a CURIOUS BADGE OF HONOR.


The Indian Found That FtAv White Men

people who had him in charge coaxed
him to retain his Indian garb, fearing
that the picturesqueness Of their
charge would be destroyed by the
change. But the thief was stubborn
and had his way. On the night chosen
for his appearance before an Ottawa
audience he came on the platform
dressed in Prince Albert coat, broad
cloth trousers, prunella CATERS, flow

handkerchief around his neck and a

JUST ONE MINUTE.
But That Was Long Enough to Think Of
Many Things.

But That Was Long Enough TO Think OF
Many Things.
Here is psychological experience OF
a remarkable kind. A day or two be-
fore Christmas lady was coming out
of Park Square, across Boylston street.
to the Common. The crossings were
muddy and very slippery. She had been
lodging wagons and cars, and was
picking her way across the muddy
street, when she saw, coming down
the Boylston street incline, a double
team attached to a heavy express
wagon, with projec ting pole in front
She slipped on the wet crossing, and the
little accident so delayed her movement
that the team was upon her almost be-
fore she knew it The speed of the
horses was so great that the driver
could not have checked them or diverted
them in time to save her. She made a
desperate struggle to get away and
slipped again, and at this instant the
pole of the rushing wagon grazed SO
closely to her cheek that she felt its
rushing movement twas here that the
psychological phenomenon referred to
occurred. The lady distinctly heard
and felt the cracking and crunching OF
her own bones under the wheels of the
wagon; she was, in her own conscious
ness, completely under the wheels OF
the vehicle, where she was being fatally
run over. At the same instant this
thought flashed through her mind:
There is no means of identifying me
except railroad Communication ticket in
my bag, which has my husbands address
written on the cover How dreadful for
him to hear of this in this way" Then
there came to her senses sort of pam
oramic picture of her husband and chill
dren at home, with no way of finding
the Christmas presents, which she had
hidden away in various places about the
housed Her imagination recalled every
separate spot, with all the details of it's
surroundings, in which these presents
were located--in the attic, some in
closets, some in bureaus, etc
BY this time the lady had reached the
curbstone, and had not been run over
at ALL The whole affair had taken place
within three feet of the curb, and had.
of course. occupied only the merest in
slant of time. The impression OF the
breaking OOneS, thc WhcoiS sOAhS wv
and all the rest had been pure imagina-
ton, and had come to her at the very
instant when the pole Of the wagon
brushed SO closely to her face. Never
theless, she carried away an ache in
every bone, and could not, for some
time. disabuse her mind of the sensation
of having been actually run over. -Bns-

To the IMAM person" who writes this,
it seems the height of folly for the
housekeeper to spend hours, part of
which ought to be given to reading,
rest, recreation or sociability, in the
preparation of toothsome but indigesti-
BILE dishes that will afford the palate
but few moments pleasure at most,
while entailing upon the stomach a
grievous burden.
We need simpler food, that can be
easily prepared, less depressing silence
and haste in eating it, and more time
(which would be natural result of the
first proposition) for our womankind to
enjoy some of the good things of this
life, that pertain to the mental rather
than the physical part OF existence.

confined at the waist by broad band
of black. 1t has long cape, full half
length, and trimmed very deliberately
with passementcric, as you will see in
the sketch. The shoulder bands are
very broad and run down. narrowed,
almost to the edge of the cape. A cor.
responding band trims the cape at tho
edge of each front piece, and there arc
narrow ones in between. The collar
also is adorned with passementerie.
The hat that goes with the cloak is Of

extremely rich in it's effect.

THE CIRCUIT COURT.
Its Present Session Will Be the
Longest in Years.

Outside number of small and un-
interesting cases the Circuit Court was
occupied yesterday chiefly with jury
case, which was that of James Per-
singers executrix versus +. j. Chap
man and f. Rorer, on bond for $3.50
given in 1883, defended upon the
grounds of failure of oonsideratio ns
and mistake in it's execution. This
case will be continued to-day. Col. r.
II. Logan and tho Messrs. Hansbrough
represent the defendants and Penn and
Cooke, the plaintiffs. It is expected
that this will be the longest session of
the Circuit Court for yeals, and that it
will probably last three weeks.
