Graves of Old Time Indians.

Among the curious things of this coast
is strange Indian graveyard near Sequim
bay, about mile from Port Williams,
where the remains Of fully SEQ children OF
the forest have been left to the mercy OF
the buzzards. The graveyard is on a sand
spit on the beach, and the waves have
washed the shores and swept the loose
sand away, leaving the bones exposed.
Some of the bodies were buried in bas-
kets, some in boxes and some were wrap
ped in blankets and laid to rest in the hol-
low of stumps. Others were buried be,
meath the massive roots of some of the tall
evergreens that grow on the beach. a
number of little houses about the size OF
chicken coops were erected to mark the
last resting places of the chiefs and great
men of the tribes. The bodies of the chiefs
were carefully tied in baskets with ropes
and strands and placed in these little
houses or shacks. Among the curious
skeletons found was one of a dwarf only
thirty inches long, with skull eighteen
inches through. There were other dwarfs
among the dead, but none so short as this
man with a head large enough for giant.
This graveyard doubtless has great his
torical interest, but none of the old settlers
who have been questioned can give any &C
count of it or had ever heard of it before -

Beecher Was Often Afraid.

To one always ready to give so much
zeal and courage TO any cause which
claimed his special service, it was singular
to note how distrustful Mr.. Beecher was
of his ability to succeed In his earlier
work this lack of confidence in himself
was sometimes painful until he rose to
speak. But generally the moment he
stepped upon the platform all thoughts OF
himself disappeared.
Many times when going to speak on a
subject of special interest which 7 greatly
desired to hear, he would say: ooh, don't
gol l am sure l am going to fail, and |
don't want you to be present." For sew
eral years l yielded to such request, and
anxious and troubled lest he should fail,
waited his return. But he invariably came
home cheerful, and would say: II had
great liberty; now L wish you had gone.
The audience appeared greatly interested
and very appreciative. They gave me
great comfort and courage" and he would
appear happy and surprised. AS came
to understand his moods better no longer
feared any failure.-Mrs. Beecher in La

Wales as a Grandfather.

The Prince of Wales is human, after all.
and, as ! have already ventured to remark.
it is curious to notice the distaste with
which the approach of age is regarded by
men of all sorts and conditions, and the
ridiculous shifts they are put to in the en-
deavor to conceal it, even from themselves.
By combination of circumstances II. r. II.

and the arbiter elegantiarum of very

A Queer Sense of Right.

Here is an example of queer sense of
what is right. Men in the employ of the
government who use official franked en-
velopes for private correspondence are
usually careful to cross out the printed
warning against misuse of the envelope.
They paste stamp in the corner and mail
the letter with satisfied feeling of having
overcome temptation and of having
done the right thing. Yet, if it is wrong
to cheat the government of two cents, is it
not equally improper to cheat it of the
fraction of cent which the envelope costs |?
There is a difference between the two
transactions, but it is one of degree only

A DREAM.

There are times when dream delicious
Steals into a musing hour,
Like a face with love capricious
That peeps from woodland bower
And one dear scene comes chanSeless-
A wooded hill and u river;
A deep cool bend where the lilies emu
And the elm tree shadows culver.
And lie on the brink there dreaming
That the life live is a dream;
That the real is but the seeming,
And the true is the sunilecked stream.
Beneath me the perch and the beaver san by
In the dim cool depths of the river;
The struggling fly breaks the mlrrored sky
And the elm tree shadows qulVer.
There are voices of children away on the hill;
There are bees through the flag lowers
humming;
The lighterman calls to the clock, and the
mill
On the farther side is drumming;
And sink to sleep in my dream of Dream
In the grass by the brink of the river,
Where the voices blend and the lilies end,
And the elm tree shadows culver.
Like gift from the past is the kindly dream,
For the sorrow and passion and pain
Are adrift like the leaves on the breast of the
stream,
And the child life comes again.
Oh, the sweet, sweet pain of joy that died!
OF a pain that is joy foreverl
Oh, the life that died in the stormy tide
That was once my sunflecked riverl
John Boyle OReilly.

Old Trees in welbeck Abbey Park

The park at Welbeck abbey, the seat of
the Duke OF Portland, has been park from
time immemorial,go which fact some of
the old oaks are the best proof. The Green
dale oak, as it is called, must be $50 years
old; it used to be thirty-three feet in girth
at the bottom and it's branches used to cover
space OF 2, 700 square yards. Other famous
trees are the Dukes Walkingstick, the
Two Porters-so called because there is a
gate between them-and clump of gigan-
tic specimens called the Seven Sisters.
The park is ten miles in circumference and
contains forty-one lodges, all goodly houses
built of Streetley stone.-London Tit-Bits.

The Skin of a Mighty Grizzly.

Hudson's gun store that takes the cake. 1t
is 91G feet in length and So feet across in
the widest place. The bear that wore this
skin was a grizzly, aid he lived in far off
Alaska. Judging from the size of the skin,
he must have been as large as two ordinary
cows, and could not have weighed less than
$500 pounds. 1t is by far the largest bear
