Profs. Lee and Townsend are both
more than ordinarily successful as am
ateur photographers. They have
brought back fine collection Of pho
to0raphs Of interesting places, people
and situations, some of which are re-
produced here. BY far the most inter-
estin0 pictures are those taken OF the
coast Of Terra del Fuego, the inhabit-
ance of which are next 70 the lowest
tvpes Of the human race known.
Prof. Lee. by the way, ascribes dif-
ferent origin 10 the name of the land
than Is given in the biographies that
were studied In the schools. These
text books said that the number OF vol
canoes about gave the country its for
hidden name. but the Professor says
that there are no volcanoes anywhere
about there. The natives of the coun-
try live i'm long bark canoes, in the
center Of which "A fire is always burn
ing. When 10 kindle fire meant 10
rub two sticks together until they start
cd 70 burn the sayages were careful
not 10 let their fires 90 out. and the
custom survives. The name comes
from these ever-burning fires.
The natives have learned the use OF
matches and tobacco, and these COM
modities command a high price in
Terra del Fuego, even though there Is
no protective tariff there. A sheep or
baby Is considered fair equivalent
for plug OF tobacco or a bunch OF
matches. III the choice OF the price Is
given the native he will always give
the baby, as there is much greater
demand for sheep than for young
Fuegans.
Ii was reported that in one Of the
copper tanks, among the strange
fishes. good specimen Of the Fuegan
baby was comfortably tucked away in
alcohol, but the scientists would not
admit this.
Tie Fuegans are not a warlike race,
though they are very skilful with their
primitive bows and arrows. The ar
rows are not feathered, and the barb
consists of a triangular piece of glass
ground sharp.
Though the Fuegans are very low In
the human scale, they are careful not to
offend the eyes Of strangers. An ex-
plorer approaching boat sees only
the bcst-looking squaw Of the party.
She handles paddle at the stern ana
steers the boat. Her less comely sis
ter-there are always two families on
a boat hidden ANONYMOUSLY under
the seats.
There are no old women in Terra del
Fuego. Lest this should cause an eX-
odus from the civilized world it would
perhaps be best TO explain why. When
IA woman gets 10 the right age, about
forty-fve. she is considered to have
done her duty. With appropriate
ceremonies, therefore, she is either
lanced or stranglcd and the family lar
der is replenished with her roasted re-
mains.
The women. when they see the time
Of sacrifice approaching, never at
tempt To escape Il. They regard 1t as
about almost as settled a fact as that
the wind should blow. and never
trouble themselves about il.
The Fuegens are not cannibals fur
Their than this. They never eat child
rem. young women OF men. San Fran

A scientist has discovered curious
regularity in the geographical dis
tribution OF certain virtue and vices.
Intemperance Is found north Of the
forty-eighth parallel; amatory abcrra-
tons south Of the foriy-tifth: financial
extravagance in large seaports. thrift
in pastoral highland regions. Under
this theory the cure of certain faults
might be produced by transportation
of offenders from one climate TO
another.

The Lucky Man.

The News representative learning
that Mr.. G. H. Oedamer OF this city
had drawn $4,000 in the last Louisl-
ana State Lottery drawing, which
took place on the 18th inst, called
on that gentleman at his place OF
business, 1882 Main Street, to learn
what he had to say of public interest
about the matter.
Mr.. Oedamer was found by the re-
porter in his cigar factory, pursuing
his daily routine OF business, Just
as il it was an every day affair to
draw $4,000, and, in response to the
question from the News man, said:
ayes, 1 am the man who drew $5,-
900 in the Louisiana State Lottery
last Tuesday, and l have been paid
every cent of the money. l got
ticket 60,675, which i sealed up in
an envelope and thought no more
about it until read list of the
lucky numbers in the Dallas News
last Thursday morning. l then ex.
amincd my ticket and fonnd that l
was TIE fortunate man.
"How did yon feel Mr.. Oedamer,
when you first discovered that you
had drawn the prize?"
cts hard to describe a fellows
feelings under such circumstances.
AT first felt little queer. and was
afraid that il might turn out to be
mistake; but l was soon satisfied
that my ticket was all right and that
good fortune had really come my
way"
In response to the inquiry as to
what were his future plans, Mr.. De-
damer said that he proposed to in
vest the money in Dallas real estate
and secure for himself, mother and
sisters little home, which they have
long wanted but have not been able
heretofore to purchase.
The lucky man IS young unmar-
ried German, cigar maker by
trade, and lives with his mother and
sisters, the latter being interested
with him in the prize.
Mr.. Oedamer further stated to the
News, reporter that he has not been
regular investor in The Louisisns
State Lottery drawings, never having
spent but a few dollars for tickets.
