SHAKER INDIANS,

| The Indians of this county have<just
closed religious revival, and have
left for Pacific County, where they will
endeavor to rekindle religious spirit
among the tribes there. Their religion
is very unique, strikingly original and
distinctly Indian. 1t is known as the
Shaker religion. 1t is said that ii
first originated in the Sound country.
among the Mud Bay Indians.
The story is that one of the tribe.
John Slocum. was taken sick and
gradually wasted away and died.
Preparations were made for his funeral
but John surprised his friends by
coming to life again the day the funer-
al was to be held. He stated that he
had gone to heaven. but that he was
told to go back to earth again and
help his people: that they were very
wicked, and that he must help them.
His recovery was very rapid. and he
at once started this new sect 1t for

England,s OrIentnI Interests.

England is as anxious to end the
war with China and Japan as she was
to stop the civil war of the United
States, and for exactly the same rea-
son-her own interests are injured by
the timidity war creates in commerce.
She was willing todestroy this Repub-
lie to get her cotton, and she is will
ing now to rob Japan of her we'll
earned rights to settle the Chinese war
in her own way. The treaty ports are
of more importance to England than
any questions of equity between COM
batants. 1t is not surprising that
England should seek her own advant-
age now as she sought it at our eX-
pense then. But it is surprising that
the Governments the United States
should not realize the real state of the
case.-Chicago Herald.

THE WRITING WOMAN.
A Delightful Comparative Study with
the Writing Man.

When man writes he wants pomI
and circumstance and eternal space on
which to draw. If he writes at home
he needs a study OF library, and he
wants the key lost and the keyhole
pasted over so that nobody can dis
turb him. His finished products are OF
much Importance to him, and, for a
time, he wonders why the planets have
not changed their orbits or the sun
shine acquired new brilliancy because
he has written something by cast
iron method.
a woman picks up some scraps of a
copy-book or the back of a pattern,
shaI'pens her pencil with the scissors
or gnaws the end sharper. She takes
an old geography, tucks her foot un-
der, sucks her pencil periodically, and
produces literature.
She can write with Genevieve pound

Antiuuity of LAWYERS.

The profession of law is as ancient
as society. and the more enlightened
the society the more necessary and
honorable the profession. When Dean
Swift called the law a bottomless pit,
a cormorant, a harpy that devours
every thing. he was more witty than
wise. Society would be a bottomless
pit, and the harpy of anarchy would
devour everything without it. We
are in the habit of pointing back TO
the thirteenth century or to the time of
Edward l, as the age when the pro-
fession first appeared. The advocate
was known in Roman Jurisprudence.
The eloquent Cicero won his first re-
nown as an orator in the defense of
Roscius, the great tragedian, against
Sylla. the Dictator of Rome. Here
Cicero met such famous advocates as
Gotta and Hortensius. These men
were pleaders at the bar Far back
of this time, however, even 400 B. c..
Eschines and Demosthenes were ad-
vocates and pleaders at the bar of
Athens. Before this golden age of At
tic eloquence mention is made in
Daniel of the Babylonian governors,
judges, sheriffs and counsellors, and
!, 200 B. C. profession of counsellor
was known. Chicago Tribune.
