Bnsst Of soltis,

One effect OF the appearance of
the Russian squadron on this side
of Yokohams may be the immediate
despatch OF an American fleet to
Honolulu, especially if the Russians
head this way from Yokohama.
Should the Russians capture or fail
to capture the Korea and St Hubert,
they will have to take on coal some-
where. II the cruisers are in the
Pacific to destroy Japanese COM
meroe, they will certainly come in
this direction and will likely turn
up here for coal. There are several
other things they might be aiming
for, however. Ono is to join the
Rad Sea feet, on account OF the
menacing attitude OF Great Britain
in the Mediterranean; the other 10

VERY CRAVE MISTAKE.

At the conclusion OF our yester-
days leading article, headed "Suf-
rage aud Natives" we asserted that
"the granting of the suffrage since

ss far 90 we are concerned, is no
nightmare and that no grave mis-
take has been made" We wish TO
v.iterate that assertion by reassert-
ing that the only grave mistake"
made was tho granting OF the fran
ohiss to the brown natives of the
soil and the aboriginal ow ners there

cAissd, because OF their illiteracy ~.

Coffee Known for centuries.

A pamphlet published by an Arab
sheik In 1866 sheds light upon the or
igin and early use Of coffee. This
Arab sheik asserted that coffee was
introduced into Arabia from Abys-
sinia about the opening of the If
teenth century and that 1t had been
known as q beverage in the latter
country from the most remote period.
Its peculiar properties were taken ad-
vantage of by the MohammedaDs In
connection with their prolonged relig
ious ceremonies. but its use as a de-
votional antisopori1c stirred up the
fercest opposition on the part OF the
orthodox element OF the priests. Cof-
fee was declared to be an intoxicant
and was accordingly prohibited in the
koran. but i'll spite of this the coffee
drinking habit spread rapidly. For
two centuries the worlds supply Of
coffee was obtained from the prov
ince OF Yemen in southern Arabia.

MAGIC IN THE zuNI TRIBE.
Priest Apparently Lifted jug Of
Water with q Feather

"The most startling feat ever saw
said guest at the Diller last night,
who has made study Of Indians in
various parts of the United States for
his own ediication. was performed
by the priests of the Zuni tribe in Ari-
IONA, or, as they were called. The
Ancients of Creation. They seat them
selves in a circle on the clay floor,
around a Jar that will hold perhaps a
gallon, an ancient ard sacred earthen
vessel, which is filed with water.
The chief priest carries in his hand
two ordinary eagle feathers. which are
tied together at the quill ends so that
they make a fork. Behind he circle
of the priests are other members CT
the tribe and the musicians with their
drums and gourds. who join In the
chants with emotion.
1.-The ircantatiors continue for sew
eral hours and when the participants
and spectators are brought up to
proper pitch Of excitement the priest
lifts the Jar with them and holds 1t
suspended for a minute or two at
height level with his face or breast.
Then he lowers it slowly to the grourd.
This feat is repeated several times
during the performance. Apparently
there is nothing in the hand Of the

FOR RURAL CARRIERS
Uniforms to be Provided By
United States Government

The carriers on rural free delivery
mail routes centering at the Wausau
postoff1ce will this fall wear attractive
uniforms. For that matter all per.
sons in the rural service throughout
the country will be equipped with
uniforms, since Uncle Sam is working
that line at present. Many post
masters throughout the country have
received communications from Wash.
ington regarding the propose uni.
forms and were asked to suggest what
they considered the most serviceable
and attractive uniforms for the rural
carriers. These letters of inquiry
have been sent out to postoffice
officials all over the country where
there are rural route centers and the
government aims to secure suggestions
of the officials and from the collection
thus secured make the final selection.
1t is expected that the government
will adopt uniform as soon as pos.
Sible and the pOstmaSterS believe the
carriers will be able to don the garb
some time this fall. There are three
rural routes with Wausau as center.
1t is believed the government will
adopt the helmet hat as part of the
uniform, but what the remainder will
be has not been determined. The
entire uniform consists of hat and

Pound Old Gun in River Bed.

T. c. Thompson the other day while
examining the rock formations in the
river bed about one hundred feet above
Sherman rock found an old German
gun. 1t is thirty inch double
barreled muzzle loader with percussion
caps. The barrel is of the double
twist pattern and contains quite a
little silver in its composition. Very
little of the wooden stock is left and
the barrel is in bad state Of decom-
position. In different parts OF the bar
rel little pebbles are imbedded very
solid. The superstition is that the gun
was lost from raft that was broken
up coming through the 'sgrand rapids"
Judging from what is left of the gun
it must have laid in the river bottom
for forty or fifty years. It is an inter-
esting relic which Mr.. Thompson prizes
quite highly. He also found horse
shoe and a pike pole in the same local
ity. The gun is on exhibition in Oscar
Morterud's Photographic window
where it may be seen by the public for
a few days.
