The INDIAN TRoURLEs-FATAL Con-
SEQUENCES OF A BLUSDEI Tho WASH
ington correspondent, Of the New York
Herald says
A gentleman just from the Indian
country attributes the late Indian out
RACES in the ncighborhood effort Hayes
to the removal Of the Indian prisoners
taken on the Washita and kept ut Camp
supply during the winter and removed
during the early spring to Fort Hayes, in
Kansas, 300 miles from the place Of cap
turc, on the old Smoky Hill ronte, the
scene of all tn. Indian difficulties dur
ing the last 70 years. The removal Of
these Indian prisoners induced their
friends to follow with the hope Of res
cuing them, and hence the late massa.
cres Of whites in that vicinity. II will
be remembered it was at this place
where the recent mutiny occurred, and
resulted in the death Of three prisoners
and the wounding of 4 number OF United
States soldiers. This frncas was brought
about by the officer installing an indi.
vidual in camp for Dutch Bill, who was
then aud now in Washington.

The DEVIL IN A CooKINo STovE.-Mr.
Ed. Hicks, of this city, for n year or
two past has owned & very large mon
key, known to Mnconitcs generally,
and the police circle particularly, rs
Jacko. Yesterday Jacko managed to
escape from his cage, and before the
fact was known he was in the lower part
Of the town soaring the women and chill
dren half to death, aud his Whereabouts
was unknown until II policeman was
sent for to arrest the disturbing ele-
meut." Jacko refused to surrender his
liberty of person, and for q time made
q gallant fight; but the policeman
udoubled on him. aud after receiving
sundry kicks and blows, Jacko ran, and
tried TO fad his way back to his cage
on Fourth street. He darted into the
kitchen of McIutyre's restaurant, and
seeing a cooking stove side-do0r open,
popped in before his pursuers reached
the door of the kitchen or saw what had
become Of him. Thinking perhaps that
he had passed through the building, his
pursuers went on to his cage, but 10 |!
Jacko was not at home, nor could he
be found, and the search was abandoned.
In an hour after a customer entered the
restaurant and ordered ham and eggs,
and the cook, who was not in the kitch-
en- at the time Jacko entered, went to
prepare the meal. Seeing the stove
| door open he shut it with his foot, en-
PEASANT, and. gathering y handful of
light wood, kindled u fire, and began To
stir his eggs in u plate, preparatory to
.crambling them. While standing there
stirring the eggs, Jacko's quarters be-
came toe warm for him, aad, forcing the
door, he bounded out and darted under
the table. This was more than the cook
could stand, a, he had no, heard of the
monkeys escape, and, dropping his
plate, eggs, and spoon, he rushed
through the front room and frantieally
informed his employer that the berry
debbel was in de kitchen, kase he saw
him jump out Oh de stove mad away
he went, and has not been heard OF
since. The uprOar soon renewed the
pursuit after JACKIE, ana he WAS recap
tured and returned to cooler and more
comfortable quarters than II stove with
q fire in it, but not until after he had
scared a score Of women aud children to
within an inch of their lives and II negro
out of his senses.-Nacon (Gd.) Tele-
1rdph.

HAIL COLUMBIA"

In examining the programme of the
great Peace Jubilee, now being given in
Boston, we find that to-day, being the
Anniversary of the Battle of Bunker
Hill, the ever-glorious national song of
HAIL CoLrNpIA was especially desisnat-
ed to be rendered on this occasion as it
never was heard before. We make the
following extract from the programme
as published in the Philadelphia In
quirer:
The SYMPHONY, by the full band of 1000
performers.
The first rerse, by the full band and the
grand chorus Of 10000 voices.
The second rerse, by the u llband, the grand
chorus, and the Ginning OF church bells.
Aud then the third rerse by the full band,
the grand chorus. the Ginning Of bells, the
platoon firing Of infantry, and the roDr Of ar.
tillery, all obedicnt to the one controlling
baton. Then will follow the national airs OF
Great Britain, France, Russia and Prussia.

WoRxrSGNEN's UNIONS are believed to
DO instrumental in raising the status Of
the ~workingman, making his vocation
sure, and stimulating industry by in
creasing inducements thereto. This is
q noble mission, and should in no event
fail Of fulfllment. The legitimate
object of unions cannot be perfected
with impunity. The cause of the
workingman is a growing one, and the
unions are important auIiliaries to its
growth if they manifest a right appre-
citation Of the surroundings. Bigotry
must not be allowed to enter them.
The moment they become narrow, con.
tracted emu Of power or expressions
of feeling, they become engines oil
harm, and tend to postpone n cause
they should gladly assist.
