proved a source, not only of benefit to
the soldiers, but also of great amuse-
ment to the people at-large. 1t is SAID
that for long time after the battle
had been fought the endorsement Lost
at the Battle of Val Verde, appeared
on almost every tracer sent out by the
department in Washington after gov
ernment property and for which no
satisfactory accounting could be made
by the New Mexican troops. The quar-
termaster generals department, 1T Is
said, finally figured out that the total
value of the contents Of the two cap
tured wagons was close on TO a half
million, and lost at the battle Of Val
Verde became a standing joke in the
territory.
"And then there were some interest
ing times, too, when the Navajos
were on the war path. For many
years the Navajos had plundered and
murdered without restraint and the
government finally decided on drastic
measures Colonel Kit Carson was
placed in command of punitive expe-
dition and he had orders to follow up
the Indians and show no mercy as long
as they continued belligerent. And ne
followed out these instruction to the
letter. The Navajos We're driven from
rlace to place and their country, their
flocks and their property, of whatever
description were destroyed. At last the
Indians were forced to surrender by
starvation and they made their way
into the American camp in squads OF
fifty and more. They were little more
that living skeletons and presented
most pitiful sight. They were taken IN
charge by the United States and held
captives until later they were released
by General Sherman and allowed to re-
turn to their own country. At the
time of their release the Nava5os num-
bered few more than 5000 or 1000
but they had been taught severe
lesson and at once applied themselves
to the upbuilding of their tribe. To-day
they number about 10000 and are a
prosperous people, owning their farms
and flocks end are quite Industrious
for Indians. The cost of conquerins
the Navajos and their subsequent cap
t:vity ran up into the millions"

What Constitutes Greatness

What constitutes a great steamship
manager? asks Tip" in the New York
Press. And then he proceeds with the
reply and with other questions and an
swers. An ability to scour Europe
for grand round-ups Of human cattle
and import the biggest part of 1,000,-
600 scum a year. What makes the
great lawyer? Winning cases for his
clients regardless Of methods. What
makes a great banker? Making 100
per cent year for the stockholders.
What makes the great railroad presi-
dent? Piling up tremendous surplus
for the directors to spend in better
ments" while the stockholders wait
What makes the great politician? A
lack of craftsmanship. An honest pol
itician is the rarest work of God.
What makes the great philosopher?
An assured income for life. What
makes the great admiral? The men
behind the guns. What makes the
great doctor? Our fear of death.

EARL JOHSON UNDERWENT
ANOTHER THIS MORNING.
He May Pull ThrOugh-Was In
Critical State.

From Thursdays Banner.
When Earl johnson was shot in
Lowell Sept. 3rd it was thought his
chance for recovery was very slim as
the operation in probing the wound
was not very successful one and he
remained in that city under the best
of care for twenty three days.
Last Saturday he was removed to
his uncle's VIM. L. Carver near Cook
Corners, accompanied by Dr's Pink
ham of this city and DR. Perry Schurtz
OF Grand Rapids and il was decided
that an operation would be necessary
1t was at first thought best TO have
him taken to Grand Rapids, but he
was not able to be moved and the
operation was performed this morn
ing at the Carver home.
DIR. Perry Schurtz of Grand Rapids
conducted it, assisted by Drs. Pink
ham, Stanton and Morris. The patient
was put under the influence Of anaes-
thetics and'the operation revealed the
fact that the bullet had gone through
one lung and passed very near the
heart. A large quantity of pus had
formed and when an incision was
made it spurted out in large stream,
nearly 219 gallons being taken away.
There was much Inflammation and es-
pecially in the lung, considerable gan
creme was discovered, parts of two
7, bs inches long we're removed, it
being necessary TO do so, on account
of the injured and diseased condition,
and hole was made in Johnson's
body big enough to insert an arm.
When the incision was made the
pus flew several feet and the cavity
which had contained the pus showed
that the heart had been pushed clear
over to the right side of the body,
when the pus was gone the heart
dropped back into its natural position
and was plainly visible to those pres
ent while performing its work. About
third of the left lung was removed
and the wound closed, only time will
tell now. as to the result of the joh
there being but the smallest chances
for his recovery.

ROYALTIES and ReuIcides.

II would have been a strange thing,
indeed, If the crowned heads of Europe
had all agreed to congratulate a new
accession to their number as having
arrived by the grace of God and the
will Of the people" when he notorious
ly did arrive by the grace of a gang
of assassins and the Will of a legisla-
ture which the assassins controlled.
The very last man in Europe to admit
that a regicide, in any circumstances,
is no crime, the Car of Russia, was
yet the very first to congratulate with
out reserve the man who came
through regicide to be monarch OF
Servia. This was very strange.

NEW STORIES OF CARLYLE.
Great Philosopher Was Sometimes
Trial to His Friends.

Trial to His Friends.
Goodwin Smith tells two new stories
about Carlyle. Once he was staying
with the sage at Lady Ashburton's
house. After dinner the party came
out on the lawn. A glorious moon met
their eyes. There were a few mo-
ments of painful silence; then a voice
was heard exclaiming: "Puir auld
thing" The audience was left to
guess whether the moon was 'puir"
in itself or because it was doomed to
look down upon vile humanity. At
that time Tennyson was one of the
circle at Lady Ashburton's. He was
asked to read one Of his own poems
aloud, but. to the general surprise and
disappointment, he refused. Looking
across the room, Prof. Smith saw the
cause of the difficulty Close to Ten
nyson was Carlyle, who hid not failed
in the universal sweep of his philos-
ophy to pass an opinion on poetry in
its realtion to common sense. Prof
Smith, devoting himself to the public
good, went across and invited Carlyle
to stroll in the grounds. He accept
ed the vita ion and during the stroll
the reading came off.

Disappointed ArcheoIoaists.

Bourke Cochran is airing an anus
ing anecdote picked up during his
European trip. 1t seems that two
distinguished psychologists made an
excursion to the Isles of Arran, where
interesting remains Of an archeologi-
cal nature exist. They came across a
little rough stone building. and both
entered into fierce argument as to
the exact century of its erection, one
maintaining it was built in the fifth,
and the other in the sixth century.
A native who had listened to the
hot discussion suddenly broke in:
"Arrah, yer Honors, both Of yeze are
wrong. Twas put up three years ago
by Patsy Doolan for his jackass!"--

An institute for massage by the
blind, which is about to be started In
England under a committee that In
cludes many representative medical
men, is not an experiment. 1t has
been pro, ed that the blind can become
expert in the practice of massage,
which in Japan is commonly recog-
nized as their work. The occupations
open to the blind are few and rarely
remunerative. This difficulty Is one
of the gravest obstacles to the i'm
proveInent of the condition Of this af-
fiicted class. There are already sew
eral blind masseurs In England. Blind
students must obtain first-class medi-
cal certificates in an art which Is
daily more used, especially by sur
geons in sprains and bruises, and mas
seures will be allowed to treat only
women and children and masseurs
only men. 1t is worthy Of note that
the blind are usually endowed with
sense of touch exceptionally fine, SO
that here, and perhaps here alone, is
field In which they may surpass their
seeing fellows. massage being depen-
dent for its success upon the nicely Of

A SECOND
OPERATION

HOW 1T PANIED OUT
lonia District Fair Last Week. At
tendance Light, Receipts SIIT5.


From Thursdays Banner.
To the faithful and energetic Ghosts
of the president and secretary is
due the fortunate fact that lonia dis
trict fair will come out nearly even
financially this rear. The fact that
feeling had been engendered by past
events, under conditions of peculiar
misfortune for which there was no
adequate provision, and for which
the officers were in no way to blame,
and the further fact that the week
has beeu one of the busiest for farm
ers in the whole year, is due the
meagre exhibition of products and
the comparatively small attendance.
The good races and the special at
fractions, however, made the show
worth the money. and saved it from
disaster.
The receipts at gate and grand
stand are approximately first day.
800; second day, $3.50; third day, 1850;
and for booths and privileges, Sl7F,
making total of $l475, to which is to
be added the entry fees, no estimate
OF which is made.
If the fair is to be sustained, there
ought to be some general movement
to put ii on a sound foundation, ensur-
ing the payment of premiums in full,
and providing floral hall, which is
absolutely necessary to interest the
women and insure success. This is
matter certain to come up for action,
and those who are interested cannot
evade facing the situation The
grounds are valuable, and the inn
provements represent much labor and
money value, in comparison with
which the standing debt is not large,
and it would not seem wise to sacri-
ice too readily these advantages
