COSTLY BUSINESS.


 It would cost great deal of money to civ | ilize or half-civilize the savage Indians and make them self-supporting but it is doubtful 1 if it would cost as much as the present plan | of dealing with them does, and the money would be well spent A report which has 1 been sent to Congress shows what the Indians l have cost the government during the last ten years and the figures are really startling. The ] wars alone have not been very expensive. The Modoc war of 1872-73 cost only 5355,- GOO. The war in Texas, in 1875, cost only $6,641. A more expensive contest was that with the Sioux, in 1S7G-7, which ran up bill of $1 ,894, ,3G1. In 1877 there was diff culty with the Nez Perces, costing S975, ,O82, and the next year S5G7, ,571 were spent in the Bannock war. The conflict with the North ern Cheyennes, in 1S78-9, cost S34, 2O9, while the attempt in 1879 to subdue the Utes in- volved an expenditure of $1, 192, ,6S2. In the same year 80, All were spent i'll controlling the Sheep Eaters, and in 1881, with the Apache difficulties not overcome, the expense reached $43S, 800. The total cost of these active attempts to control the aborigines was $5, O58, ,821.
 But the expenses of fighting the Indians were but very small part of all the ex- penditure on their account. The aggregate cost of all kinds of service by the United States army west of the Mississippi, in which part of the country there was no proper oc- cupation for the soldiers but fighting or po- lice duty on Indian account was, for the last ten years, $2O5, 474, 759. This has been the cost of troops, and does not take into account the peace offerings, annuities, and other in- ducements to prevent the use of the toma- hawk and scalping knife, which have been provided at very large expense by the gov ernment. While the cost of the troops is given at $2O5 ,474, 759, Adjutant General Drum decides that this IS not all the expense which can be charged to them, and furnishes tables, with items additional, to be charged on appropriations for supplies, incidental ex- penses, transportation, purchase of horses, and other trifes, which make the grand total of $223, ,891, 2G+. According to General Sherman, the army now consists of 23, 785 enlisted men and about 2,OOO officers. Of these, all the cavalry all the Indian scouts, 24 out of 25 regiments of infantry, and an entire regiment and three companies of ar- tillery, numbering IS, 529 men, are west of the Mississippi while the total number east of the Mississippi is 5,25G: His general con- clusion is, without examining the figures closely, that four ffths of the expenditures of the annual appropriations have been made on Indian account during the ten years be- tween 1872 and 1882
 It is to be hoped that the record of the next ten years will show a less enormous diff ference between the money spent for keeping in order and killing the Indians and that spentfor their education and just treatment. There are, we are glad to be able to say, signs that this will be the case

Fashions in England.
Single-Seamed AIantles. TitIan Red Hair, Cotton Gowns and Pink Dresses the Only INaRr.
From the London Daily News.

Her Majesty's first drawing-room invariably brings a subtle flavor of millinery and modes into the social atmosphere Fashion has her circling year like nature, her periods of tran sition and moments of apparent incoherence, but the skilled in signs and tokens understand her in every mood. About Esstertide she proclaims her will to the world. Before her mood is but minated. Small wonder that the competition to attain to such knowledge is keen, and when the first beginning of the London season affords opportunities for dis
 playing the fruits of such early informa- tion, it is not surprising that the air is full of rumors of the won ders that will be. What is for instance the signitication of the mysterious announcement that mantles to be made henceforth with one seam instead of three? Can anything save sack be satisfactorily made with one seam? Three seams say the learned in mat ters sartorial, give a look of squareuess to the waist whereas we all know that modern taste admires q rOundness that is by no means natural in that portion of the human frame
 % %..4e ss.,r tiIpt sut1ce does not imply that any sack like loOseness will char acterize the jackets, mantles and visites of the sea on They are to be tighter than ever. The one seam is to be so vigorously tight that no supcrfluous fold of flesh may dare tn venture there Tight facing is to be tighter than cvar- The single seam Is said toe. tO have the further advantage of not necessl- tating the frivolous cutting up Of the large brocaded flowers that adorn the stamped vel yet of which mantles are now made, ard em- brOidery in velvet will continue to characteT- ize the new and beautiful brocaded gauges which are to be the great novelty for out
 door garments as the season advances.

Double Horse Car Tracks.


 The Fair Haven and Vest vile Horse Rail road company lately applied to the Legisla- ture for power to lay additional track on certain parts of their main rad = =. ...., could run the cars once in six minutes or oftener. But some of the business men on State and Chapel streets made such strong opposition, and were backed up by the city authorities, that the company had To with draw the application. This is very much to be regretted. 1t would be a great conven- fence tO the public to have the cars r.sn oftener, and would be of very little if any inconvenience to Chapel and State streets as both tracks would be in width but about fouFteen. feet
 The pTb.Ic demand more cars, and heartily approve of the efforts of the company to run them. Some people suppose that the cars can now run oftener than every twelve min utes but they will see that this is impossible For instance car that leaves the east end of Fair Haven bridge esl SC to the turn out near Ferry street in six minutes, wi4sE it meets one that gets back on the same track to the east end Of tne bridge in six minutes more, making twelve minutes If tbers was & double track any number of cars could keep noting, as it would meet none cn the same track between turn outs as they now do

An interesting document has lately been found in the State archives of Hesse Darm- stadt. It contains the official tariff of fees allowed to executioners by the municipalities of Darmstadt and Bessungen in the latter part of the fourteenth century. The fee for boiling criminal in oil was twenty four forins; for decapitating with the sword, if teen forins and half; for quartering the same for breaking on the wheel, five forins thirty kreuzers for tearing man to pieces," eighteen forins. Ten forins per head was the executioners charge for hang ing, and he burnt delinquents alive at the rate of fourteen forins apiece. For applying the Spanish Boot" his fee was only two forins. Five forins were paid to him every time he subjected refractory witness to the torture of the rack. The same amount was due for branding the sign of the gallows with red hot iron upon the back, forehead, or cheek of thief, n as well as for "cutting off the nose and ears of slanderer blas- phemer." Flogging with rods, was a cheap punishment, its remuneration being fixed at three forins thirty kreuzers

The dangers of circumstantial evidence have received a striking illustration in Flen- na. Four years ago a girl of bad character was sentenced to death for killing another girl of the same sort who occupied room next to hers. The sentence was commuted by the High Court of Austria to six years at hard labor. The name of the murdered girl was Kate Ballogh and Kate Steiner the name of the girl convicted of the murder. week or two ago young man doing military ser vice in provincial town the son of one of the Emperor's councillors and highly re- spected man, informed his superiors that it was he who had murdered Kate Ballogh four years ago, and his conscience was tormenting him so that he felt he must reveal the truth. He says he was in 8 very desperate frame of mind four years ago, and that he was re- solved to commit suicide by taking prussic acid, which he had prepared some time pre- viously He was in this condition when on the second evening of his stay in Vienna g pretty girl accosted him and took him to her home. He asked her to make him some cof- fee. While she preparing it he managed to put the prussic acid into glass of water, which he meant to drink. He turned to look out of the window moment as if to bid the world adieu, and when he returned to the table the girl stood motionless with the emp tied glass in her hand The next moment she fell to the ground in agony and screamed aloud. Then the young man, afraid lest peo- pie should hear her cries and think him her murderer, hastened the work of death by throttling her. The young man has been ta- ken to Vienna and examined and was found to be sound of mind and body Two experts in chemistry asked him how he had prepared the prussic acid, and were satisfied that he knew enough of chemistry to have prepared the poison Kate Steiner, who never contra dicted herself during the whole proceedings four years ago, had managed to excite the jury against herself by her impertinence. But she maintained her innocence to the end, and when the sentence was read to her she faint ed first, and on recovering said: ''1 hope you will all suffer for this. l did not believe it possible that one who is absolutely inno- cent of a crime could be condemned on such evidence as this"
