STRING MUSIC.
The Piano Giving Way to the Harp,
Banjo and Guitar.

The Piano Giving Way to the Harp,
Banjo and Guitar.
The good old fashion which existed
many years ago of giving the harp the
place in the estimation of unsteady in
clined people, which has since been
usurped by the piano, is on the point of
being revived. Every music store now
carries several harps in stock, and re-
ceives daily inquiries concerning them,
when but 4 few years since one was sell
dom sold. Now, numerous society
girls, disgusted with the universally Of
plano-playing and its monotonous char
acter, have devoted themselves to the
harp with results as pleasing to the eve
as to the ear. No more beautiful pict-
urc is capable of being portrayed than
a young girl, clad in a costume which
does not too effcctuallv conceal the
beauty of her shapely arms, brincinc
sweet music from the willing strings.
Nor has this newborn interest in string
music been centered altogether in the
harp, charming though that may be.
Both the banjo and guitar hold the place
OF great favorites. Indeed, more easily
learned n less costly than the harp,
they lind their way into far moro pre-
tentlous instruments. Nor is the music
less pleasing. A banjo, light and deli
cate, seems especially adapted for fair
myers. The most tuneful of music
seems to flow at will from it's STRINGS
when they are picked by one of u fair
sisters who is al adept in the art. Tho
interest n attention which the melody
CHAINS from those OF the other sex who
may be permitted to hear it under such
circumstances is sufficient to demon-
strate that the innovation is welcome
ana appreciated. For a time at least
the piano has been retired to the back
ground.-Des -Woincs (Iu.D Le01em

Rev. Mr.. Jones a missionary from

the missionaries to be cursed in English

H E PERcEs.
Life Among the Indian Tribes Of the Pa
cific Coast.

The Indians of this coast have nearly
all discarded their peculiar costume,
and wear old and new civilized dress
in q decidedly Indian fashion. Among
the Nez Perces is seldom seen an en-.
tire Indian costume. Sometimes, how.
ever, one is forcibly reminded of the
parody:
Lo! the poor Indian, whose untutored mind
Wears all his clothes in front and none bel
hind.
These Indians live in tents made OIL
poles and covered with cloth or buffalo
robes. The tents are left open at the
top, and, as the fire is built in the cen
ter, the smoke naturally goes out at
the top. At night each individual
wraps his blanket around him and lies
down on the bare ground, without any
other covering. The bucks are fond
of gambling and understand the value
of a bob-taiied flush. They know how
to play a lone hand, too, and if there
is ever a scrapping match over the pot,
there is a good Indian for breakfast al.
ready carved.
A bird's-eye view of their encamp'
ment reveals some curious phases. In
the largest tent every night witnesses
high jinks which is made hideous by the
discordant notes of several tom-toms'
a peculiar flute with a hoarse whistle
accompanied by the women who crone
through theirclosed teeth. The dances
and athletic exercises are the same as
the pOw-wows and sun-dances Of the
Sioux. Not the least interesting and
picturesque are the children and dogs
which abound in great numbers. inc
little infant is firmly tied to a board
with a strap, which the mother puts
across her forehead when walking
about. A little buckskin string tackeu
on one corner with a knot for eacn
month tells how old the little fellow u
n the presence Of beads and a strip
OF ollcloth for sanitary purposes reveal
the sex. 1t is amusing to watch the
older children play horse with rag doIs
and dogs substituted Tor horses. ID
their childish way they mimic the lie
of their elders, and they are as quaint
n ugly as they are mirthless. Inc
dogs contribute their share to the gen,
erai fun and patiently submit to beng
ridden and made to carry all sorts U
bundles. The children have no coz.

OVER II RIVER.

The hours creep by on leaden feet,
And all the day is long to me,
1drink the bitter with the sweet
Things are not as they used to be.
It's lonesome, living OF this way
Since papa went to Canada.
Good sooth, he did not want to go,
He told me when he SAID good-by,
He had the Doodle with him, so
They could not find it should they try.
Then in a hurried sort of way
Poor papa went to Canada.
His place is empty on the board,
AT home we see his vacant chair;
And we, alas, seem quite ignored
Because he's neither here nor there.
There is no place to go or stay,
Since papa went to Canada.

Attempted Incendiarism.

This morning about 7 O'Clock Mr..
Friedrich was in the rear of his horn
chair works on Crockett street, when
he noticed colored boy strike match
outside one Of the windows. He thought
that he intended to light a cigarette,
but he was astonished to find the boy
throw the lighted match through the
window on to some excelsior packing.
The package ignited and before he
could get to it the flames were q foot
high. He was able to extinguish the
fire before any damage was done, but If
If he had not been there at the time
there is no question that a serious fire
would have occurred. AS soon rs he
,xtinguished the fire he went for the
boy, but he was too far advanced to be
captured. The act seems to have been
deliberate attempt of incendiarism.
