Wooed forgetfulness in drink For awhile
after he joined them he was drunk all
the time. The Indian punishment for
drunkenness was to put the offender in
Jail and tie him hand and foot to the
floor. The Jail to which 1 refer was a
crude affair, made of unhewn logs
The jail punishment was inflicted on
Houston once when he was in a drunken
stupor In a few hours he partially re-
covered his plight he was furious. There
he was, tied to the jail floor and de
prived of that liberty which, to the char
acter of such men as Houston, is dearer
than life itself. He roared like a bull of
Bashan, but could arouse no one BY
patient exertion he wriggled his wrists
from the thongs that bound them. Then
he got his legs loose. With a stout hicke
Org stick he began the work of demol-
ishing the jail. Beginning at the top he
tore the structure down, log by log It
didn't take long for the exertion to
sober him, as he had not been since join

sober, he began to think about himself
He drank no more for awhile, went to
Texas and carved out an empire.

Kelly Declines the Train
General Kelly, after a consultation
with his friends, declined to take the
train; it would put his men in the
| light of lawbreakers. He could not
conscientiously go on board a stolen
train. This decision was approved by
his men, but he was urged to come by
the relief committee.

tomorrow" said one of the engineers.
but Kelly would not go.
Let us take your sick men back
was urged in vain. Six men, who were
disabled, We're on board. After much
Misunderstanding and cheering, in which tile
women, who went with the train, were
given a rousing reception the train
went back to Council Bluffs, and tire
sick men were taken to the hospitals.
General Kelly issued an order to his
men to be ready at daybreak to break
camp and march back to Council Bluffs.
He issued an appeal to the citizens of
Iowa and Nebraska to aid him with
trains and wagons to transport his
camp equipage and will start across
the country on foot.
AT 10 O'Clock all was quiet in the
camp. The excitement of the day passed
over in Omaha, South Omaha and Coun-
Gil Bluffs and at 1880 the streets were
cleared Of unusual crowds. Appeals
were made during the day, for the pro-
lection OF the railroad property, but
nothing was disturbed. 1t was reported
that Governor Jackson had applied to
General Brooke, Commanding the de-
partment of the Platte, for federal
troops, but General Brooke denied that
any such request had been made. There
lis still much feeling and Kelly,s re-
turn to Council Bluffs may awaken
another storm.

Slave Wives of Alaska.

Cincinnati Enquirer.
United States Marshal Orville T
Porter, of the Alaska district, has
set several communities in that
territory by the ears. The
white men lawfully married to
women of their own race in Alaska
are confined principally to the
handful Of government officials
and navy men stationed there.
Nearly all of the balance Of the
male population have purchased
native wives, their union with
whom is not recognized in law.
Nearly every grand jury which
convenes in Alaska Is introduced
from the bench to inquire into this
alleged evil and indict all violators
Of the law. This charge is, however,
generally a dead letter, as the
average Alaska grand jury man is
adverse against bringing in true
bill against himself. The steamer
Topeka, which arrived from the
north tonight, however, brings in
formation that Marshal Porter has
just instructed his deputies
throughout the territory to al
once arrest every white man vic.
lating the law, as result of which
official order nearly every man or
board the Uuited States steamer
| is in Jail at Sitka, Hundreds OF
other arrests are expected. The
jails will not be large enough tC
hold the leading citizens who are
amendable under Marshal POrter's
| official order.

Pertinent and Apt Inscriptions.

1eTIlueut anu Apt ihsCtipIAOuS'
New York Herald:
1t is quite an interesting thing
to learn that some of our best
known proverbs and notices were
originally used in connection with
sun dials. Before the days of
watches and clocks, when dials and
sun marks were among the rude
means of reckoning time, it was
a prevailing custom to inscribe
them.
Among the maxims traceable to
this source are, snake hay while
the sun Shines" "The longest day
must end" and "All things do wax
and wane."
Sun dials spoke the truth, as
may be inferred from a historic
one which was placed on st. Paul's
cross, in London, and which pro-
claimed, 81 number none but sun
ny hours" This no one will doubt
who has had occasion to consult a
dial on an overcast day.
A famous dial in Sussex, Eng
land, bore four famous notices
applicable to the flight Of time and
the brevity of life. They were as
follows: -" After darkness, light"
"Alas how swift !" 81 warn whilst
1 move" and $50 passes life"

PLAIN POINTERS

WRITTEN FOR THE LIGHT, BY OBSERVER
Before election it is-just to
serve his country; after being
elected, it is-to divide the spoils
and boss the people.
Beware of your confidential
friends, they are very often the di-
rect cause OF sorrow and unhappi-
ness.
The politician who dislikes taffy
is about as rare a curiosity as the
patriotic office seeker who is not
anxious ''to serve his fellow-men."
Some people are known by their
deeds, but most of them by their
misdeeds.
When your friends become sc
friendly as to tell you somebody's
secrets, you may safely expect
that he will tell your secrets tC
everybody.
The most desirable find for some
people is to find fault in somebody
| else.
Some people strive for wealth
not for the pleasure Of what mon
ey can buy, but for the pleasure
of being wealthier than their un
successful fellow-men.
To preach is human; but t.
! practice is divine.
