INDIANS CAN HIDE.

One of Them Gives an Exhibition OF skill
Suggestive of Dime Novels.
The wonderful skill with which the
Indian can hide himself in the open
prairie is often referred to. In book
on Indian life, particularly among the
Apaches, an incident of this is given.
The writer says that while crossing the
prairie with his guide, an Apache
named Quick Killer, the latter offered
to show how it is possible for an In
dian to accomplish the hiding even
when there is apparently nowhere to
hide.
The offer was accepted, and the
traveller was told to walk forward a
few steps and stop when he was told.
He had hardly taken ten steps when
Quick Killer called and announced that
he was ready to be found.
There was a little bush near, the
only break in the prairie about, and to
this the traveller returned. Quoting
his own words: II went round it three
or four times and looked in every di-
rection, but the prairie was smooth and
unbrolsen. 1t seemed as if the earth
had opened and swallow ed up the man.

surprise he rose, laughing and rejoiced,
within two feet of the position 1 then
occupied.
with incredible skill and activity
he had completely buried himself under
the thick grass. within six feet of the
bush, and had covered himself with
such dexterity that one might have
trodden upon him without discovering
his person.

THE FORMIDABLE OSTRICH.

It Can Kick Harder Than q Mule and L.
Hard Fighter.
would like to know the name of
the man who originated the falsehood
that the ostrich, when pursued by his
enemies, sticks his head in the sand.
The man never saw an ostrich, or
when he did, he and not the bird stuck
his head in the sand, for, weight for
age, an ostrich could give that particu-
lar brand of man about ten stone and
beating.
An ostrich that has not been brought
up on the bottle, or dosed with pare
Roric, will stand eig hit feet high when
he has done growing and weigh three
hundred pounds.
He can kick harder than a mule
travel faster than horse and grow fat
on food at which a goat would elevate
his nose.
1t is more difficult to make his &C
quaintance now than it used to be a
few years ago, for he has been taught
by experience to look upon man as an
enemy.
He takes no pride in his feathers,
but he does not want to lose them,
being accustomed to them and know.
ing that they are useful in keeping of
the dew, or, at least, counteracting its
effect.
He is dangerous bird when driven
into a corner, as he uses his feet with
great dexterity. and if he plants them
on man, anywhere between his collar
button and the wristband. the mans
relatives always claim the insurance
money, if there's any on him.-Blaek

MAY PROVE ENeLAND's LOSS

The Smart Money Exacted From Nfcara-
qua Likely to Hurt British Commerce In
Central America.
MANAGUA, Nicaragua, via Galveston,
Tex, May 1O.-There is no longer any
doubt that Great Britain viii receive
her smart money on time. The
Els, 500 to be paid by Nicara-
qua to Great Britain has been
raised here by popular donations.
Three German mercantile firms gave
about e., 200, and the whole amount
will be ready to be paid in London in
q few days. The raising of the money,
however, has only increased popular
feeling in Nicaragua against the
British. and the feeling is now very
bitter indeed, more so than when the
British landed at Corinto. The gen.
eral opinion seems to be that
the Central American republics
will form a combination, possibly
secret, against Great Britain, and
that everything possible will be done
to exclude British goods from Central
America. This feeling will probably
result in commercial gain to the
United States. There is no doubt,
however, that the action of the Ger
man firms in subscribing so literally
to the indemnity fund will prove a
good stroke of business to them.

THE DELICIOUS LOBSTER.


It ls Not Altogether an Easy Matter to Fish
for Them.
A mature lobster is not small or
harmless looking by any means. With
out the claws, an old fellow should
measure from one to two feet in length,
and will weigh altogether from five to
fifteen pounds. Smaller ones are caught
more frequently than larger ones, es-
pecially since the competition has be-
come so fierce as to reduce the num-
bers and size all along the New En-
land coast. Occasionally an old-timeI
is caught-one that weighs as high as
twenty-five pounds Such a monster
struggle is sometimes experienced be-
fore the creature is landed safely.
The claws of a large lobster are power
full enough to crack the she'll OF a
clam or to snap off q mans finger. In
stances are on record here where fin
gers have been thus nipped off, and
where severe injuries have been in
hicted on hands and arms. The fisher
men are consequently very cautious
when they land a big lobster, and take
particular pains to see that he is we'll
secured before taking him out of the
trap.
According to the fishermen here, the
lobster sheds his shell for the first
time when he is about five years old,
but no one seems to be able to tell
how often after that the shedding &C.
ours. The young Holsters, a few inches
in length, have very little power tc
themselves, and they generally seek
refuge under their mothers shell when
danger approaches. If startled by
enemies when away from their mother,
they will run into conch shells
or other places of refuge. The parent
lobster shows the same maternal in
stincts, noticeable in all living crea-
lures. If her young are pursued by
enemies, she is pretty sure to enter
into the race also. Her powers of loco
motion are pretty good at such times
and her fighting abilities of no mean
order. Very few fish or shell creatures
can Withstand her onslaughts or give
effective battle to her. One stroke of
her powerful claws will suffice most
enemies. The food of Holsters consists
for the most part of clans, mussels,
founders, sculpin and other fish that
get within their reach. They seize
these creatures with their strong an
terror claws, and hold them up to the
mouth while the substance is slowly
sucked i'm. Y. Post.

WASHINGTON, May 1O.-The president
has denied the petition for pardon of
William Chase, who was recently con-
victed of publishing libel against c.
Fl. ]. Taylor. recorder of deeds of the
District OF Columbia. Both Chase and
Taylor are colored, and the conviction
and sentence of Chase to ninety days
imprisonment in the United States
Jail was the outcome of bitter fac
tional controversy, which was started
here on the appointment of Taylor, a
nonresident, nearly two years ago.
The president Endorsed on the petit.
ton the following:
1T is conceded that this convict ma.
liciously published an outrageous libel
in a newspaper which he controlled
and used in this instance. at least. as
dirty weapon to satisfy his personal
rage and revenge. This crime is
most detestable one. It has become sc
common and is so seldom punished
that 1 can not reconcile executive
slemency in the case here presented
with the duty own to decent jour
nalism, the peace of society and the
protection of those constantly sub
iected to libelous attacks

reer as an Engineer.

WASHINGTON, May 10.-The retire.
ment to-day from active service of
Brighten. Thomas L. Casey, chief of
engineers, which office he has held
since 1883, possesses more than passing
interest to the general public because
of the great public works that have
been completed under his direction.
Gen. Casey was born in New York,
his father, Gen. Silas Casey. being a
distinguished army officer. He was
graduated from the West Point mill.

head of the class, which included
among its members such men as Henry

naparte, Peter T. Swaine, Alexander
D. McCook and George Crook.
With the exception of two years
service as assistant engineer in the
construction of Fort Delaware, he was
attached to the West Point academy
as instructor of engineering. leaving
there as lieutenant in 1859 to take
command of engineer troops in Wash
ington territory.
When the civil war broke out he was
appointed assistant engineer on the
staff of the general commanding the
department of Virginia. In August.
intending engineer in charge of the
permanent defenses and Notifications
on the coast of Maine and on recruit
ing service for engineer troops, which
duty he performed until 1866.
In the meantime he was engaged on
special duty with the North Atlantic
squadron during the first expedition to
Fort Fisher, N. c., and as a member OF
a special board Of engin GERS for work
at Willet's Point, N. Y, and for work
on forts in Maine, since abandoned.
During the war he was promoted to

grounds at Washington, a position he
retained until 1888, period marked
by many improvements in public
buildings, parks and avenues of the
capital. The fine building occupied
by the state, war and navy depart
ments was constructed under his super
vision. and the Washington monu.
ment, which. for q generation had re
manned a broken marble shaft, was
finished under his direction in 1884.
In 1874 he was advanced to ieuten-
ant colonel, and in 1884 to colonel.

THE TREATY OF PEACE

Between Japan and China Exchanged Mt
Che-Foo-Japan Rellnquishes Lao Tung.
But Does So with Proviso that Suit
able Indemnity Shall be Paid. and. 1t May
be. After . Term of Years.
WASHINGTON, May 10.-An official
dispatch from Toxic. received at the.
Japanese legation yesterday afternoon,
states that the Publications of the
treaty of peace between Japan and
China were exchanged at Che-Foo on
Wednesday. It is understood that no
change was made in the text of the
treaty as originally concluded, but
that taking into account the recon-
mendations made by Russia, Germany
and France, the Japanese government
has agreed to renounce the permanent
possession of the Lilac Tung peninsula,
on condition, however, that the ar
rangements regarding the form and
the terms of the remuneration shall be
reserved for adjustment between it
self and the government of China.
This latter stipulation is construed
to mean that Japan will not surrender
the peninsula until a suitable indem-
nifty shall have been paid. and that it
may even be agreed between Japan
dhu SAAho GuoC Vic POSoCSSiOA Va " y
Arthur itself will be retained for a
term of years extending beyond the
date when the indemnity shall have
been paid in full, thus guaranteeing to
Japan not alone the payment of the
indemnity itself but also sufficient
time to safeguard itself against any
thing like a war of reprisal.
The treaty of peace itself provides
that Wei-Hai-Wei shall be held until
the first 500, 900, 900 taels and the next
two annual installments of the in
demnity have been paid, SO that with
the added guarantee of the possession
of Port Arthur, even although only
temporary, the japanese government
appears to have taken every possible
precaution for the future.
The facts would thus seem to be ex-
actly as reported in United Press dis
patches from time to time ever since
the peace negotiations were entered
upon, and effectually dispose of the
numberless canards sent out by Reu-
ter's agency and Shanghai correspond
ents circulated by the European press.

present common meaning through a
