Crawford avalanche. (Grayling, Mich.) 1879-19??, 1892-10-06
Lo,. Lesson in runctual,tr.

Matthias Spitlog, chief.of the Wy
andottes, lives In Kansas, and being
known to possess about a million dol.
lars worth of property, is called the
wealthiest Indian in America. AL
though over 20 years of age, and I'M
able to read or write, he is a keen
business man. BY his shrewdness
and ability he has acquired large
tracts OF land in Kansas and Mis-.
souri,, houses and lots In Kansas City,
and has money invested in number
OF paying enterprises. The. white
men to whom he gave a $50, 900 les
son in punctuality had persuaded him
to sell them certain tract OF land
for $140,O 900, and were to pay him the
money at 10 o'clock at a. bank
in Kansas City. On the APP
pointed morning, a. few minutes
before the hour named, the old Indian
entered the bank and took a seat.
with his eye fixed upon p clock. The
capitalists had not appeared when the
hands Of the clock reached the hour.
AS it began to strike the old Indian
rose to his feet, and at the last stroke
OF the clock he promptly walked out
Of the building. On the street, less
than block away, he met the men
who were to buy his land hurrying
toward the bank. They begged him
to return with them, but Harper's
Young People says he refused, saying
that IL they still wished to deal with
him he would meet them at 10 o'clock
on the following day at the same
place. This time both the white men
and the Indian were promptly ON
hand; but when the former offered
old Matthias the price agreed upon
for the land he told them that, while
$40, 900 was yesterdays price, to-
days price was sl60, 600, and to these
terms they finally were compelled to
q ,cede.

theirpresent shape and plainness, and be
shorn OF their trains TO great degree
In other words. garniture IL to be- put
where 1t will be best seen-around the
neck, arms, body, and waist. Exquisite
little boleros, mere baby affairs, in vel
vet, will frame guipure yoke over sill
transparency, and then between the
apaulet OF guipure and lower sleeve
will come big puff Of changeable vel
vet. In some cases lace tunic will
drop from the low er edge OF the bolero,
reaching quite to the bottom of the
skirt, and dimly displaying the outline
OF the waist. In order, too, that the
Empire gown may be worn by stout
figures, deep lace bertha will encircle
the corsage, springing from the bust
line and on the same level with lace
ruffle OF the upper sleeve.
But In spite of all attempts to create
new styles the tailor-made, with its
jacket corsage and plain skirt grazing
the shoes, will continue to be the corr
rect wear for the street and all informal
occasions, and with It, OF course, will
be worn the ever popular felt hat, finer
in texture and more graceful in shape
than ever before. The modlsh tones In
felts will be light gray, green and light
beige. Underskirts will be ornamented
with hounces, rufiied bands, and with
lace when the wearer is not young
miss. .....
Lace-trimmed underskirts don't look
we'll on a young girl. Double and triple
pelerines are to be very much in vogue
for youngish people during the fall, the
material being zephyr cloth or velvet.
l need hardly add that stout ladies
should be careful how they lay these
pelerines on their shoulders. They
should make choice OF those which
reach below the waist.
l note that chatelaine belts are to
come into vogue again and to be made
to carry load Of artistic trifies, such as
small watch, purse, tiny mirror, q
powder box and wishing bone in gold
or silver. This takes the place of the
old-fashioned four-leaf clover. But the
greatest novelty of all is the statement
that ball dresses are to be glued TO.
gether, and fancy it Is bit of sarcasm
directed against those younQ folks who
show such a tendency to dance them.

A LOCAL magistrate at Pottstown
has established fixed value for
slaps. A young married woman had
her husband arrested for slappine
her, and was awarded 81 apiece for
five slaps, which the ungallant hus-
band was compelled to pay over TO
the insulted wife. Whether he con-
sidered them cheap at the price is
not stated, but the woman in the
case was tickled to death over the re-
suit Of her appeal to the law. What
will become of that clause In the
statutes that permits a man to chas.
tise his wife it is impossible to pre-.
dict, but the Pottstown squire has
established precedent that threat
ems serious complications with the
liberties of the married men of the
commonwealth, and his decision
should be promptly sat down upon
by the higher courts.

Relic OF the Little cornoral.

In queer little Boston store, heap.
ed with all sorts of curiosities, Her.
aid man a day or two ago discovered
among the old pewter mugs and time
stained prints a heap Of medals from
the scattered collection Of some en-.
thusidst. There were several bear.
mr. the head OF her most gracious
Britannia majesty, with different in
scriptions upon the reverses. Upon
one was sphinx and the words,
Egypt, 1885," Another had been
the reward OF some poor fellow who
endured the hardships of the trenches
before Sebastopol when the allies
held the Russian bear in check dur
ing that terrible winter. A Turkish
medal referring to the same campaign
was among the lot.
But the most interesting OF all, and.
OF course, most valuable, was cross
of the Legion of Honor of the great
Napoleon. These are very rare,
though those distributed by the head
OF the third empire with such a Law
ish hand are rather common. But
the one in hand, hanging from the
worn crimson ribbon, had been pre-
sented to some brave or learned man
by the great leader himself. The
white enamel had been slightly chip
ped from the ends of the five-pointed
cross, but the jewel was remarkably
well preserved. The center was of
gold and bore the head of the EN-
peror, with a green wreath of oak
and laurel surrounding the medallion.
On the reverse and corresponding to
the latter were the trlcolors. crossed
with the words "Honneur ct Patrie"
them. So rare are these
crosses that it is thought that the
one now in Boston is the sole speci-
men In this country. There are sew
eral collectors In this city who prize
such treasures, so it will probably re-
main here in some private cabinet.

The railroad companies, with pos
sible exceptions, exhibit a persisten,
intention to strike for "all the traffiC
will bear" the crowd expected t
come TO Chicago to attend the cere.
monies at the dedication of the Fair
Oct. 81. The Western lines have
followed the example of greed set by
their Eastern brethren and decided
to charge one. and third fares for
the round trip for all points within
$50 miles of the city, while throwing
out the ungracious sop of one fare for
all points exceeding that distance.
This attitude ia all the more OBJ
jectionablef as it Is the first time In
many years that the railroads have
departed from the long blished
rule/of one fare for the round trip on
am occasion that required the trans
portation of more than 500 people.
An enlightened view of the situation
should convince them that they are
standing in their own Eight. They
would do better to count on smaller
profits per passenger, and a greater
number Of them, than on the fewer
patrons who are willing to pay what
they regard as high rates under the
circumstances. In fact, l cent per
mile ought to be enough for such an
occasion. That would amount to I2A
cents per ton per mile, baggage in
cluded, which Is ten to fifteen times
the amount charged for other freight;
and If less weight can be got into q
car there is the compensatlng advan-
tage that 1t costs nothing to the COM
pany to load or unload the passenger
car, and there is no work or charge In
handling the contents in warehouses
before or after transportation is per-
formed. Since the railroads seem
determined to be illiberal to the Fair
they might as well exact full regular
rates both ways and be done with it.
Why hold out false pretense OF
wanting to make concessions on
freight and passengers, when the fact
is they insist on exacting more than
they have been in the habit of charg-
ing on occasions where the volume OF
business to be done was perhaps not
a quarter Of what they expect to get
from the Fair? Why not come out
boldly and announce that they pro-
pose to exact the full pound of flesh,
and say they intend to squeeze the
last penny out Of the public in their
power? Certainly it is not philan-
thropy, nor even sound business
policy, that prevents them from doing
this. 1t must be some less noble mo-
tive, such as a faint sense of shame,
that prompts the half-hearted con.
cession which is no concession at all.
