Captain Girdon, Z. S. Local Inspector
of steamboats,, has evidently made up his
mind that there shall be as little blame at
tached to anybody in the Jennie Gilchrist
disaster as any endeavor of his can render
possible. He is now sending kilograms Of
which the following is sample. One in
the New York World reads:
GALENA, HI. November 14.-The Gov
eminent inspectors who have been investi-
eating the Jennie Gilchrist disaster will
.exonerate the officers from all blame on the
score of alleged drunkenness. They find
that the accident was caused by the break
ing of cam-rod.
Captain Girdon is one of the sort of men
who crys out before he Is hit and his first
move was to write a letter to Mr.. r. R.
Jones of ST. Paul, in which he attempts to
exonerate himself from charges never
made against him. He seems to be
troubled with the idea that he did not do
his duty and desires to convince people
that he did, before anybody finds out he
did not. The Investigation which he
claims to have made was startling farce.
Captain Girdon refused to either have it
public or to give the testimony to the pub
lie afterwards. Considering the way which
he went at said pretended investigation,
the assertion is justified that he fully in
tended to F'exonerate@ everybody at the
start and the character of the testimony
developed was of no consequence in deter
mining his report The investigation now
being carried on by Coroner Morris is gett-
ing at the bottom facts: and testimony is
being taken for the purpose of forming
verdict not as an excuse for giving one.
When the report is made it will be time for
Captain Girdon to pirate about exoneiation,
until then he had best be silent

CURRENT COMMENT.

: This being the pivotal State, it is more
more than possible that Chester A. Arthur
will be the next Presidential candidate O
our opponents. He is a shrewd manager
and his influence in New York State poll
tics combined with all the advantages o.
the Presidential power make his position
exceedingly strong. If victory depends
upon New York, and if Mr.. Arthur car
show that he is more likely to carry this
State than any other republican candidate
he claims that the Presidential nomination
viii not easily be disputed. In the late
canvass the Presidents hand was hardly
seen; it will doubtless be felt IN the coming
! Gubernatorial contest, and the Democratic
party must therefore expect to have the
whole Federal and State patronage arrayed
against itself. Yet the outlook is not more
unfavorable than it was on the eve of the
election Of 1874 If the party is true to it
self it will recover control of the State Gov
eminent, but the nature of the task should
be well understood by the representatives
of the democracy at Albany and at Wash
ington.

Day by day it is becoming clearer that
the declaration of President Arthur, made
over the dead body of his lamented pred
ecessor, that he would so far as lay within
him pursue the wise policy inaugurated by
that predecessor, was mere buncome. If
it had any meaning at the time, it was
soon forgotten. Some curious things
have already happened in Washington
since Arthur became President, but anoth

The report of the testimony taken by
the treasury investigating committee was,
by the vote Oh John Sherman, Malone,
David Davis and other members of the
Senate not made public.
John Sherman professed to be willing
nay, anxious that the report of the COM
mittee be published, knowing that the re-
port was incomplete because it had been
stopped the moment it began to implicate
him; but when it was suggested that it
would be better to publish the testimony
before the committee, he grew cold. He
did not desire this, and through his oppo
sition the motive was defeated. However
parts of it have been leaking out, and pre-
scented it to the public.

THE DELINQUENT.

One day last week, Willie sad and dreary
AS we wended, weak and weary,
Across the unswept floor;
We heard, ut first, a gentle tapping,
Then it became an earnest rapping,
AT our sanctum door.
"Come in!" we said, while yet we pom
derel,
And in silence we still wondered
What for us could be in store;
Then, the door-bolt gently turning,
In he walked. Our check was burning
AT thoughts of crimson gore.

What word will rhyme with this bu

Quickly thought we DER and o'er.)
"Sir, we are" we gently told him,
Nodding to the boys to hold him,
If he tried to beat us sore.

Opposite that little debit,
For two dollars more.

AS long as you will strive to make it
AS good us it has been BEFORE"
We jumped! he lodged! thus we miss
ed him,
Or we surely would have kissed him
No matter if the boys did roar;
SO seldom treated in this manner,
We felt inclined to sing hosannah!
Only this and nothing more.

her laughter and her tears have all

depths Of her heart. She is tender
yet she can resist unto death.
Night and morning meet in her hair
and in her eyes. You would never

his gun, and so. forgetful of the mo.

forth into the stubbles Of his globe.
He had not been out long before he
got shot; but scarcely had he done

voice Of the parish clerk shouting
after him, "sir, the young people be
ready, and be at the church a wait.

"Bless me-" said the old gentle
man, Il forgot; I'll be there in mo.

partridge he had shot, and putting
it i'll his pocket, he hurried to the
church.
In the midst Of the ceremony.
something was seen to be lattering
under his surplice; and Ia moment
to the astonishment of everybody,
from its folds flew the partridge, but
it had been more stunned than
killed.

RED RIYER-ITS EARLY NAVIGA.
TON.

A correspondent of the New Or
leans Democrat over the nom de
plume Of Old Time says:
As early as 1919 Bernard de la
Harp received grant from the
French government, and established
a colony on Red River, ncer the pre-
sent site of Natchitoches. The
French kept up communication with
this city until France rclinquished
the whole territory of Louisiana to
the Spanlards in l764. The Match
itoches country at this time con-
tanned population of Sll people,
white and black. The Spaniards
held possession until 1903, when the
Frerch again took possession and
sold the territory to the United
States government in 1904. During
all these years trade was kept up
with The Natchitoches country via
Red River. In 1906 the Spaniards
were assuming hostile attitude;
General Wilkinson, Of the United
States army, concentrated large
force Of troops at Fort Adams, and
with fleet Of nine gun boats and
barges, assembled Red river to Match
itoches, and compelled tue Spaniards
TO eyacaate the country and fall
back into Mexican territory. The
Red river country soon after began
to fill up rapidly with American en-
grants, who kept up communication
with this city by means of barges.
THIS continued until 1916, when the
first steamboat the Enterprise
made two trips to the Falls. In
1917 steamboats, commenced max,
ing trips to Natchitoches. This
place for many years continued to
be The head of navigation, as the
foot of the great raft was only
short distance above this place. Be-
tween the years 1892 and 1888 this
raft was removed, and navigation
opened the Whole length of the river.
The time Of the first forming Of this
raft is beyond the memory of man,
mar is there any evideLce on record
in regard to it, but judging from the
fact that it waS17O miles in length,
it must have taken over q hundred
years to form it. AS it formed, the
raft forced the water from the main
channel and formed lakes covering
large areas Of land, sometimes so
miles square in surface. It was not
It'll 1913 that the head waters of this
river were explored by Capt. Marcy,
Of the Uaited States army, who found
that the source of the river began
in Llano Estacado or great plains of
New Mexico. The length of the
river from source to mouth is 1900
miles. The upper portion for about
700 miles is about half a mile in
width. At flood time it is grand
looking stream, but when the waters
subside, there is but little of the riv-
er left, which is caused from the fact
that springing from the plains as it
does, where it is hot and dry nearly
two thirds of the year, tl.e- supply is
limited; and further that there are
few if any tributaries emptying into
it woathy Of mention.
