DON'T WoRRY.-Don't worry about
something that you think may hap
pen tomorrow, because you may die
tonight, and tomorrow will find you
beyond the reach of worry. Don't
worry over thing that happened yes
terday, because yesterday is a hun.
dred years away. If you don't believe
it, just try to reach after it and bring
it back. Don't worry anything about
that is happening today, because today
will last only Is or 90 minutes. Don't
worry about things you can't help, be-
cause worry only makes them worse.
Don't worry about things you can
help, because then there's no need to
worry. Don't worry at all. If you
want to be peniteut now and then it
won't hurt you a bit, it will do you
good. But worry, worry, worry, fret,
fret, fret-why, there's neither sorrow,
penitence, strength, penance, reforma-
.tion, hope nor resolution in it. It's
merely worry.

my days in peace and leave my family
something of which the members will
be proud-a good name."
When asked what he thought would
become of the North American Indian,
Geronimo hesitated a moment and
then, pointing to the west, replied:
"The sun rises and shines for time,
and then it goes down, sinking out of
sight, and is lost. So it will be with
the Indian. When I was boy my
old father told me the Indians were as
many as the leaves on the trees, and
that way off in the north they had
many horses and furs. I never saw
them, but I know that if they were
there they have gone now and the
white man has taken all they had.
1t will be only a few years more when
the Indians will be heard of no more
except in the books that the white
man writes. They are not the people
that the Great Father loves, for if they
were he would protect and care for
them. They have tried to please him
but they do not know how. Schools
are good things for the Indian, but it
takes many years to change his nature.
If an Indian boy goes to school and
learns to be like white boy, he comes
back to the agency and there is moth
ing for him to do but put on a blanket
and be like an Indian again. This is
where the government is to blame.
When it takes our children away and
educates them, it should give them
something to do, not turn them loose
to run wild at the agency. Until that
time comes, educating the Indian is
throwing money away. What can an
educated Indian do out in the sage
brush and cactus 1?
II am an old man, and can't live
many years, so this don't trouble me
much but before I die I should like
to see the Indian have the same chance
as the colored people or the poor
whites. There will be no more big
Indian wars. The Indians fighting
days are over, and there is nothing
left for them to do but to be beg
gars and live on charity around the
agencies"

BACK TO FRANCE.-An American
lately returned from several years of
travel in Europe, tells of an instance
of New England thrift which came
under his notice.
SIN Italy," he said, telling the story
to a friend, "the authorities seem to
have wonderful faculty for scenting
out dutiable articles, and the traveller
over the borders {eom France often
finds himself relieved of an unexpect-
edly large sum on this account.
~ was one of party of Americans
who crossed the border in a comfort
able carriage one day last year. Our
host was a wideawake Connecticut
man, generous with his money, but
determined not to part with it foolish
ly, when he could avoid doing 80.
"There were five in the party, and
among other supplies for our delecta-
ton on the road, was basket of
grapes. We started shortly after
breakfast, and in an hour were over
the border in Italy. We were prompt
ly assailed by a levyer of duties, who
pounced upon the grapes, and de-
manded good sum for them as i'm
ported articles.
"'No, sir said the Connecticut man,
firmly, caring little whether what he
said was understood by the official, as
he intended to make his meaning clear
by action mo, sir, we'll eat our lunch
con in France, sooner than pay for
those grapesP
Sand before any one realized what
he was doing, back we were in France
again, where We sat, eating our grapes
in. the very faces of the Italians, though
without quite as much relish as we
might have had an hour or two later"

Foreign Governments Want to Find Out
bow We Train Our Naval Gunners.
New York Sun.
WASHINGTON, October 10.-Ever
since the battle of Manila bay foreign
governments have made efforts to
obtain from the United States the
secret of the wonderful proficiency
in firing which the gunners of the
American navy have attained. Naval
attaches in Washington have been
particularly active in seeking infor-
nation about the method of training
the men behind the guns, the cost
of such training measured by the
amount of money expended for target
practice, the character of the gunners,
how long it look to attain efficiency
and all other data bearing on the SUBJ
ject. After the naval battle of San
tiago the inquiries of the attaches
became more numerous, and since
active hostilities ended the navy
department has been importuned with
greater diplomatic persistency.
7 Heretofore it has been customary
for the United States government to
furnish freely such information to
foreign naval and military attaches
in Washington, but there has never
been a reciprocal exchange of data.
The department has recently decided
to keep to itself much of the informa-
ton that it so courteously furnished
heretofore, while system of give and
take has been inaugurated with refer
ence to other material wanted by
foreign governments that need not
necessarily be kept secret. When
foreign naval attaches now apply to
the navy department for information
that could properly be furnished they
are told that the request will be COM
piled with if the governments to which
the attaches hold allegiance will give
to the United States certain informa-
ton in exchange. A case in point is
that of an attache of great European
country, who asked a few days ago for
some naval gunnery drill books. The
naval attache of the United States at
the capital of the foreign government
had been epdeavoriug vainly to secure
some data which the navy department
believed to be valuable. The foreign
attache was informed that he could
have the drill books if the request of
the American attache in his country
was complied with.

OLD GERONIMO'S WISDOM.
Talk With the Once Famous
Enemy of the Whites.

Geronimo, the notorious Apache
chief, on last Monday, when asked
by Captain Merar, the military man
in charge of the Indian congress
what be thought of the Minnesota
Indian war, said:
"The Minnesota Indians will SET
that they haye made a great mistake
in going on the warpath."
Old Geronimo is one of the Indian:
now in the camp at the Indian con
gress. Geronimo was for years The
most troublesome Indian in the coun
try. He is now probably 70 years
old. He was born in New Mexico
and for years was a herder working
for Spaniards who owned ranches in
the territory. When about 81 years
old he conceived the idea that he haC
been wronged by the whites, and from
that time until his final surrender tc
General Miles in 1886, was almos,
continually on the warpath. Today, af
ter being informed that the Minnesota
Indians were fighting the United
States troops, Geronimo said through
his interpreter
"When 1 say that the Minnesota In
dams have made a mistake l know
whereof 1 speak. From long expe
rience in both war and peace, 1 know
that it is better to submit to great
wrongs than to fight the United States
Years ago the Indians made up great
nations, but now they have gone never
to return. We have got to give up
our old ways and take on those of the
whites. There are only a few Of US
left and we are herded in like lot Of
sheep, so that it is foolish to 20 to war
The young men of the tribes will never
know anything Of war, except as the
tales are told by the old men.
II have never been in Minnesota,
but I hear that up there and for hum
dreds of miles beyond, the white men
are as many as the blades of grass
If this is so, what can a few poor In
dians do in fight? They are making
great mistake and are very foolish.
For years l fought the white men,
thinking that with my few braves l
could kill them all off and that we
would again have the land that our
Great Father gave us and which be
covered with game. I thought that
the Great Spirit would be with US and
that after we had killed the white men
the buffalo, the deer and antelope
would come back. After had fought
and lost, and after 1 had travelled over
the country in which the white man
lived, and saw his cities and the work
that he had done, my old heart was
ready to burst. I knew that the race
of the Indian was run and that there
was nothing left but to submit to the
law.
"When I discovered that we were
hopelessly defeated l told my people
that we would give up the fight and
accept such terms of peace as we could
get from the whites. While | am a
prisoner of war and have been for
years, l feel that am better of than
most of the Indians of the country.
The government has confidence in me
and has appointed me scout, which
is the same as an Indian police in the
northern agencies. expect to end

TJARIIITy For PENSIONS "There

LIABILITY For PENsIoNs.-"There
is another important consideration, "
says the Norfolk Landmark, "when
an enlisted man is mustered out of the
army with the germs of disease, OBJ
tanned during military service, in his
system, the future fate of the soldier
is not regarded by the able statisti-
clans who are trying to establish the
efficiency of our war department.
Nevertheless, anyone will admit that
the death of such man is as certain
ly attributable to his military career
as it would be had he died before be-
ing discharged. AS bearing upon this
important point, DR.. Roberts, the SAN
itary superintendent of Greater New
York, reports that in the month of
September there were 339 cases of ty-
phoid fever in that city 'emanating
directly and indirectly from the service
of the United States army Every
day, and in nearly every section of the
country, deaths are reported from fever
directly traceable to service atield and
in camp, and a great many of the men
who thus pass away have been mus
tered out of the service. Their cases
are not considered in the adjutant gen.
erals office" Probably the dead bri.
pade would number four regiments
instead of three if all the returns were
and Courier.

WELL DoNE.-How the Hodkins
geese were kept off the Podkins prem
ises is an interesting story related by
the Philadelphia Record, and CON
densed below:
The geese strayed for forage, as
geese will, and sometimes invaded the
Podkins front lawn.
Mrs. Podkins, kindly soul, said she
'dihn'l want ter git tn men folks
a-scrappin' and a-mixin' things up
over passel O. geese" So she organ
lied board of strategy, consisting OF
herself, her daughter Isis" and her
boy "Joe."
The result Of their deliberations and
certain preparations, wherein figured
needle and thread, some grains of corn
and some bits of cardboard, became
evident the next morning. The Hold
kins geese appeared as usual, hut re-
turned home quickly, squawking so
noisly as to bring the Hodkinses in a
body to the front door. What they
saw astonished them.
Depending from each fowls bill was
bit of thread, the inner end anchor
ed to a grain of corn in the birds in
terror department, while to the other
end of the string was attached a
card bearing this inscription: "Plese
Kepe Yur Gooses Home" The Hod-
kins waterfowl are now reconcen-
trade upon the Hodkins home ranch.

"I HAVE ORDERS NOT TO Co..
II have orders-positive orders not to
90 there; orders that I dare not dis
obey" said youth who was being
tempted to a smoking and gambling
saloon.
"Come, don't be so womanish," said
the youths.
"No, I can't break ORDERS" said
John.
"What special orders have you got ?
Come, show them to US, if you can."
John took a neat wallet from his
pocket, carefully folded. The lads
read aloud:
ENTER not into the path of the
wicked, and 60 not in the way of evil
men. Avoid it, pass not by it, turn
from it and pass away"
"Now," said John, "you see my or
ders forbid my going with you. They
are Gods orders, and by His help I
will not break them"

A WEED DEsTRoYER.-One more
beneficial use has been found for elec-
tricity. 1t is the destruction of weeds.
The Illinois Central railroad is the first
to employ it for that purpose, in order
to keep down the weeds along its
lines of railroad. Not only has elec-
tricity been found servicable for weed
destruction, but the cost is much less
than when done by hand labor. 1t
cost the company in the past about
$40 per mile to destroy weeds. With
electricity, five miles of weeds can be
killed in an hour at a small expense,
A brush, heavily charged with elec-
tricity, runs along about eight inches
above the ground, and every weed
with which it comes in contact, how
ever big and strong, is Immediately
killed, and turns black as if frozen.
