Costly Marriage Licenses.

The Chickasaw legislature, now in
session at Tishamingo, Ind. T., has
passed law which is intended to stop
white men from marrying Indian wo-
men by taxing them 5000 for mar
riage license.
There are about 10, 900 full blooded
Indians in the Chickasaw tribe, while
the others are about so, 600 in number,
and are half and quarter bloods, and
among them are many squawmen.
These squawmen are white men who
have married Indian women and set
tied upon Indian lands. This practice
is not to the liking Of the full blooded
Indians, but they were powerlcss
until recently. At the last tribal
election the full bloods, for the first
time in 20 years, got control Of the
council. Since then they have made
life burden for the half-breeds aud
squawmen. Many laws have been
passed detrimental to their interests,
but the most effective action of all
was taken last week, when the price
Of marriage license was raised from
$50 to 5000. This is applicable only
to white men who would marry Indian
women. Considering, however, that
the average Chickasaw girl has tribal
property to the value Of about 50, ,000,
the marriage license may not yet
affect the shrcwd white SPECTATORS
who have been marrying the Chick
asaw Leles for revenue only Chicago

Magnets That Lift Red.Ilut Steel.

Think of magnet that will lif five
tons of red-hot steel. Not only that,
but magnet that will pick up half
dozen huge steel plates and drop them,
one at a time, with as great regularity
as the farmer sows his corn. This is
not what might be, but what actually
is, "rhe Boston Transcript asserts,
aud any one who cares to visit plate
mill can see this electric marvel exc
cuted hour by hour. The magnets
almost seem endowed with human in
telligence, SO cleverly, so quickly, so
quietly do they conduct themselves.
No machinery could be more regular
and certainly none more satisfactory.
The very attraction of Ogravitation
itself seems hardly more wonderful
than he ligh,ness and swiftness with
which these great pieces of magnetic
ed steel pick up the steel plates that
would require derrick to hoist under
any other circumstances. They J.ick
them up as easily as you would take
penny from he table ad place them
in the desired spot just as lightly as
you would place that penny in your
pocket.
Magnets for this work in connection
with an electric travelling crane are
specially well adapted for handling
plates, as the connections to the mag
nets are placed on the bridge of the
crane in the same manner as the con-
nections for the operating motors.
After the magnet is placed on the
plates to be lifted, the electric con-
nection is made by means Of an ordi-
nary switch placed in q convenient
position in the operators cage. The
magnets are so designed that they are
practically waterproof and can be used
for handling plates and other materi-
ais out-of doors. The double-pole
magnets can handle. with safety five
tous of metal, and for this only require
about four amperes, with a two hun
dred and forty volt current.
The concentris pole magnet, as one
of these in use is termed, was especi-
ally designed for handling the hot
plates and ingots Of steel. In fact,
there has been NO difficulty whatever
in handling six thousand or eight
thousand pound ingot at low red
heat. This latter feature seems one
of the most wonderful. AS labor
saving apparatus, the huge magnets
are beyond compare. They work
swiftly and silently, and save an i'm
mense amount of time. In fact, the
limit Of their speed of action has
never yet been discovered, because it
has never been considered wise to test
them to their fullest capacity.

Sumtcl''s Flagstaff.

In Gen. Corbin office, at the war
department, is a section of the flag
staff from which foated the Stars aud
Stripes over Fort Sumter when the
garrison stationed there struck it's
oolors April IA, 1861, and left the
fort in the possession of the Confede-
rates. The staff was of yellow pine,
ard the piece in Gen. Corbin's 8 Office
is about one foot long and nearly the
same in diameter. 1t is bound with a
brass hoop half an inch wide to pre-
vent splitting, and where it is cracked
the wood looks like new, and thirty
eight years time has not made many
rayages upon it.
Major Robert Anderson was in COM
mand of the famous fort when it sur
rendered, and with his own hands
haulcd down the colors, but four years
later, after he had won his spurs and
ranked as Major General, he raised
the flag on the same staff, from which
lie had lowered it four years earlier.
After the ceremonies attending the
Nag-laising were concluded, the staff
was divided into sections, and one
piece was sent to the war department.,
where it has since remained.-Wc

and he told her to say it herself. Then
they both went at it, and midway of
their sybillant mouthings somebody $
temper began to get frayed at the
edges. She said that Boston people
speak abominably, anyway, and he re-
torted tn quoque, about the Georgia
dialect. From discussion of speech
they came to discussion of manners,
and things were said which it were
painful to repeat. The engagement
was broken, as I said, at 9:45 o'clock.
