Long Branch has always exerted q pc

what you would think him to be-some-
thing towering and impressive. Some
Of the strongest of them are about as in
significant looking as a last years null
tein stalk. But the Branch is alive with
all sorts of politicians, impressive and
otherwise, from the real statesman to the
New York saloon Alderman, whose dyed

clothes and vulgar stamp him at

Queen yietoria's Coach Horses.

The eight horses attached to Queen
victoria's coach used upon state occa-
sions are Of the famous H%anoverian breed
big, stalwart creams with CHASTITY WALL
eyes; most folk pronounce thcrA splendid
specimens of equine beauty. These horses
are still bred In Hanover, and the sever.
est pains are taken to keep the stock
pure. If at birth the colt is not q pure
cream, or if subsequently it develops
some defect, it is killed. In this way
o Gut sound aud distinct-colored
horses are to be met with in this peculiar
brand. In Hanover, however, all the
horses are not first class; about fifty per
cent. of the horses you see in the streets
are slight and ill-shapen and bony crea-
lures.
The Dutch horses seen 10 average bet
ter than those of any other nation; they
are of noble size, of distinct color, and
are strong, hardy and intelligent. Nearly
all the horses you see in Holland are
sleek, glossy and handsome. The Dutch
man takes the best care of his horse. If
the weather be Indictment he leaves the
horse at home in the warm stable and
bitches up his wife and the family dog TO
the plough or to the farm wagon. In
Germany the larger dogs are made to dc
service as drawers of small carts; a stout
dog, properly broken, will outwork the
average pony. Then, too, while the mas

aThe Angel Of the Crimea.n

The name Of Florence Nightingale has
been familiar to two generations and
will continue to hold a high place in
history through the services she rendered
to suffering men. Miss Nightingale was
called "The Angel of the Crimea" by
the grateful British soldiers who owed
SO much to her for her splendid work
during the war with Russia. A few
weeks ago, on the occasion of her seven
tieth birthday, all England rang with her
praises. The Prince of Wales delivered
a eulogy of her at the training school
for nurses which she had founded IN
London and Queen Victoria sent her a
letter of congratulation by a special mes
senger. But that day was one of grief
for her, for the telegraph had brought
the news of her sisters death. Miss
Nightingale was the daughter of an Eng
lish country gentleman, and was born IN
Florence, Italy, while the family were
on a continental tour. While a mere
girl she developed the benevolent dis
position which has since made her fam
Gus. She nursed Arabs in Egypt, spent
much of her time in the London hospitals,
and finally resolved to devote herself en-
tirely to hospital work. She became Q
pupil at e German hospital and went
through a regular course Of training.

Birth Of q Cyclone.

The inhabitants of Connolly Springs, .
small hamlet near Nevada, No., were
thrown into o terrible fright by the for
nation Of a cyclone directly over their
town, says the St. Louis Globe Democrat.
The section was devastated by q cy-
clone about two years ago, and the peo-.
pie knew by experience what to expect.
AS described by an eyewitness, it re-
ssmbled the lower half Of big balloon.
From the sack-like lower end q white rib
~kn-like streamer had q seFpentine mo-
ton and seemed in great commotion.
It swung OF nearly horizontally to che
south for some distance from the main
cloud. when it curved and took . per
pendicular course. About three uiles east
of Connolly Springs a long piece Of thil
whirling ribbon seemed to break loose
and dart to the earth, from which soon
appeared q great cloud Of dust and
debris. U
The cloud, with its trailing streamer,
moved off in On easterly and northerlJ
direction over st. Clair County, appear
ing to get nearer the earth. So Far d
heard from, no particular damage VA
done in that county.

EDUCATING THE INDIANS.
TEACHING BOYS AND GIRLS AT
A GOVERNMENT SCHOOL.

A Ten-Year Course of Study-What is
Taught-Instruction in Trades,
Farming and Household Duties.
With se~venty-six Sioux children from
Dakota and ffty-one from tribes in the
Indian Territory, the great Indian train
ing school at Carlisle, Penn, was opened
November 1, 1879. 1t now has 800 en-
rolled, representing fifty different tribes,
and the graduating class this year mum
bered forty-three. In the early years the
school was obliged to breast a fierce OPP
position from many quarters, but year by
year the school grew. The name OF
Carlisle is now known in every Indian
camp and there are few reservations east
of the Sierras which have not in them re-
turned Carlisle students.
The course of study pursued comprises
ten years training in the ordinary Eng
lish branches, and at the end of the ten
year period the Indian child is gradu-
.ated. He is still two years below the
grade of the high school graduate in the
public schools, but he car read, write
and figure his way alongside the average
white boy.
The children upon entering the school
are filthy, unframed to habits of cleanh-
ness, welded to the vices of the savage
and ACQUIRED in the habiliments of the
wigwam. Their hair is long and the
comb and brush are strangers.
The school work proper at Carlisle is
supplemented and made all the more
useful by systematic industrial training.
Many of the boys are apprenticed to
trades at which they are obliged to labor
a part of every day. Those who have
no aptitude for the trades are assigned
to farm work and employed in the dairy.
Hundreds of boys have been sent out to
farmers and dairymen and others to
tradesmen and mechanics, where they
can learn not only to work, but learn
also how white people live.
The girls are likewise taught
house duties, gardening, dairying,
etc. Every pupil, male Oh female,
at Carlisle, works every day except holi-
days and when ill. As a consequence
every pupil returns to home knowing
how to do something and to do it we'll,
whether he uses his knowledge or otner.
wise.
TAare are shops in which blacksmith
ing, printing, carpentering, shoemaking,
harnessmaking, tailoring, tin work and
wagon making are skilfully done and
taught. The pupils of Carlisle make
their own clothing, boots and shoes, and
do nearly all the mechanical work about
the large establishment.
