Queer Salutations

THERE are many curious forms of saluta-
l. ton practised by different nations.
When the Laplander meets a friend, he gravely
walks up TO him and, pressing his nose against
the olfactory organ of his acquaintance, rubs
II violently from side TO side.
The South Sea Islanders salute each other
by rubbing their hands or feet against the
cheek
The Turks consider it a mark of indecent
familiarity to remove their head-dress IN the
presence of company, and in nearly all Orr
entail countries the people seldom remove
their hats as a salute
In Japan, as in other Eastern communities,
shoes are never worn IN the houses. The
Chinese are profound in their salutations, and
a code OF various complex greetings IS pre-
scribed and learned by all Cinnamon.

Drinking of Healths

THE drinking of healths IN wine or liquor
OF other kinds originated IN Britain at
the time OF the rule of the Danes, before Alfred
the Great finally succeeded in driving them
from the land.
Owing TO the assassination of Englishmen
by the Danes, 1t became a custom to enter
into compacts for the mutual preservation of
health and security. These compacts were
usually pledged in wine, and hence the Gus
tom OF drinking healths

ENJoIN SANTA FE MINES.
Action Is Commenced to stop Their
Operation.

Proceedings to enjoin the Cherokee
and Pittsburg Coal and Mining com
pany. commonly known as the Santa
Fe Coal company. from operating the
mines in the Cherokee district lately
leased to the Mount Carmel Coal com
pany, were commenced yesterday
afternoon by the trustees of the Devlin
estate.
The injunction was applied for to n.
H. LOOMS. the referee in bankruptcy
of the Devlin estate. and is intended to
keep the coal company from interior
ing with the trustees IN the operation
of its properties. The argument for
the granting Of the injunction will be
made before Judge Pollock of the fed
eral court June 10.
The lease Of the Cherokee and Pitts
burg Coal Mining company properties
was made to Mr. Devlin in 1896. The
lease expired May 81 Of this year, but
the trustees of the Devlin estate claim
that there were certain stipulations
contained in the lease which permitted
the trustees to continue the lease. such
at least is the claim. The stockholders
of the Cherokee and Pittsburg Coal
Mining company. who are the same as
the stockholders in the Santa Fe rail-
road, assumed control Of the properties
on June I without notifying the trus-
tees, appointing a manager and super
intendent. In addition the trustees
have another grievance-they want TO
be paid for the improvements which
they have put on the property since
taking control

the necessity of preventing others fol-
lowing in their footsteps.
Fathers. parents. mothers and guard
ans can do more for the preventing of
these things, than any one else.
At the convention the question was
asked, Why must we so carefully guard
our children? The answer was. Because
they are in constant danger. In the
laws of nature God laid down IN the
beginning, he provided for every need
that would come to this world. AS we
look around US. we see the fields and
trees performing the laws laid down
showing the natural instinct of caring
for their young. The mother bird hoy
ering over her young until they are old
enough to push from the nest. never
leaving them until they can fly and
care for themselves, and what pitiful
cries we hear from both father and
mother bird if by some chance danger
Turks near.
Do you think if our boys and girls
had been watched over by fathers and
solicitude as the mother bird shows
and as God intended parents should,
there would not be in our Crittenton
Home today so many between the age
OF IS TO 20

this kind harbors crime, but such is not
the case. We are only striving to build

Question of Classification Troubling
Freight Agents.

New Orleans. June IA most un-
usual question in classifying frog skins
as freight was today asked of the
freight agents of several railroads in
this state by their rural agents. The
question is whether a frog skin shall
be classed with wild animal hides. bird
skins, fish or in a class by itself for
which double rates shall be charged
Dealers have had the skins shipped
under each of these headings, but SO
large has become the industry of send
ing them east for manufacture into
covers for ladies pocket books that
more uniformity is demanded. The
extreme lightness of this commodity
has contributed to the confusion in
classification.
