a strange Aooldent.

"The strangest accident that ever fell
within my observation" said Harold
Chapman to friend in the Lindell, "oc-
CURED at my home in Medicine Lodge,

boy was playing with tin cup, catch
Ing water from the rain pipe and pour

ran along this rut out onto the cistern
platform. While he was STOPPING to fill
the cup from the rain pipe flash of
lightning came, seemingly attracted by
the iron cistern pump. The current
leaped from the pump to the current of
water that ran along the porch and
flashed along its course to the end.

When the war closed there were about
600 negroes owned by tho Creek Indians.
When they were free the Indians at
tempted to drive them out Of the terri
tory. The government wouldn't permit
1t, but made them citizens of the Greek
nation and clothed them with all the
rights and privileges of full blood.
The Indians were compelled to accept
this state of affairs. For awhile they
badly treated their black skinned broth
ers, heaping all sorts of indignities upon
them, which were borne with patient
fortitude. When the lands were divided
the government gave them pro rata
share. They have increased In popula-
ton, now numbering about 1000, raised
respectable families and are doing well.

Long Island Iniians.

There was time when many of the
Shinnecocks shared in the occupations of
the white people and acquitted them
selves with great credit. l allude to the
whaling period in Southampton history,
The Shinnecock at sea, whether pure
blood or half breed, made an exact sailor.
The discipline of the forecastle was good
for him, at least so long as he was afoat.
Many Of them got to be mates, and one
became captain. This distinguished
sailor man was not a pure bred Indian,
but was part negro, and probably had a
small though potential quantity of white
blood. This was Captain Lee, and any
one down toward Southampton or Sag
Harbor can tell of his giant stature and
immense strength. This Captain Lee
was the son of q still more famous man,
Parson Lee.-John G.. Speed in Har-

The Endowment of Daughters.

The propriety of endowing daughters
appears to be now seriously discussed in
different parts Of the country. This
arises partly out of growing sense of
justice, which, the philosophers say, is
the last sentiment to be developed in the
case of women, and partly out of the
commercial exigencies which in the last
twenty years have left stranded so many
women with no means of livelihood.
The endowment of daughters would ac-
complish several ends. 1t would enable
them to marry the men of their choice,
it would support them IL they do not
marry, and in case of commercial disas-
ter would furnish at least temporary
provision for The family. The matter
has progressed until the methods of en-
dowments in different countries are I'M
der advisement.
According to Sir Henry Maine it was
the passing of the Roman dowry into
France after the conquest of Gaul that
has made of France the richest and most
prosperous of nations. 1t is unlikely,
however, desirable as it might be, that
the frugality and self denial the hum
blest Frenchman practices to lay aside
his daughters dowry will appeal to a
nation accustomed to easy living and as
impatient for swift results as this.-New

A Prize Easily Won.

A set of topers We're carousing in the

cracking jokes and telling funny stories.
After an interval of rest one Of their

Tho offer was accepted, and there was
a neighing, croaking, grunting, a

to deafen the hearers. Tho last man
then stood in the ring, and-did nothing.

thought of calling ''immoral:" cat eight
cen married, of my own foolish will, q
man of fifty, who adored me. At twenty
had learned that it would be a sin to
waste my full young life--the only life

monstrous union. He was good
man, and, according to his lights, a model
husband. i could not but respect him,
but we had not one emotion in common.
We were wholly incompatible in feeling,
sentiment, in nature. Upon this ground,
and this alone, obtained divorce"
Tear away sentimental verbiage and
this woman's case stands thus: Her hus-
bands ideas and tastes were not, to her
apprehension, favorable to the develop
ment of what she sketched as the life
she ought to lead. Her individual hap

A Sermon Exchange.

The latest enterprise which we hear
announced in the young and enterpris-
ing west is the Sermon exchange" Of
Chicago. According to popular belief
the practice of clergymen has been to
write sermons until they had filled u
barrel. Then the barrel would be turned
upside down and the sermons all
preached over again. Where minister
remained in q church great many years
the congregation would after awhile be-
gin to know when the barrel was turned.
Some sermons were looked forward to
with much interest and others with more
or less dismay. The Sermon exchange
is to do away with all of this. 1t is no
longer necessary to preach sermon over
q second time The preacher can take
an old sermon and tie twenty-five cents
to it. This he sends to the exchange and
receives one written by some one else
by return mail, or if he has no sermon to
send he can get one for fifty cents.-Bal-

Bound to Saw Something.

Among other anecdotes of university
life Dean Hole tells of an occasion when
there was some doubt as to the locality
Of city mentioned in Greek text, and
the lecturer addressed youth who had
just come up from the famous Shrews-
bury school, Now, Mr.. Bentley, you are
q pupil of our great geographer, DR.. But
Ter, the Atlas of our age, who carries the
world not on his shoulders, but in his
head, and you can probably enlighten US
as to the posstaon Of this ancient town"
II believe, sir" was the prompt reply,
that modern travellers are of the opin-
ion that the city ought to be placed about
ten miles to the southeast of the spot
1t now occupies on our map"
After receiving respectful thanks for
his information, the informer told Dean
Hole as they left the lecture room that
he had never heard of the venerable city
before, but that for the honor of Shrews-
bury and the reputation of DR.. Butler
he felt himself bound to say something.

WIND WINDS A CLOCK.
An Ingenious Continuance of an Inventor
I'm Belgium,

III belgium
The Garre de Nord, Brussels, has been
fitted with q mechanical wonder in the
shape of clock, which, although con-
stantly exposed to all kinds of weather,
never gets out of repair, nor does it need
to be wound by the hand of man. 1t is
sperpetual timekeeper of the most unique
and original design, the running weight
being kept in constant motion either
through the influence of gravitation, as
when on the descending trip, or by the
winds action on fan attachment which
causes the weight to rise to level with
the top of the framework. The winding
attachment is not windmill Of the reg
ulation type, but is q fan placed in
common chimney, the paddles being act
ed upon by the natural cup cast" or
"draft."
As soon as this fan has raised the
running weight" to its extreme height,
the cord to which the weight is attached
acts ON q wheel which throws q brake
into gear, and the more rounds Of cord
that are added, so much more strongly
does the brake act to prevent the weight
from rising any higher, the checking
tendency being transmitted to the fan
wheel with every revolution.
A simple pawl arrangement prevents
the down draft from exerting any con-
trary influence ON the fan wheel. There
is not, as one might suppose on first
thought, any necessity of having q fire
in the stove or fireplace OF the chimney
to which this odd clock is attached.
The natural tendency of air is to ascend
through such vents, the draft thus ere.
ated being always sufficient for weight
winding purposes. The clock might be
placed at the top of u hollow tree with a
bottom opening, or any other cylinder
from fifteen to twenty five feet in height.
With its present attachments this
clock runs but twenty-four hours after
the winding fan stops, but by the addi-
ton Of another wheel or two, might be
made to runa month or two even though
the up draft were not sufficiently strong
to turn the winding wheel in the mean
time. The inventor is native Of Bel
GUM, Louis Republic.

Interesting Facts About the Growth OF the
Delivery System.

Delivery System.
Thefair OF the postoffice employees was
an incentive to resuscitate and revivify
every postal article obtainable that was
quaint, ancient, and antique, even to an
exhibit of q picture of the building used
for the first postoffice. In connection
with this might have been mentioned the
fact that it was in 1923, nine years after
the construction of the first fort at the
southern end Of Manhattan Island, that
the first postoffice saw its beginning.
Previous to this, masters of vessels
bringing letters from domestic and for
eign ports brought them on shore and
left them at coffee house, where the
merchants, the burghers and the loung-
ers met to discuss the topics of the day.
Here the letters were deposited in
rack, where they might be obtained by
the persons to whom they were ad-
dressed.
In 1850, when New Amsterdam con-
sisted of struggling groups OF one story
houses with peaked roofs and gable ends
fronting the street, and when the city
extended no farther north than Wall
street, there was the town winding near
the Battery, and the government house
stood in Water street, near Whitehall.
1t was in this year that the letter carrier
first appeared-the lounger who carried
the mail te the merchant or burgher. It
was not until 1892, however, that the
first city postofiice was established, near
Bowling green, the postmaster being
Richard Michel
In ITO the British postmaster general
established the general postoffice in this
city and ordered that all mails coming
by vessels should be sent there. A year
later post routes between New York and
Boston and New York and Albany were
established, and the mails were carried
ON horseback twice month. In 1740
similar route was established between
New York and Philadelphia.
In 1853 Benjamin Franklin was ap-
pointed postmaster general of the col
onies Alexander Golden soon after
ward succeeded Richard Michel as post
master of the city, which Office he held
until the beginning Of the Revolution,
when the postoffice was abolished by the
British officials and remained closed for
seven years.
William Bedlow, after whom Bedlow's
island was named, was the first post
master appointed after the war, and in
1876 he was succeeded by Sebastian Bar
mum, at which time the postal revenue
was 81, 789, and the city directory con-
tanned 026 names only.-New York Trib-
