Look Out for Prairie Fires.

The thick and abundant growth of buff
falo and other grasses this year, makes it
necessary to put forth extra caution in the
prevention Of prairie fires. Fireguards
should be plowed and every precantion
taken to prevent the burning of the thick
grasses, and the destruction of property,
and probably loss of life.

AMERICAN INDIAN GAMES.
They Have Proven of Great Value In
the Study of American
FOLKLORE.

Our ideas of a game are primarily as
soicated with mirth, amusement, play,
such, indeed, being the original mean
ing of our English word. A careful
examination of games, however, reveals
the fact that they originated not as
pastimes, but as serious divinatory
contests. This is especially true of
the games of those we call primitive
people or savages.
We quickly find that distinction
may be drawn between these sacred
and divinatory games and the mimetic
plays of children. Children play at
real games as they play at every other
serious business of life. They thus
perpetuate games that have otherwise
disappeared. Hence the value of chill
dren's games in our study.
At the same time this derivation ap-
plies chiefly to the higher cultures
In savagery we deal with the games
of adults-first of men, then women
with games so complex that no child
mind could grasp their principles or
objects; with games so wrought and
interviewer with primitive concepts of
nature and the universe that no modern
mind could create or invent them

SAVED BY A DREAM.
The Strange Story Of War Core.
spondcnt Who Yielded to
Superstition.

The following curious experience Is
told by Mr.. Melton Prior, the distin-
gnished war artist: 81 was going out
to the Zulu war in one of the Union
company'S vessels, the German. On
board this steamer drcamt on two
occasions-tha1 is to say, had two
dreams precisely similar in their tenor
that was shot dead and then buried.
In my dreams ! saw myself killed and
witnessed my own funeral in all it's
dreary detail. Shortly after my arrival
at the Royal hotel in Durham l had
letter from my mother in which she
stated that she had had a dream, which
l. found to be precisely like my own,
and begged me to be careful and, il
possible, not to go to the relief of
Etchowe.
"lhs dream coincidence certainly
had an effect on my mind and in weak
moment l decided would not go. 'rll
be hanged if go up to Etchowe,'
said to myself, and didn't. 1t so hap
pencd that heard of IL gentleman, then
in Durham, who could sketch very well,
and when ! had put myself in commune
cation with him he offered to take my
place and send his sketches down to
me, so that could touch them up and
send them to England. ] communicate
ed with the proprietors of the Illus
tratrd London News, informing them
Of the whole incident and what had
done. Well, Mr.. William ingram NOW
Sir William Ingram) sent me cable
gram: Regret it ran, your not go
ing into battle at Etchowe. Perhaps
our special artist is preserved for bet
ter things to come 1t is a very curious
thing that out of the 60 or more battles
I've been present at and witnessed and
sketchcd such an idea as keeping out
of it never occurred to me- The man
who went up for me was one of the
first killed in the MAINLY

MOST THRILLING.
Was the Entertainment Upon Which
the Curtain of Roman
Thcnter Arose.

Perhaps the most thrilling enter
tainment on record was one witnessed
in the Romagna, which was as unex-
pcctcd as it was unauthorized. 1t was
the last day of the carnival, and the
theater of Formilpopoli was packed
with a crowd of spectators awaiting
the rise of the curtain. After long
delay the curtain went up, only to dis
close a stage occupied by 100 brig
ands facing the audience with pointed
rifles,
The leader of the strange cast, II
Passatorc, one of the most ruthless rob-
bers of any age, bowed profoundly to
the horror-stricken audience and ex-
planned that the theatcr was surround
ed by his men, that the first man who
attempted to escape would be shot, and
that lie and his merry men would pro-
cecd to collect any money and yalua bles
they had with them.
The brigand and his men then de-
scended from the stage and stripped
the audience of their possessions to the
value of 100000. lie then thanked
them all in a graceful speech and left
the thcater. 1t is comforting to know
that he and 100 of his brigands were
captured shortly after and that they
paid a heavy penalty for their even
ing's cntcrtainment.-C En-

HAD THE DESIRED EFFECT.
The GrcaSers Dccnme Convinced That
DESERVING Was Not the Proper
Thing to Do.

For sheer, cool nerve and absolute,
inspired genius in dealing with men,
commend me to Clarence King, the ge-
ologist. Mr.. King, the tale runs, was
in the field all one summer with a gov
eminent expedition. The field hap
pened to be in the far west. and the
men he was compelled to employ as
assistants were a band of cheerful ruff
fans, half-breeds, desperadoes and
"greaser'' scamps. Bad as they were,
they worked well, and they were in
dispensable. One night one of them
deserted. Mr.. King knew what that
meant. 1t meant a stampede and an
empty camp if the deserter were al
lowed to go unpublished. He chose a
companion in whose silence he could
depend, mounted and took the trail.
On the third day the deserter was over
taken, captured and landed in con-
venient fort. The runaway had SUBJ
sisted on such game and birds as he
could kill. His horse was white, and
as he rode often with prey slung to
the saddle, the animal was streaked and
stained with blood. The man being in
safekeeping, Mr.. King and his compan-
ion rode back to camp leading the
crimson-streakedh horse, with all the de-
serter's belongings strapped to his
back. They spoke no word of the miss
ing man to his former companions, but
dismounted in grim silence. The men
endured the pangs of curiosity as long
as they could. Then they sent com
mittee to Mr.. King to make inquiries
about the fugitive. Mr.. King gave a
meaning glance at the blood-stained
horse and made answer briefly.
HE is gone," he said, impressively.
"He is gone where anybody else who
tries to desert will go, too"
Half-breeds and 'greasers" gasped
and crossed themselves, and from that
day on no one of them all ever tried
to desert.-Washingt Post.

LITTLE FEET.

Dear little feet that lie in my hand!
Dear little feet from a far-off land,
Come to us. come to US, come to us newly
Out of far-off fairy Thule.
You have run to US out of the greater day
Can you give no hint of the winsome way?
For we who are grizzled and gray and old
Would fatn step out on the streets of gold.
What was the way? What was the road?
Was the pathway easy, and smooth, and
broad?
1t must have been strewn with roses,
think,
For here is their white, and here is their
pink;
And forget-me-nots. and violets. TOO,
Have stained sweet lilies of delicate blue
Yes, rose leaves white and rose leaves red
Were carpet meet for your dainty tread,
And forget-me-nots and violets blue
Lent you a hint of heaven new.
Tell US the way! All! youth forgets.
And the dew soon dries on the violets.
III,
Dear little feet. you will go some day
Down by dark and cruel way.
Out to country dim and far,
Where cool, great waters and green grass
are.
But the way is sharp. with many stone.
And, dear little feet, you must go alone
And it's oh! that might lay down my heart
To ease for moment just one little smart.
For my heart is tender and soft and true.
And 'twould be as the silk rose leaves for
you
AS the rose leaves white and the rose leaves
red.
Warm and soft to your timid tread;
AS the rose leaves red and the rose leaves
white
To CLEAN in the dark with Loves own light;
AS forget me-nots and violets blue,
To keep you in mind of the heaven In view.
And oh! it would stretch for you all the
way,
On through the night, on to the day.
But. dear little feet, you must go alone.
Alone, alone, and all alone.

appearance of such q monster so close
to Inc was at first quite startling. Then

piece of drift ice?"
4 ''l'll tell you all about it rs soon as
possible" ] said; "but how did you get
here? That's what want to know"
BY this time I was surrounded by a
circle of wondering sailors, while Sam
went on to tell in Il few words how her
cargo of iron had caused their ship to
spring a leak, so that they had been
forced to abandon her; and they were
making for Cape Race in their boats,
when. passing close to this floating ice,
they had discovered mo lying near its
edge. Sam. it appeared, had been the
first to scramble upon it, though he lit

the person of the supposed dead man.

marked the stout young sailor, while I
