Proprietor and Reporter.

They tell in Chicago story about
Uncle Joseph Medill, the owner of the
Chicago Tribune, and new reporter of
that paper. The reporter was sent the
other evening to write up reception.
He got along all right until he met fine
looking, gray bearded old gentleman, the
center of group of Ladies and gentlemen.
AS is customary, apparently, in Chicago,
the reporter entered the group and got the
names of those present, but when he
asked for the old gentleman's he was an
swered by loud and exasperating ''Eh?"
81 should like your name, please. "
"Eh2 What2 Speak louder!" yelled the
old gentleman, putting his, hand to his
ear. The reporter filled his lungs with
air and then yelled: ~ AIN reporter
and would like your name" "Oh, re-
porter, eh9 What papere" "The Tribune;
will you please give me your name2" The
old man looked at the young man kindly,
stroked his beard, and said, quietly,
"Joseph Medill."

Insurance for Physical Wrecks.

The newest thing in the way of life
insurance, or, more properly speaking,
death insurance, has within few days
established itself in this city, and the
peculiar feature about this company is
that it gains more by the death of its
policy holders than by their prolonged
existence. Under the plan upon which
the scheme is operated, the insured pays a
certain amount per year up to five years.
If he dies within that period, his heirs
receive the amount he has paid in without
interest. If he lives beyond five years,
his heirs fare better, for they receive what
he has paid in with interest. If he is SC
fortunate as to survive ten years, he is
entitled to the full face of his policy, pro-
vided the company survives. 1t IS not
necessary to say that no medical exami-
nation attends the would-be insurers APP
plication, and that complete physical
wrecks are in demand.-St. Louis Star

A Fo0lhardy Indian.

Until few years ago the Arikara
Indians living at Fort Berthold, on the
Upper Missouri Oakota), held series
of interesting ceremonies, conducted by
their medicine men. These ceremonies,
says writer in the Philadelphia Press,
usually occupying about seven weeks,
were attended by Indian visitors from all
directions. At the conclusion of them
one day was generally set apart for an
extraordinary display of what might be
termed allegorical exhibitions, which
took place in the open air around the
vicinity of the sacred or medicine lodge.
1t was customary. at such times, for
one of the. medicine men to display feats
Of courage-though they were in reality
conjuring-and one of the tricks was for
the medicine man to stand up and allow
confederate to shoot at him with q rifle,
the principal to catch the ball between
his teeth. 1t happened upon one of
these occasions that the "fellow"
made public challenge, as usual, for any
one to step forward and discharge gun
at him. At previous times the medicine
man would load his own gun in the pres
ence of the tribe, but on account of a
slot filed in the barrel of the rifle the ball
escaped, and there was no harm in the
charge of powder; the ball itself was
hidden under his tongue, and would be
seen by the Indians after the discharge.
of course, between his teeth.
In the last instance, the reservation
compelling the challenged man to use the
medicine mans gum was omitted 4 a
Cree Indian, from the Northwest Terri
tory, who, by the way, had a drudge
against The Arikara, Immediately accepted
the challenge and stepped back to fire.
The Arikara was fully aware of his dan
ger, as his enemy was armed with Win
chester, but rather than be designated
coward he stepped back to receive the
shot, The Cree fired, and the Arikara
fell, the ball having passed through his
forehead.

Farm School for Street Arabs.

There is queer little school on an
island down Boston harbor, known as
the farm school, and it is truly a Bos-
tonian institution. Over fifty years ago,
it was organized for ''idle and morally
exposed" boys, and Thompson's Island
was bought. The school is not a reforma-,
tory, however, and now admits no boy
Objectionable from moral standpoint.
Over 1900 boys have been educated
there, and have gone from their water
surrounded alma mater to positions Of
honor and trust. Reading, spelling,
writing, arithmetic, geography, gram
mar, history, drawing, instrumental and
vocal music are taught. There are shops
in which they become skilled in the use
of tools and learn trades. A few days
ago the friends and relatives of the boys
went to the island on special steamer to
inspect the school and have a grand time.
1t was the first visit since last November.

An Indian Romance.

An interesting romance has Just come
to light at Whites Indian Manual Labor
Institute, near Wabash, Ind, where
Indian children are being educated at
Government expense. 1t has been dis
covered that Lizzie Carlow, half breed
Sioux Indian maiden from the Pine Ridge
Agency in Dakota, has rich and influential
relatives in Baltimore and at GAINESVILLE,
Ohio. Her father, John Carlow, left
Baltimore twenty years ago for the Black
Hills, and he has not since been seen by
his Eastern relatives. Years ago Carlow
married an Indian woman and the little
girl now at the institute here was the re-
suit of the union. Recently Carlow, who
is still in the West, sent Lizzies photo
graph and one of her monthly merit cards
given by the institute to his relatives,
which was their first intimation of her
existence. They have become greatly
interested and have written to have Lizzie
pass her coming vacation with them.
The girl went to GAINESVILLE to see her
aunt, whose husband is Superintendent
of the Water Works at that place. Globe

In September, 1890, the first paper
mill in America was erected in Rox-
borough, Philadelphia. The first paper
maker was Wilhelm Rittenhousen, now
anglicized into William Rittenhouse. 1t
is now proposed to celebrate the BIZ
centennial of this event in September,
1890, and the paper-makers and the print
ers of the United States are asked to
send delegates to preliminary meeting,
to be held in Philadelphia next Septem-
Der. On the advice and with the ap-
proval of Mr.. G.. w. Childs, Horatio
Gates Jones, of Philadelphia, has sent a
circular embodying these facts to mem
bers of the trade throughout the United

The Cincinnati Bnquirer relates that
when one Charles Weber stood up in a
court in that city tho other day for ex-
animation as to his qualifications as a
juror, he was asked how many children
he had. He declined to answer what he
considered an irrelevant question, and
appealed to the court. He was ordered
to answer, and said he was the father of
five pairs of twins, all alive and healthy.
He was accepted as juror.

Gull's Eggs,

Gull's eggs are among the curiosities
of the San Francisco market. They are
twenty-five cents dozen, and are brought
chiefly from the Farallones in the fishing
schooners. The handsome eggs of the
MUIR bird will also be introduced
into the market within the next
two or three weeks. The gull's eggs are
said to taste little fshy, as might be
expected, but the ''murr" eggs are as
great delicacy as the plover's of the
Old World, which they greatly resemble.

Tt is memorable fact that the United
States, where there is doctor for every
aggregate of 600 human beings, show the
lowest death rate in the world. The
average life expectancy in the United
States is now tifty-fve years. In Eng
land, among the inhabitants of towns it is
fifty, and among the rural population
more than fifty-four. Russians and
Chilians have life expectancy of but
twenty y-eight years. In Rome the aver
age life expectancy is now forty years,
whereas it was but eighteen in the time
of the Caesars. In the England of Eliza
beth it was only twenty. This great
and progressive improvement is ascribed
to better drainage and diet, greater per-
sonal cleanliness, to vaccination, better
medical knowledge, the use of anesthe-
tics and febrifuges. 1t is estimated that
quinine alone has added two years to the
average life of civilized man.

Says the New York Tribune. "The
Governor of Maine on one occasion
signed bill and then changed his mind,
erased his signature and wrote a veto
instead. This gave rise to an interesting
controversy over the question whether,
when bill was signed, it was not law,
which could only be annulled by the
action of the Legislature itself. The
matter was carried to the courts, which
have just decided that the veto was
authoritative. The right of a woman to
change her mind has long been conceded
by common consent. We believe this is
the first case on record in which mans
right to do the same has been declared
with the sanction of law"

One of the most lamentable features
of the Conemaugh disaster is the fact
that such great number of children
have been left orphans. When the i'm
mediate wants of the sufferers shall have
been supplied and avenues of work opened
up, the Philadelphia Telegraph suggests
that whatever money there may be left
could not be better applied than in the
creation of a permanent fund to help
maintain and educate these helpless
waifs-the flotsam and jetsam of flood
of death and ruin.
