Buffalo Bills Great show Imparts-A
A Splendid Two fold Lesson.

Buffalo Bill's Great Show Imparts-A
A Splendid Two-fold Lesson.
The announcement that Buffalo
Bills Wild West is soon to be seen
here is one that is pregnant with,inter-
est to every reader. 1t is a number of
years since this exhibition has been
seen here, during which time it has
been seen in every capital in Europe,
and has been the local point of interest
at the Worlds Fairs in London, Paris,
and at the Columbian Exhibition in
Chicago.
Naturally with the expert manage
ment and mature judgment of Mr.. Nate
Salisbury, this great educational exhi-
bition has grown in Importance and in
terest in those years when ii has
voyaged in foreign lands. To-day it is
two-fold lesson to its visitors.
First, it presents the fast vanishing
episodes of the plains, with its thrill
ing and fascinating pictures of life on
the frontier, illustrating wildly the
events which attended the settlement
of this great country from ocean TO
ocean, and from gulf to gulf. II is the
height of realistic achievement in that
IT Is history, illustrated by the actors
who made that history. Mimicry there
is none-it is from start to finish the
real story told by the hero of the tale
Second, there has now been made a
part, and one which rounds out and
completes the value of the subject, a
Congress Of the Rough Riders of the
World. This illustrates also by the aid
of the real people the science of equi
tation, as practlced in the great stand
ing armies Of France, England, Ger
many and Russia, and the flying squad
rons Of the irregular cavalry Of the
Bedouins and the Tartars, while the
Gaucho from the pampas Of the South
American continent vies in skill with
the cowboy Of the plain and the Indian
and the Mexican.
Both in fascinating interest, excite.
ment entertainment and educational
value, this is the most novel exhihi,
tion ever presented. The accuracy,
perfection and prestige of this grea
exhibit is guaranteed by the co opera
ton of Col. Cody, Nate Salisbury, ant
that experienced public amusemen

How the Sunfish Makes Its Own Hatcher
for Matching Its Spawn.

New York Sun.
An example Of intelligence mot in
stinctl of class OF fish which has
come under my observation during my
excursions into the Adirondack region
of New York State may possibly be OF
interest to your readers, especially as
! know of no one, save myself, who
has noticed it, or, at least, has given
it publicity.
The female sunfish makes "hatch-
cry" for her eggs in this wise Select
ing spot near the shores of the
numerous lakes in which this egion
abounds, and where the water is about
inches deep and still, she builds with
her tail aud snout circular embauk-
ment Of sand inches in height ands2
thick. The circle, which is as perfect
a one as could be formed with math-
ematical instruments, is usually a foot
and half in diameter, and at one side
of this circular wall an opening is left
by the fish of Just sufficient width to
admit her body.
The mother sunfish, having now
built or provided her Hatchery, de-
posits her spawn within the circular
enclosure and mounts guard at the en-
trance until the fry are Matched out
and are sufficiently large to take charge
of themselves; this being necessary
to defend the spawn from other fish
using it as an article of diet. AS the
circular embankment, moreover, is
built up to the surface of the water, no
enemy can very easily obtain an en-
trance within the enclosure from the
top; while, there being only one en-
trance, the mother fish is able with
comparative ease, to keep out all in
truders.
have, as / say, noticed this ex-
quisite intelligence of the sunfish for
the perpetuity Of her species more
particularly among the lakes Of the
Adirondack region; but doubtless the
same habit is common to these fish
in other waters.

HONEST DEALING REWARDED.
A Fakir who Made Money by Taking the
sa Public Into His Confidence.


KS, Public Into His Confidence.
Boston Herald.
Gentlemen, said the street fakir,
as he arranged his bottles on the table
before him, 81 did not come here to lie
and deceive and rob you of your hard,
earned dollars. | have stuck to the.
truth all my life, and, though that is
the reason l am poor man, l shall
continue to speak the truth to the end
of my days.
The crowd had been coldly surveying
his preparations, but began to warm up
little over his address.
81 might say to you," he went on,
as he held up one Of the bottles, in
loving way, between his eye and the
sun, "that this medicine was dis
covered by celebrated medicine man
of the Sioux tribe Of Indians, but why
deceive you? 1t is remedy entirely
unknown to the Indians. 1t is my own
discovery, and | never saw an Indian
in my life"
The crowd increased in number and
began to press closer.
II could tell you that this compound
would cure Bright's disease, and in 10
minutes every bottle would be sold;
but could / sleep tonight with the
weight of SO much deception on my
conscience. How could | ever again
look an honest man in the face after
telling such falsehood? 1t will not
cure Bright's disease--it would even
hasten the end of victims of that
baleful complaint.
There were now 100 men in front Of
the fakir, and at least half of them had
their hands in their pockets in search
of money.
81 could say that it was a pain
killer" continued the man, as no
brought out more bottles from an old
satchel. "But an accusing voice would
be whispering in my ear forever more.
You might rub barrel of it on you
and it would not affect a pain. miss
the sales of at least 80 bottles because
tell you the truth--but it must be
so. +"
"Gimme a bottlen' shouted
dozen men in chorus, as they held up
their one-dollar bills.
"No, gentlemen-not yet. | will
neither deceive you nor allow you to
deceive yourselves. You are an honest;
confiding people, and | might tell you
that this discovery would stop a head,
ache in five minutes, and you would
believe me and hand up your money.
liz VIII not cure neaQacne. even
declare that it would make one ten
times worse"
The number of men who now wanted
a bottle was at least 20, but the fakin
waved them aside and said
wait a minute. The discovery
will not cure consumption after one
lung is gone. 1t will not cure catarrh
after the disease has firm hold on the
bronchial tubes. After both kidneys
have wasted away it is no use to take
it. 1t simply purifies the blood, and
thus"
"Gimme bottle Gimme bottle !"
yelled so men as they pressed forward,
and in less than 10 minutes the last
one had been sold-and the fakir had
the money in his pocket.
AS we went down on the train to
Nashville that afternoon together l
asked: after you have mixed water,
molasses and alcohol together, do you
add anything else?"
. Yes, cayenne pepper, to make it
bite, and the solemn truth, to make it
SELL" he solemnly replied, as he took
out his wad of bills and spread them on
his knee and started out to find the
| sum total.
