Lost by a Leg.
AS a result of all this. the Manchus
and the leading officials, including
the regent. resolved to clip Yuan's
wings while they could. They did it
adroitly. They had the emperor send
forth an edict commenting him for
his great services to China, and say
ing hat the government was sorry
that he was suffering from leg disease
(~rheumatism) and could walk only
with difficulty.
This" reads the edict, ~"incapaCi-
tates him from office, and we desire
that he should vacate his post and re-
turn to his native place for medical
treatment. We order it SO that we
may show our compassion for and
consideration of him."
Yuan was given SO many days to
get out. He took his son with him

In the meantime Yuan is only fifty

done much to merit fame. Now Yuan

Chang; and again both have run along
together, working in common. Chang
was by all odds the most anous Chi
nese scholar of his day. He believed
in the classics, and looked upon the
western sciences as an adjunct there
to. Yuan Is in favor Of modern edu-

men advocated China for the Chinese,

Tells of Stirring Scenes of the
Early Pioneer Days.

Hon. Aaron F. Parker, president Of
the Idaho County Pioneer Association,
is in receipt of a letter from his old
friend, j. w. Redington, now Of Reno,
Nevada, who was scout and courier
during the three Indian campaigns of
1878 and 70 against the Nez
Perces, Bannacks and Sheepeater In
dams. Mr.. Redington was through
the Camas Prairie country last in 1879
upon his return from the middle fork
of Salmon river with Lieut.. Farrow's
detachment of the 21st. Infantry and
Umatilla Indian scouts which saw SER
vice in the Sheepeater campaign of
that year, when the entire band was
captured.

The Weather In Africa.

Everybody seems to think Of Africa
as a place Of torrid heat, with no re-
lief anywhere. But that is far from
the truth, says Chicago News. As a
matter Of fact, some parts Of that
country are as temperate as our own,
and other parts-where. the ground
reaches a great elevation-are cold.
Our impression Of the climate Of the
country Is based on what we have
heard Of the heat Of its lowlands. A
priest who lived on the Pacific coast
there for eight years says that he new
er saw the mercury higher than IS de-
grees, and at Stanley Falls, where he
now lives, the highest that it ever
reaches Is 90 degrees. with nights that
are nearly always cool. But when II
comes to storms, he says, Africa beats
anything that q European ever dream
ed of. He asserts that he once count
ed sixty-six lightning strokes in one
minute and says also that he has
known ten thunderbolts to strike with.

The Carrier Pigeon.

Did you ever hear Of pigeon carry
ing messages over long distances? The
service this little creature can tender
is beyond belief. Long before the tele-
graph was even dreamed Of the car
rier pigeon was trained to bear mes
sages to immense distances, and in
times Of war it carried communica-
ton from the besieged city to the out
err world. The carrier pigeon post has
been cultivated mostly by the Dutch.
The process of training these little
creatures consists In taking them a
short distance from home. to which
they find their way back very easily.
This distance is gradually increased
until they are brought as far as 1t is
desired they should fly. The letter
containing the message is tied around
the stem Of the middle feather of the
tail. Here it neither hinders the pi.
geon's flight nor will it fall off, but
when 1t is flying the other feathers
generally cover the letter and protect
1t from rain.

Big Alaska.

Few persons perhaps have a clear
idea Of the vast extent of Alaska, our
semipolar territory. One of the men,
bers of the geological survey party
sent there by the government several
years ago devised a unique and i'm
pressive way of giving this informa-
ton. He prepared map in which
Alaska was represented as lying on
the United States, with its northern
edge on Lake Superior and along the
border between Minnesota and Canada
In this position Alaska covered. in
whole or in part, twenty-three states
and territories. AS matter of fact,
Its area is about one-fifth of that of
the United States proper Many chill
dren know perhaps that the highest
peak on this continent. Mount Nc

Alaskan range. and the survey party
found its height to be n little more
than 10000 feet.-Chicago News

The Plural of "One.u

Beginners in the study of Latin are.
as a rule, puzzled by finding the adj
jective unus, "one," declined in both
the singular and the plural number.
That seems to be an inconsistency, as
unus means "one," and one cannot be
pluralized as an adjective. 1t Is not,
however. used in Latin in the sense of
one in the plural. In the phrase ''tres
unos passus." for example, unos is
rendered SINGLE" the translation Of
the phrase being "three single steps"
In English. Of course, the adjective
zone" Is never used In the plural. but
1t is perfectly correct to say, for In
stance, "these little Ones" as "one''
is also a noun.
