FRYING PANS AS TOBOGGANS.
Indian Use for Civilized Culinary
Utensil.
From Harper's Weekly.

From Harper's Weekly.
The Indian. however averse he may be
to any kind of useful labor, is not slow
TO avail himself of new source of amuse-
ment This was evidenced some years
ago, when among the supplies sent by the
government to certain agency in the
west were several hundred large frying
pans with long handles. These the Indian
agent found in stock when ne took pos
session, and at the end of a year the
number had not been diminished.
Thinking that perhaps he had not dis
charged his whole duty in the matter of
supplying Uncle Sans wards with these
culinary utensils, the agent began making
special efforts to induce the red men to
use them. At first it was hard work, but
by the time he had given out about two
dozen there came a sudden change. Not
a day passed in which the agent did not
and some days he disposed of twice that
number.
When the supply was nearly exhausted
he noticed among the applicants some to
whom he had previously given pans, and
naturally enough he became a trihe curl
Gus to know what use they were making
of them. He questioned several of the
men to no purpose. but at length a young
buck. more communicative than the rest,
gave him to understand that il he would
visit a certain part of the reservation not
far away, he would find his inquiry an
swered.
The next day. therefore, the agent rode
out in the direction indicated. About two
miles from the agency he noticed on the
crest of a narrow spur of the mountain
three or four Indians who suddenly dis
appeared on the opposite side of the ridge.
At the same time he heard. family, the
cry of many voices.
On turning the point of the ridge he
saw a crowd of several hundred In
dams, who We're shouting as if greatly
excited. He noticed also several objects,
which he at first supposed to be powders,
descending the side of the mountain to-
ward them with frightful rapidity. In
stead of fleeing from these moving OBJ
jects. the Indians simply applauded and
shouted. Soon he saw other objects, like
the first. descending, and in shoEx time
the whole situation was plain to him.
Having selected a long, smooth slope
of the mountain. where there were no
stones. the Indians had converted it into
sort of earthen toboggan slide and
were utilizing the frying pans for to-
boggans. Seating themselves i'm the pans.
they Srasped the handle with both hands:
then crossing their legs over their arms.
they went spinning down the slide with
great rapidity.
The agent let them have the few pans
That remained in the storehouse- but did
not order new supply.

The Silent One.

<sTT WAS in the days Of Senator Nor:
gan's prime said a veteran clerk OF
the Senate the other day, and Senator
Teller Of Colorado. then a young sprig
from the breezy west among the solemn
eastern dignitaries. often shocked them
with his undignified but laughter-compel-
ling auips Senator Morgan, who could
no more comprehend a joke than a tato-
way. was one of his favorite targets. The
elder senator was very fond of shaking
his finger at some imaginary member or
at the seat of some absent one and pour
forth his walls of invective upon HINT
got in the Record. and that is what sena-
torial speeches are for.
lone day when Thomas Plat was off
in New York and there were not dozen
senators present Morgan assailed him
virulently, now accusing him of every
thing this side of horse stealing. now
haunting him with betraying his political
friends At the end of each charge he
would shake his finger at the empty seat
readers of the speech in the Senate
never stopped to see whether Platt was
there or not-and repeat the question.
winding UP always with final taunt at
the absent one for not replying to the
charges.
Young Teller was sitting behind Nor
gan. waiting to make some unimportant
motion, lazily chewing a toothpick. AT
length, when Morgan reached about the
one hundred and fifty-ffth count in his
indictment. he turned to Platts seat and
repeated it all, demanding an immediate
answer After a few moments pause he
again shook his finger at the empty seat
and reared:
There he sits mute. dumb and silent.
Whereupon Teller leaned over and ex-
claimed I'm a stage whisper to senator
acl oss the chamber:
