Let the Good Work go on

Gankton, Nov. l5.-Brave Bear, the
Sioux Indian chief, convicted Of the
murder OF Joseph Johnson, near Fort
Sully, on the 10th of May, 1879, was
hanged to-day in the Jail yard, the exc
cution being private. He was taken
from the Jail to the United States mar
shals office, in one Of the upper rooms,
and there bound With straps, leaving his
feet SO that he could walk to the scaiTold.
After his arms were pinioned he called
for an interpreter, and they had a feA
moments private conversation. He
made no confession but did not denv
the crime for which he was convicted.
lie asked the Interpreter to send word
20 his people to make no attempt To
nvengc his death, and to omit the GUS
tomary mourning. He also asked that
the message he had sent to his people
be conveyed to the president of the
United States, that the Great Father
might know he had given good advice.
At the conclusion Of his talk, Brave
Bear was led TO the place of execution
just outside the building. He mounted
the scailold with a firm tired and stood
upon the trap which was soon to drop
from beneath him and hurl him into
eternity. His legs were securely pinned
by straps and buckles, the ROPE was adj
jnsted about his neck, and the awful

was drawn over his face, and most of
the attendants stepped back to the sides
of the platform. By this time Brave
Bear was beginning to weaken, and il
was necessary for a couple of officers to
stand neal to sustain him. In his merry
Gus agitation he caught hold of the
dropping rope as it swung in front of
him and clnng To il with tie fingers of
his pinioned hands, and then an officer
released his hold and moved the rope
out of his reach. Thus he stood, bound
hand and foot, awaiting the signal
which was to send him To instant death.
the priest advanced TO his side and
whispered Il few words of prayer, and
then stepped back to the edge Of the
platform. The officer in charge pulled
a string that rang a bell in the marshals
office, and a man concealed in the room,
in response TO the signal, jerked the
rope attached to the trigger under the
scaflold, ana at 1913 o O'Clock the drop
fell. The Indian Shot through the e
ing and is the rope pulled there was a
cracking sound he struggled for Il few
moments but the end came quickly.
Soon there was nothing but n convulsiye
%twitching of muscles, and i'm fifteen min
utes from the time the drop fell Brave
Bear was pronounced dead by the at
tending physicians. Fifteen minutes
later the body was cut down and deliver
ed to the undertaken, who caused il TO
be buried in the Catholic cemetery.
There was little excitement attending
the execution. Everything was orderly
and the affair was contaminated without
al accident. This is the first instance
where an Indian has been hung i'm d.
kota for crime committed against white
men.

In the report of the president Of the s..
Louis Merchants exchange it is stated that
the shipments by river last year equalled
sst, OPS tons, or l73,00s tons less than the
previous year, or only 1000 tons more
than were moved in 1872. The loss in
river shipments seems strangely at variance,
says the report, with the improvements of
barges and other appliances in transporta-
ton which have gained such popularity for
the Mississippi. The loss can be fairly
sscribed to the result Of speculation and de-
hcient haryests which induced high prices
and enlarged all exports of produce"
