The Indian Creek Butchery.

Various theories are afloat with re-
gard to the recent butchery of Stephens
and Fritz on Indian creek. Many as
sert that the bloody work was not done
by Indians, but was the act of the
gang Of h~orse-thieves who have been
operating on the Black Hills road for a
year past under the reputed leadership
of Persimmon Bill.
Maj. S. R. Gwin, the veteran from
tiersman, who has been travelling back
and forth between this city and the
Hills, states that the Sioux scouts
enlisted to join Crook, and who recently
left Red Cloud Agency under command
Of Louis Richard, were expected at
Hat creek, 10 miles this side of the
place where Stephens and Fritz were
killed, on the day after Gwin pass
ed, and Major Gwin is convinced
that these Sioux perpetrated the
butchery, their incentive being the
Indians inordinate thirst for blood and
desire for plumber. Well informed
army officers here disbelieve this theory,
and seem rather to entertain the opin-
ion that the murderers of Stephens and
Fritz were white cut-throats. We ex-
pect- full particulars of the affair by to-
days coach.

Now that sentimental eastern editors
and friends of the Indian ring are be-
ginning to express pity for poor Lo, who.
they say, has been driven from his vii
lagos by Government troops, and forced
to wander, naked and starving, over
the saow-elad plains and mountains of
the cold Northland, and onaeeounto of the
untamed white mans thirst for gold, it
should be borne in mind that, long be-
fore the great tide Of gold-seekers swept
into the Black Hills, these same Sioux
oyerran portions Of Wyoming, Nebras-
ka, and Colorado, with even less lofty
aspirations than those stimulated by a
covetousness for gold. And it should
be remembered, further, that the re-
gions then invaded by the Indian had
been obtained from him by solemn trea-
ty, he naming his price.
We have all heard Of the repeated
massacres of whites, the desolation of
homes, and the stealing of stock accom-
plished by these red ~rufians, on the

and in very sight of the railway which
spans the Continent. 1t only came in

The frequency with which frightful
accidents occur from the explosion Of
coal oil lamps, and the many disagree
able experiences attending their use,
led inventors to study the subject Of so
improving these very necessary adjuncts
to human welfare, with the idea of
rendering lamps safe and their use and
handling not disagreeable. We have
had In u Office for some time one of
the new ''unbreakable, non-explosive"
parlor lamps for which Pease s. Taylor
are agents in this city, and it seems to
combine all the good qualities which
have go long been sought. Requiring
but a moment toprepare it for business,
giving a strong, steady light, with no
wavering or Pickering of the blaze, and
being withal, beautiful in design and
appearance, the new lamp is destined
to become, very popular when its many
good points become better known.
