"Ouida" of the Present.

Oulda is not the picturesque figure in litera-
ture she once was. When she roamed about
the grounds of her Florentine villa, with her
golden hair flying in the wind and an atmos-
phere of mystery enveloping her, she was a
flashing, dazzling comet, whose like we have
not had since. Today Ouida does her griz-
zled gold into a decorous knot, her hard,
severe profile is more suggestive of philoso-
phical research than of poetry and passion,
and her works grow colder and more analyti-
cal with each relentless year. The erotcism
of her youth she regards with indifference or
contempt, and not suggestion of it creep
into the mathematical works of her later
years 1t is somewhat to be regretted, as she
is the only novelist who has ever done the
erotic without bungling. The mystery about
her life will probably never be cleared; nor
is it likely that we shall ever know where she
got her extraordinary variety of information
about almost every condition of life j. B.
Lippincott, the publisher, put the question to
her squarely once: "Where did you get all
this informationH' and she as squarely an
swered him: 1T is none of your business. >
Since the Prince Staffa trihed with her
boarded affections, Ouida's characters hav,
been drawn from life, and poor Florence is in
state of mental earthquake from one book
to the next. She confesses to the quality Of
her temper and threatens "a rafting wind
up" before the Reaper reaches hcr.-Curent

Writing from Grahamstown, Cape Colony,
Mr.. L. A. Eddie gives an account of some ex-
traordinary showers that fell there A storm
commenced near midday and lasted till late
the next morning. At intervals during this
period heavy showers Of rain fell, after which
large areas were found to be covered with
water as black as ink. Two theories are put
forward to account for the observed facts,
one attributing it to dust in the air from a
recent volcanic eruption, while tho other con-
siders the phenomena to be due to the passage
of the earth through dense meteoric stream,
the dust Of which, suspended in the atmos
phere, was carried down by the rain, and be-
ing essentially iron, formed, on being mixed
with the organic acids of the soil, true ink.

4 Mechanical Fisherman.

A Marylander who has sat in the hot sun
hour after hour waiting for bite has in
vented an automatic fishing pole The pole
rests on two supports, on the shorter of which
it works by a pivot. Underneath the two
branches of the larger support are two strong
spiral springs. These are fastened down in
place by catch which communicates through
a long arm with the reel When the fish is
hooked and pulls on the line the reel turns.
This throws off the Grm which in turn re-
lcascs the double springs. Up goes the pole.

Strange Contents of a Cheese.

Gus incident that occurred at his house. He
purchased ten pound piece of cheese at
Col. Messer's grocery, from which slices have
been cut as needed. While making another cut
ting, the knife struck some hard substance in
the cheese, which proved to be an extra
heavy plain gold ring. On the inside of the
band was engraved lady's first name, evil

ring was probably lost in the process of
cheese making.-Hazerhn NIass) Gazette.

QUEER INDIAN NAMES.
NOMENCLATURE OF THE RED MAN
FOUND ON A LEGAL DOCUMENT.
How an Indian Treaty Is Signed-LonG
and Short Names by Means of Which
the Sguaws Notify Their Lords That Dim
ner Is Ready-No Repetitions.

A few of the Indian names, culled from the
large and interesting number which adorn
bill presented in congress, will be interesting
reading and will afford an idea of those of
many. The first one the eye rests upon is
Medicine Bear" whose Indian name, briefer
than many others, is Mattowakan yellow
Eagle" whose Indian name is Wamadege
follows Medicine Bear. He has learned to
revere the symbol of American liberty, and
has honored him by taking his name
thus doing a great deal more toward
perpetuating one of our honored insttu
lions than congress, which is disposed to
overlook such matters, dear to tho heart of
every true American lover of liberty. Deer

History's story Of tho Black Hawk war is
familiar to this generation, and the present
warrior of that namo will lose none of the
reputation of his namesake for bravery by
belonging to the Sioux. big Eagle" next
appends his name He may or he may not
be bigger man than Yellow Eagle but his
name is not so smooth and agreeable to the
auricular organs as that of his brother. He
also adds his mite in perpetuating the repu-
tation of the emblematic bird of liberty, in
return for what the white man, with his pro-
gressive and aggressive nature, has rendered
him-a poor outcast driven to the untrodden,
unbroken wilds of the western country be-
fore his advancing state of civilization.

and that he has risen above the delights of
his namesake, whatever his propensities may
be for wriggling, squirming or infesting that
which is unwholesomc. When an Indian
takes upon himself the name of Afraid of
Bear" which a Sioux has done, it may be
taken for granted that in contradiction of his
name, he has no mortal fear of anything which
has the shape of Bruin. This Indians name
is designated as ''Matocokepa, which of itself

his ear surreptitiously or if it were uttered in

predecessors have done. 1t is not known
that this ALTERATION in Christian, or, more
properly, heather names has any special sig

The Ooundiessne,S-: the Indians domain
and their habits of roaming at leisure, unfet-
tered and unrestrained, over the land, have
educated them to this degree of wild fancy.
Rushing Eagle" Eagle Ears" walking
Eagle" Bear Eagle" have also adopted in
part the name Of some of their fellows and
all indicate to a greater or less degree the
instructive and neutral habits and inclina-
tons of these queer people, with their whole
nature always alert. Iron Necklace" was
also present when the contract was executed.
Inspired by the thrilling traditions which
have descended upon him, he has probably
selected this significant name as truly demon

whole, and apparently rejoices in the cogno-

have noticed the self assumed name of "Big

after all, men-at any rate Indian men-do
not regard an appellation of this kind with
much shrinking OF course, it is not assumed
that big Foot's" shoe is Of a larger number,
comparatively speaking, than those of many
of his white friends, but tho name, to use a
slang term, is "a dead give away" "Medi!

is that of Long Pole" OF RED Lance" and
the longest original name "Daunkapaeetcha-

has to articul2te these words when her lege
lord descends to his breakfast or arrives home
late in the evening would long ago have Pc
titioned the legislature, if such existed, to
have her husbands name changed. But
probably the mere thought of pronouncing
such q name has often had soothing effect
on heated and overtaxed brain, and in this
way have been the means of modifying the
severity of aboriginal domestic alterations

at the bill are: Stand OFF, Chief Ghost, Iron

duction of wages. II believes, that, wheth-
er the tariff be high or low, the owners of

all over the country, will pay just such
wages as the great Law Of supply and de-

The 9tmsrrat.


The Philadelphia 7imes which for years
has heen the organ Of Sam Randall has
thlslo say about the late elections; "rhe
l1sue that Is repeating the revolutionary
work OF the slavery Issue OF 1854 Is The
now vital question Of tariff reform. Il
had many preiexts In shape Of "losal Ia
sues" to open the way for party revolt;
but u thore had not been profound unrest
IN New England, In the Middle States and
the great West because OF aggressive and
needless taxation upon the nseessarles OF
lllc, and Of the open prostitution Of the
policy Of protection to monopoly greed,
no plscal lssnes" could have defeated a
republican Governor and Legislature In
Ohio, defeated a republican Governor In
Iewa, and elected democratic State tiikets
In New York, New Jersey and Virginia
BY maiOrltles which equally surprised the
leaders Of all parties. And the revolt Of
1889. like the revolt Of 1854, win grow In
power aad become more and more revo-
lulionAry In every section Of the nlen,
until needless taxation Of the people shsll
be ovcrthrown, and banded monopoly
shall cease to have special protection at
the cost ofconsuners.
The people Of this country believe In the
Iberal rrotestion of American labor. II
was 6rst thought BY wasAlnEtsn, and has
been sustained BY every President from
Washington 10 Hairison; and Il never
will be ovsrthrown In the nation unless
proleellonist leaders engulf their cause
and themselves In tie exasting greed Of
monopoly. Massachusetts and Iowa will
heartily protect the wages Of labor In our
tariff laws. but tariff taxes employed for
protection must cease with protection to
wages. With our manufacturers put up
on equality with their competitors abroad
on the question Of wages, every dollar OF
additional tax imposed Is simply inexcusa.
BILE oppression of the people. Iowa and
Massachusetts want chsarened American
products without reducing wages Of labor;
lhey want free cosl, free wool, free iron
ore and free scrap iron to enable the Ne~
England industries to live, and the farm
ers Of Iowa. with their crushing tarid tax
e on everything they use, eat and wear,
and growing mortgages on their farms,
want eheapsnsd clothing, implements and
household effects. And they not only
want them. but they must have them;
and the recent elections simply emphaslze
the purpose Of both East and West to
have honest and thorough tariff revision
and reduced taxes or revolution. II is
only history repeating itself, aad whether
Il shall be brief rebellion CT sweeping
revelation, will depend upon the leaders
Of the party in power. The democratic
leaders In 1854 learned nothing, fergOt
nothing. and were hopelessly overthrown; |;

The editor Of the Brownsville Times visit ed
Albany some days ago. and among other
things he says this about what he heard and
saws
zone other very important thing We noticed
while there, and that Is the fact thata person
can buy goods fall kinds cheaper right here
in Brownsville. than like goods can be bought
IN Albany. We took particular pains TO IN.
quirc Of those who have done trading at both
places and every person, without a single ex.
ecpsien, tesllhcs as to the above fact, The
high rents, insurance, clerk hire, taxesr ETC.,
account Cor this.
We think this buying goods CHEAPER in
Brownsville than in Albany is largely imagin
AIRY wrought up to high pitch through the
enthusiasm Of home pride which within proper
limits is eommendablc. That Albany mer
chants pay higher rates etc, is likely very true.
but these disadvantages are fully overcome by
the cheaper freighls paid by them as we'll as
the larger yearly sales on account Of denser
population, brownsville has an cnlerprising
class Of business men and we congratulate the
people Of that vicinage on their good for
