Quite Licked.

There is an old raftsman on the Susquehanna river whose proud boast it is that he has never been whipped in a fight. This means a good deal, for the sturdy rattsmen are all splendid specimens. Fights over the most trivia) matters are of daily occurrence. “Ole Dan,” as he is called, says the New York Journal, has now grown very feeble and rheumatic, but he is never tired of recounting his exploits as a fighter when he was a young man. The old fellow always stoutly affirms that he has never been licked, but after a good deal of pressing lie can sometimes remember that he once came very near being soundly thrashed. "Yes, sir, the nearest I came to being whipped was over twenty years ago. I was carting a load of logs up to the mill one powerful hot day in August The sun was a-shining fit to sizzle your brains. As I was goln'alongside of a wood which threw a shadow Just half way across the road I met a man in a buggy coming straight at me.

“ ‘Turn out,’sez he.

“ ‘Turn out into the sun yourself,’ sez

L

“Well, after that we came to words, IJimeby we came to blows. "We fit till the sun went down and then I turned out.” "Oh, you did turn out for him then, Dan?” "Yes, when the sun went down the shadow was all over the road. I didn't, care then. That was the nearest I ever came to being whipped.”

A certain young man living on the North side went out to call the other evening upon a young woman of his acquaintance whom he especially delighted to honor. He was quite a young man, says the Chicago Tribune, and his experience with florists had been neither deep nor varied. It occurred to him, however, on this particular evening to stop at a flower mcr

the pretty girl towards whose home he was wending his way. "Give me a bunch of roses," he said, carelessly, to the man of nosegays. “Yes, sir; how many, please?” “O, a couple of dozen or so.” In a-few moments they were ready, and the purchaser was feeling in his vest pocket for a two-dollar bill to pay for them. "How much?” he asked before the bill made its appearance. “Eighteen dollars, sir," replied the florist’s assistant, with what his hearer said afterward seemed diabolical glibness. The young man felt giddy for a moment. He had unwittingly selected roses that were seventy-five cents apiece. But, as has been said, he was very young, and it seemed to him a very serious tiling to go down before that flower clerk. So he paid his money and took his bouquet, “and,” ho says, “I spent the next hour watching a pretty girl nibble and chew up eighteen dollars’ worth of

roses.”

When the party got back to England Sulli van it aa informed of some remarks Jenks had made at the ring reflecting upon his professional ability, and he swore that he would make Jenks eat his words. That evening Sullivan, half under the influence of liquor, visited the Empire theater, and Jenks was pointed out to him on the promenade. The prize fighter went to the gambler, who is about five feet six inches tall, and began; “You’re the fellow that backed Mitchell against me.” “Well,” retorted Jenks, sharply, "if somebody didn’t put up the money for you loafers to fight for you’d have to work fora living.” Sullivan did not pursue the conversation further, and when it was intimated to Jenks that ho had narrowly escape a thrashing he said: “Why, there were twenty men hanging around there who are borrowing anywhere from a shilling to a sovereign a day from me, and they would be so eager to prove their gratitude that if that big ruffian had ever laid ids hands on me they’d have killed him.”

Is the cause of that tired, languid feeling

country prior to that time. This is how It happens that the money appears to be so unevenly divided. In some instances but few members of a family tire living, while in other cases many descendants are living. The department has had considerable trouble in perfecting the roll, as a few of those entitled to share this money now live in California. Nearly all live in the Cherokee nation. With those in the nation it has been a difficult matter to determine in many instances whether or not an individual is entitled to share the money. The work of perfecting the rolls has delayed payment for more

titan a year.

While the Indians receive only $000,000, the entire claim is $800,000. The $‘100,000 is taken up by attorneys’ fees, which are paid direct to the attorneys. Over 83 years ago the Indians interested in this claim executed a contract with W. J. Bryant, of Tahlequah, giving him 25 per cent, of all the money he could get out of the combination of claims. He commenced work on the matter and is now 78 years old and very feeble, but he is expected to make another trip here to get his $300,000 and divide it with attorneys he has employed in the case. It is understood that he has given contracts to attorneys and officials covering about $150,000, thus leaving him but $50,000. But this division was thought by him necessary to bring about a final settlement, and, as estimated, it never would have been paid had he not been able to deal out some money where it would have the effect of securing action. In addition to this $200,000 given over to attorneys and for other purposes, $10,000 is taken out of the fund for exCongressman Heard, of Missouri, by an act of congress. Mr. Heard 'was employed in the ease some time before lie was elected to congress, and did the work that entitled him to the fee of $10,000. The payment of his fee was recommended by’ the present officials in the department, and Mr. Heard concluded that it would be just as safe to have congress set apart ids fee as it would to leave the matter in the hands of the department officials. Accordingly he had an act passed covering the matter and making sure his fee. lie gets his fee out of the claim, and it is taken out in addition to the $200,000 that is given to Bryant and divided

with others.

MOLASSLS TO BURN.

Planters Have Millions of Gallons and

They Want a Furnace Invented.

There are twenty-five million gallons of molasses stored in tanks on the various sugar plantations throughout the state, says the New Orleans Times-Dem-ocrat, that is an elephant on the sugar planters’ hands. They do not know what to do with it. They cannot sell it, for any profit in sight would bo eaten up in transportation. Besides, it would require a cool half million dollars to barrel it, and putting this sum and the freight charges together, when the present price of molasses is taken into consideration, *iio shipper would find that he would be out of pocket

after his labor was concluded.

The question of what disposition to make of this molasses is a knotty one to the sugar planters, and at the last two meetings of their association no other subject has been discussed. The planters say that it is a problem that has to solved, for before the next crop is taken off this surplus molasses has to be got rid of in order to make room for the new crop. Heretofore the stuff has been dumped into the river or swamps. In the latter method it has been found that the molasses sours and makes life disagreeable to thyse living five miles away, while in dumping it into the river or streams, people living on the

bunks complain of it as a nuisance.

It is being fed to stock, but from statistics there is not enough stock by onethird on thc various plantations to consume it. Suggestions have been made to distill it into alcohol, but the planters find that it would require such an outlay of money to erect a distillery to distil fine alcohol so as to compete with the worlds markets that it would not pay. It has also been suggested that, as molasses is excellent stock food, it be shipped to central distributing points where stock is raised in large numbers—Texas, for instance—by means of tank cars. This suggestion has met with favor, and some day* the experiment may be tried. The only solution, however, in sight seems to be the discovery' of some way in which the molasses can be burned as fuel. When this problem is solved the planters believe that molasses will then bo valuable. Experiments have been tried in burning molasses as fuel, and they have been successful, but it has been on such a small scale that it will not pay in its present crude form. What the planters want is for an in-

The Interesting Opcnttlon* of the GIhss.

Blowers.

Those who taka an interest in taxidermy wiB lie glad to know how birds’

eyes made.

A visitor to a small factory in New T ork found two glassblowers at this work. One held a bar of clear glass in the flame of a gas blow-pipe, and worked a lump of fused glass around the end of a wire and then pressed it into a mold. When he drew it out of the mold, a crystal eyeball ornamented the end of the wire. This he passed to hi* companion, who t<s>k a thin bar of yellow glass, and heating it, worked it into the crystal hall, forming a round, glowing eye on thc end of the wire. As the glass cooled the yellow iris showed more plainly, and by the time it was cold and hard, it appeared as a good-sized owl’s eye, the pupil being a section of the wire on which the glass was heated. While this was going on the first man was busy molding another crystal eye. Later the men took up the work of making dolls' eyes. One molded the clear eyeball, the other worked in the blue or brown iris, as the style might be, precisely as the owl's eyes had been made. The superintendent of the shop said that, while many dolls'eyes were made, the demand was mainly for eyes for taxidermists’ use—cliiefly for stuffed household pets. These were made of all sizes and shapes, to suit the varied requirements of the taxidermist. The largest eyes are made for the moose, the smallest for the trashes. Each variety of birds or animals, when mounted, lias to have eyes modeled from nature, if its natural expression is to be

preserved.

An old miner of Ch'^I. (W*. Ca-A*”*”

who for years has been engaged in prospecting in the Rocky mountains, while talking to a party of friends the other day, gave the following interesting description of gold mining in the far west: "It’s the prettiest work I ever did,” he said. "It’s the fascination of it; when you have struck it pretty rich and see your gold right in front of you, when you are piling it up every hour of the day, with a nugget now and then as big as a bullet to cheer you. And then, when evening comes, you count it up and you find it worth hundreds of dollars, just picked up out of the earth in one day—well, I tell you, there is nothing like it. Then, when you don’t strike it, you always think you are going to the next day; and it is just as exciting hearing other men tell in the evening what they pulled out during the day ns in counting j'our own. Why, I have gone for months at a time without making a dollar, and without a cent in my pocket, but the excitement of the work don’t give a man time to realize how

hard up he is.”

MOVED A TOWN.

The Novel Exodus of the Mormont from Missouri. The most remarkable case of housemoving ever heard of was at Nauvoo, 111. AY hen the Mormons were driven out of Missouri by an armed force they built the town of Nauvoo on the banks of tile Mississippi. Here they erected their temple and constructed a thriving town. Then the Illinois people arose, burned the temple, murdered the prophet, Joseph Smith, and the entire community fled to I'tah. Mennonites from Russia came along and bought the land. They had no use for the three hundred and fifty buildings in the town. They wanted the land to plant vineyards upon. They sold the houses to a Missourian by the name of Boyd for a trifle. ‘ The next winter he began to put rollers under the houses, slid them down the banks to the surface of the frozen river, and then slid and rolled and pushed them six miles up the river and founded the town of Fort Madison, la., all except about forty of the houses which are to-day on the left bank of the river, opposite the site of the extinct town of Nauvoo."

Tree Trunks as Filters on Ships. A well-known Australian engineer, M. Blister, is stated to have discovered a remarkable property of the trunks of trees, namely, that of retaining thc salt of sea-water that has filtered through the trunk in the direction of the fibers. Be has consequently constructed an apparatus designed to utilize this property in obtaining potable water for the use of ships’ crews. This apparatus consists of n pump, which sucks up thc sea water into a reservoir and then forces it into a filter formed by the tree trunk. As soon as the pressure reaches 1.5 to 2.5 atmospheres the water is seen at the end of from one to three minutes, according to the kind of wood used, to make its exit from the other extremity of the trunk, at first in drops and then in fine streams, the water thus filtered being potable, freed, in fact, from every particle of the usual saline taste which is such a drawbaclc to water obtained in the ordinary manner.

On« evening one of the nurses was passing through the dis-secting-room where there were lyingtwo or three empty coffins, and, walking close to one of them, a hand was thrust out from under the lid and caught the girl by her dress, and a voice from within called cut: “I say, where are you going to bury me?” The girt screamed with terror, and fled through the passage, calling for help. Half the house came down around her, and when they heard her story they laughed and chided her; but six; maintained the truth of it so persistently that they repaired in a body to the chamber of hoe^ rors. When they opened the door they saw to their great amazement a man sitting up in a coffin.
