Indians Not Good Soldiers.

Washington May s.-Aftcr six years
OF experiment. the attempt 10 make
soldiers out of the Indians will be
abandoned. and the last company will
be mustered out at s'nrt Sill or tile
31st of May. The trouble has been
that the Indians will not endure dis
cipline and cannot be taTsnt regular
habits. They refuse TO get up at the
reveille call in the morning. and VIII
not go to bed when taps are sounded
at night. They neglect guard duty,
and will not perform The many iit,lc
services that are expected of enlisted
men in the regular army. When pun
ished for peccadillos they invariably
rebel. and their friends support them
in mutiny and naturalization. In
short. the untutor.d mind o. the red
man cannot comprehend the usefulness
of army regulati and while he Is
all right as scout on IL go-as-yon-
please commission. he Is useless when
tied down to the dan routine of gar
rison. or Il camp. The failure of this
experiment Is II great disappointment
to many humanitar'ans, who hoped
that n career might be fould for the
Indians in the military service Of the
United States.

Only persons under thirty years OF
age were ready to accept promptly Har-
vey's great discovery of the circulation
Of the blood; and just us youth is most
apt to respond to the touch of genius.
SO men of rare abilities seldom fail Of
the spirit of perpetual youth. Keeping
young is simply keeping abreast with
the times we are in. At the recent an
niversary in New York City Of the
founding of Stevens Institute, ex-Mayor
Hewitt related this incident: when
i was student at Columbia, base ball
was our only game, and not such det-
riment to college as tits to-day. We
lost most of our balls by knocking them
over into a yard Of house in Barclay

and could not get any base balls, l was
appointed q committee Of one to visit
the house and ask for some. A gen.
tleman appeared in answer to my ques-
tion, and producing a basket contain

NATIONAL MUNICIPAL LEAGUE.

Important Papers Read at the Meeting.
Louisville, Ky, May 6.-The second
DAVIS session of the National Munich
pal League was devoted mainly to the
reading of papers on topics which were
fully up to the expectation OF the lead
ers in the reform movement and the
greatest interest is becoming manifest.
Professor Frank f. Goodnow, of
Columbia University, read the first pa
per of the morning on the Powers of
n Municipal Corporation" He handled
the subject from n theoretical, histori-
cal and analytical standpoint.
Next came the reading of one Of the
clearest and most practical pnpers
read Mt the meeting, "The Exclusion
of Party Politics from Municipal Az
fairs, the Democrntic-European Meth
od." This paper was read by Frank NJ.
Loomis, of Buffalo. New York.
In the absence of Professor Rowe, of
the University of Pennsylvania, his pa
per on "American Political Ideas and
institutions in Their Relation to the
Condition of City Life" was read by
Professor II. T.. Boren, of Cleveland.
The last paper on the program was
that of DIR. Edmund ]. James, of the
University of Chicago, who read
"Homc Rule in American Cities"
This afternoon n reception was ten

gates by the Woman's Club.

session tomorrow morning and to-
morrow night the annual banquet will

together; and although, half carelessly,
half curiously, l turned my eyes toward
the man who was dancing about the
fire, l could not because of the f1tful
light and shade recognize his features.
All that could distinguish was that he
was a small-made man, with great
deal Of hair about his face.
We were almost starving. and our
next need was food We ate sparingly,
with some thought Of the morrow, and
after supper we talked in low, sad tones
OF those who had set sail with us full
OF life and strength and hope. and
who were now lying five-and-twenty
fathom deep at the bottom of the cruel
sea, Each told of what he had seen of
So-and-so and So-and-so, who were
lost, and We were none of us ashamed
of our tears. 1t was melancholy rec
ord. My own experiences on that
awful night. as lay helpless beneath
the mast, were listened to with deep in
terest and sympathy; and one said that
he had seen spar such as l described
floating toward the mouth of the cave,
but that he had lost sight of it almost
immediately.

It rs asserted by the defenders Of
trusts that in almost every instance
the formation of q trust has been fol-
lowed by decrease in the price OF the
product. This is true: but in most in
stances trusts have been formed to
check the downward tendency of prices
by interfering with the operation OF the
law Of supply and demand. Probably
there is no conspicuous instance of
lower prices following the organiza-
tion of 2 trust, in which the prices to
the consumer would not have fallen
still lower II the trust had not been
formed. The greatest objection to
trusts is that they are wrong in prin-
ciple. in that they interfere with a
fundamental law of trade.

Marvellous things are claimed ci
palmistry, not only by those who prac-
tice 1t as profession but by many who
have seen the prophecies of palmists
come true in actual life, says the New
York Herald. Telling the past by the
lines Of the hands is. however, almost
a new art. There is man in town
+ who believes he can do 1t, at least
SO far as marriages are concerned,
Still further, he claims that the linas
of the hand show whether marriage
in the past ended in divorce and which
party it was that obtained the divorce.

to her and they came together to me.

but the young woman investigated and

THE TARIFF BILL.
sennte's Measure below That of tho
House.

1 -
Washington, May S.-Members of
Congress, officials Of the treasury, and
the representatives OF mercantile and
manufacturing concerns who are here
In Washington are studying the new
tariff bill with great care. and most of
them find 1t more satisfactory than the
house bill, although such measures are
so complicated that It Is difficult for
the sharpest expert to comprehend
them without several days study. 1t
may be seen from a glance, however,
that 1t Is not a sectional bill. like that
which passed the House. 1t Is not a
New England bill. Tie favors OF pro-
lection are more evenly distributed,
and many Of the little items that caus.
ed SO much criticism In the House bill
have been stricken out. The average
duties imposed by the Senate bill are
much lower than those In the House
bill. They are lower than the McIIin-
ley bill of 1890. and are very little In
advance OF the present law In most Of
the schedules. While the calculations
are not yet completed, the average rate
Of duty Is thought to be thirty per
cent. less than the DIngley bill. II the
new duties that are imposed upon tea,
hides and some other articles are not
considered. There are 1912 amend.
ments. There are only three OF the
PIG pages which have not been
amended.
Senator McEnery. of LouIsian. says
that the sugar schedule Is exactly con-
trary to what he hoped for and ex-
pected 1t would be. and is very much
better for the trusts than for the pro-
ducers OF sugar.
Senator Allison says the Senate bill
will yield about S4O.OOO.OOO more rev.
enue than the House bill. He figures
$13.OOO.OOO additional from beer and
$1OyOOO,OOO additional from tea. He
says n substitute for the reciprocity
section will be reported to the Senate
in n few days. and that 1t will be n fea-
ture in which reciprocity will be recip-
roca1.
The New England people will make e
vigorous fight against the duties or
hides, but the senators from the cattle
States say that 1t must stay In the bill.
| 1t Is one of the few concessions made
| to the West. and will not make n DIFF
ference Of 5 cents pair In the cost
of shoes. The proposed duty on tea
meets with general approval. 1t has
| been recommended ~ all the tea mer-
chants In the United States. is not on
| ly good revenue producer. but will
prevent the importation of poor stun.
At present the United States gets all
| the worthless tea from China and
Japan. but 1t Is believed that w.t. n
duty imposed 1t will not be found prof
liable to ship the bogus article.

We sat about collecting dry wood.
and tearing 1t into thin shreds. and
after selecting sheltered spot. our
best skill was used In building up the
pile which we hoped soon to see blaz-
ing. There was an anxious discussion
as to who should strike the match. and
II was proposed that l should do 1t;
but my nerves were SO much shaken
that did not dare. One volunteered,
and to him 1t was entrusted. We
stood around him In a close circle, to
prevent the wind from getting to him,
and many a silent prayer went up for
the success OF the task he had under
taken. 1t was solemn moment, that.
let me tell you. and would have tried
the nerves of the bravest man. He
was successful, and we watched with
thankful hearts the Jets Of flame play
ing among the thin strips Of bark. We
stopped over 1t and drew warmth to
our bodies; and one man who. while
the match was being lighted. had stood
as If he were petrified, danced about

he says that If the remaining animals
