The Indians have a humiliating
mode of dealing with the uncourage-

died recently who was dubbed “lady
Jim,” the “squaw man.” Having
refused to fight with his tribe at Py

demned ever after to wear petticoats.
A i.ate dispatch says Frank"James

According to the census Bulletin
the number of farms in the United
States was 2,060,000. in 1S70, and
4,000,000 in 1880. Much of this in
crease is in the new territories, some
of which were sparsely settled ten
years ago, but the fact that Alabama,
Florida sind Texas have more than
doubled the number of tiieir farms in
the time, while Georgia, Arkansas,
South Carolina and North Carolina
have nearly doubled, and Mississip
pi, Virginia and Louisiana have in
creased from 50 to 60 per eeijt. shows

plantations into smaller holdings.
Tiie Oregonian bewails the lot of
girls in Portland who work at sew

$4 to $6 a week rather than take
higher wages and do housework.
“There is,” tho Oregonian says,
“among the poor toilers a false no
tion that in abandoning the occupa
tions of the shop for those of the
household there is a step downward
in the social scale.” The great need
in all parts of the country is lucrative
occupations that women can pursue
to earn d liveliliood’and be respected.
A development of small manufactur

A story has recently been spread
abroad to tiie effect that the body of
Abraham Lincoln has been secretly
removed from the sarcophagus at
Springfield, Ill., to prevent the pos
sibility of any further attempt by
grave-robbers. The story runs that
the removal was made within a few
days after the attempted desecration
of the grave a few years ago; that the
body was placed in a lead-lined, air
tight cedar casket and placed in
another portion of the monument,
and that its location is known only
to a few immediate friends of the
family. * The custodian of the monu
ment, however, announces that: “No
part of the remains of Abraham Lin
coln lias been seen by mortal eyes
since they were soldered up in the
lead coffin October 9th, 1874, two
7 sirs before the attempt of the
thieves to steal the body.. As I have

DANGEROUS WILD ANIMAL,.
A Little Boy Attacked by a Fero
cious Catamount.
Home Courier, Tuesday.
Last Saturday evening as a little
twelve year obi son of Mr. Halsted
Smith, who resides about six miles
from Rome, was driving up a calf,
and while crossing a branch some
distance from the house, a large cata
mount sprang from the underbrush
and jumped upon tiie calf. The lit
tle boy went bravely to the rescue
and with the stick which he carried
dealt-the catamount a blew on the
bead which brought it to the ground.
The attack-of the boy was nobly sup
ported by his sagacious companion
and champion, a, large yar i dog.
And when the dog took the light in
to his own hands the little boy lit
out for home. TlTe howls of the dog
satisfied him that that good animal
was getting the worst of the fight.
But before reaching home he was
overtaken by the dog who seemed
to be badly frightened.
Reaching home, the little fellow
told of his adventure; but Mr. Smith,
thinking lie had only been frighten
ed by a playful cat, laughed the mat
ter off. But Sunday evening the lit
tle boy was placed on a mule and
again sent after the calves. He cross-
oil the creek near tho same spot as he
did the evening before,and stopped to
lot his mule drink. As the little fel
low was sitting there ruminating
over his experience of the last even
ing, libs little heart stood still with
fear as he heard a rush through the
bushes and saw the ferocious cata
mount preparing to spring upon him.
Before lie had time to act, the lith
and tiger-like form of the wild ani
mal was whizzing through the air
towards him. The catamount lit on
the pummel of the saddle; and as lie
did, the little boy gave it a shove
that caused it to lose its balance and
fall forward on the boy’s thigii.
Another lick sent it to the ground.
Tiie animal scratched our hero’s face
and tore one side of his pants com
pletely off.
The brisk encounter only served
to more infuriate tiie catamount, and
it sprang on the mule’s haunches.
The mule dashed forward and the
brave little boy again succeeded in
dislocating the foe by dealing it a se
vere cut in the face with his whip;
and now the thoroughly frightened-
mule was not slow in taking the
young hero out of danger. And
when lie related to liis father this
last encounter, showed his scratches,
and the place where his pants used
to be, there was n > more doubting
the fact that a fero.'ious wild animal
lived near.
Yesterday afternoon Mr. Smith and
a party started out to rapture the cat
amount, and we hope they will suc
ceed. It is known to be a catamount
because of the diserintion given of it
The Subdued Stranger BecomesPo
etical Over Vanished Landmarks.
JTexax /Siftings.
A rather subdued stranger recent
ly entered an Austin icstiurant, end,
taking a seat near the door, was soon
confronted by a waiter, to whom he
communicated his order. The meal
was soon before him, smoking hot,
and as the waiter was about to with
draw;^ e stranger said :
“Er-*-see here; there are no flies in
this cofifee.”
“Fiies ! O, no, 'sir,” replied the
man with a Masonic apron and a
napkin over his shoulder.
“I had expected to meet them
hertv-in fact. I had half-way prom
ised to—why, Heavens! I faR-to
recognize my old barly-soup friend,
the cockroach !”
“There are no cockroaches in this
housejjfsir,” said the waiter, sternly.
“And so the roach, too, has desert
ed usA "Well, well. Hay, where’s the
iimpj Vrot napkin, with prune sauce
on onefede and sv. cet oii on the oth
er.”
“Our napkins are all fresh and
newly laundried.”
“Strange, ’tis passing strange.
’Where’s the variegated table cloth
that looked like a Dolly Yarden
dress pattern done up in coffee dregs
and molasses ?”
“Our table spreads are clean every
day, sir.”
“Well, well.” Suddenly the man
commenced spearing around in the
butter dish with his fork. “I don’t
find it,” lie murmured sadly.
“Don’tfind what?” snapped the
waiter.
“Has she gone?”
“Has who gone?”
“The blight-eyed divinity who
used to conceal samples of her au
burn ringlets every- morning under
the butter lump. She knew 1 always
looked forward with pleasure to
those little mementoes.”
“Our butter has no hair.”
“I see,” sighed the man. “Bald
as a door knob. Hasn’t there been
some kind of a change in tiie man-
| agement of this place ?”
1 “Yes.”
“All of the dear, old, familiar land
marks seem to have disappeared. Is
this a menagerie?”
“No, that’s a biscuit.”
“All, distinctly I remember—it wasonlv
last December—
That I cooliv, calmly fondled such a
biscuit o'er and o’er;
Then I broke the cover off it, and I raay
be called false prophet
".'.‘pf a baked and blislered mouse did not
roll out upon the tloor.”
We have previously stated that the
subdued stranger was seated near the
door, and it was a good thing for
him that lie was. The waiter made
one wild break, but the subdued an
ticipator of a hearty meal fled.

The Roar of London.
W. J. Si ill man in The Century.
As I write, sitting by my study
window, full five miles from the city
proper, 1 hear the roar of the traffic
like the sea on a rocky shore—the
rush of incessant trains along the iron
ways, the rumble of myriads of drays
along hundreds of miles of stone-
paved streets (for which wood is now
being in part substituted), each no
more to the general symphony than
the hum of a gnat to the sounds of a
summer day—a volume of sound un-
interniitting from dawn till dark.
Yet I am bowered in green trees,
body knows or cares to know him;
son-in-law Dr. Webb is a gentleman
who has been cut by half the men
who knew him before his marriage
with tiie two hundred millionaire’s
daughter; Cornelius is a Christian,
who does not squander any of bis co
lossal wealth in benevolence; Fred
erick seems to be a cipher in the so
cial, political, financial, moral and
religious circles of the metropolis;
and son-in-law Eliot F. Shepard,who
was always considered more or less
of a braggart, has proven himself a
snob by iiis toadyism to Lord Cole
ridge. This is the Vanderbilt family,
the head of the newly rich set of
New York.
"Fox's Book ol' Martyrs”
Contains the history and pictures of
hundreds of people who were stoned,
burned, beaten, pulled to pieces and
otherwise tortured on account of
their conscientious convictions its to
belief and duty. They suffered in
credible torment and have come
down to the present age as martyrs.
It is not now customary to torture
people thus, but they are made mar
tyrs by rheumatism until they suffer
almost as much as did the heroes of
the martyr ages. There was no re
lief for the old-time martyrs, but
there is happy relief for those who
suffer from rheumatism. Cashier
Charles F. Morrill, of Manchester, N.
H., suffered terribly from frequent
attacks of this painful disease, hut he
has been cured. Ho writes: “I was

They bad entered their hotel looking
