QUEER NAMES.
Indians Fond of lacking English
COgnomens to Their own.
From the New York p

From the New York Press.
There isn't a great deal of funny read
ing in the Blue Book. which tells all about
what everybody gets who works for Uncle
Sam, be his or her station what it may,
but there is little. Perhaps it seems
fmner than it really is on account of its
environments, but il does seem a trihe
ridiculous to read in a dry-as-dust chron-
icle of Where born, Where appointed
FROM Where employed, Salary" the name
of Grover Yellow Boy.
This distinguished namesake of the
President is drawing wages from Uncle
Sam and has to sign the pay-roll-or did
last year at any rate-along with another
Indian policeman named Grover Mountain
Sheep.
Political names are not common, but
they do get on the rolls. Witness, Hoke
Red Thunder. That is a direct bid for
sympathy from the great and good Sec
rotary of the Interior
Most of the first names are Anglo-SaXon,
and they are to the true names of the
Indians as plug hat upon Apollo Belvi-
dere. Dismounts Thrice is one mans
name. That tells the story of how when
a little boy came into the world, and with
the first thin, sharp squa1 he uttered,
getting the new-found air out of his lungs
to get more in. and SO keep up this pro-
cess by day and night until the world end
ed for him, the father stepped out of the
tepee and he saw a man get off his horse
three times One wonders what was up.
Was he thrown off? What was he about?
anyhow? That is what went into the mind
of this mans father. He wondered at il,
and so named the child for the first
new thing he saw.
But how it cheapens all to tack on be-
fore the name the handle william"
Henry Look for Horses is another such
name. So is Ivan Star Comes Out. Where
got he that Ivan? So is James Clinches
and John Crazy Dog. But what is Will
lam Walks Under Ground? A mole? How
came GeoffFye Chips. by his first name?
And what eastern man will thing of chips
as anything else than what an AK would
cut from piece of wood. Plainsmen will
smile a little at that notion.
Brian Poor Thunderl That tells of a
storm mqttering lin the west when the
boy was born, and the father thought the
rumble a tame affair. There are plenty
of men named Lightfoot, and one man
calls himself James C. Lightning
Some day, if they don't all die off these
names once fixed will be as honorable as
that of the man who once kept hogs and
whose descendants now are rather proud
that their name is Howard, or Hog
Ward to get down to the bones of the
thing.

NOT ALLOWED TO EAT FISH.
Tea PicISers on "A Restricted Diet to
Protect the Delicate Flavor.
From the Providence Journal.


From the Providence Journal.
The Chinese tea. plant is a pretty ever
green from three to seven feet in hight,
covered in the winter months with fra
grant white or yellowish blossoms, resem-
bling those of the orange or Blackberry.
The first crop of tender unexpanded leaf
buds is gathered in May or June, and is
the finest quality, being reserved for the
use of the mandarins and other individu-
ais of authority, and selling at IS a pound.
They are gathered by hand with the
greatest care, and often with a rough sort
of glove, while the pickers are forbidden
to partake OF any fish or strong-smelling
substance for fear of affecting the deli
cate flavor. Much depends also upon the
exact time of picking, as delay of even
twenty-four hours may produce an infe-
rior grade of tea No less than five sue
cessiye dimensions can be made from
these leaves, while the other crops supply
but one or two.
The second and principal harvest is in
early summer. the tea selling at $3.50 a
pound, and the third and last crop is
gathered in the autumn. rms is what is
usually exported, so that unless dealing
with well-known tea, houses, we seldom
obtain the choicest brands
Green tea is made by roasting the leaves
ing but those intended for black tea are
allowed to wilt and ferment for several
days in the open air till they turn red,
when they are fired over furnaces of
burning charcoal
The Hysons are most generally used
of the green teas, and like other brands
of their class, are often stained by the Chi
nese with various mineral dyes, such as
indigo and gypsum. All but the best teas
are also subject to adulteration from the
mixture of other kinds of leaves or OF
exhausted tea leaves .recolored, with black
lead or logwood
The greatest tea drinkers are said to
be the Australians, and after them the
English. who consume four times as much
tea as coffee, while the people OF the
United States drink eight times more cof-
fee than tea

DOWN THE RIVER on 4 STURGEON.
An Exciting Ride Until the Fish Was
Beached on "a sand Bar.


From the Richmond Religious Herald.
Among the many incidents of the olden
time that interest us now, DR.. ]. Russell
Hawkins tells US of one that happened in
James River, at the Falls of Richmond,
in the year 1879. He assures us that MANY
of the leading citizens of Richmond at
that time were eye-witnesses to the fact
and that he had it straight from them
1t was concerning Martin Hawkins, an
uncle of the doctor. This uncle was a.
great hunter and fisherman. In those days
James river was well stocked with shad
In May they came up from the sea, and
hundreds of people, fond of the sport
would assemble on the rocks in mid
stream, along the falls, and with dip-nets
would supply themselves with all they
wanted. Our hero was at his post watch
ing for catch, when along came an i'm
mense sturgeon, and stopped to rub his
sides against the rocks, according to the
habit of surgeons, when Mr.. Hawkins
concluded that if he could only get his
hands into the gills of the monster he
might succeed in landing him. Accordingly
he crept to the side of the rock STOPPED
over and began rubbing the sides of the
fish near the tail, and proceeded Quietly
up toward the head, until at last the gills
were reached. With a sudden thrust the
hands were sent home to the very inner
jaws of the fish, when it gave a lurch
that jerked the fisherman from the rock
He fell aStride the fiShs back but his
hands were held as in a wise. For a mo-
ment all was surprise and ihterest then
both fish and rider sank in the Deep roar
ing waters of the flood. The spectators
were aghast with fright They thought
their friend was lost. But after a few
moments, fish and fisherman came to the
surface about 100 yards down the river
and remained at the surface long enough
to breathe, then sank again. A moment
later they rose again, and then again and
again, as the waters bore them away They
passed under Mayo's bridge, half a mile
from the starting point.
People along the shore became excited
and gave chase as best they could. In
the mean time the fish was being ex-
hausted and the rider had discovered it
and began to try to steer for a sand bar
then a little way below them. This he
reached successfully. And here after
struggle, he dragged his trophy ashore on
the Chesterfield side of the river, and on
the side opposite from the point of start
ing Richmond was then a small town,
and in a little time this strange adventure
was known to every inhabitant. An oVa-
ton followed. The fish, which measured
ten feet and weighed 300 pounds, was
served up in a manner to suit every taste,
and the night that followed this episode
was spent in high glee and the distin-
guished adventurer was ever afterward
known as Martin Hawkins, the sturgeon
rider This gentleman died in his seventy
third year at the residence of a. friend
Daniel Burton, about ten miles west of
Richmond.
