The Chilkoot Indian Packers. “At Dyea is a small trading post, kept by a white man, around which is gathered a village of Indians or Si wash, belonging to the Chilkoot tribe. They are by no means ill-looking peo ple. The men are strong and well formed; the women (naturally, when one considers their mode of life) are inferior to the men in good looks. These women' have a habit of painting their faces uniformally black with a mixture of soot and grease, a cover ing which is said to prevent snow blindness in the winter and to be a protection in summer against the mosquitoes. Some have only the up per part of their faces painted, and the black part terminates in a straight line, giving the effect of a half mask. At the time of our arrival the Indians were engaged very busily in catching and drying small fish. This fish is very oily, and when dried can be lighted at one end and used as a can dle; and for this purpose it is stored away against the loug winter night.. 1 ’ —Outing. Til© ItlllPH.

The best cricket batsman in Eng land now is an Indian named Ranjit sinliji. It sounds something like fall ing downstairs with a scuttle of coal, and it is by no means an index of his ability to wield a cricket bat. In his opening match Ranjitsinhji made 77 not out and 150. There are but few more astonishing feats on the cricket field. He simply distanced his fellow batsmen. In his first class matches ho averaged 57, with an aggregate of 2,780 runs, beating the invincible W. R. Grace’s 2,739 made in 1871. Altogether the batting of Ranjit sinhji amounts to genius. Ordinary players who attempted to turn good length ball3 off the middle stump in variably came to grief, but he did it with such skill and certainty that tho best bowlers were driven to despair. Ranjitsinhji is tall and dark, and has an eye like an eagle. If his feilow- Indians will but fight England with half the desperation with which Ran jitsinhji bats, her sovereignty in this East is as good as lost.—New York Journal.

The Jay is almost at hand when man will dispute with the bird for suprem acy in the air. For hundreds of years his ambition has been at work with such persistency of effort that he now begins to see the end. Ho has grap pled with the invisible forces of the atmosphere, sometimes blindly, but always courageously; generally to ineetwith disappointment, but happily with enough success to keep alive his determination to master the most dif ficult of all problems in physics. Lives have been lost and fortunes have been expended in the pursuit of this baffling question of man-flight. Ridicule has been heaped upon the heads of those who sought to cope with the feathered messengers of the air, and their sanity questioned by the world at large. The advancement made toward the full solution of the problem of man flight during the year 1896 was greater than that of any previous year, and attracted the widest attention among scientists. Probably more interest centered in the experiments conducted thirty miles southeast of Chicago on the shore of Lake Michigan by Octave Clianute, of Chicago, than anywhere else. The prominent position occu pied by Mr. Clianute in the scientific world was accepted as a guarantee that he had faith in his experiments, and that he had,no other purpose in view but to demonstrate certain principles involved in the problem. At the time he was thus engaged Mr. Chanute observed much caution in his utterances concerning the results ob tained. Fearful lest his conclusions might not be properly formed, or that he might be misunderstood, be re frained as far as possible from commit ing himself on the subject further than to say his experiments were very satis factory. Since then ho has gained courage, so to speak, and has become enthusiastic over what lias been ac complished. He is now confident that the way is clear for the solution of the problem, and modestly takes to him self a goodly share of the credit for pointing the way. He claims that his experiments have marked out the best lines for investigators to follow, and numbers them as follows in the order of their importance: 1. The development of the self-pro pelled aerodrome. 2. The development of the motor less air sailer. ?>. The development of the motor. During the past week the experi ments of last year have been renewed near Dune Park, Ind., and Mr. Chanute has been almost a daily visitor to the scene of action. His in terest in the result will not let him stay away longer than one day for sev eral reasons. One reason is that the machine being used is one of his own invention in its most important details, and another is that the experiments are following the second line of in vestigation, which he laid down as necessary for the solution of the problem of man-flight. It.is said that Mr. Chanute is the real one who is conducting the experiments, but this he denies in favor of A. M. Herring, a young man of considerable scientific knowledge, who was associated with Mr. Chanute last year in his extensive experiments at the same place. The machine with which Mr. Her ring is now experimenting daily repre sents the ideas of both himself and Mr. Chanute. It belongs to the same class as the machine which the late Otto Lilienthal, of Berlin, brought out in 1894 and in the use of which he met his death last year. It might well be termed a flying machine, and yet this PROFESSOR CHANUTE’S LATEST FLYING MACHINE. description does not fit accurately. It is technically known as an aero-curve, or a gliding machine. Better still, it might be called an air coaster, for in its action it approached very closely to the motion of those machines known as roller coasters. The resemblance is carried still further in the applica tion of the principles of operation. It is one of three sailing machines invented by Mr. Chanute, including a steering apparatus designed by Mr. Herring. The first machine was based upon a reverse of the principles evolved in the liilientlia! apparatus. Instead of the man moving about under the machine to bring the center of gravity under the center of air pressure, it was constructed with a view' to bring ing the center of pressure over the center of gravity l>y the aid of wings moved automatically. This machine had twelve wings, each six feet long and three feet wide, and each pivoted to a central frame. It had a total wing surface of 177 square feet, and weighed thirty-seven pounds. By a process of evolution this ap paratus became the machine in use at the present time with which such re markable results have been obtained. Experiments showed many defects in ] the machine, and it was rebuilt on a, different principle. The twelve wings j were discarded, and in their stead were substituted three superimposed concave surfaces, each sixteen feet long and four feet three inches wide, with an aggregate surface of nineteen square feet. Attached to the rear of this machine was a combined horizon tal and vertical rudder, designed by Mr. Herring as a result of his frequent trials of the machine. In tlie course of t-lie experiments it was found neees '■ sary to remove the lower surface, and j this left the present machiue. The several changes therefore re | duoed the sustaining surface of the. j machine from 177 square feet to 135 square feet. The weight was lowered at the same time from thirty-seven A GOOD START. pounds to twenty-three pounds. This general reduction did not impair tlie strength of tlie machine, while at the same time it improved its efficiency to a remarkable degree. Repeated trials showed tlxe machine capable of sus taining an aggregate weight of 178 pounds, this figure representing the combined weight of the operator ami tlie machine. The frame is con structed of spruce wood, braced with fine piano wire, and the concave sur faces are formed by varnished silk stretched over the frame to the highest tension. Will this machine fly ? Mr. Chanute will answer this “question l>y replying that was never intended to fly. He will inform those asking the question that the machine is made for experi mental purposes solely, with the end in view of developing tlie motorless air sailer. At the same time, Mr. Clianute might say, tlie experiments may lead to a solution of the most im portant part of the problem of nian tliglit—the maintenance of the equilib rium of the machine under all cir cumstances. He holds that this prob lem must be solved first. It lias been demonstrated to his satisfaction that until automatic stability at all angles of flight and conditions of wind is evolved and safety thereby secured it would be premature to seek to apply a motor or a propelling instrument to a fuli-sized machine. The ordinary observer would an swer that the machine does fly, never theless, after witnessing a day’s ex periments among the sand dunes. The distinction between sailing and glid ing and Hying would not appeal to any but the scientific mind while watching the “double-decker” travel through tlie air a distance of 201) yards with Mr. Herring hanging by his arms be neath. If tlie spectator was daring enough to tackle the machine himself and succeeded in getting the right “kind of a start be would be willing to take oath that tie machine flew. He would also be willing to testify that his sensations while the flight lasted were indescribably thrilling and de lightful. All the flights begin from an emi nence, the numerous sand hills near Dune Dark offering all the opportuni ties desired for starting. Another re quisite is that the operator must start facing the wind, although with pro ficiency good results may be obtained with the machine traveling at an angle with the wind. Those who have seen a buzzard or most any other large bird begin a flight from the surface of the earth will have noticed that the bird invariably faces the wind and runs a few steps before rising. For the same reasons the operator of the Chanute flying machine must face the wind, holding the machine over his head, then run a few steps down the side of the hill on w'hich he stands and finally give a jump outward into space as though he never expected to come down. He will be doing nothing more, in effect, than ho did when he jumped from the top of a fence in boyhood days with an umbrella over his head. The wind rushing against the lower sides of the two surfaces of varnished silk holds the operator suspended, while the angle at which he holds the surfaces either impels it forward or retards its motion. Sometimes a strong gust of wind comes along when least expected and suddenly raises the machine higher than the starting point. But for the automatic rudder this might prove disastrous to the operator. He would, in all likelihood, turn a back somersault with tho machine and get badly hurt. Again, a blast of air from above might strike on the top of the machine and cause it to shoot down ward at a terrific rate of speed. This is what happened to Lilienthal las! year, and was the cause of the accident which resulted in his death. The line of flight of the machine in the hands of such a skillful operator as Mr. Herring may be controlled very largely. He has demonstrated time and again his ability to steer the ma chine in broad curves by simply shift ing the weight of his body from one side to another. Lost Monday he suc ceeded in describing a compound curve during a flight of about 300 feet, and landed with his hack almost com pletely turned to the wind. It has also been demonstrated that the ma chine can be made to travel almost at right angles with the wind at a high rate of speed. Flights have been made in all sorts of winds, the speed of which varied from ten to twenty-cme miles an hour. The latter wind is higher in its speed than any gliding machiue was ever tried in before and tested the steadi- ness of tlie machine most thoroughly. The speed at which the machine travels rests very largely with the operator and depends upon the angle of descent from the starting point. When he finds that he is approaching the ground too swiftly it is only necessary for him to tilt the front of the machine upward, when its speed will be immediately checked, and a landing can be uiado in safety. The range of flight is also very largely within the control of the operator, One who is skillful being able to alight within ten feet of any spot indicated while the wind main tains an even rate of speed. The longest flight recorded is the one made this year l>y Mr, Herring, which was almost 900 feet. Another flight of GOO feet was made last week. Long flights are not the aim of the men who are conducting the experi- ALBATROSS WHICH FAILED. inents with the gliding machine. They are seeking to arrive at intelligent conclusions concerning the problem of automatic stability more than anything else, and it is claimed by Mr. Chanute that many new facts have been discov ered bearing upon this question. In anticipation of au early solution of the question Mr. Herring is hard at work on a motor which he hopes to be able to apply to the gliding machine. An evidence of the faith that is within him is shown by the fact that he predicts that an air ship will be constructed within another year which will fly to New York with but four stops on the way to replenish the stock of fuel. — Chicago Tinies-Herald. Rewarded For Finding a Feather. The Gazette of Moscow says that while the King of Siam was passing through the streets of that city a white feather fell-from the plume of his hel met, and was picked up by the peasant Toukianow, who is in the service of M.

He was greatly surprised several days later upon receiving from this official, in the name of His Siamese Majesty, a casket containing a portrait of the King and a massive gold chain deco rated with a tokeii of the same metal bearing the arms of Siam in enamel.

' Two State* Itentow n Title Upon a CUlval rmis Young Woman. Miss Mamie Telford Combs, better known now as Captain Combs, has cre ated a sensation among military peo ple. When the Fourth Regiment of Missouri National Guards was camping in Carrollton in the summer ■ . ; CAPTAIN COMBS. of 1896 Miss Combs, who was visiting her sister with a number of girls from various States, went daily into camp. Miss Combs took such an un feigned interest in military affairs that she soon found herself on a foot ing of comaradarie with all the soldiers in camp. Her favoritism, which was unusual, culminated in a suggestion to adopt her as “daughter of the regi ment.” Fearful, perhaps, of a com plication of relationships that might ensue if their daughter offered to be a sister, etc., the boys begged that she be given a rank on the grounds that only a resident of Missouri should be accorded a daughtership. Accord ingly Colonel Corby accepted her as a member of his staff, she was designat ed captain, and upon camp breaking up she was duly commissioned. Of course, when she returned last fall to her homo in Lexington, Ivy., accounts of the “honors thrust upon her” by Missouri were heralded abroad. Infected with the fever of en thusiasm, Kentucky, her adopted State, vested her with the same title, and now she is commissioned captain by both States. Captain Combs is a handsome wo man of commanding appearance, and in her dark blue uniform, which off ■ sets to a nicety her exceptional blonde beauty, she could not fail to attract attention anywhere. Doubtless Miss Combs inherits her military instinct, as sho is a granddaughter of that char acter well remembered in the history of Kentucky, General Combs. Influence of Music on tlie Hair. An English statistician has recent ly been engaged in an original task, that of studying the influence of music on the hair. The investigator establishes, in the first place, that the proportion of bald persons is eleven per cent, for the liberal pro fessions in general, with the excep tions of physicians, who appear to hold the record for baldness, which is thirty per cent. Musical composers do not form an exception to the rule, and baldness is as frequent among them as in the other professions. The cornet-a-piston and the French horn act with surprising surety and rapid ity; but the trombone is the depila tory instrument par excellence. It will clear the hair from one’s head in five years. This is what the author calls “baldnessof the fanfares,” which rages with special violence among reg imental bands.—Scientific American. TROPICAL TRAMPS.

Some Very Odd Practices That Are Ob served in Different Lands. Some Very Odd Practices that Are Ob served in Different Lands. It is lawful for any person to kill a grave robber in China the instant he is caught in the act. Japanese workmen wear both in their caps and on their necks an in scription stating their business ami the name of their employers. The Chinese Government levies a regular tax on beggars and in turn gives them the privilege of begging in a certain district. In Albania the men wear petticoats and the women trousers. The women do all the work and the men do all the heavy standing round. Once every twenty years the cere mony of “Comparing the Standards” is gone through with in England. A part of the wall of the House of Commons is torn away, and the two originals of weight and measure, a small cube of platinum weighing exactly sixteen ounces and a bronze yardstick care fully adjusted to thirty-six inches are taken out and compared with the same thing used in the Government Office of Weights and Measures. These com parisons are made in the presence of a company of gentlemen appointed for the purpose, among whom is the presi dent of the Board of Trade. When the important ceremony is over and the weights are found to be accurately ad justed, the two precious pieces are again walled up, not to be disturbed again for twepty years. The last time they were taken out was in April, 1892, so it will be 1012 before they will be wanted again. Similarly at Washing ton, a standard bronze yard is let into the foundation walls of the Senate wing of the Capitol. In German countries the “Dutch treat” prevails, and if a gentleman in vites you to dine with him at a restau rant he expects you to pay for what you eat. In Greece they make two five drachma bills by tearing one ten in two. In Arabia they clean their teeth with a "tooth-stick" —a piece of root with the end frayed into a brush. Abraham ‘ was the first man to use the tooth stick, according to the tradition. In Russia a person must pass an ex amination to show that he has good command of the machine before he is allowed to ride a bicycle. Even then he must supply his machine in several places with a big tag bearing his num ber, as if it were a public cab. More over he must pay fees to the govern ment for his fun. In Germany if a traveller stays more than a month in a town the local au thorities make him pay a tax. In Faris a house-owner must pay a tax on every window in his house. American Corn in Europe. The very causes which are work ing to create a demand from abroad for American wheat will bring about also a brisk call for American corn. Not without substantial result has been the missionary work carried on in foreign lands on behalf of our Indian corn. We exported no less than 178.- 817,117 bushels of corn and corn meal in the last year of record. Now that there is certain to be an advance in the cost of wheat food products abroad the advantages of Indian corn, much cheaper than wheat as it will be, can not fail to find special appreciation. The larger the use of our corn abroad this year the greater the demand from Europe is likely to be the year follow ing, and this, as a matter of course, will mean money for American farm ers. There is no doubt as to their ability to provide a generous corn sup ply. More than 2,000,000,000 bushels were included in the nation’s output of this staple crop last year. —Boston Globe.

Lewis, of the Tennessee Centennial, who owns a farm at Sycamore, Tenn., had a very valuable Jersey cow that in some way or other broke her left hind leg. Be cause of certain feelings of sentiment, he was very loath to shoot her if It could possibly be avoided. Major Lewis called in a surgeon and had the leg amputated, and then a car penter carefully fitted a wooden leg t® the stump.. It healed readily, and in a very short time the cow could get around as well as any animal on the place. Peggy lived for several years after losing her leg and died only a month ago. She would, when things did not go just right, stand on her three good legs and kick everything within reach with her artificial member. GEORGIA LADIES TELL. THE TRUTH. Q$M QfbfrtjOl&ffu ntCs.
