The Aleutian Islands.

Lieut.. Ray, in Indianapolis News.
Lieutcnant you had an opportu-
nifty of examining, curiously, at
least, the possessions Of the United
States in the far northwest. Is
there any part OF Alaska going to
this countryi
"The Aleutian islands, | am sat
isded, will be Of considerable irpor-
tance.n
''In what wayr
"For grazing. They stretch out
to within five hundred miles Of
Asia, the extreme point being far
tler west OF San Francisco than
the extreme point OF Maine is east
of il, and the entire southern coast
is swept by the warm current from
the Japan sea. The result is a eli
mate nearly the counterpart OF that
OF Southern Ireland. We have %
signal station on one OF them, and
the lowest temperature recorded in
the past seven years is six degrees
above zero. While the Leo was be-
ing repaired 1 went into the in
terror of the island a distance OF
six or seven miles. The grass, rich
aud heavy, was as high as my
knees, and, although 1t was in the
middle of September, the frost had
not touched in. A better graMDg
prospect never viewed"

The Art OF Thinking.

Teachers Institute.
Tue object of the teacher IS 10
teach to think. fhe pupil thinks
enough, but he thinks loosely, in
coherently, indefinitely aud vague
~. He expcnds power enough on
his mental work, but it Is poorly
applied. Tho teacher points out
to him these indefinite or incoher-
ent results, and demands logical
statements OF hIm. Here is tho
positive advantages the teacher Is
to the pupil.
Let us suppose two pupils arc
studying the same lesson in geo.
grapby or gammar or history. One
reads to tue facts he fastens his
eye on the page and his mind to
the subject before him; he makes
the book study aud acquires in-
formation from It; his object is
to acquire knowledge. He attains
this end. The other also studies
the book, but while reading ha is
obtaining lessons in thinking. He
does not merely commit to memory;
he stops to see il the argument is
sound, he analyses IL to see II the
conclusion is warranted by the
premises.
The one who thinks rs lie reads
is quite ditternent, 1t will be seen
from him who simply learns as he
reads. To read and think, or think
as one reads, is the end to seek.
To teach to thiuk is then the art
of the teacher. The reader tor
facts gets facts; he comes 10 the
recitation seat aud re,ls of facts.
His mud, like Edison's phono-
graph, gives back just what 1t re-
ceived. While this power Is val.
liable it is not the power the world
wants.
The teacher will find his pupils
come to the recitation to transmit
the facts they have gained. He
must put them in quito another
frame of mind. Instead of recita-
tons they must be made iuto
thinkers.
The value of the teacher Is mea-
sured by his power to teach the art
OF thiaking.

Learn To Wait.

Learn to wait-Life's hardest lesson,
Conned. perchanee, through binding
tears;
While the heart throbs sadly echo
To the tread Of passing yeais-
Learn to wsit-hope's slow fruition;
Faint not, though the way seem long;
There is joy in each condition,
Hearts through suffering may grow
strong.
Constant sunshine. howe'er welcome,
Ne'er would ripen fruit aud flower;
Giant oaks own half their greatness
10 the seathing tempest's power.
Thus the soul, untouched by sorrow,
Aims not at higher state
Joy seeks not a brighter morrow
Only sad hearts learn TO wait.
Human strength and human greatness
Spring not from life's sunny side;
Heroes must be more than drift-wood,
Floating on waveless tide.

NELL AND CHRIS.

country churchyard dear mamma

The South Sea Islanders.

Occasionally at Honolulu one sees
consignment of South Sea islanders
from the Feejees, the New Hebrides,
and the navigator group (all whilom
cannibal islands) freshly landed from
sailing ship and lying about in q sort
OF shambles at the docks. Nothing to
which we are accustomed resembles
this race in brutality of aspect and low
animal type of humanity. The men
are low of stature, sinewy, sturdy, with
black skins, wool, strong large teeth,
CLASSY eyes, a half-famished look, and
an appearance of rare cum NJ and fe-
rocity. Their ears are often studded
with human teeth, their wool dressed
with sharks teeth, while their own
white teeth glisten in the sunshine like
ivory. Indeed there is an Unmistakable
air of cannibalism all about them. The
women are fat, oily, animal looking,
and indecent. In fact, il is a matter of
surprise to American and Sandwich
islander alike, to see such gross, vul-
gar, cruel, murderous wretches, fit
only for their own savage state,
brought to these settled shores for the
purpose of employment upon the sugar
plantations, to labor side by side with
intelligent Chinese, Portuguese, and
Hawaiians.
1t is no wonder that several of these
brtes are lying in the dungeons of the
prison on the reef, guilty and convict
ed of the vilest and most revolving
classes of crimes. But even such mis-
cradle creatures long for their homes
and freedom, and are willing to risk
their restitution with their lives. Only
few days before / sailed from Homo
lulu band of these wild men broke
from their quarters at night on the
island of Man, and, seizing small
boat, quickly put out to sea, in the
vain, foolish hope of regaining their
native islands and the companionship
OF their cannibal brothers couple of
thousand miles away.
On the whole, however, it is better to
bring these uneivilizable savages to the
Sandwich islands for the experiment of
Christianization rather than to send
wholesome missionaries to them in
their own Cannibal islands, with the
chance ahead of being summarilv con-
verted into ragouts for the dainty,
tooth of heather but hungry chief
and that of his smiling squaws and in
Vlted guests, to the monotonous music
OF a drum corps of tom-toms.

Funny ChimpanZees.

The keeper of the chimpanzees at the
Geological Garden placed a doll-baby
in their cage the other day. 1t was
clothed in a red dress that attracted
the attention of the animals in a mo-
ment. At first they stood at respect
full distance and hoo-hooed at it to
show that they had not fallen in love
with it at first sight. Then they began
to stamp on the floor to scare it away
Finding this unavailing, the big one
dashed up to within foot of the pas
sive baby, stamping and chattering
but, finding that the strange thing did
not bulge, she turned tail and fed.
The little one was not to be outdone,
although she was evidently greatly in
fear of it, so she held her blanket up
in front of her while she approached,
but she did not go far. After while
the big one was brave enough to 60
quite near, SO that with a straw she
could tickle the newcomer under the
chin. The dollnever stirred. The end
of the straw was examined and smelt
by the two animals, and nothing harm
full being found they ventured to touch
it. They then scampered to the top of
Ailcl IL WIlilG 0Ob
the better of fear, and they returned to
the inspection, which was mostly con-
fined to sitting in front of it and max
ing faces at it. The keeper tied the
figure to swinging rope. The big
one dragged it bv the hem of its gar
ment to the box in which they sleep
They placed it inside and at once exc
cuted war dance on the top. The
little one stopped her noisy sister with
vicious cuff and drew out the unfortu-
nate. Then sitting on the floor, she
held it in her arms as if it had been a
real baby of her own. After making
evident fun of this ssoft-heartedness, the
other pulled the doll away and deliber-
ately sat on its head, striking the body
with the palms of her hands. While she
was endeavoring to regain the play
thing the dress did not long remain in
tact. After this they hauled the body
about the cage, up the tree aud on to
the cross-beam. and then threw it to
the ground. One piece of the dress
they used for a necktie. and another
was turned into a head-dress, with
which one of them adorned herself be-
fore the mirror in the corner of the
cage.

A South American Snake Story

In Paraguay, at Guaza-Cua, woman
going to bathe in the lake laid her child
down under neighboring tree and
walked down to the water. A giboia,
however, was on the lookout for prey
at the shore, sprang at her and seized
her before she could escape. Soon af-
terwards a horseman passing near
heard some cries, and on examining
around saw the child alone under the
tree. Suspecting some disaster he rode
down to the lake and there saw a huge
snake swallowing the woman, who was
already drawn in up to the waist. Has
tily tying his two lassoes together, the
man threw the moose over the woman
and under her arms, and spurring his
horse, succeeded in drawing the un-
fortunate woman's still palpitating
body from the throat of the disappoint-
ed monster. Whether the woman sur
vived is not stated. d.-Afsgto-B Brazilian

A Paris Notability.

Charles Howard, the millionaire of
Vermont is to leave $1,000, 600 to his
niece, Mrs. Evans, the wife of the
wealthy Partisan dentist. Evans is al
ready several times a millionaire, and
this will be pretty addition to his
fortune, which is increasing at the rate
OF hundreds of thousands yearly. 1t is
generally supposed that he made the
most of his fortune in filing teeth. But
this is mistake, as the following talk
with one of the oldest dentists in the
United States, a man who was wears
ago connected with one of the imperial
courts of Europe, will show:
';Dr. Evans" said the gentleman,
''was born in Lancaster county,
Pennsylvania, and he started life as a
jewelers. apprentice in Lancaster, the
same town in which Buchanan began
life as young lawyer. He went to
Paris as a dentist in a few years.
when did he become court dentistp"
81 do not know the time, he saws,
understand, he was filling Eugenie's s
teeth when Louis Napoleon came to his
office for some dental work, and that
here the two met, and from that meet
ing afterward sprang their marriage.
Napoleon owed much to Evans in
many ways. You know be saved the
life OF Eugenie one night as she left the
Grand opera-house, and an attempt
was made to assassinate Napoleon by
throwing hand grenades. He after
ward aided Eugene in escauing r, En-
gland, and went with her ir 1870 At
this time everyone els had deserted
the empress, and she fled to DR.. Evans
mousse. LIS doctors wife was at the
SSeeash'cCre, and Eugene dressed in Mrs.
Avans clothing, was passed off by Ev-
ans as his wife, and driven in his own
carriage to the Norman coast. Thence
they got boat to England.
DIR. Evans" this gentleman went
on, ''ls worth several millions, and he
has grand palace in Paris. His office
practice in the Rue de la Paix nets him
probably 500, 900 a year, but this. is not
how he has made the most of his mon
ey. When Napoleon was president of
the republic he was quite poor. He
dled very wealthy, and much of his
money was made through Evans Ma
poleon knew what action was going to
be taken on public matters, and he also
knew how this would affect stocks. If
he could use his information in buyinp
and selling he could make large sums
easily. But it would not do for Ma
poton to be connected with a broker.
1here must be some trusty go-between,
added to safe banker. Evans, | am
told by good authority, was the go-be-
tween, and his position as dentist
enabled him to do it TO the best ad-
vantage. He had access to Napoleon
at all hours, and he was the only one
who could take precedence over the
cabinet and everyone else. He attend
ed him at his toilet at s o'clock in the
morning, and was on as close terms
with Eugenie as with Louis Napoleon.
''One day Eugene said to him: "Dr.
Evans, at IL o'clock tomorrow an
order will be issued withdrawing the
troops from Rome Evans at once
went to the broker and invested in GER
tain securities which he knew would be
affected. At II o'clock the next day.
after the order was issued, these Sc
curities went up like shot, and Evans
made 500, OF course, Eugenie
came in for her share of the money.
