GOlnES and Gatherings

Last Friday morning. after purchas-
ing little strip of pasteboard for one
dollar and fortY-One cents. boarded
Richardson's tr4in-took breakfast at
Madison-did duty beside three such
eaters as Van Holmes, Holden and the
coaductor-got dinner in Eureka
boarded train for Yates Center-did
that little cItY-hired team and drove
out tn Buffalo Creek, and slept in
little room where had lodged sixteen
years before.
Buffalo creek begins its race among
some beautiful mounds, Six or seven
miles south Of Yates Center, and runs
into the Verdigris river near Guilford.
The bottom lands are good, but the up
lands are suitable only for grazing. The
man who turns the sod on these sandy
hills is sure TO get things wrong side
mp. Corn, oats and millet look we'll.
The orchards are loaded with fruit.
On Saturday took dinner and supper
in an old cabin which has little his
tory. II was built on claim about
eighteen years ago. After that claim
was pre-empted 1t was moved onto an
other, and so on till several claims had
been pre- empted. 1t was then bought,
removed, and turned into q school house.
After it had served its time as temple
of learning, some four years, its present
owner purchased and moved it into his
back yard and fitted it up for o summer
kitchen. He now thinks of moving II
back and turning it into pig-sty. II
seems to me there are too many precious
home and school memories gathering
about the homely old thing to desecratG
1t in that way. But the old cabins mus
go.
On Sunday, alter preaching and ad

A Little Girl Sent by Express


At the Buffalo, New York and Phila
delphia station, yesterday, on the arrival
of the 2:55 train, there stepped down a
pert little Miss of possibly four winters
and us many sumers. Upon her hat was
pinned label, with the words Titus
willie, Crawford county, Pa" and a
similar one decorated her waist. These
labels told more OF her than she herself
could tell, for she only knew that she
was Maggie. the daughter of John Bren.
nan. 1t seems that she came from
Southport, starting yesterday morning,
and though without ticket or money
had come through direct and
without missing a connection
Inquiry further developed the
fact that several days ago Brennan, who
resides at Selkirk, or Grand Valley, in
quired at the express Office for little
girl who was to come through by ex
press 1t was this knowledge that ena-
bled McVelia, of the express company
To tell where the precocious child be
l0nged. james Pettigrew took her in
charge, and she will be sent To her father

Indian tradition orss.e Deruee,

Several of the leading men of the Mus.
quake tribe of Indians, from their reser-
Yation in Tema County, were here last
week as witnesses before the federal
grand jury to testify against parties who
sold whisky to one of the best men of
the tribe, grandson of old Powshek,
the famous chief, by which he got drunk
and fell into the river and was drowned.
They were here in charge of George Dav-
airport, their agent, who was born among
the Indians at Rock island, and in whom
they have great confidence. Mr. DaYen-
port related many incidents in the history
Of the Sacs and Foxes, who formerly oc-
cupied this territory. The Musquakies
are the remnants of these tribes Mr.
Davenport says they observe religious
rites which closely resemble those of the
ancient Hebrews. They have q bible, of
which there are several copies among the
tribe, which were ancient and preserved
with care. Each Bible consists of twenty
seven parts. It is written in characters
and signs known only TO them. They Mt
ter prayers to q supreme being in q Ian
guage entirely different from that in
which they converse usually. What il
Is Mr.. Davenport has never been able to
learn, nor has he been able to get copy
Of their Bible. They get from their BIZ
bic tradition which corresponds with
our account of the Deluge; and one day
when Mr.. Davenport was trying TO ex-
plain TO them the existence of God and
his relation to man, and also Noah and
the Deiuge, one of the chiefs replied:
aBgh ne know that long time. We
was all in q canoe tied together. On
top heap water. We put down muskfat
lone, two, good many times. He come
up. Last time he go down, he come dp
be bring mud. We know water go down.
Their religious rites are held In secret.

On a. Lady's Violin.

Long, long ago, this priceless thing
Grew strong, amid the feathered quire,
In leafy shades whose whispering
Made all the tree-Iop seem a Tyre.
Prophetic sang the forest breeze
How from the heart of ancient trees
A violin should come to birth
and teach the tongues of heaven on earth.
Sad years have melowed its long life
10 swee ness; built when Charles was King,
MA discord of Italian STRIFE,
IL dared high harmony to sing.
But after storm, what gentler rest
inan where its frame is lightly prest-
maiden's bosom, skilled to make
les heart to tremble for her sake
Its voice is wbereso'er she stays.
She ls not known where it is mute
As Cicily on organs plays,
Or as Apollo wears the lutte.
or as her wheel in paintings fine
makes men discern pure Catherine,
SO they who hear this viol play
Cry Mora is not far awayr'
Then straight in quest of her they 60
And gather round her where she stands
Quickening the nerves with quivering bow,
realm OF sound in her young hands,
one Yields the sceptre, swift and fine,
Inc other moves foom line to line,
assessing with unconsci us care
The 9olian tribute of the air.
If the maid mourns, when others fam
Would sit apart aud rock and cry,
These strings tell all the house her pain,
Setting her woe to melody;
And as the healing tones take wing,
They steal The tears that made them sing:
And sacred whosesoe'er it be,
Is music that sets sad hearts free!
Sometimes the maid rejoices so
That weak words fail SO glad Is shei
Then is her pent hearts overflow
Released by must IS ecstasy
Music, tn At schools the maiden mind
10 passion, teaching it to find
High thoughts, which make life holy ground
Enthroned within the world of sound.
If | this Jealous creature take.
And draw the bow across the string,
No demon shall such screenings make
AS issue from my fngeriDgi
In these yhands what lack the wit
~T6%N Drain and heart and it.
IT'S b. dead aud hollow toy
In hers it lives, a voice of joyl
would had her cunning art
10 tune and play on living strings
To seek and find the worlds lost heart.
And kindle charm in common things
Till all iife's ruined belfries chime,
And sunless dials tell the time
As she makes worth their weight in gold
These vacant panels, centuries old.
And like her VOL, tuned I'd be.
So that if goodness pass my way,
And deign to stoop and handle me,
may not mar the heavenly lay.
Thrice happy lives. though all else fade,
On whom The Masters touch is laid
They render, lying in his hand,
Music too sweet to understand.
Good Words.
