An Editor on Drummers.

At the game supper given at Macon,
Ga. the other night, TO tine Travellers
Protective Association, f. II. Richard
son, of the Telegraph, thus elOquently
apostrophized the assembled guests;
Nv hat would Georgia he without
her .drummers? She would be cooped,
corralled. and crushed in the mad bat
tie for commercial supremacy. What
would Macon be without her drum
mers? She would stagnate on the hills
of her plenty. the drummer is the
courier of progress. The drummer
carries the thought and customs of the
city into the provinces. He sows the
seeds of promise in waste places. He
makes the dreary hours to blossom
with song and jest. He is the swift
and shining shuttle which weaves the
woof and warp of our wealth. Wher-
ever the pioneer blazes the march of
civilization the echo of his AK is the
football of the drummer. Wherever
men gather'in the mart his voice is
heard. Werever a weak and defense
les women is in distress, his big heart
and his strong arm are ready to serve
her. Wherever a vicious tongue as
perses the fame of his city or his state
none quicker than he to resent the in
suit.
There is in our busy times no more
interesting, no more romantic figure.
He is destined to hold in literature a
place as unique and honorable as he
holds in commerce. Gay as the trou-
badour, gallant as the laureled hero
of the tourney, loyal to duty, at once
shrewd and chivalrous gentle, aud
brave, undaunted by difficulty, defiant
of discomfort. 1 dub him the knight er-
rant of civilization.

How Indians Killed Deer.

The Co-Yukon Indians of Alaska
kill the moose in large numbers while
swimming across the Yukon river dur.
ing their periodical migrations, 'man.
euvering around In their birch-bark
canoes until the animal is fatigued,
and then stealthiiy approach and stab
it ip the heart or ioins." Another and
more ingenious mode of capturing deer
scribed by Mr.. Whympor in his
corral or inclosure, eliiptical in form,
and open at one end, is made on a
deer-trail. generally near the outlet of
wood. The farther end of the inclosed
space is barricaded; the sides are built
of stakes, with slip-nooses or loops be-
tween them. Herds of deer are
driven in from the woods, and, trying
to break from the trap. generally run
their heads into the nooses, tighten
them. and. so get caught, or are shot
while still bewildered and running
from side to side. Near the opening il
is common to erect piles of snow with
portfolios trough which natives, hid.
den. shoot at the passing deer"
We will notice lastly the "deer-
fences" of the once numerous and
powerful, but now extinct, Beothic
nation, the aboriginal inhabitants OF
Newfoundland. They are thus de-
scribed by Mr.. Harvey in a recent IN
teresting book on Newfoundland:
'tThe deer-fences were made by telling
the trees along the ridge of the rivers
bank without chOpping the trunks
quite asunder, taking care that they
fell parallel with the river, each tree
having been guided so as to coincide
with and fall upon the last. Gaps
were filed up by drying in stakes and
Interviewing the branches and limbs OF
other trees. They were raised to the
height of six or seven feet, as the place
required, and were not to be forced oil
Ieaped by the largest deer" It is in
teresting to notice that portions OF
these deer-fences still remain in some
parts of the interior of Newfoundland,
principally, however, in those lying to
| of the Booths. The intrepid COrmack,
when travelling in Newfoundland, saw
| those which lie on the bank of the river
Exploits, and in the narrative of his
expedition he thus refers to them:
w ndb dIIC6LS bllc dbl6uplOu uIQSG WlIi6
gliding down the stream is the extent
of the Indian fences to entrap deer.
They extend from the lake downward
| continuously on the banks of the river
at feast thirty miles. There are open,
ings left here and there in them, for
the animals to go through and swim
across the river; and at these places
the Indians were stationed, to kill
them in tie water with spears, out OF
their canoes, as at the lake. Here,
then, connecting these fences with
those on the northwest side of the lake
are at least forty miles of country,
easterly and westerly. prepared to in
tercept all the deer that pass that way
in their periodical migrations. 1t was
melancholy to contemplate the gigan'
tic yet feeble efforts of whole primi
tive nation, in their anxiety to provide
subsistence forsaken and going to de
| cay. There must have been hundred:
of the red Indians, and that not many
years ago. to have kept up these fences

Bean Hickman's Secret.

Capt. Hassler of the Interior Depart

being one of the best story tellers in
public life, ''you all remember dear
old Beau Hickman, the notorious beat
OF te-bellum DAYS? I shall not soon
forget my first meeting with him. 1t
was in the early days of the war. One
day a crowd of soldier boys, myself
among the number, stepped into the
rutunda of Wizards Hotel. The first
person we met was Beau, faultlesly
dressed and serene, smiling as usual.
The boys gaticred about him and be-
gan plying him with questions.
"'Tell US. Beau, sad one of the
youngsters, how you manage to live
without working
"'Ah! said Beau, drawing himself
up stit1iy, that's a secret, and l don't
tell my secrets without being paid for
them"
He paused for a moment and
coolly counted us over and said:
There are just sixteen of you. If you
will chip in quarter apiece I'll tell
you
'In less than thirty seconds, sixteen
shining 25-cent pieces were laid IN
Beau's hand. He satisfied himself thai
the number was correct, and then
sliding them deftly into his trouser':
pocket, he faced about, and as he
stalked majestically away he added
You wanted to know, gentleman, how
l live without working. Well this il
one way. Ia, ta!
