An Educated Anache.

Chas. H. Kenyon, of Globe, is in re ceipt of letter, dated Chicago, May 3d, 1859, from Carlos Montezuma, M D., a full-blooded Apache, whose In dian name was Was-sa-jah. He was captured by the Pimas, in 1870, in the Pinal mountains and two years later was sold by them to a photographer who took Montezuma to Chicago, since which time he has lived in the Lake City, and continuously attended schools and colleges until last month, when he graduated from medical college, and the degree of Bachelor of Science was conferred upon him, and he is now a practicing physician in Chicago. On Centennial day he de- livered the oration in one of the lead ing educational institutions of that city.
 At the time of his capture by the Pimas, two of his sisters were taken into bondage, and were subsequently, sold for two COWS. One of them now lives in Globe, and is the wife of d Mexican. The other sister was taken Dy Wnlte people, ln 1otz or 10, to Oal- iiornia, where she now lives, her sister thinks, in San Francisco. The mother is still ward of the Government and lives on the San Carlos reservation.
 Dr. Montezuma writes legible hand, and bis letter gives evidence of we'll educated mind, and is filled with expressions of affection for his mother and sister.

A Story of the Orient.

Beneath tho cloudless sky of India the domes and minarets of earth's loveliest shrine glittered in the palo moonlight with radi- ance pure, unearthly, and entrancing. The soul of the observer reveled in the marvellous beauty and glory of the scene. On the red sandstone and marble terraces rose the grand est mausoleum that human affection, aided by the resources of wealth, genius, art and imagination, ever reared to perpetuate the memory of the loved and lost. The voices of the dead past seemed to whisper in the vast interior of the marvellous structure and bid mankind heed the precopts of wisdom in- scribed in imperishable mosaics of precious stones on the inner walls The pure white marble, whose polished surface was reflected in the crystal waves from whose bosom this wonderful edifice appeared to rise, the delicate spires, beautiful as poets dream and shapely as the embodied vision of an inspired archi- tect-these might well enchain the attention and hold in their magic thral the soul of the traveller from the far western world who stood with head barred to the breeze and gazed in seeming rapture at the grand and thrilling spectacle.
 Tall, erect, with the form of an Apollo Belvedere and the physical proportions of Q Greek athlete the embodiment and ideal of vigorous and magnificent manhood, he stood with folded arms and surveyed the glor ious beauty of the scene before him. His eye wandered over the historic landscape and a deep sigh burst from bis bosom.

In less than a week after their arrival those regiments were ill an engagement with the Confederate forces, and young Ladds account of the same was sent home and published in The Bos- ton Journal and copied in New York papers before The New York Herald's correspondent got his account in. The first Sunday paper ever published in New England, outside of Boston, was an ex- tra Mercury, which young Ladd got out to announce the battle of Fredericksburg.
 After the war MT. Ladd engaged in business again. He has always taken an active interest in public matters, was one of the organizers of the Providence Con- mercial club, and is now president of the same for the third time.
 The Rhode Island Society for the Pre- vention of Cruelty to Children early elected him its president, and to him is due the present systematic organization of that philanthropic society. He was vice president of the Providence Board of Trade for two years.

 Spring FanCies.
 THE YOUNG MAN In the spring the youth his person in the latest
 fashions decks, And begins to cEIst adniring glances on the other
 sex; In the spring a nameless yearning something that
 he cannot trace, Comes upon Jim when he meets O maiden with a
 pretty face; And the fluttering of a ribbon, the perfume of
 a glove, Thrills his pulses and his fancy lightly turns to
 thoughts of love"
 THE YOCN GIRL. In the spring the maiden doffs the glossy sealskin
 sacque she wore, Which enables her to don bigger hustle than
 before. Then she puts on lighter garments, snowy laces,
 ribbons gay, And gorgeous hat that climax caps of her new
 spring array All the secrets of the toilet uses with woman's
 skill
 For her heart, too, is responsive to the season'a
 magic thrill. Soon some strange mysterious process brings to-
 gether youth and maid; There are meetings in the moonlight, there are whisperings iu the shade, Wanderings in secluded places, often till the hour
 is late
 Loving glances, sweet confessions, stolen kisses at the gate, Petty ouarrels over nothing that with misery hll
 life's cup, Prides surrender, explanations and delicious makings up. When the tender grass Is springing and the open
 ing buds appear. When the birds gayly singing and the skies are blue and clear, Thus it's course in spring love runneth, culminat-
 ing in the May, | With parental blessings and the naming of the
 wedding day.

Choking Catarrh.

Have you awakened from disturbed sleep with
all the horabe sensations of assassin clutchng
your throat and pressing the life breath from your
frightened chest Have you noticed the anguor and
debility that succeed the effort to clear your throat
and head of this catarrhal matter? What depress-
ing influence it exerts upon the mind, cloudng the
memory and filling the head with pains and strange
noises! How difficult it is to rid the nasal passages
throat and lungs of this poisonous mucus all can
testify who afflicted with catarrh How difficult
to protect the system against its further progress
towards the lungs, liver and kidneys, all physicians
will admit. 1t is terrible disease and cries out for
relief and cure.

remedies utterly fail, of SAHFoRDs RADICAL

recommend it to fellow sufferers. No statement is

Questions Answered.

G. L., CHELSEA there is a de-
ficiency in the pension appropriation of
SO ,000,0 900, as reported, it will only cause
delay in the June payment of pen
sions from June TO July l, when the
new appropriation of $S0,000,000 will
be available.
2. B., WINoosKI.-W think you
had better beware of an attorney who
claims special favors in the pension
office through a friendly clerk. His
claim is sham, made for the purpose
of influencing soldiers to entrust him
with the prosecution of their cases.
j. w. c., WHITE RIVER JUNCTION.
The act of congress approved June l,
1888, allowing widows of soldiers to
draw pension from the death of the
husband instead of from the date of
filing the claim does not apply to
widows whose husbands served in the
war of 1912 or in the Mexican war, nor
does it include dependent relatives.
/. H. E., WATERBURY.-The change
in the administration will not stop the
adjudication of pension claims in the
pension bureau. The changes will be
too gradual to interfere with the cur
rent business. A large number of the
clerks in the pension office have been
employed for many years and will con-
tinue under the new administration to
perform the duties heretofore assigned
them.
A. j. NJ, NORTH HYDE PARK.-If
your father, who was once pensioned
for disability contracted while soldier
in the great rebellion, still suffers from
such disability, he can have his pension
restored. The fact that your mother
has been granted a pension as de-
pendent relative of another soldier in
the mean time does not affect your
fathers right to pension. We could
name several families who are receiv-
ing two pensions-the husband one, on
account of disability contracted in the
service, and the wife another, on &C
count of the death of son to whom
she looked for support.
M. p, BURLINGToN.-If you were
going to Washington to look after your
pension claim you would need letter
of introduction from one of Vermont's
congressman to the commissioner of
pensions. Be sure and see the COM
missioner himself in regard to your
claim. If you should not insist on see
ing the commissioner you would be
turned over to clerk, who would talk
with you about the case and perhaps
show you the testimony, ETC., but could
do nothing for you, and you would come
away feeling that your trip had been
made in vain; while the commissioner,
if interested in your case, could modify
the requirements made upon you for
testimony and even order the pension
granted, if he concluded that you were
rightfully entitled to it.

Waste of Bullets in War.

Our readers may have seen or heard
the statement that it takes soldiers
weight of lead to kill him in battle, and
they may have considerd ito be merely
rhetorical hyperbole, suggested by
the obvious fact that comparatively few
out of the whole number of shots in
war take effect. 1t seems, however,
that the assertion, which originated
with the famous Marshal SAKE, was
proved by Cassendi, after careful mathe-
matical calculation, to be no eXaggera-
ton; and, with all the improvements
that have been made in muskets and in
the art of using them effectively it is
still not far from the truth. At the bat
tie of Solferino a comparison of the
number of shots fired on the Austrian
side with the number killed and
wounded on the part of the enemy
shows that seven hundred bullets were
expended for each man wounded, and
forty-two hundred for each one killed.
Now, as the average weight of the balls
used was thirty grams, it must have re-
quired at least one hundred twenty-siX
Kilograms, or about two hundred
seventy-seven pounds of lead, to kill a

slaughter caused by the needle-gun
among the French shows how much
superior that firearm was to the Aus
trian carbine; but about thirteen hun
bred shots were required then to ac-
complish the destruction of single
soldier. 1t is found in practice that
the great majority of the wasted bullets
90 over the heads of the enemy, hence
resort is sometimes had to the eXpedi-
ent of pressing down, by means of a
staff, the muskets of a platoon of men
about to fire, sergeant being detailed
for the service. When the shots are
aimed at an isolated soldier, the chances
against him are, of course, greater, but
even then the waste of lead is some
thing enormous. In the Franco-Prus-
sian war, according to an officer who
witnessed the performance, French
company of chaSSeurS fired for quar-
ter of an hour at a German mounted
sentry posted on hillock about three
hundred yards off. Full four hundred
shots were fired before either man or
horse was hit. A really expert marks
man would probably have picked off
the man at the very first attempt, or
certainly at the second.-Jomnal Of
