Mr.. Tostevin was in the place but
few days when an incident took place
that made his blood run cold and fright.
ened his family so that he was for
short time on the point of tearing up
and moving back into civilization. The
incident was scalp dance on Baptist
hill short distance from his residence,
engaged in by Little Crow and his wild
Sioux Indians. Little Crow and band
had just returned from battle with
oand OF Chippewa indians at Forest
Lake. They had whipped the Chippe
was, killed and scalped one OF them.
This scalp the wild dancers were -four
lshlng frantically on pole. At that
time Little Crow had his camp eStab-
llshed on the West side. He was known
to he d wicked and dangerous chieftain,
and the few whites i'll ST. Paul lived in
fear OF him. But Little Crow came to
of the leaders of the mdSsacres of 1862,
but was finally captured and shot by
the white troops.
MI Tostevin is full of "reminiscences
OF those early days. In speaking of
those times, he said yesterday:
money was loanlng in ST. Paul in
those days at from 8 TO 5 per cent
mouth. People were fiocking to the
place from the East, and there was
constant activity in claim jumping.
The market price of potatoes was $3.50
ouShel; of pork, S45 barrel; of corn
meal, Sl2 a hundred. Hay i'll 1856, cut

All the -four we got came up tine river
on steamboats,, and very commonly the
supply of this article in the city ran
short, and we were compelled to live
without wheat bread. That was III the
days of wildcat money, and l could
relate some very funny experiences set
tiers had on account of the tickleness in
value OF this currency: but the public is
pretty we'll informed Oh that subject.
MIR. and Mrs. Tostevin have had seven
children, three of whom are dead. Three
of the children were born in England
and four in America. James F. Joste-
win. who is engaged in prosperous
cut-stone business in West Superior, Is
the oldest child. Mrs. Margaret Dugan,
wife of Robert l. Dugan, of the Great
Northern. comes next. Mrs. Sibella
Morrison, late wife of James Morrison.
recently the general purchasing agent
of the Great Northern, was the third of
the children born in England. William
Il. ToStevin, who is engaged with his
father i'll the tombstone business in ST.
Paul, is one of the two children born in
Buffalo; the other child born there died
at two years old. Two children were
born iii st. Paul. one of whom died at
thirteen. The other one is Miss Luvenia
TOStevin, who lives with her parents.

IT is claimed for the rain bath that it
Is III every way superior to the method
We have known since civilization he
gan. and this has been proven in many
public institutions. The first one ever
built in America was put in the New

dispensary has them, and SO has the
bathing establishment erected by the
trustees of the Baron Hirsch fund at
Henry and Market streets One of the
largest rain baths in the country is
now in course Of construction in the
state hospital for the insane at Utica,
and it is predicted that within very
few years all prisons and hospitals will
have adopted the system.
The most enthusiastic advocate of
the rain bath is William Paul Gerhard
who has made 4 study of its advan-
tages. In the first place, he says that
1t requires less space in the planning
of Il bath house, it consumes less time
In application, the body Of the bath
does not come in contact with solid
water. the mechanical and tonic effects
OF the descending stream is unqueStion-
able, and cleansing and stimulating ef-
fects are greater than bath tub, less
water is required and no time is lost
in waiting for the filling of tub in
houses where the supply is slow These
are few of the reasons advanced,
and Mr.. Gerhard bases an elaborate
argument upon them, maintaining his
position throughout with a logic that
is convincing and interesting New

Won a nlinexs Defined.

For Frelchman, an Italian, a Span
lard, womanliness in a woman means
personification, in every Individual
case, of those abstract conceptions
which the feminine principle eternally
typities. On the other hand, Nomanli-
ness will consist therefore in q con-
stant, passive charm, the human eX-
preston, as it We're. of the silent allure
n.ent which nature has made. through
out all her orders. the typical attitude
of the feminine. This, SO to put it, is
the physical characteristic. On the
other hand. Womanliness will mean
diviaation of mysteries not seen by
sight, nor apprchended by reason, but
conveyed to woman. instinctiyely, by
her closer contact with the most sacred
and occult operations of nature, and
reacting from her upon man in the
form Of an ethereal stimulant to finer
endeavor, vague, high promise Of
divine rewards. This is the spiritual
characteristic. The Latin is, to both
this physical and this spiritual char
acteristic Of WOmanliness, more sensi-
tive than the Anglo Saxon. Wherefore
it happens that he respects women
Do1n less ana more 1llan The Anglo
Saxon. The notion Of womanliness Of
the Englishman, the American, is more
neutral, has less of either extreme
The element of allurement of charm,
does not count SO much for him
whereby it chances that. from certain
aspects, his civilization is the cleaner.
The spiritual characteristic predomin-
ates over the physical in his ideal. The
womanly woman is the good mother,
the devoted wife, the gentle sister. the
quiet guardian Of the hearth-fire. Yet
she is not so much the holder of those
mysteries Of which we spoke. and thus
her position, while never so low. per-
haps, as it is possible for it to become
with the Latin peoples, is never, either,
in some sense, SO high.-Alihe Gorren
