PRAIRIE CHICKENS.
The Birds Have Dance Very Much ON
the Indian Order.

the Indian Order.
At this season Of the year North
American birds are busily engaged at
love making, preparatory to mating
and nest building. In an article on
the Olives and Loves Of North Amer
lean Birds' in the Nineteenth Century,
John Worth gives the following de-
scription of the preliminary courtship
of the prairie chickens" after the
disappearance of the snow" he says,
"and the coming of warmer weather,
the prairie chickens (sharp-tailed
grouse) meet every morning at gray
dawn, in companies from six to TWEEN
ty, on some selected hiiloclk or knoll,
and indulge in the Dance At first
the birds stand about in ordinary atti-
tudes, resembling people at ball be-
fore the music begins, when suddenly
one of the cocks lowers his head,
spreads out his wings nearly horizontal
ly and his tail perpendicularly distends
his air sacs and erects his feathers,
then rushes across the floor, taking
the shortest of steps, but stamping his
feet so hard and so rapidly that the
sound is like that of the kettle drum;
at the same time he utters a sort of
bubbling crow, which seems to come
from his air sacs, beats the air with his
wings, and vibrates his tail so that he
produces loud, rustling noise, and
thus becomes really astonishing
spectacle. Soon after one commences
all the cocks join in, rafting, stamp
ing, drumming, growing and dancing
together furiously; louder and louder
the noise, faster and faster the dance
becomes, until at last they madly whirl
about, leaping over each other in ex-
element After brief spell the en-.
ergy of the dancers begins to abate,
and shortly afterward they cease, and
stand or move about very quietly, until
they are again started by one of their
number leading off, as human dancers
are observed to do during the interval:
Of rest between their performances.
"The whole operation reminds Tho
looker-on so strongly of Cree dance
as to suggest the possibility Of its being
the prototype of the Indian exercise
The space occupied by the dancers
is from fifty to one hundred fee
across, and as itisreturnedt to year after
year the grass is usually worn off, ant
the ground trampled down hard ant
smooth. Dancing is INDUCED in a
any time of the morning or evening il
May, but is usually at its height befor
sunrise"

suppose you call your men in. wish
to be sure that you will keep your part
of the compact"
The four men were speedily inside
the room, and their eyes opened as they
saw the glitter of the gold The in
spector briefly detailed to them the
points Of the bargain, while the banker
looked from man to man and listened
anxiously
"You agree to tl1is?" said Billy, and
each OF the men nodded.
you will have no further trouble
from US, Mr.. Slider" said Billy Haven,
politely, at least for twenty-four
hours"
The banker drew deep breath of re-
lief as each man took o bag of gold and
quietly departed.
A few days after the papers were
filed with the startling announcement
that Mr. Slider, the well-llnown
banker, had absconded, and that an
enormous amount of money was mss
ing. Investigation Of the books showed
that he had been preparing for fight
for over a year, and rumor has it that
he is now living somewhere in South
America. But that is one of the things
about which nobody knows anything
definite. Robert Barr, in Detroit Free

HEALTH FROM A TREE.
Nlaouly, New Caledonia Growth, Which

Nlaouly, a New Caledonia Growth, Which
Is Valuable as "a Disinfectant.
For some time past much has been
said about tree called niaouly. 1t
grows in New Caledonia and furnishes
to perfume-makers valuable oil. Ac-
cording to the st. Louis Post-Dispatch
the leaves of this tree preserve meat
from spelling, exercise over the coun.
try the same wholesome influence as
the eucalyptus and furnish pleasant
aromatic adjunct TO sauces. The es.
sence is employed incidentally for blad-
der troubles and rheumatic ailments
with even more success than the there.
benthin, In Caledonia the niaouly en-.
joys the reputation of rendering
healthy every territory in which it is
introduced. This is undoubtedly true,
for IN allparts OF New Caledonia, where
this tree is at home, the fever is not
known at all The New Hebrides not
far from New Caledonia, are also in
possession of this health-preserving
mascot. The antiseptic properties OF
the oily essence of the niaouly, album.
dainty contained in the leaves, are
very great, and wherever they happen
to fall into the swamps, morasses, or
rivulets they disinfect the water com
pletely. Like tho eucalyptus, the
niaouly needs plenty of sunshine. The
seeds, which are very fine, must be
carefully sowu and covered with about
an inch Of earth. 1t is best TO do this
in the months Of May, june aQd July.
by December they win have advanced

SAW AND WE'RE PLEASED.
Willard, the English Actor. at the
E MetrODolitan.

Willard, the English Actor. at the
Metropolitan.
st. Paul greeted with a good house
last night the initial appearance at the
Metropolitan of the English actor. E. S.
Willard, in ''The Middleman." Much
has been said and more written of the
merits and talents of Willard, and per-
;haps no more than truth of either.
Willard is intensely natural, and
therefore honest and attractive,
and the realism he throws into
his work is actually startling. ''The
Middleman" is a real British play,
but life is the same the world over, and
no, audience but sends out its heart to
such despair as is shown in the third
act, where the fuel runs short as the
great discovery is about to be perfected.
1t is a powerful scene and magniticently
staged. with the firing house and the
pottery furnaces IN full operation. The
story is of the struggles of the middle
man. whose great secret, by which he is
to obtain the mastery and wreak his
revenge upon his enemies, is stolen
from him, and, of course, regained in
the nick of time. Willard plays the
part to perfection, and carries his audi
ence with him by storm. tie is the
acme of naturalness, without the sus-
pIcion of OVERRIDING. He is the vir-
tual character. and seems to think and
feel it, and there is not an emotion of
JOY or sorrow, love, hate or despair that
he does not communicate, sometimes
painfully, to his hearers. In his work
Willard is aided and supported by
good company, with pretty Marie Bur-
roughs at its head. Tonight the win
ming play. 1.-The Professors Love
Story, will be the bill.

HER MIND uNsOuND.
Mrs. Richard Bells Leap From a
Window.

The many friends of Mrs. Richard
Bell, who recently left st. Paul to make
her home in st. Louis, will be surprised
to learn Of her serious mental condition.
A telegram from ST. Louis to the Gin
cinnati Enquirer on Tuesday gives the
following:
About o'clock this morning two
policemen on the Cardinal avenue and
Olive street beat were startled by shrill
cries of Murder, murder, help" Hnr-
rying to the vicinity, they saw on the
veranda of the house at the southeast
corner the form of woman.
She was about to leap to the icy pave
ment. twenty feet below, and, as they
rushed forward to catch her. she leaned
over the very edge of the porch, and,
almost losing her balance. hurled a
double handful of diamonds into the
street. The next instant a man and
woman appeared on the porch and
caught the first woman just in time to
save her from a leap to death. The
woman was Mrs. Richard Bell, and ter
rible suffering from complication of
troubles had temporarily dethroned her
reason. The diamonds, worth in all
Sc. 1000, she threw into the street. One, a
gem worth 500 or $500, was lost.

But One Boiler Explosion in the
State Last 4 ear.
The state boiler inspectors held their
meeting, as provided by law, at the
capitol yesterday. There were present
besides Chairman Clerk, Charles Howe,
the newly appointed inspector in the
Second district. Ex-Inspector Bison,
of the Second district, was also present
and turned over his books as
secretary of the board to his
successor. Nothing of Importance
was done beyond discussion
of the boiler inspection bills pending in
the legislature. Copies of these were
read and several amendments sug-
gested, which will be presented with
the bills. Mcssrs. Clark and Home were
elected committee to confer with
members of the legislature and suggest
such additional legislation as is deemed
necessary.
The boilers in the various districts
were reported to be in good condition.
Only one explosion was recorded in
Minnesota in 1892. and that boiler had
escaped detection through technicallty
of the law.

The First Roll Will Be Completed
on Monday.
The board of public works is kept
busy in preparing the assessment rolls
for the Indian Mound, Crown Hill and
Phalen parks. The first of the assess
ment rolls completed will be that of In
dian Mound park, and on Monday next
the board will hold a meeting to COM
pete or give first notice of the assess
ment. One of the members of the board
remarked yesterday the impression
was that the board was response
bic for the levying of assessments
for the parks. Nothing, he said,
was farther from the truth. The board
simply acted as piece of machinery,
and when the resolutions of the park
board were sent them they fixed the as
sessment. The meeting Monday next
promises to be an interesting one, as
many Of the property owners in the
section assessed for the Indian Mound
park are opposed to the improvement
owing to the cost. The preliminary
notice tor completion of assessments for
the Grown Hill-better known as the
Lienau park-will come up before the
board Feb. Is.

A GRoUNDLEss FEAR
Caused Great Excitement at Rob-
ert and Fifth Streets.


ert and Fifth Streets.
The corner of Robert and Fifth
streets was the scene of an exciting cpl
sode yesterday morning. About 10
o'clock two wooden pillars used t. sup
port the building on Fifth street occu-
pied by the McFadden- Mullen company
snapped and forced out large pane of
glass. The noise made by the falling
glass and the appearance Of the wooden
pillars caused passers-hy to exclaim
that the building was going TO fall.
The crowd grew, and the arrival OF the
central patrel wagon only served to in
crease the excitement. The building
inspectors office was notified and an
official from the Office was soon on the
scene. Investigation showed that the
fear of the building falling was ground,
less. The accident. il it could be called
such, was owing to the stone piers on
