AnIndian Reform

The Mohaves and other river tribes of Indians have finally decided to abandon the practice of burning their clothing and killing horses at the cremation of their dead.
 United States Indian Agent Davis has been for some time trying to in duce them to do this, as their custom of destroying their property on the occasion of a death kept them in a constant state of impoverishment. He converted old Hookarow, sub-chief of the Mohaves on the Parker reserva- tion, to the idea, and when the various tribes and chiefs met here on the oc- casion of the pow-wow the matter came to a head
 A council of the chiefs on the sub ject was held Thursday morning in Master Mechanic Hancock's office, being called by Chief Marmathuka, who is acting as head of the tribe during the minority of Sukilyihomu- hava, the hereditary ruler, a boy of about l2 years. All expressed them selves m favor of the change and re- solved that this useless destruction of property shall no longer be permitted |.
 It is to be hoped they will live up to their determination. If they do so they will in few years be in much better circumstances than they are now. Their moral character will also improve as result of abandoning this custom, as much of their savage nature is brought out st these crema- tions through the haranguing of the medicine men.-Needles Eye.

MANY complaints have been made of late by those visiting the reading rooms in the evening that it is impossible for them to get a drink of ice water. We are in formed that all the small boys in town make it a practice of going there every day and drinking and wasting it, consequently when evening comes there is no ice water.

Why the Dog Turns Round.

Have you ever thought why it is that
a dog turns around and around when
he jumps up on his cushion or starts to
settle himself anywhere for a nap?
Now you are reminded you can recall
that you have seen a dog do it many
times, can't you? This habit is about
all that is left to our tame little dog
gies Of the days long ago, when they
were a race of wild animals and lived
in the woods. Their beds there were
matted grass and leaves, and it was to
trample enough grass and properly ar
range the leaves that the dog always
trod around narrow circle before he
would lie down. The dog Of to-day
keeps up the same old habit, although
there is no longer any need for it, and,
of course, the animal has no notion
why he does it.

sQUAoRoNs OF HORSE FLIES.
A Frcnchmans Scheme FOR Carrying Dis
ease Into the Camp of the Enemy.

A Frcnchman's Scheme for Carrying UIa-
ease Into the Camp of the Enemy.
Some amusing particulars of the in
ventions that have been offered to the
French war Office since 1871 have re-
Gently been published in a French
newspaper, the majority of which, ac-
cording TO the London Court Journal,
are about equal to the Laputan scheme
for plowing fields, namely, by sowing
acorns in rows and then turning in pigs
to root them up. One genius sought q
patent for the training of squadrons of
horse flies. These auxiliaries were to
be fed exclusively on blood served up
beneath the delicate epidermis of me-
chanical figures clothed in the uniforms
of members of the triple alliance, so
that when political relations in Europe
were strained the flies might be given
daily little of the juice of certain
poisonous plants, and on actual declara-
tion of war be turned out in the path
of the enemy. Another ingenious per-
son proposed a scheme for educating
war dogs In times of peace he would
train French dogs to bite lay figures
wearing Prussian helmets, in order that
on the outbreak of the war the kennels
of the whole country might be mobil-
lied and let loose on the enemy. Then
there are numerous proposals for
bridging rivers by means of ropes
attached to cannon balls, and q pho
tographer suggests novel kind of cap
tive shell, which, breaking over the
fortified position of an enemy, would
disclose n small camera attached to a
parachute. The enemy's Notifications
would be instantaneously photographed
and the apparatus hauled back by the
string and the negatives developed at
leisure. Two ideas are very inhuman.
One is a scheme for sending large
quantities Of poisoned needles, as il in
charity, TO the enemy's generals, who
would of course, distribute them to
their forces, and so poison their unfor,
tunatc users; and the other to charge
explosive bullets with pepper. Two
objects are pursued by the inventor of
the pepper-its discharge would blind
the enemy and the great demand for
the condiment in time of war would
stimulate the trade of the French COZ
onies and increase the revenue of the
country. There are also many other
equally absurd proposals, such as sug-
gestions for making soup by machinery,
growing potatoes on barrack roofs in
December and killing whole army corps
of Prussians by post-but they are too
numerous to be mentioned

MILK THE COWS CLEAN.
The strippings Usually Are the Richest
Milk of All.

The strippings Usually Are the Richest
Milk of All.
Divide the milking as done INTO four
equal portions, says c. r. Valentine,
and there will be ten per cent. OF
cream in the first part and forty per
cent in the last. Cows should be
milxed regularly and clean. the strip
pings being the richest milk OF all.
The milk should not be kept any time
in the COW house. 1t would be better
to put IL outside at once, IL 1t cannot
be taken into the dairy Immediately.
The cream, upon being taken into the
dairy, should be strained through
close sieve at once. IL milk was
cooled to a very low temperature i'm
mediately after it was taken from the
COW, it would keep very much longer.
The best position for dairy is quar-
ter under ground, out Of the way of
odors of gas arising from the cow
house and the decomposition OF ma
nure. The windows looking to the
north should be covered with perfo-
rated zinc, and the floor paved with
flags, which should be kept dry. It is
a great mistake TO think, with damp
floor, the milk will keep better; be-
cause the damp tends to the develop
ment of the organic germs which at
tack the milk. Nothing having an Of
fensive odor should be kept in the
dairy, such as onions and parffin oil,
which was sometimes the case IL, in
churning. the butter comes too quick
ly, 1t will be well to add little water
to II. The butter should never come
under twenty-five minutes Cream
should never be completely covered
over.-Prairie Farmer.

gates, at respectful distance behind
the officers, leaning on the handle OF
an ice-chisel. which he either hap
pened to be going to use, or had taken
purposely TO the gate.
Be this as it may, there he stood un-
til the prisoners were being brought
inside the gate; then, without any in
timation of his purpose, he suddenly
sprsng in front of the party and drove
his keen inch-and-a-half chisel clean
through the breast of the first Indian
of the file.
There he said, as he jerked this
frightful weapon out Of the mans
body That blow is for my sister,
Bouchard had been SO secretive in
his determination to deal out summary
Justice that none of the bystanders
had any intimation of his purpose
until too late to arrest his arm. Mr..
Gladman at once ordered his arrest,
and he was marched Off between two
men to the factory's lookup, to be
dealt with later on.
1t so happened that the man whom
Bouchard had killed with his chisel
was the father of the girl Mes-keg
MIS- -hdNItH anu nus SA4C
was left an orphan as she entered the
precincts of the fort.
Mes-keg could hardly be held re-
sponsible for the crimes of her father
and the others of the band, and as she
was a nice, tidy girl she was adopted
into the family of the head watchman
of the factory, and under the guidance
of his wife very rapidly acquired do
mestic habits. Two years after enter
ing the watchman's family her hand
was sought in marriage by John Matt,
a young carpenter of the settlement.
In after years, when their family of
three daughters and one son were
pretty well grown up, Matt and his
wife and children removed to Red
Rock, and, after winter spent there,
finally made their permanent home at
Jackfish bay, Lake Superior, where
the old man died ten years aftcrward
Two of her daughters married well
and went to live with their husbands
at Duluth, MINI. Her remaining
daughter became head housekeeper in
the Northwestern hotel, Port Arthur,
and she herself found a good home
with her son up to the time of her
death last year.
An examination was held in the
Bouchard affair, and under the cir
cumstances his act was held pardon
able, the verdict being ''justifiable
homicide" The three remaining In
dams of the murderers' band were
held prisoners until the arrival of the
governor of the company in the fol-
lowing summer. AT the trial held be-
fore Gov. Sepple and a proper quorum
of commissioned officers, the Indians
were condemned to be hung. This
sentence was duly carried ont on the
first Friday in August, 1890. The
scaffold was erected over the main
gates of the factory, and the execu-
tioner was Bouchard, who volunteered
for the office.
One word in conclusion: The post of
Hanna bay was never reinhabited, the
headquarters OF that particular sec
ton being transferred to Rupert's
house, at the mouth of Rupert river

11pht Cover. for Cisterna.

An unfreezable cistern that has run
ming water can be made by inclosing
with n tight-ftting cover. New
York subscriber has tried cement, but
every winter it breaks up as far as the
frost reaches. He wishes to make a
pond fifteen feet across to contain
running water. Prof. Walter Flint
of the Maine agricultural college, says:
"The only way to make cement cis-
tern that will stand winter weather is
to have n tight cover With running
water and a cover, freezing can be
prevented, and that is the only way to
save a cistern no matter what it is
made of. Freezing will destroy even
q boiler iron tank. The chances are
with a cement cistern, even if the
water is drawn off, the outside frost
will crack the cement. American
