There is blind negro employed ut
the Yazoo & Mississippi Valley station
at Shelby, Miss. who is certainly n
wonder, says the Memphis Commercial
Appeal The darkey's name is Marshall
Bright. He is totally bereft of the
power Of sight, Notwithstanding this
physical hindrance Marshall attends to
all the duties of a porter around the
station He handles freight, puts out
switch lights and seals freight cars as
correctly as any person could do who
is blessed with good sight. In fixing
the switch lights in the evening he
adjusts the flame of the lamp by pass
ing his finger over the blaze. His
sense of touch Is so acute that he can
tell Just when the lampwicll is prop
erly adjusted. Bright has been EN-
ployed around the station for a num-
ber of years and although he is con
stantly around the railroad tracks he
has had but one mishap Several years
ago, before he became thoroughly IA
miliar with the trains. he was brushed
off the track by slowly moving train

South Afrlca,a Lafayette.

Col. de Villebois-Mareuli Gen. Jou-
bert's chief of staff, the Frenchman to
whom undoubtedly the Beers owe a
large measure of the success that has
attended their campaign against the
British, is So years old. He was gradu-
ated from the military academy at St.
Cyr in 1868, and began his career as a
lieutenant of the marine infantry, sery-
ing in Cochin-China. Later he was
transferred to the chasseurs, and as
captain took part in the Loire battles
In 1870. He was severely wounded at
Blois, and for gallantry displayed in
that action he received a decoration
Some years later he was made a major
and acted as chief OF the staff in AL
giers. After 80 years of service he re-
signed, but was only out a short time
when he resolved to use his experience
in behalf of the Beers, who call him
the South African Lafayette" and "the
Won Moltke of the Beers" He Is said
to have personally commanded the
troops at Colenso, and is now with the
Beers who are confronting Lord Rob-
erts.

falo Slowly, but surely, the great
herds OF these beautiful animals which
roam the plains OF Washington, Idaho

the last two years at least $4,000 head

saddle horses 10000, broken for use by
new settlers in Washington 10000, died
in the last two winters 5000. This loss
has been double the natural increase,

THE "PIoEoN CURE" IN PAIRS.


IL NtnAtlfsh
If the following facts were not
vouched for by a highly distinguished
physician, DR.. G.. Legue, it would be
permissible to regard them as an in
vention suggested by sundry of the
marvellous cures" in vogue in the mid
die ages. says a Paris correspondent
of the Pail Mall Gazette. DR.. Leguo
was put on the track of his curious
discovery by one of his patients, who
Informed him in the most casual man
ner, and as If there were nothing OK
traordinary about the statement, that
she had tried the pigeon cure" for
meningitis and for the first time with
limited success. Or. Legue had to
confess his entire ignorance of the cure
in question and to ask for an explana-
tion of Its nature. Ii was then reveal
ed to him that in this skeptical age
and in Paris, Of all places in the world,
there are people who believe in the
eftlcaciousness, as remedy for certain
maladles, of the blood of freshly
killed pigeon The head of the patient
to he treated is shaved and then the
breast of the pigeon is ripped open by
the operator" and the warm and
bleeding carcass Immediately applied
to the barred skull The believers in
this cruel and senseless cure imagine
that all fever is drawn ont of the body
by the hot lfeblood and the quiverlng
flesh of the pigeon. The extraordinary
thing is that faith in the cure is wide
spread and recourse to It frequent. DR..
Legue, who has thoroufhly investgat-
ed the matter has been able to obtain
the address of shop in the Central
market at which nothing else is sold
but live pigeons destined to this
strange purpose. The business done is
so brisk that the late proprietor Nine.
Michel, has been able to retire, after
making small fortune. Her successor
declares that the pigeon cure is consid-
cred a sovereign remedy for influenza,
since the appearance of which she has
been unable to meet the demand that
has arisen for birds. They are also
used. it seems, in cases of typhoid fe-
vcr, but in this instance two pigeons
ere necessary.

NEW TIMBER RULING.
Which Will Greatly Affect the Timber
 Lands of this Territory.


 The interior department has made a late ruling regarding the cutting of timber on government lands which will greatly affect this territory. The rul- ing is in effect only plainer explan- atiOn of previous ruling, which were often miscOnstrued and violated, the burden of proof that they had been misconslrued being thrown upon the government. The present ruling shifts lhe burden upon the viOlator. It will be observed that smelling is made distinct frOIn mining. The ruling went into effect last Wednesday. It is as follows:
 By virtue of the power vested in the secretary of ihe interior ty the first section of the act of June g. 1878. entitled "An act authorizing the citi- zens of Colorado, Nevada and the ter ritOries to fell and remove timber on the public domain for mining and do- nestle purposes" the following rules and regulations are hereby prescribed ::
 l. The act applies to ihe states of Colorado, Nevada, Montana, Idaho, Wyoming, North Dakota and Utah, and the territories of New Mexico and Arizona, and all other mineral districts of the United States.
 ''2. The land from which timber may be felled or removed under the provisions of this act, must be known to be of a strictly mineral character and mot subject to entry under exist. ing laws of the United States. except for mineral entry.' Parties who take
The Coconino sun., 1900-02-17

timber from the public lands under assumed authority of this act must stand prepared to show that their acts are within the prescribed terms Of the law granting such privilege, the bur den being on such parties of proving by preponderance of evidence that the land from which the timber is taken is mineral within the meaning of the act.
 ''3. The privileges granted are con fined 10 citizens of the United States aud other persons, bona fde residents of the states, territories and other min- eral districts provided for in this act.
 "4. The uses for which timber may be felled or removed are limited by the wording of the act to building, agricultural, mining, or other domestic purposes
 ''5. No timber is permitted to be felled or removed for purposes of sale or traffic. or to manufacture the same into lumber or other timber product as an article of merchandise or for any other use whatsoever, except as defined in section of these rules and regulations.
 '6. No timber cut or removed under the provisions of this act may be trans- ported out of the state or territory where procured.
 ~. No timber is permitted to be used for smelting purposes, smelling being separate and distinct industry from that of mining.
 "8. No growing trees of any kind whatsoever less than eight inches in diameter are permitted to be cut.
 "9. Persons felling or removing timber under the provisions of this act must utilize all of each tree cut that can be protitably used, and must dis
