proof of their degradation and con-
temptibleness. For the Paints, like
the Navahos, do not eat fish, and re-
gard all fsh-eaters with loathing and
horror. Consequently they came to
speak of these renegades as friends
and neighbors of the Achee-Mohaves,
achee meaning fish. The white man,
hearing this name, twisted it into
Cheuchuevi, hence the new tribe of
Indians
Though small in number, the two
bands not counting more than be-
tween 200 and 300 souls, they are a
much superior people to the Mohaves.
In this l was much and agreeably sur
prised, for, contrary to the Mohaves,
they have had nothing done for them
by the United States government. The
Mohaves have large reservation, and
also two fine schools for their chill

DRAWS LINE AT SNAKES.
N. Dole Wants Uncle Sam to Keep
Serpents Ont of the Island
of Hawaii.

J.D. Dole, of Hawaii, a kinsman OF
Gov. Dole, wants the United States
government to keep snakes out of
Hawaii. He wants to prevent them
from landing. There is none on the
islands now.
Mr.. Dole is tall, young man, and
represents large commercial inter-
ests in the islands. He called on
Secretary of Agriculture Wilson and
told him his trouble and misgivings
about the introduction of snakes.
"Are you another St. Patrick?'
asked Secretary Wilson, as Mr.. Dole
stated his errand.
"No. but 1 want President Roose-
velt to act in the capacity of St.
Patrick as far as our islands are con-
cerned," replied Mr.. Dole. There
are no snakes in the Hawaiian is
lands. but we are fearful they will
he introduced there. Under the mon
archical and republican governments
circuses were not allowed to bring
snakes to the islands. and vessels

Fort Mohave, both on the Colorado
river. They receive considerable ra-
tions, too, in the shape of beef and
-four, and being thus under the direct
influence of the Indian department,
one would naturally expect them to be
nearer to civilization than their neigh
bors, who have no school, no rations,
no influence to help them. Yet the re-
verse is the case. In talking this over
with some of the leading Cheuehuevis
they expressed the idea very clearly
that they saw the advantage to them
selves of being "all same white man."
so, voluntarily, they adopted his dress
and sought, as far as they could, to
walk in his ways.

Sand when that period is over?'

She accompanied him to the door
after helping him on with his coat.
The cool air of the night seemed gra te-
full to both, and there was little pause
in his leave taking.
On his way down the steps he halted
and said, hat in hand, "You will let me
know of-of-the arrangements?
Every soon" She ceased suddenly
and he looked down, to see messen-
ger boy leaning his bicycle against the
curb. He looked up again and she mo-
toned to him. He obeyed and took the
message. When he had opened it and
read it she met his eyes with chilled
inquiry: SIS it for you or me?"
1T is for you" he replied, coldly.

compared the face with that he had
known before. The mouth had became
passively heavy, and the chin was not
SO pure in contour. The forehead and
eyes alone retained the old expression,
"He was not cynical" he ventured, "but
he was (shall we say?) brutal"
She caught her breath and looked
askance at him. She recognized her
own thought. GAIL men are brutal"
she continued, as if she had said this
herself, except the man one loves"
"You did not love him?"
"You knew him almost as well az l. -
she whispered.
There was a long interval of silence
and she let go his arm. Il under
stand" he affirmed, "you did not love
him"
When they reached her door she
went slowly up the steps. The man
halted below and seemed in state of
indecision. "Will you come in little
while?" she asked, coldly.
He went up then and opened the door
for her. The hall was dimly lit and he
had some difficulty in finding the coat
rack.
She noticed it, and directed him.
"You never call here" she explained.

not want to have your happiness thrust

She made no response, but walked
before him into the sitting room. They
sat down by the fire, now almost dead,
and there was dreary silence. He
broke it by slight movement of his
chair, and she looked around at him.

the main question. What are you going
to do?"
II am undecided"
Perhaps" he suggested, "your

Her eyes fell, and she drew her cape
about her shoulders as she spoke. my

"He was BRUTE" he explained as if
to himself.
"Itwas nothe that killed Them" she
retorted. mo memory dies except by

firmly.

Not brutal she interrupted, quick

II have paid for that" he continued
without noting her exclamation, "for

The noise of the busy avenues drifted
in and they both listened apparently.
Presently she arose and stirred the
fire into feeble fame. He rose, too,
and bent over beside her. "What are
you going to doc" he asked steadily.
She made no reply; she did not look
around; but he felt her hand slip into |
his own.

under her breath. "It was hope made

Saint JUSTIN. Body Found

1t is announced from Vincenza.
Italy, that while some boys were
playing inside the parish church at
Monticello they found an iron chest.
the lid of which they managed to re-
move. Inside the chest was corpse
remarkably well preserved, clothed
in the vestments of bishop. The
bishop of Vincenza sent commits
sion to investigate the matter. The
commission found some documents
in the chest which proved that the
body was that of Saint Justin, who
died $50 years after Christ. The re.
mains were inferred with much
solemnity and great excitement now
prevails in the locality, owing to
the rumors of many miracles having
been performed.

The PROFESSORS BLUNDER.
Man OF Learning Has an Exciting Ex.
perience After m Evening of
Intellectual Enjoyment,
The members of learned society i,

The members of learned society in
- had been INDUCING in birthday
festivities the other evening, and when
dinner and the subsequent enjoyments
were over Prof. Dash, who had been
charming the company with delight
full flow of intellectual discourse, start
ed off to trudge the hali-mile or SO to
his home, relates Tid-Bits.
1t is vain to inquire into the real
causes of the sensations that speedily
overlook him. They may have been
found in the excitement produced by
the abstruse discussion in which he had
been engaged; possibly in his second
cigar; at any rate, something had
caused him to feel trif1e feverish, so,
approaching an electric light post, he
pressed his massive brow against the
cool iron.
Thus he stood for few moments.
Then he buttoned up his overcoat pre-
paratory to proceeding on his way
home, the night being chilly; but, to his
horror, when he attempted to leave
the friendly post he found himself un-
able to move. A brain such as the pro-
fessor's works quickly, and the reason
for his detention soon seemed clear.
Evidently the current which fed tho
lamp above had become diverted from
its course and was passing through his
body, welding him to the post in the
process. Death, CHASTITY and horrible,
stared him in the face. Gradually his
backbone would become dissolved tn
jelly, and while the awful process was
going on he must stand there helpless
as butterfly pinned in specimen
case.
In his terror he gave vent to his feel
ings in a mighty yell, when up came
a policeman, who, shaking with laugh
ter, heard his explanation, and then
unfastened his overcoat from the post,
round which he had buttoned it!

Judgment DUCK OF heaven was dotted
out for ever, clean page was turned
for him, and at its head was written
the name of Jesus, and with that
name written on the fleshy tables of
his heart, that man had an open
sesame to Heaven and its glories. A
captive was delivered from the prison
house of sin and the power of Satan.
The crowd that day saw and realized
only the healing, and since that day
the majority of those who have read
the record of this wonderful incident
have marveled at the raising to his
feet Of the paralytic, and have passed
lightly over the cleansing from sin of
this man, and thus they have lost the
very heart Of the matter and its deep
est lesson. 1t has come to be known
as the healing of the man sickwith the
palsy, when it ought to be entitled,
The miracle of the cleansing from sin
of the man sick of the palsy.
A palsied soul is more awful and
deadly condition than palsied body.
The sum of the years Of this life are
soon passed, and the palsied body is
left behind, but the palsied soul, insen-
safe from sin and selfishness, passes
on beyond the grave, into the presence
Of the One who could have given life,
but where the potency Of the cross to
that soul is then lost forever, for che
that believeth not is condemned al
ready, because he hath not believed in
the name of the only begotten Son of
God"

prejudice ana precOncelved notions,
but you can see Jesus if you only
will.
AS the swinging couch was lowered
into the midst of that astonished
and dignified company, Jesus looked
up and, instead of a rebuke which
the JEWISH teachers would have had
Him deliver, His encouraging smile
greets the men standing upon the
roof, and Scripture declares that He
saw their faith. How quick He is to
catch the faintest heart throb of
faith towards Him. The tip of the
woman's finger on the hem of His
garment as He passed along the
highway was enough to obtain from
Him the blessing sought.
And seeing their faith He turned
His gaze upon the psor paralytic now
lying before Him. thanks to their
faithfulness, and said unto him,
"Man, thy sins are forgiven thee"
All, how these words of Jesus throw
new light into the picture Of this
mans need, and we realize that He
sees not as man seeth. The strain
ing eyes of the pressing throng in
the courtyard and the doorway see
only poor pasalytic needing heai-
ing. Jesus looks deeper and search
ing the depths of the human heart
ices sin there and need OF cleansing.

in which the friars had advanced money
