The improvement in drill is apparent, and if it continues as indicated another first prize will come to Indianapolis. Knights of Pythias. Ambrosia Lodge, of Cannelton, will erect a hall this summer. The Indianapolis Drum Corps will accompany the First Regiment to Milwaukee. Applications hare been received for lodges at Elnora, Daviess county, and Xew Market, Montgomery county. Walkerton Lodge was instituted at Walkerton, St. Joseph countv, on Julv 2 by Special Deputy David M. Dutly, of Plymouth. Montezuma Lodge was organized at Montezuma on Thursday, with twentyfour, members, bv J. L. Smith, of Dana, special deputy. Ho was assisted by the officers and members of No. 247. The semi-annual reports from subordinate , lodges show an unusual increase in memberbhip, and it is estimated that the coinpleto returns will show the membership iu Indiana on June 20 to be in excess of 20,000. Oak Leaf Lodge was organized at Richland City, Spencer county, on Jnly 2, by E. D. Ehrman. of Rockport. This is the' lifth lodge for which dispensation, has been granted since the meeting of the Grand Lodge on June 4. Gen. Jas. R. Ross, Col. Ben C. Wright, Col. J. M. Wampler, Col. C. S. Denny, CoL J. M. Storey, Maj. Frank Bowers and several other members of the start' of the Indiana Brigade, Uniform Rank, left for Milwaukee last cvonincr.

O" The several divisions of the Uniform Rank of this city will leave for Milwaukee to morrow night. Thev will be joined here by tho Third. Fourth and part of the Sixth Tegiments, and arrive in a body in Milwaukee on Monday morning. If Indianapolis desires the next session of the Supreme Lodge, in '92, the committee appointed to present the invitation extended should show some evidences of earnestness. Omaha, Xeb., will be represented before the supreme body by a committee readv to promise almost anything. Xebraska has seven thousand members, and wants the meeting as well as the election of candidates from that State for official position. The Xobraskans claim great increase and prosperity. Indiana has had a net increase in membership in excess of Nebraska's entire membership in the last three years. Indiana is in the best possible locality, and can accomodate all visitors. By going to Omaha the attendance will be greatly reduced, and the expenses oi the Supreme Lodge greatly increasd. Sons of America. Washington Camp, of Connersville, has moved into & hall that was formerly occupied by the Odd-fellows. Camp Xo. 9, at Brownsville, had six appliplications for membership the first meeting night after the camp was instituted. Any one desiring information fn regard to the order can obtain it by addressing State Secretary Will A. Eshbacb, Xo. 117 West Maryland street, city, or Thomas W. Langton, Connersville. Camp No. 8 has initiated three candidates into the Red degree and received two propositions for membership.

Ho bought about three bun-, dred dollars' worth of Oolongs, Young Hysons, English Breakfasts, etc While the goods were being nut up I undertook to show him through the houss, and in the conrse of our wanderings we came to a speaking tube. This was a marvel to Mr. ermonter, and I had to explain to him how it was we conld speak from tho sixth lloor, on which we were at tho time, to a man on the tirst floor. To illustrate my words I called up our shipping clerk and asked him: "Have you put up thoso goods for Mr. Vermonter," and with this I slipped from the tube and put it to the ear of my customer. The result was not what I anticipated. " 'Much obliged, sir; you can cancel my order' said ho to me. " 'What's tho matter!' says I. " 'O nuthiu' aays ho, and oil' he started for the elevator. " 'What did yon say just now!' I asked the shipping clerk, in haste. " I said I am waiting for an answer fromv Bradstreet's on him: I understand he is a slippery old cuss, and needs watching.' "

A 3IODEKN HIGHWAYMAN. A Man Who Combines Dick Turpin and Jack SheppardPall Mall Gazette. An interesting account is given by the Johannesburg fttar of the police chase after McKeon, the bank robber, whose achievements in the matter of perpetrating robberies, escaping from jail and eluding the police entitle him to rank with the notorious. lack heppard, and whose regard for his clever black horse reminds one of Dick Turpin. In the hurried start after McKeon when ho escaped from the Pretoria jail, says the newspaper m qnestion, the mounted police forgot to take handcuffs with them. Further, McKeon had friends all along the route. He was born in Basutoland, and every Basuto is his fast friend, even to Mama. Consequently, when the police inquired along the road of Basntosif the j' had seen two men pass on horseback they invariably said thev had not. McKeon's love for hisfamous black horse, now at the mounted police barracks, was extraordinary. The police had to have three remounts before they could run that horse down. Two of the mounted police sighted McKeon and Cooper far ahead of them. They spurred on after them, thinking that they would bring the fugitives to halt on the steep bank of the Kheuoster river. Wrhat was their surprise, however, when they saw McKeon leap his horse clown the twenty-foot bank into the river, swim across, and, when he saw Cooper's horse would not follow, come hack, and, reaching out, pull Cooper's horse down by tho bridle and drag him through. One of the policemen had a rifle and resolved to take a long shot. When McKeon saw the smoke of the gun rise be and his companion drew their horses apart and the bullet passed between them. Shortly after, McKeon drew his hor&o up. leaned down, removed the saddle and stood patting his horse on the head. Tho police approached and he surrendered without a word, giving over his two revolvers with the remark that ho was enriching the government with revolvers, for this was the sixth they had had from him. He said he gave himself np because he did not wish to kill his horse. Cooper handed over his revolver, too, looking rather glum. McKeon said he knew he would receive twenty-live lashes, but he would only stay in jail for eight months, when he would onco more say good-byo to the authorities. He did not know why they had given him twonty-tive years, for be had not murdered any one nor stolen a sheep or ox. Bobbing a oank of their surplus money was no crime. Tho police were entirely taken ott their guard, and consequently at daybreak the next morning the birds had flown unobserved by them. McKeon has sinco been recaptured at Ladybraud. A WESTERN SHERIFF'S COURAGE. Locking Himself in a Corridor with Five Prisoners to Subdue Them. New York Tribune. "I think the bravest man I ever knew," said the Colonel, "was one of the worst. His name was Kit Castle, and for some years, so long ago that my hair grows grayer when I think of it, he was sheriff of Uintah county, Wyoming. Kit had his own peculiar code of morals like a good many other Western men of that day. He borrowed money in the most reckless fashion, but he always paid it back to tho last cent. Ho never broke a promise. But ho would cheat at cards at every opportunity. He couldn't help it. Every one knew that he cheated, but no man was ever bold enough to say so in his face, for Castle was not afraid of anything that walked or crawled, and he was a dead shot every time his big ringer pressed the trigger. He was over six feet in height, a lion iu strength, and a tieer when in a rage. "He started out alone on horseback once when ho wassberilt to capture two horse thieves. He was gone for a week, and peoplo began to think that Kit had got the worst of a hard tight, when he rode into town one evening and stalked up to a bar. "Whero are your men. Kit!' someone asked with a laugh, thinking they had slipped him. "The sheriff pulled from his belt three revolvers and laid them down. Then he went out to his horso and, unfastening two pair a of spurs from the saddle, vcame back and threw them jingling and ringing on tho bar counter. " 'One of thora revolvers is mine,' said Kit slowly. Ali the rest is souvenirs' sooveueers,' he pronounced it. I had sixty miles to ride back, and I hadn't tho time to lead two horses with the corpses of two horse thieves tied on their backs.' That was all ho ever said about the tight. "Perhaps a more villainous set of scoundrels was never collected than tho prisoners whom Castle always had in the county jail. Tho jail was of stone, and was at the rear of the court-house. Inside the place was lined with sheet-iron, and along the end ran the heavily-barred cells. One evening tbo sheriff' went into the jail to see if his prisoners wcro all right for the night. One of them had gotten out of his cell, and had theu released four other desperadoes. When Kit opened the door into the jail the men started for him with a rush. Kit had time to spring through the door and close it, and his prisoners would have been as secure in the iron-walled corridor as in their cells. But the sight of the five men maddened him, and he threw the door shut with a lond elans:, locking himself in the room with the otbera.. "Drawing his' revolver ho leaped at the men, bellowing iu his anger, He was too enraged to shoot them. He wanted to punish them for daring to attack him. His strength and energy were tremendous, and he hurled the live men into one of the iron corners. Pushing them and knocking them about, ho beat them over the head and shoulders, and arms with the butt of his revolver until they screamed at the top of their voices in their helpless agonv. Then, his teeth shut close together in his great jaw, he picked them up one by one and pitched them into their colls, securely fastening the bolts. "Such daring and recklessness as his could only belong to a man who did not know the name of physical fear. He was a born lighter, and as a soldier in a battle wonld havo been remorselessly fierce. But he had one enemy stronger than he. Whisky snapped his life when he was in his prime. it X WILD GOOSE PATROL. Armed Herders Defending Wheat-Fields from Endless Flocks of Geese and Ducks. New York Sun. "It may sound funny to people in tho East to be told that to protect the grain crops in some of the California counties from wild ducks and geese the farmers havo to employ a large forco of what are known as herders to patrol tho tields and shoot, club and destroy, and frighten away by various means the enormous flocks of these ravenVms fowl that sweep down on the youug and growing grain and dovour it. but such is the fact." said James E. Palen. a large grower of wheat in the Sacramento valley. "The ravaging swarms of ducks and gecso begin their work of destruction early iu the fall, as soon as the wheat begins to sprout. Tho fowl invade the country along the rivers, but they do not tarry thero an hour after tho rains have made tho wheat plains habitable for them. 1 have seen a track of Bevcnlyftve acres in Colusa countv absolutelv covered with wild geese, so densely packed as to resemble pictures I have seen of seabird rookeries on some ocoan rock. Wbeu they tirst come they wax fat on tho wheat stubble, and are juicy and sweet-ilavored for the table, but when the young winter wheat appears they work on tho green

sprouts. This has tho effect of making their flesh rank, and no one in any of tho wild-goose-ridden districts will eat of theso fowls then. They are shipped by the thou sand, all the same, to San Francisco and other markets all winter long, where the people seem to think the green-wbeat-fed birds are a great delicacy. But if the markets conld take ten times as many as they do the number would be small compired with the thousands and thousands ct the destructive fowls that are killed and left lying on tho ground. Tolo county, where I live, especially in i$s northern part. I once thought, conld beat all creation as a feeding place for wild geese, for I have seen these flocks 60 thick in tho air, going to and from their favorite pasture, that only few-and-far-between glimpses of the sky could bo obtained for an hour at a time. But when I went into Colusa county I made up my mind that I had never seen wild geeso enough before to speak ot. There is a larce expanse of barren plain in that county, which affords an unrivaled place of rendezvous for both geese and ducks, and I have seen those barrens when I thought that all the wild geese that went, forth to all pr rts of the land, near and remote, must surely have their starting place on the Colusa county barrens. They may be 6een rising up from the plains in swarms like the locusts of Egypt, and going forth in all directions to prcv on tho farmers. They remain all winter long, and the wheat the farmers cut in harvest they have had to light the geese and ducks for months to retain. "There are many large wheat ranches in these- two counties, such as the Glenn ranch, the Bogg, and others. From twelve to twenty-tivo herders are employed by each of the big ranches to patrol the wheatfields and wage continual warfare against the geese and ducks. These herders live in cabins scattered about the ranches, and tramp about the tields from daylight until dark, and long after night, too. if the moon is shining, for both geese and ducks feed on tho wheat-fields at night if it is moonlight. Ducks are more troublesome than geese at night, and it was discovered accidentally. a few years ago that a light in a field would frighten them away. Lanterns were placed in large numbers among the wheat, and for a long time the fowl were so shy of the bright lights that the farmers were benefited. At last, however, the ducks became used to the lanterns, and grew so bold as to feed by their light. 'The small farmers in the wheat district, being nnable to individually employ herders, have combined in a sort . of mutual herding association, and pay for patrol protection out of a common fund, many of the farmers doing herder duty themselves.

A BANDIT OF TONQUIN. Youthful Lun-Ky and the Vast Store of Gold He Has Stolen. Correspondence of the Chicago News. Lun-Ky is a desperado who leads a bandit horde in the mountain fastnesses near Dongtrien, in Tonquin. He is twenty years of age, is of commanding stature and singular ferocity, and has operated so actively during the last two years as to have. become an object of terror throughout that part of the country. Unrequited love impelled the youth to adopt this lawless life. Twoj'ears ago ho was a reputable lad, apprenticed to a saddler, and assiduous in his attentions to the daughter of one of tho local magistrates. This girl, however, suddenly wedded an old and rich neighbor, and Lun-Ky disappeared from Dong-trien and blazed into notoriety as the boldest bandit chief in Tonquin. It is the ambition of the misguided youth to acquire so great possessions as to occasion his old and fickle inamorata severe heart-burnings. The riches which Lun-Ky has amassed in two 3Tears exceed the bounds of credulity. Somewhat of a dandy in his tastes, he wears gorgeous silks and feathers, and covers his bosom with a net-work of gold; his weapons are of the finest quality, and include in theircategory jeweled scimeters, cboliy-stock carbines and ivory-hilted poniards. Two months ago the brothers Koque and M. Costa, three Frenchmen temporarily residing in Tonquin, wero captured by Lun-Ky's band. As soonns M. Briffaud, the French consul at Dong-trien, heard of this outrage he applied himself industriously to securing the release of the captives, but the brigands, with whom intercourse was finally opened, demanded an exhorbitant ransom, nor wonld they accede to any compromise. One day, therefore, the consul, accompanied by the village priest and attended by an escort of French marines, repaired to the mountains, bearing the required ransom. Having reached a lonely spot, supposed to havo been about five miles from the bandit camp, this little company was halted before a bamboo post upon which was hung an inscription saving that the troops must not go further without parley. About this time Lun-Ky himself appeared in the distance and announced that the consul and the priest should proceed together, leaving: the marines behind. It was another Hobsun choice. So the troops remained, and the consul and the priest went forward with the beasts bearing the ransom. Beaching the assigned place, two miles distant, the ransom was carefully inspected and counted. It consisted of 100 pieces of silk, twelve watches ifnd .ST0,000 in coin; Lun-Ky obiected to the silk because it was not, as no complained, of t he best quality. But the consul, speaking through the priest as interpreter, represented that tho silk was the very best that could be obtained in Tonquin, and finally the chieftain was persuaded. Then the captives were delivered up, the' bandits to tho number of 400 kneeling all the while in a circle, with loveled rihVs, ready to fire at the first signal. As soon as the consul, the priest and the released men disappeared down tho hillside tbo bandits 6truck camp and made off with proper haRte. The ransomed men say that Lun-Ky is reverenced by his fellow-bandits as an inspired being, and that his authority as chieftain is absolute. Lun-Ky has kindly given it out that as soon as the number of his followers has reached soven hundred he will swoop down upon his native village, capture his old sweetheart and strangle her venerable husband, first, however, cutting off tho latter's ears and nose, this being a particularly humiliating' offense in China. This announcement has occasioned a distinct feeling of uneasiness in certain quarters. CARING IOR THE PENNIES. A Novel Plan Adopted by a Detroit Savings Dank. Fprinpfield Union. The Detroit Savings Bank has adopted a plan which is novel . in this country, but is in uso in the postal-savings system in Europe, for gathering little savings and bringing the advantages of tho bank within the easy reach of everybody. Agencies are selected in various parts of tho city, such as drug stores, groceries and other reputable places, where adhesive labels of different denominations and colors, resembling postago stamps, will bo sold. Cards corresponding in color with tho labels will be furnished, upon which the depositors will atlix the label, as they are purchased, until the twenty spaces on tba cards are filled. For instance, suppose that a depositor determines to save 5 cents per week. He is furnished with a card, corresponding in color with the 5-cent labels. He purchases the label weekly at tho nearest agency and allixes it to the card. When the card is full it is worth 1 and ia then sent to a savings bank for deposit, when the amount is eutered upon the usual deposit-book. Labels will bo for various convenient denominations, making tho cards, when filled, even amounts, as l, $2, So, and so on. It is expected that the agents will do the work as a labor of love and publio benefit, though small commissions may bo paid. This system brings the savings bank to tho people who need it most. We have iS-cent savings hanks now, but comparatively few people will take the trouble to go to tho bank to deposit a few cents. It will be a very easy matter, however, to go to the nearest drng store or grocery and purchase rho label, and the method involves no risk, except that of keeping tho depositcard safe till it is filled. Napoleon's Knowledge of Civil Law. New York Ledger. Dnring tho long and difficult discussions in drawing up the Code Napoleon. French jnrists and statesmen wcro astonished ' at tho familiarity shown by the Emperor with the principles of Komau law. He told them, one day. that when he was a young lientenant, he was sent to solitary confinement for somo slight breach of discipline. "Tho room had no furniture, only an old chair and a dusty cupboard, in which I fo find ono I ponderous, musty, worm-eaten volume. It j was a Digest of the Koraau Law. In those ten nays ot my imprisonment I had nothing else to do but to become saturated with Justinian and the words of Bomau legislators and judges. Thus I acquired my knowledge of the principles of the civil law." Watches, diamonds and Jewelry, at Marcy's.

"JO" DAY1E3S. A Notable Kentucklan Who Figured From lnently in Early Indiana History. Philadelphia American. A notable American who has been restored to notice by Mr. Adams's "History of Jefferson's Administration" is that picturesque Kentucky lawyer and leader, Jo" Daviess. It was he who, in November. lbOC, began the legal assault on Aaron Burr by moving the United States District Court of Kentucky for an order to compel Burr to appear and answer to the charge of levying war against ajiation with which tho United States" was at 'peace. He was then United States district attorney, and his procedure was eminently fit. But the judge, lnnis, was against him, the administration 1 Jefferson J gave him no support, the witnesses who could havo proved his case disappeared or failed to say in court what they had been asserting outside, and Burr was represented by Henry Clay and countenanced bj-.-the community at Frankfort, and t bore himself with his nsual 6nave Confidence. He was then on his way down theihicvDn his famous expedition, and Dareisa! -proposed to nip the' affair in the bud.. , ; This Kentuckyiassailant of Burr is Scornmemorated in four counties of the United States in Kentucky, Indiana, and Missouri, by counties named-Daviess, and in Illinois by Jo Daviess., county. The difference in spelling will, be noticed, and iu a recent review in a . prominent New York journal, it was assumed that there was an error in Mr. Adams's work, which uniformly prints the name Daveiss. The fact is that this was the way Major Daveiss spelled it himself; and it is so printed in the histories and 1 auuals of Kentucky Humphrey Marshall, .Collins, and others, Collins expressly remarking on the fact that in giving his name to the county of that State, in 19lr. the positions of the e and i were reversed! without authority,' this being also done in-lhe other States. Daveiss was a companion figure for Crockett. He used to shoulder his rilie and walk from town to town dressed in the ordinary garb of a Western .hunter, to attend the sessions of the courts; in such a costume, indeed, he often appeared before the judge and jury. Yet he was the first lawyer from the West who ever appeared in the Supreme Court of tho United States, at Washington, in 1801 or 2 and ho won his case, taking at once a high rank in tho legal lists of that day. Ho was then under thirty years old. It was perhaps a result of this visit to the capital that he married Anno Marshall, the sister of the Chiefjustice. Of these Marsballs, who were the children of Colonel Thomas, of Oak Hill in Farquier county, Virginia, and who gallantly helped Washington at Brandywiue, there were no less than fifteen, seven sons and eight daughters, all remarkable people. Chief-justice John was the oldest, and the wife of Major Davis was tho youngest. Another sister, Mary Ann ("Polly''), who was blind a large part of her life, married her first cousin, Humphrey Marshall, and taught him, it is said, to read; afterward ho fought a famous duel with Henry Clay, became a Senator of the United States and wrote a history of Kentucky largely confined, it must be said, to a justification of his political career. The Daveiss family were froml Virginia. The father, Joseph, and the mother, Jean were respectively Irish and Scotch, as the tradition goes, though the probability is great that Daveiss is simply a differently spelled form of Davis, and that Joseph was Welsh. They left Bedford county, Virginia, when their eon, Joseph Hamilton, "was about five years old," and, as he was born March 4, 1774, this must havo been in 1779, in the midst of the revolutionary struggle. They were resolute and hardy people, for as they crossed the Cumberland river the mother was thrown from her horse and had her arm broken, yet she paused only long enough to have it bound up, with the rude skill that her companions possessed, remounted, and carried her child on the saddle before her. The boy grew up near Danville, in eastern Kentucky, and obtained a tolerable education. Studying law under George Nicholas.' then esteemed the first lawyer of the State, he -was a companion of Jesse Bledsoe, Felix Grundy, and others of prominence in their day, and showed abilities equal to any. Ho was admitted to the bar in 1795. and in his first case vanquished his distinguished preceptor, who was counsel for the opposite party. He had been at the bar but a year or two when John Adams A appointed him district attorney. " Whether his forefathers wero from Wild Wales or Green Erin, Daveiss was plainly a Celt in temperament. At eighteen he volunteered in tho expedition under Maj. Alexander Adair against the Indians north of the Ohio, and narrowly escaped with his life from an adventure at Fort St. Clair, in which he rescued his horse from tho very clutches of the Iudians, and came back to his companions amid a shower of rifle-balls. Inl79yhe was a "second" 'to John Ko wan in a duel (in which -the latter's antagonist was killed), and afterwarddefendedKowan successfully in court. The episode of the Burr proceedings was doubtless the most conspicuous atlair of his life, and all the accounts declare that he made a good fight, his speeches sutlering nothing by comparison with those of Clay. Finally, he closed his career consistently, and secured his place in tho annals of Kentucky. In 1809 he had fixed his home at Lexington (having previously lived at Danville), and when tho war of 1812 broke out he had a

large practice. Ho was employed, the chronicler says, "in nearly every important case." But when Harrison's expedition

expediti against the Indians on the Wabash was organizing, in 1811, ho ottered himself as a volunteer. Harrison appointed him major of a mounted regiment, the "dragoons" of that day, and at Tippecanoe, ou the 11th of November, he was fatally shot. Ho received his wound in a charge in the early morning, and lingered till midnight. Daveiss was nearly six feet in height, very active in his movements, a typical orator and leader of the Blue-grass region. A lively and wittycompanion.be still was spoken of as grave and dignified in his manner, very conrteous to those whom he esteemed, and quite the reverse to those he disliked. Among those ho did not love was Thomas Jefferson, for he was a stanch Federalist, and was profoundly displeased with the course of the latter in regard to Burr, as may be learned from his pamphlet published in 1S07, "A View of tho President's Conduct Concerning tho Conspiracy of 1800." THE NILE'S SOURCKS. A Discovery with Which Henry M. Stanley's Name Is Not Associated. Colonel Chaille-LoiiK. In IIarjers Weekly. In the month of January, 1858, Capt. John Hnnning Speke. attached to the expedition of the distinguished captain, now Sir Bichard Burton, reached the southern extremity of the great inland sea. situated south of the equator, which he called the Victoria Nyanza. Speke's discovery was, however, incomplete, many geographers claiming that the river which flowed out. of the lake in the north was not ncr could not be tho Nile. Speke endeavored to trace this river; but, when a short distanco from the lake, be was driven from the river, and was forced to abandon his project, leaving tho question still one of geographical discussion and doubt. Ismail Pasha, Khedive, imbued with the ambition to emulate his illustrious grandsire discover the sourco of Egypt's great river, and extend his domain to its headwaters authorized Sir gatnuel Baker to undertake a voyage of discovery, which resulted in tho finding of a lake (in 18M), which he called tho Albert Nyanza. situated between tho first and second parallels north. Baker thus discovered the second Nile source. Sir Samuel was subsequently appointed Governor-general of tho equatorial provinces of Egypt, and was replaced by Gen. Gordou, in February, 1874. Tho writer, then au officer in the general ataff of tho Egyptian army, was chosen as chief of stall to General Gordon, and immediately on his arrival at Gondocoro, undcrtood to comploto the unfinished work of Captain Speke at the same time that he was urgently ordered to reach tho capital of the famous M'Tesa, King of Uganda, with tbo view of anticipatinc the 'Stanley Herald and London Telegraph Expedition," then about to set out from England. As may be seen by the book published on this subject, a treaty was made with the king just nine month beforo Stanlev's arrival, who found the grouud taken by th? Khedive's military stations. extendingto the Lake Victoria itself. It was a soro disappointment to Stanley, for tho even then coveted country of Uganda had become Egyptian territory, as mauilested in the following official note, communicated by tho Egyptian Minister for Foreign Aflairs to the representatives of all the irreat powers. It said: "There is accomplitdied the annexation to Egypt of all the territories situated in and around the great lakes Victoria and Albert and their arlluents. We are happy to have to announce the result of that expedition, which has 6ucct-ded,due to the en

ergy and devotion of those who have accomplished it under the direction of Gordon Pasha, and in the generous spirit of aiding in the fecundation of these counties by civilization, by agriculture, and by commerce." In addition to tbo diplomatic coup de main which had been the first intention arid object of his mission, accomplished under hardships almost unparalleled in the history of travel, tho Americo-Egyptian officer descended the river, and after great

suflenng and endurance, and accompanied only with two faithful soldiers and two servants, he traced the stream to its connecting point with Lake Albert, thus solving finally and forever the problem of tho Nile sources, and at the same time adding another lake to the system in the discovery of Lake Ibrahim. Mr. Henry M. Stanley's name has not been mentioned here among those who mny claim to bo the discoverers of the Nile sources. Mr. Stanley is not a Nile-source discoverer, in fact. He did not discover the Victoria or the Albert Nyanza, nor Lake Ibrahim, and these, lakes constitute the Nile sources, and none others. . THE HOUSE OF COMMONS. What Elizabeth Blsland Saw In the Lower Hranch of England's Parliament. Miss Elizabeth Bislanu, in Harper's Bazar. We are going to the House to-night. . Sir Frederick has an important bill coming on in the evening, and wiBhesus to hear the debate. He goes down early, and sends us tickets for the Speaker's gallery, to which one gains admittance only by a card from Mrs. Peel. We climb many steps, and a benign elderly person in knee-breeches and a great geld insignia of office shows us iuto a grated cage that looks down over the House, which is qnito full. At one side of as. a bit lower, is the ladies gallery, grated like our own. I wonder if they fear we shall get into mischief that they cage ns up like raonkeysTWe are directly over the Speaker, and see only the canopy of his chair, the curly white wigs of his three clerks, and the enormous gold mace. On the tier below is the reporters' gallery fagged, hard-worked looking men. who scribble furiously. One can see what they are doing quite well, and it is noticeable that most of them write in long-hand. Their account of the debate is to be found in the Times next day, and the speeches as given by. them are far more succinct and forcible than when the members delivered them. Opposito is the gallery for distinguished strangers, and crosswise run the galleries for tho peers. From time to time some one drops in from the House of Lords now also in session and stays to hear a portion of tho debate. Now ,it is a portly, florid old gentleman, who listens with his hand behind his ear; and now some slim, pink-cheeked boy just succeeded to the title, immaculately arrayed in ovening dress, with a pink peony in his buttonhole. The Conservatives sit on the greencushioned benches to tho right of the Speaker; the Ministers in front. Mr. Arthur Balfour, Secretary for Ireland, is speaking when we enter. A tall, slender man, with little, silken, brown ripples all oVcr his head; good-looking, calm and faultlessly dressed, and with delicate, slender hands, which he rests on the desk before him as he speaks, very languidly but clearly, and with a slight hesitation. They aro talking about Ireland, as usual. On the bench from which he has just risen sit Lord George Hamilton, also handsome, tall, and dark-haired; Mr. W. II. Smith, leader of the House, whose head is very large and quite bald; Mr. Goschen. and the rest of the Ministers. Behind sit the Conservatives, a fine body of men. extremely well set up, wearing glossy silk hats, and looking, on the whole, rather indifferent and bored, grinding out an occasional "Hear! hear!" when Mr. Balfour makes a point against his opponents This gentleman is saying, in polite parliamentary phrases, and in a somewhat fatigued manner, that he considers his accusers liars, one and all. When he is done, Mr. Gladstone takes the word, rising from the opposito benches, and looking extremely white and feeble, speaking keenly and to the point, in tbo trembling, squeaky tone used by the -sage old man. Close beside him is Lord Hartington. with his hat tipped over his eyes, his legs thrust out, and his hands in his pockets. Further back, among tbo Irishmen, is Bradlaugh. the famous infidel, rosy and genial, and very like the late Henry Ward Beecherin appearance.. Finally the Irishmen get on their feet ouo after another Dillon, O'Brien, Parnell and scream fluently and vituperatively at Mr. Balfour, who looks over his notes and pretends not to hear, them. Sir George Trevelyan. nephew of Macaulay. speaks on the Irish side with the polished roundness of the elocutionist: and a certain Mr. Fowler, with his laconic severity, brings a Hush to Balfour's forehead and makes him stir ancrily. In the gallery with us is a large handsome old lady, with much white lace around her head. Lady B whispers to mo it is Mrs. Gladstone, who is known as tho Stormy Petrel, for there is 6uro to be trouble brewing when she appears. It is rumored to-night that her husband hopsto cut tho government majority on the land purchase bill dowi) lower than it has ever yet been. She shows very little excitement, but watches aflairs attentively through the grating. On one side of us sits a slim girl inrred.so interested in the debate that she has thrown off her hat and gloves and pushed back her hair from her forehead. She holds the bars with both little whito hands, and will not miss a word a high-bred, pretty creature, evidently an ardent Conservative, who gives us mnch information in whispers as to the members and the state of the bill. On the other side sits ono I take to be an Amercan from her excessively perfect -raiment and her little rising inflections. Al ten minutes of 8 the Speaker declares a recess of half an hour, and the members troop out to dine. THE NAVAJO INDIANS. Some of the Traditions That Have Keen Handed Down from Time Immemorial. WUllam 31. Etlwardy, In Harper's Weekly. In connection with other tribes of the Southwest, the Navajos believe that they originally came from below, and, like the Moguls, their lower world is composed of two stories or stations. The best established tradition of tho creation, or appearance of man on earth, is as follows: The Navajos originally lived in the underworld that is, the one immediately below tho one upon which they now live. In that world they were happy and contented, and had everything which heart could wish for. There wero no excesses of beat or cold, and fruits and flowero grew in abundance. The day was marked by a bright cloud, which rose like a curtain in tho cast, and as this went down a black cloud rose in the west, which marked the night. In this happy condition they existed until somo one of tho tribe discovered an opening in the earth which extended upward to some place then unknown. He communicated his discovery to his people, and tho tribe set out to find to what place tho opening would lead. Fiually they emerged upon this earth at a point somewhere in tho Navajo mountains, and ira mediately prepared to take possession of their new home. When they came npon earth they were ruled by a queen, who mysteriously disappeared four days afterward. Men were seut in all directions to search for her, and thoso who had gone in the direction of the Navajo mountains came upon the opening by which the tribe had ascended from the lower world, and found that it had not yet been closod. Looking downward they beheld their former home, and Baw their queen combing her long black hair. She spoke to them, and told them to return to her peoplo with the message that 6ho had died on earth and bad retnrued to the lower world, and that they would come to her only when death had released them from tho upper world. With this the earth closed, and tho searchers returned to the tribe with the message which had been given them. Soon after this, giants appeared in tho country, who killed and ato up the entire tribe, with tho exceptian of four families, who found safety in a deep canon of the Navajo mountains.. One day in their desolate retreat tlicy saw at early dawn a bright ray of sunshiuo beamincr upon a lovoly verdant hill not far away. Foiir days in succession this phenomenon was presented, and beiug drawn by curiosity to visit tho spot, they found a beautiful girl babe. This child wns regarded ns the daughter of heaveu and earth, and the3' reared her with tho greatest care. When 6ho grew to womanhood, the great warrior who rides upon a white horse and carries the sun upon his arm as a shield fell in love with nud married her. Tho oflspring of this union were two sons, who slew the giants who had destroyed the Navajos; and under their protection tho world was peopled again. Tho daughter ot heaven and earth was finally taken up by her warrior husbaud and transported to the great waters to the westward, where she was placed in a floating palace, which has siuce beenber home. Sho

is immortal, and to her are addressed the prayers of tho people. Her water home is guarded by twelve immortal beings, who return periodically to the land to learn what tho Navajos are doing, and to carry back with thorn any messages which they may send. Tho tradition of this protecting goddess accounts for tho respect which the Navajos show to the , wpmen of their tribe. Among them a man never lifts his hand against a- woman, although it is no unusual thing for a squaw to administer a sound thrashing to the warrior bnsband who has oflerided her. All of the sheep, which constitnto the great wealth of tne tribe, are owned by tho women; and in the various families tho liuo of descent is always on the sideof tho woman. The Navajos have little or no idea of a future existence, but are firm believers in the transmigration of souls. For this reason they have great reverence for different animals and birds, which aro supposed to be the re-embodiment of departed spirits of Navajos.' ; A Social Innovation. Chicajrorort. An article frequently seen in the cities of the Pacific coast, where the nimble Ilea makes life a burden to objects of its attention, was introduced into - polite society in New York not long ago in a rather sensational way by a young lady of extreme habits, but palliating beauty." whose shoulders have long been the subject of . laudatory comment and a magnet for admiring eyes. At a dinner this lady was attired in a gown that displayed a dazzling expanse of shoulders. While the dinner was in progress the attention of tho guests was attracted by a long, ornamental article of ivory that reposed besido the plate of the decollete beauty.' Everybody wondered what the use of this coufd be. Finally they were astounded by seeing the young lady take up tho weapon, and, reaching it 'over her shoulder, proceeded to scratch her back with its sharpened point. Up went the eye-glasses, and the beauty, seeing that sho had occasioned surprise, volunteered an explanation of her performance. The implement was a. Japanese backscratcher, ana as she was often made very nervous by a desire to scratch herself in a spot out or reach of her hands, she had resolved to use one, hoping they might be made the fashion. A Ulg Society "Catch." New York Letter. Of course, young John Jacob Astor is the cynosure of ten thousand feminine eyes, and match-making mothers are anxious to see where he will throw his handkerchief, but 1 doubt if any woman would find him much of catch as a husband. Though he is said to be the richest young man in the world, he is als one of the stupidest, as well as being tail, nngainly, round-shouldered and lumbering. He was at Harvard for awhile, but bis brains gave out and ho could not graduate. The men who were in college with him said that he was far from popular, penurious and inclined to be silly. They dubbed him "Jack" Astor and laid a heavy stress upon the first two sylables of the name combined. "Jack" Astor has not been elected a member of the Harvard Club in this city, and club men say he is not likely to be. But as the richest youth of gilded Gotham, and able to bny and run a club of his own. he can afford to smile at his critics, and he does indeed he smiles too much. - Her Advice. Texas Sittings.
