Several full blood Indians have Of late

the avocations of the white man. Gen
eral Parker, the Iroquois, was General
Grants chief of staff and is now pur-
chasing agent of the New York police
department, and the most noted men,
Der of the Creek Nation is General Por-
ter, of Muscogee, l. T., who has; repre-
sented his people as agent at the national
capital for many years. He is a very
picture of Indian manhood and vigor,
for he is tall, straight and swarthy. His
eye glistens like an eagles. His title of
general arose from the skill with which
he put an end to the three Creek insur-
rections in 1872, 1879 and 1884.

In some sections of California and sew

pie are beginning to realize that the
remarkable stories told of the ravagcs Of
rabbits in Australia are true. because
they are now suffering somewhat fror,

eifcctual means of ahating the nuisance
so far discovered seems to be the

A LITTLE DUST.

So used the Roman Virgil
To hush the strife Of bees,
Which hive with hive commended
Beneath his Mantuan trees;
They meet like human armies,
Like men they charge, they thrust:
To Quell the war you sprinkle
A handful of dry dust.
D fitful mans emotion,
O changeful hopes and fears,
D tears that end in laughter.
D laughter worthier tears,
o stormful, fateful passions,
Ambition, hatred, lust
How very still ye slumber
Beneath how little dust.
