nurenle,s valor IN oholora rlme..

The cholera scare that has afflicted
Europe to degree has recalled an in
cident of the time when Napoleon III.
was at the height of his power. The
cholera prevailed to frightful extens
at Amiens, yet never day passed that
the Empress did not visit the hospitals
to superintend, so far as she could, the
noble work af allaying tho sufferings Of
the stricken. One morning cure
rushed into the ward where the EN-
press was consoling dying man. "Oh,
your Majesty" cried the cure, "two
hours ago my vicar wns breakfasting
with me, and now no is dendl"
Eugene smiled pIacidly, @That is
WE'LL"
4wella" echoed tt, cure, in amaze
ment.
Eyes, it is WE'LL" abe answered.
when once cholera becomes as violent
as that it ceases"
The Empress was right; from that
day the plague abated. Eugenie's
valor did much to fortify the people
against tie epidemic to which very
many, 1 nm told, fell victims through
sheer fright alone. Chicago Ne,us.

An Indian nall.plarsr,s Traininx

AS described by Mr.. james Mooney,
the training of the Cherokee ball-players
includes course of precautionary meas
ures. "They batho their limbs with a
decoction of Tcphrosia Yirginiana, or
catgut, in order to render their muscles
tough like the roots of that plant. They
battle themselves with decoction of the
small rush, which grows by tho roadside,
because its stalks are always erect and
will not lie fat upon the ground, how
ever much they may be stamped and
trodden upon. In the same way they
battle with n decoction OF the wild crab.
apple, or tho iron-wood, because the
trunks of these trees, even when thrown
down, are supported and kept from the
ground by their spreading tops. To
make themselves more supple, they whip
themselves with the tough stalks of the
wataku, or star-grass, or with switches
made from the bark of q hickory snpling
which has grown up from q log that has
fullen across 7i., Ar- bark heipg taken
from the bend thus produced IL tic Sap
ling. After tue first scratching the play
or renders himself an object Of terror to
his opponent by eating rattlcsnake
which has been killed and cooked by
the shaman. He rubs himself with an
eel-skin to make himself slippery like the
eel, and rubs each limb down once with
the fore and hind leg of a turtle, because
the legs OF that animal arc remarkably
stout. He applies to the shaman to con
jure dangerous opponent SO that he
may be unable to see the ball in its
flight, or may dislocatc wrist or break
leg. Sometimes the shamnn draws
upon the ground an armless figure of his
rival with hole where the heart should
be. Into this hole he drops two black
beads, covers them with earth, and
stamps upon them, and thus the dreaded
RIVAL is doomed, unless (and this is al
ways the saving cause his own shaman
has taken precaution against such re-
suit, or the one in whose behalf the
charm is made had rendered the ncanta-
ton unavailing by a violation of some
one of the interminnble rules Of the gak-
tunta. ~ Popular Science Monthly.

The Damn of Amsterdam

Amsterdam, Holland, the Venice OF
the North, is city of 1000 people,
and is built on ninety islands, being
honeycombed by canals and grea.
''grachts." Every house rests upon Il
foundation of piles, and the royal palace
is firm on 13, $50 of them, as we were as
sured by the guide.
The city, says Thackeray, "is as good
as Venice, with superadded humor and
grotesqueness which gives the sightseer
the most singular zest and pleasure. A
run through Pekin one could hardly
fancy to be more odd, strange and yet
familiar. This rush and crowd and pro-
digious vitality; this immense swarm of
of life; these busy waters, crowding
barges, swinging drawbridgcs, piled an
cicnt gables, spacious markets tccming
With people; that ever wonderful He
rev quarter; that dear old world of
painting aud the past, yet alive and
throbbing and palpablc, actual and yet
passing before you swiftly and strangely
as dream ]"
The heart of tho city is the Dam,
which an old worthy several hundred
years ago constructed across the river
Amste. he also built castle on this
embankment. It is now plaza, some
what smaller than Union square, and on
it front the royal palace, tho. exchange
and other buildings. Walking by the ex-i
change was astonishcd ut the boys with
drums running in and ont, and the
frightful uproar we heard cad the excite
ment we saw inside. 1t was as though MI
the boys were at once celebrating the
Fourth of July and making up with
their drums and lungs what they lacked
in the shape of powder. We could not
understand it. until later we were told of
the reason. 1t was drumming Week."
