Talkin with the feople of Mara la 8wb
Ject t Maar DitUcaltU.
There ar many things to be taken
for granted before we can believe that
It Is possible to communicate with
Mars.
1. That the planet Mars Is Inhabit!
2. Tiiat It Is luhabtted by Iwlngs hav
ing a written or spoken language, or
both.
3. That these twple are as well up
In astronomy as we are.
4. In order to base any hopes on the
experiment with the kite man. we
must believe that the people or Mars
(or some other planet, the particular
one not being material to the main
question) have not ouly discovered
wireless telegraphy, but have carried
It much nearer to perfection ttaau any
body on this planet has done.
All these things are pretty hard to
determine. We may Imaglue. assev
erate, debate about them at win,
weigh possibilities and probabilities,
but at last we may come back to the
bold and uncomfortable fact that we
know nothing about them. Whatever
we say about them Is pure guesswork.
But If all of them were positively
known with scientific accuracy, the
difficulties in the way of communicat
ing with Mara or any other plauet
would still be enormous. We have and
can have not the slightest knowledge
of what sort of language the people of
Mars speak ft Is safe to say that they
are not In possession of the Morse al
phabet or anythtng like It If they sent
us signals they would be wholly unin
telligible. If they could write or print
words in their language upon any sub
stance attached to an instrument we
could not read them. Mars has an aver
age distance from the earth from the
earth of nearly 50.000,000 miles, but It
sometimes gets within 35,000,000. Wire
less telegraphy will have to make great
advances before it can cover a distance
like that If we are ever able to signal
the planet Mars In any way and get a
return signal It -will be a very Interest
ing event In the annals of the world,

APACHE TRIED SALT TEST.
Old Chief Victoria 8 lected Warrior
by an Up-to-Oate Vet hoi.
In the early days of Union Pacific
railroading, Victoria. Nana, and the
present Geronlmo, the three chiefs of
the Arizona Apaches, with 100 of their
best bucks, came through to Green
River, Wyoming.
They had heard of the "heap wagon
and no hoss" and had come to stop the
train. They made a lasso of rawhide,
and fifty men on each side held on to
the rope as the freight came down the
Wasatch divide. The engineer saw
when several miles away what the
Indians were up to, so be whistled "off
brakes," and, opening his throttle, let
her loose. The cowcatcher struck the
rope and hurled the Indians In all di
rections, literally tearing them to
pieces, headless, armless, and legless.
Three chiefs went south to their cactus
plains, very crestfallen.
Before the selected these men the old
Chief Victoria had them all eat a piece
of rock salt about as big as a pecan,
run swiftly about 100 yards, sit down
on a log or rock, and cross their legs
Then he watched the vibration of the
feet which were crossed. The feet
which vibrated the longest or bad the
longest strokes be declined to accept
for a severe duty or a dangerous trip,
or for one that was at all hazardous.
But he accepted the feet which vib
rated short, distinct and regular
strokes.
Now, what did that old chief know
about pulsation of the arterial system
or of heart action, and. Indeed, about
salt In the system? I have lived near
to Indian reservations and have had
occasion often to survey over their
lands for rallraods and other objects,
and since this salt controversy I have
wondered where old Victoria got his
Ideas. Is not the child of the sage
brush plains better posted than his
pale face brother?

When the curtain went down at the
close, of the first act he turned In his
seat and said with a smile to the young
woman directly behind him:
"I beg your pardon, miss, but may I
ask a slight favor of you?"
"What Is itr she said.
"Please use this stick of gum In place

Mr. Mathis is aa follows:
"In the spring of 1894 I had a very
serious case ot iudlgeation. My stom
ach commenced to give ma great trouble,
aud, while I knew tha natuia of the
pain, I did not at first use tha proper
precaution. For some tiiua I did not
pay anr attention, but it gradually
grew worse, when I consulted a phy
sician, who proscribed for rat, I used
bis mediciua according to instructions.
I began to exparieuca nervous spells,
became subject to congestion of tha
storoaoh, and considered myself in a
precarious condition. Tha physician's
medicine aud other remedies I tried
failed to benefit ma.
"One day a friend urged ma to try
Dr. William' Pink Pills lor Pals Peo
ple. I considered it a useless si perl
men t, hot as I bad tried everything
else, I agreed to take them. That was
three aud a halt years ago. When I
had used three boxes I could note very
plainly tha change for tha better.
When I had used the seventh box I
was cured.
"The pills have not only cured tha
j indigestion, bnt tuey have also cured
my nervousness, my blood is in perfect
condition, and they have brought my
weight from 140 pounds at the com
mencement ot tha stomaoh trouble to
