Cuvios1ties OF FriepTShfD.

Curioslties Of friendship would cover
nearly all cases Of noted masculine or
feminine afflnities the world has known.
The law that governs friendship has often
been stated. A general impression is that
opposites match, mate and cooperate more
readily than similar temperancnts.
Goethe could form a friendship most
readily with children. Strong natures
like pliable natures. Highly intellectual
people find necessary rest with those OF
less intellect and more emotion. There
was a philosophy in the keeping of testers
or ~'fools'' by those who were burdened
by affairs OF state. Walter Scott loved
nothing 80 we'll as his dogs. George
Eliot's friendships were for men. Blondes
are said to prefer brunettes, and bru-
nettes blondes. Globe Democrat.

MAKING A HOME.
The Husband Has to Do His Share rs We
~ the Wife.

The Husband Has to Do Bis Share rs Well
~ the Wife.
Men are what their homes make
them-of what their homes made of
them in infancy and youth. That
women make homes has been sung and
preached until one reads with hearty
satisfaction Colonel Higginsou's intro
duction of an address delivered last
summer at the commencement of a
girls college. He had been adjured.
said the speaker, not to talk to stu
dents and alumna as women, but as
human beings; to leave the matter of
sex in education out of sight for one
hour. The masculine element is as
essential to the right composition of
the home as lemon-iuice to the sugar
and water of sherbet. The household
where there is not mans hat on the
hall-rack is craft minus one side
wheel. The music of daily life with
out the heavier, up-bearing timbre Of
bass voice, is like the singing of
canaries. very tuneful and very thin.
The domestic duties of him who
stands in the place of pater-familias
are not fulfilled when he has supplied
grist to the mill. His wife may be the
nominal captain. He is part owner
and first mate. If she be the acknowl-
edged queen of the realm he is the
power behind the throne. Which jum-
Bile of metaphors, done into straight
forward English, signifies that a
woman can not, single-handed, make
perfect home. 1t is joint-stock
concern. in which each individual of
the household has share, the parents
being the heaviest owners and the
board Of directors. Any thing else is
a loosely-cohering association of hui
man particles, classed for the sake of
convenience under one name, and held
together by habit and policy.-Honae-
Maker.

THE ROCHESTER FIRE.

Arrest of the Engineer of the Lamp Works
on the Charge of Firing the Building.
ROCHESTER, y. Y, Nov. 15-Tue> lay
night Chief Detective Hayden and Cap
tain McCoriey arrested John Vankorf,
the engineer. for the awful crime of set
ting fire to the lantern works and causing
at least thirty-three deaths. The tact of
the arrest was kept secret until las, even
ing en- account Of the excitement pre-
vailing. He is forty-tive years of age,
has family and came to Rochester eight
years ago from Syracuse.
Vankorff had for years shown signs OF
mental arrangement and in the opinion
Of the police, he has mania for setting
fire to places, discovering the fire ami
then taking credit for his vigilance AMI
activity.
Twelve more bodies were unearthed
about nine O'Clock yesterday morning in the
ruins. These are in addition to the eleven
taken out Tuesday. This makes thirty.
three dead accounted for. There are
probably dozen bodies in the ruins. The
first body found was about forty feet west
Of the south elevator well. 1t was badly
charred- Shortly afterward another heap
of bodies were unearthed They Were
wedged together as though they had all
been standing together when the foor
gave way.
Nine more bodies were exhunled Last

CHICAGO. Nov. Is.-At the meeting of the
Western Freight Association yesterday
the Chicago & Northwestern railroad
agreed to suspend action for one month on
its proposal TO redRce rates on packing
house products and live stock to the basis
of cents hundred pounds from Omaha

hut will not be pat into effect until the
next monthly meeting of the association
unless it is discovered that the roads were
cutting rates. The present rate Of II cents
on packing house products, against 3
cents on live hogs mas called forth a pro-
test from the Chicago freight bureau on
account Of the discrimination in favor of
one class Of shippers against another.

THE ca,ckAsAw FEuo.


Governor Guy Determined to Hold the
Fort-History of the Trouble.
DoUGHEarY, l. T., Nov. I5-When the
recent election in the Chickasaw Nation
was held, Governor GUY was reelected
but William Byrd contested the election
and cast out enough votes to put him in
the majority by few votes and called on
the Speaker OF the House. who was a
Byrd man, to state who was Governor. and
he swore in Byrd, who then called on Guys
Cabinet for the Nations books and money.
The Guy party would not give them up
and Byrd issued warrants for the Treas.
urer and Auditor, but did not serve them.
Then he called the Legislature together
and kept the capitol building guarded.
Guy got together about fifty of his men.
marched into Tishomingo, took possession
Of the capitol and called his Legislature
together and was sworn in as Governor.
Then he went to Washington and stated
the case before the interior Department
and was recognized as Govr{uor of the
Chickasaw Nation and told that if any
disturbance occurred to interfere with his
administration he should call on the
United States troops.
Guy on his return proposed to the Byrd
party to submit their differences to the
party replied that they would not agree to
new election as they had possession OF
the capitol and intended to run the Chick
asaw Government under the Byrd admin
isration.
Guy then notified Byrd's faction that he
would give them until Saturday. Noven,-
Der IL, to decide whether they would ar-
cept his proposition or not, stating that if
they did not he would take the capitol ty
force and put the officers of the Byrd party
under arrest.
GUY is determined to be Governor or
fight and the Byrd men are also deter
mined to stand by their leader and it il
predicted by good many who are well
acquainted with the men in both parties
that il it is necessary to fight there will be
a great deal of blood shed when both
parties come together. Each side can raise
about $50 good fighting men. All of the
non-citizens are in favor OF Governor
Guy
Several attempts have been made to as
sassinate Guy, but he still travels alone.
His party want him to take ten men with
him whenever he travels, but he saws he
does not wish to put any extra expense on
the Nation when it is not necessary. He
is at present getting his men together in
readiness for action when the time limited
for the acceptance of his proposition has
expired.
The Byrd party is composed principally
OF full blood Indians known as the nom
progressive party, and they are hostile to
the settlement of the territory by whites,
while Guy represents the progressive
party, which favors white immigration
and the cuitivating OF he lands
