The statement that a California Indian
died the other day at the age of $50 years
has caused correspondent of the Philadel-
phia Press to say that there is in Chill an
Indian who is 1913 years old. His name is
Happole, and old native Indians say that
their grandfathers have spoken OF him as
beng an old man in their youth. The cor.
respondent has seen him, and says he is pre-
pared to defend these statements if neces-
sary. 1t certainly is necessary.

It is to be observed that Col. Marcus
Johns IN of Milledgeville is still for Gen.
Evans for governor. He says that accord

suggested. At the same time he wishes it
known that he IS no candidate-maker. If

The Montana senatorial contest will be
considered IN the Senate to-day, and repub-

At a Masquerade.

1t was in a town not q thousand miles from
Boston that there were recently given couple
of masqued parties at private houses, says the
Boston Courier. At the second of these the
hostess of the first party found herself talking
very amiably with a mask in whom she sup
posed herself to recognize a gentleman who
had come to the town just after her own enter
tainment. Simply for the sake of making con
versation, and of throwing the gentleman of
the scent of her own Identity she asked
Were you at Mrs. Blank s maSaued party?'
mo" he answered, Il was not honored with
an invitation"
Were you here at the timer" she asked.
YES he answered, "out Mrs. Blank does
like me-"
CONSERVATION seized upon Mrs. Blank, but
she instantly determined not 20 betray herself
Doesn't she!" she returned careeSSy.
Probably that is one of the things which you
imagine. Some people are always surprising
that others do not like Them you know
Her companion seemed a trife annoyed
Il am not one of that sort, - he retorted
rather brusquely Besides. she has minated
to me that She did not like me.
rs i. fair to ask how?" Mrs Blank asked
entirely my titled in regard to the identity of
her interlocutor.
why / should not mind telling YOU if I
we're sure that you wouldn't repeat ii"
20, never betray confidence the lady
said, eagerly.
The gentleman leaned over until his face
under its mask was near to hers.
81 asked her to marry me-"
Mrs Blank was more startled than ever. The
train of her old suitors, and in her day she had
had not a few, came up before her mental vision
and she wondered which one of them chance
had brou yht to her side tonight, but in vain.
But" she said slowly, because a lady re-
fused you it need not follow that she dlsliked
you. l am sure woman is not to be supposed
to dislike every man she does not wish to ma ~
That would be q most absurd assumption
ITO be sure it would" he assented cheer
fully; but in this particular case she did not
refuse me.
Did not refuse you!'' echoed Mrs Blank in
astonishment "She certainly did not accept
you?"
That is precisely what sac did do"
''It is not" Mrs. Blank began; and then con-
sidering that if she said true it would be
showing more knowledge of Mrs Blanks af-
fairs than was compatible with pretending to
be another person. she changed her sentence
and said-"creditable that she should accept
you and then marry another man"
'She didn't. Kate, her husband said in his
own voice, ''she married me-"
Tom she cried.
Yes, my dear" Tom answered. "you told
me at our party t5at couldn't fool you"
You are a wretch and a monster" SIZE de-
clared, ''and VII never forgive you"
But she did, and told the joke at her own ex-
pense before the evening was over

The american Banker says that the cap
ital of northern money centers is pouring
into the south, and that in consequence,
moro new banks are springing up in the
southern than in the northern states. "And
yet" continues the Banker, there is no
danger of overcrowding. The southern
states constitute a vast empire, where colos-
sal industrial undertakings are on foot, and
whose accomplish nent calls into action
vast amounts of idle capital that have
hitherto been content to draw 2, 3, or 4
per cent. interest, and which are destined to
soon produce much more satisfactory divi-
dends. Nor are these great industrial en-
terprises the only ones that want more
money and cheaper money. There is no
department of business in the south to-day
that does not stand in need of it, More
banks are needed in every southern state to
assist in that development that has thus far
been gratifying as it is astonishing"
