TORTURED BY THE SIOUX.
Scout Tells How He Was Initiated Into
Sitting Bulls Tribe.

Frank Grouard, the Indian scout who
is now living in St. Joseph, Mo, has re-
covered from the surgical operation in
which an arrow head was removed from
his groin after having been imbedded
there for nearly dozen years. He was
captured, says the St. Louis GI0be-Den-
0crQt by Sitting Bull and a small band
OF followers when 10 years old, and re-
manned with the Indians during the
next six years, a greater portion of the
time in the camp of Sitting Bull, through
whose influence he was saved from
turture and death.
From the time of my capture and up
to 1872, he said the other dav." | was
not required to undergo any of the self

Four warriors squatted on each side

of pea, taking'480 pieces out of each

HYDRAULIC EXCAVATINC.
How They Dig Into the Earth with Jets
of Water Out West.

Within the past ten or twelve years
the uses of hydraulic monitors" and
Little Giants" of California mining
fame, as means of earth eXcava-
ton, have become pretty well appreci-
ated among engineers, and water jets
have been successfully applied to va
riety of engineering purposes, for which
only short time previously they would
never have been thought of, saws
Casters Magazine. Pile-driving with
water-jets, now so common, is only one
modification of the general method,
while the removal of heavy earth banks
by these aqueous battering rams is an
other which is deservedlv working its
way into favor. What has led to these
reflections is revised version, recently
published, OF an account of the removal
several years ago of some river bluffs
oyerhanging the tracks of one of the
railroad lines in the western part of the
United States. This was accomplished
almost wholly by the employment of
jects Of water under high pressure,
bringing the cost Of excavation down to
the low figure of II cents per cubic
yard.
II lSCdLlS dISO Il HtdI JOD CdlIleu Out q
few years ago in the way of filling in a
large area of land just under water and
bringing it up to a level of several feet
above the water line. Large sand hills
ranged along the shore close by the
shadows. The work got into the hands
of two old California miners. who ap-
piled modified hydraulic mining out
tit to its execution. They bought Il
couple of large pumps, which delivered
water from the bay on the tops of the
sand hills through an iron pipe, and
then, by means of series of boxes and
sluices they carried the dirt and sand
which the water washed down from the
hills out to the spot to be filled. IN this
way several acres of land were made at
an expense which was merely nominal.
The pumps and boilers were practically
worth as much after the work was
done as when they were first purchased;
handling of material with attending
cost there was none; and the whole
operation was complesed i'll remark
able short space of time.

FACES OF FAMOUS PEOPLE.
Some characteristics of Ancient and Mod
ern Celebrities.

Ole Bull the violinist had decided
ly clerical appearance, and was often
taken Tor parSOn.
Lorenzo de Medici had a common
place face, weak eyes and generally
unprepossesslng appearance.
humboldt had broad. well-fed, in
tellectual countenance, that showed a
love for the good things of life.
Raphael's face, painted by himself,
represents him as a man with more
than usual personal attractions.
1gnatius Loyola had the face of an
ascetic, with sharp features, worn with
fasting, watching and prayer.
William Rufus took his nickname
from his red hair, but, as though in
mockery of its color he allowed his
beard, also fiery red, to grow to an in
ordinate length.
Frederick the Great had a sharp.
hatchet face, with a cold blue eve, that,
as one of his contemporaries said,
CLEANED like reelection of light from
a bavonet"
Petrarch wore his hair in long curls
and describes himself as turning a cor
ner with great caution on a windy day
lest the breeze should disarrange his
locks.
Sheridan was a handsome young
man, but in middle life dissipation de-
stroyed every trace of his former good
looks, and at first glance he seemed
singuiarly repulsive.
Michael Angelo had face as rugged
as his genius. His forehead was low
and broad, his eyes were full, his nose
thick and strong. His face was irregu-
lar, but full of power.
Vandyke, the refined painter of ele-
giant portraits had the aspect of a
dandy. He wore his hair curled on his
forehead, and 4 pointed beard, of which
he was quite vain.
William OF Orange was a consumptivs
and showed the fact plainly in his face.
His cheeks were thin and had a hectic
flush, but his voice was unnaterally
strong. The most marked points in his
face were his eyes and forehead.
Nine. De Stael was ugly, with rough,
irregular features and bad complexion.
She was very sensitive in regard to her
looks and disliked being complimented
on her intellectual powers, regarding
the compliment as a slur on her lack of
beauty.
Gibbons face was full and red. Late
in life he became exceedingly stout,
and his features grew fabby. Only
when Interested in conversation did he
show indications of the bright intellect
that conceived and carried out the
greatest historical work ever produced
by the unalded labor of one man.
Goethe was pronounced "the hand
soonest man of Europe" He was lit
tie over 6 feet in height but so well
proportioned that he did not seem tall;
his features were OF the Roman type, his
hair rather light than dark his whole
appearance commanding. Even to ex-
treme old age he retained a large share
of the personal good looks that earlier
in life had made him so attractive.-St
Louis Globe Democrat.

Remodeling Unsold Hats.

One of the little known industries in
New York is that of remodeling men 5
hats. All large hatters have a large ac-
cumulation of unsold hats from time to
time which are out of style and of an
obsolete shape. These hats are removed
from their dusty shelves and consigned
to the remodeler, who blocks them over
on blocks of the latest pattern and re-
turns them in an up-to-date shape.
This is, of course, not a very profit
able transaction for the halter. When
the charges of the remodeler are added
to the interest on the money originally
paid for the hats very big slice is cut
out of the profits. 1t is better. how
ever, than to have dead stock lying on
the shelves which is out of date and con.
sequently unsalable.-N y. World.

SHORT.LlVEO BONANZA FORTUNES,
vast AgEregations of Wealth Not Easily
Maintained in the Far West.

While the accumulation of wealth in
/ the hands of few is an evil that needs
to be vigorously combated. there are
not lacking indications that it contains
within itself the seeds of its own de-
struction. Families like the Astors that
fasten themselves like abelones on a
single spot and suck out the resources
OF a community from generation to
generation, are happily rare, and the
| conditions that permit them to subsist
may be easily altered by legislation.
The difficulty of maintaining great ag-
gregations of capital intact under ordi-
nary circumstances has been strikingly
illustrated in San Francisco, saws The
EsanlAFsr Of that city
A few years ago, among many large
accumulations of wealth in this town.
eight stupendous fortunes stood con-
splcuously pre-cminent-the four rail-
road fortunes of Stanford, Hunting gton,
Crocker and Hopkins, and the four bo-
panza fortunes of Flood, O'Brien, Mac
kay and Fair. The widest ideas pre-
vailed concerning the size of these
boards. Stanford and Huntington
were commonly supposed to be worth
at least 800, 900, 600 apiece. At one
time Mackay was called the richest
man in the world, and his wealth was
figured as high as 5000, 900, 900. This
estimate was based on the reasonable
idea of taking the dividends on his min
ing stocks as the interest on a capital
sufficient to produce such returns, at
ordinary rates, and perhaps allowing a
geometrical increase on the previously
observed scale.
OF these huge fortunes only that of
Huntington remains undiminished in
the original hands. Mackav is living,
but his wealth, actual and reputed, has
shrunk until he sometimes finds it hard

900, 900 or 81, 600, 900 in ready cash. |
The Stanford estate has been generously |
dedicated to public uses. The Crocker |
estate has to support several families !
and several expensive establishments |
The Hopkins estate is probably smaller |
now than when Mark Hopkins died. |
Flood and O'Brien saw their wealth |
diminish to ordinary proportions before
their death, and their heirs are not con- |
splcuous now among milionaires |
The shrewdest and hardest of the bo-
nanza kings has just died, and his
wealth will be divided into several parts
in any case, and may be all swallowed
up by the legal talent that has displayed |
such absorbent ability in the Jessup and |
Blythe cases. On the whole, the Amer |

A Womau's Club.

What is a wOman's club? No idle place
Wherein to chatter of the last new play
Or whisper Of a sister gone astray,
Or strip with cruel gossip every trace
OF sweetness from some life borne down
with strife.
IT'S not place were fashion reigns su-
preme,
Where lack Of style is sin beyond redeem;
Where outward gdrb is more than inward
life,
No room is there for careless jest or sneer,
Or meaning glances with dire purpose cast
To cause some trembling soul to blush in
fear
AL these are what woman's club is not,
Things left behind, outsrown, despised, for
got.
What Is a wOman's club? A meeting ground
For those OF purpose great, and broad and
strong,
Whose aim is in the stars: who ever long
To make the patient, listening world re-
sound
With sweeter music, purer freer tones:
A place whore kindly lifting words are said
And kindIier deeds are done, and soul finds
touch with soul;
Where victors in the race for fame and
power
Look backward, even in their triumph tour,
r. beckon others TO the shining goal.

Why Men Should Marry.

1t was clearly meant that all men, as
well as all women. should marry; and
those who, for whatever reason, miss
this obvious destiny are, from natures
point of view, failures. 1t is not ques-
ton Of personal felicity (Which in eight
cases out of ten may be more than
problematic), but of race esponsibility.
The unmarried man is skulker, who,
in order to secure his own ease, dooms
some woman, who has a rightful claim
upon him. to celibacy. And in so doing
he defrauds himself of the opportunities
for mental and moral development which
only the normal experience can provide.
He deliberately stunts the stature of his
manood, impoverishes his heart and
brain and chokes up all the sweetest
potentialities of his soul. To himself he
is apt to appear like the wise fox that
detects the trap, though it be ever SO
cunningly baited; that refuses to sur
render his liberty for the sake of an ap-
petizing chicken or rabbit, which may
after all be a decoy, stuffed with saw
dust, while as Il matter of fact his case
is that OF the cowardIy servant in the
parable. who, for fear of losing his
talent, hid it in napkin, and in the end
was deemed unworthy of his steward.
