COLD WEATHER AND CRIME.
Influence of the Elements Upon the
Temper Of Men.

From the Kansas City Star.
1t was noticed in police court that the
cold wave had produced spasm of moral
ity in town. Only few men were held for
investigation and there had been but one
fight: in consequence. the docket was the
lightest in the memory of court officials.
The cold weather had kept people at home
and out Of mischief Here is a theme for
the philosopher-cold as the handmade of
morality. Pack the world in salt and Ice
and watch for the millennium. Shove the
planet little farther from the sun and be-
hold a Utopia.
and conduct do go hand In hand. Who
would want to see a Thanksgiving dinner
in August or celebrate the Fourth of July
In December? The late Representative
Cummings, when night editor of the New
York Sun, used to say that a gloomy. muggy
day was murder weather. 1t made men
feel surly and when they got to drinking
they were apt to fight. year or two ago
the annals of the American Academy of
Political and Social Science published the
results of a laborious inyestiga ton on the
effect Of the weather on drunkenness. The
author concluded that excessive humidity
high barometer and clustering gales in
creased the number of arrests for intoxica-
ton. Raise the barometer, saturate the air,
speed up the wind and clap the resulting
drunkards in the hold-over or build wind
breaks, rarely and desiccate the atmosphere
and empty the jails.
II geneTalizations may be drawn from
the effects of the cold wave in Kansas City
night before last what a paradise Green
land and Nova Zembla must be. The prison
at Archangel should contain only criminals
from the south of Russia. and the Spleen
bergen Sunday school ought to be crowded
week after week. The arctic climate must
be a fine reforming agent. Who ever heard
of any important Eskimo criminal? The

TREE AS INQUISIToR.
Used in Madagascar to Learn if Pris-
oners Were Guilty or Not.

From the Toledo Blade.
One of the most deadly trees in the
world is to be found in Madagascar, where
it is known as the tangen tree. Its scien-
tific name is tanguinia venenifera the latter
word s,gnifying poisonous. BY the natives
1t is regarded with a sort of horror and
for excellent reasons For centuries Ii was
the custom to use the fruit of the tangen
for the purpose of ascertaining whether
criminals charged with grave offenses were
guilty or not.
In each case the prisoner was brought
into court, and the judge thereupon solemn
ly handed him fruit from q tangen tree
and told him that IL he ate IL and IL did
him no harm he would be considered in
nocent, but that II 1t killed him he would
be considered guilty. AS there is a great
deal of poison in the fruit II can readily
be seen that very few. If indeed any, were
able to pass through this ordeal unscathed
1t is said that some criminals who had
great political influence or considerable
wealth managed to cape through the con-
nivance of the judges; but, on the other
hand the criminal records tell of many
cases in which prisoners died a horrible
death very soon after they had eaten the
noXious fruit. More civilized methods OF
adjudication now prevail In Madagascar
but though this barbarous custom Is obso-
lete. the taugen tree is regarded with al
most as much aversion II ever was A
proof Of this may be found in the fact that
a French naturalist recently tried to obtain
some branches and fruit OF the trees, but,
though he asked several natives to aid him
In the search he was unable to obtain the
slightest assistance from any OF them.

A Negro Queens Nerves"

From the London Telegraph.
Civilization is making way in Abyssinia
The latest innovation is--nerves. These
have been developed in Queen TaItu TO a
quite alarming extent, and, when King
Menelik complains. she retorts that he is
all for civilization, and now he has got it

men,, she is reported to have said. have

way to nerves; if they do anything which
is not just quite what it ought to be. 1t is
nerves; even if they murder their husbands
or run away with another man, ii is ex-
cused because they were afflicted with
nerves.. The latest exhibition of the
nerves of the black queen was induced by
the Inauguration of the new railway. The
emperor announced his intention OF going,
and had all his best clothes brought out, In
Guiding his choicest umbrella. when he was

that 1t was useless to oppose her. when she

INDIAN CEMETERY MAY GO.
The Wyondottes Expect to Sell Their
Burial Ground in Kansas City.

From the Kansas CITY star.
a movement is on foot among the surviv
ing members of the Wyandotte Indians and
their descendants to sell the Huron Place
cemetery, the historic old burial ground in
the heart Of Kansas City, Kan. where lie
the bones of many of the Wyandotte In
dams who came to the Kaw's mouth in
1S43. when the tribe migrated westward
from .le Ohio reservation. For years the
city has been encrOaching on the old burial
ground and the white man has been looking
with coyetous eyes on the valuable little
tract Of ground but a respect for their dead
and A tender sentiment for the preservation
OF their last resting place has deferred the
surviving members of the tribe and their
descendants from parting with the prop
erty. Recently. however, the Wyancottes
have come 10 realize that it would be use
less 10 try to keep the cemetery in its pres
ent location and within a few days Is
probable that a request will be made that
the Secretary OF the Interior sell the prop
erty.
SiIas Armstrong one of the few surviving
Wyandottes who is now connected with the
governments Indian service. and who has
authority TO speak for the wyandottes I'm
the Indian territory. Is In the city today.
He said 10 a reporter for the Star:
The Wyandottes have decided to dispose
of their burial ground. and will ask the
Secretary of the Interior to sell 1t. We
shall ask that the sum of 5000 be set
aside to defray the expense OF moving the
bodies to the Indian cemetery at Quindaro
and In making suitable improvements and
adornments Of that cemetery. The re-
mainder Of the money derived from the
sale of the cemetery We will ask to be d.
vided among the surviving Wyandottes and
their heirs This matter has been under
consideration by the association which was
organized some time ago for the care and
preservation of the cemetery. and am con-
WINGED that when Il is clearly understood all
concerned viii join In the movement"
Under the treaty Of 1855. when the Wyan-
dotte lands were allotted to families of the
tribe. the Huron Place burial ground the
old Indian cemetery at Quindaro and four
acres on the levee were SEE aside by the
government for the tribe. The leyee Drop

QUEER PEOPLE.
Lolos Have Customs Entirely Different
From Chinese

From the Boston Globe
Writing of the Lolos of Chinese Turkes-
tan Rev. w. NJ. Upcraft says: The men
wear loose blouse and wide short trous-
ers, made of blue cotton cloth. over which
a stout plated felt cloak is thrown, which
reaches from the neck to the knees, and is
useful by day In cold or wet weather AMI
at night forms an ample covering" So far
as L remember, they wear long trousers,
too To quote again from the same writer:
one peculiar feature Is the manner of
dressing the hair Instead OF wearing a
queue in the way adopted by the Chinese.
the Lolos allow the hair to grow long to
the front, then braid 1t into kind of horn
above the forehead, so that It becomes the
most conspicuous object about them. The
women folk wear a short jacket often fine
~ embroidered, over a plated skirt, not
unlike a Scotch kilt. Their feet and ankles
are bare-a fine contrast to the cramped,
deformed feet Of the Chinese women"
they have well-formed figures and even
features. The ease with which they go
about their work attracts the attention
and wins the admiration OF the traveller
On this special occasion l found the whole
family sitting around big log fire, watch
Ing the cooking of a COW, which had died
from the cold. in an enormous iron rot,
When they considered the carcass cooked
the housewife took a big wooden spoon,
several feet long, and shoveled the con-
tents OF the pot into small tubs. which
were placed before each man, likewise q
good supply of rice.
Wooden spoons were used in eating; chop
sticks l did not see. The tubs were care
fully watched and replenished as soon as a
diminution became noticeable. When the
principal performers could no longer In
dulge the tubs were passed to the younger
and inferior members of the household and
between them all they managed to put ont
of sight both cow and rice. Beds were NOT
in use, so / was offered the use of a grain
chest-quite a dlgnifed place compared
with the rest

AN ANCIENT MAMMAL.
& Duck Billed Dinosaur Among Speci-
mems in Museum at New York

FROM the New York Tribune.
There are many objects on exhibition at
the American Museum of Natural History
which are interesting because of their an
tlquity, but there are not many there or
elsewhere older than the skull of a duck
billed dinosaur, which has just been mount
ed and placed on exhibition. DR.. Bumpus,
in his description of this specimen, which
is forty seven inches long and fifteen inch
wide at the bill, said:
1T lived during the cretaceous, the lat
est period of the age of reptiles. before
the age of mammals began, perhaps some
three or four million years ago. There
were then no animals of the ordinary quad
ruped type, excepting a few small and
scarce ones. and various kinds Of reptiles
took the place now held by our large ami
mails"
Until some other specimen is produced to
take Its place this new exhibit will be
looked upon as the .oldests inhabitant' of
the fossil mammal hall in comparison with
which some of the mastodons and mann
moths with only few thousand years to
their cerdit are mere youths. When the
Rocky mountains were not yet formed and
when the western plains were covered with
water, the region was inhabited by race
OF monster reptiles to which science gave
the name dinosaurs, or terrible lizards.
There is nothing in the animal world of
the present time like them or related to
them. The animal was like crocodile
and like an ostrich also, and The fact that
1t has vanished from the earth as liv-
ing creature makes specimens like the one
which has just been placed on exhibition
highly valuable.
The description furnished at the museum
states further:
THE animal was herbiyorous, as the
teeth are fitted for grinding, but not for
cutting or tearing. The exact nature Of
the food and the object of the broad bill
are uncertain. The skin was covered with
small scales, like that of snake
1T was probably a swamp dweller or
partly amphibous. as it's remains are found
In rock formation supposed to have been
deposited In brackish or fresh, water
swamps. along with fossil fresh water tur-
ties. crocodiles reeds and rushes, and
other plant and animal remains appropriate
to such conditions. The animal is sup
posed to have walked on the hind legs,
seldom or never resting the fore feet on
the ground, but perhaps using them some
what to assist in feeding. In running
the long, heavy tail held in the air would
balance the weight Of the body and head
In front OF the legs. Many lizards, when
they run fast. balance In this way, not
touching the fore feet"
