A Brave Kangaroo.

A very pathetic story comes from
Australia describing kangaroo's dar-
ing for the sake of her young. The
owner of a country station was sitting
one evening on the balcony outside his
house when he was surprised to notice
kangaroo lingering about, alternate
ly approaching and retiring from the
house, as though half in doubt and fear
what to do. At last she approached
the water pals, and, taking a young
one from her pouch, held it to the wa
ter to drink. While the baby was sat
isfying its thirst the mother was quiv-
ering all over with excitement, for she
was only few feet from the balcony
on which one of her greatest foes was
sitting watching her. The little one,
having finished drinking, it was re-
placed in the pouch and the old kan
CARGO started off at rapid pace. When
the natural timidity of the kangaroo
is taken into account, it will be recog-
nized what astonishing bravery this
afectionate. mother displayed.

say that he used all his power to keep
the Pottawattomies in that locality
from taking part in the massacre, and
himself IL went to ST. Joseph to dissuade
Topinabee from taking His men, there.
Pokagon doubtless was with q pinabee
and was one Of those who received
Capt. Head at St. Joseph and helped
him to get to Maekinac and Detroit.
The most authentic records Of the mas
sacre to be had give the credit Of as
sisting Capt. Head and his wife to
escape to John Baptiste Chandonia, a
nephew Of Topinabee, and who died
at South Bend in 1887, and whose re-
mains lie in the city cemetery, though
IN an unknown and unmarked grave.
Pokagon, after the treaty of 1888, the
signing Of which nearly broke his
heart, as it took from him the home of
his childhood and old age and scatter
ed his people broadcast over the land,
remained at the old town for several
years, then went over into Cass coun-
I5ty, where, in the Silver creek district,
few miles north of Dowagiac. he es-
tablished another village and built a
church. He lived but few years and
his ashes repose under the church,
which is located in picturesque spot
on the banks Of a charming little lake.

The great vogue of the bicycle, the
extension Of trolley railroads, and the
introduction of the auto Mobile cabs,
have called out many dismal predic-
tions from the horseman. The public
has been told times without number
that the reign of the horse is forever
over. In illustration of this statement
theunpr ecedentedly low prices at which
horses have lately been sold are quoted, =
and there comes grewsome stories from
the wild and Woolly west of the shoot
ing OF entire herds of horses on the
ranges, in order to save the pasture for
the more valuable beef creatures. AS
supplement to these tales, it is ever;
said that canning factories have been
established, where horsefesh is put up
IN potted form for unsuspecting for
eigners. The para graphers and car
toonists have had their fling at the
subject, and if one should take the
signs of the times, everything would
seem to point to the virtual extinction
| OF the equine species in the not remote
future. But those who love mans best
friend and servant among the dumb
beasts, and who do not care to surren-
der him for steeds of steel or naphtha
fed cabs, need not be unduly alarmed.
In fact, horse flesh would seem to be
an excellent investment at this very
moment With the fall in prices that
was due to a variety of seasons, horse

Utmost thought even guardedly in the;

showed conclusively the wisdom of the
above remark A devoted couple who
apparently, had been long separated
were thrust suddenly into each others
company at a largely attended recep-
ton. The lady who told the, story said
that she was present in company with
an educated deaf girl. The happy re-
united pair displayed fully the thoughts
that were in their hearts by the beam
upon their count enances. Suddenly the
young man drew near to the one whom
he adored and said in low tone, in
audible to those about him, few seem
ingly affectionate words. The deaf girl
watched the proceedings with intense
interest and suddenly broke into al
broad grin. Her companion inquired
what it was that amused her. She
turned about so that the couple could,
not see her and replied:

THE LANGUAGE OF CRIME.

Some OF the Terms Are Very Inter
Il esting.
n Every language has a syntax pecul-
lar to itself, but in the patois of the
criminal no attempt is made of chang
ing anything but the lexicon, says the
Popular Science Monthly. It bears the.
same resemblance to the parent Ian.
guage that pile of cogwheels does to
a watch. They are not watch, but
neither are they new machine. Thus
we must regard the argot only as a
dialect in which debased terms replace
the words of the parent tongue, in
which the innate laziness of the Grim
inal has effaced all words of any length
and has simplified the pronunciation
wherever the correct form requires
anything but an elementary combina-
ton of sounds.
Let us examine some of these trans
formations and synonyms.
The general tendency of the criminal
to reduce the abstract to the concrete
to denote the substantive by one of it's
attributes, is shown very clearly in his
synecdochical phraseology. Thus a
purse is a leather; a street car is a
short, comparing it's length with rail
road car; a handkerchief is wipe,
and a pair Of shoes pair of kicks
Again, some of the terms appear tc
be purely arbitrary and were it not
that the creative power is absent in
criminals as in women I should not
hesitate to state it as a fact. But ii
seems wiser to conclude merely that
the origin of these terms has become
a fact. To suppose that they were Gre
ated would be in too distinct contra:
diction to all obtainable evidence, in.
direct though it may be. Such expires.
sions are to kip, meaning to sleep; tc
spiel, to make speech; jerve, a waist
coat pocket; thimble, a watch; to do {
lam, meaning to run.
!. Some of the expression are very de
scriptive. To run from a police Officer
is to do hot foot. A person who is al
ways listening to other peoples con
versation is called a rubberneck. The
word push, meaning crowd, is occa
sionally seen in the newspapers. To b.
arrested is to be pinched; to be con
victed is to fall. To refuse a person.
appeal is to give him the marble heart
Such expressions require no explana
ton.

Japanese in Hawaii,

The little republic of Hawaii is en-
barassed by an extraordinary influx of
Japanese immigrants, stimulated by
immigration societies working with the
encouragement if not actually as agents
Of the government Of Japan. The ia
panese in the islands already are more
numerous than the people of any other
nationality, except the native Hawaii
ans. Various forms Of restriction i'm
posed by the Hawaiian government
were evaded by the immigrants, until
at last the government forbade the land
ing of a ship load Of Japanese, and or
dered them sent back. Japan claims
the privileges OF free immigration I'M
der an old treaty, and appears to be
using them to carry out plan Of ytr.

Cuban Retaliation.

It is painful 10 recognize the fact that
unless the Hanna administration can be
induced or forced into performing its pIa m
duty In connection with the Cuban stua-
ton, we are likely to hear of Cuban re-
taliation for Spanish atrocities, as far
as execution of prisoners is concerned,
which. however justifiable under the cir
cumstances, can but add new terrors to
the picture OF the war.
For two years the Cuban generals and
armies have adhered reIigiously to the laws
and rules of civilized warfare. They have
gone beyond them in the prompt relea
of prisoners, and In the conveyance of
wounded Spaniards, left on the field Of
battle. to within the lines of their friends.
An this time the Spaniards have been
numbering Cuban prisoners of war, sIaugh-
tering sick and wounded Cuban soldiers in
hospitals, together with their nurses and
surgeons, and outraging and butcheriny
