Pioneer Girls Of the plaina

In travelling over the prairies one now
and then comes across lonely shack,
which, with its surroundings, wears an
aspect of neatness which distinguishes
it from the average carelessly thrown
together shanty that suffices to prove
the claimants right to the title of pro-
prietor to the 100 acres surrounding. If
of boards the cracks are carefully bat
tened with lath; if of logs, the .crevices
are closely plastered with mud hardy
morning-glories cling around the door
way and creep along the humble caves,
while small plats, smiling with violets,
larkspur, lovebeil and honcysuckle
transplanted from the prairie, hover
around the modest domicile, true indi-
ces to the female spirit that rules with
in.
The novelty of their situation seems
to charm these women pioneers. Their
face and form are the embodiments of
happiness and health they as heartily
enjoy tramp over the prairie in search
of the boundary lines of their claim, as
the society girl enjoys trip in q dog
cart or sail on the lake. They become
adopts in the use of the rifle or shotgun;
they learn to handle the harvester as
deftly as their masculine neighbors, and
ride the sulky plow with as much grace
as her refined sister would ornament a
a tricycle.. The majority of these pio-
neers are schoolmistresses, who pursue
their Greek, Latin, astronomy, botany
or chemistry during their leisure mo-
n1ients i'll their prairie home during the
summer and pursue their vocation in
village Or city school room during the
winter months. Thus they preserve
their health, keep up their studies, and
slowly but surely build up for themselves
home that they can point to with Just
pride as the fruit of their own labor.
The hardships and trials which these
brave little pioneers undergo are enough
to shake the courage of the sterner sex
Mrs. Bael, young widow, came to the
territory two years ago. built her claim
shack, which was twice blown away by
tonadoes and once burned to the
ground, but through her indomitable
will she is still there, and. Gays she is
bound to stay. Miss Nellie Uline. the
daughter of Col Uline OF Chicago; has
her homestead near the DEVILS lake, is
a tireless pedestrienne. crack rifle sho.
and possesses accomplishments which
fit her for the leadership of any refined
society in which she may move. Miss
Hoover. the Misses Pringle, Miss Flynn
Miss Bruce, Miss Marks. Miss Olson
Miss Shottwell and the Misses Phelps
who, through their pluck and persever
ance, have gained fine homestead anG
built up little fortune of $4,000, are
but few Of the great army OF women
who deserve the highest praise for theil
fortitude and Chicago

AT FL Paso, Mexican dollars are worth
eighty-five cents in American coin. At
Paso Del Norte, just across the river,
American dollars are worth eiehty-five
cents in Mexican coin. One morning a
car driver started from the American
side with a Mexican dollar. On his ar
rival in the Mexican town he took a
drink Of chain lightning, which was
fifteen cents, and received an American
dollar in change for his Mexican. On
his return to the American side he took
a drink of equally bad liquor and re-
ceiyed a Mexican dollar for his Ameri-
can, and so repeated the drinks at in
teryals during the day, and at night he
closed up business with the Mexican
dollar he started with In the morning

Why the Chinese Take Heads.

The Chinese custom of decapitating
their enemies slain in war is explained
by the statement that they believe that
the appearance of a person in the spirit
world without head is prima facia ev-
idence of having committed some crime
and punishment is awarded according
ly. Hence the horrible mutilations
which took place on the evacuation of
Shanghai by the Taipings, when the
imperial officers gave the orders for the
decapitation of every rebel body and
even the cofiins containing the remains
of prominent rebel leaders were broken
open and dishonored to insure their
punishment hereafter. Hence, also, the
anxiety displayed 10y the friends of Off
GERS who lost their heads during the re-
belliOn to recover them and stitch them
on the bodies again so much as six
hundred and fifty-nine dollars having
been paid by the officers of the imperial
army for the head of friend.
