banning the Doctors.

A lively and angry meeting of the
doctors comprising the West Texas
Medical association was held in the
county court room last night. The
principal discussion came up about
certain doctors who We're charged
with violating the code of ethics in
advertising in the newspapers, and in
publishing cases attended to, and
everything else in which a doctors
name could possibly appear in pa
per. DR.. F. Hertf, Dr.. A. Hertf,, Dr.
Braunnagel, DR.. SchrOpshire, DR..
Johns, DR.. Lowry, DR.. Hays and DR..
Watts were read out as the
offending ones, and DR.. King had his
scrap book there and produced it,
with clippings of the papers in which
names of doctors published from time
to time appeared. DR.. F. Hertf pre-
sided over the meeting, and when his
name vas mentioned as among the
doctors who advertised by publishing
cases, etc, he unqualitiedly pro-
nounced this lie. DR.. Chew pre-
committee appointed at last meeting

peruyinn MhIstIInr Jugs.

The silvadors OF musical jugs found
among the burial places of Peru are
most ingenious specimens of handi-
work. A silvio in the William S.
Vaux collection at Philadelphia con
sists of two vases, whose bodies are
Joined one to the other, with a hole or
opening between them. The neck of
one of these vases is closed, with the
exception Of n small opening in which
a clay pipe is inserted leading to the
BODY Of the whistle. When q liquid
is poured into tho open necked vase,
the air is compressed into the other,
and in escaping through the narrow
opening is forced into the whistle, the
vibrations producing sounds. Many
of these sounds represent the notes of
birds; one in the Clay collection of Phil
adel phia, Pa, initiates the robin o
some other member of the thrush tribe
peculiar to Peru. The closed neck of
this double vase is modelled into a rep
resentation of a birds head, which is
thrush like in character. Another
water vase in the same collection, rep
resenting a Hama, initiates the dis
gushing habit which this animal pos
sesses of eiecting its saliva when en-
ragged. The kissing sound which
accompanies this action is admirably
initiated. A black tube of earthen-
ware ornamented with a grotesque
head in low relief, to which short
arms are attached pressing a three
tubed syrinx to its lips, deserves special
mention, as it suggests the evolution
of this instrument from a single tube
to more complicated forms.-The Clay

TIL. onondara Indian Tribe.

A good picture of the state of affairs
reprobated by the recent Indian coun-
elf is seen in the case of the Onondaga
tribe. This tribe owns a reservation
of 5000 acres on the site of the old
council fires of the Six Nations. These
5000 acres are uniformly of the
choicest farming lands, and include
stone quarries of the finest gray lime
stone. But the Indians neither farm
their lands nor work their quarries.
There are twenty-six chiefs for 400
members Of the tribe. The old Indian
language is still in common use. The
state Of morals is absolutely indescrib-
able in decent English. The tenure of
land is tribal. The remuneration of
Christianity is a requisite to election
as a sachem; but nominal Christianity
is professed by about half the tribe.
The Feast Of the White Dog is cele-
brated with indecent ceremonies. The
question of what to do with the In
dams is now necessarily to be recon
sidered. 1t is not enough to hold them
on reservations and feed them.-Globe-
Democrat.
