A brave Kangaroo.

A very pathetic story comes from
Australia describing a 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
a 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
n from her pouch, held 1t 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 a few feet from the balcony
on which n Of her greatest foes was
sitting watching her. The little one,
having finished drinking, 1t. was re-
placed In the pouch and the old kan
CARGO started of at a rapid pace. When
the natural timidity Of the kangaroo
Is taken into account, It will be recog-
nized what astonishing bravery this
affectionate mother displayed.

say that he used all his power to keep
the Pottawattomies In that locality
from taking part In the massacre. and
himself went to st. Joseph to dissuade
Topinabee from taking his men there.
Pokagon dcabtless was with Topinabee
and was one OF those who received
Capt. Head at st. Joseph and helped
him to get to Mackinac 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 1897. and whose re-
mains lie In the city cemetery. though
In an unknown and unmarked grave.
Pokagon, after the treaty Of 1889, the
signing Of which nearly broke his
heart, az II took from him the homo 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 0vcr into Cass coun-
~. where, In the Silver creek district,
o few miles north OF Dowagiac, he es-
tablished another village and built a
church. He lived but n few years and
his ashes repose under the church,
which Is located In a picturesque spot
on the banks OF a charming little lake.

turns for the past few years, and more
brood mares have come upon the mar
ket than ever before in an equal space
Of time. Comparatively few foals have
been born, and prices are bound to rise
before long. Aside from all questions Of
value, few people who live In suburban
places care TO be without horses. and
the question OF housing them suitably
has to be met by a large proportion Of
builders. The carriage house and sta
BILE must be influenced more or less by
the nature Of the ground and the rela-
tive position OF the house to which Il
belongs. The general rule. Of course,
ID that It should be inconspicuous. or
II It is where II must be seen. It should
not suffer In comparison with the nm.
ished villa. At the same time It's sub
ordinate character must be born In
mind 80 that It may not detract from
the dignity Of the dwelling. eve u
the general style OF the house Ii fol-
lowed In the matter Of architecture.
The ornamentation must be far less
profuse and ornate. Extreme SIMPLE
ity combined with strong and artistic
lines always give the best results. The
accompanying plans show a stable that
would grace any suburban place. and

steamer Northwest, which travels the
Great Lakes in the United States, the
dimensions which I have read Of her
depth, length and beam-show that she
is hardly half as long as the Oceanic
will be, and of depth and beam proper
tionate thereto. She will be more than
a third larger than the steamships
which ply between San Francisco and
Japanese and Australian ports. She
will possess but two s~mokestacks, 1t
Is true. but either OF these are of suf-
ficient size to permit of an opening be-
ing made through them large enough
to admit of the passage Of . double
team from a farm wagon.
Her promenade deck is three blocks
long. There is almost sufficient space
to play a game Of base ball, and GER
tainly hand ball could be played With
out difficulty. 1t is among the plans
Of the builders Of the boat to so ar
range a portion Of the deck that golf
can be played thereon. Twenty-one
lifeboats, each capable Of carrying
forty-fve persons. will be secured to
davits On each side Of her upper works.
The captain, or whatever officer may
be upon the bridge, will have a prom
enade Of an eighth of a mile, when he
wishes the exercise. There will be as
much room in the main saloon as in
an ordinary theater. Regarding her
fittings, a representative OF the White
Star line, to which she will belong. told
me the other day that in point Of ele-
gance they would far exceed anything
now afloat. The arrangements for the
comfort Of the passengers in rough
weather will be such that 1t will re-
quire a very heavy sea indeed to make
one uncomfortable. 1t has been a COM
non source of complaint among trans
atlantic passengers that the furniture
Of a steamship was built on the land
principle-that is, as II the traveller
was never going to receive any shocks
or be likely to be thrown about. It is
the intention to remedy this difficulty
in fitting up the Oceanic, so that there
will be no hard corners for a passenger
to be thrown against, something that
would be very greatly appreciated.

THE DEAF GIRL UNDERSTOOD
Young Mans Tender Remark to nh
True Love.

Young Mans Tender Remark TO nb
True Love.
It doesn't always pay to express your
Utmost thought eve g~uardedly In tho
presence OF deaf mutes, says the Bos-
ton Record. A story was told at the
meeting Of the Woman Suffrage Asso-
citation yesterday afternoon which
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 q 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 countenances. Suddenly the
young man drew near to the one whom
he adored and said In a low tone, in
audible to those about him. q few SEEM
ingiy aftectionate words. The deaf girl
watched the proceedings with intense
interest and suddenly broke into q
broad grin. Her companion inquired
what 1t was that amused her. She
turned about 80 that the couple could
o see her and replied:
THAT man said. IL all these people
were not here I'd kiss you. II they
don't get out Of the way pretty soon I
shall have to before them The g,"
replied: Then ] shall scres H."
The deaf girl understood thei words
by the motion OF their lips.

THE LANGUAGE OF CRIME.
Of h Terms Are Very Inter
esting.

Some of the Terms Are Very Inter-
esting.
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. II bears the
same resemblance to the parent Ian
guage that n pile Of cogwhcels does to
a watch. They are not a watch, but
neither are they a new machine. Thus
we must regard the argot only as n
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 simpliled the pronunciation
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 its
attributes, is shown very clearly In his
synecdochical p~hraseology. Thus a
purse Is a leather; a street car Ia a
short, comparing Its length with a rail-
road car; n handkerchief is a wipe,
and a pair of shoes a pair OF kicks.
Again, some OF the terms appear to
be purely arbitrary and were 1t not
| that the creative power Is absent In
| criminals as in women I should not
hesitate to state 1t 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 ere.
ated would be in too distinct contra.
diction to all %obtainable evidence, In.
direct though 1t may be. Such expires.
sions are to kip. meaning to sleep; t.
spiel. to make a speech; jerve. a waist
coat pocket; thimble, a watch; to do
lam, meaning to III
Some of the expression are very dc
scriptive. To run from a police Officer
is to do a hot foot. A person who is al
ways listening to other peoples con
versation Is called a rubberneck. The
word push. meaning a crowd, is occa'
sionally seen in the newspape- q. To b,
arrested Is to be pinched; to be con.
victed is to fall. To refuse n persons
appeal is to give him the marble heart
Such expressions require no explana-
ton.

His business being known before

An optician of New York and Pitts

ing astigmatism, or q tendency to see

studies in Europe equipped him to quail

the titles Of oculist and optician both

less desirable one, spelled quack, 80 he
merely calls himself optician, and COM

"A. Swindle" is the name that APP

Cling lawyer In the city OF Stratford,

OF his writing out his name In full.

better and look better than the signif-

with tears In his eyes, whispered to him
that his name vas Adam, the friend
understood and was silent.
