THE DUTY OF coLoRED VOTERS.

The indianapolis Leader has the following
article addressed to colored voters;
Every good Republican who has the interest
of his country at heart has decided what will be
his course on the 4th of November next. First,
he will vote for Blaine and Logan to fill the first
place in the gift of the people. Not So much be-
cause of their personal fitness as for the fact
that they stand for those principles the promul-
cation of which in the past saved from destruc
ton orr government, of the people, by the PEG
Pile, for the people. Secondly, he will vote for
Major Calkins against Colonel Gray the
Democratic candidate for Governor, because in
tine election of Calkins which will surely take
place, he will be assured of a continuance of that
policy of administration that within its purview
knows no citizen by the color of his
skin And, aside from these general
issues, the voters of Marion county will
be called upon 10 assist IN the election of State
Legislature, whose duty it will be i'll the near
future to elect United States senator. Should
the people of Indiana elect II Democratic Legis-
lature, the senator who would succeed Dan

A Romantic Scene.


One Of the most startling and romantic
features Of border life occurred on We'd
nesday, on the Wild Horse Prarie.
thirty miles north OF Los Angeles, when
q band OF wild horses, under the lead Of
a noble sorrel stallion came galloping
over the plain to reconnoitre a company
of surveyors engaged in making survey
OF the tract. The band dashed towards
Capt Kelleher and his party of surveyors
till within about 500 feet, when the
leader halted in a grandly proud and de-
fiant manner. with neck curved. nostrils
distended, ears erect aud tail on dress
parade, and all the band ranged them
selves ON each side of him like squad
of cavalry in battle charge. After sur
veying the scene for few moments the
leader galloped proudly away, followed
by the band in the most dignitied and
graceful manner. The scene was most
romantic, and the picture of the lordly
leader, with his most obedient subjects
In their feet and graceful motions, was
worthy OF an artists pencil.
There Is another band of these wild
horses on the same prairie, under the
leadership of dark mahogany bay
stallion, with black name. tail and
knees. In this band are two white
horses, while the rest are bay and sorrel
mainly. Few people are aware that at
the northern base of the Sierra Madre,
only thirty miles from this city, wild
horses roam in their native beauty and
crop the iich grasses that grow ON Wild
Horse Prarie, between Rock Creek and
the s. p. r. r., at Alpine station. Yet
such is the fact, and their sleek appear
ance and graceful motions are the ad.
miration Of all beholders.

An Amateur Detective.

The spectacle of a neatly attired
Young man, wearing on the lapel OF
his coat brass shield marksd ''P. o.
IT," attracted the attention of report
or while passing through StuYvesant
square last week. Presently mob of
young gamins surrounded the park rail
ings and commenced TO boot vigorously
at the individual, who made a deter
mined rush at them and chased them up
Second avenue for several blocks. This
performance was repeated several times,
until at last the appearance of the park
policeman put an end to further hostili-
ties, After shaking his fist tragically at
his tormenters, the young man again
entered the park and resumed his occu-
patton of picking up pieces of paper
from the paths.
"Who is he?n observed the park po-
liceman, in reply to the reporters ques-
ton. ''Well, he's what | should call
the terrible example, of detectiveism.
He lives with his mother and brother
down in East Sixteenth street. At an
early age he became imbued with the
idea that he was cut out for a great de-
tective, and has become monomaniac
on the subject. He has haunted this
park now for about nine years, and has
never missed day from his imaginary
post of duty. Some one has given him
an old junk badge or something of the
kind, and lie imagines himself full
fledged police detective. He has occa-
sionaly caused great trouble by threat
ening to run in strangers whom he
saw in the park. The people in this
vicinity, however, all know him and
humor his ways, as in fact he is per-
fectly harmless

When Hancock was stationed in this
city in 1861, as Quartermaster of the
Southern District of California, he was
an athlete of no small pretentiOns.
Among the animals used for transpOrta-
ton over which he had charge were
number of camels, some of which were
the possessors of vicious temperS. One,
a large buck, was continual source Of
trouble, and he generally made it lively
for the unlucky individual who had oc-
casion to 20 within the inclosure in
which he was confined. On one occa-
sion Hancock went into the corral on
some matter of business, but as the old
camel saw him he started on the dead
run for his unlucky victim, and soon q
Greco-Roman wrestling match of the
most approved style was taking place.
The hero of Gettysburg, with haven't
got-long-to-liye expression on his face,
was first thrown into the air, his heels
pointing straight toward the heavens,
and the next moment hurled with irresis-
tible force to the earth. Several rounds
were fought without Hancock losing his
grip, but the camel was just getting into
the right trim for an all-day fight, and,
being within q few feet of the fence,
| Hancock watched his opportunity, and
| suddenly released his hold and started
for the house. How he got over the
ten-fOot fence has never been satisfacto-
| rily settled, as Hancock was always reti-
cent on the subject. ARgeieS Times.
