Garland of Arkansas. .oi
Mr.. Blaine called upon President
Cleveland on the 18th, at the latter's
request. The meeting was hearty
one, and the two gentlemen were
closeted together for nearly an hour.
On the following day Mrs. Blaine,
accompanied by her son Walker and
her daughter Margaret, attended
Miss Cleveland's reception. Miss
Cleveland had never met either of
them before and the color came to
her face when Mrs. Blaine was pre-
sented. Miss Cleveland made their
short stay at the White House very
pleasant, paying them the most dis
tinguished attention. Soon after the
Blaines left Mrs. Logan passed in
and was presented. The calls of
Mrs. Blaine and Mrs. Logan caused
a sensation in political circles. Mr..
Blaine was to have given dinner to
the President last week.

From paper BY Henry King, on til.
Indian country with map) in the An
gust Century, we quote the following
"Uquestionsbly the tirst necessity of thu
situation is to strengthen, perfect, and
make uniform the liabilities of the ter
ritory. This can most safely and sue
ceesfully be accomplished, it is believed
by alloting lands to the Indians sever.
ally,-at the rate, say, of one hundred
and sixty acres per head,-and giving
them personal titles thereto, inalienable
fora stipulated number of years; and
providing for the disposal, at government
prices, of the unallotted and remaining
portions of their reservations, for their
benefit, to white settlers. In an allot-
ment of this kind. twelve million two
hundred and fifty thousand acres would
give each Indian, male and female, adult
and child, one hundred and sixty acres,
leaving over two-thirds of the whole
territory to be sold on their account
enough to bring them, at q low estimate,
forty million dollars, or more than five
hundred dollars per capita. Such allot.
ment and issuance of individual patents
would involve, of course, the dissolution
of tribal relations-another desirable
step in the adjustment of the general
question; and the Indian would thus be
put upon an even footing with the white
man as to the opportunities and advan-
tages of personal independence. At the
same time, the laws common throughout
the states for the punishment of crime
and the enforcement of contracts should
be extended over the territory, and
court established to administer them.
In short, the fimsy theory Of tribal SOW
ereignty should be extirpated,th the reser-
walton system replaced by fee-simple
grants in severalty, the surplus lands
opened to white settlement, and the In
dams placed under the restraint and pro-
lection of ordinary and impartial laws,
with a view to making them self-reliant
and self-supporting."

VenOmOus Snakes.

Much of the popular delusion concern
ing snakes is contradicted by Rheem, of
Smithsonian Institute. The venomous
hoop snake, which takes its tail in its
mouth and rolls along like hoop, and
the blow snake, the breath of which is
deadly, exist only Ill the Imagination.
The idea that serpents sting with the
tongue is erroneous. An impression pre-.
walls that the number of poisonous snakes
is great, but in North America there are
but three-the rattlesnake, the copper
head or moccasin, and the coral. Snakes
do not jump; they reach suddenly for
ward-perbaps half the length of their
bodies.

Bismarck Waning.
London Life

As the smallest details concerning the
personality of certain men are interest
iug, the subject Of the bodily weight of
Prince Bismarck might be suggested as
one fit for the serious consideration of
any enthusiastic German professor who
would take it up. Does "the man of blood
and irons" poundage vary with his pop
ularity, or do the cares of state affect him
more in some years than others? Atany
rate, statistics religiously preserved by
the person who keeps the weighing ma
chine at Kissengen read as follows: In
1874 the prince weighed POI pounds Ger
man); in 1875, 2l3 pounds; in 1876, 2,9
pounds; in 1877, 23O pounds; in 1878, 243
pounds; in 1879, 247 pounds: in 1880, 237
pounds; in 1881, 232 pounds, and in 1888.
202 pounds; the latest return being 205
pounds. 1t will be seen that the chan
cellor's bulk is decreasing. But there is
a lot of him left yet. Bye-the-bye hope

The Snspper's Triumph.

A hungry looking and unfortunate sea
snapper, with bloodshot eyes, lay or its
back on bench outside the New York
oyster house, on the west side of Ninth
street. below Locust, says the Philadel.
phia Press. The animal had been there
for three days, fit object for the atten-
ton of the society for the prevention of
cruelty to animals. A crowd of children
leased it by tickling it with sticks and
throwing pebbles at it, and the helpless
animal rolled its eyes around as if anx-
ious for death to come and end It's mis-
cries
Presently man with long hair and q
SLOUGH hat, accompanied by lady with a
sage-green umbrella and yellow dress,
came ambling down the street seeing
sights. The mans eyes fell on the snap
per. Here's snapper! What fun"
And he borrowed the sage-green UNI
brella and poked the poor fish in the
ribs.
"The great thing about sea snapper"
he continued, with an air of wisdom,
'.is their docility."
Then he adjusted his spectacles and
stroked the animal al! over, punching it
in the fat places.
Snap!
The philosopher gave a howl. His
finger was firmly grasped in the snap
per's mouth. The snapper clinched his
teeth and the man danced. Presently
the end Of the finger came off, and the
man, covered with blood, dashed to the
Pennsylvania hospital, where the stump
was trimmed and dressed. He gave the
name of Joseph Maglin, said he was so
years old, and lived at No. 304 Locust
street.
The snapper lay on the bench tor the
remainder of the day. It camly rolled
the piece Of Mr.. Maglin's anatomy be-
tween its teeth, and after it had ground
it all up sat there chewing the cud. 1t
looked happier than before the incident,
and there was q humorous twinkle in
bis eye. An hour after the occurrence
a sad-eyed oyster opener came out Of the
saloon and pasted placard bearing the
word dangerous" over its bench. But
the snapper's contented look did not
abate.
Mr.. Maglin sat up all night, occasion
ally yelling with pain, and wondering
what there was about sea snapper to
have prompted his curiosity.

"THE BRIDGEOF SIGHS."
One of the Interesting Sights In the Tombi
PrisOn-IIs History.

One of the Interesting Sights In the Tomb,
| PrisOn-lLs History.
New York Herald.
"The bridge of signs" is one of the OBJ
jects of interest pointed out to all visi-
tors to the Tombs prison. It is narrow
plank walk extending from the second
| tier of the male prison to the court OF
special sessions. On either side is an iron
railing. At one end is the heavy iron
prison door, and at the other the iron
door opening into the court room.
The name is all appropriate one. for
since the bridge was constructed, many
years ago, multitudes of wretched men
and women have passed over it with
bowed heads and bitter thoughts. Signs
over separation of man and wife, parents
and children-sighs over useful exis-
tence wrecked by the folly of moment
-sighs of old and young, educated and
ignorant-have been uttered by count
less thousands in the past, are heard
from many in the present.
The origin of the name is not clear.
Within the memory of the oldest prison
official living the walk has always borne
that title. There is rumor that in the
dim past i. went without distinguish
ing name, and that it was first called
"the bridge of signs" by an imaginative
newspaper man after witnessing par
ticularly affecting scene upon it, in
which young and handsome girl, who
had just been convicted, figured as the
principal. But however the name origi-
mated it has chung to the walk ever since
and will undoubtedly continue to do 80
as long as the structure itself lasts.
"The bridge of signs" does not include
among the host of offenders who annu-
ally cross it any of the most motor ious
criminals who are arrested. Murderers,
burglars, highwaymen, and the like pass
under it, but not over it. It's passengers
are the petty offenders-wife beaters,
sneak thieves, swindlers on a small
scale, persons convicted of assault and
battery, and those found guilty of mis-
demeanors of various kinds. Five thous.
and men and women on an average are
each year arraigned in the special ses-
sions, and of this number about two
thirds are convicted and pass over the
bridge of signs" to their prison cells,
there to await transportion to Black.
wells island.
But although their offences are of the
less grievous kind. there is no lack of
sorrowful leave-takings, no end of heart
rendering incidents. Many q young
man or woman here starts upon career
that eventually leads to long years of
imprisonment in the penitentiary or
states prison. It is not the hardened Of
fender who weeps over his sentence as
1.-The bridge ofsighs" stretches out before
him at the beginning of his punishment,
but the man or woman who. until then
of unblemished reputation. leaves
friends, relatives, home and position
behind. and sees ahead the convict's
dress and cell.

London Truth.
We went . few days ago to the con-
veraa1ione given by the academicans at
the Burlington house. The crowd was
something terrific; nevertheless, the
sight was highly effective.
As to the dresses. they were of all sorts
and descriptions, q few only, I am thank.
full to say, being noticeable by their
absurdity. The display of diamonds and
pearls was show indeed, Lady Henry
Lennon being especially conspicuous.
The show, however, of the evening
was provided by q couple of young girls.
They were apparently alone, but, in or
der that their twin solitude should not
pass unnoticed, the one wore bunch of
gigantic lilies, which stuck straieht up
in the air from her waist, while the 9th
er had her left shoulder completely OBJ
scured by an enormous poppy.

Some Of the Customs Observed by the Rus
sian and Polish Jews.
In that section of the city south o
Lombard street, between Second ant
Tenth streets, there have settled within
the past ten years, says the Philadelphia
Record, many hundreds of Russian, Bull
garian, Polish, Roum snian, and Serviar
Jews. and by the peculiarities of theil
habits and customs they have built uI
an exclusive community of their own
Even in the slums there is an aristocracy

husky-toned fakir who tramps the streets
with his tray of collar-buttons or other
trash has dived deep into the mysteries
of the Kebala, or has N his mind great
stores of Talmudic lore.
The condition of hundreds of these
wretched immigrants is miserable in the
extreme. In Catharine, st. Mary and
Bedford streets they live in huddled
masses. Most of these Hebrews are ex.
ceedingly pious. In the morning they
turn their faces to the east, and while
bending back and forward mutterin hur-
ried tones the gutteral notes of Hebrew
prayer. Some of the shrewder among
them have become very powerful by
starting stores to supply the little fakirs
and peddlers, and two of these men have
made small fortunes at this business.
In all their Loverty these people ad-
her with superstitious pertinacity to the
dietary laws prescribed by the Mosaic
code. All meats must be kosher (clean)
or no Jew will defile himself by eating
thereof. There is q kosher, ice dealer,
for they are afraid to use the ordinary
ice, fearing it is not clean. There are
even kosher bootblacks who do not use
the ordinary backing.
There are number of shules, or con-
gregations, among them. The rabbi is
sometimes shoemaker or q peddler,
but when he enters the shule, with his
silken taleth upon his shoulders, he is
changed man.
Just now this strange and unique COM
munity is highly agitated over two
things. One is the d. ath of their friend,
Sir Moses Montefore. This event is
greatly deplored. The other subject of

Recently there were two Polish we'd

this is thrown garment worn in the

Under this the rabbi slowly goes, and
