San ANTONIO, Tx, Nov. ls.-Ad-
ditional details regarding the indian
massacre a,e as follows
From Pena Colorado; J p. Wilson
brought word TO the camp that In
dams had crossed the Rio Grapde aud
had killed family camped nfteen
miles from the river Mr.. Wilson r.
interested ina cattle range aud was
engaged with herd when he was met
by acourier, They both returned To the
post with the news. Joseph Petty and
his wife were killed aud Il ~ supposed
that their two children met with al like
fate. The camp had been attacked at
night, The tent was torn down and
every thing destroyed. The bodies of
the children were not found, but the
discOverer aid not remain on tho spot
long enough to make h complete
search, f, d. Brough, II well-known
prospector and miner, was camped
adjoining the Petty family.
He has not been seen
and is supposed to have been MUIR
dercd by the same band OF Indiana.
This place Ii located ON the cattle
range OF Messrs. Wilson d Reid, whose
line riders found the trail Of the In
dians leading towards Mexico. They
had large drove OF horses with them.
A detachment OF troops is now out on
the trail. The Indians are
said to be OF the Apache
tribe. THIS valley has been
particularly unfortunate during the
past few months, nearly all the ranch
ers having lost many OF their horses
aud stock. The ChiOco mountains
afford protection for prowling Indians
aud are a safe retreat for hursv thieves.
Gen. Stanley has also ordered out u
large scouting party from Fort Davis.
He IL OF the belief that the Indians
are portion OF the Apaches
or Meacalleros which were operated
against and scattered by Ger. Crook.
They were driven into Mexico and he
thinks that they crossed tho Rio
Grande and after committing the
massacre recrosstd. Since the expira-
ton OF the treaty between the United
States and Mexico by which the
troops OF both republics could
cross the Rio GrAnde ina
pursuit. OF indiana, the indiana
are taking advantage Of IL. Only last
week thralctlde OF san Carlos, Mex,
applied to the commanding general
here 10 cross the Rio Grande after
maraudIng Indians, and permission
had TO be refused because Of the lapse
Of the treaty. The general, however,
Informed the Alcalde that whenever
the United states troops were notified
that Indians had crossed over TO this
side scouting parties would be sent out
Immediately after them.
Later tel, < ANS received ut military
headquarlefa here fully conirm the
accounts OF the Indian massacre near
/ z ma Colorado. The dead bodies OF
. the two murdered little children have
, been found lying In the brush near
their dead parents The mining engi-
neer IL still missing. This IL one OF
the most horrible Indian outrages
which has Mapped on our border for
many years Forty head OF horses
were driven over the river Ia this raid.

4 Wonderful Bell.

The temples at kroto, japan, says cor
respondent of the Philadelphia Press, are
mainly of interest on account of their great
bell, which swings in monster wooden
belfrv half way up the hillside, back Of the
buildings proper. This bell is huge bronze
cup with nearly perpendicular sides and a
fiat crown, and like all other Japanese bells,
is sounded by means Of huge beam kept
in place BY ropes, but, when occasion re-
quires, brought against the rim OF the bell
with great force. It requires twelve coolies
to manipulate this beam. Formerly it was
rung only once year, but now it may be
heard two or three times every month. It
is one Of the greatest wonders in Japan II
is IS feet higbs9H inches thick, 9 feet in
diameter, and weighs nearly ~ tons. 1t
was cast in monster mould in the year
;sl(y. AS the bell was cast with the rim
up, the gold entering into its composition
computed to be about 800 ponnds-sunk
to the crown. It has magnificent tone,
and when struck by the open palm the VI
brations may be heard at distance of one
hundred yards.

the debaterS brought against him. Awaiting

u his friends begged the great orator to
lake up the cudgels in behalf of the tobac-
20 users, which he consented to do, more
in a Joke than for any serious reason. Tha:
