TO gather from near and far at the COM

Swedes, Norwegians and foreigners in

offer them an opportunity of studying
the Scandinavian names and exercises,
which, like those of the ancient Greeks,
largely contribute to the strength,
hardness and agility of the people.
They can at the same time take cogni-

FOUR WAYS OF TATTOO1NG,
How Different Savage Races Produce
lndelib1e Marks ON the
Human Skin.

Fl. Ling Roth read paper at the
Bradford meeting of the British AS
ISOLATION for the Advancement of Sci
ence, recently, with lantern illustra-
ton, on Permanent Skin Marks, Such
as Tattooing and Scariication," in
which he observed that. whatever
may have been the original ideas, the
ultimate objects of tattooing became
manifold, including signs of prowess,
beauty, the married or manageable
state, high birth, protective influence
from evil spirits, enemies killed and
tribal marks. Mr.. Roth described four
systems or methods of tattooing, says
. London paper. The Tahitian meth
cd of "tattaow" was performed by
pricking or tapping with pigment, and
produced the smooth result such as
is seen in soldiers and sailors. The
Maoris of New Zealand adopted this
pricking method and also a cutting
method performed with a sharp, ADJ
like edge like a very narrow chisel.
This produced slight but permanent
grooves in the skin.
The third method was that adopted
In West Africa, and was similar to the
second, but the grooves produced
were deeper and wider and generally
no pigment was used. Lastly, there
were the curious raised marks of the
Tasmanians, Australians and Melan-
esians generally and the Central A.
rican tribes. In this case the cuts
were made with sharp-edged stones
and were continually reopened or ir-
ritated by the insertion of vegetable
juices or sand. Hence was produced
an abnormal amount of reparative ac-
ton and the wounds did not heal nat.
urally as healthy concave scars, but
developed into nodulous growths OF
sometimes considerable size. A photo
graph was shown on the screen of
native whose back was covered with
more than 30 of these raised scars,
produced by terrible pain and suffer
Ing.
DR.. Hatton observed that the true
Malays did not practice tattooing, nor
did the Sea Dayaks originally, but had
gradually adopted it from the inland
tribes. The settled interior tribes in
Rorneo tattooed the back of the hands
only after having been on the war
path and taken a head. Some tribes
tattooed only on the forearm, Shout
der and top Of the foot; never on the
face. The custom of some form of
tattooing has recently crept in among
the Papuans. The reason which the
women of these tribes in Borneo, the
Malay peninsula and the Solomon isles
gave for tattooing was that it gave
them light when they travelled into
the next world.
Mr.. Crooke made few remarks on
tattooing in Indian villages. During
the process, he observed, some form
of narcotic was given to the patient
mot opium, however, but generally
bung, narcotic preparation from
hemp. Though the origin Of the idea
may have been some form of totem
ism, or tribal mark, it was now merely
decorative, or, in some cases, religious.
The process was entirely in the hands
Of gypsy tribe.

of the day who heard this story told
it, with the teller, to the post COM
mander, and that veteran sat up
late and cross-questioned long. Mi
chefs English might be broken, but
not his statement. The last arrival
at Frayne before he left was one of
Mai. Burleigh's own men from Gate
City. He said the general and his
staff were expected at Emory the
next day, investigating matters, for
old Stevens had got stampeded be-
cause his sergeant major was assault
ed and old Folsom knocked out and
drunken captain by the name OF New
hall had been making trouble and it
had all told on Maj Burleigh, who had
taken to his bed with nervous prostra-
ton.
So, while the garrison went to rest
happy, the commanding officer walked
long, and finally slept soundly and
might have slept late, but that just at
dawn, full half an hour before the time
for reveille, there came sharp knock
ing at the door of his log hut, and the
imperative voice of the officer OF the
day:
Colonel, colonel, I say! There's
sharp firing out here in the hills to
the SOUTH"
The peaks to the west were just ting
ing with purple and red, reflected from
the eastward sky, and faint light was
beginning to steal down into the deep
valley in which the cantonment lay
sleeping, when the veteran commander
came hurrying out, half dressed, and
hied him, with his attendant officer, to
the southern angle of the stockade.
There on the narrow ledge or platform
built under the sharp tops of the up
right logs, were grouped the silent,
grave-faced guard, dozen men, intent
~ listening. Thither presently came
running others of the officers or men,
suddenly awakened by sense OF some
thing unusual going on. Far away
among the wooded heights to the
south, echoing from the rocky pail
sades to the west, could be heard the
pop, pop of distant musketry, pune
tuated sometimes with louder bang as
of large caliber rifles closer at hand.
Little time was there in which to
hazard opinion as to the cause. One or
two men, faint-hearted at the thought
of the peril of Indian battle and hope
full of influencing the judgment of their
superiors, began the murmur of "big
hunt" buffalo drive" ETC., glancing
furtively at the colonel the while as
though to observe the effect. But an
imperative "Silence, you idiots!" from
the officer of the day put sudden end
to their conjectures. Only moment
did the commander listen. Then, quick
and startling, came the order: Sound
to arms!" an6 within the minute the
stirring peal of the cavalry trumpet
was answered by the hoarse thunder
of the snare drum, beating the long
roll Out from their "dog tents" and

too, are hoping for orders to move out
and help you give that internal old
scoundrel the thrashing he deserves.
All has been quiet hereabouts since
that one party made its dash on Hal
Folsom's ranch. OF course you know
the story of Lizette, and of course Red
Cloud must have known that Burning
Star was head devil in that enterprise,
though Chaska was the victim. I
take much comfort in the fact that it
was I who sent young Dean and his
troop round by way of the Laramie.
Folsom and his people would have
been murdered to a man If hadn't,
and yet I hear that absurd old ass at
Emory put Dean in arrest for not
coming directly home. Pecksniff
should have been retired ten years
ago-for imbecility.

the mountains to the south two days
ago and courier has just galloped
out from Emory, inquiring for news
of Dean. It seems he was sent with .
big sum of currency for your quarter
master, and ordered to slip through
by way of Sweetwater, as Red Cloud
was known to be covering the direct
road. Somehow it leaked out before
he started, and gang of desperadoes
gathered to jump him at Canyon
Springs The storm jumped them, for
two of their dead and dozen horses
were rolled out on the fats. Dean
must have got through all right, for
Bat saw their trail fifteen miles above
US. Of course. he'll have to make
night marches; but, unless Red Cloud
gets wind of his coming and corrals
him, he should reach you almost as
soon as this. Michel, the bearer, has

copies are here. Good luck, old man,

This was all. hut more than enough.
Riding night and day in wide detour,
Michel had made his way to the late
ly beleaguered spot, and what he
brought was joyous news, indeed.
Within the coming week the post
would have no more to fear. Within .
day or two the contractors then,
would have their money, and that
would tap the suffers stores and Joy
would reign supreme. Enviously the
soldiers eyed the artisans. Not for
weeks could their paymaster be looked
for, while the funds for the civilians
might reach them on the morrow,
provided Red Cloud did not interfere.
He couldn't and wouldn't, said the
commander, because he and his braves
were all off to the southeast, hunting
buffalo. He could and might, said

The Pleasant Pastime OF a Wealthy
Merchant Who Went
Insane.

A Boston merchant of great wealth
believing that certain symptoms indi'
Gated that he would become insane,
consulted a specialist, and under his
advice became an inmate of a private
asylum. For IL years his recreation
was the piling up of gold coins and then
knocking them over, says Youths Com
panion. At times he washed his hands
in gold eagles and half eagles. At the
end of the long seclusion he returned
to his counting-room and in IL months
confirmed the thoroughness of his re-
covery by making 100000. He died OF
yellow fever in Cuba, where he had
gone to look after his sugar planta-
ton.
A similar passion for handling gold
coin is now and then exhibited by men
who suddenly become rich. George Au-
gustus Sala, in his 'Life and Adven-
lures" tells of London journalist who
speculated in railroad stocks. His first
venture netted him $4,000. Drawing it
in gold, he repaired to a hotel, emptied
the bags of gold in the bed and went
to sleep literally in the sands of Pac-
tolus. The man was so crazed by his
good fortune that he felt pleasure in
reveling in a golden bath.
