MILTON HENDRIX, By CragksoN & Huyr, his attomeys. Dated Omaba, June 23 1851, wldtd A SQUAW'S SCHEME. The Story of Mary Polsott, a Half- Breed, Who Married a Boston Man. Denver Tribune, June 10 Twenty-one years ago old John Poisett, a sore-eyed French Canadian, who had been on the frontier among the Indians for twenty years, took up his abode in Denver. His house was a tepee, made from the skins of rimals, tanned and then smoked his he placed upon Waze streots, on the cast side He had married an Indian squaw, who had borne him a daughter who had then arrived at a marriageable age. She had refused to marry an Indian, so her father had entered the white settlement to enable her to choose a paleface male. Now, in 1860, white women were very scarco in Denver, and a squaw oft-times stood a vory good show with the lower order of human white bipeds. In course of time a shiftless, whisky- dring fellow from Boston offered his hand, and was accepted by the Po- cahontas of the west, Poisett's daugh- ter. His mission being accomplished, Poisett folded his tent and Arab-like, silently stolo away, He returned to his own people, as he was wont to call the murderous vagabond Indians who roamed upon these plains. The gov- ernment in its wisdom at some prior day had offered a bounty for the pro- duction of half-breeds—not to ecle- vate mankind, but to degenerate the red skins. This premium of award was to be six hundred and forty acres of the public lands to each nmf every mongrel Indian or squaw born in the country. Twenty years have now passed away since Mary Powsett stepped from her moccasing —shook her Indian blanket and passed into a higher civilization, Right well has she employed her time, too, for to-day she and fler pro- geny inherit and have had set aside to them by the government sixty-four hundred acres of the public domain, which forever shall be exempt from taxation. A Walnut Storv. Chicago Tribune, The smartest Texan, and, in fact, the smartest tarmer I have ever met, 18 old Sam Graves, who livesona 1, 000-acre farm west of Waxahatchie,in Central Texas, After Mr. Graves had shown me _his cattle and cotton, he took me over to see his woods. “Well, what of it?” T said, as he pointed to a ten-acre forest. “What of it!” Why them’s black walnuts, s'r. Ten acres of 'em, Plant- ed 'em myself, ten years ago. See, they're nine inches through. Good trees, eh(” And sure enough, there were ten acres of hand-planted Jbl walnut trees. They stood about twelve feet apart, 200 to the acre—in all 2,000 ¢ “Well, how did you yet you money back?” T asked. “Black walnuts are worth $2.50 a bushel, ain’t they! I'll get 400 bushels this year. That's $1,000. A hundred dollars an acre is good rent for land worth 815 an acre, ain’t it?” “Well, what else?” T inquired, get- ting interered. ““The trees,” continued Mr. Graves, “‘are growing an inch a_year. When they are twenty years old they will be nineteen inches through. A black walnut tree nineteen inches through is worth $15. My two thousand ten years from now will be worth fifty thousand dollars. 1f I don’t want to cut them all, T can cut half of them, and then raise a bushel of walnuts to the tree—that is, get $2,5600a year for the crop. Two hundred and fifty dol- lars an acre is a fair rent for $15 land am’t it?” . ‘WHO BELIEVES THIS ? = A TFight With Snakes, Snow- ‘White, Black, Blue--Two Men Kill 87 and See More. Saratoglan, Ono day last week two farm labor- ers were sent to cut poles for scaffold- ing near the foot of Snake Hill, on the eastern side of Saratoga Lake, where they had a narrow escape from being poisoned from the bites of black snakes. As none of the parties wish to have their names brought to the notice of the public they will be omit- ted, and their adventures only will be told, Wishing to get the best timber pos- sible they sought the southern side of the hill at the water's edge, where the poles could be found the straightest and tallest. After felling a number of poles they proceeded to a pile of loose rocks and there sat down to eat their dinner. ‘The spot chosen was very much exposed to the sun, and they were in the act of steppiug down from the stones to seek a more shaded spot, and, while doing so, some of the stones rattled from their resting-place and rolled down the bank into the water. Hardly a step had been taken from the stone heap when the head of a black snake was seen to dart from a crevasse between two large flat stones. One of the men at once secured a stout club, and stepped up to kill the serpent, while his friend rolled the stone to one side with a pole which he had found at hand, While in the act of striking the snake and as if by magic, the heads of snakes were seen to dart from every opening in the stone heap, followed by their bodies, and with heads erect, their eyes flshing, and their tongues darting forth from their extended {nwu, they wmade a horrible sight to hehold, In an instant the ground was alive with the crawling, writhing creatures, who, as if by human in- stinct, surrounded the two men, who were nearly paralyzed with terror, but realizing that something must instant- ly be done, with uphfted clubs, they showered blow after blow upon the now thoroughly-angered snakes, which sent them flying in all directions as they were, with every stroke of the club, caught up and thrown into the air. One of the unfortunate men in his excitement had not noticed several of the snakes which had crawled in his rear, and not until he felt the cold and slimy body of the reptile around his neck did he realize his horrible position. Shrieking to his companion for assistance he struggled to tear the coil from his neck and did not succeed in doing 8o until the snake had bitten him once under the right ear. Fling- the bank of | Cherry creek, between Blake and | ing the body from him and nearly fainting from exhaustion he again took up his club and struck to the right and left, killing a snake with every blow. His companion, while [stamping the head of a snake, sudden Iy felt somothing crawling up his Tleft log, underneath his pants, an1 glane- ing down he discovered to his that a large black snake lad taken refuge. Before he could grao it by its tail the animal had bitten him near Tor the knee. Witha fling the sorpont was flung far into the lake. Tho snakes finding the two brave wmen were one to many for then after about an hour's battle, and as if 1 preconcerted signal, made for the pile of rocks and disappeared. Not, how ever, before several of them had been killed. The men, finding themselves the victors, proceeded (0 cxamine their wounds, and after attending to them proceeded to count the dead snakes* which amounted in number to eighty-seven, the largest of which measured seven feet and cight inches in length. Among the number was found a blue racer four feet in length, soveral large spotted adders and one, a largo white snake, nearly five feet long, and some portions of its body a8 larg round as a horse's knee. This snake was shown to the writer, and was found to be of asnow-white color, with several small bluo spots near its head. Mon are go- ing to cover the stone heap with brush, and after surrounding it with men armed wit shotguns, set fire to it, and proceed to exterminate the snakes. So far the two have experienced no bad feeling from the bites, Luckily they had on heavy coarse hoots, as several fangs of the snakes were found imbedded in the thick leatler, THREE DELIGHTED ELE- PHANTS. Thelr First Bath in Yearsand How They Luxuriated in It. Philadelphia Times, As the three elephants in the Zo- ological garden had not washed them- selves for more than two years Super- intendent Brown suddenly realized that it would be eminently proper to give them a bath tub large enough to accommodate the trio of monster pro- boscidians. The sea lion pool or seal tank could not be used, as they are too small, and it was remembered that when Empress took her last bath in the duck pond in 1879 she flopped around in such an extravagant man- ner and stirred up the mud so thor- oughly that she came out far dirtier than she was when she went in. It was clear that if the elephants were to bathe a tub would have to be built, The work was begun in April, and, as it was finished on Frid the bathers took their first dip next morning. The bath tub is oval in shape, ten feet deep, about one hundred and twenty feet in cir- cumference and Las a concrete floor and is lined with bricks. Halt an hour after the elephants, Dom Pedro, Empress and Fanny, breakfasted in the morning they were marched from their pens to the brick-covered road- way which inclines to the water in the bathing place. Here Empress became suspicious about the solidity of the roadway and stopped. The keeper, however, found several.tander places on her body with his harpoon, and af- ter two or three wicked snorts, which were echoed by her companions, she moved catiously towards the water. The plane to the poolis only about sixty feet long, but so slowly did the bathers move that fifteen minutes clapsed before Empress put one of her feet in the water; stopped, raised her trunk and trumpeted loudly. This cry seemed to dispel the fears of her companions, for an instant later DomPedro pushed his way to the front and went boldly into the water. Fan- ny plunged ir. next, taking a genuine elephantine ‘‘header” and reappearing in the centre of the pool. Empress entered very slowly until her legs were covered and then with a grunt which indicated intense satisfaction she top- pled over on her left side and sank out of sight. Dom Pedro, after sous- ing himself thoroughly and going un- der the water several times, wadéd to 'a place where the water was only about three feet deep and stood there lazily whisking his good-for-nothin, little tail at the flies, as he viuwufi with evident astonishment the pre- )Imnternuu capers Fanny was cutting. 'he Dom accepted the situation as coolly as though he bathed every day instead of once in two years, but the females fairly bubbled over with man- ifestations of satisfaction and they dived and spouted and snorted and trmnrlod nearly an hour. After splashing around fifteen or twenty minutes Fanny walked up the incline and then deliberately rolled down in- to the water again. The effect of this nowly discovered feat must have pleased her intensely, for on comin, to the surface each time her piggish little eyes sparkled joyously and she ncnm{mrml up the bath to repeat the novel performance. At the moment the spectators were most deeply interested in Fanny's per- formances Dom Pedro showed his ill- breeding by sucking a gallon or so of water into his trunk and, poking that member out horizontally until it was a8 rigid as a hoze nozzle,he discharged its contents full in the face of an ob- serving naturalist who stood near the edge of the pool. The naturalist on recovering his breath used bad lan- guage and Dom Pedro bellowed as if })rnud of his performance, The keeper had some difficulty in getting the elephants out of the water, but he finally succeeded and drove them to their pens. On the journey,however, Fanny insisted on rolling in the dust, 80 that when she reached her apart- ment she was about three times as dirty looking as when she went into the bath, she will take another dip at 1 o'clock this afternoon. An Ohio Girl Marries a Chinaman. From the Columbus (0.,) Journal, A very interesting cvent took place at Wesly Chapel last cvening, it being the second wedding in this city in which a Chinaman and an American woman were the contracting parties, The groom was Wan Koon, better known as Ben Hope Lee, and the bride Laura Cleary. They were at- tended by Wah Hah Hing, Janz Ou and Jow {lung, and Misses Helen and Belle Cleary of this city, sisters of the bride, and Miss Ida Davis, of Chillicothe. The cercmony was per- formed in the chapel by the Rev. A. 0. Hirst in the presence of a large sudience. The affair soon became noised about on the street and there was a great rush of peopls to the church, but most of them arrived after the ceremony was over. There was, however, a general promenading around to congratulate the parties. During tho coremony the mother of the bride | was greatly affected, and it was| throughout a serious ceremony, but after it was over all were gay and lively. The bride is 18 years old and was born here. Her parents, Mr | 1 Mrs James Cleary, live at No, | 627 Bast Friend street. Mr. is & plumber by trade and the is in good circumstances for laboring | people. The bride had been working in her husband’s laundry for the past | year, and sho is highly ‘spoken of by all who knew her. Ben Hope was drossed in full conventional style and the bride in black silk, with I trimmings. The presents wero very | rich, consisting of a seven-stono clus- ter diamond ring, worth 81,100, from the groom; diamond ear-drops and gold bracelots from Jow Hong, and others of less value. The bride's parents in the way of jewelry were rich, She woro an elegant gold watch and chain which her husband had presented her some time ago. After the congratulating at the chapel, the party repaired to Schneider’s restaurant. There wero twenty guests at the tables, and an abundance was served, including wines from all varts of the globe. The Chinese rice wine was pronounced the best ever tapped in this locality. The tables were seryed in all that could be obtained. The parents of the bride aro Catholies, and it is stated that Ben Hope Lee will espouso that faith. There was a social gathering at the home of the parents of the bride in the evening. They will board at the Capital Hotel, and the hushand has an ample bank account for the future. AfterFour Hundred Yenrs. Pall Mall Gazette, The proposed emigration of 60,000 Russian Jows to Spain represents a strange turn of fortune’s wheel. “In 1492, says an old Spanish historian, “the Catholic sovercigns who had long been desivous to cleanse their kingdom from the stain of Judaism, at last put thewr hands to work, They had at various times previously as- sembled for this purpose the most learned and experienced men of their states, but, although zeal for religion had persuaded the expulsion of the Jows, the profit obtained from them by taxes had always nclined the bal- ance the other way. Now, however, ng every temporal interest to the glory of religion and to the preser- vation of purity of blood among the nobility of Spain, they resolved to ex- pel them all. As to the process of e pulsion, one cannot imagine w these miserable blinded, creatures had to suffer 1 the course of their exit from Spain.” Those especially who crossed to Afrien were cruelly ill- treated by the Moors,— “an excellent remedy,” continued Forreras, “divisod by God to open the eyes of a vast multitude of theso poor blind ones, who were thus led by suffering to sce the errors of the false religion they professed, so that many of them re- turned to Spain to ask for the holy water of baptism.” Such were the tender mercies of the Spanish church and state in 1492, Ono could wish that among the purgatorial expiations of a Torquemada or a Ferdinand might be included the perusal of half a dozen Spanish papers on the subject of the proposed return of the Jows in 1881. Among the Carlist and Ultra- montane prints they would still find matter quite to their minds, But the mass of Spaniards are on tiptoe to welcome the 60,000 Israclites who last week made their petition for admis- sion to the Spanish ambassacor at Constantinoplo. The conscrvative papers are anxious that the affair be not regarded as a triumph for the Ministerialists over the Canovists; the radical papers see the humorous side of things; one and allare uneasily conscious that other nations have pro- fessed to find the Jews ‘‘difticult;” but above everything there scems to hover the sense that something lost is about to be recovered, some long unsettled balance restored.
