HE WON'T WORK.

Secretary NOBLE is out in the newspa-
pers with the declaration that he would
compel the Sioux to work for living, the
same ''as white people are doing" He
thinks the policy of supporting them in
idleness has proven a miserable failure and
now the opposite course should be pur-
sued. The secretary, in this statement,
proves very conclusively that he knows
little about Indians and their peculiarities
and characteristics. If be knew more he
wouldn't talk about making the Sioux earn
their living by work until he had first
learned whether or not it was possible to
change their natures. We don't believe
there is influence, power or force enough in
the republic to compel the Sioux to get
down to hard labor. He isn't built that way
To him work is not only Jiresome, but is
disgraceful and degrading. He looks upon
the Indian who tolls as miserable, de-
generate creature, an outcast and rene
gade who disgraces his birth aud training
The tramp in civilization is quite as re-
spectacle as the Sioux laborer would be
among his own people. This, of course, re-
fers to the males, the squaws being born to
labor and taking to it as kindly as kittens
do to milk.
How would the secretary 60 about it to
induce the bucks to work. Would he with
hold their rations! That wouldn't be eff
fectye, for starvation would be preferable
to toll. If the Sioux couldn't escape from
the reservation and catch his own living
hunting or stealing, he would sulk in his
tent until the promptings OF humanity
would compel the secretary to give him
food. Task-masters would not be effective,
Tor they wouldn't be obeyed as long as the
Indian had strength to resist and when he
hadn't this he couldn't work.
Some of the Indians can be taught the
utility and the necessity of work, but we
doubt that the Sioux are among them. A
good many Utes are laborers, earning
money and acquiring property. Some of
the Bannocks and Shoshones also work.
and few of the Arizona Indians labor:
but the Sioux prides himself on being the
noble redman," the ''son of the forest,n
and when you induce him to labor it will
be after you have changed his nature and
inspired him with another kind of ambition
than that which now actuates him.

The King of Belgium has not succeeded
in making his Congo investments pay very
weli-so badly indeed that they have well
nigh swallowed up his own fortune, if not
also the vast property that he holds in trust
for his sister, the eX-Empress Charlotte of
Mexico.
The engagement is announced of the eld-
est daughter of Hon. Robert T. Lincoln.
United States minister to England, and
Mr.. Charles Isham of New York. who was
formerly Mr.. Lincoln's private secretary.
The wedding will take place in London
some time during the coming autumn.
Rev. X. j. Nevins, rector of St. Paurs
Episcopal church, Rome, Italy, who arrived
at New York recently, says that the Italian
authorities now acknowledge that in re-
calling Minister Fava they acted precipi-
lately. They received a garbled account
of the New Orleans affair, and acted with
ont sufficient information. Rudini has
been trying to explain away Faya's recall
ever since.
The present Shah of Persia has been one
OF the most progressive monarchs that
country ever had. During his reign Tehe-
ran has changed from a dreary old town of
100000 inhabitants to a city of thrice that
population, and been beautifed with fine
promenades, elegant residences and hand
some public editices. He has introduced
banks, gas, teegraphs and street RAILWAYS
and modernized his army; and he is the
first ruler of Persia to form a regular min
lstry on the European model and to NOM
mate ambassadors to foreign courts.

sstIrical and Tender-Hearted Eugene
Field.

Eugene Field of Chicago, whose delicate
humor and verses of pathos have given
him a reputation not bounded by the CON
fines of this country, is about 4j years old.
In personal appearance he is long and lank,
and the hair on his head and face is not
abundant Few men probably possess
wider extremes Of character, and in moth
ing is this shown more plainly than in his
writing and i'm his treatment Of persons.
He has made many enemies, his tempta-
ton to satirize friends as well as foes being
under little restraint while the propensity
to play pranks which marked him while a
school boy at Monson, Mass, is still strong
in his nature. The bump of veneration
was evidently left out when he was made,
and the higher the responsibility of the vic
tins of his jokes and iibes, the better
seems to be the enjoyment of the perpetra-
tor. But underlying this exterior is a ten
derness for children which is touching. Mr..
Field lives quietly with his family, and his
home is filled with books, many of them
strange old tones, which none but a real
book lover could crave.-Hdrper's Week

Good Housekeeping for August recog-
nizes the vacation season, not by suspend
ing publication, or devoting its pages large
ly to the details of sports and outings; but.
with just recognition of the necessities of
outdoor festivities and recreation, aims to
make the indoor life as free from tax as
possible for the many housewives who
scarcely know what vacation means, save
as it brings to them an added care and
heavier labor. This model magazine, reg
ularly received and carefully read in any
household, will do more than can be esti-
mated to aid the mistress of the home. and
to tighten her burdens, by bringing to her
assistance the wisdom of others in all parts
of the country. Its publishers, Clark W.
Bryan d Co., Springfield Mass, have never
made it more interesting and valuable than
now.

open to the guests. The house was mod

much to arouse his curiosity. and was on
the alert for new discoveries. \ celebrated
singer had Just taken her place at the pi-
ano. when this young man, who was stand
ing in the lower hall near the parlor door.
caught sight of something that looked
like a black rubber button in the centre of
a small marble disk What could that be
for?
He was so anxious to know that he
could not listen to the singer. The crowd
was great, and he felt sure he could exam
inc the curiosity without being noticed.
He passed his hands over it slyly, touched
the rubber or metal button with his fingers.

parlors and hall were in total darkness.
The song of the soprano ended in little
shrek, and the air was full of eXclama-

Cropping his way through the crowd,
stepping on their toes, striking against
them and putting his outstretched hands
into shrinking faces, the chagrined host
finally made his way into the hall, felt
along the wall until he touched the electric
button, pressed it and the rooms were
again flooded with light.

A Tacoma, Wash, special to the New
York Tribune tells this very fishy story:
The bark Guy c. GOss, with a cargo of
100000 worth of tea, dropped anchor here
to-day July 2j), forty-four days from Yo-
kohama, long overdue. When fifteen days
out, "Tom'' Hiskiaski, japanese sailor,
mounted to the topsail to reef it during a
gale. \ lurch of the vessel threw him
headlong into the sea, and he was seen sud-
denly to disappear. The lifeboat was put
out, but no trace of the missing sailor was
found. When returning to the vessel. a
whale rose to the surface. The crew then
suspected what had become of Hiskiaski.
The whale seemed to be in great distress.
Suddenly, after violent convulsion. His
kiasH was thrown from the whales mouth
on to the crest Of a wave and upon the deck
of the Goss. He was unconscious and bad
ly injured. Careful nursing brought him
around and he is now in his normal health.
Captain Mallette vouches for the truth OF
this story, and the sailor was pointed out.

The August Atlantic.

The Atlantic monthly for August has
two notable features besides the serial
stories by Mrs. Catherwood and Mr.. Stock
ton. Henry James contributes an admir-
able short story entitled The marriages"
which will delight his army of admirers;
and Mr.. John c. Ropes, who is peculiarly
strong in writing on military subjects, has
an excellent paper on General Sherman
awarding him great but not undiscriminat-
ing praise. Edith NJ. Thomas writes ex-
quisite Notes from the wild garden, f"
sprinkling some beautiful little poems on
special flowers among prose descriptions
and reflections hardly less poetical: Olive
Thorne Miller in 1.-TWO little drummers"
treats in her usual fresh style the yellow
bellied woodpecker sometimes called the
sap-sucker) and the red-headed woodpeck-
er; Miss Harriet Watere Preston and Miss
Louise Dodge, who, over their initials,
have before this printed many delightful
papers in the Atlantic, now, under the
title of "A disputed correspondence"
discuss wisely and delightfully."- the letters
which are said to have passed between
Seneca and the Apostle Paul. There are
other papers of general value and interest,
beside its usual editorial departments.

A wild Tale Of Human Emotions from

trees that lined the quiet street. The
