HERE'S AN HONEST INJUN.
Found In Far North, Where He Breaks
In, but Not to Steal.

Many curious instances of the man.
ner In which the honesty Of the In.
dams manifests itself are cited in the
north country Of the Canadian north.
west, says writer in the World to-
day.
One of the. tales is of native who,
desiring food and tobacco and blank
cts. broke into the store of q remote
trading post which had been locked
and abandoned for few weeks while
the white man in charge transacted
business elsewhere. The Indian sup
piled his needs and he left pelts in
payment for what he took and months
later he came back to ascertain If he
had left enough.
The Indian found post closed when
when he went to it to dispose Of his
skins. Being unwilling to wait he
forcibly entered and left his pack, but
nothing with 1t to indicate his identi.
ty. Then he retired, fastening the
door as best he could and not until
year later did he return.
When he walked into the post and
told his story, the price of the skins
was handed over to him without
question. The accounts of the white
man had been carefully kept, and he
was certain that 10 claim but Just
one would be made.
An unsual degree of confidence is
reposed in the half-breeds, who are
lieutenants of the white traders. In
Edmonton saw a trader give one Of
his half-breed employees $3.50 to be
taken to distant post and there dis.
tributed as wages to others. The two
shook hands and parted, not to meet
for q year, and the white man said
he was sure not a cent of the money!
would fail to reach its rightful desti.
nation.
In the town Of Edmonton itself hon.
esty seems to vie with hospitality for
the credit of being the most prominent
trait OF the citizens. Scores of thou.
sands of dollars worth Of furs are
stored there in warehouses, which are
seldom OF never locked or guarded.
Only the most valuable pelts ara
put under lock and key, and then the
purpose is more to protect from acct.
dental damage than from possible
theft.

READY TO TAKE NOTES.
Cruel Husband Had stenographer to
Record Wife's Remarks.

Frederic Irland. at the last conven.
ton of the National Association of
Stenographers At Atlantic City, said
OF somewhat harsh rebuke that one
stenographer had administered to an.
other:
"That rebuke was little to cruel,
was it not? 1t reminds me of the cru
city of a Washington mana piece
OF cruelty wherein stenography played
an unwilling part.
"As this man came to bed one night
his wife said to him:
i. Has the stranger gone; I didn't
hear him.
"'Oh, no. dear. He hasn't gone the
husband replied. I have instructed
the maid to let him out in three or
four hours
"The wife looked amazed and stupe-
fed.
What-why-who on earth is he,
anyway she stammered.
My dear said the husband, quiet
". he Is shorthand reporter. You
see, nearly always forget what you
say to me during your discourse from
IL till two and sometimes go to sleep
while you're talking. So l thought I'd
have your lecture written out tonight
and study it at my leisure. The young
man is all ready, the door is open so
that he can hear you, and you may be-
gin as soon as you like"

LOSES PENSION BY TlmlpIrY.
War Veteran Refuses to Strip Before
Physicians for Examination.

Omaha, Neb.-Because he refuses to
strip for medical examination, John
Darnough, veteran who withstood
the rigors of the civil war and distin.
guished himself by his bravery in bat
tie, cannot get government pension
Of which he stands in sore need.
Darnough is GA years of age and
sufferer from catarrh of the stomach.
Three times he has applied for a pen
sion and each time he has refused to
undergo the physical examination. In
letter received by the pension EN-
aminers in Omaha he again positively
refuses to strip in the presence of the
examining physicians.
During the war Darnough's COM
rades gave him the sobriquet of SISSY
John" It is said of him that he would
never battle in the presence of even
his tent mate.
Although Darnough lives on South
Dakota homestead and has spent most
of his life in the West, no tenderfoot
from the East probably ever had more
delicate taste or niceness in the mat
ter of dress.
Ills comrades say that when he was
In the army he was never known to
drink, smoke or chew, and that his
only fault was q copious indulgence
In profanity under proyocation.

TURNED ON THE REFEREE.
Turtles Objected to His Interruption
Of Their Fight.

Milton ]. Vreeland, farmer living
near Pine Brook, N. j., was nearly
drowned in the Passiac river yester-
day as the result of his acting as ref.
cree between two swapping turtles,
says the New York World. Vreeland,
who was in a canoe, watched the bout
Tor minute or two and then decided
that 1t was time for the combatants
to break away.
He padded up to them, reached over
the side, caught them by the tails,
one in each hand, and swung them into
the canoe-one in the bow, the other
In the stern of the frail craft. But the
turtles did not accept this decision.
They wanted to fight on. and being
unable to get at each other they at
tackled the self-appointed referee.
The farmer had found it an easy
matter to catch hold of the turtles
tails when they were in the water,
but it was impossible now with the
canoe to keep on an even keel. He
caught up the paddle and with this
managed to beat of his assailants for
awhile, but at last the canoe capsized.
AS 1t did SO one of the turtles dealt the
farmer a blow in the back just below
the belt. 1t chung to the place on the
trousers where it had snapped and

Boston.-A room ''in which one may
cit in silence, and absorb sweet
thoughts and partake Of the uplifting
and harmonizing influence of intelli
gent auto-suggestion" has been opened
by the Metropolitan club in Hunting

Henry Wood Of Cambridge, one of the

GENTLEMEN:
Replying to your favor of the 18th
instant, unhesitatingly advise all
consumers of coal to lay in a supply
during the summer months and
thereby avoid the inconvenience
which must result on account of a
shortage of cars next winter which
in my opinion will be much more
acute than was the shortage of last
winter, unless the consumers lay in
their Coal supply as suggested.
You are at liberty to publish this
in the interest of the producers and
consumers Of Coal.
