10 1890 no tin plate was made in the
United States. The imporlations from the
Uaitcd Kingdom in 1890 amounted in
value to $40, 74G, APT BY the Mckinley
bill the duty on tin plate was raised with
the view of inducing its manufacture in
this country. A howl Immediately went
up from the free-trade papers about
the working mans dinner pail being tax
e / etc. Nevertheless, tho law went into
effect and numerous tin plate mills were
established. AS result OF this, in 1896
there was imported only So, 1896, 282 in
value OF tin plate while the product OF our
own mills during that year amounted to
$10,274,3l3. In 1890 the price OF i'm
ported tin plate was $4.60a box OF 100
pounds. Now, with the high duty, (Which
according to the free trade experts is
always added TO the cost of the article,)

imported article at So 80 Ia other words

AN INDIAN LEGEND.
aew tho Mojaves Explain the Division of
the Races.

the Races
The mystery surrounding the origin
of the Indian race is greatly enhanced
by listening to some of the quaint leg
ends, says the Los Angeles Herald. Here
is one of them. related by the older
men of the Mojave tribe:
'At the time of the Mojave, the white
man, the negro, and all other people
lived together with their god, Mule
velia, whose mother was the earth, and
whose father the heaven.
They were all supplied with food,
clothing, and many luxuries. Besides
these they had tools and all kinds of inn
plements and machinery to work with.
Everything was manufactured, and
especially matches.
"One day Mulevelia died, and all the
people, excepting the Mojaves, fled, aft
er looting the camps of everything they
could lay their hands on, not even leav-
ing match.
Here was a pretty state of affairs,
and the dead god awaiting cremation!
"There seemed to be no other alterna-
tive than to dispatch a messenger for
a spark from one of the brilliant lu-
minaries of the upper region, and coy
ote was sent to q star for some fire.
after long time he returned with
out success, and so hungry that he
tried to eat up the dead god.
"Mastanho, the man, sat by rubbing
willow sticks together, and produced
fire, which they used in burning up
Mulevelia.
after the cremation, which took
place somewhere near Fort Mojave, the
mountains at the foot of the canyon
parted and the Colorado flowed through
and swept the ashes away.
"Mastanho now became chief and di-
vided the Indians into tribes and gave
them their allotments of land.'

A CRANKY FOLDING BED.
Unpleasant Experience of a Bridal Couple

Unpleasant Experience of Bridal Couple
in Brooklyn, n. Y.
A folding bed played sorry prank
on a bridal couple who were passing
their honeymoon in Brooklyn board
inghouse on Columbia Heights last
week, says the New York Sun. Mr.. and
Mrs. Blank applied for a room in Mrs.
Does clearinghouse early in the week.
Mrs. Doe installed them in her front
parlor and placed therein an old-fash-
toned folding bed that had not been
used for several years. 1t closed and
presented a front like that of bureau.
Thursday night the boarders in the up
per part of the house were reused by
wild shrieks that seemed to come from
the street. These cries were but half
mufied, and as they continued the
boarders couldn't get to sleep again.
As Mrs. Doe listened to them she
thought Of the possibilities of her fold
ing bed, and she arose. The cries con-
tinued, and her suspicion became GER
tainty. She rushed to her parlor door,
but it was locked. With the aid of two
of her boarders she broke it open, and
sure enough the bed had folded up,
imprisoning Mr.. and Mrs. Blank Sc
curely. They were extricated with
difficulty, and physician who lived in
the house applied restoratives to Mrs.
Blank, who had tainted. 1t was discov-
cred that her right arm was broken and
her right hand crushed. Mr.. Blank
face was cut in. several places. The
bed, was a wreck.

one of his paroxysms brought the nail
up in his throat, from whence he re-
moved it with his own fingers.
DIR. Crumbine, the local physician,
who has had charge of the case, says
that the medical authorities record
three months as the longest time sub
stance such as nail might remain in
the lungs without causing death, while
nearly ten months elapsed in the case
of the Schneider boy. The nail, which
was nearly two inches long, had be-
come black and corroded, and parts of
it had sloughed away, showing that ma
ture was doing her best to dispose OF
its unwelcome presence.

ARE water spaniels, brother and sister,
and with the docility of doves and en-

education has made polished and re-
fined, they went to the door and re-
ceived with courtly bows Miss Myers

terriers of Mrs. Dunsmore, Mrs. Don
aldson, Mrs. Aldrich and Mrs. Gilbert,
and escorted them to chairs around a
square table, upon which stood an
evergreen tree"
Then the report goes on. The reader
with n strong enough stomach to en-
able him or her to read the report
through, or to return to a finished pc
rusal of it after taking breath of fresh
air, is informed that there was ian

and that the latter was beautifully il
Illuminated with frankfurter sausages in
the branches; also that "the guests of
Pet and Trix had a supper of candy,
cakes and ice cream seryed to them by
beautiful women in evening Dress"
that the dog guests drank crystal wa
ter from saucers of Sevres and Limoges;
that they went home with new ribbons
and bouquets of violets, and were 'in-
vited' to come again on New Years
night"
An even more exclusive affair is re-
ported from Cincinnati, where a single
terrier had Christmas tree all to him
self, costing about 500. It's not stated
that any special religious exercises were
introduced at either place, but their
introduction would rot have made the
proceedings seem more silly and sac
religious to most people than the pro-
gramme as carried out.

months the affair will be open. There
are at least $500 Indians in the state.

Child Suffers Ten Months Before 1t Is

A strange case has come under the
notice of the physicians at Topeka, Kan.
In the latter part of last February the
four-year-old son of Silas Schneider, of
Dodge City, was brought to Topeka for
treatment by Surgeon McClintock. The
boy had swallowed a six-penny wire
nail, and it was believed it had lodged
in his lung. The surgeon attempted to
reach it with his knife, and later en-
ployed the Y rays, but without sue
cess. So he sent the boy home, with the
prediction that the nail would work
through his lungs and kill him.

"When people are suffering from
thirst, they will resort TO all kinds Of
means to get water" remarked gen
tleman who was at one time a member
Of the United States geological and sur

without water and were suffering great

per who was as keen on the scent for
water as is hound on the trail Of a
deer. Finally he paused at a place and
stopped.
L think there s water here, If we
could dig a well, he observed.
But we can't, replied.
No. but we can do something else,
he said.
with that he cut a reed, tying some
moss on the end of it. Then he dug into
the earth, placed his reed in the hole
and packed the earth around the reed
He waited for a few moments.
Do you mean to say you can suck
water out of that thing2 asked.
Yes, if, rs think, there's water
near the surface.
He drew strongly at it with much
satisfaction.
Good, he remarked. Would you
like to try it2'
with little confidence in the result,
sucked at the reed with the surprising
result of getting plenty Of clear, pure
water. To my parohed tongue it seemed
the very nectar Of the gods.
It's as clear as the water of q

Yes, the moss is our filter, he re-
piled
