In tricks to torn ont me, you cannot deny
How of, from her side, I've been oru.red to go
To hunt for your tanship, high and low.
And been, for not finding you, frowned at and
While. meath her own furbeows, basey you

If you weren't just warm from her clasp fear
You'd have hnttered your last at soirees, my

This, teo, is the cord she cruelty twists,
In my envous sight, round her milk white Wrists;
And this, the edge she'd do nothing but bite,
When / prayed for one word, in the soft star
light
She's firt, wretched fan from her head to her
foot,
In it's dainty supremacy absurd little boot
Though one such wickedness wouldn't surmise,
From those tender lips, and shy, sweet eyes
And she looks tonight in that white robes flow,
Fair and pure rs n lily in snou)
But her heart, under all, may be deep and true
The ocean has frivolous fro tn on its blue =
That she likes me little, / can't help believ-

Tobacco Notes.
from the Country Gentleman.

The importation of leaf tobacco from
Sumatra mas suddenly become a ques-
ton ofgreat interest to American cul-
tivators of the weed. The tobacco rails
ed in Sumatra, while not as pleasant TO
the taste as that of Cuba and this
country, is remarkably adapted as
wrappers for cigars. The leaf is very
large and smooth. with much less
waste than in the American leaf. Tc-
bacconists assert that one pound OF
Sumatra leaf are equal to four pounds
OF Connecticut leaf; while on accoun,
of the greater waste in the latter leaf
four pounds OF Sumatra will wrap DOC
cigars, while it would require some
eighteen pounds OF Connecticut leaf tc

THE SACs AND FOXES.
Another Interesting Interview with
Commissioner Price-SuperstitiOn
About the Payroll.


Not satisfied with their interview of yestcr-
day, the seven sac and Fox Indians to-day
again marched into Indian Commissioner
Prices room, Interior Department, and re-
newed their proposition for securing the an.
nuity due them. Mr.. Price said they could not
get a cent until all had signed the payroll, and
In order TO induce them to do so, he said he
would pay them over their =, sigma.
ns $4,000 in two weeks they
purchase OF land rs provided by THO treaty.
After some discussion iivo Of the seven Indians
signined thoir Willingness to accept by throw.
Ing their bows and arrows oil the floor and lay
Ing empty official pay envelopes across thom.
Tho remaining two refused, one declaring that
dian suggested that they go homo
and lay the commissioners proposition
before council OF tho tribe. This
did not suit the two malcontents; they wanted
tho matter settled here, that the money be
paid to certain individual chiefs, who should
sign for, recipe and divide II. They wero In
want to purchase more land until out OF debt.
1t was proposed then that su1iclent to pay tho
debt should be signed for and advanced and
tho disposition OF the balance bo left TO
council consideration. The malcontents
would not consent. They wanted tho
whole question settled while they were
gan to look In such q rambling way that tho
Commissioner ordered him to cease, under
the penalty OF putting blanket ON him. He
then informed tho Indians that he understood
that majority OF thoir tribo wero anxious to
purchase more land, and, as under the treaty
the majority ruled, he insisted on tho delega-
tion returning to n council-meetlng, whore
the whole matter should bo decided upon,
and proper correspondence should fol-
low. This won over one malcon-
tent, but the othor didn't like this
letter writing business; he wanted u sottle-
ment while the delegation was In Washington.
Tho Commissioner was relentless and the dele
cation, with tho ono exception, consented to
his proposition. They then arose and shook
hands with MIR. Price. When tho single
kicker approached.to shake no said he was
still obliged to say that he could not take the
money IL he had 70 sign for 1t. "All right" ro-
piled Mr.. Price, "lf you can 1.-Two without II,

and all went away. They leave for their homo

PUGNACIOUS PRITCHARD
Makes COwarily Assault ON Col
Onel FitzgeraId-He is Fined $40
Thinks He'II Give BniI.

Benjamin +. Pritchard was called up out Of
the dock at Police Court to-day to answer
charges Of assault and battery upon Colonel
N. W. Fitzgerald, making threats of personal
violence TO that gentleman, and with forging
the name OF La Fayette Bingham to letter.
Tho assault case was heard and Colonel Fitz-
gerald testified that he was passing the Fifth
Precinct Station. last evening, when Pritchard
was on the sidewalk In front OF the station In
charge OF two police officers, and that whom he
approached Pritchard a brief colloquy ensued,
and the latter Kicked him under the chin, In
nlcting an injury which caused him Sleep
less night and considerable pain.
The defense claimed that the assault was
provoked, and TO some extent iustinable, as
Colonel Fitzgerald had secured the prisoner 8
arrest and had always been active In prose-
cutting him.
Judge Smell imposed flno OF $40. Tho
threat case was dismissed, as n part OF the
transaction for which he had already boen
fined, and the forgery case was continued fol-
one week.
Pritchard paid tho fine in the assault case
and notified the Court that he would probably
furnish bonds during the day.
