PIPES OF PEACE.
gAoss NTa de of Biood-Red stone nsss
 Esteemea by Indians.


 Nearly every Indian tribe has soma Interesting legend connected with the blood-red stone of the Pipestone quar- Ties of Minnesota. One tale is that long ago two fierce bands of Winnebagoes and Sioux, the bravest Of their respec- tive tribes, met in conflict here. They fought all day. from early morn untik get of sun, until the ehieftain of one band was slain. Some of the warriors escaped, and some were made captives Among the captiYes was the chieftain's daughter. Being very brave and fair. she was chosen by one chief as his share of the spells. Refusing, how ever, to become his bride, she was doomed to the stake. h dying she predicted that the Great Spirit would throw her blood upon the suns rays to her people far away, and that the stone under her feet would be forever tinted with her blood. Catlin, the famed ex- plorer of Indian country, was the first white man to visit this locality At. sraeted by the Indian tales he had heard in the summer of 1886, in com. R4Aa4S Wtt3 d fOui& 1uBitsH SSulleAhA and his trusty Indian guide, he started on horseback from St. Anthony's Falls 10 explore the region. It appears that She Indian tribes have long held the place in superstitious estimation, and also that it has been the resort of dfst gerent tribes, who have made their regular pilgrimage there to renew their pipes. It is also evident that these people set an extraordinary value on the red stone, independent of the fact that it is more easily carved and makes better pipes than any other stone. Whenever an Indian presents a pipe of it, he gives it as something from the Great Spirit. and some of the tribea have tradi ion that the red men were all created from the red stone and that 1t is thereby q part of their flesh. Such was the superstition of the Sioux on this subject that we had great dif- aeulty ip approaching it, being stopped by several hundred of them, who or dered us back and threatened us very hard, saying that no white man had SyeF seen it and that none should.

Rays Find False Teeth.

Albert Brown, all aged and paralytic citizen of Paterson, N. j., was out and in a set of false teeth for two days. He swallowed them Sunday, and as he could not speak the whereabouts of the artificial grinders was a mystery. IL was decided that since he could not have walked away with them and could not have thrown them away be-. cause of his paralyzed condition, he must have swallowed them. The K rays discovered tbs missing set of mouth upholstery snugly reposing in the upper part of the esophagus. They were successfully removed and clamp. ed to their proper position.-~New York Journal.

An rxtraordlnary Occurrence.

An extraordinary occurrence was res ported in Leicester, England, recently. Special intercession services for sol- diers fighting in South Africa are be- ing held daily in Broughton Astley church. While the bell was being rung. however, and the congregation enter ing the church, a strange visitor ar rived. It appeared that the Atherstone hounds had met at Ullesthorpe, found two foxes at Frolesworth Gerse, and followed one across the fields to Broughton Astley. Here the fox, being hard pressed, and seeing the church door open, sought sanctuary there, but the hounds, being close to his heels. followed him into the church, caught him, and there and then dispatched him.

Cscsb Deposits of the Precious Metaa
 Every Year.
 There are localities where gold may be said to grow every year. or, in other words. where fresh deposits of the precious metal are to be found annu- ally, says Answers '' One such dis trict is in the Edmonton country, in he Canadian northwest, where, after he spring floods from the same banks and benches" of the Saskatchewan river, there are taken every year con- siderable quantities of gold by q few diggers, who make their living out of the business. But the most eonspicu- ous and interesting case of this sort Is to be seen near Ichang, in the pro- vince of Hupeh, in China. For many centuries past each year gold has been washed from the banks of coarse gray q on both sides of the River Han, and in the midst of the auriferous district there is an ancient town called Uiku- tien, which means Gold Diggers' Inn." It's inhabitants subdiyida the gold bearing ground among themselves an- nuaily, stalking out their claims with partitions They pay no royalty and appear to earn no more than bars subsistence, but this may be doubted, as John Chinaman is an adept at 'lay- in low and sayin' nofin'." The an- nuaI river floods bring down millions of tons of mud and sand, which is charged with gold, both "fnes and in flakes, is deposited to depth of six Inches or more on the banks of gravel. It is in the winter that the gold is washed, and it is said that seven men work about twenty tops of the "pay dirt. in fay

 Italians in Rome have a delightful little game, which is called the Pas. Fatella." It Is played mostly nowadays n low drink shops, and as it leads fre- auently to murder. the police are anx- Eous to stop It. Round table some men are smoking. At the head sits man with flask Of wine and a glass before him. He is the president OK She party. All the company includ- Ing the president, have paid for that flask of one, but not one of them can arink drop of it unless the president gives permission. He, however, may drink as often as he likes. When he passes the glass to another that other may drink until the president cries ~Stop!" and the glass is passed to the next. Sometimes the "Stop!" comes before a single drop Is drunk. This is the fun for the others who are allow ed to drink. A good-natured president rarely repeats this joke, but it some- times happens that he has a grudge against one of the men, and then the unfortunate victim sits the whole ev- sning, smoking and frowning, while he aees al. the others drink but himself. This is making an "Olmo" of himi And woe to president who would make an "0lmo" of the same mar twice, for he would soon have a knife run across his throat.

Then, if what the city engineer con-
tends is correct, the board of public
works is a mere cipher" observed Mr..

Ridiculous" retorted Mr.. Fabian. Il
understand the city attorney holds to a
different opinion to what the engineer
says. But 1 think the city council
should either discharge the engineer or
the board, and get some one who will
work in harmony"
This ended the discussion, and a mo-
ton was carried directing that copies
of the correspondence on the entire sub
ject be transmitted to the council this
evening, together with d brief explana-
tory letter from the boards acting

After approving a number of claims
to go to the council for order of pay

ing a vitrified pipe to the high line tank
in City Greek canyon was opened. The
price proposed was 1924 but by reason
of the fact that the bid had lain IN
opened since Dec. 4, and that il is now
too cold for work Ia cement-laying, the
firm asked that their proposal be re-
turned, so they could add GOO TO the
offer. The request was referred to the
