Indians Good Workers.

Jake Kirkland has returned to Phoenix from northern Arizona and New Mexico, where he has been since last June, in the employ jointly of the governm mt and the Santa Fe Railroad company. says the Phoenix Republican, He has had cons deraole experience with the Indians, and his duties were those of an agent to look after the interest of the Indians on one side and the interest of the railroad on the other, the railroad having had large number of the natives in their employ. Itwas MT. Kirklanu's place first to see that the Indians kept at. their work and then to see that their time was properly made out, and to attend to similar mat ters.

Queer Russian Ways.

If you drive through Russian vil- lage about 10 p. m. you will be struck by the absolute quiet that pervades the scene. Not creature, man or dog. Is visible moving about. The place has the air of deserted village. Suppose by some rare untoward chance you come upon group of men standing together, apparently in conversation. you willMotice that they speak in sub dued tones, and, wait so long as you please. you will never hear them laugh. The cause Is simply this: These Russian peasants believe in evil spir- it's; but, unlike the Chinese. they be lleve that they are attracted, not frightened. by sounds. And 50 if some unlucky fate decree that the moujik be out of doors after II p. m. he is pain fully silent man. This feeling also ex
 tends to some of the southern towns. Kiey, the holy city of Russia, is model in this respect After 10 D. m. you may practically have the streets to yourself.-Blackwood's Magazine.

Strange Bird

J. D. Rames shot an immense bird the first of the week which puzzled everybody who saw it as to what it might be. It measured about five feet from tip to tip of the wings and over three feet from the tip of the beak to it's feet. The beak was about eight inches long. It resembled the American jabiru in everything except it's beak, which in a jabiru turns upwards while this birds beak turns down. It may have been a wood ibis, a bird which is a native of Florida. for it resembled that species of bird as much as the jabiru in all except the color. The wood ibis is white, and the dead bird had wings which were black from the tip about half way up them. It was such a curiosity in these parts that Mrs. Rames haa it photographed.

only comparatively few years their
manufacture at that time was not a
new discovery, but rather the finding
of lost art. The cement building
blocks were used by the ancients
many years ago. This is an undis-

in Egypt and in many of the old East
