How to ho,p Your Husband at Homo.


 A few days ago q Detroit wife was reading a newspaper article which ticklod her almost to death. "How to Keep Your Husband at Home," and ii was about .he Troy wife who turned the sitting room into saloon and thus welded her husband 10 his home and kept him in nights.
 This Detroit wife cackled and grinned and cackled again, and vow cd that she'd follow the plan to the last detail. That evening, when her husband had finished his supper and was making rush for his hat to go down and see a nan OF SIoo, 900 worth of business, the exultant wife led him into the library. There was sawdust on the floor, six big sIittoons artislically arranged around the room, and bar on which rested half doz- en bottles of beer and a supply of beer glasses.
 My angel wife, may heaven bless you!" exclaimed the husband, as he looked around him and took in all the details.
 Then he walked around and expecto- rated in each spittoon, and he walk ed up to the bar and swore like a trooper and called for beer. When he had drank it he kicked over the chairs and said he was just as good as Vanderbilt or any other man. When he had imbibed some more beer he kicked over the bar and broke the bottles, and as soon as his wife began to talk politics he blacked her eye and went in to clean out the place When the neighUors finally got the man quietcd down, things were end wise and crosswise all over the house, while half the ncighborhood were hunting for fre-alargl box and the other half for the pclcs. When the hystericky wife had finally explained her plan to the mob filing the parlor, the husband sat up on end amidst the wreck, and waved his fists about aud shouted;
 "You beg your boozl Nicesz s'locn in zhis townl Nicesz wife in D'lroit. Everybody come up'n drlz at my 'spenz! Whoop! Wherever man who wan'zer run out nights1"

THE MAGDALENA PRISONERS.

The six U, s. citizens who are members of G. A. R, post at Tomb stone, have had some sort of trial and are released from close confinement. They are held under guard for the approval ofa higher court at Hermo- sillo. A. l.. Grow, commander of Burnside Post, vouched for the men as being innocent of any ofense against the laws of Mexico. The mayor of Tombstone and citizens Of that place in connection with Burr side post of that place, were about to take active measures for the release of these men in the event the general Government did not demand it.
 E. NJ. Winecoop, department com mandcr, rendered the assistance of the G. A. R. of New Mexico and the post commander at Tucson endorsed 1t with a characteristic dispatch, "Ii you want help beat the long roll. " Gen. Ransom Post, of this place, has anticipated some instructions in the matter and were ready to a man, as were every post in the department to go to the relief of their imprisoned comrades in Sonora.

Lord Pal1enhnm,s Wan Horse.
From tie GainesvilIe Ea0le.

From tie GftneSCfHe Ed0te.
1t is a we'll established fact, the horse
that Gen. Pakenham rode at the battle
of New Orleansg January 8, 1915, and the
very one on whose back he was probably
killed, was brought to Hall county about
1925, and died near Gainesville in 1880.
Thomas Bird, one Of the earliest settlers
of Hall county, fixed his home ON the east
bank Of the ChattahoOchee river, at the
Shallow Ford, on the ROAD leading from
Gainesville TO Dahlonega.
On one Of his visits 10 Alabama, on a
racing tour, he, by some means, got pos
session of the celebrated horse that is the
subject Of this article, and brought him,
though then quite old, TO his beautiful
Georgia home for breeding purposes. Be-
ing an expert in horse1esh, and thorough
ly satisfied that the horse was the one
that Pakenham had brought from India
20 England, and from thence 20 the United
States, he was convinced that IL was of
pure Arabian stock, and determined TO
take advantage OF the opportunity 20 inn
prove his own. After keeping him seY-
eral years, Mr.. Bird died. and the old
horse passed into other hands, and finally
into the hands OF the father Of our in
fOrmant; and he, when boy,
used 10 water and wash "Old Paken-
ham," as he was called, at the branch
that crosses the sulphur Spring road be-
yond New Holland. just 10 the right Of
the road, and on the bank Of the stream,
stands a scrubby tree with two bodies,
Joined together by a ligature, something
like the siamese twins. IL was under this
tree that the boy used To hold the veneer

stantly rocking motion, acquired. II was

The Torture of the sun Dance.


On Friday the Lieutenant Governor,
Col. Oswald, Adjt.-Mai. Atkinson, Mai.
Laurie, Capt. Stevenson and Dr.. Elder
visited Pi-a-Pot's reserve and saw the sun
dance. The beauty Of the situation OF Pr
a-Pot's reserve was greatly admired. sur
rounded as it is by forest. There were 1850
wigwams, and about 1000 Indians all
told. The sun dance took place in the
centre of the camp, in large wigwam
constructed OF branches Of trees, put to-
gether in q most artistic manner. On a
sort of balcony were a mum Der of braves
with whistles, who beat time to the music
they made-very mournui music it was.
They mad been going on turning and play
ing the whistles and beating time Tor
torty-eight hours, and without morsel Of
food.
On the second day the party saw one
man tortured. He was naked, save for a
thin pair Of drawers, and painted lurid,
whitish color. one Of the medicine men
came up and thrust wooden skiver in mis-
breast, and then tied round the skin above
the hole made by the skiver piece of
tape SO as TO draw ii up tightly. The tape
or cord was attached 70 a beam, and the
tortured brave moved round in time to the
tune, the skin being drawn out about six
inches from the breast.
