There was that about his selection for this position last fall, just on the eve of the cam paign. and after the honor had been successively declined by two or three men who were nationally prominent.that invested it with the attributes of a "Hobson's choice" nor was the c-ºn ditions bettered by the unusecessful outcome of the campaign. It was nlat ural that the eastern papers who know but little of the west and less of its peo pie. should take the opport unity afforded by Mr. Harrison'sdefeat to charge up to the inexperience of the national chair man. and a great deal of this kind of talk was indulged in. sorne of it humor ous and much of it spiteful and mali cious. but the \ hirligig of time which rights all wrongs and evens up all dif- i ferences. has br ought a thorough vindi cation of Mr. (arter. in the deliberate action of the rational committee recent ly in session at Louisville.

Of these he writes: "They dread no perils more than beating with a rod, and they love an apple more than gold and make more sorrow and woe for the loss ef an apple than for the loss if a heri tage. They desire all that they see and ravy and astk with voice and with hand. They keep no counsel, but they tell all that they hear and see. Suddenly they '?ngh. and suddenly they weep.

Ask otne of these people where they would most ex pect to find a raMe of dwarfs or giants and the reply will be, "In east Tennes se,." And recent developments seem to bear them out, for in the last few years the remains of peoplo less than three feet in height have been discovered in this country. On the eastern slope of one of the peaks of the Great Smoky mountains, where the first rays of the morning sun strike, is an atncient burying ground, and such another burying place could not be found, though the world be searched, for not one grave is more than three feet long. The tombs are two feet beneath the sur face and are formed of cement and flat stones, and have defied the ravages of time to cause them to be destroyed. Most of those examined contained a vase, a few beads and a human skeleton, which was never more than 86 inches long and was that of a full grown person. The natives have a beautiful legend of the place and say none were interred here except Indian children, while natu ralists claim the skulls to have reached their full growth. But the most interesting account is that of the red men who held that coun try when first settled by whites. They claim that when they came to that sec tion of country it was peopled by a race of small, fierce men, with red hair; that these dwarfs waged a long and bloody war with the Indians, but were finally all killed; that this burying ground was used long before they came into the coun try, and that those killed in the war were never blriced.

In the aIlnntt.iinmus district of one of the soutlher states. in ita inld of one of tilhe great rivers, is situated a natural fort. known t, the surrounding inhait- anlts as "Jndian Fort." Surrounded on three sil. . by wrpeundicular cliffs. at the bottom of which fiows thet- river, wide and dneep. the only way of alpproach is by aisnllding a stiff declivity from the open side, near the summit of which are still to be seen tracets of an ancient em bankment, almost obliterated by time. Within the space inclosed by the river and embankment have ls-en found a great many stone and flint implements of Indian warfare and a few bronze axes. There are also a number of tombs, fornmed of large flat stones, containing nothing but dust and dirt at the present. In the time of the early settlers the native Indians had a tradition of a great battle having been fought at this place years previous to their own time, in which an entire race was exterminated. The legend is: The exterminated race, who were called "Worshipers of the tun," had been gradually driven south ward from the far north by the Indians. .t-fore reaching the "Great river" (t!ae Ohio) they separated into two divisions, one going to the southwest, the other go ing directly south. What became of the first part is not told in the legend. After innumerable battles the fleeing race made a final stand at Indian Fort, and after a siege of many months, dur ing which time the besieged subsisted on provisions previously gathered, they were conquered, and every man, woman and child was killed. The legend says these people came from the vicinity of the great lakes, and the few bronze im plements discovered seem to give some truth to that part of the story. It is supposed that these people were the ancestors of the Mexican Aztecs, and that that portion which escaped when the tribe divided wandered toward the south west and entered Mexico from the north. At the time of the conquest of Mexioo by Cortex the Aztecs claimed that they came from the north, and sun worship was the national religion. To investigate these relics of a depart ed race the Smithsonian officials sent Professor Snow and a corps of assistants to the scene.-Tennessee Cor. St. Louis Globe-Democrat.

The people of the drama were an old lumberman in "store clothes" and a young man whose apparel proclaimed the city. And then there was a rough pine box, about six feet long, on a truck outside. Ptrhaps that might have been called '*the properties." There is no more desolate place than the Sault Ste. Marie junction, and it was raining that afternoon. There is a dirty little station and the train dis patcher'a house on one side of the main track. Opposite is a deserted log cabin. There is nothing else to be seen. In summer the commonest flowers shun the spot. The old man with the crape on his hat eat looking out at the box on the truck. The young commercial traveler or advance agent, or whoever he was, stared vacantly at his companion. The time passed slowly and drearily. Once a freight train rattled by. The young man got all the enjoyment he could out of that and ruefully viewed the caboose S fading away into the fog. At length, as if compelled to speak, the old man said: "Say, I hate t' see th' t rain fall on that 'ere colin so. They oughter made th' eaveses t' this yere sta- t tion bigger.

It is impossible to have intercourse with modern Greeks without being touched with some degree of the enthu siasm which inspires them in discussing the future of their country, or without sharing the confidence with which they I approach it. It may be true that the people are of hybrid race, that little of the old Hellenic blood flows in their veins, but few European nations of note, our own perhaps least of all, can boast unmixed descent. There is that in the air this people breathe, in the language they speak, the land they live in, which is of the very spirit of liberty. One meeting a countryman on the road accosts him as "patriote," a term of more significance, of larger meaning than "citizen." But they are a people deeply democratic and require gentle handling to steer liberty clear of the shoals of li. cense. Murmurings against the growth of taxation are already heard, and the extraordinary activity of the press in sures the publicity of every unpopular act of the administration.-Blackwood's Astrology of tame any. Astrology seems to be gaining in pop ularity, and many are turning to it for pointers concerning the fate that is in store for them. Meteorologists are con sulting the planets in relation to changes in the weather, and scientists are seri ously discussing the probability, or even possibility, of the larger planets exert ing an influence on the earth sufficient to affect conditions of life or health. Astronomers do not believe in astrol ogy, but are willing to give the unique science credit for assisting to develop the soience of astronomy.
