ing Rock agency having met in conference
at the latter point, Sitting Bull created
commotion by declining to talk with the
committee, on the ground that its mem
bers were drunk, and thereupon all the
Sioux withdrew. The monstrous alb
surdity of this accusation, and of the
implication that United States senator
ever would or could be drunk, aroused
the auger of Chief Logan. Sitting Bull
was given his choice between an apology
and the euardhouse. and lie selected the
former alternative. Then Chief Logan
administered sharp lecture to Sitting
Bull IN the presence of the other indians.
Whether the committee really was con
vivial, or whether the accusation was
born of Sitting Bulls Imagination and
tongue, does not clearly appear.

A London correspondent of the New
York World writes that it is the pre-
vailing impression there that Miss Cham
berlain, the American beauty abroad, will
get herself severely talked about if she
does not soon cut the society of the
Prince of Wales. Prudent mothers
here, writes the correspondent, would
prefer that their daughters should con-
tract the small pox rather thaa attract
the favor of His Royal Highness. He is
a deadly upas tree, and smites the poor
girl who thinks to rest under the spread
ing branches of his admiration with the
poison of the vilest scandal. Miss Cham
berlain is beautiful girl with all the wit
and self-reliance that characterize your
fair maidens, but these will not protect
her. This is hard for loyal Briton to
say, but it is the truth"

sli pped into deep hole at the mouth of
a small run emptying into the river at
that point The fathers attention was
directed to something else for moment
and he only saw his sons hand above the
water AS he went down Mr. Hale could
not swim, but, intent on saving his boy
rushed to the rescue of his child, and both
found watery grave. Mr. Hale lived in

of the Murderer.
i. ALTENBERG's FEARFUL WORK.
lNDIANAPoLIs, Ind Aug. 80.
Jacob Altenberg shot and almost instant
Iy killed Jacob Bush and mortally wounded
Samuel Campbell at the threshold of Magis-
trate FeibIeman's court Tuesday afternoon,
after which he coolly stepped into an ada
cent lot and deliberately blew out his own
brains. Altenberg and Bush were both over
fifty years of age, and were employed on
collections and in similar capacities
by the attorneys about the magistrates
courts, and until quite recently have
been constant companions, and be-
came fast friends. For an hour immedi-
ately preceding the tragedy they were en-
gagged in friendly game of dominOeS, and
approached the scene Of the killing laughing
and talking good-humOredly. When within
few feet of the door of the courtroom,
Altenberg stopped suddenly, drew his re
volver, and fired two shots, the first of
which struck Bush in the back, passing
clean through the body and making its exit
under the fifth rib. When Altenberg fired
the first shot, Campbell, who is a book
binder and well-hmOwn about town,
was passing within few feet. He
stopped, and at that instant
Altenberg fired again. 1t is not
smmised that he intended to shoot
Campbell. Indeed, he did not appear to
aim in any particular direction. The sec
ond shot struck Campbell in the abdomen,
inflicting a wound which the physicians
agree will be fatal. He then made several
futile attempts to discharge the weapon into
| his own brain, but the cartridges failed to
| explode With the greatest elaboration
Altenberg entered the Enclosure in the rear
of Lieber's store and, carefully readjusting
| the cartridges, took his own life.
! About a year ago Altenberg was di-
, vOrced, and shortly after married another
! woman, Bush, affording him assistance,
both in getting rid of wife No. l and in Sc
| curing No. ?. For these services he after
ward sent in a bill, and on Altenberg's re
fusal to pay it, placed the claim in court.
There were some words between them over
this matter, and subsequently Bush brought
suit for SANDER, placing his damages at
$1,000, alleging that Altenberg had said
harsh things about him. Although this suit
is still pending their differences were
thought to have been adjusted, and the two
were on the best of terms when the murder
occurred.

NEW YORK, Aug. 20.
The Senate subcommittee on Labor and
Education resumed its session Tuesday
William q. Moody, of Brooklyn, author of
Land and Labor" was the first witness.
he called attention to the fact that many
foreign capitalists were purchasing vast
tracts of land in the South and West. En-
glish Lords and French Counts were
dominating over territory that was
three times larger than the kingdom
of Great Britain, and by their
system of wholesale farming had
driven American farmers from homesteads
snd into the ranks of wage slavery. Our
railroad despots had more power than the
feudal monarchs OF Europe, and were in
possession of Dos. 900, 900 OF acres-an area
larger than Austria, Italy and Switzerland
combined The wage workers were crowd
ing the cities, and in New York City there
were So 600 people occupying a square mile.
Most of the small farmers were not able to
secure decent competency, as their farms

He said further that the prices of
production were greatly enhanced
by the continually growing increase OF mid
dlemen, who were recruited from the ranks
of those who had no regular occupation, as
they had been driven from their business by
the prevailing system of mechanical labor.
Ii the present system were not abolished,
prices finally would reach such a height
| that the wage laborer would be unable even
! to secure the absolute neceSSarieS of life.

was overridden by men 0 greater capital

The Newport sweIls and dudes who
have taken of late to fox hunting are in
danger of prosecution for cruelty to ami
mails if they do not stop that disgusting
foolishness. The sport is all well enough
in Great Britain, where it is q normal and
healthy survival of barbarism, small waif
from the remote past, but in this country
1t Is an ALLEGATION, silly piece of snob-
berry, resembling the genuine fox hunt as
a boys rocking horse resembles single
fOoter. The authorities of Rhode Island
ought to interfere on general principles.
Whether put upon the ground of cruelty
to animals or indulgence to folly matters
little, only stop it, If the snobs really
want to hunt let them shoulder their guns
and follow the chase in the Rocky noun
tains. Even the. Adirondacks might do,
but for a mob of New York swells in
gorgeous array to tag after one poor little
fox let out of a box Is too disgusting to
be thought of with patience.
