A Lumberman,s Rendezvous.

This term might be applied to Stevens
Point, located on the Wisconsin Central
lines, at the gateway to the vast forest re-
gion which extends north to Lake Superior,
distance Of 200 miles, without break. on
account of its vast lumber interests. The
Wisconsin river, to which the lum bermen
have given the familiar and somewhat
affectionate title of cold Wiscons," not
alone acts as a lumber feeder to the city by
furnishing through its numerous tributa-
ries an outlet for thousands of acres Of
pine in the upper country, but it furnishes
water power that is second only to that
Of Neenah and Menasha, which cities are
also located on the Central" Millions of
feet Of lumber are cut every year, giving
employment to hundreds of men. In adj
dition to the lumber trade, ithas numerous
other manufactures; it is here where the
large car shops of the Wisconsin Central
lines are located.

SOME BLOODY HEADS
Carried Into Olympia in 1s56---An In

Hon. Edward Higgins, Of Tacoma, ii
his very interesting article in last Sundays
Ledger on the attack of Fort Nesqually by
the Snoqualmie and Skeywhamish In
dians, says they lived on the Snoqualmie
river, a south branch of the Snohomish
river, and in 1849 numbered between 300
and 400 The SkeyWhamish Indians in
l849 numbered about 450 and lived on the
Skeywhomish river, north branch of the
SnOhomish river.
The writer of this, in 1885, 81, 81, yery
frequently had trading transactions with
these Indians, and they often came to Fort
n Nesqually t0trade in bands of from twenty
live to fifty, and he always found them tie
most difficult to deal with, being quarrel
some and treacherous. One time in par
tlcular three notorious braves forced a
quarrel on him in the Indian trade shop.
and in the struggle which ensued he barely
escaped with his life. During the Indian
war OF '55 and '56, Patkynum offered his
services to Governor Isaac q Stevens.
which were accepted, and the chief, with
party of his tribe, were employed III hunt
Ing tor hostile Indians, and succeeded in
capturing a few, who were killed, deeapi-
tated, and their heads carried in triumph
TO Olympia.
The writer was well acquainted with
.Patkynum.n He was a sharp, shrewd
Indian, but in aspect not at all like the
Indian warrior we read about in works of
fiction, being. small in stature and rather
insignificant in appearance. He was well
acquainted also with the Nisqually chief
Lash-ehy-ack, or L9schi, and his brother,
Queimal. They were both good-looking
men and skillful hunters, Lash-chy-ack in
particular. He surrendered to Colonel
Casey, then in command of the United
States troops at Fort Steilacoom, under a
promise Of pardon, but was indicted by the
civil . authorities for murder, tried, found
guilty and hanged in 1856 in a hollow of
duced to give himself up to Governor ste
vens, and whilst waiting in the governors
outer office at Olympia, was murdered by
some party or parties unknown.

She was seeking summers diver

in the mountains she began to throw
the spell Of her lustrous beauty about

AS for the man himself, John Hines
was nothing but an honest, simple
hearted New Highlander of humble pa
rentage and modest means
So matters went on smoothly for II
fortnight or so, until the afternoon train
from Boston, on n certain Saturday,
brought Maurice Courtney, dashing
young New Yorker.
From that moment tho star of poor
John Hines was on the wane. lie
realized the fact with a dull weight at
his heart. as he slowly made his toilette
and went down to the hop in the evening
81 am so sorry" Mr. Hines, said the
spoiled beauty, when he had made his
way to her side and requested the plcas
ure of dance with her, "but am en-
tirely engaged
Then she introduced him gracefully
to Courtney. Hines held bis hand out
cordially; Courtney neglected to take
it, however, and the hint of sneer
curled on bis lips, as the hot blood
boiled into the others face at the nten-
tional insult.
Hines flashed sudden searching
glance into the young lady's eyes, aud
found them bubbling over with sup
pressed merriment.

and without another word he left tho
room.
Courtney stood petriiied, gazing in
blank amusement until Hines figure
was out of sight.
"By heavens That hayseed meant

his teeth. r....

was the laughing response,

Catching !" sooners."

Portions of the territory of Oklahoma heretofore in the hands of the govern ment have lately been thrown open to settlers. In order that everybody might have an equal chance in securing land, no person was allowed to cross the boundary before a certain fixed hour proclaimed by the governor. Of course several people sneaked in, and were driven out again by the soldiers on guard, but in order to make sure that none of these 'sooners," as they were called, were successful in securing land. squad of United States marshals were armed with-inoffensive photo graph cameras Though not deadly as a weapon, they served their purpose in portraying all the men caught within the lines, and those whose faces appear on the print cannot have their papers nor hold their claims when they appear at the land office.

CUBAN FIREFLIEs.
They Furnish the Cheapest Light in tn
 World, with No Waste.

They Furnish the Cheapest Light in the
 World, with No Waste.
 Secretary Langley, of the Smithson- ian Institution, has been experimenting for some time past with f1refies from Cuba. He says that the light they give is the Cheapest" in the world produced that is to say, with the least heat and the smallest expenditure of energy; and he believes that successful imitation of it would prove a most profitable sub- stitute for gas and electricity. The in- sects are beetles two inches long, and belong to the family of 'snapping bugs, g so.called because when one of them is laid on it's back it snaps itself into the air with a clicking sound.
 The secret of the light this hrefy gives is as yet undiscovered. Apparent | ly 1t is connected in some way with the mysterious phenomena of life, and chemists and physicians have sought in vain to explain its origin. On each side of the animals thorax is a luminous membranous spot, and these flash at in tervals, so the Cubans put a dozen of the insects in cage together and so obtain | a continuous illumination bright enough to read by.
 This light is accompanied by no per ceptible heat, and is seemingly produced with almost no expenditure of energy. How great an improvement it repre- sents upon all known artificial lights can be imagined when it is stated by the Electrical Review that in candle. light, lamplight or gaslight the waste is more than ninety-nine per cent. In other words, if they could be so ob tained as not to throw anything away they would give nearly one hundred times the Illumination which they dc | afford

MUSICAL INSTRUMENTS.

Near.y All of Them Arc of Extremely
 Ancient Origin.
 Apollo was the old god of music, and his favorite instrument, the Tyre, was invented by Mercury. When the latter was four hours old he found the shell of a tortoise and made 1t into Tyre with nine strings, in honor of the nine muses. This instrument Mercury gave to Apollo, who became a wonderful play CT upon it. The Tyre was used by the Greeks in olden times. and from it was fashioned the harp
 The old-time viol was the first instru- ment of its kind, and furnished the plan for the modern violin, which, however, is several hundred years old. It is said that Charles II. introduced it into Eng land. One of the finest makers of vio- lins was Stradivarius, of Cremona, who existed in the early part of the eight eenth century. Violins made by him are worth thousands of dollars now. The harp was King David's favorite in- strument. The harp was used by the Welsh and Saxons, and also by the an cient people of Ireland One of the old. est harps in existence is in the Dublin college museum, and originally be- longed to Brian Boroihme. king of Ire land

Constant Practice and Total Abstinence
 Requirements for Good Play.
 "Are you aware that there are few things which require such close mathe- nautical calculations as billiard ball?' was asked of St. Louis Globe-Demo- ;crat man. ''The good player requires a ball that is perfectly round, for a turn of a hairs breadth may cause him to lose a game upon which reputation and money may depend. The balls in the manufacturing process have to be sized, rounded, tested by a compass and fined down till exactness is attained. The ex- actness in the matter of the balls is no greater than it is in that of the tables and practice. The British champions, who rely upon what is technically known as the spot-strolre, always carry with them in their travels a small table with two pockets, placed in the position of those which are used in the playing of the spot. The missing of a days practice would so unfit a man for a really competitive game that no first class player would undertake it under such conditions. A curious point about the champion players is that theyrarely, if ever, indulge in the use of intoxicat- ing liquors or tobacco"

PRESIDENTIAL politics were lugged' into the house this week by the Harri-
 son and anti-Harrison republicans.
 Representative Henderson, of Iowa,
 made bunkum speech criticising Mir Harrison for not having given the negroes representation on the board of managers of the Worlds fair, which was replied to by Representative John son, of Indiana, who is known to be very close to MT Harrison. Mir Johnson created some excitement by letting the cat out of the bag concerning the im- famous force bill, which MT Harrison is still intent upon having enacted into a law, if his party can secure control of the house and elect the president again. Mir Johnson indulged in the stock abuse of democrats in the south for their treatment of the poor negro, which MT Harrison doubtless. hopes will have a good effect upon the negro delegates to Minneapolis. Democrats are delighted at this open avowal of close and con. fdential friend of MT Harrison's that the force bill is not dead, but only sleeping-it will be worth thousands of votes to democratic candidates for the house, as well as to the e'electoral ticket.

An Uniust Law.

It will probably surprise many per ons who have heard a great deal of talk about what wonderful privileges women enjoy under the laws of our land to be informed that there are but Ave states in the union in which a mother has any legal right to her child These states are: Oregon, Kan sas, Iowa, Nebraska and Washington. In all of these, the parents have equal rights as far as children are concerned. In the other states, ths father can do with the child whatever he chooses; can take 1t from the mother at its birth, or if he dies before the child is born, he can dispose of it's care and edu- cation until 1t is of age. The mother can't protect it from his cruelties, abuse or neglect, or interfere legally less she appeals to the courts, which are quite as likely to decide against as for her. No matter what the fathers habits or morals, she can't remove the children from his influence, nor can she have them educated or trained if he chooses to oppose her wishes
 While there are unquestionably wom- en who are as unwilling as they arc un- fit torcare for their children, it is fact impossible to gainsay that, as rule, women are infinitely more fit to take charge of their training and education than men. They know much better what the child requires and are much better adapted by natural instinct and \ gift to supply whatever is demanded.
 Itis a melancholy comment, very just ly observes the New York Ledger, on the condition of this country that a father, regardless of the intelligence or character of the mother, can, without notice or other authority than the fatherhood vested in him, remove the child from Its mothers care, and, as is often the case, keep it away from her to satisfy some petty revenge or to force compliance with his wishes in other matters. The mothers affection is made use of as g means of torture, and there are not wanting small-souled men who take advantage of the last privilege granted them by law. The statutes should be so amended that cases like this would be impossible.
