GIDEON,S BAND.
A Now Idea in the Temperance
 Work.

"Ofk.
 PORTLAND, Me-, April 13-In order to re- tain the attendance at his gospel temperance mission of those who are attracted by Safva- tion army methods Rev. s. F. Pearson has introduced novel method of worship. On the platform are seated upward of twenty five people, men on one side, women on the other. Each nah is armed with toy tin trumpet painted in several colors. Each woman has small tin pitcher with cover Each pitcher contains a handful of beans MT. Pearson himself manages large rattle of the kind used by policemen in some cities. A gospel hymn is sung to organ and cornet accompaniment and in the chorus as much noise as possible is made with instruments. This erganiza- ton is called f'Gideon's band" The origin of the idea may be found in Judges vii, 16: 'sAnd he (Gideon) divided three hundred men into three companies and he put 8 trumpet in every mans hand with empty pitchers and lamps within the pitchers. '' Succeeding verses give an account of Glide on's stratagem by which he put to flight a host of Medianitcs. It is said that this idea will be organized for work elsewhere and l may even obtain the dignity of national organization.

WAR TO THE HITTER END.
R1el,s Half Breeds Will Settle Their Claims at the Point of the BaYonet.

Riel's Half Breeds Will Settle Their
 Claims at the Point of the Bayonet.
 OTTAWA April 13.-Hon. Royal, M. F., emissary of the Dominion government, who was despatched by Sir John A. Macdonald eight days ago to-day to the Northwest to see if with the assistance of Archbishop Tache a settlement could not be effected with Riel and hostilities suspended, returned from Winnipeg to-day. Royal found that the gov ernment has delayed too long the settlement of the half-breed claims, which Archbishop Tache states can now only be adjusted at the point of the bayonet. The bishop feels keenly the manner in which he has been treated by Sir John. Royals mission has proved futile and the matter will now have to be fought out to the bitter end. Senator Alexander to-day attacked the government in the Senate for criminal neglect in putting off the settlement of the half breed claims, which action has turned the whole North west country into state of rebellion. He pointed out where the government had re- peatedly been warned by both the half breeds and other dissatisfied settlers as well as Bishop Tache as to what would certainly follow if it did not attempt to effect a settle ment

The E,ectfoo TroubIe. at chicago.

CHICAGO, April 13.-The election excite ment has subs@ed largely owing to the fact that the newspapers which were loudest in the formation of committees of vigilantes have been induced by representatives of prominent business to be silent to-day. This afternoon William J. O'Brien, one of the men alleged to be implicated in the robbery of the Third ward ballot box, was captured by city detectives and lodged in the Chicago avenue station. The arrest is considered an important one.

COUGH PRESENTS HIS CASE.
Hut Secretary Lamar Does Not Accept
 His Argument.

His Argument.
 WASHINGTON, April 13.-Captain Couch, accompanied by e1-Congressman Clarke of Kansas, called at the Interior department to- day and had an interview with the Secretary. Captain Couch presented the case of the Oklahoma boomers at length. He detailed how the lands had been leased by Indians to foreign corporations, read the law in regard to the Indians rights on the subject and con- tended that if the Indians by treaty or otherwise ever possessed any title to the lands they had forfeited it. Secretary Lamar listened ettentively to the end and then said he was satisfied the land in ques- ton was part of the Indian territory set aside by Congress for the of the Indians; that this right could only be taken away by the same power that conferred it, and that in the ab -ence of legislation on the subject with the original law still in existence it was his duty to enforce them. This he intended to do and must therefore deny the request of Captain Couch and his followers to enter the lands with his appreciation.

| Exciting Scene on the Suspension
 Bridge at Niagara.
 BUFFALO, April 13.-John, Waugh, ex- mayor of Niagara falls, Ont, who has been | failing in health of late, walked out on the railway suspension bridge from that place l yesterday afternoon, climbed over the railing and hung from one of the iron girders under | heath the bridge by both hands, one hundred | and sixty feet above the rocks near the | waters edge. Some friends saw him climb over and ran out on the bridge expecting to see his body dashed to pieces on the rocks; but the unfortunate man repented his rash act and held on for life to the iron girders men named Kerr, Howe and Gillespie ran to his aid, and by leaning over the side of the bridge, to the danger of their own lives, res cued Waugh from his perilous position. MT. Waugh has for some time past shown signs of temporary insanity, caused by sickness from over-exertion in political life.

They were very close together and literally packed with passengers; many Of them being mer- chants and brokers. The first train pulled up at Hanover Square station, and signalled the next. That one also stopped and sig nailed the following train, but the latter was only fifteen feet away and could not be brought to a stop. The engine crashed into the rear car, tearing the wood work to pieces. The steam pipes burst, creating the widest excitement among the passengers. Some of them climbed out of windows and descended to the street below Women tainted and the utmost confusion prevailed. The stree. was filled with debris. Fireman Charles Mccarthy was found in the engine held fast by the wreck. Both of his legs were broken and he was fatally injured internally. relief train soon and took the passengers of. Many were first re- ported severely injured, but their hurts were probably exaggerated. John D. Messher, the engineer of the last train, was arrested.
