ORIGIN OF AMERICANS.
Contention That Japan Was the Or
iginal Home of the Race.

From Peoples of the World.
Probably Japan, the Kuriles and the
regions thereabouts must be looked
upon as the original home OF the Amer
lean race, or at least the greater por-
tion of 1t. In 1884 Japanese junk was
wrecked at Queen-haith, to the south
of Cape Flattery, and the three sur
vivors were sent back to Japan. They
had been driven off the Island of Yeso,
and, losing their reckoning, had drifted
about for several months, during which
time the crew, which had been origin
ally forty in number, had dwindled
down by hardship and hunger TO three.
Again, on the 2lst Of April, 1Si7, in lati-
tude 35 degrees north, longitude 1866 de-
grees east, a japanese junk was fallen
In with which had lost her rudder and
had been driven TO sea in gale in
November, 1876. She had on board a
crew OF nine men and about 1000
pounds of beeswaX and other cargo.
on another occasion an American
whaler in May, ls47, fell in with a
large junk of 200 tons burden, dis
mantled, with her rudder gone and
otherwise injured in a typhoon which
had occurred seven months previously.
The crew, originally consisting of sew

CAT AND COYOTE.
Meet and Fight it Out on the Open
Prairie.

From the Boise Statesman.
a Boise gentleman passing over the
sage brush plains near Meridian the
other day was treated to an exhibition
that was as strange as it was interest
ing. 1t was battle between cat and
a coyote. 1t was early morning, and
plainly the nights prowling over the
prairie had netted the coyote nothing
in the way of good, square feed.
When first seen he was stealthily glid-
ing about, his nose to the ground,
searching, as they always are, for
something to appease his Unsuitable
appetite. He stopped and was survey
ing the surroundings from a slight
knoll, when there appeared on the
scene a great tomcat, a burly fellow,
who also seemed on "A quest for break
fast-some toothsome morsel, as a cot
tontail or a young grouse. When Tom
hove in sight the coyote smiled sat
isfed smile. All things come TO the
patient, he must have thought, and he
at once prepared TO take unto his inner
sef the bounties that nature provided.
Tom had not at first seen the coyote;
in fact was not aware that a foe was
near until the first charge, when the
coyote sprang at him. But, quick as a
flash. he parried the first thrust and
then squared for action. With back
up and fur on end, the cat stood his

Dwarfs of the Cameroons.
From the Birmingham Post.

Although reports of a race of small
stature in the interior OF the Cameroons
have been current for some years, no
traveller had until last year been able TO
verify the rumor by his own observation.
Quoting from the Allgtmeine Wissen-
schaftliche Berichte, the Deutsche Rund-
schau announces that the first accurate
information respecting such a race was
obtained last year by the Bulu expedition
OF the German military force. Seven in
divlduals of the pygmy tribe were, after
much difficulty, brought TO the camp
through the instrumentality of a native
chief, Some of them showed traces OF
admiXture with other tribes, but one wo-
man, who seemed TO possess the typical
characteristics OF the race, was care
fully measured and had a height of al
most exactly four feet. The color was
chocolate brown to copperish, the palms
of the hands alone being of a yellowish
white. The hair was deep black thick
and frizzled; the skull broad and high /;
the lips full and swollen. The mode Of
life seems to resemble that of other pyg-
my tribes, as they are very shy, wander
ing about from place to place, and avoid
ing frequented routes. They are skilled
hunters and collect much rubber but dis
pose OF Ii to other tribes for transport to
the coast. Professor Virchow, speaking
OF these people before the Berlin An
thropological society in November last,
said that apart from their small size they
possess all the characteristics OF true
negroes, especially in their hair; and
that, like the other pygmy tribes, they
must be regarded as the remains of a
primitive population, from which the va
rious negro tribes have been derived.

dition from famine and all Scared from
dirk and knife wounds, for fearful
scenes seemed to have been enacted on
board during the struggle for existence
and amid the paroxysms of hunger and
despair The Indians have a tradition
that many years ago, long before the
whites settled among them, a vessel
laden with wax and apparently a Jap
anese junk, was wrecked on their coast.
To this day pieces of the wax are tossed
up, and at one time the Hudson Bay
company used to trade for it from the
natives.
Very recently similar case was re-
corded in the newspapers; but the
above will suffice to show that there
are no obstacles 10 prevent America
having been originally peopled from
the Asiatic coast. The number of tribes
on the American continent is verv re-
markable, and the languages are equal
ly multifarious, though all of the gen.
eral "agglutinative" construction. The
famous Thomas jefferson, president of
the United States, was in the habit Of
pointing to this diversity of languages
as a proof of the antiquity of the
American aboriginal race. 1t points,
however, to nothing more than that the
native races of America have been al
ways at war with each other and con-
ned therefore to isolated communities,
holding little mutual intercourse with
each other. and thus the languages
have got further and further separated
from each other In giving general
sketch of the American races we may
throw them into great groups of more
or less geographical character, the hab-
its and in some cases the origin of the
tribes being similar in these regions.

On December Is, 1881, Mr.. Frck was
married to Miss Ada Howard Childs, a
daughter Of Asa +. Childs, of Pittsburg.
Four children were born to them, two
boys and two girls: one son, now a lad
Of fifteen, and one daughter are living.
In n quiet way Mr.. Frick has given
tens of thousands of dollars TO
churches. schools, Libraries and other
institutions. In quiet way he occa-
sionally INDUCES in golf, and among
his intimates he is regarded as a very
clever whist player. He is an admirer
of fine paintings, and has canvasses
worth hundreds of thousands of dollars
in his home One Of his latest pur-
chaseS was BouVeret'S Christ at EN-
maus," which he purchased more than
a year ago at price not made public,
but which has been estimated all the
way from $4,000 to 100000. The pic
ture was first exhibited in Paris in 1897.
where Mr.. Frick saw it and took an
option on it. 1t was purchased after
his return from Europe early in 1898,
and was presented last fall by Mr.. and
Mrs. Frick to the Carnegie Art gallery
here in memory of their dead daugh-
ter, Martha.
1t is a somewhat remarkable fact that
the little village OF West Overton has
! been the birthplace of at least two of
the great financiers OF the present de-
cade. II. c. Frick and a. c. Overholt,
the latter the head of the great Iron

This time he got in a left swing blow on

sprang into the fight much as in the
first, and with about the same result to
him. The cat uppercut nim as he

with left and right, until the air was
full of brown-gray hair. The round
was furious throughout, with honors
clearly for Tom. The coyote might
have been counted out if the gophers
that watched the bout had counted.
He deliberated long before coming in
for the third round, but his belly ruled
his mind and to the scratch he came,
slowly this time. Tom was ready, and
rushed the fight. He crowded the coy
ote and backed him over the knoll,

wherever he pleased. FINALLY, after

BACKWARD VIEWS.-From sew
eral standpoints we may profitably re-
view this passage. 1. See the pitiful
plight of the men who sought to de-
stroy Jesus. While He is in their
power they have no accusation, but
e1deavor to force from Him what may
be construed against Him, vacating
the forms of justice and allowing the
uncondemned to be shamefully treated
to bolster up and already self-abused
dignity;2. See the Christ in this hour,
refusing to be a party to any such
nefarious business, wise enough to re-
sist those who would incriminate Him,
holy enough to stand by His record
and appeal to those who heard Him,
demanding at the same time that in
the presence of the high priest He
should not be deprived of rights prom
ised by the law of Moses and the law
of Rome; 8. See the church. One had
turner traitor, and was consorting
with his enemies. Eight had aban-
doned their Master and sought only
their own personal security. One had
denied thrice and sealed his falsehood
lover of the Master, clung to Him in
silence and he a young man. Tell it
to the credit of youth, he endured and
loved and sympathiZed, the first of
that great company whose lives have
since blessed the church Il John IT'D.

JOHN AND JESUS.-When Jesus
was seized by Roman officers in the
garden, all the disciples forsook Him
and fled Mark. Xiv:50). While most
of them sought places of safety in
the city, two, recovering from the
first panic, followed in the rear of the
procession. Peter is mentioned as one
of these (verse 15), and the name Of
the other is unknown. From his hab-
it of suppressing his own name John
Xiii:23), it has been generally sup
posed that this was John, the brother
of James, the youngest of the
band, mentioned in the gospel history
as the beloved disciple" he resolved
not to leave his Master in this hour
of great trial. When therefore Jesus
was led into the palace of Caiaphas,
John went in also. This privilege
was readily granted because he was
known as young Galilean fisherman,
a follower of Jesus. This only disci-
pie of all who had gathered around the
NaZarene maintained his confidence
and loyalty and feared not to accept
the fortunes of the one whom he
loved. 1t is no wonder that the Saw
iour was afterward prompted to COM
