Last winter a delegation OF Indians
from far western state, on tour Of
inspection through the interior depart
mcnt. visited the land office, where
they were introduced to the clerk who
had especial charge OF their section Of
the country, n bumptious little lndiyid-
ual with big head. This official pro-
ceeded to oyerpower the red men with
his Importance. Grasping each one OF
them cordially by the hand, he patted
them patrOnizingly on their backs
and then delivered long speech. ex.
planning in detail the work Of the Of.
flee, their interest in it, laying particu-
lar stress on the fact that he was the
motive power OF 1t all. As soon rs
their entertainer paused for breath the
visiting Indians began to grunt and
talk among themselves.
what are they sayingT asked the
egotlstical clerk. expecting to hear
high praise of himself. Tell me what
they are saying"
II cannot tell YOU" replied the inter
prefer. "It was not for you to hear"
But the little man insisted. and with
great reluctance the interpreter finally
yielded. "They said" he translated.

Miss Daisy DentZ, OF DentZville,
y. j., a suburb OF Trenton, has prob
ably the largest collection of coins in
New Jersey. Some OF them are many
hundred years old. and they represent
the eurrencies OF nearly every country
IN the world. Some idea OF the size OF
the collection may be gathered from
the fact that the ceiling OF Miss
Dentz's boudoIr Is completely covered
with United States money. while the
four walls are hidden behind the coins
OF Asiatic. European. African and
South American countries. There IS
considerable history attached to this
collection. especially to the English
coins. which were found near Prince
ton In a queer shaped hat by one Of
Miss Dentz's relatives while IN search
OF minerals. The hat Is similar in shape
10 those worn by the Hessian soldiers
during the revolution and Is stin In
Miss Detnzs possession There are
many valuable coins in her collection.
and were she TO convert them all into
present American currency they would
Yield quite a snug sum.-Philadelphia

Wives of the waltz King.

Johann Strauss. the waltz king. was
scarcely laid away to rest In the Fried
hof when a series OF disputes arose
over his possessions. Strauss secured
to his wife aud stepdaughter. IS well
as his sisters. moderate incomes for
life. and then made the Society Of
Friends OF Music his heir-at-law. He
dIslnherited his brother. the we'll
known EdGard Strauss. and made no
provision for the destitute widow Of his
brother Joseph. The chief effort to dis
pute the legality Of Strauss will is TO
be made by his second wife, from whom
he claimed that he was divorced.
When Strauss contracted his second
marriage both he and his wife were
Roman Catholics, and were united in a
Catholic church and with the rites OF
that religion The Austrian marriage
laws are exceptionally severe. and mar
rled Catholics eau In this country Sc
cure a legal separation from one anoth-
er, but never an absolute divorce which
enables them to marry again. The re
suit is that Roman Catholics who have
secured a separation resort to all sorts
Of evasIons OF the law In order to mar
~ again. Johann Strauss receded from
Roman Catholicism and became a Prot
estant. then emlgrated to the Duchy OF
SAKE Coburg Gotha. resided there for
period, obtained an absolute divorce
from his wife and married a third time.
This evasion OF the Austrian mar
rage lawsd deprived Strauss Of the court
favor which he had enjoyed. and 1t
seems certain that In the strict legal
sense his second wife is his rightful
widow. whereas his third wife. for
whom he has provided. had no authen.
tie claim on him. The Austrian laws OF
succession provide that a wife can new
err be disinherited. but has always a
claim on at least one-third OF the prop
erty left by her husband, 50 that the
second wife OF the great musician has
every prospect OF obtaining this share
Of his wealth. At present she is In
poor circumstances. and earns her Nv

William NJ. Eyarts. secretary Of
state under President Hayes. made
perhaps his best and his worst puns
from railway platforms while travel

tourists, gathered there from all parts
OF the country, called for n speech.

At another time, when travelling
through Tennessee. Mr.. Evarts laid a
wager with the young people OF his
party that he could make n pun upon
each town through which they should

Becoming a british Subject.

Ii Is nn easy thing 20 become a Brit
lsh subject All that an allen has TO do
Is to declare his intention 20 reside
within the British dominions ON leay-
ing his own country, and forthwith he
takes out his naturalization papers, Is
sued TO him by the secretary OF state
upon his taking the oath OF allegiance.
These papers invest him with the
rights and privileges OF Britisher, ex-
eept that he is barred from becoming
a prlvy councillor or n member OF par
Lament and also barred from accepting
office under the crown. But If an allen
be naturalized by special act OF par
lament passed for his own benefit
then he becomes as much British
subject and has all the rights and

APerfeet Diagnosis.

DIR. George Fordyce. who came In
1852 from Edinburgh 10 London, very
speedily made himself name By
series OF public lectures on medical sci
ence, which he afterward published In
a volume entitled, Elements Of the
Practice OF Physics" which passed
through many editions. Unfortunately
he was given to drink, and. though lie
never was known to be dead drunk,
yet he was often In a state which
rendered him unfit for professional du-
ties.
One night when he was In such
condition he was suddenly sent for to
attend Il lady OF title who was very
III. He went, sat down, listened to her
story and felt her pulse He found he
was not up to his work. He lost his
wits and in moment of forgetfulness
exclaimed, Drunk. by Joye" Still he
managed to write out mild prescrip-
ton.
Early next morning he received n
message from his noble patient TO call
on her at once. DIR. Fordyce felt very
uncomfortable. The lady evidently In
tended to upbraid him either with an
improper prescription or with his dis
graceful condition. But to his sur
prise and relief she thanked him for
his prompt compliance with her press
ing summons and then confessed that
he had rightly diagnosed her case, that
unfortunately she occasionally indulg-
ed too freely In drink, but that she
hoped he would preserve invlolable Sc
crecy as TO the condition he had found
her in. Fordyce listened TO her grave
as Judge and said: you may depend
upon me. madam. I shall be as silent
as the grave."-Gentleman's Magazine.
