The legends of Dai Nippon contain
many illusions to the prowess of their
swordsmen and the superiority of their
weapons. Like the famous Toledo
blades of medieval times, the swords
of the Yamahto Damashii were cele
brated and up to the revolution of, say,
thirty years ago expert workmanship
vas n necessary accomplishment for the
Samurai or aristocratic class.
Every male member of this class was
entitled to-and did from early boy
hood-carry two swords, one long and
the other short. The ceremonial attend
ing the carriage and use of these
weapons was very elaborate. Two men
passing each other on the street we're
very careful not to allow the scabbards
of their long swords to touch, for this
would have been considered tantamount
to a challenge and a duel would in
eyitably result.
When the noble entered a house the
master came forward bowling three
times, with that peculiar inspiration of
the breath which travellers note even
to day among the Japs, and received
the long sword of his guest upon a silk
handkerchief, conveying it with profound
ceremony to a lacquer and gold cabinet
in which slots were made to serve rs
sword racks.
In the hilt of the short sword was
contained the dagger with which the
ceremonial suicide, sometimes called
Hara-Kiri Tor more properly Seppu-Ku),
was performed, and for this act and as
|sasination only, was the dagger used.

Three Philadelphia bellies attracted
considerable attention on an east bound
passenger train. They had been to
california, had visited the National
park, and were en- route home. While
in the park the young ladies manu-
featured dresses of leaves and MOSES,
which they gathered from the glens and
brooks along the route. The dresses
were most artistically made, and were
as beautiful as novel. The plan of CON
struction vas the same as that used in
the construction of paper dresses. The
ground work, or foundation, was cloth,
and the leaves and MOSES were artist
cally sewed upon the same. The leaves
were the most beautiful ornaments,
every tint Of the autumn forests being
represented.
The dresses were made under an
agreement between the young ladies
that the novel costumes should be worn
at the first ball given at their homo in
the Keystone state. But the dresses
were too beautiful to remain in their
trunks. The temptation to appear in
them and create a sensation was too
great to be resisted, and the other
morning they donned them, and took
particular pains to appear on the plat
form at every station in order that their
genius and art might be appreciated.

THE FORT LARAMIE POST oTFICE
HOHnERN L.

The LEADER is in receipt Of a com
m%unication from Fort Laramie in regard
to the arrest of . young boy who is charged
with stealing $3.50 from the post office at
that place.
Our correspondent takes the boy side,
claiming that his hat was thrown or fell
INTO the window of the post Office build
ING, and that he ran into the post Office to
recover his hat, whereupon the charge of
theft was made against him. 1t is claimed
the boy is wholly guiltless. The boy was
bound over after investigation. and is now
in the Cheyenne jail, subject to the action
of the grand jury.
In addition to the foregoing facts stated
by our correspondent, his communication
contains several libelous charges against
Postmaster Hart, Post Trader London
and the employees Of the Fort Laramie
post Office, which THE LEADER must de-
cline to publish as they come from a
source unknown to us, while the accused
parties are well known gentlemen of estab-
lished reputation and first class standing
as business men and officials, THE LEADER
trusts that the boy may be proven inno-
cent, but he will not be tried in the news
papers. The courts have the matter now
in charge, and all the evidence that the
friends of the boy may have to present
should be laid before the proper authori-

Just now physicians are recognizing a
definite class Of coffee drunkards and
tea drunkards. 1t is no longer possible
for n slave of coffee to set his nerves
bristling and make a violent temperance
attack on the men who use brandy in
stead without being called to account
for it. lie requires his coffee immedi-
ately IN ri Using; he braces up with it two
or often ten times a day, and yet classes
himself as a stout temperance man.
Tea as a tipple is certainly milder, but
whether in the long run it is a temper
ance drink is open to doubt.
A recent note from an English physi-
clan of high rank says there is no doubt
but the excessive use Of tea by women
is producing an inherited nervousness
and fretfulness that quite outweighs the
average damage done by alcohol.

TnE free traders recently in session in
Chicago are fighting the battle of the
British manufacturers and the New York
importers as against American interests.
They want to break down American pro-
duction and trade. This is what free
trade means-this and nothing more. So
long as the American people have sense
enough to see that American industry and
material development are the source and
the basis of American prosperity, wealth
and commercial independence, they will
not be deluded by the labored sophistries
of the hobby riding free traders into an un-
conditional surrender of their interests for
the sake OF gratifying England. The
United States will continue to protect her
own interests against foreign encroach-
menis, by adhcring TO the principles of
protection to home industry. The free
trade bloyiaters ought TO have found out
this fact long ago.

TuE German Americans of Chicago
signalzed their respect for the memory
of the great poet Schiller recently by cele-
brating the anniversary of his birth by
laying the corner stone of a monumon. to
be erected in Lincoln park. The occasion
was an interesting one to all concerned.
The determination of our German citizens
to honor and perpetuate the great poets
memory in bronze is to their great credit.
Schiller was one of the greatest of Ger
many's scholars and poets, and wherever
literature and philosophy are honored his
name is cherished. lie has a large place
in the German heart, and the scholars of
all nationalities are admirers OF his works.

The manager of IN electric company
says that it is found that whenever
steam is used to obtain twenty five
horsepower or less, electricity is more
economical. The advantages are: a
smaller space occupied, much less noise

There is no boiler required and no fire,
