The surrender Of Chisf TosauA

@he SuFrehusE u inner Joseph
Lieut.. G. e. s. Wood contributes q
paper to the May Century on "Chief Jo-
seph, the Nez Perce," and his battles
with Gen. Towards troops, the surren-
der being described as follows: "Old
Captain John brought this reply land
his lips quivered and his eyes filed with
tears as he delivered the words of his
chief:
Tell Gen. Howard I know his
heart. What he told me before-I have
t in my heart. L am tired of fighting.
Our chiefs are killed. Looking-glass
is dead. Too-hul-hul-suit is dead.
The old men are al dead. 1t is the
young men, now, who say Eyes" or
mo" THAT is vote in council.
He who led on the young
men TJoseph's brother, Ollicutl
is dead. 1t is cold, and we have no
blankets. The it'll children are freez-
ing to death. My people-some of
them-have run away to the hills, and
have no blankets, no food. No one
knows where they ~are-perhaps freez-
ing to death. l want to have time to
look to my children, and to see how
many of them L can find; maybe l shall
find them among the dead. Hear me,
my chiefs; my heart is sick and sad.
From where the sun now stands L will
fight no more foreverp
at was nearly sunset when Joseph
came to deliver himself up. He rode
from his camp in the little hollow. His
hands were clasped over the pommel OF
the saddle, and his rifle lay across his
knees; his head was bowed down.
Pressing around him walked five OF his
warriors their faces were upturned and
earnest as they murmured to him; but
he looked neither to the right nor to the
left. vet seemed to listen i~ntently. So
the little group came slowly up the hill
to where Gen. Howard, with his aide
de-camp, and Gen. Miles waited to re-
ceive the surrender. As he neared
them, Joseph sat erect in the saddle,
then gracefully and with dignity he
swung himself down from his horse, and
with an impulsive gesture threw his
arm to its full length, and offered his
rifle to Gen. Howard. The latter
motioned him toward Gen. Miles, who
received the token of submission.
''Those present shook hands with Jo-
seph, whose worn and anxious face
lighted with a sad smile rs silently he
took each offered hand. Then, turning
away, he walked to the tent provided
for him.
"His scalp-lock was tied with otter
fur. The rest of his hair hung in a thick
plat on each side of his head. He wore
buckskin leggings and a gray wooden
shawl, through which were the marks
of four or five bullets received in the
last conflict. His forehead and wrist
were also scratched by bullets. :
"Joseph at this time must have been
about thirty-seven or thirty-eight year
I old. He is tall, straight, a~ndhandsome,
with q mouth not unlike that of NapO-
, leon I. He was, in council, at first
? probably not so influential as White
: Bird and the group of chiefs that sus-
tanned him, but from first to last he was
! prominently their war chief Such
was the testimony of his followers after
y his surrender, and such seems to be the
evidence of the campaign itself"

JIM MONROE is happy. Ore was
struck in the Golconda the other day
that is way up. An incline was run
short time ago to the depth of ff-
teen feet on twentysix inch vein of
Idecomposed ore that will run high.
There is no hosting to do. The in
cline has such slight inclination to
perpendicular that wheelbarrow can
be run up it with an ordinary exer-
ton of muscle. Heretofore work OF
the Golconda has been confined to o.
near the surface, the ledge lying al
most fat, but the deeper they go witt
! the incline the more dip the ledg
shows.

with tin is handled tenderIy. Our
advice is, if you're not flush, keep out
Of the clutches Of law if you can. 1t
will give you the hardest knots, in the
majority of cases, for the unpardona-
BILE crime(D Of poverty. When we hear
man say that law is twin sister OF
Justice, it makes us sick at the stom-
ach. Justice makes herself mighty
scarce when law puts in an appear
ance. We are sick and Disguised at
seeing moneyless men punished for
their poverty. The natural results
are hard enough without having to GO
through legal form Of punishment.
n Since the above was put in type
, we learn that Mr.. Osborn has giver
the required bonds. But this doe
!. mot make our remarks any the les
n fitting. for it is a fact that men hav
n been jailed, and not unfrequently, i
n every county, we will venture, IN eS
IS ery State and Territory Of the Unio
l. to await action of grand juries, an
q were then fined or "sent up" for I'll
IS offense with which they were chars
" ed, and were therefore ground twl'

d. then for crime. If, after sentence
IN the law would settle with the prlso

ok be found; but such is not the case.

Turner Han Concert.

The sixth series of Sunday evening con-
certs, at Turner hall, will commence next
Sunday evening, Oct. 10. The orchestra is
under the personal direction of Mr. George
Seibert Mr.. Seibert is keenly alive to the
requirements of the public, and is continu-
ally striving to meet them by presenting
such an orchestra and such grade of music
as viii be acceptable and within the reach of
the instruments that the business of the city
viii sustain. Musicians cannot live on
wind, and their wives and children have
to be clothed the same as
those of other men. All OF which
costs money To get this money the orehes-
ira must have business To say that ST.
Paul ought to have and must have an orches-
ira OF sixty men when there is not business
enough to support more than twenty-five is
to say we will ruin and bankrupt instrument
tai music in St. Paul. If this city cannot
give an orchestra Of more than twentv-fve
men a support she must be satisfied with that
number till she can do better. Again, a
small orchestra is limited as to the music
it can handle. 1t cannot present the
music that sixty performers can
ana is compelled 20 limit iteelf 10 the selec-
tons that are within the scope OF the num-
Der Of instruments employed. The director
who would attempt music that is out OF the
reach of the instruments under his direction
would demonstrate his iucompeteaey. Il IS
largely, and almost wholly owing TO Mr.
Seibert's level head, good Judgment and
abuudan. patience and industry that We
have as good an orchestrS as We have. He is
gradually introducing new musi-
clans and new instruments. Six
ysars ago be commenced these concerts with
ten musicians. At the next concert be will
present an orchestra Of Twenty-Five This
demon strStes what he has accomplished. and
gives evidence Of further improvement in
the future. The following is list OF the
instruments: Three first vio!ins, three sec
