Pertinacious Untruthfulness IL a
Dominant Trait of the south
African Kamrs.

The kaffir makes an interesting
study. You cannot understand him all
at once 1t requires time, and a good
deal Of it. A new arrival thinks the
kafRr is born prevaricator of the
truth, and has his reasons for so think
ing, says the London Mail.
Suppose you catch a boy" commit
ting a misdemeanor. Ask him what
ne has been doing, and he will look up
in your face, picture of innocence,
and reply: "Ikona, baas"-plump de-
nial. Tell him you saw him do it,
threaten him with punishment, he will
still persist in maintaining his inno-
eence He win still plead ignorance
Of the misdeed and mutter in astonish-
ment or fear: "Il1ona, baas." In fact,
he knows nothing whatever about it.
If the offense be one that cannot be
overlooked you proceed to administer
reproof-with the foot, If you are not
particular and wish to be impressive.
What does he do? If he is raw
boy" and not used to it, he runs off
with terrified look on his face; if he
is used to it he retires precipitately
with satisfied smile, not necessarily
because he has got the thrashing. but
because he no longer has it to look
forward to.
The only explanation for the sys-
tematie lying of the native in face of
the most convincing proof is that the
native mind is totally unable to form
a conception of what we understand
by truthfulness.

DESERVED HER CRACKER.
This Parrot Awoke Her Master when
burglars Came, and saved
the Silver.

A Philadelphia writer relates the
story of parrot that protected her
owners home from burglars, who had
eneered through one of the front par
lor windows. They crept through the
ballroom past the bird and began
jimmying open the sideboard in the
dining-room, where the silver was kept.
One of the other men gathered up the
costly Turkish rugs on the floors and
another was taking down the curtains
when Polly spoke up.
rs that you, Frank?" she queried.
The burglars stopped as if they had
been shot. Polly repeated the question
in louder and more imperative key.
The noise Of the parrot awakened her
master, Mr.. Fister. He grasped a re-
volver, which he had bought only few
days before, and kept under his pill
low, and made for the head of the stairs.
He pressed an electric button on the
wall and lit the lights in the ballroom,
when he saw three men struggling to
open the front door. He promptly
opened fire, but they succeeded in get
ting away. Mr.. Fister then went down
stairs, where he found the parrot in
her cage under the piano. The cage
was upset, but the bird uninjured. The
owner placed her right side up upon
the piano, when she lifted her fright
ened head from under her wing and
asked:

VORTEX IN THE AIR.
The Cause of Dust WhirIs and show
ers of Queer Things Which De-
scend from the Sky.

Vortex laotion in the atmosphere,
though seldom obtrusively patent in
England, must certainly be reckoned
with, and all ascending currents, from
whatsoever cause, appear of this ma
ture. Dust whirls in spring and twist
ing columns of dry leaves or hay in
summer and autumn are evidences of
the existence of such upward currents.
But the aeronaut can detect them on a
larger scale, and penetrating sometimes
far aloft. This, says the National Re
view, is only what might be expected
from statistics relating TO such phe-
nomena where they occur in greater
earnest in other parts of the globe.
1t is classical history how dust
showers have arisen on the west coast
of Africa and descended again on yes
sells far out on the Atlantic; how Scot
land has been visited by storm of
pumice debris which was supposed to
have had its origin in Yesuvius; how
showers of fish or Of frogs have de-
scended from the sky, having been
swept into lofty regions entangled in
the bosom of a whirlwind sufficient to
bear them whittier it listed The dust
of Krakatao, committed to the lofty
winds by the force of its own eruption
in 1883, travelled over the globe in out
ward courses almost without limit be-
fore settling to earth weeks or months,
Or, possibly, years. afterward.

MORMON WIVES
L. Many Instances the Husband was
Devoted 10 the One Who
Could Cook Best.

Philadelphia woman who lived in
Salt Lake City for a number Of year.
under the old order of things relates
some customs there which are intensely
interesting, says the Philadelphia Rec.
ord. She says:
"The Mormon law required man 10
provide house, wood and -four for each
five wives lodged in the Beehive. Brig
ham Young himself violated the sepa-
rate house obligation, as he had 25 wives
lodged in the Beehive and rs in
the Lion house, low buildings with
inclosing walls and gateways, sur
mounted by figures Of lion and bee
hive.
How peaceful and harmonious the
Lion house was may be inferred from
the fact that one Of Brigham Young's
sons on one occasion seized knife and
tried TO carve up the cook, and the
whole rs wives held this, their son,
blameless. The story ran that, adjudi-
eating the case, Brigham emulated the
wisdom of Solomon and desired the par
ties TO the conflict TO assume the orig
inal positions they held during the fray,
but the cook declined to take the extra
risk.
Each Mormon man was expected to
have four wives, SO he built row Of
four little houses on an acre lot. Each
wife had front and back door and two
windows, and quarter acre ground
to cultivate. The husband was sup
posed to spend week with each wife,
but usually he gave the most of his
time to the one that was the best cook.
Some Of the wives craved their hus-
bands society, but others, who found it
very expensive to board him, preferred
that he should lavish the greater part
of his society on the other members of
his family"

Webster defines imperialism as 'the

peror; the spirit OF empire" Is Mckin-
lcyism synonymous with imperialism?
asks the Livington (Mont.) Enterprise.
If the power, authority or character OF
his administration is similar to that Of
some admitted case of Imperialism fur
nisllcd by history, the charge OF imperi-
alism is then proved. Take the case OF
Porto Rico. 1t is conquered province
and does McKinley's authority there as
sumo the character of imperialism?
What are McKinlcy's powers in this
province? Compare the rights OF the
Porto Ricans with those of Mckinley in
the conduct and affairs OF their own
country:
HE (McKinley) appoints the COVER
nor.
HE (McKinley) appoints the execu-

HE (McKinley) appoints the higher

THE CLERGY OF IRELAND.
Described In "My Citrate" by Father
Sheehan.

| have been now in touch with three
generations of Irish priests, each as dis
tinct from the other, and marked by as
distinctive characteristics as those
which diffcrcntiate an Anglican parson
from medieval monk. My early edu-
cation was colored by contact with the
polished, studious, tnlid priests, who,
educated in continental se1ninaries in
PRODUCED into Ireland all the grace and
dignity and holiness and all the dread
Of secular authority with the slight ten
dency to compromise that seemed to
have marked the French clergy at least
in the wars Immediately succeeding the
revolutions and the Napoleonic wars.
These were the good men who frater-
nizc;l with landlords and lent their con-
grcgations to a ncighboring parson on
the occasion OF some governmental visi-
tation; who were slightly tinged with
Gallican ideas and hated progress and
the troubles which accompanied it.
They were good. holy, kindly men, but
they could hardly be called officers OF
the church militant. Then came May
ncoth, which, founded on governmental
subsidies, poured from its gates the
strongest, fcrccst, most fearless army
OF priests that ever fought for the spr-
itual and temporal interests OF the peo-
p1e-mcn OF large physique and iron
constitution, who spent ten hours day
on horseback, despiscd French clarct,
loved their people and chastised them
like fathers, but were prepared to defend
them with their lives and the outpour-
ing OF their blood against their hercdi-
tary enemies. Intense in their faith, OF
stainless lives and spotless reputation,
their words cut like razors and their
hands smote like lightning, but they had
the hearts of mothers for the little ones
of their flock. They had the classics at
