INDIANS AS HOTEL WATERS
Experience of Traveller in Small Town
 in Nebraska.

in Nebraska.
 "Apropos of Indians as walters" said the social travelling man, sI dare say the students from Indian colleges will do first rate, but I have in mind the time when it was tried in Nebraska tn small town on the Missouri bot toms. and in a way that was not alto gether satisfactory to the guests who were waited on."
 Were you one of them?" asked the representative of piano house.
 "No, but I was at the little river tavern where it was tried. The girl walters had all left for new, big hotel that was to be opened in the next town, and the landlord had to do the waiting himself, and then he thought of the Indians at the reservation and went and hired four of them. They didn't get around until breakfast was over the next day-an Indian doesn't have any Idea of time-and there was only one man who hadn't eaten. He was a drummer from a New York clothing house, and the biggest growler in six teen counties" :"
 " You take his order, Jim,' said the landlord to the man he had been drill ling. Put this bill of fare under his nose, give him glass of ice water, and may the Lord have mercy on your soul
 Indians are not as slow as they seem, and this was one of the wicked est bucks on the reservation. He man. aged to get the order all right and carried it in and served it, and then, towel on arm, he stood at the back of the guests chair, as he had been in- structed to do But the drummer was ugly aNd swore a big, round of oaths that he would have no Indian in his.
 "At that the grim statue at the back whipped out a savage dirk from his store accoutrements, and, holding it over the head of the grumbling guest, he said, with consistent Indian brevity, accentuated by Choctaw swear word: You eat!'
 And eat he did, flesh and fowl, not daring to move muscle, while the arm of fate held the murderer's knife within an inch of his yisage. And it was not until he had eaten everything in sight that his dilemma was diseoy- cred, and he was rescued in a state yerging on collapse.
 "That particular guest was never again heard to complain, but the trial of Indians as walters ended then and there, their methods being quite too original or aboriginal, for practical ap- plication."

The Advantages and Pleasures OF

said Mr.. Gobbleby, "the practice Of civility.
As matter OF fact, don't suppose that
very great number OF men have suddenly be.
come wealthy through this means; that is, l
don't suppose that large number OF very
rich people have left fortunes to men who
had been at one time or another polite to
them, but / don't doubt, either, that there
have been just such cases, and ! don't for
moment doubt that substantial advantages
have often accrued to men through their
consistent civility.
"But aside from any question Of material
profit Though there is still always the
chance OF that involved in III should say
that the exercise OF civilty would pay for
another reason. There are lots OF people
who like civil treatment, who are, in fact,
really pleased by it, and though we might
not get anything in dollars and cents out OF
civility extended in this way toward people
in general, yet should say il would pay, for

NEGROES DRIVEN WAY.
City Limits OF Pana. Ill, and Told
to Mako Their Presence Scarce.

Pana, ILL.,, July 5.-Beyond repeated
firing in some sections Of the city,
claimed by the police to be the acts Of
miscreants attempting to cause trouble,
which terrorizes the residents in those
districts, there has been no unusual
excitement. A company Of negro min
ers who formerly worked in the Pana
mines, arrived on an Illinois Central
train yesterday afternoon. They were
intercepted near the union depot by a
crowd of 90 persons who stated
the situation in Pana and the feeling
against negroes and ordered them to
leave town Immediately. The negroes
stated that they had escaped from
their company during the riot at the
Brush mines near Carterville and
told of the dangers through
which they had passed. They were
perfectly willing to leave the city If
the union miners would furnish trans
portation. The delegation marched
the negroes to the city limits and they
were compelled to hastily make their
presence scarce. This, 1t Is reported,
is the treatment which will be &C.
corded all blacks who attempt to land
in Pana in the future.
