Death of a Noted Indian.

Captain Samuel George, late chief of
the Onondaga Indians in New York
State, was buried on Friday in the In
dian cemetery, near the Council House,
on the tribes reservation, near SYRIA
cuse. The old chief was seventy-eight
years of age at the time of his death.
The funeral was held at the Church OF
the Good Shepherd, on the reservation,
in the presence of 9 large number Of
visitors from Syracuse and the late
chiefs people. Bishop Huntington
officiated, assisted by the three Eplsco.
pal clergymen Of Syracuse, and at the
cemetery the Bishop delivered an ad-
dress praising the character and career
of Captain George. In the course of
his remarks ne related that in the war
of 1912 George was employed by the
Government as a runner, and in this
capacity, while carrying dispatches for
the commanding officer of Fort Nigga
ra to Canandaigua, he performed the
almost Incredible feat of running a
distance of 115 miles between the rise
and set of the sun and returning the
same distance on the next. Captain
George was also great hunter, and
his long life was full of history, inciz
dents and usefulness to his people.

Old Stories.

The old school books gave very ex.
aggerated ideas of many things. They
were magnifying glasses for the young.
They described whales as being as long
as the tallest church steeples are high,
mouths as big as a church door, and
these assertions seemed to have the
sanction of the Church. Even Cuv1er
says that there have been whales three
hundred feet long; but he never saw
one half that length. A Mr.. Scoresby,
a whale fisher of California, has been
revising natural history on the suble t
Of whales. He has assisted III captur-
ing 1922 of these monsters, and not one
of them exceeded fifty eight feet III
length. The largest one he ever saw
was sixty-seven feet long. A dead
whale, QUE hundred and five feet long,
was discovered floating IN Davis
Str it's, and skeleton OF one one hun
dred and twelve feet long was found in
Columbia River. Scoresby thinks that
the book makers ought to know and
record these facts.

New Method of Making Sugar.

An invention which threatens to in
terfcre greatly with our commerce is
reported from Paris, and if it proves a
success it will probably have the effect
OF causing an entire revolution among
southern planters This new discovery
is method of making sugar by unit
ing into a compound it's constituent
atoms Of carbon, hydrogen, and oxy
gen. The inventor, M. Jouglet, says
that the cost of production VIII be SOC
per cwt., and he has already SO succeed
ed in establishing the utility of his
invention that company of manufac-
turers have been persuaded to purchase
it from him for the comparatively mod
crate sum of $240,000. What the
sugar planters and refners will do if
the discovery turns out to be as i'm
portant as it promises remains to be
seen; but there is no doubt that if it
is only partially successful strange
developments may be expected. The
invention is said to be very simple and
one easily explained, and endless
quantities of saccharine substance can,
it is claimed, be manufactured by this
new process in so short time and at
SO small cost as to preclude the pos
slbility of competition.

been cured by the use OF Bethesda,

Many cases of dropsy have been cured
by the use of this - Bethesda" but
this, cure is really wonderful, as such
cases of dropsy are incurable in the

LOZADA'S FRIEND.
Isaac G.. Fowler i'm nexico


A correspondent of the Chicago Tri
bune, who claims that he is the only
journalist who ever visited Lozada, the
Indian dictator of the district of Topic,
IN Mexico, says that the life of that
chieftaln was greatly influenced by q
4 friendship which he, formed with the
late Isaac G. Fowler, of New York city.
t. When Mr.. Fowler, then Postmaster
Of New York, was forced to leave the
country In consequence of a deficit in
I his accounts, he took steamer for
Havana. There he sailed for Vera Cruz,
supplied with recommendations from
New York firms to correspondents in
| Mexico, and from that port he pro-
ceeded to the City of Mexico. Here
he was offered the appointment of SUI
per1ntendent of a large cotton factory
IN Ieplc, which he accepted. An
elegant house was taken for his accom-
mediation, and he surrounded his home
with high wall enclosing ten acres Of
ground, upon which were orange trees,
Pcocoanut palms, and other fruit trees,
with an immense profusion of flowers
and shrubs. He was permitted to
exercise his own discretion in regard to
the affairs of the factory, which he
greatly enlarged and improved, adding
several thousand spindles, many looms,
and much machinery of American man
ufacture.
The energy and intelligence dis
played by Mr.. Fowler in the manage
ment Of this factory attracted the
notice of Lozada, and led to an init
macy which was uninterrupted while the
American remained in Mexico. Lozada
exercised absolute power in Topic.
From youth until he was bowed with
old age he successfully defed the gen
eral government of Mexico. On one
occasion Santa Anna with 10000 of
his veterans entered the independent
territory Of this chieftain. Lozada
waited until the invading forces were
in an exposed position, and then with
30, 600 OF his warriors fell upon them
and slaughtered the whole army, ex-
cepting Santa Anna and his body
guard Of 600 men who were in the rear.
The friendship which grew up be-
tween the dictator and Mr.. Fowler en-
abled the latter often to act as a
mediator between Lozada md his sub
jects, and he frequently interceded with
success to protect the people. from acts
OF oppression. When Bazaine and the
French troops left Macmillan in 1867,
the latter was confident Of his ability
to maintain the Empire, for he had had
a message promising that Lozada with
So 900 of his warriors would come to
his aid. IT was then that the American
spirit of Isaac G. Fowler manifested
itself most conspicuously bs4a
He brought his great influence to
bear on Lozada, and convinced him
that if Macmillan should be success
jul he would never be contented until
he had reduced Topic to subsection
that he would consider it incompatible
with his dignity to permit the exist
ence of an independent district within
the limits of Mexico. These arguments
had the intended weight. Lozada re-
considered his determination to aid
Macmillan, and this determination
was the doom of the Empire Had it
not been for the interposit1on of Fow-
Ter this correspondent believes Maxi
milan would have unquestionably
triumphed over the Juarez Government.

Thomas Jefferson's last Years.

There has seldom been known a
sounder physical constitution than
Thomas Jeferson's, or one less abused.
At eighty-two his teeth were all per-
feet !, he enjoyed his, daily ride on
horseback of ten miles, and he was
only afraid that life might continue
after it had ceased to be a blessing.
But the advance of his final and fatal
malady was rapid when once it had
seized upon him. He died at last at
eighty-three years of age, on the 4th
Of July, 1926, fifty years from the first
Independence9rDay, which he had
helped to consecrate. q He had longed
to live till then, and through the night
before had asked from time to time if
it was yet the Fourth. He did not
pass away, however, until 11:40 in the
afternoon. That day another memora-
BILE death scene was taking place
far away. John Adams had reached
the age Of ninety one, and now he, too,
was dying. He fingered TRANQUILITY and
without pain till the setting Of the
sun and those who bent over him
lovingly, to listen to his last words,
caught the whisper, Thomas Jefferson
still lives" But, though he knew it
not, already for some hours Jefferson
had Learned the meaning of eternity s
surprise" In some wide region of the
upper air, I think, those two great
souls must have met that night, and
looking down together Oh the land they
had helped . to make free, repeated
again that last toast which, four DAYS
before his death, John Adams sent fol
