A PROFITABLE DREAM.

The Colonial Governor, Sir William
Johnson, was a man of singular force
of character, infinitely resourceful. A
writer in the American Boy says thai
Sir William set about his business OF
acquiring power and influence by a
profuse and charming as we'll as most
original hospitality. Among his guests
on one occasion was a powerful sa.
chem of the Mohawk tribe named Hen.
dirk. Johnson had very beautiful
embroidered coat which the savage
chief set his heart upon possessing
So one morning he announced in the
usual solemn, sedate style of the red
man; Brother, me dream last night. u
"Ah," answered Sir William, '"and OF
what did my red brother dream?"
Me dream" said the Mohawk la.
conically, chat the embroidered coat
was mine"
Surely dreams are from the Great
Spirit, are they not?" said the baro
net.
yes, oh, yes"
'All dreams?"
Cali dreams?"
Truly, all dreams"
Then" said Sir William, devoutly
"of course the coat is yours; take it.
my red brother-my gift from the
Great Spirit"
The sachem never moved a muscle
of his imperturbable face, but doubt
less chuckled far within at the ease
with which he had imposed upon the
pale face. But in the long run the i'm
positions are not for the simple saw
age Sir William bided his time, and
when, not long after he returned the
chiefs visit, he, too, slept, and in his
slumbers dreamed, or professed to
dream dream.
What did my pale-face brother
dream?" inquired Hendrix, not doubt
ing that he would be called upon to
repay the coat with some trifling gew.
gaw, but wholly unprepared for the
astounding demand that followed.
Sir William had. dreamed to some
purpose, no less than that certain
broad tract of land-the bulk, in fact
of the best lands of all the Six Nations
should be given up to him, to him
and his heirs forever.
The discounted Indian was at first
inclined to demur to this inequity.
What" exclaimed Sir William
are not dreams from the Great Spir

The Mohawk lugubriously enough
supposed they were.
"Then," said the willy baronet, "the
land is mine"
The Indian sat in stolid silence fol
while, then, rising majestically, he
answered: Eyes, brother, the land is
yours; but you must have no more
such dreams"
1t was in the center of this great do
main, thousands upon thousands OF
acres, that Johnson reared his state
ly palace, by far the finest and most
lordly residence of colonial times-at
least north of Mason and Dixon's line

AUNT BUsYs MISFORTUNE.

Aunt Busy has lost her spectacles
and has been unable to read the let
tiers received from her nephews and
nieces or reply to them. Uncle Busy
saws that he wants TO take whack
at some of her dear children, and has
asked the editor to allow him to do
SO. Uncle Busy is not nearly so kind
hearted as Aunt Busy and he likes
girls better than boys, so the editor
has not been able to make Up his mind
whether it would be safe to turn him
loose on Aunt Busy's cherished flock.
He is old fashioned and believes that
boys ought to be thrashed when they
are bad. If he gets a cnance it is
feared that ne will make himself dis
agreeable as he nas often quarreled
with Aunt Elsy over the way she PAM

added to four tablespoonsful of cold
water starch, and mixed with a little

TURK FINED WITH
HEAVY TRIMMINGS

Frank j. Turk pleaded guilty to TAX
ing a fee of So from sailor for ship
ping him on the bark James Nesmith
and his attorney, A. S. Humphreys
asked for a light sentence. Counsel
stated that a New York decision had
held the law under which Turk was
prosecuted to be unconstitutional in it's
interference with the private right of
contract, also that the plea of guilty
was made as an accommodation to the
vessel whereby her sailing might not
be further delayed.
Judge Estee imposed fine of SIS and
costs upon Turk, and costs being swell
ed by the necessity of attaching ten
sailor witnesses the entire penalty is
about $50.

entered suit for $4,000 against
the Evening Scimitar, for alleged
libel of his character. The Scim-

people of the Bluff City generally,
have been clamoring for an inves-

affairs and have been resisted by
the mayor at every point, except
such an investigation as he may
institute of and for himself. The
two newspapers named have kept
matters red hot the last month and
Mayor Williams stubbornness and

they will land him in the end,

A Aberdeen, Miss, en- route to Jack
son, 10 visit the family of his
father, j. w. Gates, Esq. He had
ordered supper on the dining car,
and when below Corinth supper
was announced, he stepped into the
dining car and took his seat at the
table. A moment later negro
came in and seated himself oppo-
site Mr.. Gates. Being a South
erner and to the manner born, Mr..
Gates was not ready TO accept the
new presidential idea of social
equality, and he called the dining
car steward and asked if that was
the program for negroes to eat in
the dining cars. He was informed
that it wascorders from headquar-
ters. He then called for his bill
and stated that he would leave the
car. The negro guest began numb
ling something, and Gates told him
to keep quiet or he would make
him, if he had to pay for it.
Mr.. Gates has written a letter to
the company advising them, if
they expect to retain Southern
patronage, to put the negro out of
the dining car in the South. 1t is
understood that Superintendent Fl.
}. Titus, who has charge of the
dining car service, has written a
letter to the management along the
same line. The incident has caus-
ed much comment.

Sleeper In COffi 4.

A special to the New Yo K
Times from Passaic, n. D., sa. s.
Professor Lawson Hermann. a
hypnotist. put Samuel Powell 20
sleep in coffin at the Emp ce
Theatre on Thursday. He was @
awaken him last night at M l.
night. y big crowd was on hal d
to witness the re-awakening If
Powell, BIZ the professor failed 10
pat in al Jpesrance.
1t turned out that Manager So II
of the Passaic Opera House. NJ h
ire in his eye and revolver in bis
pocket, was looking for Herman n
with the Gvowed intention of shoot
ing him on sight. The professor,
earlier in the night, had heard Of
Manager Sohl's quest, and incon-
tinently had slipped out of the
theatre and the town without ap-
prising anyone of his departure.
At the witching hour when the
yawning coffin was to give up
Powell, Herman could not be
found. The big audience became
impatient, and Manager Stein, of
the Empire, became alarmed. The
manager hustled around, and after
some trouble secured Professor
Tony Frylinck. Professor Fry
linck worked all night before he
could awaken the sleeper, and by
that time the few weary spectators
who had waited to see the upshot
were SO sleepy themselves that
they had lost all interest in Poweu.
and some of those who had dozesl
off rather resented his return ~
consciousness of his surroundings,
for Powell when he learned that
Hermann had abandoned him was
at first greatly alarmed and then
waxed exceeding wroth, and ex-
pressed his opinion of the profes-
sor in language that was as loud as
it was emphatic. He says be vii
never again permit himself to be
buried alive.
Manager Sohl's lust for Her
mann's gore, it appears. was
aroused by the fact that for the
second time his wife had disaI-
peared. and ;he accuses the hypno-
tist of hypnotizing her and taking
her away. She disappeared on
Thursday and he says he traced
her and Hermann to Newark. The
first time she ran away she wes
found in Hermann apartments IN
New York, and Sohl had the pro-
fessOr arrested.
