self. Since the beginning or the revolution

devoted himself with enthusiasm to the
cause of the insurgents.
t'Do you consider trustworthy - asked a
reporter, 1.-THE statement, recently publish

between Spain and Cuba?
"That," replied the Colonel, is q rurnor

rumors are set afloat periodically before
the meeting OF each session of your Con.
gress. Peace can at any time be obtained
but 1t can only be obtained on the basis O

the boys away" l suppose he was never

or he might find out what is against his
conscience to believe. If he was there
he is mistaken in his eye-sight; for he
was so prejudiced against the jockeys
that he never looked al, the horses trot,

1T is very likely that "Jockey" did not
like the reference to the swindling gam

may be one himself; but nevertheless pa

he does not deny that great kegs of "red-

MILES FIGHT-JOSEPH'S VISIT TO
NILES CAMP AND HIS PROMISE
TO SURRENDERED HOSTAGE SENT
TO THE INDIANS. .-l--".
ip rG FORT BENTON, NJ. T., Oct. 6,l
via Helena, Oct 8, 1877.
The courier from General Miles, who
brought the report of the fight near Bear
Paw Mountain states that Miles surrou uds
the Nez Perces' camp.
On enc of the first days of the fight Jo-
seph came into Miles camp and offered to
surrender number of soldiers arms which
he had captured in previous engagements.
While Joseph was retained as q prisoner,
Miles sent Lieutenant Jerome, of the Sec
ond cavalry; into the Nez Perces camp to
examine iuto its condition..
The indians seized Jerome as hostage
and held him over one dav and night. They
treated him kindly, tod him to seek hole
out of range of bullets, and provided him
with blankets to keep him warm, but told
him and sent word to Miles that If Joseph
was not returned they would be compelled
to kill him. Under the circumstances Miles
was forced to return Joseph, who is max
ing terrific defence in the last breach.
The escort here of the Sitting Bull Com
mission, consisting Of Derudio's company
of the Seventh cavalry and Captain Free
mans company of the Seventh Infantry,

HiesiinK Of the R. w; Grand Lodge
Of Dslsware-The OsAcBal Reports.
This morning the annual session of the
H. W. Grand Lodge of Delaware, 1. o.

ed at the morning session beyond the re-

THE GRAND MASTERS REPORT.
The Grand Master, Ezekiel W. Coop
er, in his repsrt, reviewed the work of
the past year which had claimed bis Off
cial consideration. The most important
item was the appeal of certain members
OF Hope Lodge from the action of the
Lodge In granting to the widow OF Fred
erlck Maltritz $3.50 funeral benefits. The
appellants held that Mr. MaItritz paid
bis dues, amounting to S1.79, on the
night OF December 9th, 1875, and on the
| 9TH OF January, 1877, received INJURIES
which caused his death the same day;
that as the bylaws provide that no mem-
Der in arrears shall be entitled to receive
Dement'S until one month after his indebt-
edness shall have been paid, the month
OF probation In the case of Mr.. Maltritz
had not expired and Therefore his case
was not entitled to the usual benefits. Iu
his decision the Grand Master held that
month, according to the calendar vari-
es from 20 to 81 days, but that its gener-
ally accepted length is four weeks or 80
days. For this reason he was of the
opinion that the benefits should be paid
and he therefore dismissed the appeal
The Grand Master also referred to the
fact that ssome Lodges are becoming banl
rupt by the ruinous relation of dues and
benefits, aud recommends the considera.
ton of the suhject bv a special commit
tee. Ia conclusion he compliments the
Grand Secretary, returns thanks to al
the Grand Officers, and expresses hi.
sincere desire for the future good Of the
order, and his intention to continue tC
do all in his power for the same.
The reports Of the District Deputy
Grand Masters refers more minutely t,
the work of the different Lodges, anC
show very satisfactory state of affairs
