OSAGE SMOKE DANCE.
An Annual JOilifcntfoD Among the
Indians Which Always
Lasts n Week.

The annual smoke dance of the Usage
Indians took place at Pawhuska, o. r.,
the last of June, says the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat. The smoke dance is
always gala event among the Indians
of the territory.
The dance was held in a secluded
place on the bank of creek. At night
the place is lighted with pine knots.
and circle of dark faces around the
half-naked dancers presents a wierd
picture. Two hundred white persons
visited the dance, although usually
"paiefaces" are not allowed to witness
the ceremony. The neighboring tribes
are always invited TO take part, and
generally the different tribes are AZ
signed certain days on which to send
delegations.
Usually the visitors bring ponies anC
other presents to the Osages, but some
times the visitors are the recipients of
gifts. The Delawares were presented
with so ponies and 500 yards of calico
by the Osages. One night several o.
the Indians, who were evidently tired
sut, were whipped by the chiefs orde
because they did not display enough
energy in the dance. Four of the drum
mers and five of the dancers were grad
yates of Indian schools.

SKATING SOLDIERS.
New Branch of Military Service fr
Norway Has Been Recently

A letter recently received by prom
inent Norwegian American resident in
Chicago from his old home says that
the Norwegian army has lately organ

The men are armed with repeating
rifles. They wear a specially construct
ed skate evolved after numerous expert

at the word of command.
The corps, says the Chicago Chron-
icle, can be manuevered with rapidity
equal to that of the best-trained cav
airy. and at a recent review--on one of
the fjords-their evoiutions astonished
the military representatives of other
nations who were invited to witness
the display.
For patrol and scout duty they are
expected to be of the greatest use, as
the ice season in Norway is of consid-
cradle duration.
The men are the pick of skating ma
ton. and they are commanded by an
eX-champion. They are capa bic of trav-

THE DOUBLE EAGLE.
and Austria Is of Ancient
Origin.

The eagle, as an emblem of authority,
is so old that it would be impossible to
clearly trace it's origin. 1t is found
upon the most ancient sculptures that
have yet been discovered, and was no
doubt one of the very Oldest of the
totems, or tribe signs. The early Per-
sian empire appears to be the first
which adopted it as an imperial en-
blem. Among the Greeks the eagle was
the emblem of Jove. The Romans also
adopted the eagle as their standard,
and so il became the token of Roman do
minion. When Constantine became em-
peror he adopted the double-hecaca
eagle as the insignia of his authority
ever east and west When the German
empire came into being in the twelfth
century this emblem was revived us be-
ing that of the Holy Roman empire. and
Rudolph of HaPshurg adopted it as his
imperial arms. 1t appeared the Rus
sian imperial arms in the sixteenth CEN
tury, when Gar Ivan Basilovitch mar
ried Princess Sophia, niece of the elev-
enth Constantine. and the last of tire
Byzantine emperors.

PLANTS HAVE TAKEN A REST.
Many That Disappeared Genera =
tions Ago Have Come to
View Again.

1t has been noted by close observers
that some 25 years ago, when the SEQ
riae Tor slag) produced by the ancient
Greeks in working the silver mines of
Lawimur, near Athens, was removed in
order to be reworked by more efficient
modern appliances the seeds of kind
of poppy of the genus glancinon, which
had lain underneath the Stag in dor
mant condition for at least /, 800 years,
sprang up again all over the uncovered
ground. Unknown in modern times,
this plant was described in the first
century of our era by Dioscorides and
rliny and had disappeared from the
face of the globe for Is or 20 centuries.
The fact that these seeds should have
retained their vitality SO long seems
very extraordinary, but there are other
instances quite as remarkable. For in
stance, raspberry seeds found in 1888
in an ancient tumulus, in coffin buried
80 feet below the surface and believed
to have been there since the second
century, were successfully planted.
And in another case seeds of the poly
gonum convolvulus dug up from the
bottom of sand pit, where they were
believed to have been buried for 1000
years, were still vigorous and produced
healthy plants.

and the numbers wiz be found
Whenever an article of jewelry is re-
paired this number, with its repair reg
istry number, is entered on the repair
book wherever ii is left. This is true of
all articles of iewelry, but is rarticu
larly noticeable in the repair of
watches. Every time watch is cleaned
it's new number is scratched somewhere
on the inside Of the case. One can never
deceive a jeweler as TO the length of
time since the watch was last cleaned,
as he has it registered on his books.
If you cannot make out jeweiry de-
scriptive list yourself, your jeweler will
fill out the registry for you. Your
chances of recovery in case of robbery
are greatly increased.

"Let me tell you that when you make
fishcakes you should not drown out the

they can be made, wrap them in blan-

younger days. When he sends down to
me an order for fish cakes for the next

Meschutt's fish cakes, with egg. That
is the order. and he is thinking of his
younger life, when, as he once told me,
in basement on Broadway he used to
get the finest butter cakes and fish
cakes he ever tasted, excepting yours,

that dimes in those days were as thou

appetite was keener and more appre-

"It is uncertain" he answered, curtly.
Then they were silent, while the crew
out on the CLASSY stream caught up
their long, machine-like stroke, and
with the coxswain grunting rhythmic

swept away up stream.

the stranger said. Your knowledge OF
the game and your size show that"
"Yes, I've rowed," he answered, "as 3
substitute"
Then, throwing huge leg across
rock, he went on, half to himself: I've
said too much not to say more. I've
never said as much before. but the sight
of those fellows rowing dragged it out

ABSOLUTELY PURE
THIS CAT REFUSED TO DIE.
How nm Intelligent Pussy Put stop
to University Professors
Demon strntion.

Students of one of the big universi.
ties in this city have cat that has
utterly refused to become martyr TO
science. Its history is another instance
of the refining and eleyating influence
of science, says the Chicago Iimes-Her-
aid. ~--~-.
Prof. BLANK asked j. 2. Morgan, the
.ianitor TO set cat for him. as he
wished to illustrate his lecture on Res
piration" by experiments upon the ami
NAL. Mr.. Morgan succeeded in getting
one with the aid of some small boys.
When his students had assembled the
professor put the cat into the glass
receiver of the air pump and began to
pump out the air. Before the piston had
time to move more than once or twice
the cat began to feel very IfacQmfort-
able, and, discovering the aperture
through which the air was escaping, put
her foot on il and thus corked the pipe
and stopped the removal of the air,
Several subsequent attempts to car
ry on the experiments were alike inef-
fectual, for as soon as the glass cover
was put over her and she felt the re-
moval of the air the cat would put her
feet over the pipe and keep them
pressed there.
The students, struck by the remark
able intelligence shown by the cat,
asked the professor to liberate the ami
NAL aud loudly cheered her self-posses-
sion when the cat, after coolly clean
ing herself and smoothing her ruffled
fur, jumped down and rubbed against
the legs of the students sitting on the
front bench. She is now permanently
annexed to the college and an object of
interest Ia all visitors.
