Memorized the Words.

OF the use of Spanish in the public
schools, George Atkinson in the Gala.
basas, tells of an experience of his own.
At Calabasas few years ago as one OF
the Trustees he visited the school or
the last day. All the children were
Mexicans, and he wanted to see how
the laws of the Territory, that all
children should be taught English, was
working. He was astonished and
pleased at their progress. They could
take up a reader and go through their
exercises with the utmost correctness.
And spell-they could spell the words
with precision and correctness. His
pleasure gave way, however, when he
found that they were no better in
practical English than before. Their
requirement was only parrot Eng
lish. They would say the words, OF
spell them, but had little or no idea OF
their significance. 'There is one thing
sure, says Mr.. Atkinson ''they ought
to learn English, but they haven't got
the right way yet. In Calabasas dis.
trict $4,000 has been expended on the
school, and yet there is only one Next
can boy there who can speak English. "

Across the YaGui Country.

Charles T. Naylor, an American
prospector, left the city of Chihuahua,
Mexico, eight months ago for a trip
across the Sierra Mad1e Mountains and
through the wild and dangerous coun-
try inhabited by the Yaqui Indians.
His trip was made in the search of
silver and gold, and was the most des-
perate undertaking imaginable. Mr..
MAYORS route from chihuahua was by
way of Tomochic, the town which was
entirely depopulated in an attack
made upon the inhabitants over year
ago by Mexican troops, who mastered
the men, women. and children.
Mr.. Naylor states that in the noun
tains west of the fated town he came
upon band of about 200 Tomochic
braves who had an almost impenetra-
BILE rendezvous upon which all attacks
OF Mexican soldiers had proved futile.
Upon observing that Mr.. Naylor was
an American bent upon peaceable
mission, he was well received. He
spent two weeks with the Tomochics
and then entered the Yaqui country.
1t was there that he met with difficult
ties. He was captured by a band of
Yaquis and held prisoner several days
pending decision from the chief as to
what disposition should be made of
him. After several solemn councils
by the chief with the other prominent
members of the tribe, Mr.. Naylor was
placed upon horse and with two
wounded Indians as guards was started
across the country toward the west.
He passed through number of vii
lagos and was never permitted to tar
ry longer than one night at O single
place.
At the western confines of the YaGui
country his guards left him and he
made his way with great difficulty
across the mountains to Hermosillo.
Mr.. Naylor tells some marvellous sto-
ries of the mineral richness of the
Yaqui country and states that the
number of members of the Yaqui tribe
has been greatly underestimated. He
claims to have seen fully 5000 armed
braves. Some Of the Indian towns
contain handsome chapels and build
ings, all of Aztec architecture. Mr..
Naylor is the first white man that is
known to have crossed the Yaqui
country. There have been numerous
attempts made, but the Yaquis always
interfered. This is the only tribe in
Mexico which has never been con-
quered.-Chicago Times.

Titled ExecutiOners.

That the degree of NJ. D. should
ever have been conferred upon man
or men solely on account of his OF
their proficiency in cutting off human
heads sounds highly improbable, but
it is an historic fact that such an
honor was once actually accorded to
two executioners at Stuttgart. A
sword kept at the museum at this
place has this queer legend or inscrip.
ton engraved upon the blade: edo
no wrong and no harm will betide
thee"
This is the implement of death that
was successfully used by four brothers,
Marcus, Jakob, Andreas aud Johann
Bicknell, four hardened Williams who
occupied the chair" as chief execu-
toner at Stuttgart, the old royal resi-
| dence and metropolis of Wurtemburg,
between the years 1860 and 1861. The
instrument, which is a clumsy but
horrid looking affair, is said to have
done death to no fewer than 315
criminals during the reign of the
brothers Bicknell alone In the year
1850 the Emperor Ferdinand happened
to arrive in Stuttgart at the moment
when two culprits were being led to
the block. which stood upon what was
known as the Cheese circular in
closure of boards filed in with earth.
The Emperor watched every detail OF
the execution, which was performed
by the two oldest of the Bickneu
brothers, Marcus and Jakob, and lie
said to have been "highly pleased. "
In fact, he must have been really de-
lighted with the artistic manner with
which the duty was discharged, for we
are told that she then and there con,
ferred upon the brothers the title OF
Doctor, and from that moment they
were authorized and empowered tc
practice as physicians and surgeons tc
the best of their abilities. st. Louis

Cut or the SDy's Ears.

The following is an inciden: of the
troubles between Spain and the native
Moors in the Murilla district: A pa
troll of a Spanish band caught Moor
in Spanish territory, and, before the
captain heard of the capture, cut of
the mans ears. 1t turned out, how
ever, that the Moor was spy in the
pay of the Spaniards, duly provided
with safe conduct, and when he
reached the fort his outcry as ainst the
outrage to which he had been subject
ed produced great effect. He could
never return, he said, to his country,
for the very women would ask him
where were his ears that had heard
news IN his own country which he had
carried to the enemies of his people.
He had abandoned country where
the inhabitants mutilated the dead,
and was now among q people who mu-
tllated the living. When Marshal
Campos heard of the affair he ordered
a court martial to be held. A member
of the band named Jose Ferreau Riera
confessed that he had cut off the ears
Jose had some time before escaped in
to Moorish territory and taken refuge
at the house of the spy, who had,
however, given him up to the Spanish
authorities. York Ledger.

Cultivation of the Rubber Tree.

From time to time the subject of the
cultivation of the rubber tree receives
the attention of the press of this and
other countries, and the wonder is ex-
pressed why such an experiment is
never carried to a successful COM
pletion, sage Hardware. It has been
attempted even in the United States,
for this Government took pains, fifty
or sixty years ago, to plant some trees
in Florida, and those trees may be
there yet, but SO far as financial re-
suits are concerned, it is hardly prob
able that ten cents in revenue from
them was ever received. Scientific
men from the Kew Gardens have taken
money given them out of the Queen s
Treasury to investigate the subject,
and after elaborate reports of what
could be done, the whole matter has
fallen into neglect.
Amazon yet unexplored, are SO large
that all the New England States could
be thrown into half dozen spots,
turned around, and yet there would
be plenty OF room to spare. In view
of this plenty, it is almost as absurd
to cultivate rubber as it would be to
rig up an Atlantic or Pacific Ocean
over again for the sake of getting
more sea water. What is true of the
Amazon region is true of Assam, Mo-
zambique, Central and Western Africa
and Central America.
Then the expense of cultivation is
factor. The rubber tree has to be
nearly twenty-five years old before it
can be tapped, and has also to have
climate ranging from seventy to ninety
degrees, and where it rains every day
in the year. Those are the requisites
for the best rubber. Think of the ex-
pense account of growing a rubber
grove. There is also the capital and
interest account. Every dollar spent
in planting would be four before the
tree came TO maturity, the interest ac-
count making that value readily. The
loss of trees is also very large. New

A Modern Robinson Crus0e.

The Yomiuri tells us of a Mr.. Wada
Heihachi of Tokushima-ken, who is
likely to have very poor time of it
this winter. He started last summer
with the intention of settling in Hok
kaido, but on arriving at Hakodate
persuaded the captain of H. l. J. NJ.
S. Iwaki to take him on a surveying
expedition to the kuriles, and to leave
him on an uninhabited island quite to
the north OF the kuriles. Here he de-
termined to settle, in spite of all ex-
postulations. AS he had only few
thin clothes and three sacks of cleaned
rice it is feared that he will fare very
badly. in spite of his intention of sub
sisting mainly on seaweed and fish.

WORDS OF WISDOM.

\ man that runs away may fight

When a man and woman are married
heir romance ceases and their history
commences.
The aim OF all intellectual training
For the mass Of the people should be
TO cultivate common sense.
Trust him little who praises all, him
less who censures all, and him least OF
all who is Indifferent to all.
Good manners are q part OF good
morals, and it is as much your duty
as your interest to practice both.
1t is too bad that poor wretch can
be punished for stealing your pocket
handkerchief or gloves, and that no
punishment can be inflicted on those
who steal your time.
The heroic example OF other days is
in great part the source of the cour-
age of each generation; and men walk
up composedly to the most perilous
enterprises, beckoned onward by the
shades of the brave that were.
Great is the power of life which
shows that its highest experiences are
it's truest experiences, that it Is most
itself when it is at its best. What a
piece of the man was, for that shining
instant, 1t is the duty OF the whole
man to be always.

health, and, perhaps, enervated by
long years of prosperity.
Moderation Is fear Of falling into
envy, and into the contempt which
those deserve who become intoxicated
with their good fortune; it is vain
cstentation of the strength OF our
mind; in short, the moderation OF

A N0maG's Life in Mexico.

We journeyed day by day over the
hills and up the canons, camping by
night under the pines in mountain
glades or deep ravines, where the sun
sets at four o'clock, while it is light
above. The moon was in the full and
| the nights were frosty, and many times
we awoke to think it morning when
only our heads had become uncovered
| by the blankets and the big white
moon shone fair upon us. Getting up
in the night to poke the fire and thsw
the stiffening out of ones legs is called
by the boys 'splaying freeze-out" and
we all participate in the game. A
cigarette at two o'clock in the morn
ing, with ones back to the fire. while
the moon looks down on you, your
comrades breathing about you, a wolf
bowling mournfully from a neighbor-
ing hill, the mountains towering on
every side, and the tall pines painting
inky shadows across the ghostly grass,
is mild sensation and rather pleas
ant. Some of the men are on foot,
from soring their horses backs, and
their buckskin boots are wearing out,
SO they sit about the fire and stitch.
We are all very dirty. and I no longer
take comfort in watching the cook
make the bread, for fear I may be
tempted to ask hin if he will not wash
his hands, whereat the boys may indi-
cate that I am ''dude, land will look
down on me. The -four is nearly
gone, and shortly it will not matter
whether the cooks hands are rusty or
not. The coffee and sugar promise to
hold out. When William can no long
er serve 'sbull gravy" with his fried
meat 1 shall have many regrets, but
they are swamped by the probabilities
of tobacco famine, which IS immi-
nent. We get deer every day, but to
one not used to strictly meat diet it
begins to pail. The Indian hun Ter
takes the stomach of a deer, fills it
with meat, and deposits it under the
Goals. We roast it in slices and
chunks, but 1 like it better when
'jerked' brown, as it then affords
somewhat more mystery to a taste al
ready jaded with venison. In travel
ing with pack animals 1t is the custom
to make day s march before hating,

o'clock, or when water is found. Ten
hours march will loosen ones car
