up for q moment and waves his hand
in farewell; when, simultaneously, the
whole OF the ships company on deck
and the passengers break out into
cheer upon cheer. Men wave their
caps and women their daintily EN-.
broidered handkerchiefs.
"By Jove," exclaims the aide-de.
camp, 'that is brave fellow. He de-
serves the Victoria Cross"
From the deck OF the Pearl of the

her deck. swarming with cholera-in.
fected .Moslems; and then, after n
short time, they see the ensign hoisted
with the jack uppermost, and the Sig
nal "All we'll" is broken from the
peak.
"Fuli speed ahead" is the signal
then rung in the engine room of the
Pearl of the Orient, and in a few min
utes the great ship is again proceeding
on her swift course down the Red Sea.
Still, as long as the Alta Mahomed Khan
is in sight, glasses are kept constant
ly leveled ut her.
"Do you see?" asks the general
officers daughter OF the gallant young
aide-de- scamp who is SO often by her
side. "Dou you see? They are
throwing black things overheard from
tho cholera ship into the water"
"And-and what-what are those
two or three dark objects floating
there?" she asks, drawing the young
officers attention to the disturbed
waters in the immediate wake of the
ship.
"Why, they look like-look like
7 say" he breaks off. "Let us go
down into the saloon and practice for
the concert. 1t isn't good to look at
that sort of thing. 1t makes one
morbid"
But somehow the concert that even
ing on board the Pearl of tho Orient
is not much of a success. Thoughts
naturally turn backward to tho chol-
era ship and their late fellow tray
eler's heroic work on board. A pa
thetic song, in fact, breaks up the en-
tertainment.
On the morrow, however, the sun
rises to shine upon new life. The
cholera ship, with her frightful cargo
of human misery, is forgotten. The
man OF no consequence, who was
made the hero OF OH hour, again
sinks into oblivion; for once more
laughter and song and mirth reign
over all that gay, distinguished
throng on board the Pearl of the
Orient. New York Press.

CIGAR ENDS IN PARIS.
Syndicate Proposed Tor Those Who
Gather the Vile Things in tho Streets.

Syndicate Proposed Tor Those Who
Gather tho Vile Things in tho Streets.
Every visitor to Paris has observed
the ragged individuals who perambu.
late the boulevard and peer in among
the tables and chairs in front of the
cafes in search of cigar and cigarette
ends, which they deity harpoon by
meaus Of bent pins on the end of
stick. The megottiers, Us they are
called, are now trying to form
mutual protection syndicate. Their
reason is that the police interfere with
them too much, considering they are
peaceable folk, and that the craft,
never lucrative one, is thus rem
dered almost impossible. Such, it
appears, is especially the case in sum-
mer, when the streets are clean and
the best customers OF the megottiers
pick up their own tobacco. The fact
that this is the bad season probably
accounts for the present little agita-
ton.
This singular trade occupies three
classes OF persons-the picker, the
cleaner and the salesman. Everybody
has seen the picker at work, and OBJ
served how he combines begging
Herewith. In the evening the pick
ers meet at low wine shops in the
Faubourg du Temple, where they find
the cleaners awaiting them. News
papers are spread on the tables, and
the cleaners set to work to undo the
cigars and cigarettes. Meanwhile the
pickers eat their bread and sausage,
aud by spending three-halfpence on a
glass Of wine obtain tho right to sleep
in the establishment as best they can
until o'clock in tho morning. At
that hour the wine shops are closed.
But they open again at 8, when both
pickers and cleaners enter, and by
taking another glass Of wine each may
sleep till the morning. During this
interval of closing and opening the
tobacco, put up in packets, has been
handed over to the salesman, who dis
poses of it in workmen's quarters like
the Place Maubert as the men pass on
their way to work. The purchasers
consist chiefly of masons, who all
come from the country districts of
Limousin and Grouse, and are de-
lighted to get large packet of to-
bacco for twopence. There exist,
moreover, real tobacco shop keepers
who purchase the vile stuff and mix it
with good tobacco, tho profits derived
therefrom being naturally consider
able. This practice does not. how
ever, exist to any great extent.

What Is Killing the Indinn.

There is no doubt that to the crudity
of the methods Of treatment of dis.
eases by the native doctors is due, in
large measure, the rapid passing
of the Indian. But aside from this
the Indians mode of life is highly
conducive to his speedy elimination as
an entity among the humans. In the
old days, when the buffalo roamed
everywhere across the plains, and fur
nished prime beef on the hoof, self
kept and ever ready for the Indians
butchering, then the wigwams were
moved from place to place, keeping in
close proximity to the herd, and new
ground and open air, p enty to eat,
and comfortable skins for wear kept
the Indian in hardy state of health.
But after the white man began to fill
the chinks Of the Rockies and exter-
inmate the bison, then the red man Q
gan to suffer. Starvation, supplement
ting their losses in battles with gov
eminent soldiers, would have de-
stroyed the last vestige of Indian life
long ere this but for the government
supply of rations.

Street Lighting Seventy Years Ago.

In 1929 Albany's streets were lighted
by $50 oil lamps-on dark nights. On
moonlight nights, or nights which
should be moonlight according to the
almanac, the lamps were not lighted.
Only 100 of the lamps held sufficient
oil to burn all night. the remainder
being supplied with scant gill OF
fluid. The City Fathers assumed that
they would burn until after midnight,
and all honest citizens ought to be in
bed by that time. They had not yet
begun to realize that well-lighted
streets were more effective than large
police force in preventing crime.-Al-
hanv IN. w Arons.

McLauehlin's FRteful Ride.

The death of Lieutenant McLaugh.
lin, of tho Signal Corps, who died of
yellow foyer at Santiago, recalls dra-
matte incident, in which he was one
of tho principal actors, during the
campaign III Porto Rico.
Lieutenant Mclaughlin had charge
Of squad which built telegraph line
along the route of the American ad-
vance on the night of August IL. The
Signal Corps men could not keep pace
with the advance of the infantry and
artillery, in command of General
Brooke, and when the latter faced q
line of Spanish intrenchments the tele-
graph lire was two miles in the rear.
At o'clock of August 10 the mes
sage came to Lieutenant McLaughlin's
station that the peace protocol had
been signed. There was no way to get
to Brooke but ride it, and the Lieu
tenant, accompanied by an orderly,
started to make the trip. Mounting
his horse, he started at gallop, and
his ride will go down in history as one
of the most dramatic ever made on a
field OF battle.
When he reached the lines of infan-
try that were supporting the artillery
he was told that the guns were about
to open fire on the enemy, and, real
izing that he had to be quick or the
battle would begin, and knowing the
consequences of such action after the
protocol had been signed, he sank his
spurs into the horse and went on,
leaving his orderly, who was mounted
on a mule, far in the rear.
Still on he went, and before 100
o'clock he reached the artillery batta-
lion and found General Brooke stand
ing beside one Of Battery BIS guns,
while the gunner had his hand on the
lanyard ready to pull.
The message was delivered, the fir
ing prevented, and what might have
been terrible battle stopped.
After the campaign closed in Porto
Rico Lieutenant Mclaughlin was sent
to Cuba, and was in service there un-
til his death.
