than heretofore; he has been naus Gated

awaited by the public. At the execu-

Dog were in Washington together the
last time there was bad blood between
them and they carried pistols for each
other.
Spotted Tail was ambitions to become
chief OF all the Sioux, and Grow Dow
was an aspirant for great honors in the
nation, and the department is satisfied
that this rivalry led to the killing.
1t is said here in Washington upon
the authority of persons in the Indian
bureau, that the Indian troubles in New
Mexico grew out of bad management
at the Navajo agency. Eastman, the
agent, was once removed because OF his
unpopularity with the Indians, but a
few months ago was restored. The In
dams hate him and have protested
against his being placed over them.
The Indians are so much dissatisfied
that it is said they will not stay at the
agency while Eastman is in charge.
The Indian bureau has information
that the Utes are quietly and peaceful
ly preparing for the change of reserva-
ton.
CHICAGO, Aug. 9.-Major A. S. Bart,
of the U. S. A., now stationed here, in
an interesting interview. gives some
points about Spotted Tail, which
may account for his death at
the Rosebud agency. He was a
great friend of the whites, partly be-
cause he was wise enough to know that
hostility towards them only injured the
Indians and was hopeless; he was a
man of iron will, and enforced implicit
and unquestioning obedience to his
commands. 1t was his custom to step
into the street with Winche ster rifle,
notify a recalcitrant or wavering sub
chief that the eye of the Great Spirit
was on him, and that unless he obeyed
the commands of his chief, he would
probably be at once transferred to a
happier world. The argument was
always potent, for Spotted Tail was
known to be man Of his word. The
government made him chief Of police
in their employ. Major Burt knew
nothing of Crow Dog, but presumed
that he may have been chosen by the
agent at the Rosebud agency to the po-
sition which "Old Spot" had so long
filled, and this may have excited ami
mostly and been the cause of the per-
sonal conflict.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 9.-The Indian

Dog, another Sioux Chief. No par
aculars are yet received. There has
been bad feeling between these two
chiefs for long time and recently the

1t is with feelings of sorrow that we
chronicle the death of Edgar Case, q
well known and respected citizen. He
died at his residence in the northwest
part of Rootstown at two o'clock On
Monday morning last, of typhoid
pneumonia, after an illness of ten days.
He was 81 years of age, the son of Ly-
man Case, and was born in ROOtstOwn,
where he spent the most part of his
life. He was united in marriage thir-
ty-two years ago last October with
Miss Martha Guth, of Cleveland, W no

result of this union, a son and daugh-
ter. The son died two years ago last
August, and the daughter, Ida P. wife
of Reuben Jennings, died at the resi-
dence of her husband, in Kent, at 2
p. M, on Saturday last, aged twenty
four years October 23d, 1880. She
leaves two infant children-a girl babe
aged two weeks and three days, and q
little boy aged four years, without the
tender care of kind and devoted
mother. The funeral services of father
and daughter took place at the late
residence of Mr.. Case, and their re-
mains were laid to rest side by side by
loving and sympathising friends in
Maple Grove Cemetery on Tuesday af-
ternOOn.
Mr.. Case was an excellent citizen, q
kind-hearted, honest, faithful man
whose word was as good as his bond.
His friends and neighbors will sadly
miss him, and will sympathize with
his family and relatives in their great
aff1ictiOn.
