They have many wrongs of which to complain. The government of Mexico wages against them a war which spares milker age nor sex, and the militia (largely recruited from criminals) commits many outrages against them. At the same time, the low class Mexicans are eager to get possession of their fertile lands. These conditions naturally give rise to much bitterness of feeling, and nt intervals outbreaks occur, in which the Indians are not always defeated. Thus It will be, the Yaquis declare, until the very last of them Is dead. Former Homes Abandoned. Until within very recent years, the Yaquis lived mainly in seven large towns of their own, t.nd subsisted by cultivating the fertile neighboring country. But most of these settlements have now been abandoned to the Mexicans, and the former inhabitants are soatered all over southern Sonora. Some of them, who are called free Yaquis, live a wild life in the mountains, or prowl in the almost mesquite and other forbidding undergrowth that covens the country along the river, harassing the soldiers whenever possible. But the majority are empluyed as laborers or artisans, on farms or in the towns, the Yaquis being the most capable and industrious workmen in Mexico. The Yaquis are the best miners; they are the most capable mariners on the Sonoran coast, and they are expert in fishing for pearls. They make hats and fine mats of palm leaves, as well as reed baskets, and they gather the indigo which is produced in abundance along the rivers. As silversmiths they are decidedly clever, and they know In addition to the fact that we have grown older and more dignified, so that we no longer do it ourselves, we find it is just about as much fun to watch somebody else twist the lions tail. habv-lioar- b' Zoi7v tie.

Stephenson took Entwistle out the following Sunday to let him try his hand at the throttle. They ran the engine down to the bog, a distance of fifteen miles, and return. Stephenson was more than pleased. The next day was the day for the competition. Entwistle, speaking of the trip, said: I dont remember much about the before the committee the duke bade him he careful of his answers, lest weather.

During the American Bar associations convention in St. Louis President James Hagerman talked one afternoon about trimmers. The trimmer, he said, would be all right, perhaps, did he not always trim too much. I have never seen a trimmer yet who did not remind me greatly of old John Thompson of Clalrmont. Thompson of Clalrmont, had trimmed so excessively all his life long that he had never accomplished anything. Jle had never dared to do a positive and downr'ght deed. Finally he came to die, and the minister called on him. The minister and Thompson talked together a long time. At the end the minister said: Now, John, do you renounce the aevil and all his works? 0h, sir, said Thompson, weakly, dont ask me that I am going into a strange country and I dont want to make myself enemies, Dangerous Gifts. To possess a sprig of edelweiss is considered by Swiss maidens a proof of the devotion of their lovers. The reason is that the plant is said to and In gengrow only at the snow-line- , erally inaccessible places. Recently several lives have been lost in the Alpine districts. And yet this plant requires no such freezing atmosphere as in which to grow the Alpine snow-lin- e and flourish. It is a hardy plant of the daisy or composite order, and though delicate and fragile, blooms in poor soil, especially liking rocks exsun. In any posed to the full mid-daLondon garden it could flourish, spreading out its downy leaves and stem and its pretty bloom surrounded by white velvety leaves. But so great was the desire to possess it that In several of the Swiss cantons there are strict laws against plucking it, and some of the Alpine clubs have a series of fines for those who transgress. But the difficulty of procuring it only makes some people moie determined to obtain it; hence disastrous results. I78I. Died 18Q. wLat might be called level country.

I dont remember tho time we made on the trip, but it didnt mean much, as the trip wag marred by a fatal accident. We were about half way down when a stop was made. The Duke of Wellington was talking to Mr. Iliiskisson. and they were standing on the second track. Suddenly a construction engine came around the corner and bore down on them. Tho Duke of Wellington Jumped and escaped safely, hut Mr. was struck down and the wheels passed over hi It gs above the knees. He was taken to Liverpool, where he lived about ten hours. Strange as It may seem, this accident did not prejudice the people against the railroad. They understood that It was an accident and did not blame the road. The Rocket pulled on that trip five coaches. They were small affairs and looked much like stage coaches on wheels. Each coach contained three seats, each accommodating; three people, making nine to a coach. People rode on the tops, however, and hung on the sides of the coaches, so that in all seventy-fivpersons rode that day. Thousands of persons were lined up along the railroad track on both sides to witness the strange performance.
