"It Is true we have the negro and plenty of him, but he Is growing less and less efficient, and by reason of shiftlessness and laziness Is becoming largely an Industrial parasite.

A notorious bandit serving a life sentence has been cured o( his violent disposition by a surgical oper ation. He was afflicted with a tumor on the brain and the Burgeons re moved it. They seem to have removed the devil of the man's character nisi The operation was performed some years ago. He often attacked the guards and was considered the worst prisoner the penitentiary had. Finally ne declared to the authorities that he was lnsan when he made the attacks that h was overcome by a mania and was not in his right mind. An examination led to his being ENDLESS PRAYER CHAIN'. PI SH CART AROUND THE WOULD. The Denver Post prints the follow ing prayer which it, has received from some "endless chain (lend. The add ed advices accompany the strange messenger of the malls: Oh. Lord. Jesus Christ, we Implore Thee, oh, Eternal God, to have mercy on all mankind. Keep us from sin and take us to be with thee eternally. Amen. 'This prayer was sent by Bishop Lawrence, asking the person, to whom it was sent, to rewrite It and send It to nine other persons. He who will not say it will be afflicted by some misfortune. s 'One person, who paid no attention to It. met with a dreadful accident. 'He who will rewrite the prayer for nine days and send it to nine other persons, commencing on the day it is received, and sending only one each day, will, on or after the ninth day, experience a great Joy. "At Jerusalem, during the 'Holy Feast," Is was said: 'He who will re write this prayer will from all calamity.' "Please do not break the chain. "To the Editor of the Post: It Is needless to say that the above wns received by me, and. as I am comply ing with the request, I count you one of the nine persons to whom I send it." (No signature.) The editor, not wishing to meet some terrible calamity, herewith puts the letter before the eye of at least 10.000 times nine persons.

AZTEC Kill, MS IN WASHINGTON It has Just been discovered that the present townslte of the village of Ho. ver. Wash., was once an Indian bury Ing ground. While the excavations were being made for the First Presby terian church, the workmen unearthed several Indian relics, among them be lug tomahawks, beads, peace ' pipes md peculiarly shaped copper dishes which resemble ordinary bone dishes. The strangest articles brought to light however, were a dozen or more larg' copper spheres about the size of baseball and which were hung to gether by copper chains. Dunklin form each Is a spangle about two In cbes In diameter, nnd each contain hieroglyphics unknown to any of th lersons who have seen the chain which has been purchased by Theo dore J. Kersten of Moran prairie, Spo kane, and taken to bis home. Mr. Kersten, who has spent consld erable time in archaeological research In Minnesota and other middle west rn fields, savs the chain Is undoubt edly the work of the Aztecs. It supposed that the chain wns carrle bv the Aztecs up along the Pacific coast and captured by the Indians du lug one of their raids and kept as trophy of war.

Women's suffrage must be coming when we see it favored from two such opposite quarters as the Russian rev olutlcnlsts and the Catholic church. Bishop McQuald, of Rochester, one of the most honored of the Catholic bish ops, says: "No'hlng counts In the United States but votes. The time will come when women will vote, and then we will see the greatest voting the world ever saw. We are not nfrald of wo man suffrage. Our women will save the day for us." Womnn's Tribune.
