EARrH.s BLOSSOMS.

oh. you husbands. when you grurnble at
your wife's dressmaker's bill.
And about a costly bonnet fret and
stew.
Did you ever stop to reason how this
world would take chill
If your pretty wife and daughter dressed
like you?
With your Somber black cravat. and your
ugly, shiny hat,
And your coat, a perfect antidote for
mirth,
You are practical enough, like the kitchen
garden stuff,
But the women are the roses of the
earth.
When a crowd of men are gathered, it's a
sad and solemn show
It's e living, breathing spectacle Of
gloom;
Every single fellows garments might be
patterned from crow
That had pecked about an undertaker's
tomb:
But you let a woman go to that gather
ing of woe
And you will see a sight that's cheap
at any price,
For 'I.lid the funeral band, blithe and ra-
diant, she'll stand
Like flashing, cleaning bird Of para
disc.
So we mustn't growl and grumble. though
the bills be what they please
For the satins and the other precious
stuffs,
And be happy though our trousers do
get baggy at the knees,
And we often are obliged to trim our
cuffs.
Though we labor every day SO that
they may be as gay
When we see 'em, don't we get our
moneys worth?
Though they do come rather high. we
must have 'em, you and I,
For the women are the roses OF the
earth.
Good Roads.

The Cloth of Ceremony.

One of the Tibetans was dressed in
white, one in black, with square-c1t
caps, Tartar physiognomy, very dark
compilations, and long pigtails, and
were well known to our people.
They approached us making many po-
lite bows, and, taking off their caps,
presented the cloth of ceremony, as
was becoming from interiors to supe
riors. This is form which is uni
versal in Thibet, and extends into
China. though I do not remember ever
to have heard an explanation of the
custom. The cloth we received was of
cotton, badly woven, but of fine tex
ture, about the size of a small hand
kerchief, but SO dirty as to show that
it had frequently performed similar
Offices of civility before. The more.
wealthy classes employ silk instead Of
cotton cloths, the legend, "Om name
padme hum" being commonly woven
in damask at each end. The sale of
these cloths of ceremony, L was given
to understand, constituted govern
ment monopoly in this part of Thibet.

the possible fate of those little
garrisons, with their helpless charge
of women and children, away up
in the heart of the Sioux country. But
at Laramie and Frayne and Emory, the
nearest frontier posts; at Cheyenne.
Omaha and Gate City the anxiety was
great. When John Folsom said the In
dams meant war of determination
people west of the Missouri said:
Withdraw those garrisons while
there is yet time, or else send five
thousand troops to help them" But
people east of the Missouri said: 'Who
the devil is John Folsom? What does
he know about it? Here's what the In
dian agent says, and that's enough"
and people east of the Missouri being
vastly in the majority, neither were
the garrisons relieved nor the reen-
forcements sent. What was worse.
John Folsom's urgent advice that they
discontinue at once all work at War
rior Gap and send the troops and la
borers back to Reno was pooh-poohed.
1.-THE contracts have been let and
signed. The material is all on its way.
We can't back out now" said the Of
ficials. "Send runners to Red Cloud and
get him to talk. Promise him lot of

much any thing to be good and keep his
hands off little longer till we get that

likes
Such were the instructions given the
commissioners and interpreters hurried
through Gate City and Frayne, and on
up to Reno just within the limit fixed
by Folsom. Red Cloud and his chiefs
came in accordingly, arrayed in pomp,
paint and fnery, shook hands grimly
with the representatives of the Great
Father. critically scanned the prof
fered gifts, disdainfully rejected the

nothing but brand new breech-

be done to restrain his young men.
But they were 'spretty mad" he said,
and couldn't be relied upon to keep
the peace unless sure of getting better
arms and ammunition to help them
break it next time. It was only tenn
porting. It was only encouraging the
veteran war chief in his visions of pow
er and control. The commissioners
came back beaming. 'sEvery thing salts

For three months that hard-worked
troop had been afield, and the time
had passed and gone when its young
first lieutenant had hoped for leave
to go home to see the mother and Jess.
His captain was still ailing and unfit
for duty in saddle. He could not and
time. and yet at the very moment when
he was most earnestly and faithfully
doing his whole duty at the front,
SANDER was busy with his name long
miles at the rear.
Something was amiss with Burleigh,
said his cronies at Gate City. He had
come hurrying back from the hills,
had spent a day in his Office and not
cent at the club, had taken the night
express unbeknown to anybody but
his chief clerk, and gone hurrying
eastward. It was time when his
services were needed at the depot, too.
Supplies, stores, all manner of MAJ
terial were being freighted from Gate
City over the range to the Platte and
beyond, yet he had wired for authority
to hasten to Chicago on urgent per-
sonal affairs, got it and disappeared.
Ayoung regimental quartermaster was
ordered in from Emory to take charge
of shipments and sign invoices during
Rurleigh's temporary absence, and the
only other officer whom Burleigh had
seen and talked with before his start
was the venerable post commander.
One after another the few cavalry
troops (companies) on duty at Emory
had been sent afield until now only
one was left, and three days after Bur-
leigh started there came dispatch
from department headquarters direct
ing the sending of that one to Frayne
at once. Capt. Brooks troop, owing
to the continued illness of it's COM
drawn and sent back to Emory to re-
place it.
Marshall Dean did not know whether
to be glad or sorry. Soldier from top
to toe, he was keenly enjoying the
command of his troop. He gloried in
mountain scouting, and was in his ele-
ment when astride a spirited horse.
Then, too, the air was throbbing with
rumors of Indian depredations along
the northward trails, and everything
pointed to serious outbreak any mo-
ment, and when it came he longed to
be on hand to take his share and win
his name, for with such a troop his
chances were better for honors and
distinctions than those of any young
st er he knew. Therefore he longed to
keep afeld. On the other hand, the
visit paid by Jessie's school friend,
little ''Pappoose" Folsom, was to be
returned in kind. John Folsom had
begged and their mother had consent
ed that after week at home Jess
should accompany her beloved friend
on visit to her far western home.
They would be escorted as far as Oma-
ha, and there Folsom himself would
meet them. His handsome house was
ready, and, so said friends who had
been invited to the housewarming
particularly well stocked as to larder
and cellar. There was just one thing
on which Gate City gossips were en-
abled to dilate that was not entirely
satisfactory to Folsom's friends, and
that was the new presiding goddess
of the establishment.
