Uncle Sans Human Hinges,

In other cities the doors of public
buildings are set on springs and slap
to and fro as the visitor Wills, but in
Washington it appears necessary to
have a special man to open and
close the doors-human hinges as it
were-no undignified rbahging of
doors there; this custom has died out
in other places, but there are many
veteran negroes in Washington who
have seen years of such service for
the government; they have a stately
way Of performing this Office, which
gives a door an official and unoffi-
cial swing.-National Magazine.

Once as she did so a jagged. dead limb

she struggled to her feet and found

OF the Fair homestead, Almira Sent

of blood trickling from her brow. The
next moment she recognized Emily,

harshly.

"You can't see him." said Mrs. Sent
ner, deflantly. 1.-The doctors won't al

The insolence and the cruelty of her
speech fell on unheeding ears. Emily
understanding only that her husband
yet lived, turned to the hall door.
Stand back" she said, in a voice
that was little more than a thrilling
whisper, but which yet had In il some

Emily drew his head close TO her

She buried her face in the pillow be-

In the wan, gray light Of the autumn
dawn the old doctor came to the bed

she raised her white face with dumb
pleading in her eyes. The doctor
glanced at the sleeping man on the

SUDAN ARABS DUELS.
Where Pastoral Life Doesn't Always
Lead to Peace and Quiet.

EdoAOf GtiC OOCSl FNlOdyS
Lead to Peace and Quiet.
The country to the southeast of Te-
kar is the home OF the Hasas; the
HadendOas occupy the khors to the
south and the plateau to the south
west. Both of these are black Arabs,
speaking different languages.
The Hasas live almost entirely on
sour milk, while the Hadendoas are
agricultural as we'll as pastoral. Their
dokhn and durra, milletlike grains,
were ripening in February and being
protected from countless swarms of
small birds by men who stood on ele-
waited platforms, from which they
cracked loudly large whips with palm
leaf lashes twenty feet long.
The dress of these~Arabs is a cotton
sheet held in by a belt in which they
carry crooked knives. For other
weapons they use sticks, spears and
swords. Firearms are prohibited
Judging by the many scars borne by
the men the pastoral life is by no
means so peaceful as the poets would
lea3 us to think. Many of the scars
come from duels, in which the men
stand face to face and cut each other
alternately in the back till one cries
"Enough!"-Cairo correspondence San
