Universal Lanauaae Of Indians.

A white man who visits foreign ma
ton finds it hard, and sometimes Inn
possible, 10 make his most ordinary
wants known. The red man has no
such difficulty; the problem Of a uni
versal language was solved centuries
ago by the savage inhabitants OF this
western world.
Should an Indian from northern
Alaska go to Patagonia, he could by
means Of this universal language con-
verse with his southern brethren al
most as easily as he could with his
neighbOrs at home. That would also
be the case IL he visited Central Amer
ica or met the tribesmen Of our own
western prairies and mountains.
When this language was invented no
one knows, but every Indian learns 1t
In addition to his own. Recently two
chiefs of different tribes met in the
Geographic society rooms in Washing
ton and held conversation that lasted
nearly three hours, and yet neither one
knew a word OF the others language.
) This universal language is, of course.

Says Harvard Professor.

T If you are looking for the right girl,

Cambridge (Mass) correspondent Of

Sargent Of Harvard says afiinities are
often brought together through the
whirl of the dance?
Speaking before a body Of dancing
teachers, DIR. Sargent declared:
"When a young man finds himself in
rhythm with just one girl and finds
that he cannot dance with any other
partner, he has found his rhythmic
mate; he would better stop and think
there are such. things as rhythmic af-

WAS NOT 4couRT OF RECORD
Rural J. p. Explains Why He Burned
Up Papers in Cases Which We're

There wars q time. and It is not so
far back in memory, when Justice Nc

court was prncticing law on the good
citizens of Sufsun, Cal. Evidently he
practiced it to their complete salts
faction. for they up and made him dis
trict attorney Of Salano county, from
which position he rose to his present
exalted one by leaps and bounds. /,
While McKenna was district attor-
ney there arose case In which the
testimony of rural justice of the
peace was necessary, the case having
had It's Inception in his court.
After asking the usual questions as
to his pedigree and previous condition
of servitude, McKenna said: =
"You, Of course, have With you the
; original documents in this case-the
papers?" .,
Z "Land sakes. no.! Amt got no SIGH
papers" was the reply.
"Wel, you must have had such pa
pers," continued McKenna.
:"Reckon did, but 1 amt got 'em
now. burned 'em up.".
"Whatl" demanded McKenna in
amazement. "Do you mean to say you
burned up papers constituting the rec

Gov. Stanley Tells Kentucky
Troops at Fl. Benjamin

Stanley, ofKeatucky, were the guests
Of honor at tbe post yesterday when
the entire officers reserve canton
ment Joined with the boys from tn
Bluegrass State ipextending a hearty
and sentimcntalreception, Thee Gov.
ernor addressed1 the boys after he
reviewed the brigade aparade. with
Gen. Glenn, Cow and Mrs. Goodrich,
of Indiana: Senator and Mrs, James
E. Watson and others. So - !"
AS the Kentucky Governor walked
across the drill grounds with Gen.
Glenn and the other guests the Ken
lucky division arose and sang MY
Old Kentucky Home" in WHICH the
entire cantonment joined. I, :,~' q
In his address Cow Stanley said:N
''How shall l address youP For
the first time in my life / am at loss
to know what terms to use. i cannot
say fellow citizens" for you are
more than that. The language has
not yet coineda word so freighted
with honor, with pride and love such
as is fit to express what1 and the ma
ton feel toward you and for you
our beloved heroes. Looking at your
earnest faces and having watched you
drill; seeing you there in solid phal-
anx, with your rifles ready in your
hand, | only wish the Kaiser was
here.
"Have you ever thought why you
men are here? In 1900 years of civ
ilization brave men have barred their
breasts for the honor of their women,
for the safety of children, for the glo-
ry OF their flag. But never were men
assembled together for more glorious
purpose or at a more opportune time.
We have never declared war upon
any people or any country, but the
President and the Congress have at
last reluctantly had to admit that the
blood-mad Kaiser has, been making
war upon US. Nothing is more sacred
than the rights of hospitality; those
rights have been sacred since the
Greeks worShiped their household
gods, yet il was the Kaiser'S minis,
tiers, our h6nored guests, who, with
in our gates, violated their honor and
betrayed us. Had our Minister
abroad been guilty of such crimes he
would have been taken out and shot
down like adog. and rightly so.
"Since men first went down to the
sea in ships, but one man has been
vain enough to assert the absolute
dominion of the sea, and that man is
the KaiSer.'
He referred to the expressed Ger
man belief that Americans are a ma
ton of money lovers and that no in
suits to their national honor would
win them away from their golden
trough and he said: Before the win
ter's sun STALL rise again we shall
answer these SANDERS with the thun-
der Of our guns and Prussians with
their blood shall bitterly repent the
day they insulted our flag on land
and sea. .'ee ~. 3
In Conclusion Gov Stanley said
that in every battle for liberty. since
this country was founded; the sons of
Kentucky have playeda gallant part. !

than 800 citizens, representing al
most every section of the state, have
