KING PHARAOH DEAD.

H0,v He Snccertledt to the Title-The Manner
Of His DentI,-His Successor.
David Pharaoh, King of the remnant of
the tribe of Montauk Indians, died in Mon
tauk on Thursday last. His body was buried
at the expense of the town of Easthampton,
the eastern extremity of which is Montauk.
The Indians, now largely mixed with African
blood, hold right of occupancy on the
promontory which Judge Dykman has de-
cided must be looked upon as an incum-
brance. King David was the son of Eleazer
and Aurelia Pharaoh. King Eleazer died
some five or six years ago, and the title, in
stead of falling to his son by right of
primo 5eniture was conferred upon him by
election, this being the manner OF selecting
their rulers by the morden Montauks Queen
Aurelia was found dead on the floor OF her
cabin something less than two years ago.
David married early daughter of William
| Fowler, another Indian of the tribe, and the
union resulted in numerous offspring, the
Oldest of which is about 81. King David
was only 40 years of age, though old and de-
crepit in appearance. Last spring he tot
| tered into the court room at Riverhead and
gave testimony before Judge Dykman Ill the
| Montauk partition suit. His shattered con-
stitution and early death were, no doubt, the
result of those vices which are so common
with the aborigines. His last disease, how
ever, was pulmonary consumption. On the
Saturday previous to his death he was in
Sag Harbor, and lay for several hours in the
body of an open wagon, unable to move
from it W thout help. He expressed desire
to see the village again before he died. The
same evening he was carried to Montauk,

"ANYTHINa TO BEAT wAsHBuRN."
This is now the motto of the St. Paul
GLOBE, and just now we do not propose to
controvert the position that sometimes such
a motto may indicate high resolution. The
GLOBE is evidently in dead earnest in this
matter, as it has proposed to put up Donnel-
ly as standard bearer for its purpose.
While we should much regret to lose Donnelly
flom the contest in this district, we should
feel in large measure compensated by view
ing the fight from this distance across to
the third district. But Mr.. Donnelly don't
seem to snap at that hook very sharply. The
reason cannot be that D. has got tired of
running for Congress; nor that he would be
yrieved to be an instrument to defeat Wash
burne. son the contrary, quite the reverse
1t may be that Bro. Donnelly has got just
the faintest suspicion that some monkey
wants him to pull hot chestnuts out of the
fire, and Donnelly don't want to pull
such chestnuts out of the embers
unless he is to have the eating Their of.
From what we have seen and heard from
prominent Democrats in the Third district,
we have ceased to regard Halls proposition
as joke. We begin to realize that he
means it-as a matter of business. The
GLOBE has continually told us that Wash
burn was running this campaign with money;
and having bought up or demoralized l'r.
Stewart, of course the next best card to play
would be to overcome the GLOBE in the
same way. For certainly on no other by
pothesis could so rational journal propose
Donnelly as the means to Cheat Washburn.' .
Halls mission is to ssraisa hi and sell
newspapers but nothing so farcical could
happen in this contest as the pitting of our
Republican Democratic Greenback National
necromancer Donnelly against Washburn
And anything to beat Washburn' would
turn out to be like the strategic management
of Jarrett & Palmer in the ''Black Crook, .
when the New York Herald was paid BOO {
day to write it down-the result being that
everybody went to see it.

He COtttd PyOve 1T.

A day or two ago the GLOBE announced
that the county board of equalization had
adjourned after calling upon Assessor VAR
ner, Of Minneapolis town, to come down and
explain his manner of assessment. Mr..
Warner clms, ac5)r,lin, to ingit.tlol, AMI
met the board when it was called to his
notice that he had assessed with very great
inequality. For instance, one well
knuwu gentleman with at least $4,000
worth of household goods was assessed
the paltry sum of $500, and many other
like instances. V. looked o ground over
with owl like wisdom, but declined to cross
or dot an i in his personal assessment,
1t was right, he would swear to it. and that
closed the matter. Some of the board sug-
gested that if he did not do what he could to
make his assessment valid, his bondsmen
might suffer. That walked Mr. V. up, aud he
replied with equal truth and dignity that he
had only sworn to discharge the duties of the
Office to which he was elected with such skill
and ability as he might possess, and he could
prove by every neighbor and acquaintance
that he did rot possess either skill or ability.
He therefore defied the board to take action
against his bondsmen.
That settled the matter. as we'll as the
board and Mr. V. wa, allowed to depart in
peace, while his returns remain uncorrected
even unto this day.

A DEED OF DARING.

Ono 41ache Indian Stan.pedes Four
Hundred Head Of Cattle Right UMder
the Noses OF the Hcrdsnten.
An instance of what an Apache Indian will
do in the way of cool daring, when the prize
is worth the fisk, once occurred on ranch
in Arizona.
The owner of the ranch was an American.
To guard against the Apaches he had built a
block. house, and, adjoining it, courtyard
and corral. surrounded by an adobe wall
eight feet high and two feet thick. In the
corral the heard was nightly secured.
He had contract to feed and guard four
States fort, some thirty miles away. More
than one attempt had been made by the
Apaches to capture the herd, while feeding
two or three miles from the block house.
But the viligant herdsmen had driven the
cattle at gallop into the corral before the
Indians could stampede them.
One night there came fearful storm. A
solitary Apache, unarmed, and with nothing
but a blanket to protect him from the cold
rain, climbed over the corralS wall; crouch
ing in the corn. T he waited for day.
Early in the morning, the storm having
passed away, eight herdsmen, mounted and
armed waited at the corral gate for the herd
to be turned out.
The gate was opened. The stock poured
out and filled the gateway. Suddenly, up
sprung the Apache: yaulting on the nearest
horse, he clutched its main with one hand,
while with the other he waved hi led blanket,
and yelled like a demon.
In an instant every '.hoof'' made rush,
and the stampede began. The horse,
frightened, darled in the midst of the flying
cattle.
AS in frenzy, they went through the
gateway, the Apache clasped his arms around
the horses neck, and, throwing his body on
one side of the maddened animal, disap-
peared from view.
A thousand men arranged in solid column
could not have stopped that rush of the
crazed herd down the valley. The herds
men fired volley which W, unded and
killed some of the cattle.
Two bands of Apaches daring out from OPP
posite sides of the valley, closed up from
behind the herd. Four hundred head of
cattle were thus captured and run of by the
daring and cunning of one Apache.
