Little Know Race.

In the extreme north of the Russian
province OF A%rchangel dwells one of
the queerest and least known races of
mankind. These are the Samoyedes
the wandering tribes Of the vast froz-
en- marshes which extend In these re-
gions from the forest belt to the shores
OF the Arctic ocean. They worship
idols and their sole wealth consists In
reindeer. Living. the reindeer draws
the sledge which transports the Same
yede and his belongings from spot to
spot in search of the game and fish.
which constitute his principal susie
nance. Dead, II provides him with
meat In times of scarcity, and with
skin for his family tent. With Its
~sharrened bones he tips his wooden
fishing harpoons and hunting spears.
Its sinews he uses to sew together
the shirt. breeches, and boots of seal
skin, which r the attire alike Of the
samoyede men, women and children.

ROMANCE OF WORDS
CONFETTI"

CIGNIFYING literally con
~ ~fectionery," this Italian
word was originally applied to
the small hard bon-bons former
ly thrown during the carnival
days In Rome, Naples and other
cities in the southern section Of
Europe. These candies r
known as coriandoli, and the
term confetti is applied to the
cheaper and more popular sub
stitutes-hard pellets about the
size of a hailstone which r
carried In bags by the masked
jewellers and thrown from tin
ladies'.
The custom of throwing con-
fetti was introduced into France
several centuries ago, and was
especially popular at the fetes
of Mi-Careme (Mid-Lent) and
Mardi-Gras (Shrove Tuesday,.
But the French, possibly be-
cause they took their pleasure
less seriously than the Italians,
substituted bits of gaily colored
paper for the hard pebbles or
candies. and when the custom
was introduced into the United
States by the French settlers OF
Louisiana and other sections.
confetti was understood to mean
only the scraps of paper.
The amount of confetti used
in Paris Is apparent from an
account of one of the Mardi-
Gras celebrations, when it was
estimated by n of the local
newspapers that 100000
pounds were sold during the
three days preceding Ash We'd
nesday. At an average price
of twenty cents Il pound. some
$4,000 o wis spent upon this
form of amusement alone.

EMULATEDIAMONDDICK

Two young gentlemen of the mature age of 12 and 13 tired of their home life in Gallup recently, and decided a la the Diamond Dick her. oes, to see the world. They went as far as Seligman, and then doubled back on their trail. In Holbrook Night Marshal Frank Buck picked them up one morning in the cold gray dawn when things did not look so romantic and adventurous. They were re- turned to their homes in Gallup not much the worse for wear, with the exception of their clothes. We wond- CT if it was mere wanderlust or the imminence of the school session which started them on their peregrina- tions?

SOME PICNIC AND
 SOME EATS

At least we have the word of enc of the men who at- tended to that effect, and we are willing to admit that masculine taste in the mat ter of eats is usually pretty good. The picnic was held out near the Painted Desert last Monday evening. The following families were pre- sent: Axline, Hookway, Hulet, and Branigan, to- gether with Messrs Toelle and Austin.
 Mir. Hookway said that the Desert was red when they arrived but they got busy and painted in another color, but he did not tell us whether or not MT. Toelle found one of his "a ttlesnakes thathe struck up an acquain- tance with on account of its proximity at the Snake Dance. Of course we mere ly suppose he struck up a friendship with the snake, as he told us he got so close to it that he could see the white of its eyes. By the way, is there any white ina snakes eye? Or is there green in ours?
 Anyhow the picnic was a great success.

Lad, Asleep, Steals Ride
 on Front of Locomotive

Hammonton, N. J.-When a Pennsylvania railroad bridge train from Atlantic City passed through here at high speed last night the motionless form of a lad was seen on the front of the engine. When the train stopped at Broad street station, Philadelphia, railroad officials found the body of a boy seven teen years old lying inert on the fore part of the locomotive.
 He was alive, but asleep, and had made the ride, almost 70 miles, in this dangerous position, sometimes rushing through the darkness at 70 miles an hour.
 The passenger was Frederick Herbert of Shawnee, Okla, hOmeward bound without the formality of paying regular rates. The Philadelphia police took the nervy lad in tow.
