LONG-L!VED INDIANS.

 Score Years of Age.

Aged Redskins Among Whom Is One Six
 Score Years of Age.
 Deputy United States Marshal Ralph Dominguez. Of Los Angeles, tells a very strange tale of the extraordinary lon- geyity of some Indians upon whom he served some papers recently.
 Five Mission Indians were subpn- naed to testify in a case wherein the Government is plaintiff. The point involved is as to whether or not the Indians shall be maintained in the possession of the Potrero reservation, which comprises 5000 acres of the finest land in Southern California. The five Indians in question were wanted to testify as to how long they had had possession of the reser- vation, and their ages ranged from eighty to 20 years Mr. Dominguez found them in the Yuma desert, about ten miles tho other side of Indio
 The eldest of the quintette was Juan Sabichi, who had been on earth 120 years. Francisco Apache was aged 115 years. Juan Largo had only lived 100 years. Juan Cohulla was born ninety-fve years ago. The youth of the party was chief Cabazon, who had only recollected of seeing eighty sum- mers pass.
 Juan Sabichi and Francisco Apache reeolleet of the commencement of the work on the mission at Potrero, which. as historical fact, was built one hundred and ten years ago. They both assisted in the construction of the antique temple. as they carried adobe and in that way aided i'll the work On account of their extreme age they can hardly walk now, but all things considered they are quite "ehipper ;"
 Francisco Apache was married four teen years ago, when he was over one hundred years old. In honor of his union to an Apache woman, who on the occasion was blushing bride of sixty summers, he added to his name the name of the tribe his wife was member of
 Four years ago the father of Chief Cabazon died at the advanced age of one hundred and forty years. and then his son succeeded to the chief tainship. These extraordinary in stances of the longevity of the Mis- sion Indians. who number about six hundred, speak great deal for the climate of the Yuma desert. where during all this time they have lived undisturbed by the white man.-San Diego (Cal) Union.

THE WESTERN COWBOY.
Qualities That Are Indispensable to Suc-
 cess on tho Plains.

To be a successful COW wboy one must be skillful in four qualities. He must be good rider, have complete con- trol of his lariat, a good knowledge of the country and be keen judge of cattle and their brands Riding all sorts of horses, as he does, soon gives him an intuitive knowledge as to whether any particular horse will give him trouble, and when once on he has got to stick for all he knows how. His rope comes in handy fifty times a day, either to catch some maddened COW or runaway calf, to haul wood and hundreds of other uses. Without a knowledge of the country he could never pilot branch of cattle to the main herd or could he look up stravs, and finally other cattlemen would palm off the most miserable specimens upon him if he could not tell good beef from bad. His readiness to dis tinguish and knowledge of the vari- is exceedingly important, especially in the spring, as disputes frequently arise.
 All these qualities really good cowman excels in, and when to these Is added cheerfulness, adaptability and good humor, it is hard to find a more pleasant companion. The life Is hard, but the freedom and excite ment seem in most instances to out weigh the hardships Philadelphia Times.

The following lines are copied from the obituary column of rural New York journal: 1t is with deep regret that we chronicle the death of c. H. M, of -, New York. He passed away on Monday morning, March 25th, after an illness of little more than three days -. We had been acquainted for five years. We began in the poultry business at the same time. both buying Wyandotte eggs of the same man. The writer soon gave up the breed and kept only Langshans. But George kept his Wyandottes, bought only the best, bred carefully; and though we have seen many fine birds we know of few which lay more and larger eggs or breed finer chicks than his do. We have had many fowls and eggs of him. and would as quick trust him as ourself to ship eggs or to select stock. '-Harper's Mapa- zine.

VENETIAN GONDOLlERS.
Not Quite as Picturesque as Painted by
 Sentimental Tourists.


 Sentimental Tourists.
 It is with grief that I remind my untraveled reader that in Venice the gondala is the cab. Is the cabman poetic object-a person to whom you would indite lyrics OF elegies? l trow not. But on the other hand, the gon- dolier, unlike the London cabman, has his redeeming qualities. He is pict- ufe5que He used to be more so in the days when he wore red silk stock ings and blue silk jacket, and when the boat he propelled was as gay thing as himself. He is also very amenable to eivility. He will quarrel with the portly Briton who speaks no language but English. and after row tenders in payment sum of money he deems unworth of him, though it be in excess of the tariff. But the quar- rel will be all on his side, and 1t will soon dissolve away into resonant laughter as he invites his copper-eol- ored comrades to share the spectacle of the Bfiton walking off as if he heard not a word of his plea The cabman, in such case, would of course proceed to maledictions, and perhaps go further still. Indeed, when all is said, the gondolier is not bad fellow, though, like the pigeons, somewhat spoiled by being photographed in his boat by en- terprising amateurs a hundred times  in the year But in spring, notwith standing the romance of them, one is not strongly attracted toward gondola or gondolier. When a .boraa is blowing upon the city from the mount aims behind Trieste. and all the lagoon is under a blue-gray haze, chilly and thick, one is prone to think of fires, not aquatic expeditions. And many a martyred paterfamilias and his wife, who, at their eldest daughters bidding, have inelegantly wriggled into the boat, and aided by the smil. ing, com passionate oarsman, judicious- ly dispersed their offspring about the remaining space thereof. are as eager to leave as they were unwilling to en- eeI It. II tilcy odH Ot iiiuu0eu eo ilidhe another such excursion, they take wool for their ears and enough wraps for a regiment-reckles of the daughters indignant demur about "how it will look. A playful form of compliment which the gondoliers bandy about when they are dis pleased with each other brings me to another character istlc of Venice. If, in conveying his party through the ''canaletti, the oarsman clashes with boat coming in the contrary direction, he will proba- as well as much else.-Cornhill Maga- zine.
