ODD CORNERS OF TIE WORLD

CHRISTIAN missionaries in foreign lands are said to experience more trouble in their attempts to convert Mohammedans than they encounter with any other class of people.
 FRANK VINCENT, the African explorer, has left Rangoon to continue his tray els into the interior. He has already travelled over S0O,OOO miles without meeting with any serious disaster or ac- cident. r.....
 A SHANGHAI correspondent states that it took the arrival of the United States gunboat Monocacy back of the local officials to prevent recent out break at Nankin because a missionary provided a Chinese boy with glass eye to take the place of natural one he had lost.
 THE Chinese settlers on the island of Sumatra have a strange and ludicrous form of salutation. When they meet each other, say after an absence of a month or longer, they do not shake each others hand; they smile broadly, and each grasps his own hand, shaking it vigorously for few moments.

Two on Chauncey.

Here are two stories about Chauncey Nj. Depew:
 A tramp who was given dinner by a kind woman started at it voracious- ly, when she stopped hlm and said: 'In this family it is always the custom to invoke the divine blessing before meals" "Well," said the tramp, 'me and Chauncey Depew always talk best after we've eJ."
 l saw letter some time ago written by the secretary of the national board of undertalSers, who were about to hold a convention at Buffalo, asking Chauncey Depew for reduced rates in consideration of their large numbers. It was written on paper headed with the title of their weekly publication, the Shroud, and concluded in these words: "lf you should see fit to grant our request we shall be happy to eXer- else toward you professional reciproci- ty"--Detroit Free Press.

THE CHILDREN's BUn DING.

Foundlings are happily not so abun. dant in Chicago as in Paris but if there should be any they will ts l;e the usual course to the city charities. The creche at Chicago, however, will be only a minor adjunct to the Chil3ren's build- ing, in which all kinds of games will be in progress. Expert kinderyartners will deliver lectures on foreign countries, Illustrating with stereopticcn, and then the children will be taken in classes to the section of the grounds where the for. eign country is represented. In the nursery all the latest improvements in dressing, feeding and generally caring for children will be practicrd, and there mothers may learn much that is valua- ble.
 George Cary, a Buffalo architect, drew the plans for the building, which is an adaptation of the palace of Fran cis l, in Paris, and the entire structure is 90 by l50 feet. The general form is a long rectangle, with projecting wing at each end, these wings inclOsing a wide open court before the main en- trance. The great object was to secure abundance of light and air for each room. The main structure is but one story high and the wings but two, and on top of the former is to be broad and airy roof garden, well secured, on which the children can disport themselves in safety. There will be receiving, dress. ing, bathing and dining rooms and everything to make life pleasant for the little ones There will also be phys ical training section aud many other features borrowed from the most suc- cessfnl institutions in Europe and Amer irh ----

What the Field and Farm Has to Say of the Industry In the
 Salt River Valley.

The following from the Field and Farm, Denver, February IS, will be of interest to persons living in the Salt River valley and will also convey i'm portamt information 10 persons con templating coming here:
 "The cattle industry of Il Salt River valley, while gradually giving way to fruit and other industries, IS by no means unimportant, and thousands of dollars are made yearly in the various departments of the cattle business There are thousands 0s head oi beef cat tie brought down from the ranges every year and fAUtened for market or the fields of alfalfa. Tine beef thus fattened brings high price in the market and is far superior to the corn-fed ar icIe oi the east. Many cattle owners in the territory are proprietOrs Of fields here in the salt River valley, and he-ides feeding their own heeves they purchase from smaller owners who have not enough To drive of 10 pasture and they claim bug profit by such transactions.
 "ANout Phoenix the cattle business is confined principally to the valley, the outslde range being limited. But the great ranges in other parts Of the territory, in New Mexico and in old Mexico, grow thousands of cattle each year which can be brought to the Salt River valley and finished to mutual ad. vantage On the ranges cattle can be grown much more cheaply than in q better developed district like our own | This ,,iv.g rott Ia naarlv ft1ll uTpwn at . very low price, SO that feeders can make handsome profit on them. 3s alfalfa fields are increased hereabout stl greater numbers of beeves can r,

 made better they can be handled tc still greater advantage.

then they have been offering entertain ment to man and perhaps to beast with the measure of success which might be supposed to attend the restaurant busi- ness in town 80 thronged with visitors as Phoenix has been.
 The lessor of the dining room, Mrs. McVev, who conducts the lodging de- partment herself recently concluded to make certain changes in the exterior appearance of the house and these pros peCtive changes were so comprehensive that they were likely to affect the entire ground floor plan, not excepting the dining room.
 Contractor Gray, who had taken the job of remodeling the house, was on hand yesterday morning with his as- sistant and the work of reformation was begun. Messrs. Ackers and Moore describe it as a work of destruction. Doors were removed, windows torn ont aud new and strange holes were cut in the adobe walls. A protest was entered ! by the lessees, but it had about as much effect as the prayer of an unrighteous man for rain when the wind IS in the wrong direction. | They called on Justice Kincaid through their attorney, Judge Wood ward, for some sort of an injunction to stop the Improvement. Later they de- termined to make a criminal case of 1t and caused the arrest of Mrs. McVey as the ,nstgator of the architectural revo- lution, and Contractor Gray and his as soc atrs, Joseph Willard, L Rechter and J. Resch, as aiders, comiorters and sbettors.
 The case went to trial late yesterday afternoon. There was nothing mono- tonous about the evidence. On the contrary the facts related by the plain tiff and defense presented pleasing variety, too pleasing, perhaps, for the jndge and jury who had to level the hilly surface of evidence and transform it into dead level plain of truth. The case is still pending.

INDIAN OUTRAGE. A Defenseless Woman Shot by a Pima Six Miles South of Town
 Yesterday, The Condition of the Victim
 Decidedly Critical. Her Blood Dripped Down Upon the Head of Her Babs Which Lay
 Asleepin Her Lap.

Work was brought to the city Tues day afternoon of an Indian outrage committed about six miles south of the city yesterday afternoon. The victim is Mrs. Simpson who lives in a tent with her husband and children near where the old MarIcopa road crosses the rlver.
 About two o'clock accompanied by her iourteen-year-old son, a fOur-year- old daughter and carrying a baby in her arms she was riding on load of wood some distance from the tent when the wagon was approached by a Pima Indian. He climbed upon the wagon and asked Mrs. Simpson for a drink ol water from canteen lying on the wagon. She told him it was empty and he immediately drew a revolver and began firing at her. The first shot plowed beneath the skin on the left shoulder, the second struck her Tn the back and two others whizzed by her ear. Her son jumped from the wagon and ran away and the Indian soon after left the wagon having evidently emp tied his revolver. Mrs. Simpson felt no immediate pain and did not know that she had been struck until she saw her blood dripping down upon her baby's head. She soon became helpless and was found by passer-by who took her to the nearest house.
 A messenger was dispatched to the city after Dr. Dameron and to inform a justice of the peace, Dr. Daweron hur- ried to the scene of the outrage and found the woman in a critical condi. ton. The second shot had entered the back just below the left shoulder blade, had ranged upward and emerged on top of the shoulder. In it's course it had grazed the lung SO that were there no other source of danger the possibil- ity of an acute attack of pneumonia alone would .anEe the chances of sur yival against her.
 She had already lost great deal of blood and there were beside evidences of internal hemorrhage SO that the doe tor was inclined to fear that she might not recover.
 Mrs. Simpson said that she was not greatly frightened at the murderous in- cident, and even aiterward she was not suffering from the degree of nervous prostration which might reasonably have been expected.
 The Indian is well known by sight by the settlers in that locality and the husband of the wounded woman swears that at first sight of him ne will trans form him into good Indian.
 There will be no dltficuIty in beating him, consequently news of sudder death among he pimas may be daily expected.
 The Pimas from the earliest timet have been friendly toward their white neighbors so that this apparently un provoked and murderous attack upon { defenseless woman can be accounted fot only upon the supposition that the In dian misunderstood her answer to hi, request for drink of water.

WoMAN's WORLD IN PARAGRAPHa
Must Women Teach Men How to Vote
 the Australian Ballot?

With all the intricacies of the Aus tralian ballot system we shall need presently to have young Americans in- structed in the public schools how to vote properly, and the teachers will be women. Graduates of Wellesley and Vassar can teach the average voter now. At each of these schools the college girls have studied carefully not only the Aus tralian ballot system, but also the ques. tions of state that occupied political parties during the 1892 campaign. Not only that, but they actually voted in November, these Wellesley and Vas sar girls. At Wellesley the election took place in the college chapel, not at the beer saloon on the corner. The young ladies had their inspectors in charge of the polls. Among them were members of the Democratic, Republican and Prohibition parties. At Vassar only the girls who had registered could vote, which they did at the polling places in the corridors under the eyes of the in spectors that had been sworn in.
 like to think of pretty and plucky Lawyer Ella L. Knowles, whom the Peoples party has elected attorney gen eral of Montana over men candidates in the Republican and Democratic parties. Miss Knowles is a highly educated young woman both in literary and legal lore. She fought so gallant fight sin gle handed in 1888 and 1889 for the recognition of women lawyers that the territorial legislature of Montana passed the law permitting women to be admit ted to the bar Miss Knowles herself was the first woman admitted under the new law in 1890. She has already good practice, and now the Peoples party has elected her attorney general of the state. Girls, let us all go in for the Peoples party now.

MENELEK'S CHRISTMAS.
How the King of Abysslnia Celebrate
 the Grcnt Holyday


 the Grcnt HoIyday.
 Abyssinia is so far away and the very name sounds so barbarous that we are apt to forget that it is a Christian land and the Abyssinians 'are all Christians of a rather peculiar kind, however, if we may judge from the way they keep Christmas.
 NJ. Castrioni, an Italian officer, who recently visited the court of King Men elek, of Abyssinia, thus describes what he witnessed:
 "The preparations for the Christmas festival began about three days before. From all parts of the country the chief tains loyal to Menelels were gathering to the court, accompanied by bands of followers and bringing with them a number of cattle and other commodi- ties. Each arrival was signalized by loud beating of drums and yells of wei come.
 "0n Christmas eve King Menelek sat on his throne, crown on his head and two young and tame lions on each side of him. The nobles presented them selves one by one and llnelt before him. He received them graciously, motioning with his hand for them to rise. Then a number of slaves entered, bearing plat ters of raw meat cut fresh and warm from cattle just slain and bowls of the fermented preparation which to the Abyssinian is the equivalent for wine.
 ''The king was first served, lSneel- ing slave holding platter in his ex- tended hands whi e his majesty ate.
 "Then the others fell to, and the meat soon disappeared. The supply, however, was abundant, and promptly renewed.
 Shortly before midnight a score of female dancers filed in and began the favorite dance of Abyssinia. The king and his nobles looked on, the chieftains with frenzied applause, the king with maudlin, half-digniiled nod.
 "How it all ended know not, for I withdrew. I heard afterward, however, that the drunken king turned his lions loose among the poor dancers for the amusement of his noble audience, and that several of the girls were badly scratched by the animals, which, how ever, did no more serious injury"

An Illustration of Mans Natural Imita-
 tiyeness.
 Do you see that gentleman sitting opposite?" said one man in cable car to his next neighbor.
 "Ycs."
 "I can make him pull his watch out of bis pocket and consult the time without saying q word to him."
 You know him, perhaps, and have it arranged that he shall do so on a certain signal from you"
 ''No. never saw him before in my life"
 "Well then, don't believe you can do it."
 "I have five dollars to say can" II have five to say you can't" "It's bet, is it?''
 Ut is"
 The other man waited a few mo- mcnts, until the glance of the man re- ferred to fell on him, and then, with much deliberation, he drew forth his watch and looked at it.
 The man across the aisle saw the movement and instantly lifted his own watch from his vest pocket.
 The man who had bet he wouldn't handed his five-dollar bill over without a word, and as the other took it he re- remarked:
 "It pever fails Look at your own watch and it is as catching as yawn- ing. Try it yourself on some body" '" Pittsburgh Chronicle.

a mood of profound contemplation.
 AlphOns Pelzer, the sculptor charged with the execution of this work, is ap- parently new man in American art, and his presentation of Columbus pos. sesses the primary virtues of simplicity and clearness of conception. It repre- sents Columbus the thinker-Columbus at the time when he was planning hs great expedition and when there was still great doubt in his mind as to its suc- cess. In one hand the figure holds a globe and in the other pair of com passes. The cross on the pedestal is an emblem easily understood, and dove has been added to give an air of light ness and grace as well as to typify peace. The statue is to be executed in bronze, and will be most appropriate figure in the capital of Ohio, city named for the great discoverer.

A Glimpse of Old London.

MT. II. c. Richards lectured in the English metropolis the other evening on "London's 800 Years" and among other things said: If you see, as you occasion- ally may, little party wandering about curiously poking and prying into old corners armed with BaedeSer or Hare, wanting to get into closed churches Ia standing shame) and asking where are ancient monuments which had been swept away by greed and avarice, they are sure to be American not English. Londoners were hopelessly ignorant of the streets in which they sIent the best portion of their busy lives.
 "Iow few whoever stood or sought ad- mission to the private doorway of the Mansion house pictured or thought of the scene of l,5O0 years ago-zthe deep and winding valley coming down from Bread street, clad with villa gardens, and the little colony of Roman rulers and traders overshGdowed and protected by the green bastion of a Roman fort The north wall and ditch extended east ward for nearly half mile, and a great. CT opening lay to the west for Waiting street, another to the north for Ermyr street, and straight road passed the market place in Eastcheap and wep' down to London bridge. l. the Roman' could but return today they would hard ly recognize their old lake fort, the city of 400 acres, and, with the exception oi Fleet valley, the ancient undulations art scarcely to be traced of the old city"

FOR THE CHILDREN.
A Beautiful Building That Will Be
 Worlds Fair Feature.

The Children's building at the Colum bian exposition and the attached creche. as it is called, will be places of great interest as well as of much value tc mothers. Although the plan is borrowed from France, it is to be hoped that the experience of the good ladies will be very different. During the Paris ex. position of 1889 mothers took their in. fants to the creche and left them in care of trained nurses while they wandered about the grounds, and when the ex. position closed the appalling fact was published that about 5000 infants had been abandoned and left to the mercies of the creche.
