An availing Rain Penance.

No country subject to drought is
without its own peculiar method Of
suppicating for rain. That in Kumaon,
northern India. is not the least curious
of them.
In a country where the population
is almost entirely dependent upon grain
as means of subsistence drought
means famine and starvation. During
a drought in Kumaon Hindoo fakir
imposed a penance on himself and was
suspended by his feet from wooden
beam. In this position he was swung
back and forth for a considerable time
by means of rope attached to his
body and pulled by fellow fakir

pected reward. for the chronicler sadly
related that no rain fell until weeks
after.

THE SUMMER GIRL

July 1-We're going to escape the
horrible racket of the Fourth. Isn't
it just lovely that papa is a congress
man? Otherwise we would have to
buy tickets.
July 2-Well, mamma and l have
packed the trunks.
July 5-We have overhauled papa s
clothes. His bathing suit was torn
and papa told mamma to collect the
rent. It's awful to be congressman
and spring puns at the same time.
July 4-We're off. We left last
night. Philadelphia is fast town,
but we had to lay over here until the
Atlantic City train that congressional
passes are good on gets ready to take
us to the shore.
July Shes a lovely fellow, but
my goodness, such table manners. He
actually ate his noodle soup with a
fork.
July 6-Last night 1 danced with
him and he stepped on my train. You
think when he stepped on my train he
was going somewhere, wouldn't YOU?
But couldn't make him. He stuck to
me all evening worse than a scandal

Covering Books.

To cover paper bound books take two
pieces of cardboard a tiny bit larger
than book. Paste fly leaves at front
and back to cardboard, which of course
is outside Then take strip of strong
cotton cloth; paste it down back of
book; have it wide, so it will cover
about one inch Of each piece Of card
board, thereby joining the two pieces
together. Now put cover of brown
paper over all. pasting securely, and
your decorated cover goes over this.
The books may be covered with deco
rated silk, pique or duck if you paint
or embroider. but the simplest way is
to cover with tissue paper (nOt crape).
Paste pretty card on the front and
after cutting title and authors name
from old cover arrange them prettily
on the new one.

The Duke of Alva, one of the most
eminent soldiers of the sixteenth CEN

eventful career lost battle. The
archbishop Of Cologne was struck by
his effort to avoid a conflict, having on
one occasion urged him to engage the

The Duke Of Marlborough fought
several battles against the most ex-
perienced generals in Europe and was
never once defeated.
The famous Russian general Suva.
rolf was another commander destined

Switzerland. through Germany, into
Russia.
The Duke of Wellington throughout
his brilliant campaigns. both in India

The wig is only worn by English
barristers to give them a stern. judi.

that it fails in this respect The Gus.
tom was originated by French judge
in the seventeenth century, when. hap
pening to don marquis wig one day,
he found it gave him such a stern and
dignified appearance that he decided
to get one for himself and wear it at
all times in court. This he did, and
the result was so satisfactory from
legal point of view that not only
judges, but barristers also, took up the
custom throughout Europe.

Property Found on Criminals.


"The question as to what final dis
position is made of money and jewelry
found in the possession of criminals
was frequently asked me when l was
on the force two years ago." said an
ex-captain of the New York police
force. LAS a rule, everything found
upon an arrested criminal which Obvi-
ously is not his lawful property is held
In trust. as it were, by the police for
possible claimants. If no claimants
turn up the property is returned to the
criminal on being released from his
term Of Imprisonment, provided the
commissioner of police is perfectly sat
isfed that the property actually does
belong to him.
"1f the commissioner has REASONS to
think otherwise, however, the articles,
often valuable, are held indefinitely or
until it is certain that they will never
be claimed by their rightful owners,
when the stuff is finally disposed Of
and the proceeds handed over to bene-
fit one or another of the various police
funds.
"There are certain things however
which the police never return to those
on whom they have been found, such
as burglarizing tools, firearms, gam
bling devices, begging letters-any-
thing, in fact, that might be used by
criminals again in their nefarious oc-

Sioux Indians Cause Trouble.

Reports received from the scene of
Saturday evenings battle between a
band of twenty-five Sioux Indians
under Eagle Feather, an educated In
dian and graduate of the Carlisle In
dian school, says a special to the Butte
Miner from Newcastle, Wyo., confirms
the early stories of the conflict, and it
now appears that the battle was more
bloody than at first supposed AMI also
that the situation is more grave than
early reports Indicated.
Sheriff w. H. Miller, of Newcastle.
who lead the officers against the In
dians, was killed; also Deputy Sheriff
Falkenburg, wolf hunter of Weston
county.
Black Kettle, notorious Sioux dis
turber, and five others were killed.
Eagle Feather and nine others were
seriously wounded.
The bodies of Miller and Falken-
burg, two wounded Indians and pris-
oners reached Newcastle this forenoon,
when the full details of the battle on
Little Tightening creek were secured.
Sheriff Miller and his deputies had
been in pursuit of the Indians for ten
days. A portion of the band was cap
tured a week ago and sent to New
castle, but the main band was rein
forced by others hunting wild game in
the Cheyenne river country, and kept
out of reach of the sheriff and his dep
uties until Saturday.
Just as night was falling Sheriff
Miller and his twelve deputies, six of
them ranchmen picked up on the way,
overlook the Indians near the Beavers
dam on Lightning creek. The war
riors had stopped for the night in a
tract of bad lands and evidently were
expecting trouble.
Inspired by the lead of Eagle
Feather and Black Kettle, notorious
Sioux warrior, they opened fire and in
the gathering darkness a pitched bat
tie ensued. The Indians fired RAPIDLY
but wildly, the whitemen deliberately
and with steady aim. The battle de-
veloped into a skirmish, the combat
ants firing from tufts of grass, from
gullies and from slightest depression
in the ground For an hour the shots
followed one another closely, spurts of
flame coming through the darkness
whoops of the Indians and the chant
ing death song of the wounded, added
Weiredness to the scene.

Missed a Train That Was a Day Late,

When the Switz City division of the
Illinois Central was built it was known
as the Indiana and Illinois Southern.
1t was a narrow gauge road, the road
bed was bad, the engines and cars
were built on a miniature scale, and,
while there was schedule, had a train
been on time the fact would have been
regarded as a miracle. The road was
known as the ''Try- Weakly"
On one occasion Josiah Mcconnell
desired to go to Switz City from Sulli-
van. but missed the train by minute
or two. The clock at the station show
ed that the train had left Sullivan five
minutes ahead of time, and Mcconnell
sued the railroad company for $1,000
damages. On trial of the case it
was proved beyond doubt that the
train Mcconnell missed should have
gone the day before and was really
twenty-three hours and fifty-five min
utes late.-Indianapolis News.
