Mr.. Curtis S New Indian Name.

William E. Curtis is now in full posses
sion of an undisputed right to wear a red
blanket, a pair of mocclsns and plug
hat, from the crown of which gaudy
feather protrudes. The other day the Pan
American party stopped at Pender, Neb.,
long enough to allow the party to watch
the antics of sco.e of distressingy tame
indians relics of the once great tribes Of
Omahas and Winnebagoes. The dancing
was done by an octette of rheumatic
souays to the harsh tones of an antedilu-
Wan tom-tom Curtis rolled off the train
in company with the delegates, and the
sharp eyes of the aborigines at once picked
him out as the ono most likely to have in
his pocket few dollars in small change.
Wahposhohor, or the One-eyed Horse That
Chews Tobacco. advanced toward him,
and after making few wild gesticuations
and noisy remarks, solemnly announced
that Curtis was henceforth to be known
among men as Te-ditsy Vino Periodista-

ways has Lots of Fire Water on His
Clothes. Curtis was too much Overco me
to make suitable response to the remarks

with the entire outfit, made neat little

Senator Hale's Naval ILLS.

The Senate gets to work quickly. a
food Of bills poured in yesteIlly, half of
which may never get consideration, and
only a comparative few are u much i'm
portanCe. Among those few, however. are
the four naval bills introduce, by Senator
Hale. The first provides for be construc-
ton Of eight battle ships Of 800 to TO-
900 tons displacement, TWO aunored coast
defence vessels, three gunboas of about
one thousand tons, and iiye tfpedo boats.
They may be built at the nay Yards IN
case the Secretary caunot get sIem built by
private firms at ii reasonable Hlce.
The second bill relates to I namin. OF
the vessels OF our navy, and herely puts
into formal shape the rule air hdy practic-
ally adopted. The battle -hi are to be
called after States. ike th1Maine aud
Texas, now building; the ckiserS after
cities, like the Chicago, Atlanf and Bos-
ton, now in commission; u armored
coast defense vessels after h>oric events
or persons or places and the unarmored
coasters after rivers.

| service. After thirty years oservice sea
men may he retired upon lree-fourths

The December Century opens with series
of unpublished letters written by the Duke of
Wellington, in his very last days to young
married lady of England. These letters pre-
sent the Iron Duke in very attractive light
amiable and unpretendiug; the careful guard

ish illnesses. Besides pictures of the Dukes
residences, etc, there are three portraits Of
Wellington. The personal interest is very
strongly continued in Joseph Jefferson's auto
biography. Mr.. Charles Barnards illustrated
