SINGULAR ESCAPE.
A White Man Escapes from Party Of
Indians.

A correspondent of the st, Louis
Democrat, writing from Phil. Sheri-
dan, Kansas, on the Goth inst, tells
the following story:
About the first of March, four young
men arrived here from the East, named
respectively, S. G. Doran, of Steuben-
vile, Ohio; r. t. Smith, of Cincin-
natl; j. w. Shryock, of Johnstown,
and f. w. Head, 0f Williamsport,
Pennsylvania. After stopping here
some six weeks, they fitted themselves
out with horses and the necessary
equipments for a trip through to New
and Old Mexico.
They left there about the 10Th of
April, with the above object in view.
On the 1st of May, while in the vicin-
ity Of Antelope Hibs, they were at
tackled by small body of Cheyennes,
about twenty in number. The party
stood their ground, fighting bravely.
After several shots were fired, Smith
received an arrow in the left breast,
and was the first to fall. Head fell
next, pierced with seven arrows. Do
ran received wound in the, right
shoulder. Shryock received a wound

side, but kept up his firing until he
received one in the breast, when he
dropped his gun and fell from his
horse. Doran, seeing how useless it
would be to contend against such supe-
rior numbers, surrendered himself.
The Indians gathered around their
victims, shouting and dancing with
savage delight. They took their scalps,
and taunted Doran by slapping him
in the face with them. The Indians
did not escape unhurt. Seven of their
number bit the dust, and three were
wounded. They threatened theirpris-
oner's life, and taunted him by bran
dishing their knives and tofnahawks
in close proximity to his head. He
being of a cool and undaunted nature,
gave but little heed to their threats.
After disposing of their dead, they
took up their line of march, and trav-
eled west about ten miles, where they
encamped for the night. They pre-
pared their suppers, and ate without
providing for their prisoner.
Doran knowing that he would re-

eefve harsh treatment as long he -
mained in their hands, set about con-
juring plan of escape. Having on
his person a pocket case of medicines.
among which was a couple of vials of
tincture of opium, he conceived the
idea of drugging some brandy, of
which he had aquart in bis possession.
Watching his opportunity he sue
eeeded in accomplishing his object,
ana turning to his captors he raised
the oottle to his mouth, pretending to
drink one OF them seeing it, rushed
Forward and snatched it from his
hands and raising it to his lips drank.
After taking draught he passed it to
the next and it passed around the
entire circle.
AS he expected, it worked like a
charm. In a short time they all be-
gan to feel drowsy. Placing two over
the prisoner for a guard, the rest
wrapped themselves in their blankets
and gave themselves up to sleep. The
drug was too powerful for the guards,
and in few minutes, like their COM
rades, they too were in a sound sleep.
Doran, seeing the opportunity,
armed and helped himself to what
there was to eat, and mounting his
horse, rode away in a westerly
direction. About daylight hereached
Medicine Bluffs, a point where the
is establishing a new
military post. Leaving there, he
reached here in safety on the
of this month, and took
the train for the East.
1t was from him / learned the above
facts. He is unacquainted with the
address of any of the parties friends |
except one. Thinking it might be in
teresting to some of your readers, and |
be the means of informing the parents |
of the sad fate of their sons, I have |
recorded the above facts.
The young men were all of good !
mora! character, and during their |
stay here formed some pleasant ae-
quaintances, who held them in high |
esteem, and deeply sympathise with |
their friends.

THE DUNKARDs.
Their Seven Years Convention Every
State to be Represented.


BOTEToURT COUNTY, VA, May D, 1869.
The meeting of Dunkards now in
progress in this county, is, as L am
informed, a seven years convention,
in which all parts of the United States
are represented. The preparations
for it on the part of the native men,
bers Of the society in Botetourt and
Roanoke were upon a scale that would
surprise any who are not familiar with
the proceedings of these people on
such occasions.
The number of DunkarCls expected
as delegates and visitors from other
parts of the country was by some set
down at ten thousand and by others
at fifteen thousand. 1t is certain that
the road leading up the Valley has
passed large number, some of whom
were from Maryland and Pennsylva-
MIA, and that the railroads have de
livered a great multitude. Besides
the accommodations provided for the
members of their peculiar sect, the
hospitality of the Dunkardls takes into
account the wants of their fellOw-citi-
Zens of other denominations who may
visit them during the progress of their
lnCCAglSs - lAlC
that frtsNd OF his was pressed to go
home with one who had already about
fifteen vehicles, with their loads, mOv-
ing to his house.
The camp-ground of the meeting
displays vast array of tents, and the
immense tables are provided with q
number of deacons, who have been
chosen to serve them. The store of
provisions collected beforehand may
be Judged from one or two items. In
the article of beef cattle fattened the
number was seventy to eighty, and a
visitor who saw them before the
slaughter had begun, declared that he
never saw a fatter and finer herd. As
to coffee, the quantity prepared issaid
to have been so large that great out
door ovens were made to roast it in
over huge log fires, and a grain mill
was hired for the purpose of grinding.
OF the arrangements for washing
the feet of the disciples | cannot speak
particularly. When it is considered
that each one of the great congrega-
ton has to receive this evidence of
brotherly love the imagination of the
reader win have ample scope to pic
ture the nature and variety of the alb
lutions, and the quantity of water,
basins and towels required in the
premises.
1t is equally impossible to describe
the great multitude and variety of the
kisses of charity which take place on
the occasion, for with the meeting
kisses, the parting kisses and the
kisses that transpire during the vari-
Gus religious services, it is hardly eX
travagant to say that the woods and
fields are vocal with the notes of Os-
culation-some so faint as hardly to
be perceived, some a little more ex-
pressive, and some demonstrative and
prolonged. This ceremony is strictly
confined to the sexes to which the par
ticfpants belong, men kissing men and
women kissing women.
Having found it impossible to visit
the great meeting, cannot give you
any more particulars, but these you
may rely upon as in the main correct.

Senator Sherman on gomen's Riubts

Senator John Sherman, of Ohio, in
a letter to a wOman's rights advocate,
talks seriously as follows:
j have always favored the most lib
eral laws for Women's Rights so
far as property, business, employ
ments, liberty and social position are
concerned. In these respects they
ought to stand on the same footing as
men; but / have seen no reason to
convince me that they would be bet
ter of, or that society would be i'm
proved by their having the right to
vote. AT all events, until a majority
of the women F" concur in demand
ing it, the "men" may properly
stand aloof on this question. Your
missionary work is among your own
sex; and ] am willing to encourage
and support the political discussion of
this question, with full faith that if
the women of the United States de-
mand the suffrage as necessary for
their protection, they will get il.
They now make the fashions and GUS
toms which ostracise so many of their
own sex from healthy and useful en-
ployments; they promote eXtrava-
gance in dress, and make marriage a
dangerous experiment for young men
without means. All these and MANY
other abuses you are trying to correct,
and l sympathize with you, and if
suffrage would aid you I'm this would
grant it. My fear is that the right TO
vote viii tend to disturb the harmony
Of society, make discord in the family
circle, and thus cause. much greater
evil than good.

! the commission, and even of many o
! those who would like to see them
pass. Hence the minority have circu.
lated the statement that the bearing
of these dognas in relation to certain
governments, will make it inexpedi-
ent, and perhaps impossible, for the
/ bishops connected with those govern
ments to attend the Council. They
add that the present disposition OF the
French government toward the Papal
Court is not such as to guarantee tran
guilty in the States of the Holy See
during the sitting of the Council.
What if, while the Council was in ses-
sion, a pale messenger should rush in
and pronounce theterrible word-Gar-
ibaldiI
1t is, at least, curious fact that
these surmises and apprehensions have
been expressed in journals which are
the organs of the Jesuits. 1t is quite
in harmony with their usual subtle
policy that in Rome they should pro-
fess that the Council will certainly be
held because the Pope is so passion
ately bent upon it, while in foreign
papers they suggest these external diff
ficulties in order to hide the greater
difficulties which are found within the
congregations themselves. These diff
ficulties arise from the fact that the
party which holds to the Gallican lib
critics is represented in the cOngrega-
tiOns; and still more to the gross de-
parture from the custom which canon
ical law and ecclesiastical precedent
enforce, of the representation and re
cognition of the power of Catholic
princes in general council. 1t is GER
tainly an embarrassing position. The
obstinate resolution of the Pope that
the Council shall be held increases the
embarrassment. In the language of
the OpiHiO7e of Florence His tenn
perament, which will not tolerate con-
tradiction, win react so strongly on
his health lin case of Disappointment
that many fear that if the Council
should not soon be held, it will not be
long before a cOnclave win be called"

sence the British converted the two
Presbyterian churches to military
uses, employing them as hospitals and
stables, and inficting great injury
upon them. On the 26th of Novem-
Der, 1888, the day after the evacuation
of the city by the British troops, DIR.
Rodgers returned to the city, at once
fe-entered upon his labors, and by the
greatest industry succeeded in obtain
ing the means to repair both churches.
His last official act was to lay his
hands on the head of his successor,
Gardiner Springs his ordination,
August 8, 1910. DIR. Gillett happily
depicts his character in these words:
/" Liberal in sentiment, prompt to re-
spOnd to the, calls of humanity and
benevolence, eminently disinterested,
animated and fervent in his pulpit
ministrations, indefatigable as pas
tor, and judicious in all his measures,
his standing was such that in all his
relations, whether to his own congre-
CATION, to the State, or to the Church
at large, he exerted a powerful and
beneficent influence"
