sponded to Bismarck" and Col. G. w.

General Miles speech was quoted at
some length in the account of the ban
'quet appearing in the Bismarck Trib-
une the following week. He said his
duties as a soldier had called him to
the city and it surprised as we'll as
pleased him to be received in so enter
tanning a manner. He complimented

people, expressed surprise at the pro-
gress made by Bismarck, and conf
dence in it's future. He referred to
Chief Joseph and the wrongs suffered
by his people in the most feeling man
ner. He spoke of the Indian agent
who, by shrewd economy, had Laid
up" 100000 in a few short months;
spoke of the long march made by
Joseph from the Pacific coast to the
scene of his final surrender; compli-
mented his strategy and alluded to his
humanity to the wounded who fell into
his hands, and to the eloquent speech
made by Joseph on the occasion of his
surrender, in which he spoke of his
people and the sad havoc made among
them during the campaign-concluding
by saying, from where the sun now
stands I shall fight no more forever"
He was disposed to take Joseph al his
word and plead for kind treatment and
sympathy for the conquered chief.
The general also spoke of the Vel
lowstone country, OF the mineral
wealth known to exist in that region,
and insisted that Bismarck people did
not realize what a future there was in
store for them when that country, rich
in grass and minerals should be devel-
oped. He spoke OF its nutritious
grasses, not equalled by any other por-
ton Of the country ana of the immense
herds of buffalo that have fed and fat
tened upon them, and urged that the
region north Of Bismarck and the Mis-
souri, river was far preferable to any
to any country. between Texas and
the British line. While he regarded
the Indian a doomed race, and pointed
to the fact that he is slowly but
surely passing away, he believed that
he could be governed successfully by
kind and just treatment, and the days
of Indian warfare could thus be
ended.
DINNER TO CHIEF JOSEPH.
On the day following the Gen. Mel
son Miles banquet. a dinner party
was given to the captive chief
Joseph and his party of surrendered
warriors.
The lady boarders were given an op-
%portunity to be introduced to Joseph
in the parlors. 1t was on this oc-
casion that the celebrated "Injun"
kissing episode occurred. A Miss
Minnie Merrill, having expressed her.
self enthusiastically in regard to the
lofty mien and military bearing of
ChiFf Joseph, Lieut.. Josiah Chance in
a bantering manner dared the young
lady to kiss him, and on the spur of
the moment and through pure mis-
chief Miss Merrill planted a kiss on
the old chiefs cheek much to the sur
prise of Joseph and the %edifcation Of
the ladies present. This event was
heralded by eastern newspapers in
the most sensational manner and for
this bit of mischief Bismarck ladies

1t Is a good thing that the demo-
cratic party has no reputation to lose
for accuracy of statement. Facts are
stubbornly against them. They are,
wrong on silver. They are wrong in
predicting distress in Porto kico. They
are wrong in predicting the doom of
the republic in the event of McKinley's
reelection. and they are wrong by
about a million and a half votes in
their forecasts as to the election of
their candidate an November.

POINTERS ON MOSQUITOES.
Male Is Musician, but Female Is
 BIoodthirstY.

BlGodthirsty.
 When man hears for the first time that it is the female mosquito that does all the biting it makes him feel right glad. Further comfort is afforded oy the knowledge that the male mos- quito has probably the keenest musical sensibilities of any of his class of in- sects. He has quite brush of hairs on his antennae, and with them he hears Mayer stuck one of his kind on glass plate and sounded tuning forks about. When one tone was made certain hairs would vibrate, while ali the others were still. Another tone would start another set to vibrating. and so on. Also, if the tuning fork yere at one side of the mosquito, tha hairs on that antennae trembled most violently, so that when the male hears -or, rather, feels-the voice of his be- loved in one antennae, he wheels about SC that vibration is equal in both and tiies straight ahead to meet her. That IS about all there. is to the male mos quito, though, except that he cannot bite, for the sufficient reason that he has no apparatus with which to saw through the skin. So to speak, he has the pumps, but no drill. But the fe- male Is thoroughly equipped for get ting through even a politicians hide. The only mystery is what possesses her to want to bite at all. How did she come by her hapkering for blood? The scientists give it ID. If she laid her eggs ill the wound, like tke carrion fly, 1t would be easy to answer the question, but she doesn't. If she stung to defend herself, like the wasp, it would be easy. It must be her brutal passion for blood that prompts her to attack helpless human beings. She cannot get this craving by inheritance, for the chances are that none of her ancestors as far back as William the Conqueror ever had a taste of human blood, and yet sit out on your front stoop of an evening, and a mosquito, not half an hour out Of the water, will make as straight for you as if she had been born for that purpose. When one thinks of the great clouds of these torments that live and die in swamps where no warm -blooded animal ever comes, for fear of being mired, one can easily believe the estimate of entomol- egists that not one in million ever samples red hlood.-Ainslee's Maga- yinA

TESTING A NEW SHELL.
The Tsham Projectne Astonishes 2
 Number of Experts.

The Isham Projectlle Astonishes 2
 Number of Experts.
 The first considerable quantity of a high explosive to be fired from an or dinary gun against armor was sent against 12-ineh Haryeyized plate at the Sandy Hook proving grounds re- gently. The projectile was she'll in vented by Willard s. Isham, carrying 1291s pounds of explosive gelatine and weighing, loaded, a little more than 1000 pounds. It was fired from an or- dinary 12-inch sea-coast defense gun, with reduced charge, so that the velocity of the projectile at the plate was about the same as if it had been fired with full service charge of pow der at distance of two miles. The plate was backed with square oak beams and 20 feet of sand. The beams were so arranged as to represent more strength than the ordinary framing be- hind the armor of battleship. To make the test conform yet more to the condition of firing against an armored battleship, the plate was set at an angle of 45 degrees to the line of fire. There is no form of armor-piercing shell made that will perforate Harvey ized armor plate set at that angle, aud 1t was not expected that the Tsham shell would penetrate it. In fact, there was considerable diversity of opinion as to just what it would do, and q good many persons were interested in the results of yesterdays test. There was still doubt as to what had happened when the testing party started for the scene of the explosion from the firing point. The thick, dark smoke from the explosion of the shell showed that the full energy of its contents had not been developed, owing to an imperfect detonation. If perfectly detonated, a perfectly white smoke is made. In spite of the imperfect detol | the plate of armor was dented in about two inches and was blown through it's oak backing and through a corner of the big sand pile, IT feet from where il had been set up.-New York Sun.

flemarl1abIe Loss of Memory.

4 remarkable case Of Loss Of mem =9ry occurred ia London, England re- gently It appears that an old gen.
 leman. well dressed and apparently well to 10, was found by tine police wandering in Moorfelds. He was taken 70 the nearest police station, but, be- ing unable to give any satisfactory &C., count of himself, he was conveyed to Guys hospital. There 1t was found that he was suffering from loss of memory. and despite every device adopted nothing could be gleaned az to his identity. Upon his clothes be- ing searched an address, Spring Bank, Hull" was found upon him, and as the result of a telegram dispatched by ths police to that address it was ascer- tained that the old gentleman was Mr. George Patchett, who lived at the ad- dress given. He had been missed from Hull for some days, hut how and whsn he got to London neither his friends nor Mir. Patchett could say.

MORE BACHELORS THAN MAlpe
unmarri4d Men Are More Numerous
 Than Are Single Women.

r1nmarriad Men Are More Numerous
 Than Are Single Women.
 From the Cincinnati Enquirer: It appears that people generally are greatly mistaken in their notion that rhere is an enormous surplus of unmar- ried womel in this country. The truth js that n5 ueh excess of spinsters ex- ists: in fat, it is quite the other way, the baehel,5 outnumbering the maid ems. At the present moment there are in the Uuited States 2,200,00 more un- attached males than females similarly situated. tke exact figures being 5, 5,427,- 767 bachelors against 3,224, ,494 spin sters of ages from 20 years up. Thus # is obvious that if girls do not find husbands it is not for lack of a plenti- ful supply of the article. What is re- ouired, seemingl1, is general migra- ton of spinsters from the north and east to the great and growing west, in parts of which there are ten available mates for every maid. From the last remark, however, it must not be infer red that there is actually an excess of unmarried women in the northern and eastern states. Even in those parts of the country there are more bachelors than spinsters 20 years old and upward. notwithstanding the theory to the con- trary so widely accepted. No state in the union has as many maidens as bacheIors-not even Massachusetts, where the figures are 219,25 spinsters, against 226,0S5 bachelors. Massachu- setts is the banner state for spinsters, the bachelors outnumbe~ing them by only tWo-tenths of 1 per cent Next comes Rhode Island, where the excess of bachelors is 2 per cent. The ex- cess of bachelors in the District of Co., lumbia is per cent. in North Carolina g per cent, in New Hampshire g per cent, in Connecticut 20 per cent, in Maine 37 per cent and in Vermont 54 per cent. h Maryland the bachelor surplus is 19 per cent, in New Jersey it is 2 per cent, in New Yoek it is 26 per cent and in Virginia it is 14 per cent All of these are low percent ages so far as the superiority of bache- lors ia point Of numbers is concerned.
