Girl Duck Hunters.


A solitary sportsman, roaming oy-
or the Alvsrsdo marshes on Sunday
last in pursuit of ducks, which were
few and far between, bethought him
self of en- artesian well 10 the distance
where be might slsks his thirst.
When be reached the desired spot,
he saw two young girls seated on
the margin, dressed in peculiar and
striking costume. They wore tunics
extending to the knees. long rubber
boots, hunting coats and caps, and
were provided with an excellent
brace Of breech. loading shotguns.
Beside them lay pile of teal. Wild
Reon and rail, ample testimony to
their skill in the use Of their weapons.
The hunter raised his hat, and pre-.
Stunning on the fraternity of sport,
inquired if the ladies had good luck.
They pointed triumphsntly to their
birds, and then glanced sympathetic
cally at their interrogator's faccid
gams.bag. Both were unusually
pretty girls, their cheeks brown from
exposure, showing that it was not
their first excursion, and the hands
with which they dsbbed the cool
water on their heated faces were white
and dimpled. They confessed that
the oddity Of their costume made
them shun the male hunter, though
the sportsman confessed that he had
never believed that rubber boots
could look SO cunning. Just then a
bunch Of teal came down the wind
with lightning speed, and both girls
squatted on the marsh IN Q moment.
Along swept the birds, bang went
both guns, and three birds fell to the
ground with that delightful thud
which is music to the hunters ear.
They picked them up, and with
generosity altogether unknown to the
male sportsman, offered him q brace
of the birds, as be had the courtesy
to allow them to do the shooting.
They explained how they came to be
hunters. One was extremely delicate
and after graduating at well-known
seminary in Alameda county, was
recommended out door exercise by
the doctors as the only escape from
consumption. Tired of objectless
strollipg, the girl, under the kindly
tutOrship OF her uncle, learned to
shoot, converted companion to the
sport, and botn are now passion ately
attached to hunting. They know the
best duck passes in Alameda county,
where snipe are to be found, the
good quail covers, and seldom return
without generous bags.-Vsllejo

Carlos, of the Flathead nation, with a
few hundred Indians, removed from
the reservation some years ago, and

ago and dramatic scene ensued.
Vest, through ali interpreter, explain
ed the object of his mission.
Carlos, who is noted brave, with a
face of wonderful strength and mas
siveness, gazed defantly at Vest a
moment and then began his reply:

''Nez Perez Joseph tried to go to
the rlains," broke in Vest, "look
wherein there are no plains now. The
white men are as thick as leaves from
ocean to ocean. If you do not get a
title to your lands here like white
men, the soldiers will some day come
and place you upon a reservation.
"My hands and those of my people
are free from the white man s blood,''
said Carlos. ..When the Nez Perces
came here we protected the whites.
Why does the white man take his
heart from us now?''
He then took his hat off. threw it
upon the floor, and with blazing eyes
gazing upon Vest, shouted:
You may take Carlos to the reser-
vation. but there will be breath in his
nostrils. Carlos will be dead. He
will not be alive"
Senator Vest stood up and answered
the tawny chieflain in language as
emphatic as his own, that he must
obey the white lnan, slaws~ as inplic.

not, he must go where the govern.
ment chose to send him.

WHY THE "RoYAL" THE BEST.

The improved method by which it has
been made possible to produce pure cream
OF tartar, has had an important bearing
upon the manufacture Of baking powder.
By the process heretofore generally en-
ployed, 1t has been found impossible To re-
move all Impurities, more particularly the
tartrate OF lime, which remained 10 such
an extent as To greatly impair the quality
OF the cream OF tartar, and To interfere Sc
riously with the strength and wholesome
ness OF the baking powders into which 1t
entered.
Ia the new process, which Is owned by
the Royal Baking Powder Company OF New
York. and exclusively employed in its ex.
tensive tsrtar works, the imported crude
grape acid is so treated as to remove all
vestige OF tartrate OF lime or other impuri-
ties, giving product before unknown-s
chemically pure cream OF tartar.
BY the employment OF these superior IA
cilities, the Royal Baking Powder Compa-
ny has made the Royal Baking Powder, as
the chemists all certify, OF the highest
possible degree OF strength. absolutely
pure" and wholesome, aud with an always
uniform leavening power. IL Is for these
reasons that the " Royal" never fails 10
produce bread, biscuit, cakes, etc. that are
light. sweet, digestible, and wholesome;
the eating OF which is never followed by
indigestion. or any Of those physical dis
comforts attendant upon the partaking OF
Improperly prepared food. In rendering
possible the production OF baking pow
der possessed OF these qualifications, the
improved method OF refining cream OF tar
tar becomes at once matter OF material
importance TO the culinary world.

MATCHES. The great match comblnatio q

Of the abolition Of the stamp tax. Tie
Diamond Match Company which has had
practical monopoly OF the business for

fac,urers. has issued new price list show
ing a reduction Of over 1fty per cent.
Matches that have been selling at IS 10
DER case are now offered at % 80 with dis
counts on large orders.
II will be remembered that when the
propositiou TO abolish the tax OF 81 ~ per
gross on matches was under discussion Ia
the last Congress, Senator Bayard, who
Was understo God TO represent the Diamond
Match Company, composed Of all the con-
solidated match companies, opposed the
REDUCTION, and claimed that the price OIL
matches would be unchanged. Some oil
the opposition papers took up the refrain,
and charged that this Republican reduction
az taxation wouldn't benefit the people.
The Journal In noticing this position, took
the ground that the removal OF the tax
wonld make IL feasible for any one 10 &c
to making matches on equal terms, ano
that therefore 1t was not In the power OIL
the Diamond Company or any one else to
prevent a reduction Of the price TO SUD
stantially the extent Of the abolition Oh Int
tsx. The result has justified our predic'
ton. The wholesale price has oeen re
duced q little more than the tax, ano

The GIFT OF BENJAMIN 4. BATES TO
BATES COLLEGE DECLARED VOTD. The
controversy which has been pending In the
Massachusetts, Supreme Court for some
time arising out OF conditional git Of
800, 900 to Bates College has been decid-
ed against the college. February, 1873,
the college, offered to give 100000 on
within five years. The college claimed
that the conditions were complied with,
but after the death OF Mr.. Bates the execu-
tors of his will disputed that proposition.
The decision OF the court turned out .
note for s25, 900 which the college count
ed In its subscription OF 100000, and II
Is held that this note was not actual mou-
ey, and the gin OF Mr.. Bates becomes void.
