Women are self-conscious enough,
though, under certain conditions. /
don't believe that in all the fine collec-
lions of photographs exhibited this year
there are half dozen girls who have not
assumed the expression they were taken
in. It is curious to note the character
displayed in these unknown faces-the
bias toward the sentimental, as in that
young lady's with the fine eyes that gaze
anguishingly upward, with her pretty
hands elasped under her rather sharp
chin. AS rule, think thin girls most
affect the moon-struck attitude. A cast
Of melancholy does not suit excessive
avoirdupois. The fat ones affect dignity
as q general thing, and in fine reserve,
even haughtiness, indeed, before which
the bravest photographer must quail at
times.
Then there is the cynical expression,
though this is rare, and the expression of
extreme felicity and goodwill toward all
mankind, and the trustful, questioning
expression, and the debonnaire, saucy
look, like that upon the countenance of
the pretty girl In the sailor hat and
yachting suit. Men, rs q general thing,
affect either extreme sterness or lofty in
tellectuality in photographs, but man s
picture is more likely to be faithful re-
production of his common mood than a
woman is of hers. Inconsistencies, we
are told is the last effect of good breed
ing. II photographs are to be regarded
as indicating our possession of 1t, we have
not advanced very far-Toronto Globe.

BRUSH SEINE FISHING.
The Cornplanter Indians Novel Method
OF Catching Fish.

OF Catching Fish.
Fully a thousand people from James
town, Warren and neighboring places
went to Big Bend, on the Allegheny
river to witness the drawing of a brush
seine by the Cornplanter Indians. This
was the first time q brush seine had
been drawn in the Allegheny river in
ten years, and, it becoming known that
the fun was to take place, called out
o great crowd of whites, who stood by
and witnessed the capture of about 1000
pounds of bass, pike and pickerel by the
sons of the forest.
This method of fishing is novel, and is
prohibited by the laws of Pennsylvania,
but the noble red man, like necessity,
knows no law except that of supply and
demand, and when he gets ready to fish,
the county jails have no terrors for him.
When q seine is to be drawn delegation
of Indians select a location where the
water is very deep and ending in long,
shallow rifle. Here they go into camp
and begin cutting brush, the butts of
which are deity woven together, leaving
the bushy end loose. When this has
reached length sufficient to cross the
stream one end is carried over and made
fast to a tree. The loosely constructed
drag is then interviewer with other
branches, among which are fastened
large stones, pieces of iron and junk,
until the lower side of the drag rests on
the bottom of the stream.
The seine is now completed, and on the
first bright day the main body of Indians
arrives and the fun opens. They are di-
vided into three squads. One of these,
armed with spears or harpoons, is sta
toned on the rifle, and the other two are
delegated to draw the seine. Soon after
the drag begins moving the fish start
down stream, and the scene becomes ami
mated in the extreme. Swarthy braves,
dressed q la Newport, dash here and
there in the shallow water, driving a
spear through a ten-pound pickerel or a
half-pound bass with the same energy
| and skill, and all the time keeping up an
unearthly yelling that resounds for miles
| through the forests. AS the seine moves
slowly down stream the excitement in
| creases, and the Indians seem wild with
delight as fish after fish, in endless vari-
ETY., is thrown Hopping and twisting upon
| the banks, to be taken care of by the old
| men. The sport at Big Bend lasted
nearly two hours, and when the work was
done they had captured a wagon box
full, the catch being estimated at two
thousand pounds.-Jamestown IN. Y,

senate, which, in the past, steadily refused to
receive or discuss any proposed amendment

LONDON, Nov. !. - Considerable excite
ment has been created in ministerial circles
by dispatches from Cabul, Afghanistan
stating that the Ghilzia tribe, joined by re-
nowned robber chief, Sadu, under the COM
mand of the sons of the notorious Mushki
Alum Molah, have revolted against the
ameers rule, and near Ghuznee attacked and
dispersed an Afghan regiment that was
escorting treasure. The latter with q num-
Der of prisoners, fell into the hands of the
rebels. The rising is attri buted to discomfort
at the excessive taxation which is being
levied by the Afghan government. 1t is
feared that unless the revolt Is at once put
down Russia will seize the opportunity of
sending troops into Afghanistan on the plea
of restoring order and will thus advance an
other step toward India

a Narrow Escape form Lynching-

HARRISON, Ark, Nov. "details have
Just reached this place of the cold blooded
murder at his home in Marion county, on the
23d of October, of James N. Hamilton, late
deputy collector of internal revenue in the
office of Henry NJ. Cooper, at Little Rock.
About two years ago Hamilton, while &C
ting as deputy collector of internal revenue,
made a raid in johnson county on a number
of Illicit distillers, among whom was man
by the name of Mulligan, capturing one Of
the distillers and managing to get here with
their crooked property. Mulligan was
,pue of those who escaped, and moth
ing more was heard of him until a short time
ago, when he came to the home of Hamilton
VINO was residing on farm in Marion county,
ard applied for work on the farm, giving his
name as Page Hamilton employed him. and
he worked until last Friday night without at
tracing any particular attention. On that
night he left Hamilton's and went to the
house of Il Geighbor, about half-mile dis
tant, to spend the night. After the family
had retired for the night Page, or Mulligan
left the house, and going back to
Hamilton's crept into the latter's
bedroom, and as he lay asleep
placed pistol to his head, blew out his
brains and fed. Mrs. Hamilton gave the
alarm, and, there being some men about the
place, the neighbors We're soon aroused and
in purs nit of the murderer. A party OF
citizens caught him short distance from
the house, and placing rope around his
neck made him confess his crime. Just as
they were in the act of lynching him, an
other party of citizens came up, and the
lynchers, supposing them to be officers, left
their man and scattered. Mulligan, taking
advantage of the excitement, escaped, but
was recaptured the next day and taken to
Yellville, where he is now in Jail.
Hamilton had twice been elected sheriff
and twice circuit clerk of Searcy county.
He was four years deputy collector of ill.,
ternal revenue and was a candidate for sher-
if in the recent election.

PROGRESS OF THE INDIANS.
Annual Report of j. ID. G. Atkins, Com
missioner of Indian Affairs.


WASHINGTON CITY, Nov. 1.-The annual
report of J. D. C. Atkins, commissioner Of
Indian affairs, gives very encouraging ac-
count of the indus trial progress Of the In
dians. He says the race is rapidly advanc-
ing on the road to civilization, which is
evidenced by their increased desire to obtain
lands in severalty and improved agricultural
tools. More land was cultivated by Indians
last year than ever before, more Indian chill
dren were received into government schools,
there was more tranquility among them,
and generally the indications are for better
state of affairs with continued and rapid im-
provement, which he urges that the govern
ment encourage. He opposes the opening Of
Oklahoma to whita settlers, and recommends
the elf-governing Indians of Indian terri
tory to allot their lands in farms to all their
people and adopt a territorial government
with the ultimate object of becoming one of
the states and taking full citizenship. He
defends his course in taking out of the hands
of Indian agents the power of appointing
their own clerks and says it has worked adj
mirably SO far
