I, A STRANGE WAR ON SATAN.
‘ How the Plnvblllsof a Church “’ere Used
by the Salvation Army.

Last year one of the big circuses ex-
perienced considerable annoyance
throughout Central Indiana because of
the warfare waged against it by the
Salvation Army. The Salvationists
met the circus men on their own
ground and declared war by pasting

.tiny strips of paper bearing Scriptural
texts and religious warnings upon the
circus billboard displays.

The trouble began at. Muncie. A
member of the Salvation Army at that
point, seeing popular attention di-
rected toward the circus billboards, de-
cided that they furnished the best me«
dium by which to introduce his Scrip-
tural texts to the public. \Vithin the
next half hour those circus displays
were completely metamorphosed. The
picture of an aeronaut falling in a par-
achute from a balloon bore the in-
scription, “Sinner, you are bound for
hell. Go the other way.” The. long
neck of the giraffe was labelled, “The
straight and narrow way is the best.”
The snake-charmer, wrapped in the
folds of a monster serpent, admonished
to "Shun the deadly cup; it stingeth
like an adder.” An acrobat, turning
a somersault in midair, apparently
grasped in his hand the question,
"Where will you spend your eternity ?”
The lion-tamer, in a cage with sev-
eral beasts which apparently were
about to make a meal of him, was ad-
monished to “Watch and pray.”

It is safe to say that no circus bills
11' er attracted m01e general attention
or caused more comment. —Chicagc

Literary Taste.

The literary taste usually manifests
itself at an early age in a passion for
books. Many men of letters have be-
gun to read almost as soon as they be-
gan to talk. To the youthful enthusiast
in literature his adoration for favorite
works and authors is an emotion as

‘ profound and sacred as that of a reli-
gious experience or a first love affair.

' HUNTIN’G WILD Houses.

Queer Fun for Sportsmen in the Rocky
Mountains.

“You may talk about hunting deer
and elk and mountain goats, but for
real sport horse hunting is destined to
lay all such shooting in the shade in
the near future.”

This remark was made by one of
the cattle kings of Utah. Contlnuing
he said:

“In the Rocky Mountain ranges
there are now roaming about fully
2, 000, 000 horses that may be said to
belong to no one.

“In the Rocky Mountains in Mon-
tana, Utah, Nevada and elsewhere it
is now generally acknowledged that
range horses are a public nuisance,
and they ought to be \exterminated.
They eat up the grass needed for the
cattle, and they are as hard on a
.range as sheep. The horses eat grass
right down to the roots. thus in dry
weather completely destroying the
range they graze over.

“The sport of hunting horses is en-
couraged by stockmen, and can be in-
dulged in with impunity. It is de-
stined, I think, to become very popu-
lar, as it is exciting and somewhat
dangerous."—Detroit Free Press.

The Bicycle in Japan.

Mr. Gilbeit must 1"‘eu1itc “The Mi
kado." Japan has adopted the bicycle.
No more graceful, posing, diagonal at-
titudes; those three little maids now
scorch home from school on pneumatic
tyres, says Saturday Review. The
Tokio post-office officials new ride
with impunity, and, according to lat-
est information, the metropolitan p-o-
lice are sending expensive orders to
two local workshops. For not only
does Japan ride, but the deft ,fingers
of her craftsmen are busy making ma-
chines. Moreover, they make them
well; for—it sounds incredible, but the
statement comes 011 very good author-
ity—theYokohama Bicycle Works have
lately received an order for one hun-
dred machines from America! and the
American machinists are supposed to
be licking creation in the bicycle busi3
ness. There is a melancholy sense of
disillusion about it all. The lover of
Oriental strangeness may now give up
Japan in despair. It was bad enough
when 1110 Mikado’s army took to trou-
sers and torpedoes; it was worse when
his subjects descended to common
journalism; but with the advent of the

bicycle the most fatal link with the

11npi1-1111'cs1111e West has been forged.

A VALUABLE DOLL.

"'11s the Means of Illaking Peace Between
Gen. Cook and the Apaches.

That, dolls can serve a purjosc be-
side amusing a child is shown by the
following anecdote told by Major John
G. Bourke, formerly on the staff of
General Crook, the great Indian fight-
121'.

It was in Arizona. while the general
was try ing to put a band of Apaches
back on the lese1vation. He had been
chasing them for a month without suc-
cess. and he did not think it right to
openly attack them, since they had
committed no overt act, although no
one knew how soon they vould.

One day a party of soldiers captured
.1 little Indian girl and brought her to
the felt. She was quiet all day, say-
ing not a word, but her black beads of
eyes w .1t( bed everything. “'hen night
came she broke down and sobbcd as a
white child would. ' -

The fort was in despair until Mr.
Bourke had an idea. From the adju—
tant’s wife be borrowed a (loll that
was a beautiful creation. that had
some to the adjutant’s little girl the
previous Cluistmas “'hen the voung
Apache was made to understand that
it was hers to keep, her sobs ceased
and she fell asleep.

When morning came the doll was
still clasped in her arms. She played
with it all day, and seemingly all
thought of ever getting back to the
tribe, under the spell of enchantment
placed over her by the (1011, had left
her.

Not so the officers of the post. how-
ever, for the thought of having to
keep the girl without having the tribe
to make some inquiries as to her wel-
fare bothered them to no inconsider-
ablc extent. Several days passed with
no sign of overtures being made by
the. tribe. Finally. in despair the girl,
with the doll still in her possession,
was sent back to the tribe.

\‘Vhen the girl reached the tribe,
with her proud prize tightly grasped
in her hands, she created a. sensation
the Apaches, and her mother
later went back to the post with her.

She was received in a hospitable
manner and kindly treated. and the ef-
i‘cct of her visit was such, that through
uer overtures were made to the tribe,
with the result that soon afterward
the band moved back on the reserva-
11011.

SKILFUL _ SURGERY.

ASTONISHING RESULTS OF A NEW

PROCESS IN BONESETTING. .

 

By it Patients are Able to be About With—
in Twenty-four Hours After Sustaining,
a. Fractured Limb—A Practical Test of
the Ambulatory Bandage.

That a man Who is unlucky enough
to fall and break a leg doesn’t any
longer have to spend weeks impris-
oned in bed. waiting for the fractured
limb to mend but may be up and about
sometimes within twenty-four hours
after the accident was made plain to
the doctors assembled in the surgical
section of the Academy of Medicine in-
Vest Forty~third street, New York. ’A
workman who fallen off a scaffold a
fortnight before walked about the room
without the aid of crutches and with
only the slightest perceptible limp, al~
though his leg, 'hich had been broken,
was still done up in plaster of paris.

The ambulatory system has been in
use in Berlin for some time. It is
simple. In the case of the fracture of
either of the- bones of the lower leg
the patient is placed in a recumbent
position and the injured bones are set
in place and bound securely with an
ordinary muslin roller bandage. No
cotton whatever is used in the bind-
ing. Outside of this roller a plaster of
Paris gauze bandage. is wound. This“
burdens and leaves the limb incased in
a plaster cast which generally extends
from the toe tip to the knee. joint. It
holds the broken parts of the limb im-
movable, and hardcns rapidly. The
best quality of cast and bandage is al<
ways employed, and the patient is en«
couraged to walk without crutches, af-
ter twenty-four hours. Care is taken,
of course, to avoid'all possibility of in-
flammation setting in. The reason the
patient can walk so soon is that the
weight of the body is supported upon
the upper part‘of the ambulatmy cast,
which acts as a crutch.

D1. Fiske cited a case where a pa-
tient 72 years old had been able to
walk within eight days after the appli-
cation of the ambulatory splint. The
healing of the bones goes on while the.
patient is walking about just as if he
were lying down, as the fractured
limb is in no way disturbed by the ex—
ercise. In fact, the reuniting of the
fractured parts is hastened, and the
stiffness of joints resulting from the
old method of keeping a patient in bed
and quiet is greatly reduced—New
York Sun.

A SOUTHERN SHERlFF

W'ishing to Save the Jail, lilo Made No
Resistance to the Lynching.

“Speaking of lynchings," said Jen-
kins, “remipds me of an incident that
occurred in one of the country par-
ishes of Mississippi several years ago.
I was making a trip through a certain
section of that state when the com-
munity was startled by a peculiarly
atrocious murder and assault. The of-
fair took the people by the ears, and
for a few days, or until the culprit was
captured, there was a perfect storm
of fury on the part of the inhabitants
of the county in which the murder
took place. The culprit was a negro,
and it happened that the parish of—
ficials were the first to lay hands on
the fellow. He was conveyed, with
some show of secrecy, to the jail and
locked up. W'ell, it didn’t take long
for the news to spread, and then. the
people, as usual, began to make ready
for the lynching; They did not seem
to consider the matter that the negro
was in the. hands of the county—not a
bit of it. I was curious to see how the
affair was to turn out, and some little
while bcfom the mob started for the
jail I set out for that institution. When
I reached the location, imagine my sur-
prise when I‘ found the sheriff calmly
seated on the front steps of the jail
with a rifle in his hands. ~Alongside
of him was the negro, with fear dc-
picted on his face. Both were watch-
ing the road. Approaching the sherifi,
I asked him why he did not have the
negro locked up and if he didn’t know.
the mob was coming to lynch him.

“ ‘Oh, yes,’ he answered, ‘I know the
boys are coming, and that’s why I’ve'
got the “nigger" ready. You see,’ he
remarked, apologetically, ‘I know the
fellers are bound to have the “nig-
ger,” and then the jail is brand new.’

“While I was pondering over this
reply the sherifi added. ‘And it would
be a pity to have the new doors
broken up.’ ”—New Orleans Times-
Democrat.

 

An American Luxury

“The thing I especially enjoyed af-
ter a somewhat lengthy sojourn on
the other side was a real genuine Am-
erican grate fire,” commented the
traveler. “In London I felt as if I
was burning something very precious
with the landlady charging Sixpence
a s'cuttle for coal. I remember sitting
around a stove in an English hotel.
The weatherwas cold and the coal in
the stove bunched together. I took a
poker and stirred it up. -

“ ‘That makes it burn faster,’
mentedthe landlord, gravely.

“ ‘That’s just what I want,’ I
plied. ,

“A red faced. hearty Englishman
broke in: ‘You Americans are deu-
cedly thin-blooded, don‘t you know.’ ”
