TO whom II May Concern.

Persons who witness an affray, and
who give Information thereof, and re.
ques. that publicity may be given to
the same, should have manliness
enough, when interviewed by a second
party, to adhere to the first version
they gave of the affair, and not deny it
intoto, or be scared iuso giving another
view of the matter, and thus shift the
responsibility of their representations
on those who have no motive in giving
a false coloring to things that i'll no
wise interest them. l shall hereafter
be very chary of accepting for truth
any statement that is Voluntarily made

North Carolina, is confirmed. A gen

reports having seen fifteen of the men
with their shackles still on, roaming

making no effort to get out of the way.
They confirmed the rumor that the

was effected, and also that the entire
squad, save one, who was shot and kill.
ed by guard aroused by the stam-
pede, succeeded in the break for liberty.
AS the reward in North Carolina for

Attorney General Rice of Dakota,

tions, declares that he has thus fur
been unable to discover any evidence
of fraud or land grabbing. lie
estimates the number of claimants at
not less than 1000, representing about
5000 actual settlers. So far as he
can find, there are no spectators
interested in the matter. Nearly
every desirable quarter section is
occupied by men who give evidence
of being bona fide settlers, and to
whom it will be grevious hardship
if they are driven out. AS to the
Indians, Mr.. Rice says there are only
l,l00 OF them, including women and
children, and large tracts are wholly
unoccupied. They have grazing
land sufficient for: 10000 head OF
cattle. These facts are worth the

How to Hang Pictures.

Inregar'l to the hanging of pictures,
few cardinal principles should not
be lost sight of. Pictures are made to
be seen. They should not be hung
so high that one has to stretch ones
neck to see them. A picture hie'thas
worked up in detail should be closer,
to the eye than strong, broad CON-
position, in which all parts of the
compensation arc put in masses.
Family pictures should he confined
to family rooms. The light ON a
picture should come from the same
side as the light in picture. Pictures
on the line Of sight should be hung
dat on the wall; those above the line
of sight may for convenience of in-
spection he tilted sli ghtly forward.
Large Lcavy frames should never be
titled forward directly above sofas or
chairs that are close to the wall. They
always seem dangerous. 1t is not
pleasant to have the consciousness of
a two hundred pound man just over
ones head, and bis whole body swung
out Of the center of gravity. Groups
of pictures arc only effective when
there is harmony Of subject, of color
and of fitness in the framing. OLD
paintings and new ones almost always
injure each other when hung close
together. Few pictures should be
hung in the dining, room, and care
should he taken iii the selection of
