of the officers
are better known as stock spectators
than as practical railway managers.
Men who read ihe papers also know
how the repaizs~sssetSzae roads are neg
lected so that an apparent surplus may
swell the fund rom which dividends
must be paid. Jurors are never against
railroad company that manages its
business properly. -NeaO York Herald.

The bill recently passed by the New
Jersey Legislature to suppress and
punish the sale of " skim med milk" is
commendable measure. It's restrict
i've provisions are stringent, but ex-
cellent in scope, and W i'll receive the
Endorsement of the public and all honest
de callers. It provides that every one
who shall offer for sale, transfer or carry,
or have in possession with intent to
sell, milk from which the cream has
been removed, shall attach to each and
every can or other receptacle metal
stamp with the words {" SKINNED milk"
engraved thereon. All who offer for
sale or have in their possession skinned
milk not so marked, or any adulterated
milk, are liable to penalty of $50 for
the first offense and 800 for the second
offense and all subsequent offenses of
the kind. In default of payment, the
law imposes the penalty of imprison-
ment for not less than ten or more than
sixty days. Similar penalties are
further imposed upon persons who shall
keep milking COWS in a crowded or IN
healthy condition or feed them with
food which is calculated to produce
impure, diseased, or unwholsome milk.
The law rigidly prohibits feeding the
animals upon the distillery waste usually
known as "swill," or upon any sub
stance whatever which is in an I'M
wholesome condition or has an injurious
effect. So far as the authorization is
concerned, the new law is very COM
prehensive, and declares that in addi-
ton to that doctored with the common
adulterant, water, all milk shall be
classed ss adulterated which is obtained
from animals fed on "swill," or other
deleterious stuff, or that has been ex-
posed to or contaminated by the presence
of unhealthy surroundings, or in
proximity to persons or places infected
with contagious disease. In general,
all milk found upon analysis to contain
less than II per cent. of milk solids or
more than 88 per cent. of watery fluids
is classed as adulterated. For the
purpose of securing proper inspection
to suppress illegal traffic by milk
dealers, the law finally provides for the
appointment of an Inspector at salary
of $500 per year. This official is en-
powered to open any receptacle he may
suspect to contain s. skinned" or i'm
pure milk for the purpose of analysis.
If this shall establish its impure charac-
ter, each can containing doctored
fluid is to be emptied and the owner
prosecuted. Toinsure the more thorough
enactment of the law, provision is also
made for the appointment of assistants
to the Inspector at salary of IS per
day,
