MARLBOROUGH MAGNIFICENCE.

.l‘he Young Duke Determined to Have His
Liveries Made of Royal Red.

At Queen Victoria’s latest drawing
"00111, the Duchess of Marlborough
vore more jewels than any one pres-
int. Her tall diamond crown and the
necklace of famous Vanderbilt pearls
raused a great sensation. The coach
I1 which the American duchess drove
,o the palace is said to have eclipsed

and it was
adorned, in addition to the ducal coat
if arms,'. with a princely coron-et,‘as
,:l1e Duke of Marlborough is a prince
)f‘the Roman Empire—~a title inher-
.ted from his great ancestor’s services
:oo. England’s German allies. There
were three footmen behind the coach,
who wore red liveries covered with
gold, specially embroidered by Italian
workmen. .

An amusing story in connection with
:hese red'liveries is going the rounds
)f London society. It seems that the
young duke was determined to have
:he particular shade of red which is
zonfined to royal use, and it was only
because the tailors steadfastly refused
:0 make the liveries in that color that
he was obliged to accept the shade
:hat has been used by his ancestors.

In spite of—orjperh-aps because of—
111 this magnificence, we are told that
the Duchess of Marlborough refuses
:0 subsoiibe to the fund f01 maintain-
11g five American beds in the leading
London hospitals on the ground that
she is no longer an American. —Puri-

DEATH OF AN AGED DECOY STEER.

The Old Fellow At Last Met His Fate as
Do All Traitors.

After having enticed thousands of
his fellow creatures to their doom.
Bill, the big steer who acted as decoy
in the abattoir across the Schuylkill,
Zias sheenmbed before the fury of one
)f his victims. It was a nefarious
i-alling was Bill’s. His duties con-
sisted of leading other cattle into the
daughter pens, lulling their suspicions
Lnto fancied security, establishing
:ltem in the right‘positions in the right
guarters, and seeing that no bad
breaks were made while they await-
ed their fate. Bill had performed this
luty as far back as the oldest em-
ployee of the stock yards can remem-
ber. There is a tradition that‘he was
:aken to the stock yard when it was
founded and there trained. in h-is life
work of enticing his fellow creatures
zo destruction. This, if true, would
make the time he had been engaged
-n this reprehensible business more
:han twenty-two'years. Another and
nuch younger steer, apparently real-

:‘ellow, charged furiously at him and
gored him so badly that Bill died the
lext day.

Louis
recent
visit to the Pima Indians of Califor-
nia as a revelation in some respects.

The writer has known this tribe of
Indians on their reservation as a.
fierce, sullen, obstinate and cruel lot
of savages, with a. record second to
not even the Apaches for horrible
butcheries of white settlers, and up-
speakable barbarities upon their ene-
mics in warfare. It was therefore a
surprise to see over 150 of the boys
and girls of these desert savages come
marching into the chapel with mill-7
tary precision, dressed in handsome,
neat-fitting garments, wearing linen
shirts, and with their hair brushed
with as much nicety as that of a city
dude.

But the surprise did not end there.
When the opening hymn was an-
nounced one of the Apache Indian
girls that ten months before was mn-
n-ing wild on the desert south of the
Gila, readily turned to the number,
and, handing the writer the book,
asked in good English if he would not
take 1331 t with them. Some of them
sing splendidly, and P1of. Hall, the
superintendent of the school, says
they are natural musicians. Several
of the younger ones have learned to
play the organ, and with the French
harp they will make an ave-rage city
gaznin ashamed of himself. Hugh
Patton, one of the monitors, plays the
piano very well, having picked the ac-
complishment up without any instruc-
tion. .This Indian is a peculiarity in
Indian life. Some years ago he had
learned the English language and
acted as» an interpreter from that time
till the opening of the school, which
he entered, where he has since re-
mained. He discarded his Indian
name and assumedan English one,
and in the thiee yeais has acquired
a good English education.
medium size 1"athei dark, but with
the appearance of a student. He has
done much to induce his people to
adopt civilization, and is, of course,
a warm friend of the school.

An advantage here is that the boys
and girls are in close proximity to
their relatives and friends, and are al-
lowed to visit back and forth, which
could not be the case in a foreign
school. This is of double advantage,
for the educated children visiting their
parents, brothers and sisters tend to
raise them in the plane of civilization,
and the change on the reservation
during the past year is marked. The
boys are allowed to go home two
weeks in the summer. and several are
allowed, to go and as'sust in planting
crops. When they leave the school
they are given their Indian clothes,
but they never 'fail to return Wearing
better or at least more expensive
clothing than the school furnishes
them.

At times the Indian boys are allowed
to work on the fruit farms adjoining
the, school. and they are given their
wages to spend as they please. They
usually invest them in clothing, and
some of them have expensive suits.
They do their work well, and their la-
her is preferred to that of the Mex-
leans. When they are out working
this way they not only earn the wa-
ges, but they learn to depend upon
themselves.

This idea of the industrial branch
of the $111001 is the conception of Prof.
Rich. Ills theory is that it is impos-
sible to take a savage and so educate
him in letters and science that he will
be able to successfully take hold of
any of the higher branches in life,
or, in ot§1e1 words, that it is impossi-
ble to make a Greek professor out of
a. half-naked savage. But he does ar-
gue that they can be made good citi-
zens, able to read and write, and,
more than all, to support themselves
by tilling the soil. After this point is
reached they will rise higher them-
selves and of their own inclination,
until the last instinct of the savage
will have disappeared. '

A correspondent of the St.

Charles Kean Capped It.

When Charles Kean was playing
the part of Richard III., his fearful
grimaces in character paralyzed 'all
the other actors with fright, much to
his amusement.

011 one occasion a new man had to
take the part of the sentinel who
awoke Richard. When asked, “Who
is them?” he had to say, “’Tis I, my
lord; the village cock hath twice pro-
claimed the hour of morn.”

But as Kean was making such
fearful grim-:63 and scow-hng at him,
the poor fell ow forgot his part, and
could only steamer, “’Tis I, my lord,
'tis 1, my lord; the—the village cock!
Tls I, my lord, the—Ashe village cock!"

By this tune there was a decided tit-
ter all over the house, and Kean said,
"Then why the mischief don’t you
crow?” which, needless to say,
brought down the house. —Tid Bits.

* Ira dre s Pills

The difference between these pills and all other medicines is
told in the following Statement-of facts:
Ist. They have been in aCtive demand in the markets of the world since 1770,
, or for nearly one hundred and thirty years.

2d. They are purely vegetable, and are made of the purest and highest
class drugs. obtainable.

3d. They are kept for two years in our storehouses after being made, and
no pills are sold until they. are TWO YEARS old. This allows them to
become thoroughly mellowed and makes of them the very best
~and safest cathartic medicine that it is possib‘e eto' procure.

4th. They never become inured to the system, that is, the same dose
will always produce the same effect. This cannot truthfully be said
of any other medicine. There are others who claim it, but
demonstrations show it to be true only of BRANDRETH'S PILLS.

5th. They never produce griping or pain unless the stomach is in a very
acid condition, and then only if the dose is a large one. In doses of
one or two pills they never cause pain or other inconvenience.

6th. One pill taken after a heavy meal will relieve distress immediately.

7th. BRANDRETH’S PILLS are composed one-third of the best extract of sense.-
parilla that can be made. It is highly concentrated and it makes of these
pills the best blood purifiers that you can get, one 25-cent box con-
taining more of the active blood-purifying principle of sarsaparilla
than a dollar’ 5 worth of any liquid preparation in the market.

8th. One or two, taken every night, will cure rheumatism in almost every
instance.

9th. They are a pOSItive and effective remedy for constipation and for all the
long list of ills that follow in its wake—such as dyspepsia, dizziness,
drowsiness, coated tongue, foul breath, headache, pain in the stomach,

Take one or two pills every night—one is usually enough—and

\

etc.
be certain that a cure will follow.
They are the best complexion pills. After you have taken them“ for a
few nights, your skin will assume a wholesome, healthful color, your
eye a brilliant lustre, and sallowness and pimples will disappear.
BRANDRETH’S PILLs NEVER injure~—you are always in better health
after takmg a dose—they are the safest medicine to give children and
women in delicate health. One pill is usually sufficient.

No medicine is made with such infinite care as BRANDRETH’S PILLS
-—no medicine but BRANDRETH’S PILLS is kept for Two YEARS before
they are boxed to be Sold.

Except in sudden and acute sickness, when the dose should be from.
four to eight pills. the best results are obtained by taking one or two
pills every night for a week or two. They act on the liver and leave
that organ in a perfectly healthy state, and when your liver is right
your blood is pure, and you are well. Don’ t bull3 3our liver with
powerful medicine, but coarz it with BRANDRETH' S PILLS.

BRANDREIH’ s PILLS are sold throughout the world, w ith and without
