NOIiN and BUFFALO
How the Llttr Turad Hunter and
Chased the Red Man

a retired officer of the Northwest
mounted police who took part in Mis-
souri, buffalo run forty yC.rs ago de-,
scribes the impression at the time as,
of an earthquake. The galloping.
horses, the rocking mass of fleeing buf-'
falo, the rumbling and quaking of the
ground under the thunderous pound
ing, were all like a violent earthquake.
The same gentleman tells how he once
saw wounded buffalo turn on an In
dian hunter. The mans horse took.
fright Instead of darting sideways toi
give him chance to send last finish-l
ing shot home the horse became wildly
unmanageable and fed. The buffalo
pursued. OF they rushed, rider and
buffalo, the Indian craning over his
horses neck, the horse blown and
tagged and unable to gain one pace
ahead of the buffalo, the great angry
beast covered with foam, with eyes
like fire, pounding and pounding closer
and closer to the horse till rider and
buffalo disappeared over the horizon.
"To this day I have wondered what
became of that Indian" said the Off
Ger, ''for the horse was losing and the
buffalo gaining when they went behind
the bluff" This incident illustrates a
trait seldom found in wild animals, a
persistent yindictiveness.-A. G. Laut

NEW WSPAPER OPINION
Carrie and Elijah


From the Tacoma Ledger.
For a long time the opinion has pre-
vailed that Carrie Nation needed the
shelter of a lunatic asylum. It was
hardly supposed that she would seek
this herself. However. the woman has
joined Dowie. head keeper of the big
gest collection of crazy people that
ever performed under one roof. There
could not have been a more satisfac-
tory end to her career. Under the
shadow OF the greatness of Dowie she
will be eclipsed and soon forgotten.
That she has accepted the faith of this
bewhiskered old fakir is clear proof
that she is OF unsound mind, a theory
on which she should long ago have
been removed from the sphere Of ac-
tivity.
Mrs. Nation is not the type OF luna
tic who deserves any pity. She has
the form of mania which is nothing
more than an exaggerated egotism- For
once Dowie is entitled to the thanks OF
the public. If he gather into his net all
the cranks. the wicked world outside
the fold would be better off while the
average intelligence Of his disciples
would not be lowered.

political opinions may be, it is but just
and fair to award credit TO the man
who is steadfast enough to maintain
his honest convictions in the face of
promises which look to the satisfaction
Of personal ambitions and political
preferment: and which. If rejected
must necessarily thwart the ambition
of the individual by the withdrawal OF
political support. Dr. Ball has under
gone such test OF his fidelity to prin-
ciple and has unflinchingly withstood
the ordeal.
A combination between DR.. Ball and
Mr.. Addicks would give the former a
probable chance of being returned as a
member of Congress; the rejection OF
the terms for the union of the Republi-
can forces precludes any present pos
sibility of the reelection of the Doctor
If the entire Regular Republican or
ganization would be as uncompromis-
ing in its attitude towards Addlcksism
as DR.. Ball has recently been. it would
be but a very little while when Ad-
dicks would be driven from the politi-
cal field of Delaware, and an Opportu-
nifty afforded the Republicans Of the
State for conducting their campaigns
in manner more nearly approaching
the desires and the wishes of the peo-
pie. But so long as there exist in Regu-
lar Republican ranks persons who are
willing TO deal and dicker with Ad
dicks. just so long will his gasship con-
tinue TO exercise power and control DR..
Ball has taken a step. which If follow
ed by those other Regular Republicans
who profess such decided opposition to
Addicks. will surely cause the head of
the Union forces to lose his power and
result in his overthrow. Concessions
heretofore made by the Regulars to the
Addicks organization has done as much
as anything else to aid Mr.. Addicks in
his political aspirations. DR.. Ball has
set wise example for the organi-
zation of which he is a member. Tho
principle which he enunciates is no
compromise, no concession. II will be
n benefit not only to the Regulars, but
to THE people OF the whole State, If the
friends of DR. Ball will follow the eX-
ample which he has set for them and
which is the only line of conduct which
they can consistently follow

General chaHee
Boston Herald.

From the Boston Herald.
The probability noted by one Of the
Washington correspondents in the
Herald. that General Chaffee will soon
succeed General Miles as Lieutenant
General, IL he is not Immediately called
to the place on General Miles with
drawal, will. we think. be received
with satisfaction by the people general
ly. General Chaffee is not, like Cen
eral Corbin. one OF those Generals who
busy themselves in politics or intrigue
for positions for themselves and those
in whom they are interested. He will
be an improvement over General Cor
bin for the place, therefore. But Gen
leral Chanee has other points to
recommend him besides negative and
alternative ones. He is a decidedly
able officer. who has won distinction
Iby his services in the recent military
situation in China that adds TO an al.
ready superior reputation. His mos
recent action. also in disappearing tn,

manent abode, and life goes on in the
same old way.
Sometimes they discuss politics, but
usually this subject is handled ginger
ly, and often there is tacit agree
ment that it shall be tabooed altogether.
But we have known instances where in
a strenuous campaign the rule has been
broken. and the orators have plunged
into the heat of campaign argument;
the result has been that the Eden OF
peace has been deserted; the goods
boxes stand empty, appealing and elo-
quent, but their old tenants come not.
But after a time the election passes,
the wave of strife has subsided and
some fine morning one genial old phi
losopher hesitates, the old box in the
shade invites him, he pauses and sits.
After a time. as though obeying the
law of gravity another comes to keep
him company, and soon there is a
quorum, and discussion proceeds as
though it f5d never been interrupted.
The Knights OF the goods-box are in
session; let us leave them in peace.

Of the south. 1t is not a tropical plant,
however, and except on mountain sides

Labrador and British Columbia to the,
pine woods of the southern states and
on the high lands of Mexico and the
Andes. The hardy plant, with its tiny
scarlet berry, may be said to girdle the
earth on the line of the polar circle and
several hundred miles southwark, ex-
cept that it is not found in the basin OF
the river Amur, in Siberia.

Altar of Roses.

In trade the rose is very valuable, as
the affairs Of India and Persia sell at
a very high price and there are large
districts Of rose gardens in which men
and women are employed, the harvest
months being March and April In
Turkey also rose farming is largely
carried on, and very fine altar is got
from the rose grown in Kashmlr.
Even rosewater is a luxury which is
by no means to be despised as to price.
but the altar of roses is immensely
costly, and it takes an enormous num-
Der of flowers 70 distil even a few
drops.
The altar is said to have been first
discovered by the favorite wife Of
Jehan Jeer, through whose garden ran
a canal Of rosewater, on the surface of
which the begun found a few drops
of the precious altar or oil floating.

Among all people the sucking of the
wound has ever been considered the
most effective remedy of immediate
application for snake bites In Africa
a cupping instrument is employed In
emergencies Of the kind to draw out
the poisoned blood. The ancients fol-
lowed the same methods, and when
Cato made his famous expedition
through the serpent infested African
deserts he employed many savage
snake charmers, called "psylli" to fol-
low the army. They performed many
mysterious rites over men who were
bitten, but the efficacy of their treat
ment appears to have consisted in suck

THE EDITOR, ADDIcKs

We have been watching the career
of Addicks, the editor, with consider
ablo interest to see whether he would
develop in his new line of work the
Same qualities which have made him
conspicuous in other fields. Well, it
is the same old Addicks. AS long as
he was satisfied to fill the office of
financial hacker of the paper, he could
not be held responsible for all OF its
vagaries, but in placing his name at
tho head of the column as editor, we
aro bound to assume that the utter
ances are the work of his pen, OF that
they have his sanction.
He has been in his new field little
over a week. and IL is sufficient time
for us to form an idea OF the new
editor. The first thing that strikes us
Is his taste. In his editorials he is
constantly eulogizing himself and de-
nouncing all those who fail to bow
down and worship him. Addicks, the
editor. writes long articles commend
ing Addicks the senatorial candidate.
In anyone else, this would be called
vulgar and an exhibition of taste that
would do credit to a Sussex porker
Tho second quality that has shown
onspicuously is a most unfortunate
habit of trifing with the truth. We
were always of the opinion that the
manner in which the sun could in
ent falsehoods. and stick to them
howed rare ingenuity and exoeptiona
taying qualities. But we must admi
