effect that on the 18th of November John
Richards and his nephew, young Palady,
were found in the Running Water, 80

The bodies had lain in the water several
days, and could be identified only BY
papers found on them Both the muir
dered men were Sioux half breeds,
Richards having been very intelligent
man and great friend of the whites. He
had been in Washington several times
with Indian delegations, as interpreter.
Assisted by Young -afraid-of-h his
horses, he was the means of bringing to
Red Cloud last September, to treat for

the two with 10O'head of horses. Great
excitement prevails at Red Cloud in
consequence of the discovery OF this
brutal murder.

"sDon't cry, grille I'm SO sorry,

for three happy children who entered

"Oh, Mabel, I am so glad you are

SPANS Reply to Minister CuShing'S
NOteo

Washington telegram to the New York
Herald: "The reply of the Spanish
Government to the note of Minister
Cushing was promptly transmitted by
catle to the State Department, and de-
cipaered there this morning. 1t proves
to be digniied response to the demands
which our Government made In the mat
ter Of American interests in the island Of
Cuba. and will, it is believed, dissipate
all fears of trouble between Spain and
the United States. The tone of the re-
ply is firm, but very conciEatory. The
Justice of our demand is not ignored.
The confusion of affairs In Cuba Obstruct
an impartial exercise and prompt adj
ministration of the requirements OF the
treaty of 1895. Spain defends her right
to maintain courts-martial In Cuba, and
cites, in support of her position on this
| question, the fact that the United States,
during, and for long time subsequent
| to, the late war of secession, and France,
| for the two years succeeding the tr1-
umph Of the republic over the COM
mune, and even then, under the mild
reign of Theirs, made use Of similar
military or extraordinary tribunals to
deal out Justice to public and civil enc
miles, In the case of France, these tri-
bunals sentenced to be shot or to be
transported to Cayenne over 1900 per-
sons, and yet these tribunals exercised
their functions after the close of the war
until the advent of complete peace.
Therefore, Spain, in the midst OF her
war in Cuba, maintains the right OF
using courts martial to try offenders
against her laws, but really makes the
concession that American citizens can
have their advocates or attorneys, and
produce witnesses in their own behalf,
conformably to the provision of article
of the treaty of 1876, and according to
the regular course of proceedings IN
such cases, and gives guarantees OF such
a mode of defense. Of course, in the
case of Spanish subjects, no exception
will be made which will allow them the
enjoyment of this advantage In defend
i ing themselves against prosecution by
the Spanish authorities for their offenses
In these cases the advocates will be
designated by the chief military authors

Asses, Milk.

English physicians are in the habit OF
sending patients to Italy, to get the
benefit of the climate and drink asses
milk. In order to secure the purity OF
the milk, the asses are ordered each day
to the patients door, where the milking
is done under his own eye or that OF a
servant or friend. A traveller, writing
Of this custom, says that 50 the ass mixers
in the italian towns usually carry a
bladder of lukewarm water under their
cloaks, kept up to the heat of the body
under the armpits, of the contents OF
which they furtively infuse portion
into the several milk Jugs in the face OF
the domestics, who never suspect the
trick. Thus. are poor patients, when
given up by the faculty and sent to
anguish under an italian sun, and die,
turned over to the tender mercies OF
tricksters, generally the associates OF
creatures of cheating hotel keepers.

Story of the Big Squash.

The. big squash of Amherst Agricul
tural College farm, which grew so stout
ly that it burst several iron cages, and
finally lifted 4, 100 pounds land of which
a plaster cast is preserved), had enough
roots under ground to feed it for it's her
culean work. The squash vine was
washed out with it's roots by the contin-
ued use of garden hose for twenty
four hours, and the whole root system
was spread out on floor and carefully
measured. The main branch was twelve
or fifteen feet long, and aggre-
gated some 1000. One of the
seventy modal roots, four feet
long, had 490 branches, and q most
careful estimate of the ramifcations of
the rootlet, based upon the actual
measurement Of the division, showed
that the squash vine had been fifteen
and nineteen miles of roots. Reckon
ing the number of hays it had been
growing, (fifty-two,) it was found that
it must have been on an average 1000
feet per day, and on favorable DAYS
about 2, 1000 feet. Col. Clark, the Pres
ldent of the Agricultural College, says
that while this growth was going on,
and the big squash was expanding and
lifting it's enormous burden, great drops
of sweat stood all over its rough rind,
proving that it felt the great task i'm
posed upon it.

Crop Prospects in Kansas.

Reports received by the State Board
of Agriculture from forty -seven Kansas
counties show the condition OF wheat to
be several per cent above the average
of former years, while the average is
nearly one third larger than ever be-
fore. The condition of the crops is
fully ap to the figures ofpreviousyears,
with the exception Of fruit, which is IS
to 80 per cent. below the general
average. Work animals are in good
condition. The grasshoppers have
been set upon during the last few days
by fly whose eggs breed mageots. and
cause certain death. Millions of hop
pers are being destroyed by this little
insect, and it now looks as if the plague
might thus be speedily stayed. No
great damage has yet been done IN
Kansas, and the farmers are feeling
moro hopeful than at any time since the
spring opened. With the exception OF
the 'hoppers, there has never been sucn
promise of abundant crops In Kansas
as at present.

In one long, loud, reverberant peal of dread,
Ceaseless it rolled-till, as sea of fire.
The climax, gained, must wave by wave retire
To, half-reluctans, up the fields of space
The refuent thunder softened into grace;
Its deep, harsh menace changed to murn,urs

As the lost South Wind 8 muf1ed in the snow,
Waning through whisperous echoes less and

Till the last echo sleeps in gentleness!
Thus minded am / of that Law of Old f
Which dowa the slopes of awful Sinai rolled
Smote men with Judgment yet at last,
The lightning flame and mystic tumult passed,
Lapsed down the ages, echoing less and less

Melts into mercy on the heart of Christ.

Spanish Finances.

~ London Spectator.
The accounts Of Spanish finance grow
worse than ever. According to the
Madrid correspondent of the Times, the
revenue, which in 1871 was 923, 100000
= is now not above e16, OO0-while the
debt has reached e530, 900, 900, at per
centum, the interest absorbing within a
fraction the entire revenue. Of course
the interest is not paid, and except
under some compromise in bankruptcy
never will be. Spain could scarcely
raise more than ESQ, 100000 year by
any exertion, or afford more than a
four of that for the interest on the
debt According to S. Salaverria,
the war expenditure now absorbs G15,-
100000 year, or nearly the whole
revenue, leaving FL, OOO,OO for the civil
service, the magistracy, the Church,
and the central department of public
works. Until the war ends, and Cuba
is either released Or pacifed, there is no
hope of improvement; and, even when
it ends, a bankruptcy of some kind
must be proclaimed. The Spanish Treas
ury is still much better off than the
Treasury OF France vas when the States
General were called together, but then
Spain hes not a people ready to change
all, try all, and endure all in the bore
of arriving at an Utopia.
Death in a Street Car.
The following pathetic story is told
by the San Francisco Bulletin of May
IL: A sad incident occurred to-day in a
Fourth street car. On Kearny street,
some distance beyond the City Hall, a
lady stepped aboard the car, having in
her arms babe some five or six weeks
old. The child was evidently in pain,
and moaned and writhed in the mothers
arms. She seemed to suffer acutely
from anxiety for the little one, whose
face was turning rapidly to a livid
deathly color The passengers were
interested in the painful anxiety Of the
woman, and when she burst into tears
and pressed the infant to her arms and
kissed the cold lips, there was not dry
eye in the car. It had died appare emily
without any strong spasm of agony.
For few minutes before it breathad it's
last it was perfectly quiet. The car
stopped at Mission and Fourth streets,
and the weeping mother left with the
infants body in her arms.
