Lees ferry now is. It was cold and
stormy day, and Mus ha was out seeing
after some of his stock that he wished
to have moved. While he and his help
ers watched, the white men essay ed to
cross the river in rude boat which
they had hastily constructed. That
they were ignorant of the dangers
which beset them Musha could soon
see. They evidently did not realize the
swiftness of the river, nor the fact
that little below them was the en-
trance to Marble canyon, in which rapid
succeeded dangerous rapid for many
miles.
Though he did not wish for the ad-

his heart was tender and gentle, and

women and children washed into the

VICTORY OF THE CAMERA.
It Has Accomplished an sInvasion OF
the Turkish Harem and Taken
s>,E the Beauties.

The camera has won another VIC
tory. It has invaded the Turkish
.harem. The queen of the: harem,
who, according to contemporary art
lists, spends her time, reclining Ian.
guidly upon gorgeous cushions,
famed by picturesque slaves, will be
shown in her habits as she lives, and
one more ARABIAN Nights" illusion
will be shattered, says the Baltimor,
Sun.
OF course, it is expressly forbid
den that the photographs of women
shall be circulated outside of the fam
lily, but presumably feminine vanity
fourishes as well in Turkey as in
any other country, AID the chances
that pictures will no: pass beyond
the harem are hardly worth the risk
of white chip.
The most famous photographer of
Constantinople is the only one to
whom the sultan has granted the
privilege of photographing the Turk
ish women, and it is safe to suppose
that he is an object of envy to his
less fortunate fellow-citizens. The
photographer is recent consert to
Islam, and the sultan may have de-
cided to show him wh<st could oe done
in the line of hours by way of clinch-
ing his zeal.
The amateur photography craze,
which is spreading in Turkish home
steads, opens possibilities mere anus
ing than the favored professional
does. It is said that the women,
whose enforced seclusion makes them
seize upon any diversion with en-
thusiasm, have taken to the pastime
and are photographing everything in
sight.
One of the Turkish correspondents
of French paper tells an entertain
ing bit OF gossip in regard to one
Turkish household which has been
undergoing most violent disturbances,
all because the other women saw
their chance of getting back at the
favorite of their lord and master.
They got snap shots of her in her
bad tempers and her unbecoming
clothes, and part of the collection
having CHANGED to fall into the hands
of the vain beauty there were storms
that rent happy home asurder and
made one naughty Turk wish he had
never been born.

POCKET MONKEYS IN FAVOR
Diminutive and Engaging PITS That
Are Brought from the
3 :t..~ WildS of BRAZIL

The latest fad in the way O.: pets is
the pocket monkey. 1t is onlT about
two years since the little fellow made
his first appearance in this couotry in
his present capacity, and he might be
said to have taken the hearts of pet
lovers by storm, says the New York
Sun. Now his popularity has tccome
SO great that the men who make "A bust
ness of catering to the whims If the
people who like pets say that the de-
mand for the pocket monkey is five
times asgreat as the supply. They pre-
dict a bright future for the new IA
vorite just as soon as the people down
in Brazil can be made to understand
what good commercial article they
have and thus be induced to make a
regular business of capturing these
monkeys and shipping them up here.
The pocket monkey dwells so far in
the interior of Brazil as to be almost
out of the reach of traders. He is,
perhaps, the smallest member of the
monkey family known, being about
five feet long, but with a tail that is
sometimes three times as long as his
body. He belongs to the marmot fam.
lily of monkeys, and is extremely neat
in person and clearly of habit. If it
wasn't for these characteristics he
would not be holding the place he
does in the hearts Of those who have
invested in him.
1--WE can't get enough of Them" said
a man who makes business of sell
ing pets. II have one here that have
been offered $50 for, but the average
price is $25. They are the finest little
acrobats I've ever seen. For instance,
here's a cage made on purpose for
pocket monkey. You will notice that
it resembles miniature gymnasium.
There are trapezes, horizontal bars and
all sorts of things Of that kind. Now,
If the pocket monkey didn't find them
in his house. he would be heart-broken.
OF course they don't perform just
: whenever one wants them to, but in
the morning, just after they have
walked up, you will find them doing
every conceivable gymnastic stunt,
and if you don't laugh, you are per-
son with no sense of humor."

ble4 on the lands of the Hopi. The
village chief was named Tuba, and,
seeing how futile it >wou1d' be to
quarrel with the powerful white
men, he urged a conciliatory- plan of
procedure. In accordance with this
the Mormons were allowed certain
portions of the land to use and a Ger.
tain proportion of the common wa.
ter supply for irrigation purposes.
AS a mark of appreciation tie Nor.
mons called their new settlement
Tuba City, and thus Musha's land be-
came known by the name of a hopi
chief. -.
Year after year passed by. The
Mormons came to regard themselves
as settled in their home, and Musha
perforce kept friends with them. But
every now and then there would be an
open quarrel between some extraor-
dinarily ''hoggish" Mormon and the In.
dian he sought to wrong, and the OUT
side world would hear of another Nav
aho uprising, and wonder why the
government didn't use sterner mode
of suppressing these Indians.
While the policy of the government
to put army officers in charge of the
Indian reservations as agents was car.
ried out with the Navahoes, Lieut.,
'Plummer was the first army man to
hold this office as agent for the Nava-
hoes and Hopi. AS soon as he knew
the facts in Musha's case he laid the m
before the Indian commissioner. Later,
when Capt. Constant Williams took his
place, the subject was again taken up,
and this time by man determined
that the Indian should have his rights.
The Mormons clustered and raved and
swore and threatened, but the gallant
captain went on his way regardless of
everything except what he conceived
to be his duty, He urged the DEPART
ment at Washington, in season and out
of season, to take up the case and see
that Musha's land and springs were re-
turned to him. Obstacles of every kind
were put in his way, but these seemed
only to make him the firmer. He was
sent to this post to see that justice was
done to the Indians, and he was going
to see that it was done, regardless Of
threats at home or official distractions
in Washington. At last the matter was
properly put into shape and taken
into the courts. The Mormons con-
tended that peaceable" possession for
fully 20 years had acted as a waiver of
all the Indians original rights, even
'did he possess them, which they de-
MED. Last year the case was finally
adjudicated before the court which
was held at Flagstaff, and the claim of
the Indian was allowed. The Mormons
were given certain length of time to
remove from the lands and springs. and
the Indian departmen mt was to pay them
so much for their improvements.
Hence, at length, in his old age Musha
is to come again into the possession Of
his property, long stolen from him by
those who, years ago,iwere befriended
by him, and who would doubtless have
starved to death habit not been ifor
his open-handed hospitality. -.

Now one would naturally Il think

of the lands of Musha. There were

upset, only one persisted. For several

Musha's Claims Upheld By
Brave Army Officer.

Especial, Arizona letter.
Up IN the northeastern corner of
~ Arizona, just on the borders of
the Navajo Indian reservation
lives an old Indian known to his people
and the whites alike as Musha. The
poor old fellow is'crippled in both legs
with rheumatism, or some similar COM
plant, SO that for years he has been
unable to straighten out his limbs.
Even when he rides on the back of his
burro his poor, crooked knees reach
almost up to his chin, and give him
most pathetic appearance. But he is
not doleful by any means. No matter
when you meet him, he greets you
with q CHEEKY "Yat-a hay" and a
bright smile, and will always stop and
joyfully accept pinch of tobacco and
cigarette paper a. an: evidence of
good will.
Musha's life has been n eventful one,
and his last days have been clouded by
acts Of meanness and treachery that
,exemplify the too common treatment
the Indian has met with at the hands
of the whites. One day got him to tell
me his story, which he gave: with an
air of wounded generosity, which made
profound impression upon me. In
effect It was as follows:
Many long years ago when he was a
young man he had a!re ady gained pow
er amongst his people, the Navahoes,
by his warlike skill and daring cour-
age. He had been grantedallthe springs
and pasturage in a large territory, a
portion of which he still retains. He
had horses, sheep and goats, and in
several places good-sized fields of corn.
He was we'll to do and prosperous, and
in all great councils of his people his
voice was listened to as that of wise
and successful man.
One day band of white men and
women were seen ON the north side of
the Colorado river, at the place where
