SOLOMON
Barbarians Who Are skilled In the Art OF
Wood Carving.

Ntth NafNihks
Hugo Zoller has published in the Mil
~theilungen, Of Gotha, an article ON the
little known islands, Bouka and Boug-
ainville, the most northern Of the Solo
mon group. east of New Guinea, which
he visited two years ago. The inhab-
itants Of these islands are so remark
ably hostile that 20 this day all the
islands Of the Solomon group are little
known.
The natives have kept almost wholly
free from European influences. They
live In the stone age, though a very few
of them have firearms. They wear lit
tie or no clothing, are Of the Melancsian
race, and while darker in color than the
natives Of New Guinea, their habits re-
call the Polyncsians. Their bows are
ten feet long, and they also use lances
and clubs.
They have quite a number of indus
tries, and build canocs which Mr.. Zoller
says could not be excelled by white
artisans. Their carvings upon wood
are ingenious, and they weave nets and
make pottery without the aid of the
wheel Cannibalism, which is always
observed in these regions TO n Rrcater OF
lesser extent, is becoming rare among
them. II the natives are to be believed.
Many writer's nave affirmed that these
islanders throw their dead into the
water or cremate them. but MIR. Zoller
says he repeatedly saw cemeteries in
Bougainville decorated with rude stone
monuments. This custom cannot be
attributed TO the influence of Christian
ity, for missionaries have never yet
ventured among these dangerous peo-
pie, and the natives have met only a
few European merchants, most of whom
they have slaughtered. Bouka is only
about thirty miles long and ten miles
wide, but II has n population of about
fifteen thousand. and the little islands
which are near 1t are densely peopled.-

IMPENDING WILLS.
The Part Miss Wilberforce Played
in a Reconciliation.

'I shall hold myself free to act as /
please
Il shall insist on the same privilege
for myself"
A proud and angry woman spoke and
a man as proud and angry as herself
answered her.
"You continually try TO bend my will
to yours continued Mrs. Underhill.
you do not consider that / nave as
good n right TO decide what is best for
myself as you have. II has come to
such n pass now that l am irritated be-
yond endurance, and / shall insist upon
an immediate separation"
''You desire a divorce. | shall not
oppose you. myself no longer wish
to feel the weight of matrimonial
chains"
Mr.. Undcrhills tones were cold and
bitter. II he felt any regret he studious-
1y concealed it. For moment his wife
seemed 10 weaken in her purpose. She
had not expected that her husband
would so readily consent to her leaving
him. There was a v~aeillating, melting
look in her handsome eyes, n wistful,
troubled expression in her face. There
was a critical second during which the
eyes of the two met. Had the mans
eyes then melted, there might have
been a reconciliation, and concessions
might have followed that would have
done much toward promoting the hap
piness of the couple. But the mans
face was like adamant, his gaze was
u%nyielding. Mrs. Underhill was griev-
ously disappointed and her pride was
deeply touched Her features became
rigid, and she was as devoid Of emotion
as a marble statue, as she said:
CLEARLY there is one thing concern
ing which we both can agree. A di-
vorce IL shall be. | will pack my
trunks without delay and leave for
my fathers home tonight. We can in
stitute proceedings for divorce us soon
as the requirements Of the law will per-
init. / will at once employ u lawyer, he
a communicate with you or your law
yer, and il will not be necessary for us
to write TO each other"
The dignifed but unfeeling manner
in which his wife signifed her desire
that all confidential relations with her
husband should at once cease was too
much for ever the admirable %equanim-
ity of Mr.. Underhill. An imploring
expression came into his eyes. His
wife noticed il, but would not heed II.
Had he not scorned her when she mani
Tested a disposition TO yield? He had
made her suffer, it was right that he
should suffer as much. He believed
he could detect evidences of disdain in
her countenance, and, pride coming to
his aid, his momentary weakness was
subdued.
''Good-by."
"Good-by."
Their farewells were spoken with
voices that did not tremble, and their
nerves were steady as they politely
shook hands.
Who would have looked for such a re-
suit? Mr.. and Mrs. Underhill had been
married but six months, and their
welded life had apparently begun un-
der the most happy auspices. Both
were young, strong and handsome,
possessed brilliant and attractive quail
ties that made them favorites in the
best social circles; and were members
of families that were talented, wealthy
and influential. Nature and those
worldly circumstances that are COM

GREAT GUNS.
Something About Their Manufacture and
Cost.

Something About Their Manufacture and
Cost.
The forging of the immense guns is a
most interesting process. The rined
guns Of the present are made by re-
enforcing the tube with rings and re.
peatcd layers of steel called Jackets,
which ARE fitted one over the other over
the original tube or barrel of the gun.
The jackets or hoops must fit MS closely
to the guns as II forming an integral
part of its composition. The only way
to get them u. is, of course, by heating
and thus cnlarging them. When they
cool, they fit snugly. 1t is evident that
the exact size of the jacket and ring
when heated so that it can be put in its
place must be n matter of the incest
mathematical calculation. The coarse
powder now used makes such havoc
with the rifling of the largest guns thai
one hundred charges are about all that
can be expected from them. The jaclt-
cts and rings can then be removed and
fitted 10 another tube.
The various parts of a gun are not put
together at bethlehem, but are sent 10
Washington, to u department of
the arsenal called the assembling
room, where the tube is rihed
and the gun is finally completed.
A steel gun of the largest cal
ibre costs about 500, 600. The ordnance
of our modern navy is therefore one of
the most costly items for which congress
is expected to display a patriotic gem

A woman Made an Indian.

For the first time in the history of the
North American Indians white wom-
an, Mrs Harriet Maxwell Converse, has
received the honor of national adop-
ton by an Indian nation. Instances of
"name giving have not been infrequent
among the Indians, the manning" being
accompanied with considerable cere-
mony, and usually terminating with a
feast. These ceremonies, however, are
purely complimentary, evidencing feel
ing of friendship for the person manned"
and appreciation for some act of kind
ness. But this is the first instance in In
dian annals of formal adoption of a
white woman into an Indian community,
to become an actual member of their
nation, to be fully recognized as such
and entitled to all the privileges of one
of the blood.
So the legal admission into their ma
ton of Mrs. Converse, the poet and In
dianologist, by the president and coun-
cillors of the New York state Seneca In
dians, and their recognition of her as
one of their own people, is unique. Mrs.
Converse has always defended the rights
of the Indians of this state, and she eff
fectively aided the Indian delegation at
Albany to oppose bill before the as
sembly which, if carried as a law, would
have deprived them of their lands. The
bill was killed in committee. Before
the hearing of the Indians by the COM
mittee Mrs. Converse had been invited
to sit in their Six Nations council, held
at Albany, an honor never before be-
slowed upon white woman save Mary
Jemison. This Six Nations, the most
important of all the Indian councils,
convenes only in cases of urgency and is
representative of the rights of all the
Indians of the league of the Iroquois.
When the Seneca national council, in
session at Carrollton, Cattaraugus coun-
ty, N. Y, in the Allegany reservation,
was called an application was laid be-
fore that body to the effect that, ''by
love and affection" it was the desire of
the Indians that Mrs. Converse should
be received into their nation as legal
member of it. Upon this appeal vote
was taken, and it was unanimously re-
solved that she be at once invited to ap-
pear before the council and receive her
Indian name.-New York Cor. Boston

A Rrave I.ittIa Woman.

Miss Loie M. Royce, one of the heroic
school teachers Of the western states
who came near losing their lives during
the great blizzard of Jan. 10, 1888, was
married Friday night in West Bay City
to Charles s. Thomas, a well known
newspaper man.
At the time of the great blizzard, Miss
Royce, who was then eighteen years old,
was teaching in q country school near
Plainview, Neb. On the day in question
she found three pupils at her school in
the morning.
During the day the storm increased in
fury, and at the close of school the
Eeacher and the pupils were unable to
seave the building. They remained un-
til all of their fuel was used up, and they
were becoming afraid they would freeze
to death in their prison when, during a
lull in the storm, the teacher determined
to make an effort to reach a house a few
rods from the school building Taking
the two youngest children by the hand
and bidding the other to follow close be-
hind her, the teacher started out on what
proved to be terrible journey. Hardly
had they left the school building when
the storm again increased, and in a short
time they had lost their way.
After wandering about until all of the
party had become exhausted and could
go no farther they laid down together.
During the night two of the children
died in the teachers arms. In the morn
ing Miss Royce, who was nearly frozen
to death, succeeded in reaching house,
and party went out after the one child,
who was still alive, but he died in a
short time after being found. For a
dong time Miss Royce's life was despaired
of Her limbs We're badly frozen, and
after few days it was found necessary
to amputate both feet, just above the
ankle.
After months of suffering, however,
she recovered sufficiently to be taken to
California, where she and her parents
spent months at Riverside. During and
after her long illness Miss Royce was in
receipt Of many letters of sympathy
from people of all parts of the country
Presents from unknown persons were
numerous, and offers of marriage were
often found in her correspondence. Soon
after regaining her health Miss Royce,
by the use Of artificial feet, became such
an expert walker that no one, to see her
on the street, would think that she was
without natures apparatus for walking.

the invasion of the matron upon her
special province. There is scarcely place
left now for the sole of her slipper be-
tween the schoolroom and strip of carpet
before the matrimonial altar. She is
simply driven into corner and told to
marry at once or lay down her passport
into realms of social gayety. This AFRO
gance of the married woman concerning
her monopoly of society amusements is
intolerable. She won't hear to having
impaired bellies brought into competi-
ton with her attractions. If they choose
to chime it must be with conjugal
clapper, and not as merry, independent
thinkers, ringing distracting little tune
of minated friskiness.
Girls are still permitted to have de-
butts, but even on those great occasions
the young lnatron steps in, and, by right
of double blessedness, takes all the cakes
and ale. The shy, sweet miss is left to
cut poor figure indeed. And so ON,
from first to last, the married woman
opens the ball, leads the german, occu-
pies the opera boxes, demands all the din
ner invitations, fills the victoria, receives
at the tea, thereby squeezing the girl
into such a small corner no one is ever
able to find her behind madam's over
crowded engagement book.
Mrs. Burton Harrison has instituted
demand for the restoration of the Amer
ican maiden as she existed before Euro
pean customs came to smother her light
under the bushel of an artificial society.
Not many years ago Uncle Sans virgin
daughter was the pride Of the nation.
Her girlish wit and independence, her
innocent fearlessness. her jollity, shrewd-
ness and beauty were the boast of the
civilized world, and with impunity did
she set her proud feet on the hearts of
mankind. Men admired and reverenced
her, for here, they said, is a new order
Of women. Untrammeled by the obliga-
tions of wife and motherhood, she is free
to accept our entire devotion; with the
discretion and knowledge of the matron
she combines the freshness of maiden.
Heretofore this union was held to be
impossible, and she has realized mans
ideal. But, alas! whence has this clear
eyed goddess of girlish liberty fled away?
