Cheap and dear are relative terms.
An article may be cheap measured in
dollars. But measured in the CON-
modities it requires to obtain the
dollars, it is dear. During the times
of abundant money from 1862 to 1865,
it took $25 to $50 to purchase the
suit that can be bought now for $l2
or SIS. But it requires more than
twice as much that the farmer pro-
duces to buy the suit now than when
the price was the highest.

The Press Is UntrammeIed.

We have no ''capltaHstic press" in
this country, no more than we have
capitalistic colleges and farms. There
is no institution freer from the inhu-
ence of money and corporate power
than the press is. 1t forms no pools,
trusts or corners, but fights them. Its
patrons are not the wealthy, and it is
farther removed from such influence
than are many of our schools, churches
and officials. There is not an illegiti-
mate deal or money-grabbing
scheme that makes its appearance
which does not receive the unreseryed
denunciatiOn of the press. Who can
point to single instance in which the
press was leagued with or was in col
fusion with scheme to defraud or
rob the people? There is not an in
stance of the kind on record. There
is no fairer, more just or more un-
prejudiced commentator on the rela-
tons of employer and employees than
the press. 1T does not defend the en-
ployer in injustice to the employed,
nor does it uphold the employees in an
unjust rebellion against the employer.
Its opinions are nearer right on all
matters of this concern than are any
others. 1t is Independent on all such
matters and stands from under all in
fiuences whatsoever. 1t is its own
judge of right or wrong, of justice and
injustice, and neither syndicates nor
unions can dictate its policy.-From

SHOTS BIZ SKILLFUL ARCHERs in the
days when the buffalo was found il vast
herds on the western plains, there were
Indians who, while riding at gallop,
could send an arrow through buffalo g
body. Remarkable as this shooting was,
yet it did not equal that reached by the
archers of ancient times.
Mr.. Dixon, in his history If Ga;rlnck,
Scotland, says that the MacRGes of that
district were such skillful archers that
they could hit man at the distance of
400 and even 500 yards. He instances
the killing of serving man &c 500 yards
and of two men killing several McLeods
at 400.
Lest the reader should discount the
distance of the range, the author men
tons several wonderful shots made 10y
Turks. In 1894 the Turkish ambassador
shot an arrow, in field near London,
4l5 yards against the wind and 49, yards
with the wind,
The secretary of the embasador, on
bearing the expressions of surprise from
the English gentlemen present, said the
sultan had shot 500 yards This was the
greatest performance of modern days,
but pillar, standing on a plain near
CoDstantinople, recorded shots ranging
up TO 800 yards.
Sir Robert Ainslie, British ambassador
to the sublime porte, records that in 1872
he WAS present when the sultan shot al
arrow 972 yards.

The EsEDio's IcE HoUeE.-But the
snow bouse is not the only kind used in
the Arctic winter by these strange people
for ice is sometimes employed, though
not to the extent that the other is used.
[ have already said that snow must be
OF q certain quality or consistency to
make good building material, a matter
depending on low temperature and the
fierce Arctic winds.
Sometimes IL the early winter one or
both of these conditions generally the
latter have not been fulfilled, and yet it
is uncomfortably cold living in their seal
skin tents, the usual summer abode.
Then the Eskimo, locking for better
quarters, cut slabs CT ice from some lake,
when it has frozen to about six inches in
thickness, and these slabs, about the size
of common house door, are placed on
end, and joined edge to edge, really
making pen of ice Of the size of the
house they desired to have. Over the
top, supported on poles so as to raise it
IN the center, is the seal skin tent, which
is fastened there so as to form very SER
viceable roof; although this may be re-
placed by dome of SNOW later on. A
night scene in one Of these ice villages,
with their transparent sides and bright
burning lamps, is beautiful and weird ID
the extreme.-Frederick Schwatka in

OLD TINES IN LoUIsIANA.-Those
''society balls were conducted with
greal propriety and reserve. The claim
Of every person of both sexes to be adj
mitted having been previously determin-
ed by the responsible and trusty com
mittee, there wac a sort Gf temporary
and conventional equality on the terp
sichOrean floor, aud, therefore, every gen
tIenan had the privilege to invite lady
without the formality Of al introduction
to figure in the dance as his partner.
After it was over he escorted her back
respectfully to her seat, without presum-
ing, if unknown and not duty presented,
to remain standing before her, or to sit
by her side, to continue the conversation
| or prolong the accidental acquaintance
During the intervals of dancing the
gentlemen walked up and down between
the rows Of ladies' that densely lined the
hall, some merely bowling as they passed
to those whom they knew and Others
stopping to converse. No woman, mar
ried or single, joined in this promenading
with a male companion, as is the custom
in these present days, and the eye Of 8
lynx could not have detected the slight
est Irritation. The word itself was not
known, for the thing it means is for
Louisiana modern invention, which
had not then been patented and brought
out for the public use. In fact, this
peculiar pastime would have been impos-
sible to attempt. It would have produc-
ed social earthquake Maya

GEORGIAN ARD ClRCAssIAN.--TheG eor-
gian has beauty quite different from
that OF the Circassiau. Tue Circassian
is dazzling, queen like and stately. She
has a fair skin. She is elegant in form.
She is kindly and gentle in voice, but
lazy in movement and without spirit.
One of her own sex has said: "There is
no soul III a Circassian beauty; and as
she pillows her pure, pale cheek upon her
small dimpled hand, you feel no inclina
ton to rouse her into exertion; you are
contented to look upon her and to cou-
template her loveliuess. Tie Georgian
is creature with eyes like meteors and
teeth almost as dazzling as her eyes.
Her mouth does not wear the sweet and
increasing smile of her less vivacious
rival. But the proud expression that sits
upon finely aTChed lips accords SO well
with her stately form and lofty brow that
you Go not seek to change its character.

HEART OF THE SIERRA MADRE.-Ow-
ing to the peculiar climatic conditions
of the country, the mountains and valleys
are green the year round; though in the
winter months the summits of the peaks
are often capped with snow, which APP
proaches closely the summer belt Of the
low land, where the air is redolent with
the fragrance of the orange blossoms.
While standing in an orange grove have
watched snow storm covering the dead
yucca stalks and chaparral, which was so
near by that | could have sent bullet
from my rife fairly into it. Winter and
semi-tropical summer were face to face
yet so subtle were the conditions that
there was no encroachment, the snow
seeming a veritable truce between the
opposing forces.-C. E. Holder in Amer
lean Magazine.

WHEN CANNED GOODS WERE UN
KECTN.-What did the world do before
somebody learned how to can all sorts OF
provisions, flesh. fowl, everything ami.
m8i or vegetable that man eats or drinks?
If the art had ueen learned 1. century
ago, what misery a..,: want, what disease
and famine it would have prevented.
Now sailors do not need to die of scurvy,
nor miners grow gaunt for want of vege
table food, nor soldiers sicken from ex-
cess OF bard tack, nor travellers and ex
plorers perish for want Of their accustom-
ed food. This simple matter of canning
food so that it may be kept fresh for a
year in climate and be purchased cheaply
has made possible many All enterprise
which but for that would have been i'm
possible. Wherever mines are found
canned goods are Indispensable. The
world has grown larger by means Of it
and healthier and weaithier and wiser.
And yet but few years ago such thing
wouid have been thought impossible. =

Escaping from a Bear.

On small plantation a mile or two
above Bayou Goula black bear was
seen to have entered a turnip patch,
and at once proceeded to help himself
to as many turnips as his appetite de-
handed. 1t is said that a colored
man witnessed the unauthorized levity
of Mr.. Bruin, and he determined that
he would enter the patch and drive
the invader out. Acting on the I'M
pulse, he Immediately entered the en-
closure and started in bruins direc-
ton. AS soon as the mans presence
became known to the bear he discon-
tinued his vegetable repast with the
evident intention of embellishing il
with meat; and with ears thrown
back and head erect, he started toward
the son of Ham with the apparent in
tention of testing the qualities of his
makeup. The darby saw him COM
ing, and at once decided that he did
not wish to drive his bearship from
the field, and, rather than attempt it,
he would leave the field himself. So
he graciously turned his face in the OPP
posite direction and made for the rail
! road. The bear appeared to be So
cially inclined, and willingly followed
his visitor, accelerating his speed as
he travelled. Sambo initiated him and
quickened his pace. And thus they
had it for some time straight up the
| railroad-run bear, run man, and the
devil take the hindmost.
Suddenly the colored man heard a
rumbling noise down the track, and
knew at once that the night express
train was coming. In a short time
it hove in sight, running at the rate OF
thirty-fve miles an hour When the
train came in sight the colored man
jumped from the track and continued
his wild flight on the side of it. The
bear also heard the noise, and looking
around saw the iron horse, with its
red lights and terrible wheeling and
putting. rushing madly upon him.
He seemed to lose all thought of the
man, and turned his attention to the
new foe which threatened him. Rear.
ing detiantly upon his launches, with
his forefeet extended, he snarlingly
awaited the oncoming train. He
hadn't long to wait, and the ponder
Gus engine, with its long and heavy
laden train, struck bold bruin amid
ships, aud in a jiffy sent him to the
happy hunting grounds to join the
members of his family who had pre-
ceded him there. He was skinned on
the spot, and the colored man who
had been racing with him enjoyed q
slice of haplesS bruin for supper

Curious DECEPTION IN SoUNDs.-A
curious manner of deception in sound
was developed the other day through q
bet. OGe man wagered that if blind
folded q person is unable to tell the dir
ection from which any sound comes. 4
gentleman was bliudfoided, and another,
holding two silver coins between his
finger, snapped them together right IN
der his friends nose. When called on
to locate the sound the gentleman was
positive it was behind him. Experiment
was tried from every side, but the gentle
man WAS not allie to tell correctly Just
where the sound came from Cincinnati
ENQUIRER.
