PIPES OF PEACE.

 Esteemea by Indians.

 Esteemea by Indians.
 Nearly every Indian tribe has some Interesting legend connected with the bloodred stone of the Pipestone quar- ries of Minnesota. One tale is that long ago two fierce bands of Winnebagoes and Sioux. the braYest of their respec- tive tribes, met in conflict here They fought ali day. from early morn untK set of sun. until the chieftain of one band was slain. Some of the warriors escaped, and some were made eaptives Among the eaptiyes 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 In dying she predicted that the Great Spirit would throw her blood upon the sun s 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. Att traeted by the Indian tales he had 2 heard in the summer of 1886, in com pany with a young English gentleman and his trnsty Indian guide, he started on horseback from St. Anthony's Falls to explore the region. It appears that the Indian tribes have long aeld the place in superstitious estimation, and also that it has been the resort of d1E. ferent tribes, who have made their regular pilgrimage there to renew their pipes. 1t 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 tribes have tradi ion that the red men were all created from the red stone and that 1t is thereby part of their flesh. Such Was the superstition of the Sioux on this subject that we had great diff dcnlty in 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 ever seen it and that none should.
 Children and Ghose E. arfcs.
 Ile attempt to keep your children ia ignorance of stories about ghosts. fairies, giants and gypsies would eer- tainIy prove fntile.. If they are of a nervous and imaginative temperament they will invent new terfors for them. selves instead of the ole traditional ones. A little girl of six. who had been jealous1y guarded against any acquaintance with nursery bogies and superstitlons, suffered from night ter TOTS of a severe kind, in which she always screamed out that she was be. ing chased by robbers. But while 1t may be impracticable to protect chil- dren from a knowledge of the super natural aid mysterious, it is inexcus- able to frighten them with hideous stories or to leave shem a prey to thu terrnrs Of tfsn solitude and darkness.
 Outdoor Air Gaeeai.
 The man reason why consunptives are sent to New Mexico is that it is al- ways warm enough there to stay out doors. Staying out Of doors is the specific for almost every i'll.

German Americans feel that they
have been misled and betrayed by
President Mckinley" So says
Editor Oswald Ottendorfer, of the
New York Stats Zeituug.
How could President Mckinley
be false to the German Americans
without being false to the whole body
of American citizens?" Thus COM
ments the startled New York Times.
President Mckinley made nc prom
Use to German Americans that he did
not make to the entire country. Mr..
Ottendorfer is right. The party in
power hes not kept faith With the
people.
The German Americans did not
bargain for the gangreue Of imperial
ism. They did not bargain for the
military rule and civil ruin Of Porto
Rico. They did not bargain for the
useless war in the Philippines. or fol

these things. They see the evil clear

II was just stepping OF the street
car" remarked the old printer, who
was telling story, "when met two
niclxer face to face"
"You met a what?p
"A two-nicker. And as ] was say
ing, She"
"But what in the world is a two
nicker?"
"oh. you know what that is, don't
your"
NO, ] don't. Never met one in my
Iife."
"Well, two-Dicker is a lady, wom-
an, anything that wears petticoats."
81 never heard the expression before.
Where does Il come frorn?"
Nov, you're too hard for me. I
don't know where 1t started, but in
the good old times OF case type and hand
presses II was the common expression
used to designate a woman in print
shop. 1t wasn't used outside of the
composing rooms. I'll tell you how /
think It arose. All the old hand type,
as everybody knows, is provided with
nicks on the side. so that the typeset-
tiers don't have 10 look at the face Of the
typs to know how to throw it in the
stick Far back, in prehistoric days,
the type had only one nick, but later
two hicks became the style, and 80
years ago two nicks was the usual thing.
But there came improvements in type
making, and it was discovered that
three or four hicks on the side Of the
type made it easier for the printer TO
handle, and so the three or four-nicked
type came into style and the two
nicked type went into disuse and bad re-
pute. Printers despised the two-nicked
type. About that time women got
foothold in the printing Offices. They
were not regarded with favor by the
printers. The women and the
two-nicked type were in about the
same category in the esteem of the
old typo. and it was very natural that
they should come TO express both by
the same words. They both became
two-nickers.' and the expression has
become traditional in printshops. s.

The congressional committees,
it is said, have at last tumbled to
the true status OF the white adopt
cd citizens in the Cherokee nation
and will let the Indian and the
Dawes commission settle it on the
lines of the old agreement. To
turn this matter over to the Wash
ington lobbyists and attorneys
would have been calamity in
that it would probably have tied
the matter up in the courts and
thus delayed the final settlement
indefinitely.

GAME BIRDS OUT OF SEASON.
Are Made Welcome TO Restau-
rant Patrons.

II assure you that both the yenison
and the birds are imported" said the
head waiter at one of the Broadway
restaurants when patron protested
against the service of game out of
season. 1T is brought over in the
French steamers, and is not Amer
lean game at all, though we do not
tell our patrons of that unless they
make objections, as you have done" /"
So the man who would not have the
game law violated tried French quail,
and found it to be wonderfully like
the same sort of bird he had been in
the habit of shooting at, at least, in
this country How about that for
an explanation? asked the scribe of
the steward, with whom he had had a
sufficiently long acquaintance to war
rant a familiar chat together. "Well,
the waiter went the limit, I must
say. He had been told to say the
game was imported, but the French
business was fancy Of his own, and
does not bear the official stamp of the
house. OF course, it is an open secret
that they are imported from no more
distant point than the cold storage
warehouses, where there is always a
supply of most any sort of game for
the right purchasers. Our patrons
want it, and we have to give them
what they ask for, or else lose their
trade. We never ask too many ques-
tions about game out of season, for
the whole business is too ticklish to
have much to do with, and of course
it does not pay. Still, don't see
that we are any worse than the men
who run the eating houses at Sara
toga, particularly those along the
shore Of the lake that have such a
reputation for their petite suppers for
two. I was there during the racing
last August. and had the most de-
ncious chicken partridge I ever ate
in my life. 1t was out of season, of
course, and it was all wrong to serve
the half-grown birds. But the pa
irons Of the places demand that sort
Of fare and are willing to pay for it.

ing no questions, 1 happened TO see
