HIGH-PRICED ERRORS.
What Misplaced Comma Cost
the Government.

A trifling error sometimes has pretty
serious result. Edmund Alton, in tell
ing the readers of st. Nicholas about
the way that things are done at Wash
lngton, says:
Some of the rolls received at the state
department are disfigured by erasures,
interlineations and blots, by errors in
photography, capitalization and punctu-
alton, and by hieroglyphic manging.
that suggest the masterpieces" of
schOolboy art. These and more serious
imperfectionS. once placed upon the
parchment roll, are law. However
glaring the blunder, however mischiev-
Gus the distortion or omission, the de-
partment is pOwerleSs to add a cor
rectiOn dot or stroke.
Mistakes made by congressional en-
rolling clerks have undone legislation
accomplished by congress after hours
of debate. An item of 100000 for pub
lie purposes was bodily left out in the
enrolment of a recent appropriation
act, and the substitution of a comma
for hyphen in tranScribing a tariff
measure some years ago caused a loss
to the government of thousands of dol
lars before the error was detected and
further loss arrested by the passage of
another act.
These are but specimen cases. 1t is
humiliating to think that a sleepy or
incompetent clerk should be able to
Illustrate the legislative will of nation,
and startling to reflect on the opDor-
tunitieS for fraud by deliberate tamper-
ing with the public rolls.

THREE KINDS OFLIARS.
Their Ciassification-A Specimen
Story by One of Them.

Peck's Sun,
There seems to be reason for classifi-
cation of liars. The ornamental liar is
not an unmitigated evil. He is medi-
cine to the melancholic and moonstruck.
If taken with moderation he is an in
splration to the imagination: he causes
the eye to roll in a fine frenzy, and.
withal, he is good for the digestion.
There is no record of fit place, ter
restrial or celestial, for the coward liar
the man who lies because he is afraid
to tell the truth, or becauSe-and this is
more often the case--he would rather
please than be right. His right home
must be in that region where the sup
ply OF natural gas is unlimited, and
where it is not consumed by meter
measurement.
Then there is the honest liar. He is
the outgroWth of one of the other spe-
cies. He tells fairy stories until they
become to him as truth. One of this
kind was encountered by an Indianapo-
lis News reporter.
Il came near losing my life the first
time l drove to Indianapolis" he re-
marked. 81 was boy of twelve years,
and father had sent me to the city with

Some of the Curious Customs of
the Acknowledged Nation.
Philadelphia Times
In Japan almost every one carries a
lantern. By day and night it is dang
ling at his belt. 1t resembles thin,
fiat box. Each end of the box is fast
ened to sort of paper, which, lying in
folds, forms, when drawn out, Ian
tern. The Japanese usually carries
also tiny wooden box, shaped like a
cylinder, to hold his candle. A small
medicine chest, with half a dozen little
boxes, each containing a small portion
of medicine, fan, a pipe and short
sword, all form a part of the outfit. Phe
belt of a Japanese is, therefore, very
important part of his dress.
His slippers consist of sole with a
wOrsted thread at the upper end.
through which the great toe is thrust to
keep it on the foot. His pillow is a
framework of whalebOne or some such
substance, into which the back of the
neck near the head fits. This is to keen
his knot of hair in order, for he does
not have his hair dressed every day.
and therefore is obliged to take care of
the piece, which is creased and bound
into queue, the rest of the head being
closely shaven.
The rich Japanese send their children
to school in inferior garments, in order
that the children of the poor may not be
ashamed to wear their shabby clothes.

Agencies Will All Fol-
low.
Special to the Globe.

Special to the Globe.
CHAMBERLAIN. S. D., April 19.-The
news received by courier from Lower
Bruie this week is very encouraging.
A Lower Brule Indian, who has been
visiting among his brethren at Rosebed
and Pine Ridge agencies for several
months, has returned, and brings the
welcome intelligence from those agen-
cies that the Indians there will sign
when the commission visits them. This
is the first reliable news that has ar
rived from the lower agencies, and it is
very gratifying. No trouble had been
anticipated at Pine Ridge, but Rosebud
had been considered trifle doubtful, as
the Indians there are composed of the
widest and most unciviliZed element
Oh the whole reservation. The large
number of Indians at this agency, there
being, i'll the neighborhood of 1900,
would make 1T necessary to secure some
signatures there, even if every Indian
at the other agencies would sign, which,
OF course, cannot be expected. The
Lower Brule Indian who brought the
news took part in several of
THE GRAND POWWOWS
at Rose bud to fully discuss the Sioux
bill, and his statement that the Rose
buds will sign can be relied upon. No
doubt whatever has been expressed as
to the acceptance of the Sioux bill by
the Pine Ridge Indians, as under sec
ton 81 of this bill these Indians are
given $4,000 in cash as payment for
horses owned by them and cOnfiScated
by United States cavalry during the
little Indian unpleaSantness in 1876.
Red Cloud. head chief at Pine Ridge.
has been trying for years to have the
government pay this claim. but without
success. The Indian defense people,
however, had the claim embodied in the
present Sioux bill, and should the bill
be ratified by the Indians, Red Cloud
and his followers will
GET THEIR FINGERS
on this neat little sum, but in case the
bill is not ratified the money will not be
paid to them; SO it will be seen that Red
Cloud and his braves will work their
hardest to have the Sioux bill ratified
by their people. The favorable atti-
tude of the Indians at Standing Rock
agency can be traced to the influence of
Red Cloud, who has many relatives
among the Standing Rock Sioux. Coun-
ellis are being held at other agencies to
talk about the bill, and there is no rea-
s0nable doubt but that Red Cloud has
his chiefs distributed over the entire
reservation for the purpose of getting
the Indians into line for the acceptance
of the act. For many years the fight for
the opening OF the reservation has been
Waged, but it is now drawing to close,
and the many years labor will terminate

Endorsed sawyer's Check.

Senator Sawyer tells a very good
story on himself. There was a man
up in the Oshkosh country named Ben
Hutchinson, who was a great boaster.
If he cut one log he would be sure to
report hundred. One season he did
some logging for Mr.. Sawyer. and for
his pay received a check on the National
bank of Oshkosh for S120, payable to
his order. Mr.. Hutchinson had never
had such an experience before. aud he
showed the check to his friends with
great deal of JUNCTION before he took it
to the bank to get it cashed. When he
did so the teller, of course. made him
write his name on the back of the
paper. and that was an incident of still
greater Importance in Mr.. Hutchlnson's
life. When he went to his home up in
the woods, he said to everybody that
he met OH the way:
'Old Sawyer can brag as much as
he's mind to about his money. but the
bank made me indorse his check before
they would cash it,

buried in that famous sacred edifice
outside the walls of Rome known as the
Church of st. John Lateran. He has
even approved the design for his
sepulchral monument which the Off

order, so that the cardinals will not
have any trouble in settling the details.

CHICAGO, April 19.-The Will of the
late John d. Jennings, the pioneer real
estate dealer. was probated to-day, and
letters of administration were granted
to his widow, Hannah w. Jennings.
The will, which disposes of an estate of
nearly S3,OOO,00O, the bulk of which is in
real estate, was drawn on Jan. Is. 1887.
The household goods, pictures, etc.,
are left to the widow, along with one
third of the income of the whole

ties of $1,000 each are given
to four nephews of the deceased,
Samuel H., Charles F., William G. and
John A. Jennings. and Charles N. Bril-
see, nephew of the wife. The will
provides that the estate be kept intact,
and that its management be entrusted
to the Mutual Trust society. The
trustees are directed to pay an annuity
of $4,000 to Eliza Brizsee, a sister of
the deceased, and 5000 to John Henry
Jennings, a grandson, until he is TWEEN
ty-five years old. This will occur in
June. 1900, and at the same time the
whole income of the estate, after the
payment of all debts and anDuities. is
to be divided into three equal parts for
