Restricted to Reservations.


Executive Agent Fullerton, Of
the state fish and game commits
sion, today obtained an opinion
from Chief Justice Start and At
torney General Childs on the right
of Indians to hunt and fish off the
reservations.
District ATTORNEY Strlnner
claimed that these lddians had a
right to hunt and fish at will over
the state without regard to the
state laws.
The chief justice and attorney
general hold that they have nc
right outside of the reservation,
The issue was raised over the
application of Mr.. Stringer, before
the board Of pardons, for the re-
lease of two Indians arrested at
Wyoming for violation of the
game laws.

UNIFORM GAME LAWS.

The Michigan legislature re-
ceived h request from the legisla-
ture of Wisconsin asking for the
appointment of a commission to
work jointly with commissions ap-
pointed by The legislatures OF
Wisconsin, Minnesota and Illinois
to devise uniform game and fish
laws for the four states mentioned.
The commission will comprise
five members of the senate and
house, and the work provided for
will be done after the close of the
present session and before the
opening OF the Legislature of 1890.

A wonaaz Who Wouldn't.

An illustrative case Of 'the woman
who wouldn't" is reported from khar-
kofn. A pretty peasant maiden IN one
of the suburbg of that Russian city
was recently coerced by her relatives
into consenting to marry a small pro-
prietor OF the neighborhood for whom
she entertained q special dislike. The
wedding party appeared, a few days
ago, before the altar Of one of the city
churches. The service went on until
the officiating priest put the usual
question, "Wilt thou take this man"
etc '.@
The girl to this replied with an en-
phatic negative. and all the persua-
sions of her friends failed TO change
her resolution. The wedding party re-
turned to the house of the brides pa
rents, who again vainly endeayored to
shake the girls obduracy. The unfort-
unate and unwilling girl was then
soundly beaten, not only by her pa
rents but also by the friends of the
bridegroom.
She was carried back, weeping, to
church by the wedding party, and th
marriage service was recommended.
Again came the crucial question to the
bride and once more the unhappy girl,
with tears and bushes. resonantly ex-
claimed, "No; a thousand times, nor
and appealed to the protection of the
priest. which was readily granted

During the lart eight years the
Minnesota Agricultural Expert
ment Station has carried on quite
extensive experiments to determine
the adaptability of Minnesota 5
soil aud climate to the growing OF
sugar beets. Beets have been
grown at the station each year
and farmers in nearly every coun-
ty in the state have been induced
to make the experiment. The
general average of sugar extracted
in the eight years was over Il per
cent. the purity average being 90
per cent. For sugar making pur-
poses, an expert says, the beets
should contain at least u per
cent, sugar, and show a purity ot
so per cent. The conclusion OF
the officers of the station is that
sugar beets can be raised III
Minnesota with profit.

Deer-MiCe as Pets.

In st. Nicholas G.. Rafael O'Reilly
tells of a couple of queer pets
that he caught in the woods. The
writer says:
While rambling one evening in the
woods, / sat down on a rock close by
a shaded bank all overgrown with soft
green moss and feathery ferns. Not
far away there was an ancient tree
stump, with hole running in UNDER
meath it; and what should / see peep
ing out from the hole but the head Of
little reddish brown animal. At
first sight took it to be chipmunk.
It's large black eyes seemed full Of
apprehension, and as l moved it drew
back out Of sight.
On rolling over the stump, ! dis
covered beneath it some withered
grass carefully rolled into a globular
nest. Cautiously drawing my hand
kerchief around this, tied it up, with
whatever it contained, and hurried
,homeward with my treasure. On
.emptying the handkerchief into box
covered with wire gauze, / found that
/ had captured two beautifully deli
cate and elegant creatures, somewhat
larger than mice. Their fur was thick
and soft, rich velvet OF reddish
brown on the back, and snowy white
underneath. Their feet also were
white. But their chief beauty lay in
their eyes-great, black liquid orbs
half protruding from the head. No
gazelle ever had eyes half 80 lovely.
They soon became quite tame, and
without showing any fear would allow
me to put my hand into their cage to
give them fruits and berries. They
carried their nest into a corner Of the
cage and reconstructed it there
After about two weeks / procured
large cocoanut, sawed it in two, and
taking one half of it, made in it little
doorway. When l put this into their
cage, turned mouth down, they seemed
to go wild with the excitement of de-
light. In and out they ran through
the little doorway a hundred times in
succession. Sometimes they would
Jump up on top of the cocoanut and
survey it all over, and then, after
washing their faces" with their deli
cate white paws, jump down, and
again run inside. Soon they made up
their minds to take possession of it as
their home. Their nest in the corner
they pulled to pieces, and carried it
off mouthful by mouthfnl into the
little cocoanut hut. There they have
lived ever since.
During the daytime they sleep, but
when evening comes on they busy
themselves running and jumping
about the cage, and they have never
once in three years tried to gnaw their
way out.

EESS'ssbildr'S s;oluEpla

in Nuremberg and Furth, Germany.
where clever artisans are employed
by the numerous manufacturers to
design and mold them. The process
of manufacture is interesting. The
first step is to make sketches of the
intended figures. Great pains are be-
slowed on them. The best artists in
Germany do not hesitate when asked
to supply models for these toy soldiers,
and in making their drawings they
have to bear in mind certain fixed
rules. Their sketches must be
colored. They must avoid deep tints
and select only bright, gaudy colors,
which children so much prefer. They
must also possess full knowledge of
the military costumes of the period to
which the soldier they represent be-
longs. This year the Turkish and
Greek soldiers are the leading favor
ties.
"At Nuremberg and Furth slate
molds are used for the plain figures,
while brass molds are employed for
those in relief. The slate for the
former is bought at Sonneberg, in
Thuringia, and the tin, which is pur-
ehased-in England, is melted and
poured into them through small
orifice.
"The metal soon hardens when it
has been poured in, and the workman
then removes the figures, cutting off
any excrescences which may have
been caused by the molten metal
running over the interstices.
"The soldiers then have to be
painted, and this is always done by
women, who work at home, and are
given certain number of figures upon
piece of wood slit up the centre, so
as to hold them in a fixed position.
When one side of the figure is dry
the woman turns it around and paints
the other side. Her wages are very
poor. The final process, also in
trusted to women, is that of packing
the soldiers, which are placed in boxes
of thirty, sixty, 1870 or 240 pieces,
weighing one-eighth, one.quarter, one
half or one pound for the infantry, and
of twelve, twenty-four, forty-eight, or
ninety-six pieces of the same weight,
for the cavalry"

Household Hints,

To prevent bruise from becoming
discolored, apply water as hot as can
be borne comfortably, changing the
cloth as soon as it loses it's. heat. II
hot water il not to be had at once,
inoistcn some dry starch with cold
water and cover the bruised part with
il.
When tablecloths are beginning TO
wear out in the folds, cut two or three
inches Of one end and one side and re-
hem them. This process will change
the places Of the folds and will add
new life to the cloth. Napkins aud
towels may be treated in the same
way
Cold roasted or boiled fowl can be
made into croquettes, salads and en-
trees. Tough ends OF steak are good
when made into Hamburg steak. All
fat frohl meat can be clarified and kept
for frying. Doughnuts and fritters
are much better fried in drippings
than in lard
In the cleaning Of stove, il little
soap is used twill tighten the labor.
Wet flannel cloth and rub il over
piece Of soap, then dip the cloth into
the stove polish and rub over the
stove; finish with dry cloth or brush.
It Is said tho polish will last much
longer than IL IL is used without the
soap.
Instead OF throwing away the wick
Of lamp that has got too short, fasten
IL to the new wick, which then can be
made TO do longer service. After
lamps are filed and wicks trimmed
turn them down, thus preventing the
oil from coming over the outside and
causing the unpleasant odor Of oil
ip the room.

Badly PLAYED.

Mr.. w. II. Preece, the well known
electrician, tells an amusing story
about the early days of the telephone.
That the Queen might test the new
invention, he put Osborne, Portsmouth
and London in communication, and
arranged that band should play
while her majesty was at the other end
of the instrument.
The Queen was detained, says the
Youths Companion, and before she
arrived the band had been sent away.
But happy thought struck Mr..
Preece. Why not himself act as the
band? He stepped to the instrument
and hummed into it "God Save the
Queen" and asked il her majesty rec
ognized the tune.
"Yes," she said, at was the ma
tional anthem, but very badly played"

We Live on n Narrow Margin.

|"
A very small change in the present
condition of our earth would immedi-
ately kill every human being upon its
surface. An eastern writer COM
ments on the fact that we live on a
very narrow margin. A little more
heat or little more cold, and we die.
Our existence depends on keeping
changes Of temperature within range
of about per cent. of what we know
as possible extremes. If the moon
were very much larger the tidal wave
would carry the entire ocean twice n
day over the surface of the earth, Ii
the earth were much smaller we would
lose our atmosphere. If it were much
larger we could not stand upright
more than five minutes, nor would we
be able to mount hill except by
painful crawling. If the year were
twice as long as it is it is doubtful
if we could raise food enough in the
summer to carry us through the
winter or if we could survive the
accumulated cold In every way our
earth lies just at the meeting point of
two kinds of death, which con this
bank and shoal of time" We must fight
with either hand. 1t makes no differ
ence whether we have fitted ourselves
to the earth through long series of
evolution or whether it was fitted to
us, as far. as we know it is the only
inhabitable spot in the universe, and
the chances are almost infinite that no
other is so favorably located. Let us
make the most we can of it.
