knight of the ferrule, who for 27
years acted as pedagogue to this
tiny hamlet? What good had he
done in his world? Had he realized
his life's ambition? Into many of
the congregation now worshiping
yonder he must have driven the three
RS, possibly with the assistance of
the faithful ferrule aforesaid, yet
how many of them gave thought to
his memory! In this case the asser-
tion that he crested from his labors"
was a trifie ambiguous. Consigning

looking at it, when l heard step
on the gravel-path behind me, and
turning round, / found myself stand
ing face to face with Miss Kitwater.
To use the conventional phrase,
church had "come out" and the con-
gregation was even now making it's
way down the broad avenue towards
the high-road.
"How do you do, Mr.. Fairfax?" said
Miss Kitwater, giving me her hand
as she spoke. 'It is kind indeed of
you to come down. L hope you have
good news for us?"
81 am inclined to consider it good
news myself" I said. 81 hope you
will think so too"
She did not question me further
about it then, but, asking me to ex-
cuse her for moment, stepped over
the little plot of ground where her
dear ones lay, and plucked some of
the dead leaves from the flowers
that grew upon it. TO my thinking
she was just what an honest English
girl should be; straightforward and
gentle, looking the whole world in

scrapers are the latest evolution.
On the top or near by these houses,
or "kans," as they call them, there il
generally to be found a rude wicker
circular construction, called su-quin.
This is a kind Of granary or storehouse
in which corn, beans, peas and other
edibles are kept. It's chief use, how
ever, is for the mesquite bean, of which
their drink is made. There are two
kinds of mesquites, one which has
pod and beans somewhat similar to
our string beans, the other a very pc
culiar fruit in the shape of bundle
of small vegetable screws.
Both kinds of mesquite beans are
put into wooden mortar, called
mar-r. Squatted down in front of it,
the woman takes the Shu-wa, or pes
tie, in both hands and pounds away
until the 'o-pi, or beans, are pretty
well mashed. Then they are soaked
in water for several hours, and the
liquor drained off is their chief ma
tive drink. it has peculiar, half
sweet, half-salty flavor, which, how
ever, they seem to relish very
highly.
The men are great hunters, deer,
and the lesser game, such as rabbits,
quail, squirrels, etc, abounding in
the mountains and foothills near
their homes. The quails, beautiful
little creatures, are found on the
river banks in great numbers, as are
also ducks, geese, wild swans, etc.
When the time comes for corn
planting, however, every man of the
tribe has his ground in readiness,
and he plants his corn, beans,
melons, squash, chilli and other veg
etables, irrigating them when neces-
sary. Their method of planting corn
is peculiarly their own. \ space of
a quarter or half mile in length,
and so to 100 feet in width, is cleared
of willows. Then small basins or
bowls are made in the earth, about u
foot or a foot and half in diame-
ter. In the center of these bowls,
the seed corn is planted. The whole
field is then surrounded with Will
lows and other brush, to keep out
the rabbits, and, to further prevent

MAKING THE WEDDING GRAB.

When I was weeping,
In my pain | said:
81 weary of my life--would were dead.
In silence sleeping,
Where troubles are no more. nor cares. nor
tears,
Nor visionary hopes, nor fears
Like dark-night shadows all around US
creeping
Would l were deadv'
Were death but sleep,
Small harm to wish into the grave to creep,
And no more weep;
But were death life,
Far truer life than that men live on earth;
Were death but birth
To life where cares, and tears, and toll, and
strife
No longer are,
But which the Just alone
with other Just may share
Could l still dare,
Whose days so little justice yet have
shown,
To seek an entrance through deaths golden
gate? ,-s : *
Nay! Rather for long season let me wait,
And with embroidery of love and prayer,
And holy deeds, and suffering, prepare
The wedding garment for the wedding
feast,
That be not the lowest or the least
In that great throng
Nor shamed the Royal Bridegroom's guests
to greet
Whose voices sweet
Catch up the angelic song
And Holy, Holy. Holy without end repeat.

ENTERPRISING TRIBE
The Chemehuevis Indians Have
Faith in Civilization.
Their Leading Men Believe That
What Is Good for White Men
Must Also lie beneficial
to Red Men.
Especial Arizona Letter.1

T COATED in two places on the
Colorado river, is to be found this
almost unknown tribe of the
North American Indians. One small
band is on the California side of the
river. near Fort Mohave, north of the
Needles, and the other is about rs
miles south of Needles and has small
ranches on both sides of the river.
Few people know anything about them
and strange stories are told as to their
origin and classification.
Last February | made trip down
the Colorado river in a boat, from
Needles to Yuma, and spent several
days with the Chenehuevis. | then
found out that they are not a separate
and distinct people. They are simply
renegade Paints, who, tired of living
in the sandy wastes of southern Ne
vada, where water was scarce and
food often more so, determined to
emigrate to a more favorable region.
They sent out some of their wisest and
best men as explorers to "spy out the
land" These men visited the Mohave
Indians on the Colorado river, and,
finding the two unoccupied regions in
the territory practically controlled
by the MohayeS. made an amicable ar
rangement with them, whereby they
were to live in peace and security as
their near neighbors on condition that
when called upon they were to assist
the Mohaves in war. For some time
they were called Paints, but the lead
ers of that people repudiated them.
They were not Paints. They had for
saken the land of their forefathers.
They had made friends with the hated
.'fish. eating Mohaves," and this was

At the regular annual meeting of the
Hawaiian Sugar Planters Association
held today, a statement of the Island
crop for 1901 and 1902 was presented by
the secretary, William o. Smith, show
ing the total yield to be 355, ST. tons.
OF this amount Hawaii produced 121,-
295; Oahu, 107,S70; Kauai, 1920, and
Maui. 56, 726 tons. Several of the larger
estates will increase their tonnage next
year. These include Hawaiian Com
mercial and Sugar Company, Hawaiian
Agricultural, Pioneer Mill, Waialua,
Oahu, Honolulu Sugar and McBryde.
All conditions now point most favorably
for one of the largest crops next year
ever produced in Hawaii.
The great bulk of the taxes has been
paid in and the bankers are now to be
found in the best of spirits. Assessor
Pratt reports some delinquencies but
this was expected to be the case. The
tightness in the money market which
has prevailed in Honolulu for so long
a period, is bound to change for the
better at once. Some of the money
paid into the Government will come
back to the banks in payments of loans
or Announcements made to the Govern
ment. Immediate prosecution of Gov
eminent improvements viii put consid-

DEATH LIST INCREASED.
At Least 1000 Persons Reported
Killed in Last Eruption of
Mont Pelee,

St. Thomas. D. w. T., Sept. 3.-Steam-
ers from the island of Martinique re-
port an appalling loss OF life as a re-
suit of an eruption of the Mont Pelee
volcano. The towns of Morne Rouge
and Ajoupa Bouillon on the east end
of the island were completely de-
stroyed and at least 1000 people per-
ished. The destruction of Morne
Rouge was SO complete that not sin
gle human being was left to tell the
awful story. Ajoupa Bouillon is in
ruins, but the loss Of life at that place
was not as great as at Morne Rouge.
About 200 persons were killed at Ajou-
pa Bouillon and over 400 injured,
many of whom will die.
Mont Pelee had been showing signs
of renewed activity for week, but
the subterranean rumblings and ex-
Plosions occasioned no alarm. as the
people had become accustomed to
them. Early Saturday morning a sud
den eruption occurred, which spread
terror throughout the island. A col
umn of fire shot up from the crater of
the volcano about taybreak. which
lighted the heavens for hundreds of
miles. A few minutes later this was
followed by an explosion. which sent
forth gigantic stream of scalding wa
ter and mud. Morne Rouge was over
whelmed in an instant and every soul
in the place persisted. Ajoupa Bouillon
was struck by the river of mud and
flying volcano stones and not a build
ing was left standing.
The sea became terribly agitated
when the eruption occurred and
short time afterward a tidal wave
swept the whole coast. LIE Carbet, q
village near the base of Mont Pelee.
was flooded and many of the inhab-
itants drowned. After the explosion
more than a mile of the east end of
the island sank into the sea.
The inha bitants of Martinique are
panic-stricken and cJamoring to leave
the island. They believe that the
whole island is doomed to destruction.
and they are appealing to the governor
to furnish them transportation to ad-
jacent islands,
