H Marey, ut the newly discovered mines in southern Idaho. Owing to the general inse curity of the times, we traveled aft er the usual im m igrant fashion, halting wherever n ightfall overtook us. In the course of our Journey we encamped one night on Queen's river, near the boundary line of Ne vada and Idaho, then the domain of the Piutee. At th a t tim e they were generally regarded as a h a lf friendly tribe, and the occasional traveler through their territory had little to The w eather had grow n bitterly cold, and on this particular evening we h ad built a rousing fire, the rud dy blaze of which stream ed through the duek of evening, lighting up that naked region until our situa tion was visible from every point. Evidently the flams of our en campment drew attention, as soon after dark three Piutes appeared in camp. The chief, leaving his fol lowers in the b ackground, drew near our fire and offered ua the u sual sal utation of \H e a p hungry I\ He was given cold biscuits, after which he proceeded to make him self com fortable. As he stood w arm ing him self we were struck by his fine proportions. Hie powerful fram e and majestic stature would have rendered him n striking object anyw h ere, and by the flickering light of the campfire he appeared colossal. His attire was savagely prim itive. Saving the customary clout and a blanket of fur skins on his shoulders, he was destitute of clothing. Shortly before turning i u . for the night some of the boys began beg ging him to give ua the w ar dance, and after some time, tired perhaps of their im p o rtunities or scenting possible grub, he thought better to yield. W ithout giving a sign of his in tentions, to our astonishm ent he leaped into the blazing bed of coals and, casting his blanket from him, began dancing in the most vigorous manner, whirling, leaping, bound ing high in air, again circling with dizzy speed, flinging h is a rm s wildly about him and all the while u ttering a succession of such whoops and yells that fairly rang in o u r oars for hours. The live Coals hopped and flew, but be kept it up, never quit ting his hot bed for fully three min utes; then, ceasing, he resumed his stolid demeanor and his blanket and for the rem ainder of the night re posed by the fire. It w as a startling feat, entirely out of the o rdinary by way of exhibition, hut ju s t what manner of dance it was, whether war dance, fire dance, ghost danco or whether it had any significance in savage life, I have never been able to determ ine.—San Francisco Chronicle.

The other day she called on a cab inet official to ask a favor for a con stituent. The grave and dignified head of the departm ent looked at her and s a id: “ My dear young lady, 1 uni afraid I cannot do what you ask, although your big brown e y e s\— “ Then the ayes have i t , \ quick as a flash the young lady said. And she got what she requested. Wash trym an is always on the lookout for , , it. It is the one thing which can , O l N t D E I \ E R S . distract the attention that has been fixed upon a burning building. It can break up the stateliest proces ■Ion that ever moved. It can also make the face of a m o tonnan o r a car driver or a teamster, even though he be a hackman, turn white. W henever you see it or hear of it, It is the same old unchangeable in cident. It has an element of unccr tainty which makes it fascinating. When the w inds blow, and the seas roll, and the storm rages, and the building is in flames, you can guess at the result. Yon don't k n o w ;you can't conceive the outcome of a run- \U'jo'U ^ -There comes a time In the life of ever horseman when he has no in fluence over the animal he has fos tered and petted and bragged about. This tim e is when the horse con cludes, provided the horse reasons, to go as he pleases. Pedigree, s ta ble, outfit, attention or lack of a t tention e n ter not into the runaway business. The animal, the \ s lats\ of which require no X ray scrutiny, and about w h ich a generation has capered, and on which the gadflies of many summers h ave squatted and sucked, will in a moment when peace is brooding over all creation break up the quietude by plunging and running and scurrying like a Chinese devil down the s treet or up or around the corner. The more cumbersome the vehicle in the rear of a runaw a y horse the greater his speed; the more crowded the thor oughfare the more zigzag the course of the animal, w ith nostrils d istend ed and ears laid back. He is never in line with the conveyance. It is always at geographical variance with his t a i l There is som ething unexplainable in the rapidity w ith which the news of a runaw a y travels and the effect upon persons in the houses on the line of it. S tart a runaw ay from the intersection of Twenty-third street and S ixth avenue, and people at the corner of Tw enty-third street and Fifth avenue will be on the lookout for it in two seconds, and teams and urchins and dogs will bo getting out of the way. A man who has made a study of runaw a y s said to a Sun r e p o r ter: \ I was in one of the biggest retail houses on Sixth avenue, shopping, when the salesman, to my asonish- ment, asked me if the runaw ay of a few m inutes previous had done any damage. I asked him how he knew there w as a runaw ay. Ho said he h eard it and that he saw it. And when I questioned him ho told mo h e h ad missed m aking a sale in order to see the runaw ay and said it was the first one he had seen since he had come to New York. It seem ed to lim b er him up. He kept talk ing about i t as long as I traded and said as I was leaving he supposed it would be in the papers.\ And the runaw a y item has a good show for placet, generally speaking. There is no rule for it, hut you will notioe th a t it usually comes next to the advertising. A man who has been on the m a k e up of a morning newspaper m a n y years said ho could tell a runaw a y item in type w ith his eyes shut, nnd he always found room for i t A peculiar thing about this item is th a t it rarely has a gen esis. The m an who first tells of it, the policeman who makes a report of it and th e r e p o rter who w rites it seldom enlighten the readers us to the cause of the runaway. The par agraph usually says the horse s ta r t ed from a certain point, but not o f ten does it tell w h a t started him. Thia is n o t the reporter's fault. Ho simply doesn't know. Nobody knows.—New York Sun. LONG ISLAND MarbleSGraniteWorks oS Main Street, H E M P S T E A D . L. I. ..Monuments and Headstones..
