No race has ever risen higher, none de-
seended lower than the Arabs. In ciyiljZa-
ton they have not been surpassed. They
have founded one of the most powerful re-
ligiOns in the world, created one of the great
eSt eGpiTes known to history and now the
empire lives only in history, but the re-
lgion becomes more powerful and the
shadow of the Prophet Teigns as sovereign
over millions Of believers.
The Bedouins live in small tribes under
the patriarchal authority of a sheik. The
installation of these Bohemians of the des-
ert presents a biblical aspect as in the
time OF Abraham. The tent is the home Of
the Bedoun, space his domain and the
desert his country. The tents are made of
long lances and guns, and covered with
pieces Of stuff. The furniture consists of
an iron tray for cooking bread, leather
sack for water and a few necessary i'm
plrments. The Bedouin loves best his
morse, and this animal is the most beautiful
in all the world. The BedOuin women
would be very go cd looking were rot their
fOreheads and chins covered with a singular
blue tattoo, and their fingers painted a
bright red. The children ara pretty and
very numerous. The women prefer the in
dependent adventurous life 10 all other.

battle. When two tribes come to close con-
hict, the women lead forth young maiden,
mounted on a camel and from the two
camps the warriors fight around this living
palladium. The Egyptian fellahs are
brown skinned, their fOreheads are broad,
noses straight, lips thick and eyes black.

Some OF them are very handsome, and the
women are covered with diadems and col
lars, bracelets and seQuins. The entire
fortune Of the family is lavished on orna-
ments for the women. Their homes are
huts, and their food cakes made of dourrah.
On great occasions thsy eat onions, beans
and dates
The fellahs are truthful and as hospltable
as their poverty allows them to be. They
are the husbandmen Of Egypt, and their
animals are the ass and buffalo. For cent
uries has the buffalo been beast of burden
Tor the fellahs; child can care for a
buffalo, and woman conquers 1t without
difficulty. The ass is praised bv the Koran,
and in Egypt the ass is agile and patient.
1he Swahl!ls are negroes from Zanzibar,

An Apology for Presenting Only Half Sheet
of the Paper-Working Up Nomination
for Mayor-A Bad Error.

We must beg the indulgence of our read
ers for coming out on a half-sheet this week,
but the matter was positively beyond our
control. Had we been drunk, the same as
our contemporary often is, we should not
blame our subscribers for kicking, but we
can assure them that no charge of the kind
can be laid at our door,

of Abe Carter. over OH the hill. We didn't
want TO 60, but Abe made it a personal mat
ter declaring that he wouldn't hang unless
we were present to kick the barrel away.
He died happy.
On Tuesday Jim Cummins sent us word
that he would shoot us on sight. Jim is a
bad man, sbut he wont lie. We knew he
meant business, and we had plan to get
the drop on him. With our usual enterprise
and public spirit we got it. Some of the
crowd wanted US to finish him, but as he
promised to go hence and stay there we let
him off.
On Wednesday our esteemed contem-
porary went out to our private graveyard
and attempted to jump our claim and have
something to point to when asked what he
had ever done for this community. We
drove him off, but 1t consumed valuable
time just the same.

A Trna Insect.Ynice.

Several other species of insects have ap-
paratus for producing sounds similar to that
of the GrasshoppeT, or modification OF it. OF
q different type is that with which tue
cicadas are endowed-the only creatures Of
this class which have vocal apparatus analo-
gous to those of the higher animals. Only
the males of this family are singers, for
which the Greek poets called them happy,
because their females were dumb With
the ancients, a cicada sitting on a harp was
a symbol of music. A pretty fable tells of
the contest between two c.thara players, In
which the curious event happened that
when one Of the contestants broke a string,
singing cicada sprang on his harp and
helped him out so that he gained
the rrizt. The Greeks. who shut the
insects in cages so as 20 be sung to

And through the clouds the sun will shine again.
Oh, tired heart, would not have thee grIeve;
Turn from thy and bid thy sorrows leave.
Though thou art sad, yet thou not alone.
Thou canst have pity, though thy Joys are flown.
What seekest thou in mem'ry's silent halls?
Where naught may enter save the soft footballs,
Which are but echoes from the voceless past,
Hopes that are flown and joys which could not last.
Hearest thou voice which more shalt thou

Seekest thou friend who once was to thee dear -?
Is it passion which hath ruled thy soul?
Or a dead love o'er which the long years rollf
Oh. troubled soul, turn from thy vain regret,
Cry not for rest that is not found Just yet.
Strength comes to those who silently endure,
And in endurance find thy only cure.
Hush then thy signs and give thy weeping o'er:
Search not the past, tits gone and comes no more.
Look for the sun, 1t soon will shine more bright;
Turn TO the stars which now ilume the night
