The heathen Chinee mentioned in yes-

A Swiss carpenter, named Fredericks,
attempted to reach the ground from the
roof of the armory of the Galveston Ar
tillery, yesterday, by Bliding down the
tackle used to hoist shingles, and catch-
ing the wrong rope fell heavily on the
sidewalk, lie was bruised about the

strange to say, were broken.
i'aitticulars of tile coroner's inquest j
Friday evening about 9 o'clock Mr. J.
Berry, late President of the Texas
Y*' Mutual Insurance Company, went to
the beach and engaging a bath-bouse i'n-
'•retsed, put on a bat.l>ing suit, and went
"to the water. This was the last Been
°« him alive. About 10:30 o'clock the
•°y in charge of the bathing-houses be-
alarmed at bis continued absence
»nd set a watch to try to find the missing
About one o'clock Saturday morn-
1Dg Mr. O'Shaughnessy, the man who had
l>«en requested to be on the lookout for
Mr. Berry, found the body and carried
'he news to the police station. The Ser-
jeant and an officer proceeded at once to
the spot and taking possession of the ef-
fects of the deceased, which were in his
oathing-room, took tliem to the station
house.
'•'he following is a list of the clothing,
>'tc , of the deceased : Dark pair of pants,
°ng traveling duster, straw hat, pair of
'"oots, bosom shirt, undershirt, socks,
tC*lvanized watch and chain, silver fruit
i^nife, gold collar button, gold sleeve
uttons, and a number of letters, receipts
and other papers. Among hia papers
the license of Mrs. Miller, entitling
tier to hold spiritual seances, a number
°» tickets of admission to Mrs. Miller's
nances, and a number of insurance pa-
per*.
Mr. Berry was about forty live years
of age,and has a wife and family in Dal
i*". and an uncle who resides near Hons
ton.
tne cause OF IUS DROWii- <G
was probably the fact that the west-
erly winds of Friday forced the tide to
set rapidly across the fc.'lf shore, pro-
ducing a strong undertow, and as the
tide was very low, the unfortunate man
ventured out too far and, without know-
ing its force, came within the track of
the tide and, loosing his fcDting, was un-
able to regain it. The theory that he
was seized with cramps is not tenable,
as his body shows no signs of contrac
tion or BpaBms; in fact, directly the re-
verse, as it was perfectly limp when
found, and did not commence to beooma
rigid or set until after being laid out by
the undertakers, some four hours after
it was taken from the water.
Constable Cahill was on the beach at
the time the body was found, and, has-
tily gathering the evidence together, he
summoned the coroner and jury, and
before sunrise had the body in the hand*
of the undertakers.
The following is a copy of the evi-
dence taken at the inquest held yester-
day morning by Coroner R. D. Johnson :
D. Coster, being sworn, said ; I do not
recognize the deceased. Never heard
hia name, lie came to the bath-liouse
last night about nine o'clock and asked
me for a bath room ; he undressed him-
s-lf, put on a bathing suit and went into
the water. It was a moonlight night. I
have not heard from or seen him since.
Missed him about 10:30 p. m., as he
should have been out at that time.
Michael O'khaughnessy, on being sworn
said : I met the boy that keeps the bath
house; he told me that deceased bad
gone into the water about two hours be-
fore and had not returned. I looked out
for a time and found the body lying as
it is now.
Sergeant Wm. A. Hatchings, of the po-
lice force, on being sworn said : About
1 o'clock this morning, Mr. Shaughnessy
repoited to the Police Station that a man
was drowned at the beach. I immedi-
ately went to the body and found it in
about one foot of water. Officer Busch
and I took the body and placed it on the
b.-acb, a little distance from the water.
We then weftt to the bath-house to the
room deceased had undressed *n, and
found his clothing and some papers,
His name is supposed to be J. R. Barry.
Ha was an inarrance agent in the city of
Gilveston, and has a farr'ly at Dallas,
Texas.
The Terdict of the jui / reads as fol
lows :
We, the jurors on our oaths, do say
that the deceased came to his death on
the night of flie 10th of July, 1875, from
accidental drowning while bathing in
the Gulf : Wm. A. Hutchings, Daniel
McNulty, C. J. Duffey, Thos. Mangan,
Geo. W. Bentinck, Michael O'Shangh-
nensr.
The friends of the deceased called at |
the undertaker's yesterday, and, after re-
co,;jizing the body, ordered it to be I
placed in a metallic case and kept until |
his wife, who is now in Dallas, con ar-
rive here and take charge of it.

Geometrical Progrexslon.
A man laboring under the combined
effects of sun and rum, after having de-
scribed nearly every angle possible in
his perambulations on Tremont street,
yesterday noon, attempted to illustrate a
horizontal, and succeeded in making a
severe cut on his chin, from which he
bled profusely. He was taken to the po-
lice station and subsequently released
O. K. at a later hour of the day, and
went on his way rejoicing, promising to
contine his geometrical studies in future
to paper, and in his walk to only make
straight lines and perpendiculars.
Tbe faba Tarn Vereln's Picnic.
an enjoyable occasion.
%eautiful ladies, fine music and
athletic exercises.
One of the most enjoyable picnics of
the aeason occurred at Wurziow's Garden
last night. It was the occasion of the
first annual celebration of the Jahn Turn
Vereins, and -all the other Geiman socie-
ties combined to do them honor.
•Mie Turn Vereins are in reality a so-
ciety of athletes, but combine with that,
as the Germans always do, a degree of
eociability that all other nations may
envy, but none can equal.
The exercises consisted, first, of music
by the orchestra, under the leadership of
Max Fehrman, by whom the following
programme was rendered in an artistic
manner:
Wake up! Germania.
The German Song (Lied.)
The Old Ladies' Waltz (Grandmamma.)
The Night.
Schnaollis.
This was followed by a gymnastic dis-
play, in which Mr. Wm. Opitz took the
e&d, both for grace, muscle and finished
execution. Then came the human pyra-
mids, followed by the ball.
The Railroad Company ran' their cars
until 1:30 a. m., to accommodate the pic-
nickers, and the crowd remained almost
t J the last.
The decorations of the buildings and
grounds were in perfect taste, and the
jlending of the flags of all nations with
the colored lights of the Chinese lan-
terns produced a most pleasing effect.
This notice would be incomplete were
mention not made of the ladies and their
faultless dancing, which was Buch as to
at once challenge competition.
A more orderly and yet genial congre-
gation of people it would be difficult to
find. The traditional lager flowed like
water, but a German drinks always in
the presence of his family, and thus
never loses his self-respect, while some
other nationalities remove the ladies
with the cloth, and thus are led to com-
mit excesses which our Teutonic friends
constantly guard against by the presence
of their wives and children.
The Concordia Singing Society, under
the leadership of Messrs. Savadiel and
Brinies, sang the national airs of the
Fatherland between the dances, so that
there wa»-no cessation of muBic during
the whole evening. It is a pleasure in
noting an occasion of this nature to be
able to state that not an instance of dis-
order of any kind marred the evening's
entertainment.

Cowardly Attack-,
Last evening about five o'clock James
Hunter, an ex-policeman, and John Cos-
ser, the assistant jailor at the county jail,
were sitting in the market joking with
erch other, when Cosser, becoming en-
raged at some remark of his companion,
got up and without any warning hit him
a terrible blow on the back of his head,
and following it up, the two men fell by
the heels of a pair of horses which wero
hitched to a wagon standing in front of
where they had been Bitting. The com-
batants were separated, when it was
found that Mr. Hunter had been cut on
the back of his head, the wound being
about four inches in length. The wound-
ed man was taken to Schott's drug store
and his head'sewed up by Dr. Schiner. •
Mrl Hunter insists that the wound was
inflicted by Cosser, who, he Bays, struck
him with his pistol, while Mr. Cosser
sayb it was caused by a kick from one of
the horses.
The charge of fighting was entered
against both of the parties, and a hearing
of the case will be had before the Re-
corder to-morrow morning.

ChrlMtcnlng the Armory.
Yesterday afternoon a number of mem-
bers of the Galveston ArtiHery assem-
bled at their new armory now going up
at the corner of Avenue 1 and Twenty-
second street, to pour out a libation in
honor of the successful prosecution of
the work thus far. A keg of beer " on
ice" was at band, aud the carpenters
having been called together, the fluid
was passed around generally. The frame
of the building is well put up,
and is now being closed in. The
roofing is being laid, and it will not
be long before the structure is
up and open for the use of the com-
pany and for Terpsichorean pleas-
ures. The dancing hall on the upper
floor will be sixty feet wide by one liun
dred and twenty feet long. It has a
high ceiling and commodious appear-
ance, and will supply a need long felt.
The gable ends of the roof were orna
mented with green boughs, as the car-
penters say, to bring " good luck.
Among those prosont were Messrs. Mott,
Steele, John, Shelton, Moore, Robinson,
Erhard, Hughes, Baulard, French

The man who telegraphed the weight
of Mrs. Sartoris's baby all over the
world must be a vicious old b&tclielor.
He knew vety well that it would create
a stir in motherly circles. The idea that
so much notoriety should be given to a
10J pound boy is preposterous, when
they are popping into Texas eveTy day
turning the scales at 12 and 14 pounds.
Over on Bolivar, where there is little
growth but musquitoea, they beat the
world on heavy infants. When the
news about Saratoris, Junior, was spread
abroad, people talked and talked. The
whale was ignored.
Mrs. Puffinblow went to see Mrs. T.
Bug, and when there Miss Snoozer
stepped in.
Mrs. P. (taking up the News )—As I
live, the reporters have found out how
much little Sartoris weighs !
Mrs. T. B.—Yes, they are always put-
ting in where they have no business.
Miss S.—Oh, it's honid,horrid,horrid !
The idea of publishing the weight of
that little baby ! Oh, it's awful, awful,
aw—and she fell back pale as a ghost.
Mrs. P. called for the smelling bottle,
which was bought, and the application
of the article produced a reaction.
Mrs. Col. T. Bug, as soon as the fuBS
was over, laid aside her hat, caught her
handkerchief in her right hand and de-
livered a scatlrng pb'llipicagainst news-
papers. Her speech is too good to lose
and therefore it is given in full :
" Now this is too much. If I had my
way with those abominable men who
are always pnblisbing little domestic
matters that they have no buBineBS with,
I should creosote them alive. If I was
only a man, wouldn't I make it
hot for them. Never a day passes
but some of the newspapers get after
some harmless woman. If they can't
say anything bad of her they ridicule
her. That is one reason I want civil
rightc—to be able to talk this sensation-
alism, this busy-body journalism down.
I woild commence on that husband of
mine, who, just like t'm, was fooled
awaj up the bay to see a whale. He
shouldn't sleep. No! I am down on gos-
sip, and though I read the Heme Journal
(in fact, I couldn't do without it) I would
oppoie this prying into secrets that ought
to be kept inviolate."
Mrs. T. B. sat down, and bending over,
said, " how do you feel, dear Miss
Snoozer 1"
Miaa S.—I'm feeling better ; but it's
shocking—have you got a Home Jouraal
with you?
The trio soon settled down to a genu-
ine, old-fashioned chat about the choice
Col. Puffinblow's Bon had made for his
future happiness.
The weight of a baby, to go back to
the subject, does not amount to a row of
pins so far as its intrinsic value is con-
cerned. There is a man in this town
who weighed at birth fifteen nonnds.
His parents said he was going to be a
whale. The pride of an admiring circle.
He is now forty years old and stands five
feet four in his shoes—and half the time
he caa't stand. Heavy babies are t-o
lazy to squeal—that ia one thing to their
credit A little, noisy boy can cry on
more keys than are touched by a modern
prima aonna.
An old man who lives up in Palo Pinto
county was interviewed on the weight of
babiet. He was asked how his county
stood on the popular queBtion. Said he
" You are referrin' to the royal baby I
'Bpose. I mean that's what makes you
ax the question. Well, my Delia has
got a boy that will lay over two of them
Sartorfses." He went on to state that
heavy babies were oommon in his region
and w>und up by saying that presB re-
portern ought to go West when baby
items get scarce.

Bought to hide himself beyond the hori-
zon. The gentle breeze from the south
came across the island laden with the
sweet perfume of the jessamine and ole-
ander, the few clouds tnat swept
athwait the sky, seemed as chariots
of a ghostly raci, the dull rattle of
stray vehicles over the streets wrs
a faint renrnder of life in our proud
city and the subdued rumble of the
ropes.as the sail was raised aloft, were
the harbingers that spoke of the roman-
tic pleasure in which a dozen ladies and
gentlemen were about to embark. In
the midst of « busy life it is a great bless-
ing to be able to float out upon a sea of
temporary oblivion from all that is
earthly with merriment for a captain and
young life for a helmsman. The mind
relaxes, the spit it wanders at will,
-the words that are spoken are softened
by the mellow influence of an
Italian scene, the smiles of beauty kindle
a flame in the breasts of gallant protec-
tors, and the world glides out of sight
and no one cares ever t > see it again.

Thus hours seem as moments. From
one diveiiisement to another with a song
and chorus interwoven, the gay eondo

joys must have an end, and nature, even,
rebels at a surfeit of pleasure. The
mind begins to )u»„ reiose and the ves-

The Political Memoirs of Victor |
Hngo—Me Ideal Society or llie
Future—Bight and Liw-The Bo-
manclst's Autobiography.
Victor Hugo is about to publish his
political memoirs in three volumes, en-
titled respectively, "Before Ejile,"
During Exile " and "After Exile,"
and an introduction to the work bas
; u8t appeared in Paris in pamphlet
form, with the title, "Le Droit et la
Loi." From this pamphlet the Paris
correspondent of the London Times
gives the fallowing extracts:
This society of the future will be
superb, and tranquil discoveries will
succeed battles; nations will conquer
no more. They will raise themselves
and enlighten one another. People
will no longer be warriors; they will
be workers. They will find, construct
and invent. To exterminate will no
longer be a glory. It will be the re-
placing of murder by creation. Civil-
ization, which was all action, will be
composed of the study of the true and
of the production of the beautiful.
Chefs d\euvre will be incidents. Peo-
ple will be more moved by an Iliad
than by an Austerlitz. Frontiers will
be effaced under the light of mind.
Greece was very small; our peninsula
of Finisterre, laid over Greece,
would cover it. Greece was
nevertheless immensely honored by
Homer, by /Eschylus, by Phidias and
by Socrates. These four men are four
worlds. Greece possessed them, hence
her greatness. The spread of a people
is measured by its radiancy. Siberia,
that giant, is a dwarf. Colossal Africa
scarcely exists. One town, Rome, was
the equal of the universe. Whoever
spoke to her spoke to all the earth
urbi et orbi. This greatness France has
and will have. France is in this ad-
mirable—that she is destined to die,
but to die like tbe gods, by transfig-
uration. Certain nations finish by
sublimation like Hercules, or by ascen-
sion like Jesus Christ. It might be
said that at a given moment a people
At the age of sir, however, he was
serieuxand in recalling the
happy time, he seems yet to feel aglow
of pride at the military glory which
tbe greatest captain of modern times
shed over his country:
"Those were the times of Eylau, of
Ulm, of Auerstadt and Friekland—the
Elbe lines forced—Spandau Erfurt—
Salzberg carried by storm—nine hun-
dred guns vomiting that enormous vic-
tory—Wagra'm; the times when the
emperors met on the Niemen, when the
czar paid homage to the modern Csesar;
the times when there was a department
of the Tiber, when Paris was the me-
tropolis of Rome, when the papacy
was destroyed at the Vatican, and the
Inquisition was destroyed in Spain,
when the Middles Ages tradition was
destroyed in Germany, when sergeants
became princes, when post-boys were
made kings, when archduchesses mar-
ried adventurers, it was the extraordi-
nary hour; at Austerlitz Russia suing
for mercy, at Jena Prussia crumbling
to dust, at Bssling Austria kneeling
down, the Confederation of the Rhine
annexing Germany to France, the de-
cree of Berlin about reducing England
to bankruptcy, at Potsdam Napoleon
disdaining to have the sword of the
Great Frederick, and saying; J'aime la

Narrow Escape.
a dangebocs si»ot for battier8.
Although the beach has for years past
been frequented by bathing parties, it
baa been a rare thing to chronicle a case
of drowning. The beach is remarkably
free from dangerous currents and treach-
erous holes, and the fact that little chil
dren venture out at all hours of the
morning and evening Bummer after Bum
mer without accident shows that bathing
on tbe Galveston beach is as safe as at
any other watering place. But caution
should always be practiced, for under-
currents and the influence of changing
winds may cause dangerous spots and
undertows along the coast.
A narrow escape of a young lady of
this city from drowning, Friday night,
developed the existence of a depression
or hole of some extent between Twelfth
and Thirteenth streets. A party of la-
dies and gentlemen were bathing in this
vicinity when one of the former ven-
tured a short distance fiom the party.
The current was running strong at the
time and she was suddenly swept be-
yond her associates into tbe hole above
mentioned. Being unable to swim she
would moet certainly have been drowned
had it not been for the prompt assistance
rendered by Mr. Wm. Howard, who, at
the risk of his own life, rescufd her
from a watery grave. Owing to the
great strain upon his strength he was so
used up on reaching shore that for some
time he was unable to move. Both par-
ties, though still very much indisposed,
are doing well, and it is expected that
they will soon recover. Parties visiting
the beach should remember this danger-
Otis locality.
A Semi-Arteslan Well,
A sort of semi artesian well, hereto-
fore noted in the News, has been Bunkr
at tbe Lee Foundry on Winnie street.
At the depth of a little more than a hun-
dred feet, partly through stiff clay, and
passing through some timber, near the
bottom, which has been imbedded for
centuries, water, sufficiently pure for the
purpose sought, to run a steam engine,
was obtained, and rose to within thirty
feet of the surface. The ease with
which the boring was accomplished re-
vives the idea of the importance of deep
boring in order to ascertain whether a
supply /or the city may not be obtained

Strictly Pure.—It is a fact that while
Dr. Price's Cream Baking Powder and
True Flavoring Extracts, Lemon, Va-
nilla, etc., have been made for many
years without reducing their standard of
perfect purity, not another Baking Pow-

free from adulteration. There are no
coloring, poisonous oils or acids in Dr.
Price's Flavors, nor chalk, alum, or other
injurious substances in his Cream Baking
Powder. We know the manufacturers

Yonngot while getting over Sheriff

to the calaboose, and. from thence brought
before Justice McGowan yesterday, who
fined him $5 and cost for this little pro-
ceeding.
No Nomination.—The election for the
new Alderman of the Third ward comes
off Wednesday next. But although so
close by, no move has as yet been made
by either Democrats and Republicans to
nominate a candidate to succeed Major
Baer. Several prominent Democrats of
the ward have been interviewed, but
positively declined to be elected. It is
thought that unless some action be taken
by the Democrats to bring out a man be-
fore Tuesday, the Republicans will run
in their choice with ease.

themselves around it; and thus it is
that Athens, Rome and Paris are Plei-
ades. Greece was transfigured and has
become the heathen world; Rome was
transfigured and has become the Chris
tian world; France will be transfigured
and become the human world. The
revolution of France will be called the
revolution of nations. Why? Be-
cause France deserves it, because she is
wanting in selfishness, because she is
not working for herself alone, because
she is the creator of universal bopes,
because she represents all human good,
because where other nations are only
sisters she is mother. This maternity
of generous France breaks out in all
the social phenomena of the age. Other
peoples cause her ills, she makes their
ideas. Her revolution iS not local, it
is general; it is not limited, it is in-
definite and infinite. France restores
everything the primitive notion,
the true idea. In philosophy she re
establishes loeic; in art she re-estab-
lishes nature; in the law she re-estab-
lishes right.
"Right and law, such are the two
forces. From their agreement springs
order, from their antagonism catastro-
phes. Right speaks and commands
I'rom the summit of truths; law
answers from the depth of realities.
Right cries aloud from the just, law
from the possible; right is divine, law
terrestrial. Hence liberty is right,
society is law. These two tribunes—
one where are the men of ideas, the
other where are the men of facts, the
one which is absolute, the other which
is relative. Of these two tribunes the
first is necessary, the second is useful
From one to the other is the functua-
tion of conscience. Harmony is not
yet made between these two powers—
the one immovable, the others varia-
ble ; the one serene, the other impas-
sioned. Law flows from right, but as
a river flows from the source accepting
all the contortions, all the impurities
of the banks. Often practice contra-
dicts the rule, often the corallary be-
trays the principle, often the effect
disobeys the cause; such is the fatal
human condition. Right and law
struggle without cease, and from their
dispute issue sometimes darkness,
sometimes light. The scaffold, the
sword, and the scepter, war, every
sort of yoke, from marriage, without
divorce in the family, to the state of
siege in the city, such is the law.
Right, to come, to go, buy, send, ex
change. Law, custom-house, octroi.
Right, gratuitous and obligatory.
Instruction without encroachment on
the conscience of the man in embryo
in the child, that is to say, law in-
struction—law; the ignorantin's right.,
free belief—law, State religions. Uni-
versal suffrage, universal jury, that is
right. Restrained suffrage, picked
jury, that is law. The thing it judged
is law. Justice is right. Measure the
space between. Law has the hardness,
the mobility, the encroachment, and
the anarchy of water ofteB troubled,
but right can not be submerged. In
order for everything to be saved, it is
sufficient for right to float uppermost
in a conscience. One does not swallow
up God. The persistency of right
against the obstinacy of law, all social
agitation comes thence. Chance
willed (but does not chance exist?)
that the first political words uttered in
a political way by him who writes
these lines should have been first at
the institute for right, and next in the
chamber of peers against the law. On
June 12, 1841, in taking his place in
the French Academy, he glorified re
sistance of the empire. On June 12,
1841, he demanded in the chamber of
peers the return of the banished Bona-
parte family. Therefore, in the first
case he was pleading for liberty—that
is, for right; and in the second case he
was lifting up bis voice against pros-
cription—that is, law. From this
period one of the formulas of his pub
lie life has been pro jure contra legem.
His conscience imposed upon him in
his duties of legislator a permanent and
perpetual confronting of the law which
men make against the right which
makes men so obey. His conscience
is a rule with him—a rule which ad-
mits of no exceptions. Fidelity to
this rule is what he asserts will be
found in these three volumes. ' Avant
l'Exil.' 'Pendant l'Exil,' 'Depui
l'Exil.' "
"Victor nugo then concludes," con
tinues the Times correspondence,
"with a short discourse on liberty,
and gives the explanation of the re-
publican legend—'Liberte, Egalite,
Fraternite;' 'Liberty, Equality, Fra-
ternity.' He says there is nothing to
add, nothing to retrench—they are the
three steps of the supreme ladder.
Liberty is right, equality is fact,
fraternity is duty. All the man is
there."

[From the New York Sun.l
Injuns, stranger —Injuns ? Yes,
know the hull gang of 'em from Red
Cloud and Spotted Tail down to the
toddling pappoose. I ought to know
'cm—I've fit 'em for nigh onto thirty
years."
He was a grim-looking old man, with
grizzly locks in view under his coon
skin cap. He had on a bearskin coat.
Indian moccasins, buckskin shirt and
leggins, and he held a long rifle be-
tween his knees as we talked.
"These Western railroads are rapid-
ly civilizing the country—fast killing
off Indians, wolves and buffaloes ?"
He looked around the car, which
was handsomely furnished and finished,
and sighed as be replied:
Yes, times are gittin' wuss and
wuss down this way. I've been think-
in' of goin' up to the Yellowstone,
whar a man can go out any time o' day
and git up a squar fight with a grizzly,
or raise a rumpus with the reds."
"You must be quite an old man ?"
" Only 'bout sixty. I ain't "quite so
limber on a long run, and can't sleep
quite so well with the rain pouring
down into my face, but if I thought I
wasn't good for any three Injuns on the
plains, or any grizzly that ever stood
on legs; I'd ax ye to shoot me!"
"You must have seen wild times out
here ?"
" Purty wild—purty wild," mused
the old man; " there used to be heaps
o' reds out here, to say nothing of the
wolves, -b'ars and rattlesnakes, an'
thar was times when death rose up to
shake hands with me."
"Ever taken prisoner ?"
"I mought hev been—I guess I
was!" he said, as he uncovered his
head.
" Why, /ou've been scalped !"
"They called it sculping, stranger!"
"And who did .that?"
" This same blasted Red Cloud. He
didn't use the knife, but he s'ood by
and hollered and encouraged the chap
who did do it."
"Your sensations must have been
terrible."
"TUere wasn't time to feel any sen-
satioDS, stranger. They sneaked in
on me an' Tom as we dozed, an' when
I woke up Tom was riddled, and my
sculp was hanging to an Injun's belt!"
'' And what then f"
"Nothing much. I got up and
killed two, wounded another, and
legged it up a canyon and got away.
If it ^vas to do over again, I'd git mv
topknot back or fight the whole Sioux
nation till somebody went under."
He seemed lost in reflection for a
moment, and then continued;
"I don't know what sculps ara
wuth in the market, but I guess I've
got the full value o' mine. I've
knocked over risin' of thirty Sioux
since that night, an' I guess I'll be
willin' to pass receipts."
" I suppose you've had a turn at half
a dozen different tribes ?"
"Less see," he mused. "Thar's
Sioux, Blackfeet, Pawnees, Arrapa-
hoes, Shoshones, Cheyennes, an' three
or four other tribes. They've all hunted
me, and I've hunted them, an' I can't
say as they owe me anything."
"I notice a bad scar on your face."
"Purty good scar for a common
man, but I kin show you the sculp-
lock of the Pawnee who made it. He
jumped on to me jist after I had swum
a river, an' he thought he'd got hold
of a jack-rabbit. 'Twas a bad cut,
and it kind a 'mazed me at fust, but
when I did cum to, he was gone afore
he could yell twice! I said it was a
purty good scar, but it isn't quite ekal
to this."
And he pushed up the leggin on
his right leg and exhibited a scar which
made me draw back. The foot, ankle
and the leg as high as I could sefe had
been burned by fire.
"The Blackfeet had me fast to a
stake once, ye obsarve," he explained.
"That was the time they poked each
other in the ribs an' said they had a
dead sure thing on old Carter, but th^y
wuz mistaken. They had me three
days, and I'd bin kicked an' cuffed
around until there wasn't any more
fun in it, an' then they tied me to a
stake an' lighted a fire around me.
'Twas pretty clus, stranger — pretty
clus!"
"And how did you escape?"
"Half a dozen of my old pardscame
along jist in time to knock over half
the band and save me."
There was silence again while he un-
buttoned his shirt and showed me a
bosom literally grid-ironed with scars.

They had lots of fun in a house in
the West End the other night when
old Dr. , a venerable neighbor,
dropped in to make a friendly call.
The doctor is nigh onto eighty, but
his faculties are not much impaired,
save his bearing, and as he was a great
traveler in his youth, his conversation
is always interesting. He got talking
about Greece and her struggle for in-
dependence, and spoke in warm terms
of Bozz*ris, whom he said he met
while there. Now, in the minds of
his listeners, the age in which Bozzaris
lived and acted was very indefinitely
fixed. They considered him as a con-
temporary somehow with Agamemnon
and Xerxes and "Epiphriditus," and
other Greek heroes who flourished so
many hundred years ago, when myth-
ology was one of the principal branches
taught in the public schools. They
had no idea that Bozzaris was a mod-
ern character at all. They remem-
bered how
" Bozzaris fell.
Bleeding at every vein."
but it would have been in vain for
them to attempt to tell where he fell
or when. That the good doctor could
be one of the "few surviving com-
rades" seemed incredible, and they con-
cluded his faculties were suddenly
failing, or that he was drawing a very
low bow.
You knew Bozzaris, then?" said
one of the ladies, who was mis-
chievously inclined to draw the old
man on.
Hey?"
I say you were acquainted with
Mr. Bozzaris. weren't you, doctor?"
cried the lady in a louder kej, winking
at the rest.
Ob, yes; knew him well. I have
often dined with him at his house.4'
Then the women crammed their
handkerchiefs into their mouths to
keep from laughing out, and the men
folks nudged each other and wriggled
around in their chairs in the silent
agony of mirth, the doctor meanwhile
unconscious of the fun that was going
on. ,
"Bozzaris was pretty old, wasn't
he, when you met him?" shouted
another woman in the doctor's ear.
'Pretty cold? No indeed. He re-
ceived me very warmly. Marco Boz-
zaris was a warm-hearted man. He
wanted me to take a room in his house
and make my home there while in his
country."
This was too much for some of the
company, who rushed precipitately
into the hall to keep from bursting out,
and one man went down behind the
horse barn to take a good howl. "To
think," he said to himself, " of the
doctor rooming with an old Greek who
has been dead about fourteen hundred
years '.""and then he howled again.
They got the old doctor to go on
and tell all about Bozzaris—how he
looked, how he acted, and how he
talked—digging into each other's ribs
meanwhile, and struggling with sup-
pressed laughter to hear the doctor
run on. They never had such fun—it
was better than a circus.
Finally the doctor took his depart-
ure, and when he was fairly out of ear-
shot the neighborhood fairly rang with
peals of merriment.
"He—be knew Bozzaris!" faintly
whispered one, weak with laughing
" wonder if he wasn't on friendly
terms with Julius Csesar? " and then
he doubled up again.
" The doctor must be over a thou
sand years old!" screamed another,
who was lying across a piano stool.
When this violent mirth had some
what abated it occurred to one of the
party to consult a biographical die
tionary and see when Bozzaris really
did live, and there they read: " Mar-
co Bozzaris, born 1790—died 1823,
They didn't laugh any more. It
was along about 1820 that the doctor
traveled in Greece, and he wasn't fib-
bing when he said he knew Marco
Bozzaris.—Cincinnati Saturday Night,
LIVER PILLS,
FOB THE CURE OF
Liver Complaint.
DYSPEPSIA AND SICK HEADACHE.
Symptoms of a Diseased Liver.
PAIN in the right side, under the
edge of the ribs, increase on pres-
sure; sometimes the pain is in the
left side; the patient is rarely able
to lie on the left side; sometimes
the pain is felt under the shoulder-
blade, and it frequently extends to
the top of the shoulder, and is some-
times mistaken for a rheumatism in
the arm. The stomach is affected
with loss of appetite and sickness;
the bowels in general are costive,
sometimes alternative with lax ; the
head is troubled with pain, accom-
panied with a dull, heavy sensation
in the back part. There is generally
considerable loss of memory, ac-
companied with a painful sensation
of having left undone something
which ought to have been done. A
slight, dry cough is sometimes an at-
tendant. The patient .complains of
weariness and debility; he is easily
startled, his feet are cold or burning,
and he complains of a prickly sensa-
tion of the skin ; his spirits are low ;
and although he is satisfied that exer-
cise would be beneficial to him, yet
he can scarcely summon up fortitude
enough to try it. In fact, he dis-
trusts every remedy. Several of the
above symptoms attend the disease,
but cases have occurred where few
of th<:m existed, yet examination of
the body, after death, has shown the
liver to have been extensively de-
ranged.
AGUE AND FEVER.
Dr. C. M'Lane's Liver Pills', in
cases of Ague and Fever, when
taken with Quinine, are productive
of the most happy results. No better
cathartic can be used, preparatory to
or after taking Quinine. We would
advise all who are afflicted with this
disease to give them a fair, trial.
P. S. Dealers and Physicians ordering from
otlters than Fleming Bros, will do well to write
tlieir orders distinctly, and take none bid Dr.
C. M,Lane'§ Liver Pills, prepared by Fleming
Bros., Pittsburgh, Pa., the market being full of
bane imitations. To those wishing to give them a
trial, we will forward per mail, poet-paid, to any
]iart of the United States ; one box of Tills for
uwelve threei-cent postage stamps, or one vial of
Vermifuge for fourteen three-cent stamps. AIL
orders from Canada must bo accompanied Ly
twenty cents extra.
Senator Carl Schurz has gone to Switz-
erland, where he will spend the summer
months, returning to London about the
1st of September. A month later he
will be in America, ready to begin his
lecture engagements.

lamenting that he received his first
education at the hands of an old abbe,
who taught him to read gind write and
the rudiments of Latin; he and his
brothers do not seem to have played
like boys generally do.
"Their childhood mingled with the
spring; they were fascinated by books,
by trees, by clouds; they listened to
the vague and tumultuous debate of
birds assembled in council, basking
the while in a sunny smile. Sois benie,

The old abbe is mentioned with re
spect, but hardly with gratitude:
"To have been taught by a priest in
early infancy is a fact that should be

don't find outside o' the darkest can-

afore I tad any warnin'."
"And was it a hard fight?"
"It was a purty fight, stranger, be-
cause it wuz a fa'r fight. I had a big
knife, an' lie had teeth and claws, an'
we went in ter kill. He wuz good
grit, but a leattle slow. Thar was
about thirty days after that little epv-
sode that my pard had to nuss me like
a child."
"And you mean to die out here? "
