Invisible Indians.

All Indians seem to have learned a
wonderful way Of walking unseen
making themselves invisible like GER
tain spiders, which In case Of alarm,
caused for example by bird alight-
ing on the bush their webs are spread
upon, Immediately bounce themselves
up and down on their elastic threads
so rapidly that only blur is visible
The wild Indian power Of escaping
observation, even where there is little
or no cover to hide In, was probably
slowly acquired in hard hunting and
lighting lessons while trying to ap-
proach game, take enemies By sur
prise or get safely away when COM
PEELED to retreat. And this expert
ence transmitted through many gen.
erations seems at length to have be-
come what Is vaguely called instinct.

Salt Eaters.

Idiosyncrasy often takes the form
of a special craving for, instead of
an objection to. certain foods. Many
people possess an extraordinary
relish for common salt, and will eat
it by the teaspoonful when oppor-
tunity admits. This sometimes leads
to obesity and dropsy, but it has also
the peculiar effect of increasing the
weight One young lady who devoured
immense quantities OF salt on every
possible occasion. and emptied all the
salt-cellars on the table at each meal,

Reason For Gratitude.
My friends, if there is one thing
above all others for which every
Southerner ought to fall on his
knees and thank God for tonight, it
is that when Sumter fell, Abraham
Lincoln had wisdom and courage
enough to raise up as army to meet
force with force; it is that in the
breasts of the men of the North
there was sufficient love of a great
country to lead them to shoulder
arms and follow her flag to death
for her preservation; it is that after
four years of a terrible Civil war;
the South beaten, starved, exhausted
saw her great general Lee at Apo
mattox on the twelfth of April forty
six years ago, surrender the army
of Northern Virginia to our great
general Grant, and so bring the con-
flict to a close. For because of these
things and these things alone, it has
so transpired that every citizen of
the United States, be he Northerner
or Southerner, has a country and a
flag to which no country or flag on
the face of the earth is superior in
strength or wealth or glory or that
moral force which makes a nation
mighty. prolonged Applause

 MILLS TO CLOSE

Selma. May -(Specal)-The two cot ton mills of this city will be closed down for the summer months within the next two weeks, so 1t is reported on the streets here today.
 Employees of both the mills have left in numbers during the past week for points in Georgia, where they will work during the summer. If the report proves true 1t expected that the mills will again resume operations with the opening of the next cotton season.
 Both of the Selma cotton mills nave been idle for the past two years untll about three months ago. One of the mills has been working full time with all Of the force it could secure, while the other mill has only employed half the regular force and had only half of the plant In operation. The present high price which cotton is demanding is given as the cause for the suspending of operations during the summer.

.PASTEUR INSTITUTE
 SEEKS QUARTERS

Montgomery, May 2.-(Special. .)-New quarters have not yet been assigned the state Pasteur department. While it is generally understood that this de- partment will be given separate building near the capitol the location has not yet been determined upon, though it is more than probable that the matter will be arranged during the present week.
 The Pasteur institute was one of the departments scheduled to be moved from the capitol, not merely because of the fact that more room was de- sired on the third floor for the court of appeals, but also because there was considerable objection on the part Of state officials to the location of the in- stitute In the capitol.
 It is understood that arrangements will shortly be made for moving the department to separate building. It is proposed to establish the laboratory in a separate building contiguous to the capitol. There Is a probability that pr. Sanders, state health officer, who has the matter in charge, will rent n dwelling house on one of the streets adjoining the capitol. This arrange ment, 1t is pointed out, would give the department the necessary room which it requires and allow it to fit
