and the chinchilla CLOAK seemed far away in
the dim perspectiye-to Smith. But with
Smiths wife it was still in the immediate fore
ground. In looking over his copy Of The
TIMES one day Smith struck on the following
paragraphs;
New YoRK. Nov. -. 1S94.-Theres seems TO be
no prospect for settling the cloakmakers'
strike. and manufacturers are unable TO sup
ply demands made upon them by the jobbers.
He read like one inspired. He took it home
that night and showed it to Mrs. Smith.
You see, my DEAR he said, 1.-THE cloak
makers strike has put the price of that chin
chilla garment far above our reach"
Mrs. Smith seemed to accept the logic of
the situation and said nothing Smith s
dreams that night we're unmixed with chin
chiTla. The matter was not referred to at
breakfast, and Smith did his days work with
the air Of a man freed from terrible bur-
den.
When he got home Mrs. Smith greeted him
with pretty little smile and a sweet little
kiss.

said. land l remembered what you said
about those dreadful strikers ard how the
strike put up the price on cloaks. So went

cured them after they had been given up 20
die, and that IL IL had not been for him they

all positions Of prominence, and nearly all
sections Of the country. The testimony OF
one Is The ~sestimony Of all, proving his al
most supernatural power in curing the sick,
and that his practice girdles the world.
DIR. Flower has established congress or
stun Of physicians, and is locating a pbysi-
clan In every state in the union. These stan
physicians are the most skilled and able men
regardless Of their SCHOOL,. These stan
physicians examine patients, arrange for their
treatment and send written diagnosis Of
each ease TO him. From that time on they
are under his care. the same as il the doctor
had personally examined them himself. Thus

Insanity of Plants.

years Of insanity, and on the other
hand sudden departures from rule
among orchids which would indicate

A Big Gunpowder Explosion.

The mightiest Of gunpowder blasts
in connection with railway works, if
not the very greatest blast ever ex-
ploded, was that by which Sir Will
liam Cubitt blew away, with one
charge of 10000 pounds Of gum
powder, the entire mass Of the Round
Down Cliff, which rose to the height
OF $50 feet above the level of the sea
within few miles of Dover. This
monster blast, fired by galvanic elec-
tricity at several points instantane-
ously, at once heayed off from the
cliffs mass Of more than a million
tons of chalk, which rolled down
upon the beach, the dslodged stuff
covering space of fifteen acres,
which may still be seen by the trav-
eler along the Southeastern Railway.
stretching towards the sea near
the western base of the WELL
known Shakespeare Cliff. By means
of q similar blast on the Londonderry
& Coleraine Railway, a hill was
thrown into the sea by charge Of
5000 pounds of powder, and 10000
tons Of material were thus instantan-
eously removed from the line Of the
works. Tid-Bits.

A Lost People.

A lady whose home is in the south
Of France writes of visit she made
recently to an island on the coast Of
Brittany. Those of you who have
read the story of King Arthur and
his knights will remember that they
started out over the sea in pursuit of
the dragon.
In this-the Morbihan Sea-is a
little island which can be reached
from the mainland only when the
water is smooth. The sole inhabi-
tant is Breton shepherd, who lives
in little hut and spends his time in
caring for his sheep. The party
landed and were met by the kind
faced old man, who led them over the
grassy slope where his flock was feed
ing, and showed them the way around
a hill, on the east side OF which they
found the entrance TO tunnel, says
Goldthwaite' Magazine.
This extended some distance, and
its floor, sides and roof were made of
immense fiat pieces Of stone, covered
with hieroglyphics and figures,
looking somewhat like wreaths, and
again like coiled serpents." At the
end Of this tunnel was hall, also
loored, rooted and walled with the
same curious stones, and in the CEN
ire was an altar and a stone upon
which it is thought that human sac
rifices have been offered.
The strangest part Of all is that no
stones or rocks like those used in this
tunnel can be found on the island,
and at no place nearer than 100 miles
inland. Who brought them? How
did they come? There is no record
left-at least none has been found,
to tell who these people were, or any
thing about them.
They must have lived many GEN.
turies, but have vanished entirely,
yet their work is as perfect apparent
ly as when first built.
1t is thought that they may have
been Druids, who came here when
they left Great Britain others, again,
think that they were ~orshippers of
the serpent god called Hoa. But it
is conjecture. All we know is that
the stones are here, strangely carved,
skillfully put together, but of their
builders there is no trace.

INDIANS IN WAR.
There Are 2 800 Pensioners in In.
dian Territory.

1t is n fact probably unknown to a
majority Of people that there are
more than 2,3OO pensioners Of the
civil war in Indian Territory, exclu-
sive Of oklahoma, and that the
amount paid them last year was
$3l2, 900, the sum contributed resi-
dents OF Oklahoma in the same year
being $623, OCO.
At the beginning Of the civil war,
it seems to have been the opinion of
many persons that on account of the
generally warlike character Of Amer
icanIndians they were well qualified to
take an active part in the contest
In May, 1861, the Confederate Con-
gress adopted resolution including
the whole of the present Indian Ter
ritory and Oklahoma, too, with the
confederacy, and, especially among
the Cherokees, there were many re-
cruts from the Indian tribes to the
Southern army, but they maintained
an independent organization and cut
actually very little figure in the fight.
The War Department., at the begin
ming OF the war, appeared to attach
great Importance to the Indians as
auxil.aries OF the Union forces, and
considerable effort was given to assist
in their organization, but without
very much success. The tota! num-
ber OF Indians enlisted on the North
ern side between the years 1861 and
1865 was 3, $50, but considerably
larger number served on the other
side, and offset the efforts OF those
who were Cnionists, or, rather, who
attached themselves to the Union
side, for the knowledge OF the issues
involved In the war Of the rebellion
we're at no time very clearly under
stood by any of the Indians, and some
instances are well authenticated in
which Indian troops fought during
the war on both sides, alternately.
1t seems strange in this day that
capable military leaders, skilled in the
geographical position of the border
States in which the battle was to be
begun, if not decided, should have
fallen into the error Of supposing that
in country capable of furnishing
more than three million competents,
handful Of semi-savage aborigines
practically restricted to the plains OF
the West, could be formidable factor
in conflict SO extensive, but the fact
must be recalled that the only mill
tary traditions which were possessed
by many States and territories be-
yond the Mississippi related to prev
ious conflicts with Indians. They
were the only hostile force which the
local militia, where there was any,
had known, and the part which they
sere popularity supposed to have
taken in the Revolutionary war
seemed to qualify them for active
service in withstanding the move
ments of Southern troops in the
Southwest.
The present population OF the In
dian Territory, since the establish
ment of Oklahoma in 1890, is less
than 100, 600. II New York sun.

MIR. GIadstone's Energy.

The physical and mental energy
displayed by Mr. Gladstone, while
conducting the Home Rule Bill
through the House of Commons, was
marvellous, considering that he is ~
years old, and has for several years
been under the orders OF his physi-
clan. says London paper:
In conducting the Home Rule Bill
through committee he displayed al
most a spirit OF monopoly in regard
TO the speech-making. There was
scarcely a clause, a line, or word
whose entire defence he would in
trust to his lieutenants.
Night after night he sat through
long hours, answering every amend
ment in st lngS OF little dazzling
speechletS, soon breaSing through the
doctors rule OF retiring from the de-
bate ut 9 O'Clock, and at the end OF
the session more persistent in at
tendance than any or his colleagues.
Never-we can say without fear Of
contradiction-has he reached TO a
higher level OF sustained eloquence
than during this session.
Whether we take his great speeches
on the first, second, and third read
ings of the Home Rule Bill, his hun
dred and one little constitutional dis
courses in committee, his innumera-
ble displays OF wit and Argument in
tn personal combats with Mr.. Cham
berlain, or last but not least. his

questions like the opium trailic and
