The Indians phvsicai Endurance.

How much bodily pain one of these
Crow warriors can undergo witnessed
in 1880, near this post. 1t was IN the
fall Of that year when the Hon. Carl
Schurz (thc then secretary of the INTERIOR
visited the captured Sioux and Chev
ennes near Fort keogh. The honorable
gentleman desired to observe the natives
at one of their dances and fcasts and
Gen. Miles, our commanding officer. con-
Quoted him to the neiShboring encamp-
ment. The writer accompanied the
party, which went on horseback. AS we
neareG the spot we beield several hun
dreds of Indians squa.ted down on the
grass. singing, shouting and drumming.
They were not dancing just then. but
were enjoying star performance by
solitary warrior-a Crow lndian--sone-
thing Of all overwhelmingly humorous
characser-a highly seasoned and palata-
bic side dish In the feast, 80 to speak.
Tho stalwart Crow stood in the center
of the circle, entirely naked with the ex-
cep,ion Of the provc-bial breech cloth;
the blood was streaming from hundred
gasbes which he was self iatiicting upon
chest, shoulders, abdomen, arms and
legs with sharp edged knives, handed to
him alternately by some Of the Sioux and
Cheyenne braves.
The sight was too muc!, for the some
what sensitive organization of the fast;d-
ious secretary. and giving his horse the
spurs. he soon escaped from the disgust
ing spectacle. The attending Indians en-
jored the performance hugely, for they
were chatting away and laughing gayly
while the horrible ard certainly very
rainful mutilation was going on. The
interpreter informed me tina, it was an
atonenent ceremony on the part Of the
Grow, who had In the preceding winter
killed Sioux. From, the same source l
learned afterward that the very height OF
the festivity was reached by the audience
when the performer finally permitted his
body to be washed with vinegar, after
which he INDUCED iii fits and conrul.

The Long Coach Whip pennans.

Many people have wondered what is
the Significance Of the long pennant car.

war in commission. When the Dutch
Admiral Van Tromp l,oisted broom at
the top Of the mast Of his vessel to indi-
cate his intention to sweep the English
from the sea, the English admiral hoisted
a horse whip. indicating his intention to
chastise the Du:chnlan. Hence the
coach whip pennant was adapted as the
distinctive insignia of q war vessel in COM

A Lack of Taste

One of the most irritating of the recent
idiocies of tourists is the fashion of leav-
ing cards at the so,nbs Of distinguished
people. The bust of Longfellow in West
minister Abbey is constantly surrounded
by these inappropriate bits of pasteboard,
and the grave Of II. IT," is said to be
literally covered with the visiting cards
left by tourists who climbed the lonely
mountain near Colorado Springs to visit
the last resting place of the poet and
novelist. Nothing but an abundance Of
the most egregious vanity and absolute
lack of taste could prompt an action SO
iiiotic as the following Of this absurd
custom. boston Courier.

Had it pleased heaven 10 give me but the voice.

And none are high enough that should dare

The GAZETTE, chronologically, is in the
eighty ninth year of its existence and is not
only the oldest paper in the State, but, with
very few exceptions, in the country. Not.
withstanding the fulness of its years, it has
kept, and will continue to keep abreast of the
times in all that pertains to netcs paper,
furnishing it's readers daily with perfect
mirror of passing events, domestic and for
eign. It's facilities for obtaining news as
they increase are taken advantage of and
used for the benefit of its readers, who are
thus Kept thoroughly posted as to all that is
of interest politically, socially, financially
and commercially. Special attention is
given to matters concerning the State and
its welfare, while its local columns contain
all that is of the slightest interest to Alex.
sndria. Ils regular correspondence from
Washington and Richmond are features Of
peculiar interest, as attested By the eager
ness with which they are read and copied
by other papers, while its editorial depart.
ment conducted with reference to the best
interests of the city, State and country, will
continue to advocate what is believed to be
right, just. honest and patriotic. With
view to the interests of merchants farm.
erp, and all interested, its commercial COL
umns are carefully edited and its market
reports are Acknowledged by all to be faith
fu and accurate. Through all this section
of the State and in all parta OF the country
where Vireinians have located, there will
the GAZETTE generally be found, and thus
as an advertising medium it has few equals
outside the large cities. In the household,
counting room and workshop, it is an ever
welcome visitor, acceptable alike to old and
young, the grave and the goy.
