Indian Mounds in Iowa.

According to intelligence from that
State several Indian mounds were re-
Gently opened in the country around
Dubuque, "all seeming to confirm the
theory that these mounds contain the
relics of a prehistoric race, differing
greatly from the American Indian, and
a vastly superior order OF intelligence
and civilization. Last week several
skeletons, in perfect state Of preser-
vation, where taken from a mound a
mile from Dubuque. They have been
articulated and are now on exhibition.
They are Of huge stature. Another
largo mound, at Charles City, in Floyd
County, has also been explored. Hsre
the skeletons were in trench, instead
Of on the ground, and a quantity Of
pottery, arrow-heads and stone i'm
ple1nents Of peculiar design were also
found. The most curious relic was q
vase with a rim orramented in the
same fashion as vases found in ancient
English mounds and described in the
report OF the United States Bureau OF
Ethnology. That report states that
specimens OF this kind are exceedingly
rare in this country. Further expaora-
tions are tc be made

SUNDAY in Paris.

Every year Partisan tradespeople are
becoming less disposed to Sunday shop
keeping, and there are even fewer arti-
sans to te seen at work than was formerly
the case, says a correspondent. The III
habitants of the proverbially lively city
have net, of course, adopted the strict
Sabbatarianism of their British neigh
bors, and it is even doubtful if many of
them patroniZe the metropolitan churches
on Sunday mornings. Their great OBJ
iect seems to be to extract as much ra-
Iional amusement as possible out OF the
one tav in the week when they arc not
tied down to their eternal desks, ledgers
and counters. Dissipation there may be
in some cases, and there is much un-
goGly revelry carried on during Sunday
evcninss in second class cafes, low dane
inc saloons and absinthe reeking resorts
of the "Assommoir" type; but the re-
spectacle portion Of the community takes
lis holiday in a decent fashion, and en-
iovs itself in manner ut which only the
sou:cst disciple of Calvin or the most
melancholy minded follower of Me
l.rcthon could cavil. Serious, steady
and respectable Parisians walk leisurely
ii the Champs Elysees on Sundays, when
the weather permits, or attend morning
performances il the theatres or the after
noon ccacerts. Then they so home to
dinner and have q family reunion, or
wind Up by q quiet game OF cards or
traG%;l:, in 4 favorite cafe.-Boston

The "Block" SyStcr,l,

The block system, as it is now termed
in railroad parlance, is simply the Givis-
ion Of railway into certain number Of
what are called telegraphic districts, the
distance between which is determined
By the amount of traffic, and each block
station has signaling instruments by
which the signal man can communicate
with tie box On each side of him. Now,
when q train enters any block, q sema-
phore signal is lowered, and no train is
allowed to follow until the one in front
has reached the end Of the block, when
the signal is raised and at the same time
lowered for the block ahead, etc. The
block systems in use in Europe and iii
the United States employ mechanical
devices for lowering and raising the out
door signal; but these, it is thought, will
eventually be replaced by automatic de-

Curious Chinese Notions.

Both savage and semi-barbarous peo-
pie have always exhibited a greatrepug-
nance to any surgical operation, however
necessary, which involves amputation.
The North China Herald, in commenting
upon this circumstance, points out that
the Chinese have always shown this
repu@nance, not on account OF fear OF
pain. for they arc patient under all kinds
Of physical suffering, but because they
look upon it as duty to keep the body
intact. If they submit to the amputa-
ton of limb, they invariably ask for
the severed Iaember, and keep it III a
box, to be buried in due time with the
owner. Sometimes they will actually
eat it. thinking it only right that that
which has been taken from the body
should be returned to it.
On the same principle an extracted
tooth will be carefully preserved. or
ground to powder and swallowed i'll
water. Another curious phase of the
same idea is seen in the belief that q sick
parent can be cured by broth made from
flesh cut from . living child. and it is
looked upon as a sign of flial piety for
the child to submit himself to an opera
ton for that purpose. The child is sup
l:csed to be of the vital essence of the
;,rcmt, and if a portion OF this essence

The Climate of Mexico.

The great advantage of a tropical
country as q place to live in, day in and
dav out. is the freedom from the cares
incident to cold climate. There is no
fire to be tended, no thick garments to be
worn, no putting on of orershoes, no
shiverinc at night under insufficient
clothing. The cold is not cold to q trav-
eler fresh from the north and in good
health. The invalid will feel the relative
cold OF tropical nights in winter just as
does a resident not very healthy, whose
blood has been thinned by the action Of
the climate enduring over series OF
years. The climate, either on the table
lands or in the lower and warmer coun-
try. docs not prevent out Of door life at
any season. In fact, one of necessity
gets much outdoor air. 1t is rare day
in the coldest weeks of the short table
land winter when windows are closed
half a day. At nightfall the doors and
windows are closed to keep out the chill,
but the cold will rarely register below
G. degs. +.
The most disagreeable thing about
household life in New England during
the winter is the overheating of rooms.
The temptation is to make them over
hot. People even get to enjoy dry heat
of 50 degs. But the danger comes when
You go out of doors into the keen and
eager air. In Mexican houses there Is
little difference at any time between the
air in doors and that of out of doors. In
summer the house is cooler than the
street into which the clear and dazzling
tropical sun is pouring its rays, but there
is no such contrast of indoor and out
door temperature as one finds in the
north in the winter months.
Here we have to be careful on leaving
q lamp lighted room in the evening and
going out Of doors not to catch cold in
the eyes, for it is q popularity of the
tropics that the eyes are especially sensi-
tive to sudden changes from light to
darkness. knew Of a lawyer who one
evening sat in his study at home writing
with a bright light at his elbow. He
worked few hours, and suddenly went
out into the cool darkness of the corri-
dor Of the patio, or courtyard. He was
struck blind, and hopelessly.
| have heard that similar risks are
characteristic Of the Cuban climate.
Most MeXicans on winter evenings, when
emerging from the theatre or house,
put a handkerchief to their nostrils so as
to take in the cooler air slowly, and
many men light cigar or cigarette to
warrn the air passing into the lungs.
One learns to respect these customs after
having had his eyes ache for a week as
the result of running out Of lighted
room into the courtyard, or q ter having
got severe head cold fron similar
inprudence.-City Of Mexico Cor. Bos-

How "poc" Smart Broke the Banks.

doc" Smart, a noted Western bandit,
with two confederates, bought all the
playing cards at Ell Paso, at Goldsberg's s
stationery store, paying for them S15,
and when questioned as to what they in
tended doing with them said that they
were going up in the mines and expected
to do a great business, but if they failed
would like the privilege to return what
they did not use. Goldsberg consented,
and in few days they returned with
about half Of them.
This same Goldsbcrg was in the habit
Of furnishing all the faro banks in town
with cards, and upon receiving orders
for them and having none on hand eN-
ccpt those returned by Smart he divided
tie lot between the different "banks,'
and on the same night every "bank" in
Fl Paso was sbustcd" by Smart and q
few of his confederates. The last ''5ank
broke" examined their cards, and found
that every card had been ''pinched."
An investigation at each bank"
showed their cards "pinched' in the
same manner. It was found out next
day that Smart had returned these cards
to Goldsbcrg, ard, Of course, it was de-
cilcd that Smart and his gang ''rinched''
them. Tho town was too hot for him
for several days after. 1t is estimated
that tho winnings were about Sl2o, 900.
