An Indian Romance,

A remarkably romantic story is now
agtating Washington social circles. Ko-
wa-che, one of the chiefs of visiting
delegation of Indians from Arizona,
witt the other chiefs, attended innumer-
able social gatherings, and were eve1y-
where honized. The ladies' patronized
them, and ko- wa che was the particular
protege of a bright young girl of Wash
ington, who is well known as society
favorite. She met the young chief at a
social party given at the home of the
Indians host. The interest she took
in him differed in no way from that
manifested by her sister, and she led
him around, admired his dress and
talked pigeon English to him because
1t was the fashion to do so. The chief
imagined the girl was in love with him,
and responding to the tender passion,
he concluded to avow his regard.
Unfortunately, the delegation left about
this time, and Ko-wa che was taken
off with them. At Carlisle Pa, where
the tribe took rest, ko-wa- che was
determined to return to Washington
and carry of the maiden whether she
would or no. The members of the COM
mittee on Indian affairs received word
that ko-wa-che had made his contem-
plated effort to escape the vigilance of
his companions, and had been caught
sliding out OF the back entrance of the
hotel in the guise of waiter He was
promptly collared, and, as the informa-
ton went to the committee, is now
under the surveillance of the others
of the party, who are making for
the hackwoods country with their pris.
oner as rapidly as their tedious
course will permit.

What Detains them!

"Women do all the talking" did you
say sir? Yes, have frequently heard
that oft-repeated assertion. Indeed, /
am fully aware that women are pro-
verbally incessant chatterers. And yet,
can you tell me what detains Mr.. Brown
SO long every evening after his work
is done? He can't be talking to any
body, of course; but he is usually an
hour or an hour and half late in
getting home.
And can you inform me why Mr..
Jones stays so long when he goes across
the street to borrow an AK to chop a
little wood? We thoroughly understand
that he doesen't hold prolonged con-

that women do all the talking?

4 TRANQUIL Nervous system

Can never be possessed by those whose digestive
and assimilatve organs are in state of chronic
disorder. Weak stonacbs make weak nerves. TO
restore v;gor and quictude to the latter, the first
mast be invigorated and regulated. The ordinary
sedatves may tranquize the nerves tor while,
but they can never. like Hostetters Stomach Bit
ters remove the causes of nervous debility. That
superb iuvigorant and corrective of dtsordered
conditions of the alimentary organs has also the
effect of imparting tone to the nerves. The deli
cate tissues of which they are constituted, when
weakened in consequence of Impeachment OF
the blood, resulting from imperfect digestion and
assimilation draw strength from the fund OF VI
tally developed in the system by the Bitters,
which 'imparts the required impetus to the nutri
tive functions Of the stomach, enriches the olrcu
lation. and gives tone and regularity to the secre
tive and evacuatye organs.

LORD FREDERICK CAyENDIsH, the
newly appointed secretary for ireland
to succeed Forster, and under secre-
tary, Burke, were assassinated in Dub
lin on Saturday. They were out for a
walk and were set upon by four
ruffians who stabbed them to death

the cowardly atrocity, and those guilty
of the crime, aiding, abettipg, or APP

cover the guilty with a pail of even

successfully executed to have been

Cavendish was a mild liberal, and
