feel respecting these government
= boarding schools.
Some days ago the Commissioner
Of Indian Affairs had an interview
with a number of Sioux chiefs upon
this subject. The latter were much
opposed to having boys and glris
chosen from their tribe TO De SEMI TO
the government schools in the east,
and they urged some potent reasons
in support Of their objections. One
oftlese is the high mortality which
occurs among the pupils after they
leave the schools and return to their
tribes. The statement is made that
from thirty to seventy per cent oil
the pupils die within four years OF
the time Of leaving school and re-
turning to their native haunts. The |
rate of mortality among them while
they are attending school IS
not stated to be excessive, and
i is uncertain why so many
die after graduating. 1t is surmised
that going back to the hills and the
rude homes OF their parents, living
as the latter do after having enjoyed
the comforts Of civilization, Is one
great cause Of the high death rate
among Indian youths who eave ;
the eastern schools. III,
There is an element Of pathos in ,
another objection which the chiefs {
urged to the sending of their boys |
and girls TO the cities Of the east to ,
pc educated. They say that the
thus treated are impelled, |
" the education they receive and I
he influences which surround them 7
while at school, to desplse their par Z
.nts and kinsmen, and that T
amily ties are thus broken J
nd the hearts Of parents filed !
With grief. There Is truth and a \
ocular force in this objection. The h
indian loves his offspring as much, a
n proportion to his intelligence, as Y
ne white man does, and when he J
ees that the sending Of his child 10 9
n eastern school to be educated a
will result in making him an object
( that child's contempt, and in the y
pening Of a gap between them a
7hich makes each dead to the other, /
e will naturally hesitate to assent y
} having his child so educated. =
It is suggested that Indian chill G
rem should be instructed on their a
and that they should v
ssociate with their parents daily :,
ul'ing their school life. The n
would thus imbibe some .

lgs impaired &c their children. ,

A Wonderful Invention.

Away up skyward, in one of the mag
nifcent trade palaces so rapidly spring
ing up along Fifth Avenue in New York
city, there is a modest little laboratory
of a man soon to be we'll known in the
world of sciences. 'Gianni Bettini,
lieutenant de cavalerie," is the very un-
assuming inscription on the office door,
Let us enter and inspect the lieutenant's
wonderful talking machine, far more per-
feet, more simple, and portable than
Edison's.
The object of Bettini's machine is of
course the same as the phonograph, the
reproduction of sound. But in Bettini's
the metallic sound is done away with
and the natural timbre of the voice al
most preserved. Whisperings and aspi-
rated tones are reproduced with wonder
full fidelity. The inventor claims that it
is a general molecular vibration which
causes the emission of tones from the in
strument, and that the diaphragm is not
essential, to prove which, he removes the
diaphragm and stylus, and simply lays
the end of an ordinary screw-driver on
the revolving wax cylinder The table
itself appears TO talk, almost as distinctly
as when the stylus and trumpet were at
tached.
The icro-graphophone is designed to
be sold, when put upon the market, and
not rented. 1t can be carried in an
ordinary yalise, and it is by far the most
portable of all the talking machines yet
invented. MIR. Bettini, the inventor,
is a handsome son Of sunny Italy, and
one Of her stalwart defenders. lie is an
officer Of the army, aud is now on leave
Of absence. In person Mr.. Bettini is
most pleasing, and attributes his inven-
tions less toiuspiration than hard work.

to ride to Gabe's home with news of the
approaching fire recurred to the subject.
"Tain't too late yit, Gabe. Hadn't l
better go9"
"You can go if you want to, Dick,
but only not to my house. We need all
hands here"
The boy shamefacedly renewed his
exertions, and the others, in dogged imi-
tation Of Gabe's unfagging zeal, worked
with their heads down, Destowing all
their attention to obeying his orders.
There was silence among them except
when Gabe spoke; but amid the roaring
of the fire in the tank they could hear the
shrill voices of the women screaming to
each other, and presently there came to
their ears the welcome screech of one of
the little narrow-gauge engines. Buoyel
by repetition of the whistle, the little
band seemed to redouble their efforts.
Soon again the locomotive shrieked,
nearer to them, and there was silence
until the rumble of the train was heard.
Then the boys looked up; but Gabe did
not pause in the particular task he was
engaged upon--packing the sand be-
tween some stones. The train ran UP to
point opposite the tanks, and before it
was at stand-still men carrying picks and
shovels had leaped from the platforms
and were running to the dam, shouting
to the workers to make way for new men.
Then Gabe paused. He looked up the
valley, but could not see his home for
the dense smoke that was blowing over
the summit. He was jostled aside by the
newcomers, who came to the work
like company charging bat
terry. Gabe felt that he would not be
needed now. He could no longer re-
strain his heart. 1t called on him louder,
more urgently than it had done when
there was time for him to get to his
house before the confagration had reached
it, and he obeyed.
In the tumult he was not missed, and
no one heard the clatter of his horses
hoofs over the stony road. Bending low
over the pummel of his saddle he dashed
into the smoke. He could not see, but
he trusted his horse, now mad with
fright. Presently he said: "Thank
Godw
The lessening of the heat on his cheek,
then breath of cool air, told him that
which he had not observed-the wind
had veered, and had carried the
fire off in another direction, west
of his house, and it was safe. He
knew, too, from faith in his wife, that
she had conducted the children to place
of safety. Soon he was out of the blind
ing smoke, and the horse slackened the
pace of his own accord. Then he dis
mounted and climbed the side of the
mountain, where he soon found his family
on point of rocks.
81 saw it all, said his wife; 'but
did not know it was you working there
all that time till l saw the horse start up
the valley. Then knew" And she
kissed him.
'But the overfowl Did it Gomez"
"Yes. Just after lost sight of you
in the smoke"
"And the dam?"
sit held. See, Kendall is safe; and
there would not have been time to save
it after the train came"
And in the look of pride and love she
gave him Gabe found his reward. .-Hdr-

Walking in a Circle.

Writing of sporting in Canada, a
traveller insists upon the necessity of car
rying pocket compass. Without one,
no one can keep straight course when
the sky is overcast.
The tendency on these occasions is to
walk in circles. 1t is very annoying, but
by no means unusual to find ones self,
after two hours hard walking, at the ex-
act spot one started from. Indeed,
have completed my circle in half an hour
when lost in the woods without COM
pass. have remarked, too, that almost
invariably trend to the right, not to the
left, and on comparing notes with other
"bushwhackers, find that l am not
singular in this respect. Can it be that
the left is generally the better leg of the
two, and takes, imperceptibly, the longer
stride2

Cruel Way of Securing EiderdOwn.

The gathering of eiderdown consti-
tutes one of the most profitable employ
ments of Icelanders. This is especially
true in the islands of Fidey, Fingey, and
Ahrey, which are the favorite haunts of
the cider ducks. Here they pair and
make their nests about the beginning OF
June. Having chosen the place where
she wishes to lay her eggs, the female
plucks from her plumage feathers to line
her nest, and lays her eggs. Then the
eiderdown gatherer carries away both the
down and the eggs, in spite of a stout
resistance from the unfortunate pair. The
process is carried on again and again,
until the female duck is stripped nearly
bare, when the male comes to her assist
ance and strips himself in the same way.

ception, are under ground.
Cooking stoves, heated by electricity,
are being perfected for general use.
It is stated that electric motors are now
used in more than 1870 different indus.

1t is said that the onion is a great cure
for insomnia, and about as effective as
quinine in malaria.
1t requires an average of 1872 days for
the renewal of the nails in cold weather
and but lie in warm weather.
An English journal discusses the posi-
bility of distinguishing "high and low
born blood" by the aid of the miscro-
scope.
A Scotchman claims that he has de-
tected 10000 dust notes in the thou
sandth part of a cubic inch of the air of
a room.
The number of eggs in a six-pound
eel in November is fully 5000, 900; under
the microscope they measure eighty to
the linear inch.
The Count of Assata, in Italy, has an
electric motor in his dairy to do the
churning, work the pump and perform
various other operations.
A German has invented an apparatus
for forcing sidewise the swells in front of
fast going ships by means of steam jets
from a nozzle under the water at the bow.
In the formation of single locomotive
steam engine there are nearly 5000 pieces
to be put together, and these require to

At the Krupp Works at Essen, Ger
many, there are 1895 furnaces of various
constructions, 2S6 boilers, ninety-two
steam hammers of from 200 to 100, 900
pounds, $40 steam engines with total Of
27, 600 horsepower.
A small instrument has been devised
for use in mines to indicate the presence
of fire damp, or in gas mains to indicate
the escape of gas. The invention is based
upon the property certain metals have of
evolving heat in the presence of hydrogen
gas.
For new railroad tracks this year
1000, ,0o0 tons of steel rails will be
needed. This quantity of material, de.
livered, will cost S35, ,000,0 900. Fish
bars, frogs switches, ties, grading and
laying will bring the total cost of this
one item of railway expense to about
$100, 900, 900 for the year.
California has fruit pest in the gray
linnet, far worse and more damaging to
fruit raisers than the English sparrow.
If some means are not Systematically and
methodically adopted to exterminate this
bird there will be very little profit in fruit
raising in those sections where deciduous
fruits are exclusively produced.
A German naturalist estimates as fol-
lows the number of eggs hen may lay;
The ovary of hen contains about 600
embryo eggs, of which not more than
twenty are matured in the first year. The
second year produces 800: the third 1876,
the fourth ia; and in the following
four years the number decreases to
twenty yearly. In the ninth year only
ten eggs can be expected.

AngOra Goat farming.

Angora goat farming is perhaps the
most important and profitable industry
Of the Tasmanian farmer. This industry
was introduced in Tasmania about forty
years ago, and mohair first appeared as
an export ten years later, the quantity
shipped being 1896 pounds. In 1878
the clip reached 1857, 900 pounds, val
ued at $500, 900, while in 1857, z, ,154,
900 pounds of hair were exported, val
ued at over 81 900, 600 (the price of hair
having been much reduced by this time),
besides skins to the value of 100000.

A Horse Dentist.

At the quarters of the Salvage Corps
the other day DIR. Welles, a veterinary
dentist, paid his annual visit. One by
one the horses were brought out into the
yard in the rear of the house and backed
up against the fence. The doctor seized
the first horse by the nose, got hold of
the ANIMALS tongue and pulled it out as
far as possible. He then examined the
teeth with his fingers and ascertained
what was to be done. He took from his
grip stick about foot long, to which
he attached a moose, which ne twisted
around the horses nose, forcing him to
open his mouth. Then the dentist took
long nickeled tubular instrument, to
one end of which was attached chisel,
around which was guard which rested
on the horses lower teeth. A rod was
showed through the tube, causing the
chisel to chip pieces off the teeth, thus
making them one height. A long file
was then brought to play and the teeth
sharpened. All the horses were examined
and treated in this way. From the
mouth of each two small back teeth were
pulled. These are termed "wolf" teeth.
They often cause considerable trouble to
horse, the pain from them at times
being so intense as to make the animal
unmanageable. Only one of the horses
gave anJ trouble, and the dentist finished
his work on the four in less than an hour
and received SIS for his work.-ReDark

pefOrmItr the MOther Of Fashions.

Disraeli declares that the origin of
many fashions is to be found in the en-
deavor of the devotee TO conceal some
deformity of nature by recourse to art.
"Patches were invented in England, he
says, "by foreign lady, who by this
means ingeniously covered wen on her
neck. Wigs were invented by French
barber to conceal an elevation in the
shoulder of the Dauphin. Charles VII,
of France, introduced the long-tailed
coat TO hide his ill-made legs. Shoes
two feet in length were invented to con-
ceal large excreseence on the foot Of
the Duke Of AnjoE. When Francis /.

Professor Rein, a scientist who has
been investigating the material resources
of Japan, says: They reveal national
frugality and economy of marvellous
type. The area of Japan is less than
that of California. Its cultivated land is
less than one-tenth of its total acreage,
yet its products support about S,O00,- :
600 people. In Japan 1850 persons
subsist from each square mile of titled
land" If the land were divided up
among the people single-taxer wouldn't
have room enough on his own plot to

Sweden is not an overcrowded coun-
try. On the contrary, it is more
thinly settled than some of our States.
Combined with Norway it is the largest
country in Europe, except Russia. There
isplenty of room for the people; but they
do not care to stay there. They prefer
to emigrate to our Northwest, with a soil
and resources inferior to some portions,
at least, of their native kingdom. The
New York Press exclaims: 1t is an ex-
traordinary spectacle-this Swedish emil
gration-far different in motive and
character from any other that seeks our
shores.

The San Francisco Chronicle remarks;
The man who has secured a lease of
islands in the Great Salt Lake and an
appropriation of $50, 900 to cross the
buffalo to common cattle has worked a
very neat little game. The preservation
of the buffalo is worthy object, but it
it is rather late to begin now, when the
animal is practically extinct. As for
crossing the buffalo with domestic cattle,
this scheme can only be in the interest of
the boarding-house keeper who wishes
to improve upon the toughness of the
long-horned Western steer and thus
secure an indestructible steak.

Mrs. Ada M. Bittenbender, lawyer at
Washington for the w. C. T. L., has
been investigating the subject of early
legislation on the liquor traffic in the
colonies and United States of America.
She finds that two kinds of liquor legis.
lation kept pace with each other through
out colonial life, namely, laws to punish
drunkenness and those to promote the
domestic manufacture of intoxicating
drinks. Some curious penalties for
drunkenness are mentioned The offender
was sometimes required to wear on his
outside garment the letter "D' or the
word "drunkard Occasionally one
was disfranchised. Reprimands, whip
pings and fines, however, were the ordi-
nary modes of punishment. At the same
time laws were enacted making the plant.
ing of grape vines compulsory, to en-
courage the wine industry, while especial
efforts were put forth to increase the pro
duction Of malt and distilled liquors.
The first law authorizing a liquor saloon,
pure and simple, was passed in 1888,
