The Taxes We're Too High.

A New Yorker wanted to buy
the Draper hat factory building in
Middletown the other day. The
price of the building suited him.
The site was what he wanted, but
when he examined the whole taxes
of the property he said the taxes
were too much for him and he
would not buy. He could not
stand the high taxes. There were
other places to locate where taxes
were right.
A city or village may thus, you
see. SO increase its taxes, in the
way of improvements or other
wise. that it will injure the city OF,
village more than its officials can
help it by way of extravagant i'm
prOvementS.
The New York man would have
located in M1ddlctown. bought a
$4,000 building and setthe wheels
OF machinery in motion had not
the taxes been too high. For the
same reason hepassed by the city
of Passaic without even stopping,
although we have scores of deslr-
able mill sites.

A Fairy Grandfather.

Sir Edward Burne-Jones was much
distressed to see his favorite grand
son punished by being stood in the
corner with his face to the wall. So
he hit upon an expedient to beguile his
favorite during the period of penance.
The next time the wee man was sent to
the invariable corner he found it
charmingly decorated with fairies and
elyes, flowers ard trees, birds ard bum
ntes. "If he has to &c into the cor-
ner," commented Sir Edward. "he shall

A STRANGE RITE.
ONONDAGAS AND lROCUOIS TO RE-
VIVE AN ANCIENT CUSTOM.

"Burniag the White Dog"-An Indian Re-
Iigious Observance Which Few White
Men Have ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS That Pa
ganism is Gaining Ground.
The Onondaga Indians and their
brothers among the Iroquois are said
to be planning to revive the ceremony
of burning the white dog. This is one
of the most ancient religious rites of
the Iroquois nation, dating back far
beyond the time when the white man
first came to know them; but it has not
been observed of late, except at rare
and irregular intervals. The fact that
the Indians now wish to revive this
rite is only one of number of indica-
lions that go to show the firm hold
which the traditions of his race have
upon the red man.

TO be a member of one of the
orders of this period IS the ambi-
ton Of every young man whose
bosom expands with hopes of the
future. 1t has been stated that
there are between five and six
millions of men enrolled in the
various orders or fratern1ties-say
about one in every twelve or four
teen OF the entire population Of
the Grited States. If true, frater-
nall ,m is power in the land, and
if united. could sway the destinies
of America as they chose. But
this can never be-never will be,
never should be, because of the
differences iii nstlonalities, politics
religion, education, and social
caste-tor "caste" has much to do
with social distinctions in this
country as we'll as in the east.
But these fraternities are organ
lied for special purposes, princi-
pally social and benevolent. Most
young men seek admission for the
good to be derived from them and
the good thev may do; some from
curiosity; others for mercenaly
purposes. These latter soon drop
out, as the winnowing of the grain
secures the best and plumpest.
To such as enter for the first
reason there is a maneifcent field
for cultivation of the better nature.
There is room fo1 distinction and
development where the latent
principles exist, but nowhere is
there a place to manufacture
bcncvu!cHce where that bump has
no existence in the brain of the
neophite. AS was once written of
:e profession of the law, " there
is room above" so may be written
Of fraternity, there is room
above, and merit is sure to be
discovered and rewarded by being
selected for places of preterment
and honor; and we Woald say to
all Young rnan Of intelligence, who
possess qualifications for positions
of honor. "Success awaits you, if
your talents and zeal are not mis-
applied. Become member Of
Passaic Council of TIE National
Union and it Will do thee good.

SACRIFICE OF TEE SACRED WHITE DOGS.

The old English recipe, How to cook
a rabbit" started off by saying, First
catch the rabbit" So, in the sacrifice
of the dogs, the first and most difficult
thing was to secure a pair of white
dogs. In order to make the rite eff
fective it was considered necessary
that the dogs be perfectly white, with
out a dark hair on their bodies, and
the Indians would go almost any
length to secure such animals. The
dogs were treated with especial care,
and made as sleek and fat as possible
before the sacrifice. 1t was regarded
as a great honor to be appointed to
care fer these sacred beasts.
At the appointed time the braves and
their families gather at the council
house. The variety of bright colors in
the dress of both men and women
makes the assembly look like piece
of brilliant tapestry. Everybody is
smiling and happy.
First comes the dance. The crowd
gathers in silent rows about the long
hall, while the musicians occupy an
open space in the centre. A dried deer
skin is tightly stretched between up
right pests. This is the drum, which
is operated on by the chief musician.
Ills assistants have horns partly dlled
with shot, Or gOurds containing beans,
which they rattle in time with the
drummer. The music" that they
Il axe would ruin white mans nerves
in ah3Ht order, but it seems to fill the
Tl1i.us with The same sCrt of joy that
4 bog derives from firacrackers and tor
pcdOes. AS soon as the musicians
strike up the eldest chiet of the tribe
rises and begins shu1Iling about the
floor in time to the rattling gourds and
booming drum. The others follow in
the order of their rank. with the wo
men at a respectful distance. AS the
dance goes on the time quickens, until
presently a circle of leaping, shouting
savages is WhirlinS about the room, eX
ecuting the most grotesque and violent
figures. With short intermissions the
dance is kept up till almost morning,
when the dancers retire to prepare for
the final ceremony.
Just as the sun comes peeping over
the tree tops the braves alone gather
for the sacrifice. The two dogs are
dangling by their heels from a rude
wooden cross, and they have been care
fully strangled, SO that not a hair of
their smooth white bodies is ruffied
About their legs and necks are tied
bright ribbons, and their breasts are
covered with g2yly covered blankets.
A heap of brushwood has been
gathered, and the elder of the tribe
now proceeds to light it, always using
the spark from a flint, for only virgin
fire can be used for this solemn rite.
AS the pile blazes Up two young braves
spring forward, and, taking down the
bodies of the dogs, bear them to the
elder, who places them on the fire, at
the same time calling on the Great
Spirit to observe him. AS the blaze
rises higher the elder, or chief priest
as he might be called, throws handfuls
of dried odorous herbs upon the pile,
at the same time pronouncing an ora
ton to the Great Spirit for the benefit
OF his friends who are gathered about
This Grafton he keeps up until the fire
has burned itself out, and the victims
are entirely consumed.

Ga behalf of the little folks, we
beg to suggest to Sunday school
committees who have charge of
purchasing candies for Christmas,
that it would be better to give less
quantity and better quality than
mas been done in the past. Usually
the candy given in Christmas boxes
by Sunday-schools is stale and Of
such a cheap quality as to be unfit
to eat. We don't agree with the
prevailing idea with most COM
mitteenen thlt anything is good
enough for children.
1t is indeed strange how tickle
memory is. We know men who
can tell every hoof of stock owned
Dv their neighbors; can tell the
age of every child born in this
vicinity for the last thirty years;
can tell exactly in a moment how
much lis coming to them from other
people, but to save them from their
Whiskey they cannot remem Der
when their subscription expires.
The pre- eminent topic of the
day at this season of the year is
Christmas; Christmas festivities,
Christmas legends, customs, and
sym bols. The leading article of
the December number of Dem0rest's S
tells the story of "Christmas Chlnes
all over the world " The story is
told from the standpoint of human
interest. and is illustrated with
eleven fine pictures of the homes
of the most famous bells.
