Predicament Of New Indian Agent
Who Paid For Curiosity.

Predicament Of New Indian Agent
Who Paid For Curiosity.
On the old Rosebud indian reserva-
ton, in South Dakota. they still laugh
over the peculiar predicament into
which a new Indian agent once got
himself.
The agent. an unqualified tender
foot was inspecting IN Indian school,
says the Youths Companion. Noticing
that as soon as he entered the room
every Girl present brought her hair for
ward over her face. he asked the teach
or to tell them to throw it back so that
he might see their faces. Put this they
refused to do until after much urging
one Girl did finally uncover her face.
After school was over the agent Won
dered at the strange actions of the Girl
who had shown him her face. She fol-
lowed him to his house, entered after
him and set about getting his dinner.
As he spoke no Sioux AMI she no Eng
liSh he could get no explanation from
her.
Finally. to his relief. the teacher rode
up. Shaking with laughter. he asked
the agent how he liked his new wife.
Then the latter understood what he
had done. In certain tribes Of the Sioux
Indians Ill Il man need do in order to
get a wife is to induce girl to uncover
her face. The agent had proposed in
the usual way--and been accepted
In vain did the agent plead that he
already had wife in the east. There
was only one way TO get out Of it. 1t
cost him the equivalent of fourteen
ponies to persuade the Indian girls IA
Their to take her back again.

WHY A DOOR SLAMS.
A Scientific Explanation of the Effect
of a Draft.

All have wondered at some time or
other why Il door opened nearly to the
limit will close when there is Il draft
or wind going through the opening.
Certainly the wind does not get in be-
hind the door and shove it, for the
draft is through the opening.
The explanation of this fact, says the
New York Tribune. lies in q fundamen-
tai principle of moving fluids and is
the same principle that makes 4 base
ball curve. Whenever there is cur
rent in the air the Sidewise pressure is
least in that current. so when the draft
blows through the opening to the door
the pressure on that side of the door is
decreased. and consequently the pres
sure on the other side will start slowly
to move the door. making it go faster
and faster till the door swings into the
draft itself and starts going in the di-
rection of the draft. When it does 50
go in this direction. of course the draft
helps it along. because it is now not
the forward motion.
When Il ball is rotated in the air it
carries around with it 4 good deal of
air sticking to the sides. This, then, is
the same thing as saying that q cur
rent of air is flowing round the rotat-
ing ball in the direction of rotation.
Now, if Il wind blows against that
ball it is easy to see that the little rO-
tating current will be with the wind
on one side and against it on the other,
so that on one side the velocity of the
air will be increased and on the other
diminished So the greater pressure
on the slow side will shove the ball
against the low pressure on the fast
side. Now. throwing Il ball in the air
is the same as making wind blow
against it; so if 4 ball be thrown and
rotated at the same time it will nee
eSSarily curve.

Brother and Sister

By ARNOLD GRIFFIN

letter that she was in earnest, made no
further attempt to see her.
One afternoon when the coach passed
through Lone Star Gulch stout wOm-
an with q resolute look on her face got
off with her clothes tied up in a bundle
and put up in the only boarding house
in the place. What the woman. who
called herself Mrs. Wilbur, was to do
in this out of the way mining town did
not tranSpire. but there was a surprise
among the citizens when it was known
a few days later that she had gone to
live at the Golfers. The surprise was
occasioned by the fact that Golfer and
his sister had lived entirely alone. new
er receiving any company, and there
was not a family in the gulch where
any one, especially as unattractive a
woman as Mrs. Wilbur. would be less
likely to find board.
The day after the event there were
rumors of high words being heard in
the middle of the night at the Golfers
but as there We're no evidences of trOu-
bic, except for the grim appearance of
Mrs. Wilbur and certain whipped cur
look about Golfer, no one could surmise
what had occurred-that is. no one but
Ralph Mccain. who got his eXplana-
ton in this wise:
Having need to go to a neighbOring
!! town for some blasting material, he set
out early in the morning and was re-
tIp in, ba of+ l.
Sarah Golfer on the road.
where are you going?" asked Nc
Cam when they met.
From the man with whom l have
been living
"Your brOther?'
Il supposed he was my husband"
replied Sarah. with tremOr in her
voice. but ! was deceived He had Il
wife before he married me- His name
is James Wilbur, and his wife has ap-
peared with proofs of her marriage"
| Mccain sat for few minutes thun-
derStruck. first incenSed at the wrong
that had been done the woman he
loved, then a JOY yelling up in his
/ heart that there was no insurmOunta-
bic barrier between them.
$50 this is the reason You chung to
Golfer. You supposed You were his
wife. Why did you pass as brother
and sister,"
Gle forced me to it. making pre-
tended confession after we were mar
ried that he had been involved in I'M
| fortunate business transactions that
would cause criminal prosecution if he
was found. His real reason was to
avoid his wife, who would be less like
~ to trace one living with Il sister
than wife"
what are you going to do now?'
| "Get away from him.

Neither Ralph Mccain nor Sarah

ever seen in Lone Star Gulch again.

SAFE TOLLS BELL
LIoyd's Rings News When Over
due Vessel Is Reported.
10Y SOUNDER" HAS HISTORY.
Recovered From a Wrecked English
Ship Captured by the Dutch In 1879,
1t Now Spreads Its Cheer In the Liz
brary of the Company.

The bell at Lloyd's, which is rung
when ship long overdue and reported
lost Unexpectedly reaches port, is one
of the sensation bells of the world. 1t
is of naval origin. 1t belonged to the
Lutine, which was wrecked near the
Zuyder Zee in October, 1879, while
taking specie from English merchants
to Hamburg, says London Tit-Bits.
England being then at war with the
Netherlands, the Dutch government
claimed the wreck, and $4,000 worth
of the bullion was recovered. 1t was
not until 1851 that Lloyd's secured
equal rights in the treasure with pri-
vate company to which the Dutch had
gained concessions.
III 1853, with considerable quantities
of specie, the frigate's bell was recov-
cred, Since then it has stood in the
library at Lloyds, together with
chair and table made from the Lu-
tines rudder.
There is room at Lloyds known as
the chamber of horrors, and here are
posted kilograms received reporting
| casualties. Unimportant accidents are
not entered in the loss book, but the
most serious are not only entered
there, but are cried aloud by an Off
cial who stands in gorgeous uniform
beneath the sounding board.
When after a weeks disappearance
| it is feared q vessel has gone down the
owners make an application to the
committee at Lloyds to have the ship
posted.
This is done by affixing q notice in
the chamber of horrors which says
that the authorities would be glad OF
information concerning the boat.
A week elapseS, and then a second
notice is put up saying that the boat
has not since been heard of. When
| you read that q ship has been posted"
as missing YOU may know this ship is
| upon the notice board, and on that day
all who were upon her are legally con-
| Sidered dead,
When a ship is posted the old Lutine
| bell is tOlled once In the very I'M
usual event of a vessel arriving in port
after being posted the bell is struck
twice. and the caller makes his an
nouncement from the rostrum amid a
GREATNESS SILENCE.

BIRD "RINGING" REVIVED.
Swallow Liberated In England Waa
Found In Natal

Results of the greatest interest to
bird lovers are being obtained from
the ringing of birds, which is now
being carried on on large scale, says
the London Chronicle. Some $4,000 Of
these rings have been affixed, and the
bird wearerS are being recaptured in
places far remote from the spot where
they were "ringed."
At a farmhouse on the Roodeyand
farm, about eighteen miles from
Utrecht, in Natal, a swallow was
caught bearing on its leg a metal label
with the words: "Witherby, High Hol-
born, London" and the number Il.
$50. The ring was sent TO England
and has been identified by Mr.. Wither-
by as one which was placed on an
adult swallow ct ROsehill, Cheadle,
StaffOrdshire, by ]. X. b. Masefeld,
nearly two years before.
The bird, which thus made journey
of some 5000 miles, was one Of pair
which nested in Nr. Masefield's porch,
and the other bird was ringed at the
same time. Mr.. Masefield at the same
time ringed two other birds, and one
of these returned to nest in bis porch
in the following summer.

Sailors Queer Customs,

The sailors broad collars were de-.
vised so that the powder or tar on the
wearerS' cues should not come off on
the blouses. In those days every sailor
wore his hair in a cue and either had
the cue powdered or held together by
tar. This was not good for the blouse
or jacket underneath. SO detachable
broad collars were added Sailors stop
ped wearing cues a century ago. But
they still wear the wide collar. When
Lord Nelson died the British navy
went into mourning for him. Sailors
put broad black ribbons on their caps
and black ribbons on their blouses.
And the ribbons remain TO this day not
only on the uniforms Of British sailors,
but on those Of other navieS as WE'LL

Horns Are Out of Place on Dairy Cows
and Often Lead to Injury.

Horns on a dairy COW are COM
mon source of serious injury, eSpe-
cially to udders belonging to other
cows in the herd. Unless the cow is
to be used for show ring purposes,
by all means remove her horns. This
is most successfully done when she
is young calf.
Simply clip away the hair surround
ing the small buttons that are the flu
ture horns and rub on caustic potash
until the skin bleeds slightly. If the
work is properly done dent can he
felt in the skull after q few days and
no horns will ever develop. Dehorning
of grown animals should be done in
fall or winter, when there are no flies
to bother the wound The horns are
removed by the use of clippers or a
saw. If the horns have not been taken
