"The most finished orator in the

the eight years of his congressional
career he has made two speeches. Yet

on account of them is national. One
was half an hour in length. 1t was
a witty and eloquent criticism OF EN-
bassador Bayard, at the time Bayard
was making himself unpopular by his
pro- English remarks at London din

minutes long and was spoken after the

silent in his place for one full term be-

WANT PALEFACE HUSBANDS,
Inducements Temporarily offered By
the Malungeons Indians.

Inducements Temporarily offered By
the Malungeons Indians.
An edict has been issued by the Ma
dungeons Indians, who live In the
mountains Of Hancock county, Tenn,
GO or more miles from Middlesboro,
giving the maidens of the tribe the
right to choose their husbands from
the palefaces. Formerly this was a
violation Of one of the sacred laws Of
the tribe, and the girl that married a
white man was banished from Indian
society. lsut now the chief men have
decided that the daughters Of the tribe
should secure paleface husbands, and
as an inducement they are offering to
every white man who will take an In
dian wife from so to 100 acres Of noun
tain land. The number of acres Of
course depends on the quality of the
husband, and the man who comes well
recommended will get better wife
and better farm than the man who
does not.
But the Malungeons only want the
best Of whites, and hoboes need not
apply. The applicant must be honest
and industrious and of good character.
He must also give a solemn promise
that he will forever eschew the daugh-
ters of the paleface nation, which, in
effect, Is that he will love and protect
his Indian wife as faithfully as he
would one of his own race.
The Malungeons made this offer be-
cause they came to the conclusion that
their race was doomed and that the
only way to save it was by amalgama-
ton. Continuous intermarriage among
the Indians is resulting in inferior
progeny. After few years, 1t is said,
the Malungeons will return to their
old law of marriages only among their
own race.
The Malungeons number about 150.
They are the last of q once numerous
and powerful race older than Tennes-
see itself. A tradition among them is
that they are descendants of colony
of Portuguese. who amalgamated with
the Cherokee Indians hundreds of years
ago. Another legend is that they are
descendants of the Lost Colony Of
Roanoke and the redskins. The Lost
Colony of Roanoke was composed Of
English settlers, who made their home
on the eastern shore of Virginia. The
Malungeons are thrifty farmers and
honest and upright as a general rule.
They are brown skinned and black
haired and have regular features.-Cin-

Now that we are all thinking of he
roes it is interesting to note that heroes
are sometimes very costly luxuries
though the heroism of the c. |. V. has
been very cheaply purchased. The
Duke of Marlborough cost the country
something like round million of mon
ey in cash and palaces. In 1907 pen
sion of $4,000 year was granted to the
duke and was paid to his successors
till II years ago, when it was COM
muted for f107, ,7S0. Nelson's heroism
has been paid for at about the same
rate. Up to now the hero of Trafalgar
has cost England f5S0000 in pensions
and grants, and as there is $4,000 a
year waiting for all the Lord Nelson's
forever and ever the Nelson bill will
run up to half million for every CEN
tury the title lasts. Up to now the
Duke of Wellington has cost the nation
more in hard cash than Nelson, over
three-quarters of million having been
paid to him and his descendants, but
as the pension was limited to two gen.
erations the present duke is the last Of
his line who will profit by his ances-
tors heroism.-London Chronicle.

The jury which made the awards in
the wine departments of the Paris
exposition had 10000 brands of wine
to taste. 1t would seem that such n
task would be enough to paralyze the
nerves of every mans palate and that,
moreover. the wine tasters would have
some difficulty In getting home after
their days work. These useful men,
bers of a reputable profession, how
ever, know their business far too well
to be led into any mistakes of that
kind 1t Is estimated that not quart
of wine was swallowed by the entire
committee while engaged In the test
ing. If they drank much, they would
soon lose their sense Of taste.
When testing wines, these men take
but small mouthful of the sample,
let it slip back to where the taste nerve
Is and then spit it out. After trying
three or four samples the faster will

A FREAK OF NATURE.
A Dam In Arizona Which Is Made of
Soda.

Probably few people ever heard Of a
soda dam, but such a freak of nature
really exists in an unfrequented part
of the great west. A. o. Wright of
the Indian service, who travels ex-
tensively through that section of the
country west of the Missouri river, in
speaking of strange things he has en-
countered in his tours alluded to the
soda dam. Asked what he meant by
soda dam, he said:
"In Box canyon, just above the hot
springs of the Jemez river, Arizona, Is
dam extending from one wall of the
gorge to the other. This dam is moth
Ing more or less than n massive wall
Of pure soda, rising to a height of 100
feet, and probably 600 feet from end
to end. Natures forces, of course,
started their work of construction
away back in the dim and distant
past, when deposits of soda contained
in the water thrown off by the springs
were made at the base of what has
since developed into one of the natural
wonders Of the west. Those deposits
rapidity.
Just ten years ago the JemeZ river
rose to an unprecedented height, and
under the abnormal pressure of the
torrent lower section of the dam
gave way, leaving breach in the wall
of soda about 20 feet high. When the
water subsded, the lake formed by the
,1n Ac
the upper so feet of the dam high
and dry.
Il passed through that section of
Arizona this last summer, and pur-
posely visited the soda dam | was
most astonished to see that the 20 foot
breach had been nearly filed in. The
soda from the springs had made fresh
deposits, and gradually patched up the
hole made in 1890. At the present rate
the breach will be entirely closed in
another year and the lake will assume
its former proportions.
previous to the break in the dam
the lake above was fully 600 feet wide
and extended up the canyon for at
least three-quarters of a mile. Sci
entists who have examined the dam
are of the opinion that it will never
attain a height much above 100 feet,
for the deposits in the water seem to
sink in that great depth before the
brink is reached. AS they fall, how
ever, they will tend to strengthen the
base of the dam and will gradually
decrease the depth of the lake Mt its
lower end. d."-Washington Star.

Packing Apples For Export.

"The Canadians are far ahead of us
in the matter of packing fruit for ex-
port" says Il business man quoted by
the Kennebec (Me) Journal, "and
consequently they have less trouble
in disposing of the fruit. Look at our
present method of shipping apples. An
old flour barrel, dingy and dirty on the
outside and white with flour on the in
side, is the usual way our apples are
packed for the foreign market. AS the
fruit shrinks they become loose In the
barrel, and the rolling of the ship or
jarring of the cars causes them to be
bruised and distigured. By the time
they reach the buyer they are badly
damaged, or at least present an un-
slightly appearance to the eye. We can
never build up European trade until
this matter is remedied."
