ENGLISH ON INDIAN SCARE.
Our Transatlantic Cousins Feel Puzzled
and Wax Facetious.

Our Transatlantic Cousins Feel Puzzled
and Wax Facetious.
The Saturday Review.l
The so-called Indian scare is one Of those
things which no fellow can be expected to
understand on this side of the Atlantic
Who is scared and why? The great Yankee
nation cannot surely be scared by few
thousand Sioux in Dakota; and if the
Sioux are scared, one cannot help suspect
ing it is because the agents of the great
Yankee nation have been doing something
they should not.
The items of information are difficult to
pick out from among reports of what the
Free Silver Democrats intend and what the
Farmers Alliance. When you do get them
they hardly prove more than that somebody
is lying like Zinzibari valet At the top
of the column we see told that seven settlers
have been scalped and that a battle is
raging. AT the bottom it is confidently an
nounced that this is fiction, and that all is
quiet on Pine Ridge. We dare say it is; but
then, if nobody has been scalpei, the fuss
would seem to be about nothing.
Then the appearance of our old and re-
spected friend, Buffalo Bill, as an active
parsonage on the scene is confusing. We
like Buffalo Bill. We never liked him the
less because his temporary popularity with
duchessps was so maddening to respectable
Americans" 1t was justified by the excel
lence of his manners. Then, too, he wore
his long hair and picturesque costume with
cranerie, and rode like an angel. Still one
does associate him with travelling cir
Gus, and though General Sheridan certifes
him brave fellow, and good frontier guide.
his temperance on the way to the sceLe of
action harmonizes pleasingly with the air of
unreality cast over the whole thing by news
paper lies.
1t fills up the picture to learn that Red
Shirt sis with him." Red Shirt. if our
memory does not fail us for the first time,
was with him when we last saw him at
West Kensington. We respect Red Shirt.
He refused even to be enticed by Mr.. Glad
stone into giving his opinion on home rule.
He is Iong-headed red man, and his can
did topinlon on the Indian scare would be
worth having. .- ~

1Np1AN GUIDES FOR GUESTS.

They Repaid The Summers Sportsman by
Fraternal Visitation.
Queer things happen the world over says
the New York Sun. A well-known lawyer
of Hartford went every year down to Nova
Scotia to fish, and always had the same In
dian guides. He liked them-as guides;
they liked him, too. One day his Office boy
appeared in his private Office in great ex-
citement. Indians p' he exclaimed; and
Indians it was, seven of them, the lawyers
Micmac friends.
They had come to spend the summer with
him, they announced cheerfully. Luckily
he lived Just out of the city, and had a fair
sized place; so, as he couldn't send them
away, he took them out to his home. There
he had them pitch their tents in the re-
motest field, near little brook, and there
they spent the summer. They fshed and
caught little. Three times a day they came
up TO the house for what they called "les
restes de la maison," and countless other
times day they came up to see the family.
The lawyers place became famous. John
and Biddy walked out in the summer even
ings to see the 'rale Injuns," and so did
Hans and Gretchen, and Silas and Huldah.
At the end of the summer the Indians
went home, telling their relieved host that
they had enjoyed their visit very much, and
would come again the next summer. But
they didn't. Forewarned was iorearmed,
and the lawyer kept them away. Perhaps
he enioined them

THE BEAVER ANGLER.

THE WILD TURKEY.
Dick Quay and Faithful Ben Sooy freed
by Wounded Buck.
AN EXCITING FIGHT WITH A TARPOs

Senator Quay sat in his library at his resi-
dencc enjoying his post-prandial cigar, says
Washington correspondent of the Phila-
delphia Times, and willingly opened the
subject of fishing in Florida. He said: ST
reached st. Luce in the very nick of time
for tarpon fishing. Dick and Ben Sooy be-
grudged the time it takes to bait and hook
the big silver king and went of in the
country, where they camped out for two
weeks, often sleeping in the woods in No
vember without sheets when miles away
from camp. Florida is the most wonderful
country in America for game, and as an
evidence of the abundance of deer. from the
hummocks within mile of where Ben Sooy
and he had their camp, they killed six deer
in the last two weeks OF November.
''To genuine lover of the Joys of the
woods, no sport is more fascinating than
hunting the wild turkey. Two negroes who
are skilled in calling the gobbler built
blind out of pine tags, scattered brush over
the tags and taking care to build the blind

this avariest OF game birds, if not hunted too
much, will return for years to the same spot
to roost, generally In the deep woods, and
often on the loftiest hemlocks at the edge of
some big swamp.
HOW TO KILL TURKEYS.
'The keenest hunter brings out his call
made from turkey wing, and soon he will
have big gobbler strutting through the
woods, with his 'put-put-put,' his beard

hold, who makes marriage failure all her
life. She has had her way in things great
and small; and when she desired dresses,
pleasures or journeys which were beyond
the family purse, she carried the days with
tears or sulks, or posing as a martyr. The
parents sacrificed and suffered for her sake,
hoping finally to see her we'll married. They
carefully hide her faults from her suitors
who seek her hand, and she is ever ready
ith smiles and allurements to win the
hearts of men, and the average man is as
blind to the faults of pretty girl as a newly
hatched bird is blind to the worms upon the
trees about him. He thinks her little
pettish ways are mere girlish moods; but
when she becomes his wife and reveals her
selfish and cruel nature he is grieved and
hurt to think fate has been so unkind to

A DAZZLING SUCCESS.
The Operation of the Women's Lunch
Counter in New York.

The Operation of the Women's Lunch
Counter in New York.
The woman's lunch counter in New York
City is dazzling success, and is patronized
as extensively as any of the mems places
down town, says the Sun. The women took
to it from the day it was started, and now
no young woman, with days shopping. or
a list OF callers on hand, would think of
wasting time at a restaurant table. Last
Saturday noon reporter followed crowd
of women into well-known restaurant in
upper Broadway. All turned to one side
OF the room, where there was an oval lunch
counter of cherry, smoothly polished
and much lower than the lunch counters
patronized by men exclusively. The stools
were of cherry with cane-bottom seats. Sixty
persons could sit very comfortably at the
counter, but the managers of the institution
had crowded the seats together so as to ac-
commodate more. The service was much
better than men are accustomed to. At the
time of the reporters entrance the seats were
nearly all taken. Behind the counter were
four milj-mannered walters in white jackets
and aprons. Ali sorts of feminine gossip
could be heard, and. of course, that settles
it, Stools for ladies' lunch counters are a
success.
