The Destructive Custom Of the Bannock
Indian Tribe.

A Bannock Indian boy, about twelve
years of age, met with II horrible death
at the flouring-mill ut Fort Hall Indian
agency, Idaho Territory, recently. The
boy was idling around the mill at the
time, and happened to yet in the ma
chnery, aud was badly crushed and
mangled before he could be taken from
the gearing. He died soon afterward.
1t is the custom Of Indians to burn or
destroy all things connected with the
death OF one of their tribe For in.
stance, if one meets death by being
kicked by horse, the animal is killed.
and II from disease an Indian dies In
wickup or lodge, it is burned. The mill
IN which this accident occurred was built
by the government at cost of $1,000
or $4,000, and was worth that amount,
of money, Between and o clock on
the morning of the 9th this mill was dis
covered to be on fire, and was soon en-.
tlrcIy consumed, with n large amount
OF wheat and -four belonging to the In
dians. This grain and flour was worth
from $1,000 to $4,000, At the agency
there are two tribes of Indians, the Ban.
nocks and shoshones, and the grain and
hour belonged mostly to the latter, $50
From the well-known practice of Indi-
ans which they consider religious duty

by hre or killing, it was natural to place
The destruction Of the mill at the hands of
the Banuocks, and the ShoShopes losing
tholr property has caused a strong feel.

Advice to a Young Man.

You will perceive, my boy, that every
time man undertakes to manufacture o
little Bible on his own account, he
makes a mortifying failure of it. He is
caught ut it, and in one-tenth OF the
time it took him to conceive his fraud,
in as many hours as it took him months
to prepare it he is exposed, and his
handmade addition to the Bible is
swept away in the other rubbish OF
other counterfeiters. You see, my son,
the Bible doesn't need any of these
nineteenth-ccntury proofs of its truth;
1t needs the word of no man to establish
It's gonuineness; it has stood by itself
ian anvil that has worn out many ham,
mers" through century after century,
unchanged and Interchangeable. Every
time man manufactures q new verse
or new chapter we know il is not
genuine, we detect the counterfeit. The
Bible has no need Of the supporting
prop Of fraudulent ark or a leather
De Ateronomy There was complete
Bile centuries before Shapiro happened
and there will be the same Bible ages
after Shapiro and his patent Deuter-
nomy have together crumbled into indis-
tinguishable dust The Bible doesn't
need our Up, our testimony, our in
dorsement. And if there had never
been discovered in all the world bit
of parchment, piece Of broken pottery
or a scratched stone, the Bible would
be just as strong as it is to-day, and
men would believe just as firmly and
trustiully in its truth, Don't YOU wor-
ry, my boy, because Shapira's ancient
manuscript was written with London
ink, and don't fret because the ark ia
the glacier turns out to be put together
with Pittsburg nails, That all the
frauds on the Bible and its history are
SO quickly and easily detected should
only convince you how impossible it is
for man to counterfeit the work of God.
Wait till some man fools us with an ar
tiiicial moon; and until somo philos-
opher stores away the sunlight in par.
lor lamps, before you believe that man
can successfully initiate what man mover
made. Huntington Hawkeye.

Tame Butterflies,

A lady living in London writes to the
October Century;
Zone summer watched the larvae Of
the swallow tailed butterfly through
their different stages, and reserved two
chrysalides to euvelop into the perfect
insect. In due time one OF these fairy
like creatures came out. | placed it in
small Indian cage made of fine threads
of bamboo. a carpet Of soft moss and
a vase OF flowers in the centre made
pleasant home for my tiny Psyche, |
found that she greatly enjoyed n re-
past of honey; when some was placed
on a leaf within her reach, she would
uncoil her long proboscis aud draw up
the sweet food with great apparent en-
joyment She was so tame that ii be-
came my habit, once or twice a day, to
take her on my finger; and while | walk
ed in the garden she would take short
flights hither and thither, but she was
always content to mount upon my hand
again. She would come on my finger
of her own accord, and, if the day was
| bright, would remain there az long as
had patience TO carry her, with hel
wings outspread, basking in the sun
beams, which appeared 10 convey ex'
quisite delight to the delicate little
creature,
II never touched her beautiful wings
She never iluttered or showed any wish
to escape, but lived three weeks o,
tranquil life in her tiny home; and ther
having, as | suppose, reached the limit
of butterfly existence, she quietly ceased
to live.
"On the day Of her death the other
butterfly emerged, and lived for the
same length of time. Both were equal
" tame, but the second showed more
intelligence, for she discovered that by
folding her wings together she could
easily walk between the slender bars Of
the cage, and having done so, she would
fly to window and remain there, bask.

her wings with evident enjoyment, I'm.

Bishop Simpson made his first APP
pearance in Lancaster, Pa, one Sunday
morning very unexpected to himself and
the people called Methodists' of that
city. His home was in Pittsburgh. He
was travelling over the PENNSYLVANIA
railroad to Philadelphia, and break
down detained him over Sunday in Ian
caster. After breakfast he sauntered
out to find Methodist church, and,
walking up Duke street, he met good
IIethodist, the late Mr.. Carpenter Nc
Celery, who engaged the Bishep in con-
versation. DR.. Simpson was plainly
dressed, and looking anything else than
bishop is commonly supposed to look.
Brother McCleery judged from his con-
versation that he was local preacher,
and the good bishop did not enlighten
him to the contrary. The preacher in
charge of the Duke Street Methodist
Episcopal church finally arrived, and
the bishop was introduced to him as
Brother Simpson, local preacher of
the Pittsburgh conference" After con-
siderable persuasion, the bishop was
prevailed upon to preach. What dis
appointment was visible upon the faces
of that congregation that morning.
They expected to be bored by "coun-
try clod-hopper." The bishop gave out
the opening hymn and then prayed.
Those who thought they were going to
be bored began to think differently,
and when the bishop announced his
text, "The greatest of all is charity"
expectation was on tip-toe. A grander,
more eloquent, more feeling discourse
was never delivered in that church. AS
the bishop was celebrating his points
and carrying his congregation to the
highest pitch by the magnificent round
ings of his sentences, the thought occur
red to the preacher sitting in the pulpit
that this must be Bishop Simpson, and,
upon concluding the sermon, the preach
er asked him: "Are you not Bishop
Simpson," The bishops modest and
naive reply was: "They call me so at
home" The preacher Immediately turn
ed faced the congregation and said /:
"You have had the extreme pleasure of
listening to Bishop Simpson.-Harris-
