Lona sieaes In Congress.

Samuel ]. Randall of Pennsylvania
was an avowed protectiOnist Democrat
and a man who, his colleagues had
learned, usually was able to get his
way. Randall had first entered con-
gress In 1862. He was quiet, per-
sistent, hardworking person who at
tracted little attention for several
years. Then the Republicans. sure Of
their majority and wishing to expedite
business, undertook to adopt rules
which would prevent obstruction. The
quiet Mr.. Randall set himself against
the attempt. He led the small Demo
cratic majority with skill so unusual
that more than once he blocked the
Republicans way until it was too late
to pass the measure. His endurance
seemed unlimited. From one session
lasting forty-six hours and twenty-five
minutes, where Randall had forced the
roll to be called seventy-fiy times, he
came out as fresh as he went in. At
another time in the fight over the
force bill he was on the floor for sew
enty-twO consecutive hours. - Ida NJ.

How Piutes Catch Quail.

The Piutes have a unique way of
getting quail. For them there is no
closed season or, indeed, any game
law whatever Seasons when the quail
come down from the mountains to the
spring the Indians make great prepa-
ration for their capture. They build
a bough house with a long slender
opening in the front formed of tall
straight sticks set closely together.
Within the house an Indian sits con
cealed, holding long timber rod
which lie operates dexterOusly through
the narrow opening. In the early
morning when the birds flock down for
wafer he picks them Off one at a time
killing them instantly. There is no re-
port in this manner of hunting to
brighten the others away, and the Indi-
an often gets enough game in a single
morning for the whole settlement

An amusing incident is told Of the
observation-disclosures of the late Justice
William q. Keogh of Ireland. 1t was
at a bar dinner at his own house, and
he had excused himself from the
guests, who had already assembled, to
go up stairs to dress. Time went by.
but he did not reappear. The company
sat patiently for some time till at
length, when their appetites were get
ting the better of their manners and
they were about to send a messenger
in quest of their absent host. he ap-
peared and explained with many apollo
gies that imagining that he was retir-
ing for the night he had undressed and
got into bed. After an hours sleep he
awOke, and it suddenly dawned on him
that his guests were waiting to dine
with him below.

education of the boys is carried on, be-
ginning at the age of seven or eight
years. They are instructed day by
day in the literature, history and
myths of the tribes, the priests being
the teachers. Without writing and
without books the HOpi have an ex-
tensive literature, and that the utmost
accuracy is observed in its oral trans
mission from generation to generation
