AFTER INDIAN WIVES.
Whites Who Wish to Become Sluny
Men and Secure Valuable Lands.

Whitcs who Wish to Become Saunv
Men and Secure Valuable Lands.
According to the recent ruling of the
interior department August Is was the
last date on which it was possible TO
qualify as a Cherokee citizen in the
Cherokee Strip" and as consequence
great number of scheming white men
were hunting Indian girls for wives, to
take advantage of the laws and become
a squaw man before that date.
Each Indian girl is entitled to 160
acres of land in the Indian territory and
a share in the large sum of money held
in trust by the government for the
Cherokees. Thousands of white men
have already acquired valuable lands
by marrying into the tribes, and all the
eligible Indian madcns were being
courted with as much ardor as titled
foreigners display in their efforts to
win the hearts and fortunes of Ameri-
can heiresses.
Notwithstanding the mercenary mo.
tives of their suitors, the Indian girls
readily accept marriage proposals from
white men, observation having taught
them that most squaw men treat their
wives with more consideration than
do the full-blooded braves. The
boom in the matrimonial market be.
came greater as the day approached
when citizenship rights might no longer
be acquired by marriage, and all the
ministers on the reservation and even
over the Arkansas border had their
hands full. Many Of the Cherokee girls
despite their dark skins, possess con.
siderable beauty and much intelligence
and some of them are graduates of the
best Indian schools.
The results of intermarriage with
whites are being watched with interest
by students of the Indian question, and
the belief is gaining ground in the west
that the allotment of Indian lands in
severalty and the gradual assimilation
of the Indians by the dominant race will
in a few years relieve the government OF
the problem that would otherwise never
be satisfactorily solved.-Cincinnat
Enuuirer.

fuller name than John" and they
always afterward referred to him as
"Cabin john" His place was located
near the river, at the mouth of n great
gorge with towering hills surrounding
it. There is until this day no better To-
cation on the upper Potomac for fish
ing and hunting. In those days the
man was opulent in all that was needed
for game food. Whether he had n
fortune concealed about his place Or
not nobody knew, and nobody ever
tried to find cut. lie always had
money when he came to town to buy
supplies. He was on good terms with
the Indians, and he did not fear ma
rauders, because he surrounded him
self with dogs, who loved him and
watched his place by night and by day.
Well, whoever he was, he died without
revealing his identity, and he is remem-
bered as "Cabin John" and so he will
live in local history. Time passed on,
and long after he was gone there grew
up here city, the capital of republic.
Modern improvements came with popu-
lasion, and it became necessary to build
reservoir and aqueduct to supply the
city with water. More than ten miles
west of Georgetown the civil engineers
went to build reservoir; and the wa
ter supply was taken from the Potomac,
near the Great falls In order to bring
the water to the city it became neces-
sary to build great bridge across the
immense gorges referred 70 above, and

the stranger built his cabin and made

That is the history Of the origin Of
the name of the bridge which is the

It's diameter is 220 feet, counting it as

John never dreamed that he would
leave his fictitious name to all future
generations, else he might have given
his real name, unless he had ample rea-
sons for carrying that name to the

to spend great deal of time in coon
hunting, and that during his latter
years he wore no other clothing than
the skin and furs of domestic animals.
There is prosperous restaurant

WCToRlA'S IRISH HOME.
urr Majesty to Purchase Muckross
Abbey, a beautiful Residence.

nbbcy, q ttthItcncc.
A recent cable dispatch from Lon.
don announced that QUEEN Victoria
purposes to purchase the mansion and
estates of Muckross, Ireland, with Il
view of establishing permanent royal
residence there.
Muckross House-or, as it is some
times called, Muckross Abbey-is built
upon the shore of Muckross lake.
The demesne gates are close TO the
village of Muckross, with its pic
turesque inn of the same narne-a
hosiery which is well known to Amer
lean tourists. Standing among its
well-trimmed lawns and luxuriant
gardens, the mansion commands n
beautiful view, lofty mountains, thick
wooded forests and shlmmering sheets
of water stretching rway in the land
scape.
The mountain glens and forests
ncighboring the demesne of Muckross
Abbey are celebrated for their red
deer, and the hall OF the mansion is
decorated with gigantic antlers, taken
from stags shot in the vicinity. These
Trophies so excited the interest of the
prince cousort that he remarked to his
host, the late Col. Herbert, that he had
no idea "stags with such antlers cousl
be shot In Ireland" Col. Herbert re-
piled that much finer specimens were
still roaming wild in the Killarney
woods. About four years ago the larg-
est red deer buck ever shotin the United
Kingdom was killed on the Muckross
estate.
Standing in the hall of the mansion
there is u clock of the tall, coffin-like
ease variety. The case is of exquisite.
ly carved and inlaid wood, and the dial
is of beautifully wrought silver. 1t has
astronomical and meteorological at
tachments, and a peculiarly musical
chime. The entire design is very an
tique. This clock was purchased at
sale of curiosities in London, about
80 years ago, and is believed to have
been taken from despoiled monastery
in Germany. One of the English
Rothschilds while visiting Muckross
Abbey offered the father Of the pres.
ent owner signed blank check for this
clock.
Hanging in one of the rooms is a por
trait of the famous countess of Des.
mond, who lived TO the age of $50
years, and who is said TO have cut q
complete set of new teeth when over
100 years old, and who journeyed to
the England court shortly before her
death to petition James |. TO remove
the attainder for treason from her
family.
The entire estate OF the Muckross
Herberts comprises about 10000 acres.
The rent roll is estimated at some C H.
900 year, or 100000. A considerable
portion of this territory is forest and
mountain, highly valued for its hunt
ing privileges. The River Laune, which
flows through the domain, is one Of the
finest salmon strelms il the United
Kingdom. The region is at once a
paradise Of verdure and vegetation and
revelation of wild, rugged grandeur

CAUSE OF SUNSTROkE.
II rs Said TO he the Result of an Acute
Poison.


1t is now established that sunstrohc
Is the result of "acute, intense and vir-
ulent poison, originating within the
body, acting rapidly and violently upon
the nervous .rstem." 1t was upon this
assumption that DR.. Ira Van Glesen, di-
rector OF the state pathological insti-
tute of this city, went to work. He pro-
cured the body fluids and excretions of
living cases of sunstroke, and with
them experimental upon animals with
most remarkable results.
Prompt and decisive results were OBJ
tanned from injections of blood serum
taken from patients during the period
Of what is known as hyperpyreXia. Al
though Dr. Van Glesen has noted the
fatal results in some such cases which
could not be attributed to the injec-
tion of the material, hc believes that
there "was no installing the cause ut
death which occurred so uniformly in
these animals in succession. This re-
suit is in consonance with the hypothe-
sis that the rapidly fatal course in Sc
we're cases of sunstroke is due to an in
tense, rapidly acting poison, circu-
lating in the body fluids"
Other experiments involving the in
lection of urine from convalescent pa
tents into the blood circulation of rab-
bits was also attended by interesting
results. DR.. Van Giesen thinks that sit
is not too much to say that the virulence
of the autotoxic poison in some cases of
sunstroke is fully as rapid and violent
us snake venom, and considerably re-
sembles its action. Cases of sunstroke
which entered the hospitals with pur-
pie, swollen faces, rapid and very much
enfeebled heart action, and profound
collapse, with death occurring within
one to two hours, are surely examples
Of the effects of the most violent pois-
ons that we know of."-N. Y. Journal.

PIGEONS SHOW THEIR TRAINING.
Large FloclSs of the Birds That Per-
form Wonderful EvOlutiOns.

Remarkable as are the results OF
training as exhibited in the speed Of
modern pigeons, they do not compare
with the wonderful evo,utions per.
formed by these birds in the last CEN
turies in Italy. There, were at that
time men who devoted themselves to
pigeon training, and the art was sup
posed to find its perfection in certain
families and TO be handed down from
generation to generation. The art con-
sisted in training large flocks Of pigeons
to obey their owner and to perform cer-
tain evolutions in the air. In the ear
liest days in India birds were trained
to fight opposing bands. When a pigeon
tournament was in progress the owners
ascended some lofty building and con-
Quoted the performance by the aid Of
flags; and in obedience to their sig
nails flocks of birds OF different colors
would wheel, rise, dive andintermlngie,
to separate again and go through o
number of interesting movements that
were remarkable for their beauty.
Prizes were offered for the most beau
tiful and novel figures. In India in
early times, where the sport of pigeon
flying originated, the object of the
flights was often sanguinary one, the
owners of the various focks endeavor-
ing 10 accomplish the destruction OF
the others. Thus, the birds of one band
would carry bombs with fuse hanging
to their claws, and at the command of
their masters would sweep down over
their opponents, and the bomb would
drop among them and explode. Others
bore sharp knives, two-edged, suspend
ed from their claws, and were made to
dash among their antagonists and en-
deavor to cut them to pieces-an easy
matter when birds were in rapid mo-
ton. To-day the triganiori, as they
are called Of Modena, devote themselves
to harmless pursuits, and are satisfied
when watching the wonderful evoiu-
tons of the birds through the air.

Novel Plan of Protection to the City
of Halifax.


1t is probably NOT generally known
outside of the English officers in com
mand of the station that Georges is

filled with water, and that If an at
tacking party succeeded in passing the
forts at the entrance to the harbor and
landed they would be precipitated into
the water and drowned The surface
Of the ground is sodden and planted
with shrubbery, and is apparently
solid, but the only really solid part Of
it is a narrow board walk on which

the purpose of commanding the city OF
Halifax they would break through and
fall inte the pit about IS feet below
the surface. The excavation was made
about GO years ago, and the secret was
kept for not less than 30 years.
1t was not until 1867 that the dis
covery was made by two men in boat,
driven ashore in gala One Of them
attempted to make his way to the
dwelling occupied by the garrison and
suddenly disappeared. His companion
happened to get "a footing on the board
walk. Discovered by the sentry, he was
summarily elected from the island, be-
ing placed aboard his boat and being
sent adrift in the storm. lie succeeded
in reaching Halifax. The man who
broke through was drowned. The
