THE Chicago Tribune says that
the congressional district in which
Mr.. Morrison ran was carved out by
the Republican legislature to accom-
plish his defeat, and as it had given
Garfield plurality of 56S, the car
vers felt sure of their ground. But
Morrison's plurality, in the face of
that fact, was 2145 over his Repub-
licar opponent. The Tribune adds ::
at is noteworthy that the campaign
in this district was waged al
most exclusively on the issue
of high prohibitory tariff VS..
revenue reform. The district was
flooded with protectionist literature,
and the workmen of Belleville, East
St. Louis and Alton were begged
to protect themselves against the
pauper labor of Europe. An i'm
mense amount of money was thrown
into the district by the prohibitory
tariff men to defeat Col. Morrison.
But it was all in vain. He met the
issue squarely and was triumphantly
reelected by an increased majority

SAVAGE ROMANCE.
Thrilling Scene in An Indian vii
lsgs.
A Beautiful Squaw Saved From
the Stake by White Miners
and Soldiers.

PORTLAND, OREGON, May 25.-The
Strickeens, a tribe of Indians. have
their lodges near the town of Harris
burg, Alaska. Their laws are very
rigid as to the chastity Of their women.
Unchastity and a number of other Of.
lenses, besides murder, is punishable
with death. Since the country has be-
come somewhat settled by whites,
some of the Indians have fallen into
the vices of civilization. When the
men of the tribe are away there has
been communication between the
white settlements and the women left
behind in the tepees. Moneen, a very
handsome squaw, wife of one Of tie
chiefs of the tribes during the absence
of her husband, became quite init
mate with a soldier stationed at Hsr-
risburg. The woman became so bold

der that the condition of affairs be-
came known to the other squaws and
the old men. Through her some Of
the petty offenses ofthe Indians we're
made known to the officers. A few
days ago the men OF the tribe returned
from their hunt. It was noticed that
there was unusual excitement in the
Indian village. A council was held
at which there was much beating Of
drums and great ceremony. This
morning the Indian camp was alive at
an early hour. A stake had been set
in the ground just outside of the camp
around which a large number ~offagots
had been placed. Some of the. soldiers
attracted by curiosity, went to see
what it was all about. They learned
that the squaw had been adjudged
guilty Of adultery by her tribe, and
that in an hour she was TO be burned
at the stake.
The news spread among the miners,
who at once applied to the officers to
prevent it. The miners rescued the
woman, but not without stout resist
ance from the Indians. Quite a Skin
mish epsued, but the savageS we're
finally driven off and the woman safely
conveyed to the town aud placed un-

Nojournalist in England to-day has
achieved wider celebrity in his pro.
iession than Henry Labouchere, edi.
tor of London Truth. There are, no
doubt, many far ADLER editors and
more powerful writers on the English
press than he, who are doomed to COM
parative oblivion, while the name OF
Labouchere is as familiar on this side
ofthe water, to say nothing about the
other side, as those of the leading edi-
tors of the American metropolis. 1t
is simply because Labouchere has
learned the knack of writing for the
people. The vast majority of the
writers of the press of Great Britain
toll on a labored leader, while Labou-
chere dashes off a sprightly paragraph.
They write for the deep thinking few,
while he caters to the masses. In a
word, Henry Labouchere instills wide
awake, Yankee ideas into staid, sedate
English journalism. He is known as
THE p~ersonalist, which title he won,
by his pointed paragraphs on the no
bility and aristocracy, his satirical
pen knowing neither blood nor birth,
and getting him into several famous
libel suits in England. His articles
on Albert Edward, Prince of Wales,
aud Mrs. Langtry were especially re
freshing. He was born in London in
1881, began his education at Eton
school and completed it at the Uni
versity of Cambridge. Upon gralu
ating he set out to see the world. He
travelled in Mexico a portion Of the
time with a wandering cir
Gus as assistant business
manager, with one of the fair dashing
equestriennes ofwhieh he had become
deeply enamored. From Mexico he
journeyed to the United States. aud at
st. Paul he joined a party Of Chippe.
way Indians, with whom he lived for
six months. When he wearied of this
he went to New York, from whence
he applied to the British Government
for a diplomatic position at Washing
ton. Receiving no reply to his appli-
cation, for a time the old nomadic
spirit seized him again, and he set out
on another western expedition. One
day, however, while riding on the
cars, he was surprised in glancing
over a newspaper to see that he had
received the coveted appointment, and
went straightway to the capital. He
held this position two years, and con-
tinued his connection with the Brit.
ish diplomatic service at st. Peters
burg, Munich, Frankfort, Stockholm,
Florence and Constantinople. He
was elected to Parliament in 1864, to
represent Windsor, Berks, but was
unseated before the expiration Of his
term, for bribery. The celebrated
siege of Paris overlook him in the
French metropolis. but he improved
his captivity by sending the famous
"Diary Of a Besieged President to
the London Daily News. he subse
quently became associated with Ed.
mund Yates on the editorial staff o.
the London World, a society paper o.
considerable note, but severed hi
connection to begin the publication o.
Truth, a rival in the same Journalistic
field, and now one OF the sprightliest
most successful and widely copied o
English papers. At present Labou
chere is the member for Northamp
ton, and, as he was ever, an uncom
promisig Radical in politics.
