In lake near st. Paul the other day
box was picked up containing two hui
man heads, and there is great excite
ment. We do not see why there should
be great excitement. The probability is
that, though human heads were plenty,
boxes were scarce, and tine man put the
two in one box to economize. 1t may
not have been very good taste, but we
cannot see any reason to get excited be-
cause our ideas of propriety differ from
those of other people. We have not all
been brought up alike.-PecE's Stoa.

Frontier Literature,

Advices from Eufaula, Indian Territory, say:
One of those terrible family feuds, SO common
in this country, has eliminated in the murder
4. of two men and the prospective laying out of
few more. John Taylor, Cherokee, with
Choctaw wife, took into his family Sam Bro
ken, relative, whose father and brother have
both been killed in family feud. Taylor and
broken had some trouble, when the former took
his gun and went to field where Sam was at
work, fired both loads into his body and killed
him. James King, Elias Folsom and Wilson
Fanat, friends of Sans heard the news and
went to Taylor's house. Taylor got up, pulled
on his pants, and then sat down on the side of
the bed and asked what they intended to do
with him. King replied, or rather his shotgun
did, and the deadly charge went tearing through
his breast. He fell over on the bed, and Fol-
som and Fanat then paid their respects to the
corpse by pouring another volley into it. Tay-
lor's wife seized her child, whose garments were
dripping with his fathers blood, and made her
escapeto the woods. The party is still on the
war-path, looking for old man Taylor and they
openly assert that they intend to kill off the en-
tire family and any one who supports them.
