sequeIty took up their quarters in the lndsn tent
near the village, the gil sleeping upon the ground
with ter dusky compsuions. The father, having
missed his daughter sought for her in the towns near
Boston, bat, not finding her, made use of the tele-
grspb, ard thus sscertained her whereabouts. He
reached Ware early on Sunday morning, and pro-
ceeded directly TO the Indian tent where be met his
daughter. John stated that the girl proposed and
/ planned the whole thing that she was Is pure and
virtuous as when che left her fsthers roof and though
they had slept in the tent for three nights, they
had slept apart from each other. This statement
confirmed by Johns brother and his wife, who had
very penent while the girl stated that she took this
means to plague her step mother, who had iltrested
her, She hid her clothes in school-hou,e the night
before starting and the next day went from home to
stebd school at South Boston, met her Indian lover

-Abd-er-rabmsn, Emperor of Morocco, who was
born in l7s, aud succeeded to the throne in 1929 died
recently according to the advices from Tangier Of
Septeu Der G. 1859. His reign was marked by violent
disturbances at home and by serious conflicts with for
egn powers, especially with France. The support
which he gave at first to his powerful vassa, Abd-el-
Keder, led to the bombardment Of Tangier, August g.
1914, Mogador August g and 70 the utter defeat of
bis army 10y Gen. Buseaud, in the famous battle of
Isy, August II. England medis.ed treaty of
peace was made September 10. Abd-tl Ksder wasre-
moved to the interior Of the Empire But the Arab
chiefisn now became as dangerous to the repose of
Morocco as he was to that of Algeria. Many Of the
indigenous Tribes rallied round his banner snd ADD
er rahmsn could only resist his aggressions by the
assistsIc ce of his former enemy-France. Permanent
relief, however, came after the capture Of Abd-el-
Kader in lSf. In ls49 and 1851 new complications
arose with the Fierch who bombsrded Saleh, March
90, 1851. Peace restored March %, 1852, but in
1867 the Frerch feet again appeared before Tsnger
account Of the assassination Of French merchant
by subject Of the Emperor. In 1856 Prince Adal
bert Of Prussia was attacked With his squadron by the
Riff pirates, and attacked the forces Of the Emperor
but was wounded and defeated. Add er.rshman could
only be made to yield 20 the demands Of European
Powers and the behests Of civilization, by force Of
arms He did little TO advance the progress of his
Empire, but took every opportunity to enrich himself
