REINsrATED.-Misled by a report
published in the Reno Gazette, we
some days ago were led to believe that
a certain high official had been re-
moved from Office by the hands of
some of his constituents. The very
worst thing that can be done in n new
country is to kill an Indian and then
bring him to life again, but this is
what the newspapers have done in the
case of old Chief Winnemucca. The
Sitter State of the 18th inst. has it
that the old piebter is not dead after
all. 1t seems that after being duly
mourneda as lost, the old chief suddenly
put in an appearance at Pyramid Lake
reservation a few days ago, when the
news was promptly telegraphed to his
friends at Winnemucca.-BoiSe States

Democratic politicians are very en-
thusiastic in the vicinity of Washing
ton City, and one result is given in
the following press dispatch from
Washington of Sept. Goth:
The confederates to-day have been
eXulting over an insult to the govern
ment such as they were never able to
accomplish by force during the days
of armed treason. \ rebel battle dag
with the stars and bars was Il up
and tioated for hours from Il Hancock
and English pole in Georgetown,
within sight of the capitol. Effort
was made to fly it in the congenial air
of Virginia, on Arlington Heights OPP
posite Washington, but the garrison
of Fort Whipple learned of the attempt
and told the enthusiastic democrats
in plain terms that the best way to
avoid trouble was not to give the rag
to the breeze in their vicinity. After
some parley therefore they decided
not to try but to bring it over to the
Maryland side and it was run without
opposition and seen by hundreds of
people.

DIR. HAHN's INCiNERATION.
A Discussion Over II Among the
Jewish People.
Pittsburgh Telegraph.

r1tsoorsh ieiesuaph.
Among the Jewish people, the inein-
Grafton Of DR.. Hahn is lively subject
oi conversation. While no canon oil
their religion forbids OF irowns upon
that method Of disposing Of bodies, con.
tinued practice ana custom has made
il repugnant to them. lt is generally
believed by the rabbinites than while 1t
was undoubtedly the custom OF the
Jews during the days OF their kings to
burn the bodies OF their distinguished
dead it was not generally done. This
fact is established, they say, by refer.
ence found in jeremiah xIxiv., 5, and
in Talmudical writings. They admit,
howeyer. that there is some doubt in
this position, and there are learned
Hebrews who believe no bodies were
ever incinerated, and in sustaining the
assertion they point to repeated express
sions in their early history which speak
oi the bones Of Joseph, Isaac, and other
patriarchs OF the tribe, being "laid to
rest with their fathers"
Professor Felix Adler, of the Society
Tor Ethical Culture, OF which the de-
ceased was not member, as has been
stated, ofiiciated at the obsequies OF DR..
Hahn before the remains were sent
away. Speaking OF the cremation to a
reporter Of the New York Herald, he
said; There is misIpprehension as
to the relation OF the Society to this al
lair. | was called in as any clergyman
would be to conduct the service. The
fact that the body was taken to a crema-
tory to be ineineraied has no more rela
ton to the Obsequies than il they had
been taken direct ~ cemetery for in
teTmcnt, as is the ordinary custom.
What want to put straight is that the
society is not, by this act, to be- regarded
as having indorssd cremation. 1t is
just the same thing in this instance as
II one Oi the members OF the Press Club
were to die expressing wish TO be Gre
mated, which wish Is executed. The
Press Club or the people OF the newspa-
per press attend the funeral services;
but II is not To be thought Tor moment
that they are thus committed to favor
incarceration. The example can be
made palmer by supposing the dead
man member Of the dry goods trade or
OF the Union League Club. The address
was made and the body was carried
away, whereat our part in the proceed
ings ended. Now as to the light in
whirh the Jews regard this departure
from the ordinary practice | am scarcely
prepared to speak. There is not, | be
lieye, any rule prescribing what DISPOSE
ton shall be made Of the dead; but the
Jews arc tenacious OF honored customs,
OF which this is violation. That there
is some and will be more feeling about
Il is not surprising.

The First Appearance OF the Yankees in
santa Fe.

santa Fe.
The First American who seems to
have penetrated New Mexico was James
Pursley, an adventurous iur trader who
found his way up the Arkansas, travelled
extensively through tho mountains OF
what is now Colorado, aud finally work
cd his way down to Santa Re, where he
went to work as u carpenter, growing
rich through high Wages, but suffering
always feeling Of restraint. An occa-
sional Frenchman had appeared; but
Pursley who, by the way, is credited
with being the first intelligent man who
discovered gold in the Rockiesl was the
sole citizen of the United States who was
there to welcome the immortal Pike
when, on that bleak March day in 1906,
he unwillingly tramped into Santa Fc
at the head oi his Falstatlian band, hat
less. bootless, and trOuserless through
wears campaigning on the plains and
and in the mountains.
The MeXlcans were greatly alarmed
by this sudden realization OF the prox-
unity OF the progressive and well-armed
Yankees, aud their CONSERVATION re-
suited very unhapily Tor the leaders OF
that conQuering tide that finally should
overwhelm the Gillette rule OF Spain IN the
New World, vet for long time after
Pixies expedition nothing occurred to
brighten further the proud and lndOlent
hidalgos.
