They Resemble Japanese ia Jjooks . - and Coatome Their Works ot Art Id Pottery, Straw ' ' ; , tr and liacquer. ".,-"' ',; ' - The bulk ot the Indian population of North America ia ia Mexico, says Frank G. Carpenter ia the New York World. The United States contains only about a quarter of a million Indians. Mexico fiaa four millions, whose blood has the bluest of aboriginal tints, and her mezi tot, or people who hare come from the intermixture of the whites and the In diana, are five millions more. , There are bout eleven millions of people in Mexico and two millions of these are pure white. These and the mezitos govern the country. The Indian who originally owned the land is only the silent partner whose name is not on the business sign and receives none of the proceeds. The Indians ot Mexico ' are unknown to the world. . The term Mexican as it ia gen erally used describes only the ruling class,, and the books that have been written about the country have left out the most interesting part of the popula tion. The Indians of Mexico are not at all like our savages. It is a question whether they come of the same race. and they look more like the offspring of the Egyptians or the Japanese than of the Mongolians, who are in face and form much like the Indians of the United States. Mexico is more like the Orient than the Occident. Its common people live in huts like those you see to-day on the banks of the Nile, and they are of the same type as those used bv their fore fathers in tue days of the Montezuma. Their dress is not unlike that of the people of India and Egypt, and their customs and habits are in many respects the same. I see here every day features that make me think of the Japanese, and the skill shown by these Mexican Indians in pottery aad art work indicates that they are of mixed Japanese origin. Some of the pottery of Guadelajara is beauti fully decorated and artistically shaped, and the most famous of Mexican sculp tors hus Japanese features. This man's name is Penduro and he lives a- Guadela jara, which, by the way is a city of 100,000 peopb, situated in the western part of the country and in the centre of art and culture in Mexico. It is the Athens of the republic and the finest art works of all kinds of Mexican make are turned out there. Pandura is a wonder. He can take a piece of black clay, and in one sitting of several hours he will model for you a bust of yourself which is a perfect like ness, and which will not be more than three or four inches high if you so de sire. I have been in his studio. It is a hut of sun-burned brick, and he squats cross-legged on the floor just like a Japanese. His only tools are his hands and a little knife, much like a caseknife. He has a lump of clay on a board in front of him, and he works away as he talks, turning out nis wonderful photo graphs in clay. He made a remarkable statuette of Emma Juch, the actress, when she was here, and bis types of Mexican life fairly speak and act. He will, I am told, go to the Chicago Exposition ani if he does I predict for him that his fume will be international. I speak of him here, haw ever, as a type of a class of Mexican In dians. He has the features of a Japan ese. As a class the Mexican Indians are perhaps the poorest people on this con tinent. Three hundred years ago they were the richest, and Montezuma gave Cortez plates of gold and silver as big as wagon wheels, and these people made his soldiers spurs of gold for their horses. Since then they have been the slaves of their conquerors. They have been op pressed and beaten and worked for gen erations, and it is only within a few years tunt tbey have had the chance to be anything else. As they are to-day, hun dreds of thousands of them are hopelessly in debt, and are as much debt-slaves as are the debtors of Siani. Millions of them live from hand to mouth, and only the fewest have what the American negro of the South would consider a competency. Peonage or debt-slavery was abolished in Mexico in 1873, but in practice it still prevails. These Indians many of them are hon orable, aad all of them are great lovers of homo and the locality in which they live. The buts which they occupy on the farms of their master-creditors have been the homes of their families for gen erations, and though they are not bound by law to work out their debts they do bo and incur others, so that they keep themselves and their families la bondage for years to come. 'They have no hesi tancy about going again into debt when once free, and Americans who are trying to farm here on our methods tell me it is almost impossible to keep their men un less they are their debtors, ? : i ,' ;i The Mexican, however, spends but little upon himself or his bouse. .The booses of the poor are huts cr hovels, differing according to the locality. On the Mexican plateau, where there is little wood, the Indians live in low, square, one-story- huts of sun-dried brick, often constructed without win dows. "These hovel are like great mud boxes, they have flat roofs, no chimneys or fireplaces, and the door -of each hut itot roaghly made boards and so low thai the men and w,omen of the family have to stoop in entering ft. Most of the butt have but one,, room. , The family sleep on thi floor on mats, and there are neither tables norohairl.'i?M;:!;!v5?S'f i'K The cooking it done over a Are" built out of doors or in a corner of the hut, and the 'cooking utensils are of burnt clay and hot ot iron or copper.': ' It costs but a fe iv dollars to build such a hovel, and the average Indian can build his own house. Near the towns these huts are in collections of a dozen or so, making suburbs or villages of mud, and oa the haciendas they are often inside the wall surrounding the adobe buildings where their masters live, or they are built close to the wall on tho outside. Along the nailroad you often see them made of dis carded railroad ties, the ties being set on end and forming the walls of the but, vrhile a thatch of cactus or other leaves makes the roof. If you will remember the average length of the railroad tie yon will know the height of the Mexican r !V -I but. In the rainy regions of taint along; the line of tho Mexican Na-' tional Railroad you see. roofs made of board and tile. The board roofs are tied on and held down by means of stones placed upon them, and the tile are fastened with mortar. V In feWof these Indian huts are nails used, and rope withes take their place. - The cheapest huts of all are- those ot the hot country or of the low lands along the coast. These are made of cane or poles, which, are driven into the ground and tied to cross poles with strings. The poles are of the same length and to their tops tafters are tied, and on these a thatched root it fastened in the same way. Sometimes the pole walls are plastered with mud, but generally the poles stand about an inch apart, and you can see all that is going on in the hut through its walls. I saw whole villages; of such huts in the State of Vera Cruz, and the Indiana who swarmed in and out of them were often half naked. Here there was plenty of wood and the cook ing was dJae in the open air. Mormons ia Mexico. Very few are aware of the wonderful Droirress made bv the Mormons who have, during the past lew years, settled ' in the northern part of Mexico, princi pally in the States of Sonora and Chihu ahua. Hundreds of industrious Mor mons have taken up their residence in the valley of the Corralitos, above Boca Grande in the latter State, and the re -suits thus far attained bear witness to their untiring energy, ani to the rair vellous fertility of the soil. The Cor ralitos valley, throughout its length, is nearly level, sloping merely enough to effect its perfect drainage. The wnole valley is one vast alluvial deposit, the rich, dark loam being extremely fertile, and with an expenditure of even less en ergy than that which transformed the ' desert above Salt Lake, Ucuh, into a ' garden, the valley of the Corralitos will j quickly become a veritable paradise. j Several colonies of Mormons are dis- ! tributed throughout the valley ; tht of Diaz, established in 18S3, is situated on the second bench, or bottom, at some j distance from the river. The soil is i wonderfully rich, resembling that of the States of Illinois and Iowa. Here are I secu neat and comfortable adobe houses, 1 windmills for raismir water both for ' consumption and irrigation well-filled ; barns and corn-cribs, while thriving ! vineyards and orchards of the choicost : fruit trees are on every hand. In the background are well enclosed, cultivated fields, stretching far out over the land scape, in most grateful contrast to tho tiresome mesquite and chapperel which but a short time since covered the mesa. In place of the barren, treeless plains we now see thousands of acres under cultivation, hundreds of comfortable homes and a few schoolhouses. History is in fact repeating itself, and the Mor mans are repeating at Diaz what they ac complished at Salt Lake transforming the wilderness into a veritable garden. Boston Trantcript. The Subterranean Clover. This particular kind of clover effects smooth and close-cropped hillsides, where the sheep nibble dowa the s,ass and other herbage almost as fast as it springs up again. Now, clover seeds resemble their allies of the pea and bean tribe in being exceedingly rich in starch and other foodstuffs. Hence, they are much sought after by the inquiring sheep, which eat them off whenever found, as exceptionally nutritions and dainty mor sels. Under these circumstances, the j subterranean clover has learned to pro- I duce small heads of bloom, pressed close j to the ground, in which only the outer j flowers are perfect and ferule, while the inner ones are transformed into tiny ! wr.ss.tug corascrows A aooa as tne fertile flowers have begun to set their seed, by the kind aid of the bees, the whole stem bends downward, aulomati cally, of its own accord; the little cork screws then worm their way into the turf beneath; and the pods ripen and mature in the actual soil itself, where no prying ewe can poke an inquisitive nose to grub them up and devour them. Cases like this point in certain ways to the absolute highwater mark of vegetable ingenuity; they go nearest of all in the plantworld to the similitude of conscious animal in telligence. Cornhill Mii'jazine. Porpoises are Yalnable. Many persons who have watched the porpoises f porting in the waters of the gulf have wondered it those great ugly looking creatures that seemed disposed to take such a jolly view of life, and plunge and sport with a mo3t pronounced lack of grace, can bo of any service to man. . It is claimed that these creatures are useful in more ways than one; their hides make a fine quality of leather,their fat a good oil, and their flesh,1 most sa vory food.- ' Not only shoes, but hand satchels, trunks, pocketbooks, etc.. are made from the porpoise , bides, and the New York Recorder states that it is an open secret that certain pie-makers of New York uso the white meat to make their most succulent, delicious mince pies, and further that porpoise steaks are furnished, by several restaurants, to a few favored customers. The average price of a good fat porpoise, so says the Hxorder, is.tak ing hide, blubber, meat aad bead oil, about 200. v .v-S- - :.; . . The sportive, ungraceful porpoise will rise in the estimation ot those who nave questioned its usefulness, now that it has a money value. . - f Bird Mortality Aronad Llghthonsea. . A ' person who spent a month, in a New Brunswick lighthouse says he never witnessed in a hunting trip such mortal ity among birds. Oa dark and stormy nights the light teemed to have a power.; ful fascination for birds,; and when the wind would permit ';,they would, circle about the tower in iwarmt like moths, Some would apparenty try to resist the spell which drew them to the great light, but would alwayt return. Others would Come out of the darkness in a line at straight at an arrow and stiike the glass with tremendous force. : Others, in en deavoring to shun the light, ' would strike the tower and fall of dead. On one morning, after a high wind had pre vailed during the night, 251 dead birds were picked up on the platform and at the baseof tho tower. Chicago Tribune.

Less than a century ago, in the time when men had not penotrated so deeply iato the study of nature,' there was a great deal of poetry and romance con nected with animal life thai had been slowly but surely driven out as the study advanced. Travelers returning from unexplored regions told strange and incredible stories about the wonderful wild animals they had encountered; bnt in vestigation has rent asunder these fanciful tales, and left only cold facts in their places. I am the owner of a natural history written by one Riley and published about the year no'J. It is a quaint old book, and its yellow leaves and odd type furnish the reader with a number ' of straoge accounts. Among others ! may be found something like the following: "The digestive apparatus I of the ostrich is said to be very strong, I indeed, that bird not only being able I to digest such things as stones, bits of I glass and iron, but it is even said that it makes a good meal of a bed of live coals." We laugh at such a statement, bnt no donbt at the time of publication it was stated for a fact. What right have we to laugh ? It is not long tince almost every one be lieved the porcupine capable of shoot ing its quills like arrows, and rep;a deu it an animal well able to defend itself against almost any foe, iostt ad of the quiet, inoffensive little creature that curls itself in a ball at the first ap proach of an enemy, trusting solely to its spine-covered skin for protection. Men who lived ouly n short time be fore us did not question that the pretty, graceful swallows that skimmed so lightly o'er the bine waters in sum mer buried themselves in the mud at the bottom of our rivers and londs when the season was over to await the retuin of spring. It has been but a short time since investigation has shown that the sup posed happy fumilv made no of the prairie dog, the burrowing nwl, and tho rattlesnake is not only not a happy family but does not exist at all. Onr first idea was that these three aninia's, of such different habits, lived in per fect harmbnv, like the so-called happy families of tho modern circus ; but our faith in thii belief is somewhat shaken by the following, vihich may be found in Wood's "Natural History:" Accord ing to popular belief, these three creat ures live very harmoniously together; but observation has shown that the snake and the owl are interlopers, liv ing in the burrow because the poor owner oannot turn them out and find ing an easy subsistence off the voung prairie dogs. " We were patisfied with this for a time, but judge the astonishment cre ated when hlliot (Jones, in one of his latest writings, makes the following statement in speakingof the burrowing owl: "I have found colonies in Ivaas and other States in all rases occupying the deserted burrows of the quadru peds, not living iu common with them, usually supposed." Naturalists are now tellirg us that the opossum does not play possum, but is merely paralyzed with fear for the time being; articles are published every day in our ornithological papers and magazines which go to prove that owls oan see as well by day as by night. It is still an undecided ques tion whether snakes "charm" their prey or not. In the Western back woods these old stoiies are still be lieved in, the ignorant clai-ses cling with fondness to them and will not learn anything different, a id down in Mir hearts do we not all of us cling to lh"m, more or less? Do we not hate to give them up, and is it not with a little regret that we are forced to ac Unowledge that the po-cupine does not , ,hoot bu ills that xh'UtCL of pftra. 1Lje ieAl ha8 feet and leg1 aml tliat our national b.rd, the white-headed ?agle. is far from the noble bird we uce thought him to be?

Tho type-writing machine is supposed to save the eyes, but the effeot is quite the contrary. The eyes are all the time in motion while writing, and the rapid jerking of the eye from one point to another on the little keyboard soon tires the muscles and makes the eyes and sometimes the whole h ad ache. Then n great many girls have the habit of turning np the carriage) to see what has been wiitten, and leaning back in the chair while reading it. This too is bad, for the reason i bat it requires a rapid adjustment of the eye to the different distances, and so tires the whole organ. The only way to save the eyes when rising a type-wiiting machine is to ao quire such facility that it is not neces sary to look at the keyboard, and the eyes wi 1 be saved ihe thourands of little jerks to and fro which do so much harm. afe Didn't Borrow. A successful young business man of Atlanta tells this story : He said that when he was a boy he had oocasion to borrow (20 on a gold watch, and went to a bank to sec ore tha loan. He found there a venerable gentleman whom he has since come to know as the father of Mr. Darwin Jones. ' The old gentleman spoke very kindly to the boy, told him the bank did not lend money on watches and referred him to a pawnbroker. 'Then Mr. Jones said slowly and earnestly: "But if I were yon I would not borrow tha money." Why?" was asked by the impetuous youngster.

The full armor worn by a warrior of the Caroline Islands is one of the most curious bits of savage workmanship in the world. This suit consists of two separate parts the clothing and the cuirass. The olothing, worn next to the skin, U made by weaving, or, rath er, netting, by hand, a web of coarse cords twisted out of the husk of the cocoanut, each cord being tied into a hard knot between each mesh. The knots are crowded close together, and thicken the c'oth so that it would not be easy to stab or out through it. It also protects the legs against being torn by thorny shrubs or scratched in clambering over the sharp coral rocks. But the main curiosity in this armor is the cuirass, or chest and head pro tector, the like of which ia known no where else. Tho wool or substanoe of the eloth is of cocoanut thread the size of wrapping twine, but tightly twisted and tough, while the warp upen which these are woven is much heavier, so that the finished cloth is as thick as our heaviest canvas. The threads are crowded very compactly together also, so that no slight force would be needed to force a blow through. The selvage is bound over a stout cord and) ornamented by alter nate plaits of black hair and yellow fiber. Ornamental designs are worked in with horsehair, too. But the form of this outer war jacket is still more remarkable. It consists AM. ltliADV TO FIOltT. of two parts joined into one garment by the bands covering the shoulders. Through the round hole between the shoulder bands the head emerges, while the broad part is folded around under the arms on each side, and laced firmly to the front flap bv stout cords. This done, there stands erect behind the wearer's head a fan-shaped slields kept stiff bv its well-bound borders and held erect and fixed by cords pass, ing down to the shoulder on each side.

TOO A woman " run-down overworked, weak, nervous and de bilitated that's a womiii that Dr. Pierce's Favorite Prescription is made for. It gives licr health and strength. All woman's weaknesses aud all woman's ailments are cured by it. It's a legitimate medicine not a beverage ; an invigorating, re storative tonic and a soothing and strengthening nervine, free from al cohol and injurious drugs. It im parts tone and vigor to the whole system. For all functional irregularities, periodical pains, organic displace ments and uterine diseases, it's a positive remedy. And a guaranteed one. If it doesn't give satisfaction, in every case, tlie money jj:iid for it is re funded. No other medicine for women is sold on these terms. That's because nothing else is " just as good." Perhaps the dealer will offer something that's "better." Ho iner.r.o that it's bet ter for him. J. C. Pavis, Rector of St. James' Episcopal Church, liufaula, Ala.: " My son has been 1 adly afflicted with a fearful and threatening cough j for several months, and after trying several prescriptions from physicians which failed to relieve him, he has ' been perfectly restored by the use ot I two bottles of Bo- I An Episcopal schee's German Syr up. I can recom- Rector. mend it without hesitation." Chronic I severe, decp-seateJ coughs like this I are as severe tests as a remedy can be subjected to. It is for these long standing cases th.it Boschee's GeT man Syrup is made a specialty. Many others afflicted as this lad was, will do well to make a note ol this. J. F. Arnold, Montevideo, Minn., writes: I always use German Syrup for a Cold on the Lvtugs. I hav never found an equal t ; it far lesf a superior. G. G.
