 Not Take the Bloodthirsty old Savage

 Geronimo and his Chiricahuas arc to be free again, and Arizona is displeased thereat. The frontiersmen say the old Indian is as bloodthirsty as ever, and that if he and his once get loose in tho White mountains many n life will be lost before they are corralled again. But General Howard says that an Indian 6S years old. as Geronimo is, is of no ac- count for any purpose of activity, and that this particular Indian is much more afraid of the frontier folks than they are of him. Old Geronimo's late<t opin- ion of tho whites was thus expressed in a recent conversation with Lieutenant Guy Howard, son of the general:
 ''At first I thought that you white men, who have put railroads and tele- graph wires around the world, could get us our farms in a few days, but now know it will take time. But believe that we will get them; th?rf you will take us from this place, where we are dying, and will put us where we can work and earn living for ourselves and our children.

A Queer Marriage ceremony.

A queer marriage ceremony was that in Queen Elizabeth's reign. before the deaf and dumb alphabet was invented, between Thomas Filshy and Ursula Bridget. Ursula could talk fast enough, but Thomas was a deaf mute. and as it was required that promises should he sx- changed in spoken words nobody knew how to manage the thing Finally tho bishop of London helped to devise n service by signs, and Thomas proceeded thus:
 Having first taken Ursula in his arms, he took her by the hand and put tine nuptial ring on her finger. He then laid his right hand significantly on his heart, and afterwasd, putting their palms to- gethGT. extended both his hands toward heaven Having thus sued for divine blessing. he declared his purpose to live with Ursula till death should separate them by closing his cyelids with his fingers. digging the earth with his fcSt as though he wished to make hole in the ground and then moving his arms and body as though he were tolling a funeral bclL-PittsbUrg Dispatch.
