CHIEF JOSEPH. THE MOST FAMOUS . WARRIOR ALIVE. His Visit to New York and What He Saw. He Rode in the Grant Day Parade on a. Broucho Furnished by Buffalo Bill, W’hose Guest He “'35. Chief Joseph of the Nez Perces tribe who since the death of Sitting Bull is undoubtedly the fore— most and best known chief of red men in this country, was among the crowd of visitors of distinction in New York during the week of the Grant dedication. General Illles, in his work upon the Indian war, refers in generous terms to the bravery and strategic ability of Chief Joseph, and admits that he was one of the most formidable leaders he encountered. Chief Joseph was in Washington on Government business. During his stay there he met General Miles, and the latter, with the view of impressing the famous Indian with the strength and patriotism of the American peo- ple, suggested that he should visit New York for the Grant ceremonies. Chief Joseph was willing, but did not w‘ nt to bear the necessary expense of the journey. himself. As there were no Army funds available for such a pur- pose, it seemed for the moment that CHIEF JOSEPH. General Miles’ idea would not be car- cied through. Colonel‘lVillam Cody, or “Buffalo Bill,” as he is better known, opportune-1y stepped forward and in vited Chief Joseph and his com- panions as his guests for a week. Col. Cody furnished the Indian :1 broncho from his Wild \l’est show, and he rode with becoming dignity in the procession on Grant day. Chief Joseph is fifty-seven years old, six feet tall, straight and lithe, and in appearance bears a strong resemblance to the dreaded Geronimo, leader of the Apaches of Arizona; but as General Miles and General Sherman have at- tested, his disposition is utterly unlike that savage and cruel Apache’s. Chief Joseph was taken on ,an extended sight-seeing tour through New York and Brooklyn. The ordinary show places of the two cities, to all out- ward signs, have had little attraction for the famous red man. But with the tall buildings and particularly Brooklyn bridge he was impressed be- yond speech and gave vent to his feel- ings of surprise only by a prolonged- whistle. SALUTING A FOREIGN PORT. Formality of the Courtesies Between the Ship and the Shore. saluting a foreign port Through a misunderstanding on the part of Captain Gamble, of the Brit- ish cruiser Talbot, which arrived in New York to take part in the parade of war vessels at the Grant Monument celebration, the United States forts were made to appear for the space of. nearly an hour extremely discourteous in the matter of returning salutes. The apparent carelessness was soon explained satisfactorily, ' and was found to be due to Captain Gamble’s unfamiliarity with the regulations governing salutes from the forts in the harbor. It suggests several inter- esting points of naval and mititary etiquette, which are for the most part unknown to civilians. The Talbot‘s commander ordered the regular National salute of twenty- one guns to be fired when his ship approached the Narrows, as soon as he caught sight of the American flag flying over Forts Hamilton and Wadsworth, and 'was considerably surprised when neither place returned the courtesy. to do, the saluting privilege being con- fined to Fort Columbus, on Governor’s Island. _It is expressly laid down in the Army Regulations that when a port is guarded by a group of forts within a distance of six miles, one of these—usually the mostimportant one —shall be designated as the saluting station, and that none of the others shall pay attention to any salutes which may be fired. This rule cov- ers the conditionof things existing in the harbor of New York, the three forts being within the specified dis- tance from one another. Fort Wads- worth is also plainly visible from Gov- ernor’s Island, but the line of view be- tween the latter place and Fort Ham- ilton is cut off by the intervening strip of land at Bay Ridge. The selection of Governor‘s Island as the saluting station was doubtless because 'of its position as headquarters of the De- partment of the East.- Higlily Esteemcd. “I used for think,” remarked Mean- dering Mike, “that I wasn’t popular with dumb animals.” “Are ye?” inquired Plodding Pete. “Tremend‘ou‘sly.

A recent traveller in old Flanders rapturously praises the fair Flemish woman, who is tall and graceful, with . blue eyes and hair like burnished gold.

She is an ideal mother; of a family; she has no ambition, no i love for art,‘for music or for poetry; not a whisper of rebellion against the i domination—often brutally—of her-I husband, for whom she cherishes an,I admiration, who in her eyes repre- I sents power, and which cannot bcI shaken—New York Journal. ' i I Nudles. , Many housekeepers prefer to make, nudels themselves in place of macar-g oni or those one can buy. The nudels are easily made. Take two eggs and add two tablespoonfuls of rich, clear stock and a saltspoonful of salt, stir in as ‘much sifted flour as the liquid will take up. making it into a stiff dough. Knead this dough upon the board un- til it is elastic and soft; the longer the better; then roll it out in a thin sheet. Rub the sheet very lightly with flour. . and let it remain a few moments to dry slightly before turning it over in- to a long, close roll. With a thin, sharp knife cut the roll into strips a quarter of an inch in width. Leave the pieces upon the board for a couple of hours ; to dry; then they are ready to cook and serve as macaroni. When prepar- ing nudels to use in soup only, the roll is cut into very narrow shreds. Nudels may be kept any length of time. TVhat is Worth While. Dr. Anna Robertson Brown, speak- ing in Philadelphia recently to a branch of the Association of Collegiate Alumnae, said, upon the topic “What is Worth While ?" “We may drop pre- tense. Eternity is not good for Shams. Whatever we really are let us be that in all fearlessness. thatever we are not, that let us cease striving to seem to be. If we can rid ourselves of- all untruth of word, manner, mode of life, and thinking, we shall rid our lives of much rubbish, restlessness, and fear. We may drop worry. The serene soul is strong. Worry is an infirmity, a spiritual nearsightedness, a fumbling way of looking at things and of magnifying their value. True spiritual vision sweeps the universe ind sees things in their right propor— 1on.” ’ Pol. Poi, which always takes a prominent place in the fascinating stories which have been written of Hawaiian life, is being imported into this country. It. has always, or for some time, been served in hotels and private houses at Honolulu, where it is used as corn- starch or cornmeal. It issaid to be very delicious and nourishing. The taro root, from which it is made, is raised in the Hawaiian Islands as tur- nips are raised in the United States. The flour is somewhat granulated and of a gray-blue color. It will not be eaten raw in this country, as it is by the native islanders, or sour, the con- dition when they consider it a great dainty. Poi is said to be excellent for invalids and for young children. Servants Who will not Take Tips. The servants in a well ordered J ap- anese household are the most deferen- tiral‘ beings alive. Every time they bring you a cup of tea or come to re- move a dish at dinner or breakfast, they will kneel, and bow until their foreheads touch the floor. Nor will any of them accept a fee. The other night, as we left the residence of the Japan- ese gentleman where we had been tak- ing dinner, one of his servants piloted us through the grounds to the gate. and I attempted to give him a small coin. \Vhen I offered it, he clasped his hands together and made a very low bow, keeping his head down until the carriage started.

What Else Gould She Do? “I was surprised to hear that Pen- elope had broken her engagement. I thought she was determined to stick to him in spite of the opposition of Ina-r father.” “She was, but the idiot wrote her some poetry, as he called it. And he rhymed her name with ‘let us then elope.’ That settled him.” Cincin- nati Enquirer.

T3"); Miniatures Painted on Satin and. Se! in Guts-s with a Gold or Silver Frame. (8 3: Special Arrangement with the NJ“. San.) Buttons have a conspicuous place among the dress trimmings. The most exquisite novelty is the Louis Seize button, which . is as tiny miniature painted on satin, mounted in glass, with a gold or silver frame. The back- ground may be cream or black satin, and tiny cupids sometimes supplant the young face .with powdered hair. J eweIed buttons, however, seem to have the lead, and the most popular of all is the turquoise set with rhine- stones. ' The ruling tendency in the present mode of hair dressing is to make a full soft puff all around the head. So the hair is pushed forward and held in place by long side combs circling in shape to fit the head. Three and foul of these are used, and the effect is not always becoming, especially when the locks are not very abundant.

The late war caused the Southern people to realize the utter helplessness of a purely agricultural community when thrown upon‘its own ii'esources and cut off from communication with the outside world. As the months rolled on. its became more difficult for the inhabitants of the Confederacy to supply themselves with many of the necessaries and con- veniences of every—day life. Matches, for instance, were used by millions of people, but it was impossible to run them through the blockade in sufficient quantities. It" soon became evident that they must be manufactured at home, but how was it to be done? The machinery was lacking, and also the materials. James McPherson, a 'publiospirited bookseller in Atlanta, was one of the first to attempt to solve the problem. At considerable expense, he succeeded in getting some machinery, phosphorus and sulphur through the blockade, and in a short time his match factory was in operation. The factory was situated a few miles from the city, and the matches were stored in McPherson’s book store and sold there by wholesale and retail. They were made of poplar and sold in square blocks, the factory not being provided with a machine that would separate the matches. Inexperienced workmen found it a hard matter to turn out matches that would light. At first about the only way'to make them available was to bring them in contact with the dying embers in a fireplace, but this was in- convenient, and efforts were made to improve their quality, Finally- the composition was changed, and the matches blazed up at the lightest touch . It was not necessary to'strike them. They were self-acting, and unexpected- ly broke out at odd hours of the day ' needs and saves many- a bill for Toilet Soap in'the course of a year. - Tm; J.

The clerks in the book store i 11:11 double work in those exciting days. When they were selling books they had to watch the big boxes containing the matches and roll them out into the street the moment, they began to smoke. Once in'the street, the boxes would be emptied and the contents left until they were reduced to ashes. There was not much profit in an ar- ticle containing the elements of self- _ destruction, and a night watchman had to be employed to remain in the store and drag out the boxes as soon as they showed indications of spontaneous combustion. But the factory was an Atlanta enterprise, and the people were proud of it. At least, it was a. be- ginning. It was a sign of promise, and showed that in spite of the blockade there were enterprising men in the South who had the pluck and energy to risk their fortunes and go to work to build up the industries of the coun- try.

Such a means of observa‘ tion is possible only in smooth water, and the Island of Santa Catalina which abounds in quiet bays, smooth nooks and corners and semi-tropiccon. ditions, is the only place in Southern California 'where such a craft is found. At Avalon, the picturesque . little watering place of the island1 there are two rival glass-bottomed boats. The one I went in had a win dow of heavy plate glass, about twelfi feet in length, over a well rising in . the center just above the bottom, so that-the boat can run in upon the beach without injuring it. The ob servers sit on both sides of the well; through which they look down upon the bottom, where in water not over thirty or forty feet deep the various objects are to be seen with startling- distinctness. . One of the most beautiful objects seen through the window is known as phys-ophiora hydrostatica, a high form' of jellyfish. As it pols-es in the water, slowly rising beneath the Window, it resembles an inverted thermometer, the bulb filled with mercury‘forming the float. The bulb is an air or gas buoy, and its resemblance to quicksil- ver is perfect. This buoy raises or lowers the animal at will, and its nor- mal position is at the surface. Three inches below the bulb are attached a series of delicate glasslike, organs which resemble semi-Circular pumps, called chalices. They are hollow, and a little piston drives the water out of . them with great'force, these being the locomotor organseof-the animal.

BY A PAIR OF GLOVES.- A Peculiar Method Employed to Poison 1 Court Dignitary. ’ The Nihilists of Russia have extra ordinary methods of getting rid 0‘. their official enemies. For instance, about a. year before till death of the late Czar, Count Tchere metieff was killed by a pair of pois oned gloves. ' ’ Like most of the dignitaries of th( Court, he had, in addition to his ’su perb palace on the Nevsky Prospect, a residence in the Emperor‘s palace One day, summoned in haste to thr Czar, he snatched up from a side tabh in the ante-chamber his sword, white astrachan bonnet and gloves, which as usual, were laid out all ready f0] him. The gloves were exactly like thosc he always wore, even to the extent 01 being no longer quite fresh. They had evidently been clumsily impregnated with poison, for while standing before the writing table in the library, talk ing to the Czar, he suddenly fell,to the floor with a look of intense agony upon his distorted features, exclaiming “My hands, my hands!” The Emperor, 'burly th0ugh he was’ leaped over the table, raised the Count from the floor, and laid him on the lounge, calling for assistance as he die so. At first the physicians believed that the Count had succumbed to heart disease; but when the Emperor, in de scribing the incident, mentioned the exclamation uttered by the dying man their attention was drawn to. his hands. When ungloved, the Count’s hands gave forth a strange, pungent, are ,matic odor, and were swollen and dis» colored. It was only'then that it dawned upon the medical men that the Count had been assassinated by means of his gloves. On being subjected to chemi cal. analysis, it was shown that the gloves had been impregnated with a poison derived from an Abyssinian vegetable substance little known in Europe. \ x AlWays the Same 55,- b 1'
