sessed to proceed. I retired a few paces warning the boats crew to keep a good lookout, and especially from the bush end Of the village, where the man ran to. I invited the dusky damsels to come to me, if they objected to my visiting them; but no, l must return whence I came; they had seen me, that was enough. No, my friends; we must meet and you will have some presents
 Effect of Beads.
 1T held up my beads and red cloth, but, strange to say, they seemed to have no effect on that strange crowd. I never saw so many women together. How were we to meet? was the question; to be baked by them would never do. I threw on the beach piece of red cloth and few beads; walked away quite carelessy and appar- ently not noticing what was taking place. A girl steals from out the crowd, stops, turns, eyes fixed on me; advances, stops crosses her hands, pressing her breast. Poor thing, not courage enough; so, light ming speed, back. It is evident the old ladies object to the younger ones attempt- ing, and they are themselves too fright ened. Another young damsel about nine or ten years old comes out, runs, halts, walks catlike, lest the touch of her feet on the sand should waken me from my re- Yerie; another halt, holds her chest, lest the spirit should take it's flight or the pat tering heart jump right out. I fear 1t was beyond the slight batter then, and had reached the stentorian thump of serious times. On rush; well done! She picks cloth and beads up.
 Left Qurrel Behind.
 'I have gained my point and will soon have the crowds-no need to wait so long to have the baits picked up now, and after a few more such temptings it is done. am beSieged by the noisiest crowd I have ever met and am truly glad to escape on board the boat. We went to the vessel, and brought her round to the west side, where we anchored, and I again landed Crowds met me on the beach, but no men. l gave my beads indiscrminately, and soon there was quarrel between the old ladies and the young ones. The latter were or dered off, and because they would not go, l must go. The old ladies insisted on my getting into the boat, and, being now as- sisted by the few men we met in the canoe, thought 1t better to comply Long after we left the beach we heard those old cracked, grabbed voices anathematisine the younger members of the community
 "I am fully convinced that this is the Woman's Island, and can easily account for its being called so by stray canoes from the westward"

os Buffalo grass To the people who re- side in these desolate repions a dog farm is the gift of Providence. There is water to be had, as a rule, within a reasonable distance, and the cattle which the dog farmer is forced to keep in order to furnish his dogs fresh meat find ample living upon the dry grass
 To the humanitarian, who shudders at the thought of the poor dogs being stran- ged, it may be a source of qualification to know that up to the time of their death these canincs are unquestionably the best cared-for and best-fed dogs of which any civilized community can boast. In or der that their fur shall be of the best, they must of necessity be well cared for, and they suffer no hardships.

A QUEER INDUSTRY.
Dog Farming on Quite Large ScaIe-Fur
 Used for Clothing.

From the Philadelphia Times.
 The Chinese are the only breeders of dogs in the world, but, strangely enough, and contrary to popular belief, they do not breed them to eat, but for their fur. In that portion of China adjoining Mongolia and known as Manchuria, there are thou sands of farms which are devoted exclu- sively to the breeding of dogs.
 It is estimated that there are at least S50,00O dogs in Manchuria, the percentage of increase each year being twenty-five. There are between 400 and 300 of the animals each dog farm at all times. Some of these are used solely for breeding purposes, but the majority are slowly strangled to death at the age of eight months, generally about the middle of the winter, in order to get their skins, as the fur is the best at that time of the year.
 There are no dogs in the United States like these specimens of the Chinese canine for the hair of their coats is silky and beautiful beyond compare. In some 1n- stances it runs to the length of fully six inches. and makes the best kind of fur clothing. That is exactly what the dog farmers raise the animals for. It is the manchura dog and not the sheep which supplies the material for the garments of the Manchurian, be he rich or poor.
 The extent of dog farming can be best realized by considering that out of the IT, 900, 900 persons who inhabit the three prov inces of Manchuria, three-fifths are dog farmers.
 In the south, Manchuria is mountainous and densely wooded but in the northern portions it is chiefly prairie and grass land. From the river Amur, the north boundary of Manchuria, about half way to the south ern boundary, found theg reater DOT tion ofsdog farms. They also line the banks of the Sungari river for almost its entire 1,200 miles of length. Oddly enough, these dogs never interfere with the great herds of cattle that are also bred on tho prairies, and neither do they in the least injure the millet, barley, tobacco and oats on the farms which dot the dog breeding country.
 Many persons have an idea that the only dog that is raised in China is a small grey hound with somewhat terrier-like head, muzzle more elongated than in the terrier, and with skin almost destitute of hair, like the Mexican variety so often seen in this country. It is true that the Chinese do raise this sort of dog. but that is the one which is eaten.
 There are some portions of Manchuria in the north which resemble in great de- gree the wind swept prairies of Western Kansas. Here little grows in the way of vegetation except scraggy. tough grass something like that western product known

THE BOYS CHOICE.
Mountain Comparison Which Include Repre-

From the Washington Star.
 "One day during last October" said a representative from one of the southern states, 'I had occasion to get out into the mountains from one of the interior county seats where I had some law business. My the wife of a mountain farmer, and when the work was done I was asked to remain to dinner. It was not entirely to my lik- ing, for I knew wbat kind of dinner meant, but could not decline the invita- tion. It was very homely affair, indeed, cornbread and bacon being the leading viands. At my right sat a boy of fifteen, who was rather foxy ycungster, though he had never been beyond the limits of the county. He was quite inquisitive after he had made start and during the course of his inquiries became personal

TWO OF A KIND.
The Death of Bold Bandit and Highwayman
 and His Wife.

From the Chicago Journal.
 The last of the Bass bandits was killed yesterday, and the people of New Mexico breathe freely and without a certain apre- hension of evil for the first time in thir- teen years. He was a bad man and the officers did valiant service to their state when they laid him low. But it took three good lives to pay for his own, for when the two members of Black Jacks gang who were with him put spurs to their bronchos and galloped away over the trail Frank Ophallard coolly dismounted and swinging his Winchester into it's place, killed three of the sheriff's posse before man had a chance to send a bullet into his heart Then one of the guards fired and the bandit fell-smilingly, and towards them. But they had not moved a dozen feet when a woman darted out of the woods and, with a low cry, sprang toward the dead man and threw herself down upon his crimsoned breast. She was not fair or young; the wild and hunted life in the mountains is not apt tc leave wo- mans face tender or comedy; and her hair hung in gray masses over her shoulders
 A moment she bent over the outlaw, making the pitiful, inarticulate cries of a dumb creature grieving; then she turned her hopeless eyes on the laws represent atives.
 ''so ye've killed him at last have yer" she said. q knowed it was comin' an top him. But would he harken? Never! Ye think ye had right to kill him like a wolf in trap? Well, while I'm left the gang aint quite gone, I tell yep
 She raised the bandits rife and before they dreamed of what she would do sent Q ball, another, and another whizzing; then, as the three shots went wild, she threw it down and snatching knife from her gar ter. raised 1t in one dark, sinewy arm and plunged it in her bosom.
 So Frank Ophallard went down to death on the Mexican border and so the woman who had loved him bore him company.

From the Aurora (Mo) News.
 We have returned frcen our Kansas City trip and was never touched" Two years ago fellow touched us for about s1O while in that bloomin' town, but we suppose he was not aware of the fact of our presence in the city yesterday. However, our money was distributed as equally as possible about our clothes this time, having secreted 15 cents in one vest pocket and 10 cents in another, while a quarter in silver was hid away in the recesses of one pants pocket and in the other was half a dozen six-penny nails, which we would stir up every time a suspicious looking character brushed up against us in order to attract attention from the real hiding place of our wealth.
