diamonds IN her tketh.
Aa AotrtM Who Prefer* Tiny HrllllaaU
In i'Uoe of fJolrt.
There is in ono of the Now York
theater* to-day it young* woman who
•miles with such brilliancy and sparkle
that people train thoir opera kIushu?
on her whenever she shown her teeth,
in the hope of finding tho cauHo of
the unusual brilliancy, Hays tho Now
York Sun. Her name i not printed
hore, as thore is no particular reason
for advertising her, but it may bo
said that who is a inosl notable illui-
tration of what is said to bo tho high-
est development of tho dental craze ia
San l rancisco. Sho has throo dia-
monds sot in hor tooth, and they are
unquestionably stones of the first
water. There is ono in a lower tooth,
and two are iu upper tooth, on either
sido of the inouth. Sho said when
the inanagor of tho theater
talked to her a few nights since that
sho knew several other women in San
Francisco who had tiny but brilliant
diamonds set in thoir tooth, and sho
did not see why the plan should not
become a general one. r.« this is the
first tiino that any ono has publicly
displayed diamonds in this fashion in
Now York, it maybe well to state that
English papers have for six months
Insisted that the setting of diamonds
in teeth is a custom widely prevalent
in America amoiig both men and wo-
men. Tho papers have commented bo
much upon it that the news is appar-
ently well grounded that numberless
people have addod to the value of
thoir smiles in this way here,
though New Yorkers would no
doubt be astonished to learn that they
have such a reputation abroad, In a
liond street shop window in London is
another novelty which is advertised as
"the latest American fashion." It is
a Biuall network of silk about two
Inches squaro, upon which the Ameri-
can man or woman of fashion has tho
initials of his or her name formed
with tiny gold links, aiul which is
•owed neatly into a corner of tha
handkerchief. When the handkor-
chiefs are sont to the laundry the
Initial? are ripped off and aro sowed
on again when the handkerchiefs aro
returned. All of this is very much of
a novelty over here, despite the asser-
tion in the London papers that it is an
American fashion.

1 hey Wonliln't Holler* It
Tho late Count Jo Paris onea, whllu
member of tho military start' of
General Modollan, went to visit
(loueral Pleasantou at his headquar-
ters on tho York river. 1'lnaHanton
was waiting for orders, and to erono-
mi/.B somewhat on rations, as well as
to kill time, ho liaii taught his troop9
to dlj; up the oystora alonf; the river
bank ami roast them. When tiie
count reached camp, the first supper
set before him was a mess of York
river oysters. His ride had (jhvn
him a koon appetite, and tho oysters
hot from the pan, were the moat
delicious food ho had oaten for a
month. "Where did you get those?"
ho asked, pausing between inouth-
fulbs "from Now York?" "Oh, no, '
answored tho gonoral: "from the
York river, right Here at your feot.
My men have had several weeks'
practice at oyster fishing." Tho count
was silent for a moment, looking up
from under his eyobrows to sea
whother the general was jesting.
1 hen ho reached for another plateful.
••Woll," he remarked, 4,if I were to
po back to Paris and tell that story,
tboy, would stamp it as an American
lie; dragoons don't catch oysters in
war times."—Argonaut.

BURNINQ THE WHITE DOG.
A Superstitious lucliiui Oromonj Still
Praotlced In No* York.
'I*he stranger to the Onondaga In-
dian terervation would huve been mys-
tified one night recently could he. have
seen the strange spectacle of weird
lights flickering about the hillsides of
tlic red men and heard t.lie odd incanta-
tions of half a dozen big bucks, who
juade the echoes repeat themselves. All
these strange events were accom-
plished by ihe sounds of the tom-tom.
To the person up to date in Indian
customs it was known that tho medi-
cine men of the Six Nations were ob-
servtngthe annual ceremony «fchafing
out the witches and devils. All tho
Jiullabalo) whs with that in prospects
Most of tho ceremonies were performed
with the medicine men in full panoply,
of the tribes they represented, in olden
times this the ceremony to which
po much objection was taken, as it was
said to be accompanied by the wildest
revelries and practices of the most ob-
scene nature. So strenuous has been
thitt opposition that the pagans have
been obliged to abridge their formei
habits and customs.
To this day tho Bears, the Beavers,
the Wolves, the Snipes and the half a
dozen other dans of the Iroquois na-
tion gather at the council house, where
the annual ceremony of burnuig the
white dog is held. It is followed by
a big jollification pow-vvow. The cus-
tom seems not to liuve lost tuny of ita
l'avor, and the council house is scarcely
big enough to hold those who wish to
take part. In former times thedogwaa
burned alive, but now the dog is killed
by ece of the sachcms and highly dec-
orated with daubs of red paint and rib-
bons. lie is put in hiding in a near-by
house, and at the proper time all the
clans gather and proceed to the hoime,
where the sacrificial dog lays. Pipes
and tobacco are strewn about him, and
the Indians dance and sing strange
tongs. The medicine man makes;abrief
speech, and then the procession, headed
by two brawny bucks carrying the dog
<lflf>endin^ from a long pole moves to
the council house, where tiiere arc fur-
ther ceremonies, and the w hite dog i*
thrust into a modern box stowe and in-
cinerated am id tho yelling, dancing,
singing and quaint music of these rude
people. On another stove in another
••ud of the council house are big seeth-
ing kettles of maize, peas, pork and
beuns. After the dancing is over each
member of the party is given a pail
of the strange mixture and this is taken
to their homes, to be eaten at their
leisure. This is their annual feast, or
white dog meat. In former times the
nog was eaten, but that custom fell
into disuse Ion? ago.
It seems that there must be a second
effort to banish the witches and devils,
and ten nights hence the same cere-
mony is gone through with, in even
greater detail. A house-to-house visit
i it' made, and the medicine men crawl
j about the floor under the beds and in
! every conceivable out-of-the-way place
i in their efforts to ch:'«e out witches and
devils. When this is done another big
jollification dance in held, and then the
witches and devils are supposed to bo
banished for the year.—Svracuse Her-
j did.
