HOSTILE INDIANS IN COL ORADO AND NEW
MExICo-A PETITION FOR HE'LL PROM CITI-
ZENs.-One hundred and fifteen citizens of
southern Colorado and New Mexico have petit
toned General Sherman for protection against
hostile Indians. The following lie the language
OF the petition:
1--WE, the undersigned, citizens of southern
Colorado and New Mexico, feel impelled by a
common calamity to address and petition YOU.
as the efficient chief of the military arn of the
government, for that measure OF protection
against Indian hostilities and savage outrage
which, we are assured, Is due to and will be ac-
corded the unoffending and unprotected inhabi-
tants OF Colfax county, New Mexico, and the
county adjacent thereto. This region of countrv
is one hundred miles a little west of sou,h from
Fort Lyon and the Arkansas river, and about
one hundred miles north of east of Fort Union,
countries in the world, but it contains a very
sparsely settled population OF abou two hum
dred souls all told. There are two hundred
thousand head OF fine sheep and seventy a We
thousand head of cattle now feeding on the rich
pastures Of this region, unattended by shepherd
either murdered or driven off by indians.
The savages from the Indian territory because
OF the defenceless condition OF the population
and their isolation from the military arm of the
government, make frexuent raids into this
region, butcher the inhabitants, kill and drive
Off stock, cattle and horses. Ten or twelve
citizens are known to have been thus butchered
within the last i've days, and many more are
missing. Three hundred head Of horses have
also been driven of in the last few DAYS In
view of these oft-repeated outrages the inhabit-
ants will be compelled to abandon their homes
not afford that protection due citizens of the
whole country; and we therefore pray that your
excellency VIII establish q military post in this
locality Ut the earliest practicable moment"

The Death OF ex.Nnyor Lenox.

EN Mayor walter Benox died this morning at
the residence of his sister, Mrs. Angelica Simp-
NO. 1905 street northwest, in the 9Th year
of his age. Mr.. Lenex was born August 18th,
1917, in this city, and was the youngest son of
the late Peter Lenox, one of the pioneers OF the
city, who resided here for many years, on Mary
land avenue, Gear 18th street. where he owned
considerable property, Including valuable water
rights, and also real estate &C., in other parts
OF the city. MIR. LenoN in early lite was a pupil
OF the late Chief Justice Chase, and many OF
our citizens will recollect the eloquent and
felcitous eulogy Mr.. LenOI paid to the late Chief
Justice ut tie meeting ofthe bar on the occ aston
of the death of Mr. c., as also his magnificent
eulogy on the late Philip X. Fendall, a tirm and
life long friend of deceased. Mr.. Lenox, after
preparation at Mr.. Chsse's academy, entered
Yale College, and graduated with high honors
IN the class of which eX-Attorney General
Evarts, Chief Justice Waite and Judge Pierre
pent were members, In 1891. Returning to this
city, he studied law with the late Richard 5.
his day, and was admitted to the bar of
this District on the 18th of March, 1910.
In early life be married Miss Rachel Ludlow,
of New York, by whom he had one child
both long since deceased. He was elected and
served for several terms as a member of the
Boord OF Aldermen previous TO 1850, when he
was elected Mayor of the city, and served one
term of two years-succeeding the late W. w.
Seaton, who had filed that position for five
years, and preceding Hon. John w. Maury.
Mr. Lenox took great interest in the public
friend OF the schools. Only few months ago,
when quite unwell, at considerable inconve-
yenience to himself, he visited the school of
Mrs Rodier, to whose pupils, over 20 years ago,
he distributed the premiums. On retiring from
the mayorslty he resumed the practice of law
La early life he was in politics an old line whig,
but on the rise Of the know nothing party be
made common cause with the democrats
againstit, and when the late war was inaugu-
rated he, having strong sympathies with the
south, went to Richmond and remained
throughout the war, and we believe was for a
time in active service. At the close of the war
be returned to the city of his birth and resumed
the practice of his profession. For some time
he had been in bad health, and about ten DAYS
since he was taken suddenly ill at the Hamln
house, from whence he was removed few DAYS
since TO his sisters, Mrs. Simpsons, where he
died this morning. His funeral will take place
to morrow afternoon, at O'Clock.
Mr. Lenox was not only possessed of fine
scholarly Attachments but had superior natur al
abilities, and to these gifts and qualifications
were added geniaity of heart and nobility of
mind that gave him in his day following OF
devoted friends and admirers in his circle such
as Henry Clay had nationally.

ARcHB1sHoPR1c OF NEW ORLEANS.

In answer to question that has been asked
by several parties, His Grace calls attention to
the fact that when the visiting of churches is
required as o condition for the gaining of an
indulgence, it is always understood that con-
fessors may substitute these visits by other
good works for such as are incapable of max
ing these visits, or could not do SO without
great difficulty. This privilege is expressly
given to confessors in the rescript granted
by the Sovereign PontiG to His Grace, the
Archbishop. 1t is likewise understood that
the faithful will approach the Holy Sacra-
ments, and pray for the intentions of tho HOLY
Father during the pilgrimage.
BY order of His Grace:

course he decided upon, because he was
determined to keep the boy out Of his
fathers way if possible.
While the conversation was pro-
crossing Chief Harrigan appeared on
the scene, and on being informed Of the
circumstances, he quickly brought mat
ters to head. He asked Mr.. Fields if
he had abducted the boy, and on re-
ceiving negative reply, he asked him
if he was willing to 60 back to face the
boys father. Fields replied that he
was. The chief then asked him if the
boy could possibly be worse off in the
charged Of = doting father and mother
than in a notorious assignation house
here. Fields had nothing to say. The
chief then told him that he had either
to take the boy back with him or to
be locked up in the Gala
boose until the boys father
could be brought down, when he would
quickly take possession of the little
fellow. This was sumner, and after
little demur Fields agreed to 90 and
take the boy with him.
The lad, who is nine years old. is re-
markably bright, and talks very freely.
He declares that he was not abducted,
but that he ran away Of his own &C.
cord, and that he would not go back
to his father if he could hefp it. He
cried bitterly on being informed that
he must 60. This IS all the more
strange in view Of the fact that no
harsh treatment is alleged. and that he
has an elegant home.
