AN INDIANS GRAVE.
Tow n Red Mans Death was the Cause
of a Fierce War,

The grave of an Apache Indian
lies at Apache TeJu, New Mexico,
and though the mans name is for
gotten his death was the cause Of a
fierce and bloody war between the
Indians and United States troops
Near Apache Teju was a Govern
ment post commanded by Lieut.. Nc
Lane. The indians Of the region had
been very troublesome, attacking
stage coaches and immigrant parties
and the Lieutenant set to work totry
and come to. some terms with the
commanding. chief. He invited him
alone to the fort and the chief came.
In the hospitable formalities prelim-
mary to talk the chief became
greatly intoxicated and Lieut. Me-
Lane had him put to bed under the
shelter tent in the corral and placed
two guards over the tent with positive
orders not to let the chief leave the
fort under any circumstances He
expected the chief to sleep off the
effects Of the liquor and be ready for
talk in the morning. The instruc-,
tions. however, seem to have given
the guards the idea that the Indian
was prisoner who must not be per-
mitted to escape.
at midnight, when the guard was
relieved, the chief was sound asleep.
The new sentries had only the word
of the relieved guard that he was
still there, and as he made no sound
they began to suspect that he might
have slipped away. Having taken
the post without making sure of their
charges presence, they began to feel
uneasy, fearing that they would be
held responsible for his escape. They
discussed the matter in whispers that
the Apache had escaped from the
other sentries, and that their com
rades had played a sharp tick and
shifted the blame to them. 1t would
have been easy to settle the question
by crawling in and examining the
shelter tent, but they were afraid of
the Indian and had some doubts about
the wisdom of waking up a drunken
Apache in the dark. They poked
their bayonets under the edge Of the
tent ald felt around for the Indian.
They found him. A sharp bayonet

chief to his feet with yell, aud he
sprang out of the tent bowling rage
and defiance AMI brandishing a knife.
The frightened men tlred at The
chief and shot him dead.
1t was futile to attempt to explain
the affair to the Apaches who were
awaiting for their chief to return
How could the Lieutenant tell them
that fort full Of soldiers had tc kill
one Apache in self-defence? They
knew that their chief had been lured
to the fort by solemn promises of
protection and freedom to return, and
that he had been murdered by the
soldiers and they believed that it was
all treacherous plot So they went
upon the warpath and killed white
men and women wherever found.
The dead chief was buried near the
post and here his bones remain until
this day.

Clergymen zre supposed to have a

in a witty and, let US hope, an edify-

Journal:
In early life he had met with. an
accident which left him with a broken
nose, deformity about which, in
spite of his piety, he was known to he
a little sensitive. One day new in
Quirer propounded the old question::
'How happened you to break your
nose?"
The minister answered sOlcmnly:
ITO tell the truth. nv friend, the
accident was caused by my poking
my nose into other people sibusiness. I"

WAYS OF THE AsroRs.
Peculiar Rules Laid Down for Their Ten
ants by the Great RenI-Estate Owners.

ants by the Great Renl-Estate Owners.
Some of the rules by which the
tenants of the Astors are bound are
curious For instance, although they
will make almost any repairs that a
tenant suggests before the lease is
signed, even though the repairs may
cost more than the rental, they will
not spend cent on the property dur
ing the existence Of the lease. A lady
who rented a house in Forty-tlfth
street from the Astors was told that
she could have any repairs or altera-
tions she wished, but no chandeliers.
She had the house decorated from top
to bottom and many expensive re-
pairs made and there was not re-
moastrance, but she had to supply all
the chandeliers, at cost of 81, 900,
herself. or course they remain her
property and she can take them away
when she moves.
A curious incident is related 10y
another tenant in Forty-fourth street.
She leased a house at rental OF
50, 600 for one year. When she came
to renew the lease for another year
she was informed that the rent would
be only 81, 800. She was told by
somebody who pretended to know
that the reduction was due to a de-
terioration in the value of the prop
erty, and that the Astors did not
want more than a certain interest on
it. That, however, was not true, as
was learned upon inquiry at the
Office of the Astor estates The clerks
there said that the reduction was due
simply to the fact that during the
first year they had charged a per
centage for repairs and changes. As
none was required the second year
the percentage was taken of Never
theless, it remains the fact that the
reduction was voluntary and to the
tenant unexpected.

Don't Steal Your Employers Tin,

DOn'C Steal our Employers y IltAo
There are great many people-we
hope you are not one of them-who,
if you give them an inch will take an
ell; fellows who, although drawing
the same pay, allow you to do the
heft of the work. The sleepof these
toilers can't be very sweet, for they
are cheats and light weights. Form
no partnership with them. If they
won't mend, oppose and bounce them.
There is horse with a good steady
pull bursting the harness in his ef-
forts At his side is a beast that
needs the lash to keep him up to his
obligations. AS with horses so with
men-poor improbable breed In
any gang of men there are so many
skulkers absent from their post more
than half dozen times a day, ten
minutes each time at least, and
an hour OF seventy minutes at
meal-time. Such men are thieves,
for man who will steal
your time will steal your money
with impunity. Many OF them are
incuraD Dles, all of them are nuisanccs.
They are jockeys all the time, irving
to get ahead by trick. The way to
get on and be teloved Is to give full
measure wherever you are, and if you
have boss who doesn't reward this
trait, move until you fall in with
him. You will not have to move

News and Impure Literature.

A newspaper, as 4 faithful histo,
rian, must record the events OF each
day, the good and the bad; but it is
guilty of a csimc against society if it
purveys "impure literature Acting
in its rightful function. the newspa-
per is a most powerful agency for the
prevention of crime and impurity.
The IubliCity it gives to offenders in
the pursuit Of its duty of chronicling
the occurrences oNshe day, is a most
efficient deterrent from crime and
vice and impurity. Wickedness is
afraid of the light Of publicity which
the newspaper casts upon it, In the
performance of that duty, however,
a newspaper is never justified in
pandering to depraved tastes. II is
not eXcusable in printing scandal
simply because the people like scandal.
1t is morally culrable If it publishes
'impure literature Of any kind or
for any purpose.

OF all. The great improvement of the Spading

THE sNow-wEAvEs,s SONG.

=
Back and forth the shuttles go
Fashioning the cloth Of snow,
And the weaver you may hear
at the wind loom singing clear
"Slunber, little flowers, and dream,
OF the silver throated stream,
Shining through the April day
As 1t were a music ray
Bearing melody along
From the mellow sun Of song.
Slumber. little fragrant faces.
Dreaming in your quiet places;
Soon the dreams shall pass-and then
You and spring shall wake againP
Thus the weaver at his loom
Sings away the winters gloom,
While he weaves the coverlet
For the dreamers who forget:
''Slumber. little flowers, and dream
or the Apri's golden beam
Which shall come aud fill your eyes
With the sunlight of surprise:
Wsking, you shall hear once more
Song birds at the daybreak's door.
Slumber, little fragrant faces,
Dreaming in your quiet places,
Soon the dreams shall pass-and then
You and spring shall wake againr'

KISSEn HIS MOTHER
She sat on the porch in the sunshine
As went down the street
A woman whose hair was silver.
But whose face was blossom sweet
Making me think of a garden
Where, In spite OF frost aui snow
OF bleak November weather.
Late fragrant lilies grow.

And sound OF a merry lauyh
And knew the heart it came from
Would be like comforting staff
In the time and the hour Of trouble.
Hopeful, and brave, and strong;
One Of the hearts to lean on
When we think that things go wrong.

And met his manly look;
A face ike his gives me pleasure,
Like the page of a pleasant book;

That God grant the years fulfill.
