Calorow,s Cackle.

The Laramie Times reports the follow
ing speech of the Ute warrior, Colorow:
Warriors / have called you around the
council fire to talk with you. We are
not great nation. The bones of our peo-
pie are bleaching in the home of the pale
face. We are not numerous. The light
air and the fire-water of the white man
have yielded big crop of copp r-colored
"stiffs." / call to my people, and the
echo of my voice alone comes back to me
from the hills. Some are in the happy
hunting grounds. Others are in Lead

seldom. The buffalo and the elk too
have disappeared before the pale face.
Grass is growing in the war path.
The white man took away our lands
and built narrow-gauge railroads over
them. My people are few. ! shout and
their voices come back to me in the wall
ing winds. Our camp-ires have gone, out,
and we are compelled to use the base.
burner of the pale-face. The jerked
buffalo of our fathers has disappeared and
the white mans porter-house steak and
ierked pancakes are given us to keep
away starvation. These are our wrongs.
We have called on the Great Father at
Washington for redress, and he told us
to "brace up" Are these the words OF
kind father to his children? We asked
again, and he told us to "cheese it," Is
that the talk of great chief? No! We
are dropping off like autumn leaves.
The toes of the red man are turning
up on every hand. Cries of 80, let
up!' from the galleries. We are but a
handful. Where once our warriors were
as the sands of the sea, now there is not
corporal's guard. There are not enough
to make pie. The Great Spirit does
not like this. He has intimated as much
to me. He loves his red children, and
will not allow the pale face to get the
bulge on them. The buffalo, the elk and
the antelope belong to the red man. The

SPIRIT OF THE PRESS.
The English Papers Of This Morning,

The Enquirer sayswith reference to the
use of the army at the polls: Senator
Blaine appears in Ohio, denying that the
army has ever been used at the polls in
this country. The President said in his
veto messages that the army hadn't been
used, couldn't be used wouldn't be used
at the polls; but he and his party cling to
the right to use it with suspicious tenacity,
all the same. During the extra session it
was proved that the army had been used
in Indiana to influence elections Senator
Pendleton, in his speech at Edenton,
pointed out how the army had been used
in Kentucky to absolutely overawe and in
timidate voters. A committee of three mem
bers on the part of the Senate and five
members on the part of the House of Rep
resentatives of the State Of Delaware
once examined into the interference OF
United States troops with the elections in
that State The Committee reported:
"That the testimony of the witnesses
proves that the presence of military at the
polls did produce great intimidation and
alarm; did result in favor OF the Repub
l:can party and in the injury of the Dem
ocratic party; did prevent a free and fail
expression of public sentiment and die
secure the election of William Cannon az
Governor of this State (of Delaware) against
the known wishes ofa large majority of thu
legal voters of the State" And the Re
publican party, notwithstanding all of it
excuses and denials and subterfuges
still clings to the power to do thes'
things in the name of keeping the peac'
at the polls!"-The dirty charges mad
against Mr.. Sutton, Commissioner OF Po
lice, are without foundation, and but SHOW
the malignity Of bitter parlisanship. Mr.
Sutton is not drunkard he is not a bully

FIREMEN'S TOURNAMENT.
Opening Day at Chester Park.

After the street parade yesterday about
one thousand persons took advantage of
the opportunity to witness the opening of
the Firemen's Tournament at Chester Park.
The first race, sweepstakes for hand en-
gnes, for premium of 5000 in gold, was
to be contested for by the Ocean Fire Com
pany, of Cedarville, and the Defiance of
Marietta, but the Cedarville Company was
not present and the Defiance boys ran
alone. Within 80 seconds they pulled their
engine forty rods, took suction from the
lake, and got water through SO feet of
hose.
The half mile championship foot race for
members of hand engine companies for a
gold medal, was run by Hal. Reid, of the
Ocean Fire Company of Cedarville, and
VIM. Maegle and Daniel Distant, of the
Defiance Company, of Marietta. Maegle
won in 1926.
The steamer race between the w. E..
Ashbrook, of Covington Company No. L,
and the Tyler Davidson, of Cincinnati Com
pany No. 10, was the great attraction of
the day. The Cincinnati boys used the
team of the Fours, and won the two
straight mile heats, making the first in :55
and the second in 1853. The Covington
Company claimed that their engine was
the heaviest, and the race will be repeated
to-day with engines of the same weight.
The foot race of $50 yards, open only to
members of the Old Cincinnati Volunteer
Fire Department, was won by Adam B.
Wilson, member of the old Twos, in &c
seconds The other contestants were Cap
tain Chambers, of the Twenties Engine
Company, and Mr.. John E. Price, of the
old Eagle Company. The prizes were pre-
sented between the acts at the Grand
Opera House last evening. The programme

STRETCHING its long neck up in the
direction of Colorado is strip of Texas
territory known in the far West as the
Texas Panhandle. Hither the nomadic
red man has hied his footsteps lately, and
to keep his tomahawk from rusting he
has incidentally practiced with it upon a
few of the pastoral citizens. Comment
ing on this fact the Denver Tribune,
breathing spirit of neighborly love that
is really affecting, says: "Without mean
ing to slur the respectable citizens of that
corner of Gods footstool, and desiring
always to be understood as deprecating
Indian raids of any kind, the Tribune
ventures the suggestion thatif the Indians
must raid in any quarter, there are
probably as few objections to their
visiting the Panhandle as any other
country. At any rate, if the Indians
must kill white people, the chances are
that in the Panhandle they can find as
many as in any other section of the same
size and the same population who deserve
to be killed"

Professor Leopold Won Ranke, the

markable summary of recent events in

that term we do not understand the
Christian religion merely. What we
mean would be imperfectly denoted even
by the words culture and civilization

achievement, without, at the same
time, losing sight of that Eternal Truth
which, in spite of the diversity of theil
passions, orders and administers the
affairs of men. This spirit is, in oul
time making enormous progress. 1t has
won America from savage tribes, and sub

Ottoman Empire. 1t has found il

Collier-Shaddinger.

Mr. T. B. Collier, son of Captain Daniel
Collier, and Miss Mary E. Shaddinger,
daughter of Mr.. Joseph Shaddinger, of the
Cincinnati Enquirer, we're united in mar.
riage last evening at the residence of the
brides father, No. 80 George street. The
ceremony took place at o'clock, the Rev.
DR.. Wendte officiating. A grand reception
was given, after which the happy couple
left on the 9:15 train Tor an extended trip
throughout the East.

walking around the prostrate animal and
paving the ground. The Captain di-
rected Tom Donahue to go behind the
enraged Kerry and grasp the rope in the
moose ring, when he raised his head to
plunge at the Captain. Tom Donohue
used to be sailor. He cautiously ad.
vanced on the port side of the mad bull
and grasped the broken rope. The bull
quickly turned, and Captain Beatty
grasped his tail; and, with the middle Of
the animal as pivot, the two men flew
around like children around maypole.
The Captain managed to get one hand at
liberty, and he blew his whistle for help.
Assistance in the shape of squad Of
policemen came, and the black Kerry
was secured with ropes. The wounded
bull was taken to the animals hospital,
where his wounds we're cared for. In
loosing the white bull, Sergeant Gall
made bad cash in his hand.

FROM some remarks by the Mayor of
Detroit, as given in the News, we learn
that they select Chief Magistrate Of
that city by taking an innocent citi-

slack of the pants" and chucking him
into the position of Mayor. It's just the
same in Cincinnati, nobody wants an
office.

Deception in Cofrees.

When coffee was retailed in its natural condf.
ton, and roasted In small lots over the kitchen
lire, imperfect beans and impurities were
picked out by hand. With wholesale roasting
more expeditions methods were necessary, and
machines were invented to do the work with
greater economy and dispatch. From this
necessary operation to the invention OF pro-
ceSseS for polishing and cOloring interior goods.

step. The poorer grades OF coffee were
washed In colored water, and then treated to

honest dealers suspicious Of polished conees.
though the need Of machine cleaning was In no
way diminished. 1t Is possible, however, to
have coffee cleaned and polished by machinery,
and at the same time be honest.
BY this process the coffee is put into large
dred pounds, the cylinder being lined with
heavy linen and provided with cleats to in
crease the friction, when the beans are set in
motion by the rapid revolution of the CYLINDER
At one end OF the cylinder are number of
holes to admit air, and at the other suction

minute. The friction loOsens the dust and the

this treatment the coffee Is wet with pure
water and the machine again set In motion.
The coffee Is thus washed, and after half an

much improved In appearance by the polishing
