THE NOBLE RED MAN
To Come Down TO Ignoble Wor
For a Living.

EOr n LIVING
Tucson, A. T., Nov. 3.-The Stars
special from San Carlos. dated the
End, says that Gen. Crook held a
final conference with the Apaches
this morning. Every male Indian
on the reservation capable of bear
ing arms, not excused on account of
sickness, was present. They were
told that the time had now come
to make an effort to earn their
own living and support themselves.
After being among them nearly two
months, studying their wants, the
general was sorry to find how little
progress any of them had made to-
wards civilization and self support,
while the majority we're not so well
off to-day as they were eight years
ago when he left them.
They were fortunate at least in
having a good agent now, but he
might leave any time and one come
instead as bad as some of those they
had complained of SO bitterly. In
future the troops would not serve
as a guard while the Apaches were
being robbed and oppressed, but the
Indians must as far as possible de-
fend their own rights. Their present
locality being unadapted either to
farming or grazing, permission
would be given them TO select suita-
BILE lands on the reservation for cul-
tivation, under the care of their chief,
who would be held responsible for
the discipline and behavior of the re-
spective bands, and the chief would
be assisted by enlisting as soldiers
some of tribe, who would habitually
reside among their own people, Sc
lections be made with regards to the
character, influence and aptness to
acquire the new duties expected of
them. White soldiers would not be
employed except in cases where the
Apaches failed to govern them
selves. The Indians must learn self
dependence for the future. The ad-
dress was listened to with profound
attention by more than 1900 warriors
present, who seemed greatly inn
pressed by the counsel given.

The wool nIarket.

The following facts in regard 70 the
Boston wool market are learned from
the circular of Walter Brown d Co.. The
market has been somewhat depressed by
failures in the trade, but recovered at
the latest accounts on account OF strong
steady demand and the fact that prices
receded somewhat. There Is general
disposition to hold back the receipts
and not press them upon the market.

In ONE month the cabinet officers
will be sending in their annual re-

popular interest. Public sentiments
favors postal savings banks, reduc-

is very strong desire to see the

system that will do away with the
oppression and injustice and bad

COMPARISON is very frequently
made between wages in America
and England, and the fact that they
are higher in the former than the
latter is adduced as an argument in
favor of protection and against free
trade. The fact that wages in Ger
many, a highly protective country,
are lover than in England is wholly
ignored. So is another fact, quite
as significant, that the wages of
English workmen in all skilled em-
ployments have increased at least
twenty-five per cent in consequence
of free trade.

and the result will be just as we pre-

Had an Eve on Him.

That young Brown has become a
Christian, has hep" So said one business
man to another.
Yes, heard so. i"
"Well, I'll have my eye on him to see
if he holds out. I want trusty young
man in my store. They are hard to md.
If this is the real thing with him he will
be Just the man 1 want. I've kept my
eye on him ever since l heard of it. I'm
watching him closely"
So young Brown went in and out the
store and up and down the street. He
mixed with his old associates and all the
time Mr.. Todd had an eye on him. He
watched how the young man bore the
sneer of being a. one of the saints" if he
stood up manfully for his new Master
and was not afraid to show his colors.
Although Mr.. Todd took rides, went to
church, or did what he pleased on Sun
day, he was very glad to see that Brown
rested on the Sabbath day and hallowed
it. Though the Wednesday evening bell
never drew the merchant to the prayer
meeting he watched to see if Brown pas
sed by. Sometimes he said: "Where
are you going Brown" and always re-
ceived the prompt answer To prayer
meeting" Brown father and his teach
er were both questioned as to how the lad
was getting on.
For a year or more 'Todd's eyes were
on Brown. Then he said to himself
Hell do. He is real Christian l
can trust him. l can afford to pay
him. He shall have good place in my
store"
Thus, young Christian, others watch
to see if you are true; if you'll do for
places Of trust. The lOorld has its cold,
calculating eye on you, to see if your
religion is real, or if you are Just ready
to turn back The Masters loving eye is
on you also He sees not the missteps
alone, but also the earnest wish to please
Him. He, too, has places Of trust. The
work is pleasant and the pay good. These
places may be for you when, through
His strength, you have proved yourself
cue.
Fix your eye on His and He will keer
you in the way Congregatjonaljst.

The following excellent verses were write
: Richmond girl, II years of age.
See the merry little stream
As it dances in the CLEAN
OF the sunlight, down the mountain,
Through the still but sparkling fountain,
Through the verdant meadow flowing,
In Diana's pale light glowing,
Gurgling, bubling, always going
Where the many herds are lowing.
Where the robins song is nearest,
And the doves low note is clearest,
Where goes the blithsome little maid
With her eggs-just newly laid.
Through the fields where daisies grow,
Where the babies laugh and crow,
As they watch its ripples flow
Der the pebbles down below.
Where the gentle breezes flow,
Where sway the willows to and fro,
Where the cows their cuds do chew,
Where the fairies sip the dew
Still it travels on and on,
Resting ever and anon
To search out some secret nook
Or to gossip with the rock
Now it enters the calm lakes,
Where it still its freedom takes,
But these too at length are passed,
And in to the river last
The little stream doth run
Still It's laughter, still It's fun,
Til with the same dancing motion
IT'S lost in the great and endless ocean

DISTRESSING ACCIDENT.
A WelI-KnOwn Young Man Kills His
Bosom Friend by Accident.
Another Warning Against the Careless
Use of Firearms.
shreveport Standard, March I1th.]

shreveport Standard March I1th.
We learned Sunday afternoon from Mr.. j. &
Ogden, who performed the sad errand Of com
ing to town for the coffin and to make arrange
ments for the funeral OF most distressing ia
tai accident which occurred on the Gold Point
Plantation, about ten miles above here, Ill
BOssier Parish, at about sunrise Sunday morn
ing. 1t seems that Mr.. ThOS. w. Holmes, over
seer on the Gold Point place, and Mr. William
Gillian, who resided with his father Il few
miles distant, were strong bosom friends, and
both being young men, neither over twenty
three, we believe, were in the habit OF being
together whenever their duties permitted, ana
often sleeping together in the same bed. They
had an extreme attachment for each other.
On Saturday evening young Gillian went to
the Gold Point place to spend the night with
his friend, and before night the two amused
themselves firing at mark with pistol III
the morning when they awoke. about sunrise,
they laid III bed playing with the same pistol,
supposing all the barrels were empty. Not so,
however. a deadly bullet remained therein, and
when young Holmes placed it over the heart
of his friend Gillian, and playfully said IN
shoot you.' little did he think of the result
which followed. Young Gillian arose from
the bed after being shot and started toward
the door, when young Holmes threw his arms
around the neck OF his friend and grief-stricken
as he was looked into his face as he fell back
and expired, his last words upon this earth
being that he did not blame his friend Tom for
the accident
Young Holmes is suffering the greatest agony
over the unfOrtunat accident, and says ne
than to suffer the pangs OF grief he is now and
will continue to suffer over the most unfortu-
nate accident.
The burial case for the unfortunate young
Gillian was sent III, Sunday evening, and we
suppose. the funeral took place yesterday.
The bullet is supposed to have passed
through or near the heart. as death ensued so
quickly after the fatal shot was fired
