From the Gazette, Dist inst.
Friday evening last the Chinese sec
ton hands at Hay station were in re.
ceipt of visitors of a decidedly unwel-
come character In the early evening
the section house was entered by three
masked men, who threatened with
cooked revolvers, while they relieved the
crowd of SOL in coin and some jewelry.
A shot was fired in the air to brighten
the celestials, who were SO badly scared
that the alarm was not given until the
robbers had made good their escape.
The Gazette is informed by Marshal
Mackay that on Wednesday TWO little
girls, Flossie Smith. aged IA, and her
sister, Myrtle Smith, aged 10, came to
his house and asked to be admitted.
They reported that their step.father had
nut them out of doors and would no
longer keep them. The marshal on the
advice of Mrs. Chapman, took the chill
dren to St. Ignatius hospital, where they
now are. 1t 10 expected that the Ladies
aid society will endeayor to provide for
them in some way.
The directors of the school district of
which Colfax is part, have ordered a
special election to be held on "Wednesday
next, December 26, for the purpose OF
authorizing the directors to continue
the school. This is not an election to
levy a special tax, but simply 30 that
the people may give the directors au-
thority to draw warrants for school ex-
penses to an amount not IN excess OF
the money due the district from this
years delinquent taxes. TIE Gazette

A Remarkable Feat In Surgery Performed
by Paris Physician.
At the Bicetre hospital, in Paris, the
we'll known surgeon, M. Landry, per-
formed curious operation on work
man of Belgian nationality. The Bel
gian, it appears, got drunk and was tax
en- to the police station at GENTLY when
in state of utter helplessness. While he
was in the cells another drunkard me-
chanical engineer named Machant, was
brought in in state bordering on delir-
ium tremens Machsnt was in terribly
excited state, and he attacked his fellow
prisoner with extraordinary ferocity,
striking him, and, horrible to relate,
biting off both his ears
When he came to himself, Machant
became very penitent and asked to be
taken to the bedside of his victim, who
was now in the Bioetre hospital, in or
der to ask his forgiveness. DR.. Landry,
who was there, said:
Should you like to give him back
his ears2"
Certainly, said the man.
'Then, " said the doctor, ''let me cut
couple Of small slips Of flesh from
your arm, and it can be done
The man consented, and the doctor
did as he had suggested. The pieces of
flesh he shaped as we'll as he could to
the likeness of ears and Joined them to
the wounded places According to the
latest accounts, the operation has been
a complete success. London Answers.

The Princess Rad1iYil1.

The Princess Hedwig Radzivill, who
died in Nice few weeks ago, gave up
the opportunity of brilliant life and
marriage to become Sister of Mercy
Until the time of her serious illness she
had been the head Of st. Joseph's hospi-
tai, in Potsdam, Germany. The prin-
cess was a member of the famous Polish
Radziyill family, whose representatives
have obtained high places in Germany,
Austria and Russia. The old Emperor
William fell in love with daughter of
the house, then member of the Prus-
sian court, and for five years resisted
threats and entreaties on the part of his
family in his determination to marry
her. He finally gave in, however, and
married princess of the house of SAKE
Weimar, but never forgot his first love.
His favorite adjutant up to the time of
his death was a Radzivill, the nephew
of the woman who had won his heart.

missing man was not turned up by a
certain time he would select number
of citizens from the community and put
them to death.
People looked uponit as an idle threat,
but the time came, and Mcneil did as he
said he would do. Humphreys father
was one of the men selected and would
have been murdered with the rest had
not his friend, Hiram Smith, volunteered
to take his place in the doomed column
and die in his stead Humphrey was a
married man, and Smith was single, and
on this account permitted himself to be
shot SO that his friend might be spared
to his family. The children of Mr.. Hum
phrey have long intended to erect a mon
ument over the grave of the young hero
who died to spare their father, but the
matter has been put off until now

THE OLDEST TWINS.
Elvira and EImira Fife of Peterboro. n. a,
Are Entitled to the Honor.

Elvira and Elmira Fife of PeterbOro. n. H.
Are Entitled to the Honor.
At Peterboro, N. H, live Elvira and
Elmira Fife, who claim to be and prob
ably are the oldest twins living. Next
August they will be SO. At the age OF
ID they entered the employ of local
manufacturing company, and for 60 years
they remained on its pay roll, the max
imum wages earned being 80 cents pei
day and the minimum II cents for three
days labor.
A Boston Journal reporter recently
visited them.
lis it true you have never ridden on
railroad train?" queried he
cit is, )" was the reply, land, what is
more, " said both in one voice, 1--WE new
er will. Although the Boston and Maine
railroad has run cars within 10 rods of
our door ever since they built the road
into this town, we have never yet enter
ed car. We came pretty near it at one
time. A few years ago some of the
townspeople wished US to take ride in
the cars, and we came so near it that we
went to the depot, but backed out be-
fore we got aboard. :"
Nor have these ladies ever entered
theater, and very rarely did they enter
society, and in all their lives they have
been separated but 20 hours at any one
interval, and when Elvira was taken i'll
and it was for few days thought she
could not recover Elmira was nearly era
zy and threatened to commit suicide if
her sister was taken away.
81 don't wish to live if the old wom-
an, as they always call each other, is
taken away"
The strong resemblance between them
is still as prominent as ever. One great
popularity about these women has been
that, although living in the same house
and eating from the same table, they
have always lived separately-that is,
each has cooked her own meal If one
had a boiled dinner, the other had a
boiled dinner, and it was not cooked in
the same pot either. If one had turkey,
the other would buy little larger one,
and so in everything they wed with
each other to see who would live the
better.

Children Wed In Kentucky.

Sam Hart, aged 10, and Emaline
Franklin, aged ID, were united in mar
riage at the home of the brides father
at Colly, few miles west of this place,
on the evening of the 9Th ult. This
phenomenal wedding breaks the record
in the annals of Letcher's history. New
er has there been a wedding when the
bride and groom were both SO young
since Letcher had been hewed from the
magic hills and peaks of Perry and Har-
Ian counties and united into one bright
and prosperous people. 1t is said that
this young couple looked as children
while they were being united as one.
When the time came for the groom tc

big laugh, which lasted till all was

care of Curtains and Portieres

When any cleaning or sweeping is in
progress, the heavy curtains and por
there's should be removed and after being
thoroughly brushed and shaken should
be allowed to hang in the air until the
rooms are cleaned and ready for their
return. Heavy hangings will absorb the
odor from cigar smoke or from any food
which may be cooking, and the greatest
care should therefore be taken that they
be kept well aired. The doorway cur

INDIAN BARBARITIES.
Trightfu1 Orgies Along the West Coast of
British Columbia.

| Frightfu1 Orgies Along the West Coast OF
British Columbia.
The attention of the department of In
| dian affairs has been called to the bar
barous practices of the Indians along the
west coast of northern British Columbia,
who, it appears, are still indulging in
cannibalism, supposed to have been long
ago given up. II. J. Simpson, trader
who has spent 25 years in the vicinity of
Fort Ruperts, has just arrived here and
states that the Indians carry on their
I dances with all their old time ferocity.
the only difference being that now they
are careful to have their widest orgies
only in the depth of winter, when the in
clemency of the season has practically
put stop to trading and hunting and
has driven all white men, including mis-
sionaries, to move to comfortable quar-
tiers.
So soon as they have the field to them
selves preparations are started for the
most disgusting orgies. Simpson, who,
having married a full blooded ''Klootcb,
man." is what is known as ''squaw.
man." has been specially favored or
trusted by being permitted to witness
some of these rites and gives terri
BILE description of what is known to the
Indians as imam eater dance, which
he witnessed a few months ago. In
this dance the manista or chief char
acter, horrifes the spectators by appear
ing with mummy" or the shriveled
remains of back number native, taken
from an eminence upon which it was
exposed to dry after death, and tearing
the shriveled flesh from the bones as he
dances about a huge log fire, all the
time uttering the most frightful sounds
in the Indian vocabulary of lamentations.
Simpson also lately saw the horrible
torture of maiden in connection with
another dance, in which, to prove herself
worthy to be the bride of brave chief
tain, she allowed great barbed hooks to
be driven through the flesh of her back
and danced almost naked, while the chief
held the reins attached to the hooks and
by series of wrenches eventually tore
the flesh apart and released them. Mis-
sionaries have taken great credit through
out the civilized world for having con-
verified these savages, and the govern.
ment has been led to believe that the
dances now carried on are only imita-
tons of former barbarity, but Simpson,
who is a reliable man, asserts that they
are no mockery at all, but most revolt
ing and cruel reality.-Victoria B. CO.
