1859. Mr.. Carmack's majority in
Hardeman is 439, leaving net ma
jority for Patterson of $50. Il is
impossible to get any definite infor-
nation from Fayette. That county
has fifteen precincts, and returns
have only been received from eight.
These eight give Carmack 355 ma

a majority of SIS, with seven pre-

a general opinion is entertained by
medical practitioners and others en-
gagged in caring for the sick that the
greatest number of deaths occurring in
individuals afflicted with disease takes
place during the hours Immediately
succeeding midnight and preceding the
dawn. The rule is said to be particu-
larly true in these suffering from cbron-
ic exhausting diseases.
Deductions have been made Prom

regulate the administration OF stimu-
lants in such cases, it being said: IF

Yet 1 always doubted the correctness
of the conclusions drawn, and, to settle
the doubt in my mind, since entering on
my duties ct the hospital I have collect
ed statistics, which find do not agree
with this generally accepted idea.
"The figures show - fewer cases dur

INDIANS IMPROVING.
Annual report OF Comrnissioner Bfewns
ins-Great Progress Made.


D. NJ. Browning, commissioner OF
Indian affairs, has made hrs annual re-
port to the secretary of the interior.
He saws that with no outbreak or dis
turbance during the year the progress
of the Indians generally m education
and civilization has been uninterrupted
and substantial. The main effort now
IS and for many years must be TO put
the Indian upon his allotment, get him
TO support himself there, protect him
from cncroachment and injustice and
educate and train his children IN books
and industries. AS a first step. so far
as treaty obligations do not interfere by
requiring the payment. of moneys and
issuance of rations or snnuitise, the
Indians are given TO understand that
the government will not feed and cloth
them while they remain in dleness.
Such funds as are ayailablefor the pur-
pose are devoted 10 starting Indians IN
homes. If an Indian VIII go upon an
allotment and work to;iruprove II, the
government will assistlhirn in building
a house, getting his farm in operation
and making him a practical farmer.
The commissioner says The government
goes further and pays the Indian for
his work. The regular Indian employees
the government paid last year s5oe.o9o.
A great diversity of crafts and indus
tries is the outgrowth of advanced
civilization. The reports from indian
agents. he SAYS, show that IHdsans IL
many different ways are coming TO earn
their living. They have euppliesfc for the
government. raise crops to sell, raise
and sell live stock. work in the woods
and on irrigation bitches, and IN many
minor ways contribute 20 their oSsn
subsistence.
The entire Indian sc-vice, with few
exceptions. is now under civil service
rcgulst ions. Exceptions are made NJ &c
Indians who are employed under non
competitive examinations
Progress in educating the Indians is
reported very satisfactory, in spite OF
many difficulties encountered. The En-
roIlInent during the year was 2s.s52. an
increase OF BIS over the previous year.
The average Attendance increased e52.
The reduction OF the number OF con-
tract schools has been made in accord

HOW TO MANAGE AN AQUARIUM
Certain Little Essentials to Its Proper
Care.

care.
In order to manage your aquarium
properly you will require a few simple
tools. a little hand-net that can be
bought for few cents, or made for
even less out of a bit OF wire and n small
piece of mosquito-netting is useful for
catching the fish or shells without put
ting your hands into the water. Apair
of wooden forceps, like glove-stretch-
er, will be found most convenient for
nipping off bits of decaying plants or
for catching objects that may have &C.
cidentally fallen into the water. Glass
tubes of various sizes are also useful.
If YOU want to catch any small object in
the water with the tube, place the tube
In the water with your finger'over THIS
hole in the top. Until your finger is
removed the tube will remain full of air.
Place it over the bit of refuse or what
ever it is you want to catch, remove
your finger, and the water will rush in,
carrying the object with 1T into the
tube, which should then be closed ut
the upper end by placing your finger
over it as before. A glass or hard-rub-
Der syringe is necessary with which to
aerate the water thoroughly at least
once day, and oftenerif possible. Fill
the syringe, hold it high,above the tank.
and then squirt the water back again.
A long piece of India rubber tubing
which may be used as a siphon is neces-
sary' for the purpose of changing the
water in the tank when it is evident
that something has gone wrong.
If great film begins to gather on the
side of the tank that is most exposed to
the light, il should be. cleaned away
every day, and the sides Of the glass pol
ished carefully. A small piece of clean
sponge tied on the end Of stick will
answer the purpose. If the scum IS
neglected and left to accumulate, you
will find il almost innpossible'tor remove
It from the glass even by hsrdscouring.
1t is best to have only small fish IN
your aquarium. and for this reason
trout are not desirable. Goldfish and
uinnows are very good. and the COM
mon little sunfsh or "pumpkin-seed"
Is excellent
You must keep careful watch over the
fish in your aquarium. and II any one OF
them appears to be sick he should be
removed at once. very gently, with the
hand-net, and placed in fresh water,
where he will often recover.
Certain varieties of snails live well
In fresh water, and will be found useful
in clearing away the green film that
is almost certain to collect on the side
OF the glass; but you must be careful
or they viii devour your plants as well;
and IL your tank is very small tits hard
" worth while to try TO keep them
You must be careful not to overstoek
your aquarium, for your fish VIII not
thrive if they are overcrowded- Re
member, also, that heat and dust are
fatal TO your pets. The water must be
kept clean ard cool at all times. and all
foreign matter and every particle ofde-
caying vegetat ton should be removed

most certain, that each cubic tenth OF
an inch of the air of each room contains
one or more particles OF the musk, and
that this air has been changed during the
series OF years an inconceivable number

natural that the imagination should re-
coil before attempting TO compute the
number of particles which must have
composed that single grain OF perfume!
Numerous as they must have been,
