saluted the red man. He talked and
asked questions, but the Indian replied
not word; he didn't even look up. He
sat and gazed into the water in silence.
In returning to his cabin Sherman met
a neighbor, and he related his unsuc-
cessful interview. "Well, sir, I've seen
lazy people," said he, "but that is the
first time l ever saw a man who was
too lazy to talk"
1t Is said that Sherman made 4 good
farmer. He was a hard worker, aid,
although he was somewhat queer, he
had many friends throughout the coun-
try. In the spring of 1860 he built n
new house on knoll a quarter Of a
mile from the cabin. 1t is yet in n good
state Of preservation, although it never
has been painted. o. T. Goodrich, a
jolly old farmer, now lives in 1T. and
he loves to tell of the ghost stories
which are aflOat about the old cabin.
The picture shows the house as it how
stands. 1t contains seven rooms. Sher-
man never occupied this house.
When Sherman was called away
from his farm he moved mis- few be-
longings from his cabin HON, and said
good-by to the old place. 1t has never
been occupied since, though at present
a farmer keeps his farm tools in it,
There has been some talk of tearing
down the old structure, hut there mas
been such vigorous objection made that
the project has been Abandoned New

Marco Polo Tells Of Charmers Who
Keep Away Sharks.
When you leave the island OF Seilan
and sail westward about sixty miles.
you come to the great province OF Maa-
bar, which is styled India the Greater;
It is the best Of all the Indies. and Is on
the mainland.
In this province there are FIVE kings.
who are own brothers. | will tell you
about each in turn. The province Is
the finest and noblest In the world.
At this end of the province reigns one
of those five royal brothers. who Is a
crowned king and his name Is Sonder
Bandi Davar. In this kingdom they
find fine and great pearls; and ! VIII
tell how they are got.
The sea here forms a gulf between
the Island of Seilan and the mainland.
And all round this gulf the water has
a depth Of no more than ten or twelve
fathoms. and in some places no more
than two fathoms. The pearl6shers
take their vessels, great and small. and
proceed into this gulf, where they stop
from the beginning Of April till the
middle of May. They go first to place
called Bettelar, and then go sixty miles
into the gulf Here they cast anchor
and shift from their large vessels into
small boats. The merchants divide in
to various companies, and each of these
must engage a number OF men on
wages, hiring them for April and half
Of May. OF all the produce they have
first to pay the king, as his royalty. the
tenth part. And they must also pay
those men who charm the great fishes.
to prevent them from injuring the
divers while engaged in seeking pearls
under water, one-twentieth part or all
that they may take.
These fish-charmers are termed
Abraiaman; and their charm holds
good for that day only, for at night
they dissolve the charms SO that the
fishes can work mischief at their will.
These Abraiaman know also how to
charm beasts and birds and every liv-
ing thing. When the men have got into
the small boats they jump into the
water and dive to the bottom, which
may be at depth of from four to
twelve fathoms, and there they remain
as long as they are able. And there
they find the shells that contain the
pearls, and these they put into net
bag tied round the waist, and mount
up to the surface with them, and then
dive anew. When they can't hold their
breath any longer they come up again,
and, after a little, down they 60 once
more, and so they go on all day. These
shells are in shape like oysters or sea-
hoods. And in these shells are found
pearls, great and small, Of every kind.
sticking in the flesh of the shellfish.
In this manner pearls are fished in
great quantities, for thence In fact
come the pearls which are spread all
over the world. And the king of that
state hath very great receipt and
treasure from his dues upon those
pearls.-St. Nicholas.

NO MORE SUGAR-BEET SEED.
Government Has Distributed Ten ThOus-

Government Has Distributed Ten Thous-
and Pounds Among Farmers.
Washington. May 18.-The sugar
beet seed which the agricultural depart
ment has been distributing is practic-
ally exhausted, about 10000 pounds
having been sent out to farmers in
about fonr-tifths of the states. The
seed has been distributed in packages of
an ounce to half pound, purely for
experimental purposes. The beets
grown from the seed will be analysed
and the saccharine matter determin
to ascertain where beets can be profit
ably grown for the production of sugar
These experiments, it is said, will be
of immense value, as the best undoubt-
eddy can be produced with profit in
many of the states. Wherever it can
be so produced, it will give the farmers
new crop.
All the surplus vegetable seed in the
possession of the agricultural depart
ment is being distributed through con-
gressmen or government agency to the
people in the flooded districts along the
Mississippi for planting as soon as the
waters subside.

ment trail. 1t faces the east and is
on an elevation. At present it is unoc-
cupied and the neighbors declare that
it is haunted.
The cabin timbers were laid in posi-
ton, the walls plastered, and the roof
fastened on by the hands of William
Tecumseh Sherman. He built and &C.
cupied this cabin in 1859. In 1853 he
was in the practice of law at Leaven-
worth, Kan. He found that the re-
ceipts were insufficient for his support,
and he decided to turn farmer for
while in an effort to add to his incoue.
To that end he purchased land in the
northeastern portion of Shawnee Coun-
ty, six miles north of Topeka. The old
military trail ran by the place on the
south, being a government thorough
fare between Forts LeavenwOrth and
Riley.
AS shown in the picture, the cabin
has two rooms. The general built only
one room, the other having been added
some time afterward. He built the por-
ton shown to the right in the picture.
He also dug a cellar under it, for Kan
sas was just as hot and dry then as
it is now. 1t did not take long TO make
the cabin ready for occupancy, and
Sherman, the farmer, was soon living
in his own domicile and tilling the rich
soil on his place.
Down on the east bank of the creek.
about half a mile from the cabin,
there was an old saw mill which was
owned and operated by an Indian Of
the POttawatOmie tribe, John Ogee.
The old fellow had saved up money
and built it, One Sunday morning
Sherman took 4 walk down by the saw
mill. Ogee was sitting on log, smok-
ing his long pipe and looking down into
the water. Sherman approached and
