CRAFT AGAINST SCIENCE.
How High Wolf, the Medicine
Man. Retained His Nomination

HOW hfSn WOl1, the Medicine
Man, Retained His Reputation.
Capt. John j. Burke says that during
his stay in Arizona with Gen. Crook a
great deal of amusement was had at
camp by means of an old electrical
machine, says the Youths Com
panion. A silver dollar was
placed in pail Of water and
announcement made to the Indians that
any one might become its owner who
would take it out, while holding in his
hand. at the same time. the innocent
looking cylinder of the battery. Every
body tried, and everybody was
''shocked'' and failed. Then High
Wolf, great medicine man." accepted
the challenge.
High Wolf took one of the poles, and,
of course, felt no shock. He looked at
the glittering dollar in the bucket and
then at the extra prize of So Just COLI

his braWny arm was plunged up to the
elbow in the water.
am not prepared to say exactly how
many hundred thousand velts he re-
celved in the back of the neck, but he
certainly had as thorough an eXperienc e
with electricity as ever fell to the lot of
any aboriginal; and the worst of it was
tnat he Couldn't let go. Suddenly. how
ever, he began kicking, and smashed
the poor. rickety battery all to pieces. a
proceeding which involved sad loss
to us.
He was neither conquered nor humil-
lated, and boldly announced his readi-
ness to repeat the trial, proposal
which could not in honor be declined.
SO the battery was patched up. and we
allowed him to try again.
This time, as the crafty rascal had eX-
pected, the wheeZy machine furnished
almost no current. and he fished out the
money. though the moisture gathered
upon his face and neck. and his fingers
were doubled upon the wrists.
So High Wolf retained his reputation
as powerful 'medi cine man." since
he alone, of all the Indians in the re-
gion, had been able to compete with
the white mans mysterious medicine

witted by Soldier.
In the early days of the civil war the
Maine volunteer regiments were quar-
tered at Augusta several weeks after
their organization to be drilled and
trained before going TO the front, says
the Youths Companion.
Many of the soldiers were young men
from the country, in whose pockets the
bounty money burned as long as it last
ed, to the great advantage of Augusta
store and stablekeepers.
Two soldiers came into livery stable
one morning and asked the proprietor
how much he would charge for a team
to go to Watervllle.
six dollars" was the reply.
The bargain was closed and the SOL
turned, and one of them stepped into
the office and rendered the proprietor Sc.
''Oh, nor' he exclaimed. "Your bill!
is s12."
GLOW is that?"
"Why. you asked me how much for a
team to take you to Waterville, and l
said Sc; but you came back, didn't you?
l meant Sc each way"
The two friends, after little confer
ence, paid the Swindler the Sl2 and
went away without word.
About a week later soldier again ap-
peared at the stable office and inquired:
"HoW much for a team to Waterville?"
"Six dollars" replied the proprietor,
not recognizing the man upon whom he
had played so mean trick the week be
fore.
The soldier took the team and started
off. About 5 o'clock in the afternoon he
appeared on foot, and walking into the
office said:
Here's your Sc for that team I hired
this morning."
But where's the teamP' was the
astonished rejoinder.
"Oh. l only hired it to 60 to Water
vile, Sou know. left it at the hotel
stable down there. 1t cost me Sc to
bring it back last week, SO thought I'd
return by cars this time. It's SO mnch
cheaper, you see," and lie left the pro-
prietor to his meditations about the
comparative smartness of civilians and

This is VaIua BILE News.

There are hundreds of our people who
are suffering from lingering diseases who
have not received benefit from their fam
lily physicians Such sufferers should
write description of their cases to the
famous DR.. Greene of 35 West Fourteenth
street, New York, the discoverer of the re-
nowned medicine, DR.. Greene's Nervura
blood and nerve remedy, and successful
specialist in the cure of all forms of nerv-
GUS and chronic diseases. He can be con-
suited free of charge-that is, full de-
scription of the case should be written
him, and he will return his diagnosis of
the case, whether durable, and advice in
regard to treatment, without charge. In
his carefully considered answer he will
fully explain your disease and give you q
perfect understanding of ali its symptoms,
free of any expense.
DR.. Greene has devoted special attention
to treatment through letter correspondence,
and his successes in the cure of this class
of diseases by his harmless vegetable RENE
dies, is without parallel. As consulta-
ton is thus entirely free sufferers in our
vicinity should seize this opportunity
which affords an almost certainty of being
cured.

RAILROAD NOTES.
Becomes known Hereafter as the
Berkshire Division.

Becomes known Hereafter as the
Berkshire Division.
The Housatonic railroad. which was re-
Gently acquired by the Consolidated rail
road, will, after Sunday, December 10, be
known as the Berkshire division of the
Consolidated railroad. John P. Hopson,
who has been superintendent Of the New
Haven and Derby railroad, has been made
superintendent of this division, with Will
liam K. Lyon, for many years the superin-
tendent of the Housatonic railroad, as as
sistant.
The main line of this division will start
from New Haven instead Of Bridgeport, az
has been the case heretofore. It will 90 to
Pittsfeld. That branch of the Housstonic
from Botsford to Bridgeport is to be known
as the Bridgeport branch of the Berkshire
division. A state line branch will be run
from Van Deusenville to a connection with
the Boston and Albany. This will make a
direct route to Chicago and the west.
The change will be of great Importance
to New Haven, and especially to the bust
ness men of this place. 1t has long been
the desire of the big houses to catch the
valley trade, nearly all of which went to
Bridgeport. This change, it is thought,
will divert much of the trade directly to
New Haven. The two through. trains to
Pittsfeld go out of New Haven Instead of
Bridgeport. Bridgeport, however, has
good connections and is far from being
left.
This change will make New Haven the
center of the entire Consolidated railroad
system.
Mr.. Hopson, who is to be superintendent
of the new division, is exactly the man for
the place, and has worked his way up from
station agent at New London, and later
station agent at South Norwalk, until he
came to the Derby railroad station in this
city. Since then his promotion has been
rapid, his abilities and good work COM
mending him for promotion.

and without being tedious reciting my ex-

"I feel without hesitation in saying
that think DR.. Greene's Nervura blood

vorable results"
We have heard of many remarkable
cures being effected by this remedy, but
when we learn directly a-d from his own
words of it's curing man of Mr.. Parsons
prominence and standing we believe that
such cure should be to all a guarantee Of
the great curative powers of the remedy,
and should influence all thinking persons
who are suffering from dieease to use this
truly remarkable medicine. It can be pur
chased for 81 at any druggist's, and we
know it is purely vegetable and harmless
What gives US most confidence in the
remedy is the fact that it is the discovery
and prescription of DR.. Greene of 30 West
18th street, New York, the eminent epe-
cialist in curing nervous and chronic dis
eases, and that the doctor offers to all suf
ferers free consultation with him either by
calling at his Office or writing him.

ture sit apart, the council in the chancel
and the Keys in the south aiale. The pro-
mitigation of the laws Is attested, when
the governor, by messenger, requests the
attendance of the Keys. The two bodies
then sit in joint house, and large amount
of annual routine government business,
such as receiving the accounts of state col
leges, asylums and road funds, establish
ing rates for maintenance of public insti-
tutions and the appointment of commit
tees, is transacted.
Here ia a ceremony more than thou
sand years old. The whole of the little
time. The great impressiveness of the
scene is not only in it's antiquity, but in
the proof that here are a people who,
while respecting their government and
rulers, in this sacredly preserved custom
thus annually serve notice upon their
rulers that after all they are still but the
servants of the people, and that the peo-
pie shall ever remain greater than the
thing and things created to serve them.
And this is the same sort of intelligence
which American people are going to make
clearer and clearer to their own public
servants in good time.
If you were much in England as I have
been you would become very fond of the
"dear little Isle of Man." truly not as a
Manxman loves it, with an exultant and
unutterable devotion, for that could not
be; but in the idylic way which comes
from feeling you have found spot glori-
GUS in the heroism and traditions of its
people, spectrally fair in its sea setting as
gorgeous rose cut from Respondent bed
of sapphire, and weird and tender in It's
mountain slopes, glens and streams as the
misty corries of Scotland's north.
Reaausa of fhis T ofkan RIM aUav from
English mainland to these sweet and hos
pitable shores. It ia but few hours call
to Man. You are scarcely out of sight of
England when Mainland comes in view.

little gem of the Irish sea. From any

| thrilling, in their marvellous panoramic
changefulness; and ever SO ruggedly no

| your heart ia strangely stirred and stilled.
| There is not another picture like it ris-
| ing above the boundless waters-the
throbbing sea endlessly threading it's cir
cling foreground as with cleaning deli
cate thread of pearls. Then purple rim
of shade where the blue waters ripple
upon the shingle, or murmur beneath the
cavernous cliffs. Then higher threading
of red and white and green where the
towns and hanlets, massed among myrtle,
creepers and sycamores, look back upon
upland and down upon sea. Then round
ed hills afame with gorse, fold on fold OF
green and puce, melting into dreamful
heights among the tender clouds. Change
lees, this is the ever changing picture as
you approach it while your heart voice, il
not your tongue, can only articulate
