THE TSDEAg CAPTIVEs.
Conduct of fsae SquayEs-EBe-
sleanOf Gf ssie EsGH1dSd.

From the New Y TX Herald
In constant dread OF what disposition
was TO be made OF them, several Of the
s1usws visited Gen. Sherman's iaterpfe-
tsr, Mc Curtis, and askedl him whether
they were all te os killed. When as
sured that the white man did not XIII
women and children for what the war
riors did, they felt materially relieved.
Since then tie wounded sqDGws have
appeared El3re lively, and exhibit an IN
usual fselicg Of gratitude for the kind
treatment Iney have been receiving
This feeling they manifest By shaking
hands with the surgeon whenever he
visits then. The most remarkable in
stsnees OF foFtilHGe are exhibited IN the
cases Of the wounded Iadian children.
The desperation OF tae fighting a. the
battle OF toe Washita, on the psft 0f the
savages. may be judgef from the fact
that no male prisoners ware taken over
eight years old, the rest tsking up arms
and ioiDingin the light. There are now
in hospital several very young boys snd
girls badly wounded, but from not q sin
gle one OF them has come the slightest
audible Indication Of their suffering yet
the expression Ct their face, the wild
glance OF their eyes, beiray that they

wounds, placing the thumb on one
temple aud stretching the hsud across
the forehead, fixing the second finger
on the temple opposite, they
close their eyes and patiently subnait to
such operations a. the teachings Of sur
gerry require. Oae little girl about six
years Of age hss . bullet through her
body, on the lefs side, and yet tshe sits up
and maksa no complaints. All the
wounded sQuaws ana children rode ia on
their ponies, refusing to have anything
to do with ambulances. Another siBgu-
lar feature in the wounded IS the pecu-
liarly offensive odor ef the sloughing
wounds.
The well sq1sTs ere stll encanssed
with the cavalry, and seem to be cen
tented with their lot. The male children
amuse themselves throwing Feeds, az il
they we're spears, sc different objects,
thus displayihg the cultivation Of their
expanding merit as future warriors.
The capIives, SICK and well, have not
lost appetite or flesh since il cur hands.
Their capacities f1r slowing away food

There seems TO be some doubt vEsther
tha Gaa b pi Mrs. Augustus Dickens re-

She had 5asn IN the. habit Of using the

she bad borrowed book os neighbOF
which treated OF pOisons, and had read
il carsfuily, so that she must have been
pretty we'll informed upon the character
of the poison ste was using, still there
was 30 reason for committing the deed.
Although poor, she was beyond the reach
Of want, sud had only the day before re-
ceiged remittance OF certificate Of
deposit for One hundred dollars from
even some friendly source. The verdict
OF the c0roneI's jury was rather ambIgu-

her death BY az overdose Of morphine,
administered by herself while in u state
OF mental ALTERATION. ,Pais verdict, II 1t

that Der death resulted from accidental
causes. Mrs. Dickens was buried in

BLOODY INDIANA.
Another FrightTaI IEisioryo Of
Crime a&G Bl0cdsked.

From he Scw Albany Comm eralal, Dec. 29th.l
It seel.>S that Jackson county Il not
alone tbs ssOTt aud hszaquarters of
gangs of robcers snd murdeFers. Ben
ton county is equally notorious FOR the
crimes committed 0f !ste years by .
gang OF cut thEOatR having theiF bead
Qasrters in Pine township near Issines-
vile. A gentleman writing from r Rzines-
wife, December 24th, gives the following
account of the Goings aud tragic de8.h Of
the chief OF this gang of robbers ard
muTGeEers and his family, and some
other items OF interest. He says;
4 feT days before We got cut 20 the
Ridgs, some msn vent to the house of q
man lamed Sl6feT and shot him, killing
him Instantly. He was S very bad man,
hsrbOring horse-thieves AID stealing for
his living.
Several ytars ago some men tracked q
horse-thief b his cabin. They inquired
O. this msn ShafeT If the thief had been
there, snd we're told that be had not, but
one OF his little girls said the thief had
Oee2 there So the pursuit was Contiu-
ued and the thief caught. Sha'er sBd
his wife tn5E took their little daughter
out INTO s 1uek!s5erTy pstca and cut her
throst for tellicg about the thief. Shortly
after this It was found out that SaafeF
was sheltering thieves and murisrsrs,
and be Wss sent 20 the STATE prison for
one year While there his wife took
sick with fever. Du-iBg her deiirium
she would say, Oh, how the little thing
Streams ~ The murder OF her little
daughter was woTsing on her mind.
She never recovered, but passed 70 her
final and terrible account. After her
death her husband csms back, lived
alone, aud carried on the same as bsfore.
So three meu concluded 10 put him out
Of the way. They went t. his cabin Oae
evening Nth a well loaded shotgun.
The old fellow was getting his supp7r.
when one OF them shot hiCi ia the back
with twenty-five swan shot. The next
day g man went u hss cabin AID found
nina cesc. Since this tbree -.Ors Of the
same strips have lefj, for fesr they WouA
be served IA the sane way.

DECORATION DALI our issue of
yesterday we alluded to an order of Gen.
John A. Logan, Chief of
the Grand Army of the Republic, in ref
erence TO the Observance of the annual
cermony of decorating the graves Of such
soldiers as gave their lives sacrifice for
our national unity. We have received
an official copy Of the order, and publish
it below:
WASHINGTON, d. C. April 12, 1889.
GENERAL ORDERS NO. 20.
l. The Both day of May proximo-a
day set apart by the Grand Army of the
Republic to commemorate the glorious
deeds of our departed eomrades-will be
observed throughout the United States in
such a manner az BELTS the solemnities Of
the occasion, and as will testify the indy
ing love Of a grateful people for the MEM
ory OF those who died that the nation
might live.
This is the second public observance OF
the occasion, which is trusted will recur
yearly while there remains a heart loyal
to the cause in which our comrades fell,
and while the moving principle of that
struggle is worth preserving. Ii our or
ganization had no other object, that of
keeping green the resting-places of our
nations defenders, by this annual COM
memoration, would be motive enough 70
hold Us together in a fraternal band.
The Cominander-in-Chief desires 10
thank those patriotic men and women
who gave their aid and sympathy on a
former occasion to make successful this
national memorial day. and they are cor
daily invited 10 unite with the comrades
of the Grand Army in the approaching
ceremonies; and he thanks the loyal press
everywhere, through whose generous aid
a lasting record has been made of the OBJ
servances one year ago. To the Congress
of the United States, the comrades are
specially indebted for authorizing the
publication, in book form, of the proceed
ings of last May, and for the promise
held out that each year compilation will
be made and published, as a national
recognition of sympathy with these me
mortal obseryances.
III. Ii has been determined not to pre-
scribe any form of ceremony for universal
but each Post, or any number
of Posts, may arrange together such fit
ting services as circumstances will permit.
Department Commanders will use every
effort to perfect arrangements for the oc-
casion. The newspaper press are request
ed 10 give publication to this order.
Ill Department and Post Command
ers are specially enjoined TO preserve and
forward to these headquarters a copy of
the proceedings I'm printed form so far as
possible which take place in carrying out
this order.
" As the Both of May occurs on the
Posts are at liberty TO observe
either that day or Saturday, the 29th.
