HANGING DESERTERS.
Tragic Incident of the War Botween the
United Statea and Mexico.
A tragic incident of Scott's campaign
in Mexico was recently told by Gen.
McKinstry, a veteran of that war, to
a writer in the St. Louis Post-Dispatch.
Tho occurrence, as thus graphically re
lated, has been glossed over or omitted
as of no importance by the historians
of that glorious march.
"At the battle of Churubusco," said
the general, "we captured a large num
ber of deserters from our service, who
were duly tried by conrt-martiul and
sentenced to execution by hanging.
"The execution of one batch of these
miserable creatures by Gen. Harney
was somewhat tragical. In a field near
the convent of Churubusco stood trees
with crotched tops, along which poles
were extended, on which hides were
dried by the Mexicans. On these ridge
poles some sixty or seventy deserters
were executed by hanging. Harney,
acting as provost marshal, had charge
of the execution. For this purpose an
adequate number of six-mule govern
ment teams were driven and stationed
under the ridge poles alternately, so
that the heads of one team stood next
to the tails of that adjoining it. The
tailboards of the wagons were turned
up and on each was placed a prisoner,
with a rope around his neck fastened
to the ridge poles. All this was done
and the necessary preparations for exe
cution made within sight of the castle
of Chepultepec, which at that moment
was being assaulted by our forces. The
oprerations of the troops as thoy ascend
ed the broken acclivity toward the
heights, carrying the redoubts, nnd
clamlicring over rocks, chasms and
ravines, under the hottest fire of cannon
and musketry, wore in full view of the
condemned. All were kept standing
on their scaffolds (the tailboards of the
army wagons) during the battle of Che
pultepec (a long time to wait) over two
hours. Kome of the prisoners were de
fiant and impudent, indulging in pro
fane and insolent language. Harney
said to them: 'Don't be impudent, you
rascals. As soon as you see the Mexi
can flag come down from ('hnpultepec
and our flog go up you will fv up, too.'
This was to be the signal of their doom,
and when at length the American flag
was unfurl -li on the castle of Chepul
tepec a glerious and animating sight
to all but these men, a big drum at one
end of tho scaffold boomed out, and
with a yell the drivers whipped up
their mules, and, driving from under
the ridge poles, tho miserable wretches
were left suspended by the neck, with
their legs dangling in the air."
BRAVE AND CUNNING.
Bow the Mink Steals Tieih and Game from
Pportdmen Down Kast.
Probably the most cunning of all ani
mals is tho mink. Its propensity for
stealing is marvelous, and the methods
of stealing nnd hiding the proceeds of
its robberies are unique in the history
of Oie lower species. We do not refer
here to the depredations of tho mink
among poultry, for they resort to hen
neries onlv when the waters are frozen
or a supply of fish is unobtainable,
says the Lcwiston .Journal. Two gen
tlemen were fishing on one of the rivers
of Maine. The fish were quite plenty,
and as soon as one was caught it was
thrown behind on the grass. After
some time one of the gentlemen thought
he would take a rest and at the same
time examine his capture. Hut he could
not find a single fish. He charged his
friend with having played him a triclt,
but the friend was as surprised as he.
They now determined to watch their
next fish, and their astonishment was
unbounded whim they saw a mink run
from a hole near by, snatch up a fish
and carry it off to the hole, where they
afterward found their entire capture
cunningly hidden under some dead
leaves.
In the same manner the mink steals
game which sportsmen shoot. On one
occasion u gentleman shot a wild duck,
but before the dogs could get to it a
mink had stolen it, carried it off to a
hole in the frozen snow, which one
mink had prepared while the other was
watching for the opportunity to steal
the sportsman's game. Notwithstanding
this particular characteristic, the mink
is a brave as well as ferocious little fel
low, and he is excelled in these qualities
only by the ermine. He seems to have
a peculiar aversion for the muskrat,
and, though the muskrat is generally
more than double his size, tho mink at
tacks him fearlessly, and always wins
the battle, after which he drags his
dead enemy to some hiding place, as in
the cases of the fishes and wild duck.
They are found in almost every state
in the union, but mott frequently in
Maine and in the states bordering the
great lakes. Mink skins are sold in
great numbers by Maine trappers, and
are sold for furs under various names.
In the Wild and Woolly West.
It happened in a saloon in a western
town. The usual crowd had congre
gated one evening, whcraV-he propri
etor's most profitable customer, who
boasted of having been drunk in every
state in the union, offered to wager
that he could, blinded, tell the name of
any drink by tasting it. The offer
was taken, and a handkerchief being
tied . over his eyes the trial began.
A half dozen different kinds of
booze-producing liquids were hand
ed him, and in each case he
promptly and correctly gave the name,
f inally a quantity of water was
poured into a glass and handed to him,
but as he tasted this a puzzled look
came over his face. He thought a mo
ment, then tasted again; another mo
ment elapsed, then he remarked: "lSoys,
I guess I'm stuck. I rernenjlxsr of
drinking some of that stuff 'bout ten
years ago down in Lew Jersey, but I'll
be hanged if I can remember what they
called it. I'll give it up; I'm beat. I !
know what it is, but I can't think."

CHINESE WAHrtlORS.
Practicing with Bows and Arrows Bomb
Shells Filled with Mnd.
Kev. W. E. Crocker, who went from
Louisville as a Chinese missionary,
writes of the war in China as follows,
says the Louisville Courier-Journal:
"Just outside the city of Ching Chow
Fu is a garrison of Tartar soldiers. As
I walked on the wall one day I saw
some bows and arrows! Just think,
bows and arrows in this day of repeat
ing rifles and Krupp gunsl
"The government of China Is not
Chinese, but Tartar. Over three hun
dred years ago a Chinaman by the
name of Li drove the last emperor of
the Ming dynasty from his throne in
Pekin. This emperor was sent beyond
the great Chinese wall to the nation of
fierce Tartars, who lived in tents and
engaged in much war. The Tartar
king came down and drove out Mr. Li,
and instead of reinstating the rightful
emperor, took the throne himself. He
ordered the Chinese men to shave the
front part of their heads and plait their
hair into a cue, and the women to un
bind theirs. The men obeyed, the
women did not. The Tartar women do
not bind their feet, and the court
ladies and most of the soldiers' wives
are Tartars. So really China is a sub
ject nation to an outside power. There
is very little connection between the
government and the people. The pres
ent emperor has just recently come of
age and some think that he will be fa
vorable to many reforms in China. He
is studying English, and has inter
course with the representatives from
foreign governments. China has no
conscience, and until the name of Jesus
shall teach them to have a conscience
no kind of reform or advance in science
can help them. They have fine s ilver
mines, fine gold mines, fine old wells,
fine resources as yet untouched, and it
is impossible to utilize them until
China can depend on a Chinaman to do
his duty conscientiously.
"Dr. Crawford was telling how.in the
war with France several years ago, a
shell was shot from a Chinese gun into
a Freneh ship, and they expected an
explosion which would seriously in
jure the vessel. It did not explode.
They got skilled men to extract the
dangerous shell from the timbers of
the ship, and, after much care, the
shell was taken out and carefully
opened, to be found filled with mud!
The wily Chinamen, having no con
science, extracted the powder, sold it
and put in the mud."
VILLAGE LIFE IN MEXICO.
A Humdrum Existence with But Few At
tractions. A glance about the streets reveals a
great monotony of color and outline,
writes T. J. Hughes, in the Chautau
quan. Unbroken lines of one story
houses form narrow, dirty, gutterlike
streets. The yards and gardens which
make, with their semitropical trees
and plants, delightful interior courts,
whose abundant foliage hides the
houses of the village at a distant view,
are now themselves concealed, and
everything looks barren and desolate.
The only relief is the plaza with the
cool and delightful shade of thickly
planted orange, banana and palm trees.
The ancient appearance of houses
and streets is more like what one
would expect to find in Jerusalem than
in a nineteenth century republic.
Oriental features are everywhere com
mon women carrying immense water
jars, passing to and fro; sleepy-eyed,
lazy donkeys loaded with cane until
nothing but their ears are in sight,
prodded along by the sharp-pointed
sticks of merciless masters; dirty,
ragged and often naked children wal
lowing in the dust; and great-wheeled,
ancient-looking ox-carts, with immense
loads, women, burros, children, carts,
straggling along in the middle of the
street. The muddy waters of the Rio
Grande separates us from a people
more different from ourselves than
many across the waters.
Life among the young folks is of but
few attractions to one who has experi
enced its enjoyments in the United
States. All innocent amusements prac
ticed by us are unknown. There are
no parties, no reading circles, no pub
lie gatherings of young people. No
means are employed to bring the sexes
together to enjoy each other's society,
the young man not even being per
mitted to visit his sweetheart at her
jiome.
Where lo Looklng-Glasses GoT
What becomes of the looking glasses?
The annual manufactures in Europe at
the present time is about eighteen
hundred and fifty square yards of looking-glass.
Can it be that to their de
struction much of the ill-luck of the
race is due? Glass mirrors are sup
posed to have been first used in Hidon,
and were very expensive for a long
time after their introduction. A letter
written in 1(173 says that even if mir
rors had been manufactured in France
at that time only the king would have
been rich enough to have one. In
ancient times polished metals were
used, and grand ladies gave their mir
rors in charge of slaves to be kept
bright enough to faithfully reproduce
the charms of their owners.
Her Face ller Fortune.
Queen Victoria's newest maid of
honor, Miss Majendie, owes her en
trance to royal favor to a curious bit of
chance. She happened to be singing
in a church choir one day when the
queen was present at Divine services
and her majesty was so greatly pleased
with the fresh sweetdess of the girl's
face and voice that she invited her to
fill the place coveted by the young girls
of the English aristocracy. The offer
was the last thing Miss Majendie her
self expected.
Tasos In China.
The Chinese are the most lightly
taxed people in the world. They have
no chancellor of the exchequer wor
ried over budget making. All the land 1
there belongs to the state, and a
trifling sum per acre, never altered '
through long centuries, is paid as rent. 1
This is the only ta (n the country, i
and it amounts to about flvo dollars
per head yearly.

ACS5LJTEI.Y PURE
FORTUNES "OF MEDICAL MEN.
Eminent English l'hysiclans Who Have
Died Leaving Millions Behind.
Some great men have died leaving
large fortuues behind, and others have
died poor, says the liritish Medical
Journal. The will of Sir William Gull,
which was sworn under 344,000, is
generally quoted as the largest amount
left by a member of the medical pro
fession. This, however, was exceeded
by Dr. I'lundell, who died in 1877 and
left a fortune of 350,000. Among other
wills of six figures may be mentioned
Sir Erasmus Wilson, 204.000; Sir An
drew Chirk, -.'04,0!H); Sir Oscar Clayton,
1411.000; Sir George llurrows, 104,28;
Sir William liowman, 103,948, and Sir
Charles Locock, 100,000.
Of the fortunes made by memberB of
the medical profession very little has
been left institutions connected with
that body. A notable exception to
this stands out in the munificent be
quest of Sir Erasmus Wilson to the
Uoyal college of surgeons, by which
tha t corporation received 200,000. In
addition to this bequest, Sir Erasmus
left "),000 each to several institutions
and charities connected with the medi
cal profession. The name of John
Iludeliife, too, must not be overlooked
in this connection. The ltadcliilu in
firmary has been erected by the trus
tees of the will. In addition to these,
the Kadcliffe library, now housed in
the university museum, which is one
of the finest scientific libraries in the
world, is entirely supported by the
Httdeliffe trustees. Another exception
to this rule is the will of the late Mr.
llriekwell. of Tottenham, who died
during 18;i3, and who left the residue
of his estate to the Society for the Re
lief of the Widows and Orphans of
Medical Men. The ability to leave
these large legacies comes to but few,
and the main body of practitioners will
agree with Socrates that "a physician
is a ruler of bodies, and not a maker of
money."
HE WAS AN EXPERIMENTER.
And He Filled the Walters with Conster
nation and Worry.
The young man on the opposite side
of the table studied the bill of fare for
some time, while the waiter stood on
one leg with his ear held out for tho
order, and then he said: "I want some
of that hominy and a sido order of
maple sirup, a little of the 'Spinach,
some sweet corn, and a cup of choco
late." The waiter slowly moved his
lips in amazement, says the Chicago
Record, and had the order repeated.
He smiled and started away, and the
young man looked after liim frown
ing: "Confound these waiters," he said,
"I suppose they expect every man to
order something conventional, like
steak and coffee or liver and bacon."
"You did put in a queer order," was
suggested.
"Oh, 1 don't know. It may turn out
to be a good combination. I'm experi
menting all the time."
"Experimenting?"
"Yes; I try new combinations, now
did people ever find out that jeljy and
roast duck go together? How did they
ever get on to spring lamb and mint
sauce, pie and cheese, steak anil mush
rooms, and so on? Why, by trying
new combinations. I order whatever
strikes my fancy, and in that way I get
Borne good combinations."
"What arc some you have discov
ered?" "Scrambled eggs and cranberry
sauce is one. Cold pigs' feet and lemon
ice is another. Did you ever dip slices
of banana into hot bouillon? Of course
not. There are no fixed rules.about
things you must experiment."

WAk m m aw. ansa,
the floorwalker came around and told
us all to look out for these people that
go around and steal because they can't
help it. I was kind of green, then, and
I almost put my eyes out looking for
them. One day a woman came to the
counter and I didn't pay much atten
tion to hex. After I was through with
the party I was waiting on I happened
to look at her and saw her take a gold
headed hairpin from a tray.
"I didn't say a word, but I found out
who she was. That night I went right
over to her house and told her what I
had seen. She tried to brazen it out,
but I was too much for her, and finally
she owned up 'that she had taken the
pin."
"Did you have her arrested?" asked
the other girl.
"No," said the first girl, "but I made
her give me the pin."
Then she turned her queenly head;
pointed to something glittering in her
hair and asked, proudly: "Ain't It a
bute?"
A WAR FOrTTfE.
Struggles of the Indian to Perpetuate
His Existence.
Whatever the Indian has been in the
past, and in spite of his present condi
tion deplorable as it certainly is our
nation has still ' some time left to deal
with these people honorably and just
ly, as it is the duty of a God-fearing
people to do, writes W. Thornton Park
er, M. 1)., in Home and Country. They
will respond in time, but it is not to be
wondered at if they seem incredulous
at first. It is wicked to condemn them
as beasts fit only for extermination; im
prove them, educate them. This can be
done by dealing justly with them. No
words of mine can sulliciently condemn
the cowardly saying "that the only
good Indian is a dead Indian!"
An Austrian officer once said to me
that he considered the liritish soldiers
the bravest on the face of the earth
because "you cannot conquer them or
whip them, you mult kill them." It is so
with, our Indians, they neither give nor
ask for quarters; this is easily under
stood when we consider how they have
always been situated.
It has been with them a war for life,
a struggle for existence, and disputes
have always been settled, man-fashion,
on tho field of battle.
Those who know most about our na
tive Americans (our so-called Indians)
respect them most; those who have
lived longest with them love them
most; the most brutal and cowardly of
our frontiersmen hate them most, and
they have reason to do so. Indian char
acter is contradictory. They are brave,
but cautious and generous; dashing in
attack, stubborn in defense; enduring,
patient, stoical, hardy; fond of feast
ing, but ready for days of marching
and fighting, with scarcely any nour
ishment, alert, unforgiving when
wronged, revengeful, cruel and treach
erous in war; loving as friends, Indul
gent and affectionate as parents; sym
pathetic in adversity, eloquent in coun
sel; by nature deeply and truly re
ligious. Our native red Americans, unlike
those of New Mexico and Central and
South America, are believers in God,
although they call Him the "Great
Spirit." They are absolutely free from
profanity and hypocrisy. In short,
they are the noblest race of aborigines
on the face of the earth.
A l'rolltable Dream
Tunis must be a capital place for
those who Jive and thrive on the credul
ity of their fellowmen. It is said that
a lady there recently announced that
she had a dream, which she considered
as a Divine revelation, that whoever
drank the water of her cistern would
not be liable to take tlie cholera, and
she offered to furnish the water at a
penny a drink. The people thronged
to taste the water, and in two days
more than twenty thousand persons
had paid their pennies, and imagined
that they had obtained immunity from
the dread disease.
