seems to have touched whatever vanity
there might be, and this brute had touch
of that in him. While the sketching was
going on, our interpreter came ashore
with some others of our party, and at my
request inquiries were begun as to who
my model might be. He stated that he

WashingtOn's Headquarters in France

After the surrender of Yorktown and
the departure of the French, Washing
ton established his headquarters at New
burgh on the Hudson. The house in
which he lived is carefully preserved and
shown as an historical museum.
There is a pleasant story of La Fay
ette's aifectionate remembrance of the
life there. Just before his death, which
occurred in 1884 he gave dinner party
in Paris to the American minister and
some friends who had been old asso-
ciates. Later in the evening, when it
came time for supper the guests were
ushered into room which was in strange
contrast with the elegance of the apart
ments they had been in. The ceiling was
low, with large beams crossing it; there
was single small, uncurtained window,
and several small doors 1t looked more
like an old fashioned Dutch kitchen than
a room in a French house. A long,
rough table was meagrely set. A dish of
meat stood on it, some uncouth looking
pastry, and wine in decanters and bottles,
ready to be poured out into glasses and
camp-mugs.
''Do you know where we are now r.
asked La Fayette as his companions
looked about puzzled, and as if in a
dream. "Ahl the seven doors and one

Four children of Mr.. Rodenberger,
living near Big Skookum, when gong
home from school on Wednesday last,
we're surprised by a big tiger, which
sprang upon one of them, a six-year-old
boy, who was walking in the rear. The
animal threw the boy to the ground,
seized him by the head, tearing the scalp
in frightiul manner, and mangling his
face Another boy, eight years old,
bravely rushed to the rescue, and, catch
ing the beast by the ear, beat him upon
the head so furiously with glass bottle
that he released his hold and ran to the
brush The alarm Icing given, parties
started out to hunt the brute, and brought
him down. He was a full-grown male,
and measured between eight and nine
feet in length. Iac0ma W T.) Ners.

The white races are urged forward by
an irresistible spur over which they have
no control. The increase of the yellow
race, which once must have been incredi-
bly, fast, has stopped, and that of the
dark races, of India, which for centur-
les has been amazing, is being checked
by recurrent famines; but that of white
people goes on so fast that the transport
of huge army every year across the At
lantic makes no impression on their num-
bers, and at their present rate of increase
they will in 1894 be thousand millions.

The New York Commercial AdcertiSer
says: ''Napoleon's familiar remark, de-
signed to be sarcastic, that England is
nation of shopkoepers, is still con-
stantly quoted, without any comment on
its assumption and impertinence, coming
from that source. England is such a
nation, but it does not begin to be so
entirely composed of shopkeepers as
France is. Nobody who has visited Paris,
Lyons, Marseilles, Bordeaux or any lead
ing French city but must have been
struck by the number of shops every
where-shops, too, in the strict sense
places of small retail trade. In London
and the big English towns there are a
great many large mercantile establish
ments, which exist only to limited ex'
tent in France. There are thousands Of
shops so diminutive that they would es-
cape observation were it not for the win
dows in which the whole stock is usually
displayed. The French are the happiest
of shopl6eepers, and no one knew it
better than Napoleon, who doubtless
wished to distract attention from them
by ascribing their particular traits and
habit to another people. 1t has long been
recognized fact that commercial ma.
tions always make excellent soldiers and
wage fierce and obstinate wars"

English markets are now supplied with
choice fir ait from Australia, Apples and
pears come during the summer season
when fruit is scarcest. The fruit is large
and finely -colored, but like that from Cali
fornia, is deficient in flavor as compared
with that grown farther North. 1t is
quite likely that American aud English
farmers with have to compete with Aus
tralia in fruit as well as in grain. This
competition will be the more formidable
from the comparative nearness of Aus.
tralia TO the teeming millions Of China
and India. 1t is by Chinese cheap labor
that California fruit growers arc enabled
to force the sale of their products in all
parts of the United States.

A New York wigmaker remarks:
"Fashion repeats itself, and my impress
sion is that within the next decade the
powdered wigs of the time of Louis XIV.
will come into vogue. They had style
in those days. The head was the center
TO dress from then, and a cavalier made
an imposing appearance. Now big
walking cane and high collar consti-
tute the modern cavalier. Bald heads
must go. Even Caesar wore a crown of
leaves to hide his badness, but these
parquet bachelors have lost all pride"

The eastern band of the Cherokees
now numbers 5000, scattered through
six states, the bulk of them in North
Carolina, where they have a reservation
of 70, 600 acres. There they live for the
most part in common, tilling the land as
they think best. The mass of the Cher
okees are in the Indian territory, whittier
the eastern blnd has been invited to set
tie and share lands and privileges with
them. The latter will, it is thought,
soon go thither They would not be so
easily duped there by designing whites,
nor will they suffer so much from pneu-
monia as they do in the mountainous re-
gion of North Carolina. 1t is generally
supposed that the aboriginals of this
country are fast melting away but per-
sons who have made study of the ques-
ton assert that there are fully as many as
there were ten years ago. Their vitality
and tenacity OF life are certainly remark
able, considering what they have to con-
tend against; how generally unfavorable
the conditions of our civilization are to
their well-being.

A contributor to the St. Louis Globe
Democrat, who has travelled through
Mexico, Genital, and South America,
says United States contractors and specu-
lators Always pay American rates of
wages, while Englishmen take advantage
of any local rates which may profit them.
Thus in Mexico contracts are carried out
side by side, and while American con-
tractors pay 81 and $1.25 day, Euro
pean bosses pay fifty cents and seventy
five cents. 1t is just the same in the Ar
gentine republic, on all the public works
there. Local labor is absurdly cheap,
and English contractors pay just as little
as they can, while Americans pay decent
rates all through, and in the long run
come out the best, their terms attracting
all the best men.
