A colored parade of half grown
negro boys. who imagined them
selves a whole minstrel troupe of
high born artists, paraded the
streets Yesterday, and while pass
ing the white school house on the
West Side, got into a rock throwing
contest with the boys on the cam
pus and we learn blood was drawn
from both sides. Two Of the ne
groes were arrested and placed in
the city Jail, We cannot see any
sense in these coons parading the
streets with their drums and tat
ters, and now ask that the officers
do not permit it any more, as a
serious riot and untold trouble may
be caused, if they are allowed to
parade streets where white boys
congregate as they do at the West
Side school building. We shall ask
Mayor Mullins to issue an order to
keep them from this side of town
at least and hope he may do so.

Grafton, killing for count is recognized
as legitimate and sportsmanlike. He is

The clubman was looking particular

mates for the cause, he said;
"This evening, just after dark, as !

to be a locomotive and knocked sprawl

also very mad. l looked around to see
what hit me and found young man
and safety bicycle on the pavement,
all tangled up. l was mad, as 1 said be-
fore, and without stopping to think
what | did, took that young man by
the coat collar and kicked him off the
pavement. Then jumped OH the bicy-
Gle, smashed all the spokes out of the
wheels and generally disfgured it"

when boys were neighbors in Barnsta-

the battle of Bunker Hill the militia
of these towns set off for Boston. The
boys accompanied the soldiers, Davis
acting as fifer. A few miles out from
Barnstable an order came directing the
military to return home.
In their retreat Thatcher and Davis
tired Of their march, mounted an old
horse they met on the road, without
saddle or bride After riding some
miles they dismounted and abandoned
their steed in the highway.
Many years after Davis, as solicitor
general, was prosecuting a horse thief
before Judge Thatcher in the county of
Kennebeo, Me In the course Of the
trial the judge leaned over the bench
and said in an undertone to the solic-
itor:
"Davy, this reminds me of the horse

Hot drinks have come into wide use
during late years among persons afiict-
ed with indigestion. A tepid fluid ex-
erts marked sedative influence on the
gastric mucous membrane and often re-
lieves the painful sensations following
the meals Of chronic dyspeptic.
Less recognized perhaps is the in
duence of hot drinks on the motor
functions of the stomach In the or
binary course of events nothing remains
in the stomach six hours after meal,
and the presence of alimentary debris
after that period indicates the presence
of some degree of muscular paresis.
This condition of things may be greatly
benefited by the use of hot water with
or Immediately after meals, but in
chronic cases permanent benefit can only
be obtaines by perseverance, the treat
ment being methodically carried out for
some months.
AS might be anticipated, the hot wa
ter treatment does not ameliorate the
secretory defects in the same degree as
the muscular weakness, but by main
tanning the stomach in hygienio con-
dition we may, at any rate, hope to
check further degradation of the peptio
glands. The temperature of hot drinks
should be from 105 to 10 degrees F.

HOW Indinns swenr Pious1x.

1t Is said that certain tribe of In
dams have useful divinity which they
call swearing god. 1t is very small,
equally ugly and even more convenient.
1t generally stands on pedestal or is
nailed to the wall of the living room,
and the use of the picturesque language
in it's presence is accounted not sin,
but pious duty.
Thus if an Indian bruises his finger,
or his cayuse steps into prairie dog s
hole and wickedly breaks his leg, he
confines himself to general remarks on
the weather until he reaches home and
sees again the comforting face of the
grinning devil Then he becomes sud-
denly possessed of the eloquence Of a
mule driver, and the things that he says
would make any ordinary effigy shrivel
up with horror, but the swearing god is
used to It,
After all. so called civilized beings are
not SO far beyond the Indian. When we
get angry at man we burn him in eff
fgy, or hang up doll whose distorted
features convey our impressions of his
unworth. and throw stones at it.-New

The extraordinary care that the Gre
clan boy received in his formative years
made his moral training more effective
than that inculcated by the most careful
of modern parents. His general educa-
ton, coupled with skillful and continu-
GUS physical instruction, produced a
moral cultivation very similar and fully
as strict as that the Christian father
deems necessary for his daughters.

Restaurant Men Who Cater to Them
Soon Become Rich.
That the restaurant business in Berlin
is a paying one, if the location chosen
be good one, the restaurant of the ZOO
logical gardens here shows. For num-
Der of years it was leased by man who
understood about as much of the bust
ness as the man in the moon. Yet he
became wealthy within few years and
retired for good to live on the interest
of his money There were days in sum-
mer when he sold 1000 kegs of beer,
besides some 10000 cups of coffee and
90, 900 sandwiches, and as prices are
high there he must have made thousands
of dollars In single day.
Fortunately for the public, another
caterer now supplies the hungry and
thirsty sightseers at the geological gar
dens, man with good reputation, and
he pays twice the rent for the restau-
rant buildings, too-viz. 100, 900 marks
per annum, besides spending by the
terms of his contract matter of almost
500, 900 marks for improvements Yet it
is probable that he, teo, will retire at
the end of his term with fortune.
There are many instances of this kind
in Berlin. One of the finest and most
highly priced restaurants on Inter den
Linden recently sold its good will for
matter of 1000, 900 marks. The owner

There are no genuine fences In Baxter

Is drifted rich with white and pink,
OF bouncing bet from brink to brink;
The haunted air resounds between

Like burnt out stars that dart and float,
With but last fire to the throat.

ened by autumn rain.
