An Indian Challenge.

Two tribes Of Indians in the upper
part of California had as boundary be-
tween their districts low ridge where
the streams headed. Ifyou should go to
where one of these streams, Potter river,
rises you would see still standing tall
pile of stones beside a never failing
spring. On one side Of this cairn was the
territory of the Pomo Indians, and on the
other the land Of the Chumaia These
tribes were enemies, and were often at
war When the Chumaia wished to
challenge the others to battle they took
three little sticks, cut notches round
their ends and in the middle, tied them
at the ends into faggot and laid it on
this cairn. Ii the Pomos accepted the
challenge they tied a string around the
middle Of the three sticks and left them
in their place. Then agents Of both
tribes met on neutral ground and ar
ranged the time and place Of battle,
which took place accordingly.-St. Mich

psrles to Avoid ocean celllslen..

In order to do away with the enor-
nous pressure Of the water against the
front Of ocean steampships an English
inventor has introduced novel device,
which he claims viii enable faster time
to be made by vessels, in addition to fa-
cilitating the maneuvering of ships, and
tend to avoid collisions. The invention
consists of one or more screws on each
side of the bow, each As degs. with the
bow and 80 degs. from each other. Ex-
periments with these screws show that
the water is thrown from each side Of
the bow. forming deep well in front Of
the vessel, and allowing the stern screws
to effect their full power in propulsion.

Capt Lanes quarters, as has been
said, were charmingly furnished, and
adorned with attractive pictures and
brio a-brac. The dining room was
small, as dining rooms generally are in
army garrisons, but by dint of moving
out the stove, which until now had cum
bered one corner, and then crowding the
sideboard into its place, sufficient room
had been gained to admit of extending
the table diagonally and seating four
teen people thereat, and now, with the
curtains drawn, but the soft evening
breeze playing through the open case
ment and the broad hallway, in the soft,
yet brilliant light of dozens of wax
candles set in sconces on the walls or in
heavy candelabra on the damask covered
board, a merry party had gathered for
one of the sslovely dinners" for which
Mrs. Lane was already famous.

Irrigation in India.

Babylon the great was child of irri- gation. At the dawn of history irriga- ton was common in India and Egypt. Some of the ancient irrigation plants were enormous in extent. Those of modern India are so vast that anything in this country is insignificant in com. parison. Ths Ganges canal, for instance. is 900 miles in length including branches. In its largest or upper part it carries TOO cubic feet of water per second. It is ITO feet wide by 10 feet deep and is capable of irrigating 1,500, 900 acres. At the ex- tremely low price of labor in India it cost sl2 100000. The same amount of work in this country would cost Sl00, ,000,- 900. And after all it is nearly useless on account of adding more alkali to that already in the soil. Alkali is the one great drawback to surface irriea- ftpp

Young's collection there are some rare
and valuable specimens. The pestles are
found in almost every conceivable shape,
and in a great many varieties of stone,
but the best and most used are made from
granite. One of the most perfect which
has been found was dug out of a mound
in Bourbon County. 1t has a flat base,
twelve inches around and four inches
across. The handle is ten inches long,
and at the point where the hand grasps
it it is six inches round, tapering to a
sharp point. One of the most ingeni-
ously shaped mortars was found in a
stream in Western Kentucky. 1t is
made of granite. 1t is ten inches long
and seven inches wide, and the depression
in which the corr was ground is two
inches deep. The sides are carved 80
that it could be held between the knees
securely. Some of them are found made
of thin stone, with cavities on both sides.
These were supposed to have been used
for grinding two kinds of peppers, roots
or seeds, when they did not want to get
the lavors mixed.
1t is estimated that IN energetic
Indian, or mound builder, could make
from four to five axes or spear-heads, in
a year, it requiring a much longer time
to shape q pestle or a pipe. A pipe ha'
been found of such wonderful workman.

Pet Turtle.

In the town of Patten, Me-, q place
distant from Underwater over ninety
miles, there isa great curiosity, known
as the "turtle's nest" For ffty-two
years a turtle has come annually to the
nest to deposit her eggs. Over half
a century ago she selected her nest. taen
in an open field, but now in a yard IN!
front of a residence. A relative Of the
owner Of the house branded tho date,
1s41, upon the turtles back and it can
be plainly traced now. She comes
about the same date each year, and her first
few days are passed 10 inspecting the
ancient nest, the yard and surroundings
Later she digs a hole in the ground and
there deposits her eggs, but as many
were carried away and the others often!
disturbed, only about a dozen OF
the eggs Matched out. The owner OF
the house has ten of the little turtles,
none more than twice the size OF q pos
tsge stamp. The old turtle always
departs after laying the eggs, the warm
sand and sun serving as an incubator
This turtle has been seen at the Drew
Deadwater, on the Matawamkeag River,
fully fifty miles away from the nest.
Her weight varies from thirty to thirty,
five pounds, aud it is said she was large
when branded as she is now. Each
June she comes to Patten aud is always
welcomed by old and young.-&. Lou's
