CHARGED WITH LARCENY.-On
Saturday afternoon boy by the
name of J. p. Miller, about seven
teen years old, was arrested by City
Sergeant Davis, on a charge of stealing
from the house of w. ID. Mcfarland,
in Starke county, Ohio, a coat, vest,
two pair of pants, a pair of shoes, a
gold ring and thirty-three dollars in
money. When arrested the boy had
in his possession the clothing, ring
and three dollars in money. The
bow confessed having taken the
things, but pleaded justification on
the ground that he had worked for
Mcfarland and couldn't get his
wages. He wanted to get back home,
which is in this city, so his only re-
source was to take whatever he could
get his hands on and eight out"
He claims that Mcfarland owed him
$40.
After hearing the evidence in the
case, Squire Gillespie required Miller
to give bond in the sum of $500 fol-
his appearance.

The Indians.

The unfortunate management of the
Indians by the Government has seem,
ed to infame them to deeds of barbar-
ity on n rising scale that is fearful to
contemplate. The shock of their
latest Cutburst of savage passion, the
massacre Of the women, children and
a good share of the garrison at Fort
Sill, is the most intense that has yet
fallen upon the country, and the awful
deed brings out the actual horrors of
Indian warfare as nothing else has
done. At thcsame time that this is tele-
graphed n report comes of an antici-
pated rad by corporations upon 49,
100000 acres of land in the Indian
Territory. Whether this had any
thing TO do in exciting the savages
into carrying out this bloody business
it is not worth while to inquire now.
They have broken faith, been guilty
Of the most fendish murders, and
should be punished with the utmost
severity. After this there should be
no doubt about the execution of the
condemned Modocs. The murder of
Gen. Candy justfies it thousand
times over, and such massacres as this
at Fort Sill make it an immediate
necessity. The Indians are as suscep-
tible to example as white men, and
when they see justice meted out for
crime promptly, fearlessly and i'm
partially, they will consider longer
than they now do before perpetrating
these horrible and appalling acts.
