The Light of the Future.

1t seems hard to believe that in very
few years the incandeScent lamp, which
we now regard as in many respects an
almost perfect light, will be regarded
as a crude makeshift which mankind
availed itself of while science stood on
the threshold of the discovery of the
perfect 1uminant. Mr.. Tesla has shown
in his experiments an ideal form of
electric lighting which would transcend
in luxury and convenience our present
system of electric lighting by incandes-
cent lamps as far as the latter transcends
the oil lamps and tallow dips used by
our near ancestors.
Every drawing room would become
an electric field in u continual state of
rapidly alternating stress, in which the
occupants would live, experiencing no
unpleasant effect whatever, while vacu-
Gus tubes of phosphorescent globes and
tubes, without care or attention, would
shed soft diffuse light of color and in
tensity arranged to suit the most lux
urious fancy.
Mr.. Tesla's watchword is that the
phosphorescent glow is the light of the
future. He hints at artificial aurore
spreading from the SUBMITS of towers
or hitherto undreamed of height, and he
has at all events got as far as produc-
ing in the air at atmospheric pressure a
glowing plane bounded by two rings
about foot and thirty inches in diam
eter respectively. Whether all his Wis
ions will be realized remains to be
proved. There is no doubt that they
are guiding him right.-Chicago Inter
Ocean.

jefferson Corroborated.

The biggest fish story of the season
comes from Saltwater, says the Green
witch, On. W Recorder, and strange to
say bears the evidence of truth About
a month ago Tom Jefferson was fishing
in the Hudson and caught on to fish
which pulled him out of his skif JEFF
ferson's story was laughed at when he
told it and he was told that he had been
using too much "bait." Last week
Tuesday, William Tobin saw large
fish floating on the water, but not drift
ing. He secured the dead fish and found
it caught by the gills on strong hempen
line attached to something in the bottom
of the river. 1t had in its mouth the
identical spoon and red rag which JEFF
ferson had lost. 1t was pike and
weighed twenty-seven pounds.

DON'T Talk Too Much.

Customers who show by their manner
that they prefer to be alone with their
thoughts while under the razor are never
annoyed, says an exchange.
A great deal has been said about the
talkativeness of BARRIERS, but if those who
try to be funny on that subject were
better posted they would find u reason
the barber.
It is infinitely easier to handle a Gus
toner who IS interested in CONVERSE
ton. This IS particularly true of q
nervous OF idgity man, who, if the oper-
alton goes on in silence, becomes rest
less and growls at the razor, or objects
to the way in which he is being shaved
The talk takes his mind away from his
face, so that he is often surprised to find
the work finished when he thought it
scarcely begun.
A barber never gets into an argument
with his customer. His opinions veer
around like a weather vane to suit the
particular man upon whom he may be
operating at the time. The conversation
dodge is merely one of the tricks Of the
trade. OF course there are few young.
er members of the tonsorial fraternity
who use little judgment in talking to
customers, and no one is more amused
than their fellow BARRIERS when they get
a setback from some irascible tempered
victim of their gable.

drive on with our wheel deep in the old
rut of graves. Trouble has wrinkled
your brow, and it has frosted your head.
Falling in this battle of life, is there no
angel to bind our wounds? Hath God
made this world with so many things to
hurt and none to heal? For this snake
bite of sorrow, is there no herb growing
by all the brooks to heal the poison |?
Blessed be God that in the Gospel we
find the antidote ! Christ has bottled an
ocean of tears. How many thorns he
hath plucked out of human agony
Oh, he knows too we'll what it is to
carry a cross, not to help us carry ours
He knows too we'll what it is to climb
the mountain, not to help us up the
steep. He knows too we'll what it is to
be prosecuted, not to help those who are
imposed upon. He knows too we'll what
it is to be sick, not to help those who
suffer. Aye, he knows too well what it
is to die, not to help us in our last ex-
tremity. Blessed Jesus, thou knowest
it all. Seeing thy wounded side, and
thy wounded hand, and thy wounded
feet, and thy wounded brow, we are
sure thou knowest it all.
Oh, when those into whose bosom we
used to breathe our sorrows are snatched
from US, blessed be God, the heart of
Jesus still beats, and when all other
lights go out and the world gets dark,
then we see coming out from behind a
cloud something so bright and cheering,
we know it to be the morning star of
the souls deliverance! The hand of
care NAV make YOU Stagger, or the hand
of persecution may beat you down, or
the hand of disappointment may beat
you back, but there is a hand, and it is
so kind, and it is SO gentle, that it
wiueth all tears from all faces.

HUMAN LIFE SECONDARY

The tragic death ON the gallows
at Tahlequah few days ago Of
John Weren, an ignorant full-blood
Of whose guilt there is probably
no doubt in the world, recalls a
fact to all those who stop to think
that to be punished for a viola
ton Of our laws, however llagrant
that violation may be, Is the ex-
ception rather than the rule under
our system, In the melting out of
justice to this poor Indian even to
the extreme limit of taking his
life in satisfaction and ylndication
Of the law, we are Drought face to
face with the fact that nine-tenths
Of the violators of the law 80
'scot free" If a law is enacted
that infringes upon the rights Cor
the business rather OF those who
are monopolizing the greater part
Of this country, they at once very
diligently set to work to evade or
defeat the ends for which il was
enacted. How many thousand
acres of the fertile lands of the
Cherokee nation are in the hands
OF foreigners and non-eitizens, in
open violation of law, having been
leased to them in large tracts by
citizens in the very face of the
law2 Thousands and thousands
of cattle are being unloaded and
turned loose so near the border
that they will drift over and Craze
the whole season upon Cherokee
grass; this too, in violation of one
of the most recently enacted laws
Of the country. The enforcement
Of the law which called upon John
Weren to give up his life upon the
gallows did not happen to touch
the pockets or interfere in any way
with the plans of those who see
fit to use the country for their own
aggrandizement, and who care moth
ing for the government, its laws,
nor its people, any further than to
make money out of them But
this incident is only one Of the
many signs of the times. 1t shows
the drift. 1t shows that the peo-
pie are getting more and more to
disregard the law, that national
pride and patriotism are at dan
gerously low ebb, and that the
common people who should be
the strong arm of the Cherokee
government are not "in it," What
is the remedy? Manifestly there
is but one remedy and that is to
indiyldualize the title to the land;
place every man in a position to
know what his rights are and en-
able him as an individual citizen,
having rights peculiar to himself,
to defend those rights. That
which is eyerybody's business is
nobody's business. As long as |
the land is held in common the |
laws will be violated without. let |
or hindrance, because no man can
defend his individual rights from
invasion by those who are stronger |
financially then himself, under a
system where the lands are held I
in common. A mans rights, as
construed in the Ch ero.
kee nation at present, are only
limited by his finances.

not allow those Shawnee children
that are mixed with Cherokee or

This is Somewhat remarkable in

ed all that mad Cherokee blood to
draw. When their case is brought
