LIFE AMONG THE SIOUX. ...

Among the Sioax may be found many
white men who are married to
squaws, and who are adopted by
tbe tribe. They are known in Trotter
M jiinwi as "squaw men,” and before
the Indians were restricted to tho limits
of tbe reservation, accompanied them
from place to place in their nomadio
wanderings. Of this class and s great por¬ of
tion ore Reach Ca n adia n s, many
them are rich in cattle and ponies. Their
children are usually bright and intelli¬
gent, aud when old enough are given the
advantage of the mission and agency
and taught to adopt tbe customs
of the whites. The government scouts
employed at the various mi l i ta r y posts
are composed chiefly of French half
breeds for the reason that aside from
their knowledge of the country, they

Although ti.. atoox are not
very demonsti uive in their manners
about the tra . t’s store, they can and on
certain .w ask>ns become as noisy
boisteriou-v as ‘ ’a whole convent when the
father Abbot has gone to bed.” Among
other novelties in the store, we once had an
ingenious toy, which consisted qf a small,
square boor, on Hie top of which were
four little images representing seated negro tiny
minstrels, two of whom, on
chairs, held respectively a set of bones
and a tambourine. The other two figures
were in a standing attitude. When the
concern was wound up with a key, the
little darkey musicin-.a began a lusty
clattering of th'> ’ — * and tambourine,
and the standing ng j: es would break out
ip a wild dance, jerking and throwing
legs and arms in mirth provoking mimic atti¬
tudes of every description. These
performances never failed to elicit the
wildest applause, the squaws fairly
nhrinlrlng with delight, and even the most
stoical chiefs shouting wy-yu-pah (away
up) at the top of their voice.
They ore, however, subject which to occa¬
sional fits of .! pondency in ‘‘a
sadness appea. . fall upon their spirits,”
and I have bet., informed by educated
half breeds living umong them that the
different lines of point on their faces sig¬
nify when they are in love, melancholy,
etc. I once passed a period of fourteen
days and nights with a young Indian at
a point about thirteen miles up the river
above the fort, near the month of the
Cheyenne. My companion was a strong
»nH active young fellow about 24 years
of age, by name Ferocious Bear, but his
manners greatly belied his name, for a
more civil partner I could not hope to
One stormy Sunday while sitting by
the fire in our shanty, I observed that
Ferocious Bear was unusually taciturn.
Usually, when about the shanty, he was
employed in cleaning his firearms, or
with bits of charcoal embellishing tbe
walls of our. shanty with pictures of
eagles, buffalos, deer, etc. But on this
particular day he scarcely touched his
breakfast, and up till noon had spoken
not a word. When I finally asked what
was wrong, he shook his head mourn¬
fully and replied that "his heart was
very bad.” J had with me an excellent
field glass belonging to Lieut- Myer at
the post, and when tho storm cleared
away I banded it td4he Indian and re¬
quested him to take a look at an encamp¬
ment of his people a mile or so distant.
It so happened that he had never before
looked through one, and his amazement
and delight was unbounded, and his
moroseness soon passed away. artists
The Sioux picture skillful writers painters—vet or
are by no means their robes
some of tbe decorations on
are of very clever designs. Among my
collection of Indian curiosities is quite a
large picture painted on warriors cloth, represent¬ bedecked
ing a dozen mounted
with paint and feathers all ready for the
warpath. It was executed for me by an
Indian named Black Hawk. He was a
participant in the Custer fight, and
several of his pictures representing the
battleground were purchased by Dr. Mo
Chesney, of Fort Bennett, and forwarded
to tbe Smithsonian institution. The
pictured representation of their battles
with other tribes are an evidence of their
tendency to exaggerate their own
prowess. Every solitary Indian repre¬
sented in these encounters as getting ter¬
ribly thumped with a war club, or losing
his topknot, is certain to be anything
else but a Sioux.
A noticeable feature of tbo Sioux is
their affection for their children. A
chief, or, indeed, any Indian who is well
to do, L e., one who has many ponies,
spares neither pains nor expense to make
his little ones happy by lavishing upon
them everything in the way of gaudy
apparel that barbario fancy can suggest.
Some of the little boys, tbe pride of their
parents’ hearts, when mounted on their
favorite ponies with embroidered saddle
and bridle, and their own persons glitter¬
ing with ornaments, are a sight to be¬
hold.—Sam Parker in Detroit Free Press.
Beta* and BU Mother.
Visiting Heine one evening, when he
was just dictating a letter to his secre¬
tary, I asked to whom he was writing.
He replied; “To my mother.” “Is she
still alive, the old lady who lives by the
Dammthnr?” “Oh, yes, ,r said he, “it fa
true she fa old, sick and weak, but she
has still the warm heart of a mother.”
“And you write often to her?” "Regu¬
larly, every month-” “How unhappy
she must be on account of your condi¬
tion 1” “Oh, as regards that, there exists
between us a peculiar arrangement My
mother believes me to be well and
healthy. She her, reads no newspapers. I
write often to as well as I can, in a
merry humor, and then she fa happy.
That a son can be as sick and miserable
as I am no mother would believe.”
After this Heine became silent and
my soul was deeply moved when, from
his bed of torture, where he lay for long
years, I saw him seal and send off to the
post his letter, assumed which was full of consoling
news and serenity.—Alfred
Meisser.

ROOFS OF CITY HOUSES.
A PU/atelM SMumiMiun That !*»• House¬
top. Be TornSd Into Plnjr*ronnd».
Dr. Gouveraeur M. Smith ha* contri¬
buted to a recent number of Tbe Medical
Record an Interesting and suggestive is
paper. The main point of this _ article
that by neglecting to make the roofs of
the bonaca places of safety and pleasantly best
datable, New Yorkers miss tbe
and most readily available opportunity sunshine
open to them of enjoying fresh
in moderate weather and fresh and com¬
paratively cool air daring tho sweltering
bests of summer. of things
Dr. Smith describes the state
which all New Yorkers know when he
speaks of the “dark closet with precipit¬ rarely
ous ladder leading to the scuttle,
entered and ascended except by work¬
men to repair tbe roof." In habitually a private
dwelling of the smallest size
built on thh island, tbe roof has an area
as large as that of the aired, yard, and immeasur¬ intrin¬
ably better lighted and
sically a far better place as a playground adults in
for children or a resort for
pleasant or in oppressively hot weather.
That is to say, in the houses most favor¬
ably circumstanced for light and air, one-
half of the available breathing mace of
tffe city, excluding the street^ is abso¬
lutely wasted. In the more expensive is
and extensive dwellings the case
worse, because tbe yard is contracted as
the house is extended, until in most cases
it amounts to little more than an air
shaft, and is not available at Ml as a
place of recreation.
In the tenement bouses the case is far
worse. Nobody who has ever visited the
back yard of ope in tho more populous
quarters of the city would ever there¬
after think of it as a playground or for a
breathing space or a place of resort
rest and refreshment. Yet the choice
fear these purposes is practically between of the
this place, one-third the area
house, and the street, while the • house¬
top, three times as large as the yard and
in every respect more eligible, is abso¬
lutely wasted, so far as concerns and enjoyment any pre¬
cautions taken for its use
by the builder, who nevertheless prides
himself upon his economy of room.
It fa no wonder that Dr. Smith asks
whether “architectural ingenuity,coached
by sanitary science,” cannot “contrive
pome method of using the thousands of
acres of housetops additionally on this island useful so that
roofs can be made at
certain seasons by affording outdoor rec¬ ”
reation and protection from invalidism.
Really it seems as if architectural inge¬
nuity had been exerted in the opposite
direction, for there is no difficulty in the
way of achieving this result New York
is already a fiat roofed city. All that is
absolutely needed to convert its roofs into
toe pleasantest [ parts of the house after
the sun goes down in summer, and while
the sun is up daring the spring and au¬
tumn, fa perhaps slightly to increase
their structural strength, to cover be them
with some material that shall practi¬
cable as a pavement, to provide decent
and commodious access to them by con¬
tinuing to the roof the main stairway of
the house, and to provide a parapet that
will obviate any danger of falling by
children or careless persons. The cost of
all this is not worth counting in com¬
parison to the benefits to be derived from
it.—New York Times.

THE STAR.
A GREAT NATIONAL DEMOCRATIC
NEWSPAPER.
The Stab is the only New York newspaper
possessing the fullest confidence of the Na¬
tional Administration and the United Dem¬
ocracy of New York, the political battle
ground of the Republic.
Jeffersonian Democracy, pure and simple,
is good enough for the Star. Single hand¬
ed among tbe metropolitan press, it has
stood by the men called by the great Democ¬
racy to redeem the government from
twenty-five years of Republican wastefulness
and corruption and despotism to the South.
For these four years past ithasbeenunswerv
ing in its fidelity the administration of Grov¬
er Cleveland. It is for him now—for Cleve¬
land and Thurman—for four years more of
Democratic honesty in onr national affairs,
and. of continued national tranqnllity and
prosperity.
For people who like that sort of Democracy
the Stab is the paper to read.
The Stab stands squarely on the National
Democratic platform. It believes that any
tribute exacted from the people in excess of
the demands of a government economic ally
administered is essentially oppressive and
dishonest. The scheme fostered and cham¬
pioned by the Republican part-of making the
government a miser, wringing millions an
nually from the people and locking them up
in vaults to serve no purpose but Invite waste
fulness and dishonesty, it regards as a mon¬
strous crime against the right of American
citizenship. Republican political jugglers
may call it "protective taxation the Stab’s
name for it is robbery.
Through and through the Stab is a great
newspaper. Its tone is i ore and wholesome,
its news serviee unexceptionable. Each issue
presents an epitome of wiiat is best worth
knowing of the world’s history of yesterday.
Its stories are told in good, quick, pictur-
eqne Edglish, and mighty interesting read¬
ing they are.
The Sunday Stab is as good os tbe best
class magazine, and prints about the same
amount of matter. Besides the day’s news
it is rich in spesial descriptive articles, sto
ries, snatches of current literature, reviews,
art criticism, etc. I . ‘ tie’s iuimatible hu¬
mor sparkles in it t i nng; Will Carleton’s
delightful letters ..re t i .ts choice offerings.
