row brim of a little theater affair they
are as pretty as can be and as new as
is anything.
Yellow felt hats appeared promptly
to take the place of yellow straw, and
the combination of such yellow with
black plumes and ribbons has still so
much the look of an accepted novelty,
unhurt by popularity, that it is entirely
safe to buy White felts, their trim
ming carrying out the still acceptable
black and white effect, are seen, and the
model pictured here is one of them. OF
silk beaver for the Ibrim and felt for the
crown, it's fiaring brim rolls slightly all
around and is turned up at the side
Black and white striped taffeta ribbon
encircles the crown and is used for the
large f1aring bow, which is held in place
by jet ornament. A number of black
ostrich tips are disposed at the other
side and front, and several rosettes are
put on the inner side of the brim in
back,
Nearly all the novelties in hats are
merely adaptations or exaggerations Of
what we have been doing for a season
or so, Perhaps the nearest approach
to an entirely new idea is the little hat
made of chenille-covered wire mesh,
through which are woven bands of
changeable silk of combination of col
or harmonizing with that of the mesh.
These hats are trimmed with plumes
and with a touch of lace, and their silk
en- changing effect is very pretty.

upon them and all their treasures by
their side
The knowledge that the red men are
buried with their money and treasures
upon them has been the means of fur
nishing many of the guides and woods
men of this section with good living
for some years, and probably will for
some years to come, until all the Indian
graves have been despoiled, After To-
eating an Indian cemetery the rest Is
easy. The men dig into the graves
those of the high priests or chief medi-
cine men preferred, on account of the
richer treasure found in them-and,
without disturbing the bodies or the
bones, as the case may be, in the least,
remove the money, which is generally In
silver dollars, and the jewelry, which is
often quite valuable. from the resting
place The money the men use as they
want it, but the jewelry is sold to who
ever will purchase it, and it is but fair
to say that more than one Minnesota
belle Is wearing around her neck a gold
chain which once reposed in an Indian
grave.
Thus far no jewel y has been found
in the mounds near the mouth of the
Little Fork, but the copper and bronze
implements and the pottery discovered
are even more valuable as historlcal
relics than the things of actual money
worth found in the localities inhabited
horse, are found in large numbers, ana
in rare instances the skulls have been
found. These skulls are massive things,
larger than the skulls of elephants, and
having jaws ponderous enough, 1t would
seem, to grasp at one time an entire
horse or COW without the slightest trou-
BILE. Many of these relics are in the
possession of Thomas McKinster and o.
w. Saunders, as we'll as other men who
have come to this country to make
homes for themselves and their fami-
lies, and to assist in the upbuilding of
one of the most fertile states in the
Union.
The writer has found specimens OF
pottery very similar to those found IN
Itasca county, along the banks of the
Missouri river, from Pierre to Bismarck,
in the earlier days, before such relics
We're hunted by scientists with the same
enthusiasm that the red man of long
ago hunted the now almost extinct buf-
falo. Now and then human bones We're
found, but none of them could be COM
pared in size with those found along the
banks Of the Little Fork. Somewhat
similar stone and copper implements
have been found in the old Indian
mounds in Sank county, Wis, but the
workmanship was not so fine, and the
bones found near them proved that the
people who had been buried there were
almost dwarfs.
This new northwestern country offers
tempting field for research to the stu
dent of the human race, and new dis
coveres are constantly coming to light,
which will, no doubt, throw much light
upon the mystery which now surrounds
the people who built the mounds and
were buried there.

Peanuts will be a very short crop
ahis year, according to the depressing
reports from all over the South collect
ed by a central handling house in Gin
cinnat. The great heat and long
drought during the late summer and
early fall seriously impaired both the
quantity and quality of the crop. The
Virginia crop will most likely be but
half the size of last years, and in quail
ity will be much below the average.
The Tennessee crop will be short, but
the quality of the nuts is better than
in Virginia. But in face of this de-
pressing news concerning a great Am
erican staple, 1t is reassuring to know
that successful experiments in raising
peanuts have been made in many parts
of the country hitherto considered in
hospitable. Washington and Oregon
Farmers have raised good crops this
year, and Biddeford, Maine, farmer
tells this week of having just harvested
"a good though small crop.

Chicago is a big place, but it is in
such financial straits that the munici-
pal authorities have under serious adj
visement a reduction of expenses by
cutting down by one-half the employees
of the fire and police departments and
largely reducing the appropriation for
maintaining the public schools. This
action has been advised by Corporation
Counsel Beale and is favorably enter
tained by the mayor and city control
Ter, both of whom agree with the city
attorney, that the only way to secure
a revision of the present revenue laws
is to give the people only what they are
willing to pay for. That statement ex-
plains the peculiar situation of Chica-
go. Her annual expenses are a million
dollars more than her revenues, not be-
cause the citizens are unable to pay
anore, but because they are unwilling n
tax themselves beyond what they now
do.

Though the heir to great wealth, the

Pierre DELANEY, who posed for years
as having been miraculously cured at
Lourdes, has made full confession OF
his imposture Some years ago, when
engaged as a worker in hospital, ne
pretended that he had locomotor atax-
ia; but the physicians were so suspi-
cious that he determined to go where
there was less science and more faith.
So he went to Lourdes, threw away his
crutches in the sacred grotto, and de-
clared himself miraculously cured. His
story was at once believed; archbishops
and other dignitaries of the Church
published the miracle to the world, and
held UP to odium those who presumed
Ito doubt it as wicked unbelievers; and
the Marquis de Villeneuve gave Dalai
may an easy and lucrative post. Now
that he has confessed his imposture, the
anti-clerical papers of France are ask
ing the Church authorities to say some
thing about the case, but they have no
disposition to do this.

Depend upon it, children, said the

selves. There was no mistake made

our feet where our hands are, how
could we get along ? It would be ex-
ceedingly awkward. Istretch my hand

There was no reply, and after await

the question himself.
It is an evidence of design. Don't
forget that, children, he continued
impressively. It is an evidence Of de-
sign. Suppose, for instance, my eye,
instead Of having lids and lashes, had
legs. Suppose my eye had legs. How
could I use them?
You could use them in running your
eye over the congregation, couldn't
you ? replied deeply interested little

EXTRA VAGANCE IN FUNERALS.

The matter of extravaganza in fun
erals is a subject of importance to
everybody, although one of such pc
cullar delicacy that not every body
can be approached uponit. From the
sentimental point of view, it would
be hard to Justify the right Of an in
dividual to question the manner in
which his neighbor sees fit to perform
the most mournful task that falls to
human duty, that of burying the dead.
He could scarcely expect to justify
suggestion that his neighbours grief
should be symbolized thus and so, and
that any differing manifestation is but
folly and extravaganza. The dispas-
sionate judgment Of the unaffected
may be more in accord with sOberness,
but it would be different to satisfy the
sorrowing who are looking for sym
pathy that what they needed was
common sense.
The failure of this advice lies rather
in the inopportune extension of it,
than in its own self. IF people could
be made to realize the folly of extra
VACANT funerals before they were call
ed upon to have any funeral, it is pos
sible the conviction of the sober mind
would influence the judgment of the
mind bereaved.
There is most assuredly a crying
need for reform in the matter of the
expense of funerals. The extrava-
gance starts first from an illogical at
tempt to satisfy a sentiment that
nothing is too good for dead friend.
From the prompting of this we'll in
tended but questionable impulse the
transition is easy to the ignoble rival
ry of neighbors who have made or
will make similar display.
The field is too broad to attempt a
discussion of either of these conditions
but their folly can be easily shown and
in one case is even self-evident.
The result is that desire to do honor
to a friend dead in most instances
works inconceivable injury to the
friends living, those who must still
travel ife's thOrny way are robbed of
the all-too few comforts that might
have been theirs that shroud may be
bought for friend who needs moth
ing that human aid can give him. In
stances are common where the page
antry of a funeral plunges the house
hold into debt, and sorrow for the
dead is removed in the privations
which the obsequies incurred.
It is absurd to waste upon the dead
what might do some good to the liv
ing, and heaven knows there are liv-
ing enough who need it.
