ment of the recent Indian 0utrages In Arizona, ana
the great losses suffered by the citizens. He made
fresh appeal for more troops, and the matter has
been referred TO General Thomas, commanding the

New Method of Settling the Indian Question
An Indian Congress.
An Indian congress is among the things talked OF
by representatives Of the civilized Indians OF the
Indian Territory now stopping in this city. 1t is
not generally known that these Indians, by atten-
ton to agricultural and industrial pursuits, have
made rapid advances in civilization. They have
become quite wealthy, and have fourishing towns
and villages highly cultivated fields, schoolhouses
and college. In fact they enjoy every blessing
almost that civilized community can boast Of in
cluding a regularly organized government. The
civilized tribes living under this rule believe
that by having a congress, In which they
can all be represented, much good can be
accomplished. 1t Is said that Colonel Parker,
Commissioner OF Indian Affairs, is considering
the plan Of inviting representatives from some OF
the savage tribes TO go with him to his Congress for
the purpose OF pointing out 10 them the blessings OF
cutlvating the arts of peace and thus encouraging
them to go and do likewise. The idea seems good
one and worthy OF Parker's practical sagacty.

sion IN this city, many Of them accompanied by

the organization, who said these present were from
all parts Of the Union and the British provinces,
and they came to pay their profound respect to the
Chief Magistrate Of the nation. In granting this
interview they looked upon the President as recog
nizing their motives in the interests OF humanity
The visitors then approached in line, were intro
duced and shook hands, and as this ceremony was
completed they retired
Patience and Perseverance Rewarded.
The few Senators and Members who remained
here after the adjournment OF Congress to look after
their appointments have made their preparations to
go home. With few exceptions they have secured
nearly all they wanted, which was more than those

should be made In Nebraska without his consent
except in the case OF the Quaker Indian agents.
Since Congress adjourned Thayer has got all his
State officers appointed besides getting one Of his
constituents appointed Consul to Dresden. Other
Senators, who pursued similar course, have been
equally successful, except in cases where there was
a difference OF opinion between the two Senators

Cockney MISUNDERSTANDING scene mt the
! White House.
An amusing incident occurred during the visit to
the President of the National Division OF the Sons
OF Temperance. After the Most Worthy Patriarch
Of the Division had inflicted his speech upon the
President little cockney Englishman, by the name
OF DR.. Lee, stepped forward and insisted upon
speaking for all England, after the manner Of the
three taiors Of Tooley street. The President, after
gancng at him, stood his ground bravey. The
Engishman, losing sight Of the temperance ques-
ton, launched out upon the subject uppermost just
now in the mind OF every Britisher-to wit, the i'm
portance Of maintaining peace between the two
countries. The cockney expressed great confidence

time, everybody In the room endeavoring to keep

floor, never moved muscle OF his face and seemed
much pleased when the little Britisher concluded.
