lmpaled on a Buffalo,

Many years ago a son of an IroquOfs
halfbreed went out one day with other
Indians to run buffaloes along the Rec
river, but he never returned. They
found his horse and his gun and knife
but could not find the man. About g
year later, as the Indians were hunt
ing in another part of the country. q
buffalo COW was seen which had some
thing peculiar on her head. They
chased and killed her and found that
her singular head ornament was the
pelviS of man, one of her horns hay
ing pierced the thin part of the bone
which was wedged on so tightly that
they could scarcely get it off. Much
of the hair on the head, neck and
shoulders of the COW was worn off
short, and on the side on which the
bone was the hair looked new, as if
1t had been worn off the skin and was
beginning to grow out again 1t is
supposed that this bone was part OF
the missing halfbreed, who had been
hooked by the COW and carried about
on her head until his body fell to
pieces

Jail Sentences for Trust Magnates.

Some weeks ago, in Toledo, Ohio,
twenty -One members of a local as
ISOLATION of lumber dealers, two
agents of bridge builders, and nine
members OF a brick dealers assOcia-
ton, plead guilty to indictments
charging them with violating the
Ohio Antitrust law. On the 18th,
Judge Lindley ". Morris fined the
brick dealers $1,000 each (their plea
having related to an Offense for
which there is no prison penalty,
but, sent the twenty-One lumber
merchants and the tive bridge agents
to the worklOuse for six months.
The men thus sentenced to he I'M
prisOned are prominent in the bust
ness and social life Of the city. Their
combined wealth is said to exceed
$50, 100000, and several are church
members. There was proof that the
defendants had combined to exact
prices higher than those prevailing
in the neighboring cities. In i'm
posing the sentence Judge Morris
said that fines We're not felt by men
amply able to pay. They were only
makeshifts and did II 1T bring promi-
nent citizens to realization OF their
positions. There must be no tri-
fling with men of capital and social
standing who come into court and
admit their guilt The term OF i'm
prisonment is the shortest which the
law prescribes.

De TocoueviIle's Vision.

The Americans will become one Of
the greatest people of the world. They
will cover all North America. The
continent which they inhabit is their
domain. 1t cannot escape them. So
in the midst of the uncertainty Of the
future there is at least one event
which is certain. At an epoch which
we can call near the Anglo-Americans
will spread from the polar ice to the
south seas. - Alexis de Tocqueville,

WAITING FOR LIGHT
Trolley Company Not Able 10
 Secure the Lamps Needed.

Many wonder why the electric lights ordered installed in different parts of the city during the past two months have not been put up and think the city rather slow for not giving the public the benefit of the lights while they are needed most. The trouble Is due to the fact that the trolley company has not been able to secure the lamps and other things needed in the installation of arc lights, but they expect to be able to go ahead with the work before many more days It is too bad that people didn't have the service from the time 1t was ordered, but this was something nobody could help. It might not be amfss to state in this connection that the city does not have to pay for the lights until they start to burn.

FEATHER BED BURSTS.
Manchester People Try to Rake the
 Fuzz Off Their Lawns.

South Manchester. April 1S.-The young man who was detailed to pick fieas from Teddy Bears had an easy time compared to the work now fac ing the residents living at the corner of Laurel and Chestnut streets. At the time of the fire in the four tene- ment house owned by James Aitkin a week ago last Saturday night. some one threw feather bed from an up- per room onto the piazza roof.
 The bed was left there until Mon day, when the carpenters started to repair the building. The bed was then thrown to the ground. The cloth which encased the feathers was burn- ed at the fire and when the bed fell to the ground the feathers were re- leased. The wind was blowing strong Monday and the feathers started to travel.
 To-day the wind was again strong and more of them were set in motion and as a result the lawns owned by Albert Bidwell. the Donahue sisters. and Cheney Brothers are now covered with feathers.
 An attempt was made to rake them on. but it was of no use. and the more the attempt was made to cap ture them, the more the feathers moved around.
 There is now talk of inviting peo- pie to call and offering prize to the person who can capture the most feathers. In this way it is expected that the lawns can be cleaned.
 Another view is that the insurance company which is having the repair work done on the house is responsible for the feathers being loose and that it should be made to settle for the trouble necessary in capturing them. When 1t Is considered that there are several thousand of these feathers flying around 1t will mean big con- tract to get them cleared out.

AT THE BAZAAR.
Booth of Notre Dame Alumnae At
 tracts Much Attention.

The various booths at the charity bazaar are a source of continuous ue- light to the visitors who stroll nightly under the fag-drapped balconies or our old City hall.
 Deserving of special mention IS the booth of the Notre Dame Alumnae association, where real works or art form an embarrassment of riches, sel- dom displayed at a local bazaar The convent pupils have worked zealously for the success of their alumnae. n fact proven by their generous offer ings of artistic handiw0rk. The con- vent colors, blue and white, are dainty setting for these various arti- cles.
 Conspicuous among the creations of art is hand-decorated punch bowl, painted and presented by. the sisters of the Convent de Notre Dame This work of art is of rare beauty and compels the admiration of thousands. The bowl, resting on standard of green and gold, is a graceful design of clustering grapes and glowing f0- liage. Tickets on this beautiful ob- ject are eagerly sought and are selling so rapidly that for the accommoda- tion of the public, it has been decided to place books in the leading stores to enable those who do not attend the fair to procure chances on this covet- ed bowl
 Other hand-painted articles include pictures. frames, plates, trays, cush- ions and pillows. A splendid speci- men of pencil work by present pu- pill of Notre Dame is Il soft pillow of white satin on which is portrayed the head of a dog carrying game.
 Shawls of exquisite workmanship are In tempting array and find ready sale. Lace work, embroidery. pyrOg- raphy, and numerous small novelties are rapidly disappearing from the sup ply. An exquisite gift from Curran Bros is an urn of the rare Corlova ware. It is an exceptionally beauti- full piece of bric-a-brac. ts ph'oih sil .l
 X center-piece of Jacquiminot roses on ecru linen, embroidered by Mrs Emma Hendrick Boyle, an ex-presi- dent of the association. is an artistic success in needlework and wins chances without effort. Miss Aimee Blanchette's contribution is another money-making device. 1t is q vase of burnt wood lined with pottery, there by combining use with beauty. The vase is of graceful form decked with a spray of gorgeous peoples. A unique little apron made by Mrs James F.. Russell appeals to lovers of the dainty. It outlines the shamrock and Is en- broidered with these tiny emblems of Erin.
 An attractive sofa-pillow is Gin derella slipper. filled with rich violets. the gift of Mrs Minnie Martin. An other charming pillow. contributed by Miss Sarah Guilfoile. is of colonial figures in graceful pose. Many others too numerous to mention are of great beauty as are also the latest concep- tlons in embroidered doylies, collar and cuff sets. etc.
 Those who fail to visit the booth of the Notre Dame alumnae during the remaining evenings of the bazaar will lose an opportunity of viewing d real art exhibit.

ARTILLERY OFFICERS PLEASED
Gratified at Cooperation of Militia
With the Regulars.

Gen. Fred NJ Sackett. adjutant gen.
eral of the state of Rhode Island. called
on Acting Secretary Oliver of the War
Department yesterday and discussed
with him the order recently issued
showing the required formation of the
organized militia under the Dick mill
tia law. The militia organizations Of
Rhode Island, Gen. Sackett told Mr..
Oliver, are made UP of sixteen COM
panies. During the maneuvers Of the
coast artillery last summer several of
the state organizations participated
with the regular troops in the various
movements, and Gen. Sackett EXPRESSED
the opinion that it was probabi that
Rhode Island militia would hereafter
serve in the capacity of auxillaries to
the artillery at the same time retain
ing their infantry organization, SO as
to be ready to serve when wanted by
the state. Artillery officers expressed
great satisfaction in their reports over
the results of the participation of the
militia with the regulars. and the hope
is general that this practice may be-
come general in all the coast states.

The possible defeat Of the measure is
a bugaboo with which the infantry has no
concern. and which is to be accounted for
only on the supposition that overconcen-
tration and apprehensiveness on the part
Of its adherents have caused a mild hys-
teria.'
