Or course tho democratic editors are dis
gusted when any reference is made to the
rotten record of their party. So complains
an old offender before the police court. They
want to be judged by their promises for the
future, and not by their performances in the
past-and yet the truth of history compels an
occasional reference to Buchanan, tho last
democratic president.

The REPUBLICAN yesterday morning con-
tanned q very interesting interview with Gen.
Whitaker, giving the history of his capture of
the late Maj. Harry Gilmor At tho close of
the interview Gen, Whitaker expressed do
whom he also captured at the time. Yesterday
afternoon he received telegram from Hoffman
Gilmor, of Baltimore, stating that he was the
person, and expressing desire for meeting.
This shows what valuable organ of commu-
nication The NATIONAL REPUBLICAN is.
But ten hours after its publication the dis
patch was sent. As newspaper and adver-
tising medium it is superior to any paper in
this section of the United States.

OUR morning contemporary appears to have
a chronic objection to any reference by repub-
licans to the past record of the democratic
party. 1t snarls at an allusion in these col
umns to the latest democratic president and
his solemn declaration that the Union could
only continue to exist by the leave of its enc
mics. How can we discuss any more recent
democratic president than James Buchanan? I?

KacIxce Kanisee Koodcloo.

There is rule at the Carlisle Indian school
which forbids the children to talk in any but
the English language, and sometimes the little
girls find it very hard to remember the restric-
tion. When the visitors who went from WASH
ington the other day were "doinG" the in
stitution, Mrs. Hawley was struck with the
bright appearance of little girl of 10 years,
who repeated the following verses:
AS walked out one day
saw In q tree
A little bird sitting
And singing Pawnee.
said, little bird,
You are breaking the rule.
We speak only English
At Carlisle school,"
But he sang very loud,
Kan Ike kan dc doo,"
And then to II added
.. "Kackee kankec koodeloo.
This is what he said,
81 am not afraid"
And then to II added,
"True, am not afraid"
But was afraid,
And ran from the tree
Lest ]. too, be tempted
To speak in Pawnee.
Thelittle Indian girl said her name was Susie
Martinez. and that she was little Indian from
the Delawares. She made a copy of the verses
in her own handwriting for Mrs. Hawley.

A PECULIAR CASE.
Little Cora stephenson Taken From inc
Custody OF Miss olivia spang ON
Habcas Corpus and Afterwards
Rcturncd 10 Her Old Home.

A peculiar habeas corpus case oc-
Cured in the county court YESTERDAY.
For some time past MISS ollNla
Spang has attracted the attention Oh
her neighbors in the western part OF
the city by her treatment OF a llt'le
girl, twelve years old, named Cora
Stephenson, who had been lett IN her
charge by the child's father. who Is
now In Mexico. The sympathy oi the
neiphbors was so aroused that writ
OF habeas corpus was sued out IN the
county court, commanding Miss
Spang to bring the girl into court and
show why she was keeping her in Gus
tody.
Yesterday morning, in obedience I"
the writ, the child was brought into
court and delivered over to Judge
Beckham, who placed her in the
home of MI. G.. III. Daniel. Cora cried
bitterly at being separated from her
guardian. and said that all the punish
ment she had received was deserved,
and that she could never be satisfied
away from here. Cora is a phenome-
nally bright child and her intelligent
answers and evasions We're the admit
ration of all who heard her. She was
placed in her new home under her Vio-
lent protests ut the proceeding.
About o'clock Cora came into the
court house, hunted up Judge Beck
ham and begged to be allowed to re-
turn TO her guardian. Judge Beckham
talked long and earnestly to her and
even argued the case to try to convince
her that it would probably be better
for her to remain where she was fer II
short time.
Cora listened calmly and rs earn
estly pleaded her own cause. SO eff
fective was her childish cloquence that
the Judge finally consented for her to
return to her old home, which she
gladly did ut once. Some time after
this Miss Spang came to the court
house in company with Cora and
asked the judge if it was really true
that her charge was allowed to come
home. The judge said that he would
consent if SHE would promise to treat
the child kindly, and she and Cora left
seemingly very happy at the termina-
ton of their troubles. 1t is to be
hoped they will get along without fur
ther trouble. The court will interfere
in the case of further complaints.
The little girl is very intelligent and
her remarkable argument in her own
defense was the subject of much talk
in and about the court house yesterday
afternoon.

THIRD AND FOURTH WARDS

The trains Were all late last night.
A company of the Sixteenth United
States infantry passed through here
last night, going west, 10 replenish
the military posts in that section.
There were over fifty soldiers in charge
of Il corporal, and seven OF them wan
dereh Off from the rest and could not
he found when the train came. Officer
Richmond found two of them Just be-
fore the train started, but the other
five are still in the city. 1t is thought
they wandered Off while waiting for
the train without any intention of de-
sorting the company.
4 prominent professional gentleman
and several of his friends had good
deal of fun ut the expense of a huge
German in street ear last night. The
German weighed over 800 pounds and
stood SIX feet four in his shoes. When
he sat down one of the friends made a
desperate effort to get from under and
barely succeeded in doing so, Had he
been caught it would have taken the
whole grand lodge of knights and
Ladies of Honor to have eXtricated
him.
The Union depot is to have some
light; now can't the street cars run all
night? Then we would be happy.
