saEacious Bird, Named NapOIean, Keeps
Guard.
An ostrich watchman is the latest
trained wonder in Florida. He can be
seen every night making his rounds
through the pens of an ostrich farm
near Jacksonville, says a correspond
ent Of the Philadelphia Times. About
week ago the sagacious bird, which
has been named Napoleon, proved his
capacity for the appointment. About
eight months ago the owners Of thiS
herd Of ostriches established the farm
at this place. Previous to this time
and since 1885, when they made their
first importations of birds into this
country they carried on their extensive
farm in California. Attracted by the
salubrious climate and the shorter dis
tance to their markets, they determin-
cd upon this step When they estab-
'ished their farm at Jacksonville, they
added as an especial attraction speci-
mems Of many rare birds and animals
capable of easy domestication. Amor
thC AOl AGI was uOCh VI ONcI E'V
golden and other varieties of phe
SAINTS. In the course of events this
fact became known to the many color
ed gentry, and knowing the darky's
natural penchant for "chickin'," the
owners feared for their latest purchas-
es. The pheasants, they J:new, would
be tempting, because all birds look
alike to coons, and these resembled
more than anything else, nice, fat
yellow-legged roosters, and so would
Jecome doubly tempting. Nor were
The fears Of the owners groundless.
The "cullod" population rapidly pass
ed through the stages Of hearing, in
vestigating and finally seeing. At this
stage of the game the owners of the
ostrich herd took steps to prevent the
loss Of their property, and Napoleon
was called into reQuisitian.

FUTURE OF INDIAN GIRLS.
Plans for Teaching Them the old
Household Arts,

Plans for Teaching Them the Old
Household Arts,
1t is said that a good many people
who are interested in the future of the
Indians feel sure that one of the most
serious problems is what to do with
the young girls who have been edu-
Gated in the government schols. When
they return to their homes in the vari-
Gus reservations they find so little to
work with that a large part Of their
education is as good as wasted. A Bos-
ton lady has just received a copy Of
a letter, written by Miss NJ. e. Dis
settle, supervising teacher at Santa Fe
which outlines a plan for helping some
of the Pueblo girls and women and
making their education useful. The
aim is to show them how to make the
best of their limited resources, to take
care of family wi*N the most comfort
on the smallest amount Of cash, and to
lift the home above the level Of
squalor. To bring this about the Eng
lish-speaking girls will be taught to
make soap and candles by hand, to
spin wool, kait stockings by machine
and by hand, weave clothing that will
be acceptable to their own people.

WHY MOUTHS ARE REFORMED
Smokers Are Not Ca. efql Selecting
Pipes.


Physicians throughout the country
Kenerally have been called upon to
treat large number of cases of spithe-
leoma of the lips. This disagreeable
compls.nt is charged almost entirely
10 tie pipe-smoking habit. Some sur
gcons are of the opinion that the imi'
cation of amber used in the manufac"
ture of mouthpieces for cheap pipes
has much to do with the alarming in
crease in the disease, while all of them
agree that the majority Of cases are
directly traceable to the short clay
pipes smoked by thousands of labor
ers. The hospital records show that
over SO per cent of all th" cases treated
were laboring men over 40 years OF
age. The heat brought close to the
lips by the short-stemmed clay pipes
causes a small blister to form, and the
sm0 er promptly picks it and keeps
on smoking. Then a hard, knotty
wart forms where Che blister first ap-
peared and soon the whole mouth is
involved and sometimes the tongue
swells to enormous size The warty
growths multiply until the chin is en-
tirely covered and the mouth protrudes
far beyond the nose. The surgeons
cut away the entire growth and fash
ion an entirely new mouth out Of flaps
drawn from the cheeks and so much
of A.e chin as may remain unaffected.
The operation is one of extreme deli
cacy, and when properly executed the
patient is inflicted with FISH mouth,
that gives a very funny expression to
the face.

satuarv in Now York city.

The barbarians who used some of
the greatest works OF classic art to
build walls with are held in deserved
odium by the posterity they have
robbed of great heritage; but on
seeing some of the horrors they have
spared to crowd the Louvre and the
Vatican and other galleries, one can
only grant them the benefit of the
doubt and say that incidentally they
may have saved us many a shock
And one must remark what excellent
walls could be made out of some OF
the marble now misplaced in New
York's statuary, and how prettily
some of the bronze would simmer in a
melting pot. - Rupert Hughes, in

able soldiers among the Beers. Com
mandant Olivier recently performed a
brilliant feat in landing his army Of
5000 men and wagon train, 25 miles
long, between the British lines and the
BAsutoland border. without losing a
gun, a wagon, or a man, although the
British cavalry was scouting all over

other strong commander. He ranks
among the first, although little heard

pansberg department, and has 10000
Kaffirs under him. He is a rampant
Boer agitator and as fond Of fighting
as a Matabele warrior. 1t is not hard
to understand this when it is known
that he is an Irish-Boer descendant Of
the old stock that finds its way so
strangely into all lands under all flags,
but is still ever proud Of its Irish
blood. Tom Kelly speaks only Dutch

ment of the highest type Of human kind.
St Paul is surely privileged; is to
be congratulated in having officials who.
filled with municipal patriotism, mark
the era of their official life with acts
which place their city in the front rank.
Now, then, in the name Of our peo-
pie, and particularly in the name of our
laboring people, let me thank you a
thousand times for this magnificent gift.
Long live our city, long live our patriotic

A short band concert followed the
speeches made by Dr. Ohage and the
mayor. Then Governor Lind was called
upon for an address. He spoke but a few
moments congratulating the city on its
acquisition and indorsing generally the
idea of thoroughly sanitary public baths.
He said the people of a period were
judged in later centuries by the greatness
and availability of their public works
they constructed and that public baths
had always been one of the foremost
marks of growing civilization and re-
fnement. In the same way the people of
future generations would look upon such
public institutions as the st. Paul pub
lie free baths, which would always be
a mark Of credit to the municipality.

The explanation given by City Clerk
Jensen as to how it was possible for the
lock on the ballot box from the Tenth
precinct to be found on5.the box In which
ballots cast in the Fourth precinct were
returned was perhaps convincing to the
referees.
Mr. Jensen's statement was that no par

on the boxes except to seeS that the locks
were for the same ward. as keys for
each ward opened all the boxes in the
ward precincts.
1t was noticed, however, that the lock
on other boxes opened during the rest OF
the afternoon agreed in each case win
the precinct in which the ballots had been
cast.
J. H Mitchell, one of the referees en-
gagged in the Benson-Parker contest,
stated during the talk which followed that
he had noticed that in three out of four
boxes brought in to be recounted by him
