Cut Off From the World.

DIR. II. Darlington Bolton, in one of
his recent lectures, told of visiting the
little island Of Niihau, one of the small
est of the Hawaiian group, and of the
pleasant days he spent there as the guest
Of the only white family on the island.
This is the family of Mr.. George S. Gay,
and the entire island has been owned by
this family for twenty-five years past.
The family includes Mr.. and Mrs. Cav,
and three or four children, and except
for an OCCASIONAL guest, they seldom see
any white people. The island is a great
sheep ranch, embracing about 10000
acres, and with a native population of
less than 100, all that remains of nearly
1000 natives who IN 1882 inhabited the
island Even in this favored spot, where
Mr.. Gay las done everything in his
power TO preserve the natives from the
evils attendant upon civilization, they are
rapidly dying out, just as in all parts of
the little kingdom the native race is
%dwindling away, and will before many
generations probably disappear entirely.
Mr.. Gay and his family are very well-to-
do people, and they seem to be very
happy IN their quiet, isolated home. Mr..
Gay is Governor Of the little island. at
tends to the welfare of all his people.
and a sort of patriarchal life exists there.
The white family receives tribute from
the natives, who give them at stated
times q certain amount OF labor and such
supplies Of fish. cocoanuts and sweet
potatoes. OF course, the children have
no white comrades to play with, but they
seem to be just as happy as children any
where are. They make playmates of va
rlous animals, which they tame and care
Tor, and beside, they have their ponies
and a number of dogs, which afford
Them a great deal of entertainments

A Creek Execution.

When a citizen OF the Creek Nation
is condemned to death he IS released on
parole until the fatal day arrived, when
he invariably shows up without any sort
of restraint or duress having been en-
ployed. The Sheriff shoots the culprit
through the heart With a rife. The re-
demption of his parole of honor has
been a distinguishing characteristic of
the Creek Indian for agA, and the most
r~ed-handed criminals among them, from
a superstitious belief that to flee would
be useless, rush to the executioner as a
bridegroom rushes to his bride, once the
law says he is worthy of death, but not
worthy Of bonds. The Creeks, being a
civilized tribe, with ~cellent schools,
courts, Judges and criminal and civil
codes, perhaps the Caucasian virtue oil
Inconsistency has invaded the Territory,
and Sherifs have learned 10 lock up
their prisoners.

You get it for SO cents, from

W~ashingten's Remedy Tor a Sore Throat


George Washington, while attending
a swell reception at Newport, noticed
that the daughter of his host Miss Ellerv,
was suffering from a severe sore throat
and could not speak above a whisper.
General Washington, observing this en-
barrassment of his youthful, hostess, said
to her:
Miss Ellery, you seem to be suffering
very much; what is the matter?n
Miss Ellery told him the cause sof her
trouble, upon which the General .said to
her:
81 suffer myself very frequently from
sore throat and take a remedy which I
find very useful, and which I would rec
ommend to you were I not sure YOU
would not take it."
"But | am sure" replieds Miss Ellery,
'that l would take any remedyIthat
General Washington would propose"
"Well, them" said the General, ""it is
this-onions boiled in molasses. 1T has
cured me often"
Miss Ellery took the remedy.and, of
course, was cured.-Nev York World.

Nhermai's kcmarkab!e Dream.
 Writers who have busted themselves picking up anecdotes and incidents of the life of sherman appear to have wholly overlooked the story of his re- markable dream. It is as follows: One night the general took refuge in an old farmhouse and had fallen into a deep sleep when he was visited by a most eX- citing dream. He fancicd that the house in which he slept was surrounded by a band of guerrillas, who had dug a hole beneath the room in which he lay, hiIed it with powder and touched it off The explosion that followed was ter rble, and the general thought he saw himself flying through the air in sec uons The shock of this terrible eX- Pcrience caused him to leap to tle middle of the floor. Hastily dressing, he left the building. He had not gone lar into the night when red glare shot up from the farmhouse, followed by a terrible explosion. The building was wrecked, but the dream had saved the He of the great general.

Stopped His Paper.

Nowadays, when a subscriber gets
SO mad because an editor differs with
him on some trivial question that he
discontinues his subscription and
''stops his paper" we remind him of
a good anecdote of the late Horace
Greedy, the well-known editor of the
New York Tribune. Passing down
Newspaper Row New York City, one
morning, he met one OF his readers,
who exclaimed: Mr.. Greedy, after
the article you published this morn
ing, | intend to stop your paper.
"Oh, no" said Mr.. Greedy; don't do
that" Yes, sir, my mind is made
up, and l shall stop the paper But
the angry subscriber was not to be
appeased and they separated. Late
in the afternoon, the two met again,
when Mr.. Greedy remarked: Mr..
Thompson, am very glad you did
not carry out your threat this morn
ing What do you mean?' why
YOU said you were going to stop my
paper And so | did; | went to
the office and had your paper stop
ped" you are surely mistaken; L
have Just come from there, and The
press is running and business boom

pompously, Il meant | intended to
stop my subscription to your paper. "
"Oh, thunder!" rejoined Greenly,
Thought your were going to stop
the running of my paper and knock
Inc out of business. My friend, let
me tell you something. One man is
just a drop of water in the ocean.
You didn't set the machinery of this
world in motion and you can't stop
it; and when YOU are underneath the
ground, things up in the surface will
wag on just the saue as ever. '-Er.

that to keep ice warm is the way to
keep it cold. \ piece of ice in pitch
er. with a pail over the pitcher and
rug over the pail, will keep all night
A piece of ice in a refrigerator, Gov
cred with a snug white blanket will
cheat the greedy ice man every day,
and snap fancy fingers at the milk
that does not dare to get sour, or the
beefsteak that dares not fail. These
things are admirable in their way and
should be in every hat band. But the
greatest trick Of all is newspapers.
With plenty of newspapers above. be

of ice will keep is joke.
