FROM THE PLAINS.
More Indian Depredntions.

ST. LOUIS, April 29.-The Republican has a
letter from Camp Watchita, Medicine Bluff
Creek, Indian Territory, dated April 6, which
says that 100 lodges of Arrapahoes, under
'Roman Nose" and 'Litte Big Mouth arrived
on the 3d instant and are only waiting the ar
rival of the Cheyennes to move in a body TO the
reservations north of the Red Fork of the Ar
kansas river The 9th Infantry win constitute the
permanent garrison of this post. The 10th Cavalry
will camp around the borders of the reservation,
ready to pounce upon any body of Indians who
stand outside the limits prescribed. Indians that
have refused to come in on any terms are COM
mitting depredations on the border, and have
killed three men within the past three weeks.
Those here, while they appear to desire peace
and are profuse in promises of future good con-
duct, still are only waiting for the grass to atten
their horses, and for the Government to give
them their goods, when the western frontier of
Kansas and the northern counties OF Texas
will be again a scene of butcheries.

Execution of the Wife Poisoner
at Pittsburg-Cri

EXECUTED.

Lewis Lane AtOnes for his Crime on the ScaifOld
Five wives Poisoned by hin-IIfs Refusal
TO Confess.
Special Despatch to The Erening Telegraph.
PITTsBURG, April 29-1 P. M.--The negro
Lane was executed a few minutes after IL
o'clock He was convicted on the charge of
having caused the death of his wife by poison.
1t transpired during the trial that Lane was
male Borgia he having poisoned no less than
four wives previous to the last for which he was
tried. During his Imprisonment he has been
apparently Indifferent to his fate, but last night
he was completely unnerved and cried for some
time. His spiritual adviser, Catholic priest,
has been unceasing in his ministrations and to
all appearances finally brought the extraordinary
criminal to realization of his position.
He was up at an early hour this morning, and
appeared cheerful, almost to eXuberancy. He
did not entertain the slightest hope of rePricve,
and seemed to be of an easy conscience.
SO great was the care exercised by the officials
that everything should be in perfect order, that
the execution was delayed longer than expected
The condemned assembled the scaffold with a
firm step, and after the cap had been placed on
his head, was, for the second time, asked If he
had anything to say to those assembled He
answered no, and continued to follow the priests
in recitation of the litany.
A son by one of his former wives refused to
visit him, saying that he poisoned his mother,
and he Justly deserved to die on the gallows.
Lane died easily, scarcely struggle being
perceptible.

The New Work Money Market.
From the Herald.


'0The stock market again excited to-day for the
shares which have been the prominent features dur
ing the past few weeks and for one which is compa-
rafjyely fresh in the speculative fever. AT the first
mornno board 10000 shares OF Michigan Southern
we're sold by q we-known stock house, and the
dealings of the day in this stock We're hardly less
Than thirty thousand shares. The price under the
Grst sales declined rOm 101 to 99A, but reacted later
In the day to 1921, amid considerable excitement.
II is said that the Michigan Southern Company, by
an old resolution were empowered TO convert and
seIl a. OO0,O00 OF their convertible bonds when
the stock should touch par. This value was reached
vesterday and by some 1t Is thought that the first
Gales were made as short speculation, but later
the impression gained a fo0thold that the stock
house referred to merely the agents OF the COM
many in placing the new stock the market. 1nas-
much as the total amount of liabilities of the corp0-
ration is not changed by the conversion OF the bonds
the reaction in price towards the close Is more
clearly understood. Indeed, as the bonds have
hnrne a fixed annual rate of interest, and were
dTst lien upon the road, their conversion leaves
the amount OF two millions subject TO receive
snch rate OF interest as the earnings will allow.
Hence the addition 70 the capital stock s apparent
only, which again accounts for the upward turn ~

GHOST PHOTOGRAPHY.
How the Hon. Colorado Jeweft kneeIed and
Pray ed for u Ghost to Come.


The New York correspondent of a San Fran
cisco paper writes what follows
Years ago man was in the employ of Bge-
low ~ Rennard, great jewelry firm in Boston,
in the capacity of engraver. He was an inge-
NOUS fellow, and bought among other things
Photographic apparatus, and went to taking pic
lures for amusement Mr.. Kennard tells the
story that one day he took picture on plate
that had been previously used and rubbed out,
and when he developed it the original picture
came out more faint and shadowy. As joke he
showed it to spiritualistic friend, and told him
it was the work of spirit. The latter readily
believed it, called some of his friends in, all
wondered at it, and some sat for their pictures
and were perfectly taken, and taken in. So the
business started up, and the artist was doing
well.
One afternoon the Hon. Colorado Jewett
called Mt the artists studio, and said he wanted
the spirits of the great men of the past to come
to his aid, and inspire him to do great things.
He wanted his picture taken with the spirits of
these men in the background and asked the
artist to put him through in that line The
artist told him he could not do it then but if he
would come again he would accommodate him,
or ut all events would make the effort.
In the evening the artist went out and pro-
cured the portraits of Webster, Clay, Calhoun,
Benton, and Napoleon and the next morning
before Jewett arrived he had the plates properly
cessiOn, and one after another the great men
gathered around him. Jewett was delighted,
but he wanted Washington, and begged the
artist to bring the Father of his Country to him.
The artist coAld not do it, as he had no Wash
ington in the house, and finally Jewett knet
upon the floor and prayed to have Washington
come to his aid. But Washington didn't come;
the artist thought it would be carrying the Joke
too far, and so the great American diplomat de-
parted without him.

Proceedings of the Virginia Conservative Com

RICHMOND, April 29.-The convention re-
assembled to-day, and the minority report was
withdrawn to make way for resolution to ad-
journ until ten days after Grants proclamation
for State election. This resolution was de-
feated by majority of two-thirds. The maio-
rity report was then adopted, with few dissent-
ing voices. The debate pointed enthusiastically
to Walker, Conservative Republican, as the per-
son to be supported by the Conservatives for
Governor. Resolutions were adopted for a bet
ter organization, and for appointing a COM
mittee to wait on Grant relative to the submis-
sion of the Constitution, and also on General
Candy, and the convention adjourned sine die.
