IHE INDIAN ulSpdoSii
of Saturday from the Cheyenne, Agency
says that the aspect is undoubtedly prov
ing more serious from day to day and that
troops sufficient in force to make a COM
plete police patrol will prove the only
means of safety. The Cheyennes have sent
a large number of their best war horses out
West under an apprehension of an attack
from the militia, in which event they
would be a safe distance for raiding. Small
bodies of Indians are slipping away every
day, and it in believed that they are ready
for stampede to the hills in body as
soon as spies, who overrun the agency, are
satisfied that the government means to dis
arm them. 1t has leaked out at the agency
from Indian sources that the Indians them
selves believe that the band which went
West to "Panhandle" has been corraled by
citizens and cowboys, but the authorities
have had no verifcatiOn of the rumOr. 1t
is reported that number of kiOWaS and
Commanches have joined the missing Chey-
ennes. The government has telegraphed
Agent Dyer to find out how many Indians
are off the reservation. This order cannot
be executed without the presence of more
troops to hold them until counted. 1t is
believed that an attempt even to take a
census would precipitate a fight.
A Colorado City, Texas, dispatch of the
same date says: It is rumored here that a
battle has been fought between cowboys and
Indians on the New Mexican rancho of j.
B. Slaughter of this place. Sixty Indians
and sixteen cowboys are reported killed.
There is great excitement here and confir-
matory details are anXiously awaited.
Secretary Endicott to-day ordered three
regiments of cavalry and the Fourth Infant
ry, making a total force of nearly 5000 men,
to proceed at once to the vicinity of Fort
Reno, Indian Territory, from their present
stations in the Departments of Texas and
Platte. This will make force Of about
1000 men in the Territory.
Dispatches from Omaha state that Compa-
nies D, G and X of the Fourth Infantry left
there Friday night, for Kansas City, en- route
to Crossheld, Kansas, to assist in protecting
the Southern border of that State from in
cursion by the Indians. Two cars of ammu-
nition and supplies accompanied them.
Three companies from Sidney, Nebraska,
and four from Fort Russell, near Cheyenne,
will join them. General Hatch has been
ordered to station his regiment, the Ninth
Cavalry, at Oga and guard the old Cheyenne
trail, which it is supposed the Indians will
follow if they attempt to come North

THE BATTLE OF THE BOYNE.

The anniversary of the battle of the Boyne,
at Waterford, Ireland, last Sunday, caused
a large increase in the usual number of
drunken men to be seen on the streets.
Among them were many of the soldiers
belonging to the Welch regiments doing
duty at Waterford. A number of citizens
got into a drunken row with the soldiers,
during which the latter bayonetted to death
one of the former. The commotion attract
ed crowds of men to the scene. When the
civilians realized that one of their number
had been killed they became furious and
fell upon the soldiers with such force that
the latter were compelled to beat hasty
retreat to their barracks. The mob follow
ed them up, but being threatened with
powder and ball if they attempted to force
an entrance to the barracks, they conferred
themselves with smashing the windows
with stones. The rage of the populace was
so great on Monday morning that it was
deemed best to transfer the Welch regiment
to some other place. This was done imme-
diately, and as the soldiers marched from
the barracks to the railway station surround
ed by policemen, the mob followed them
hooting and stoning the soldiers.
Several Parnellites, members of Parlia-
ment, have telegraphed that they will
bring the matter before the Government
and demand an immediate inquiry into the
outrage. 1t is generally believed that the
soldiers began the row.
The name of the civilian killed was Peter
Grant. During the hottest part of the con-
flict soldier attacked and plunged a bayo-
net straight through the mans heart.
Grant fell dead on the spot. This tragedy
infuriated the people and they, fell with
such ferocity upon the troops that the latter
retreated in full flight into the barracks:
o'Fhe barracks building was beseIged all
night by citizens, who, although they were
unable to break into it, mashed every win
dow in the building. The excitement last
ed all night and every soldier met in the
streets was attacked. Some struggling SOL
diers were fearfully handled, being ston-
ed beaten and kicked until unconscious.
Those who escaped mob violence dld 1t Dy
fleeing to the barracks or the police stations
for refuge. Two privates were arrested on
Monday morning on suspicion of being
guilty of Grants murder. A number OF
civilians profess to be able to identify the
soldier who killed Grant. The excitement
in Waterford remains unabated.

full, soft, white neck and jauntily
poised head on a pair OF good straight
shoulders are brought into the more
striking contrast by the rakish cut of

girl, however, looks thinner, scrawnier
and scraggier than ever, and the ugly
daughters Of some Of the Senators and

vantage under the old cut. Fashion

A "Madman's" Legacy.

lv garb of "a mechanic to Richelieu,
Prime minister of France as he was en-
tering his palace; "Sire, | have made a
discovery which shall make rich and
great the nation that shall develop it.
Sire. will you give me an audience?"
Richelieu, constantly im%portuned,
finally ordered the ''madman" i'm
%prisoned. Even in jail he did not de-
sist from declaring his ''delusion,"
which one day attracted the attention
Of a British nobleman, who heard De
Causes story, and developed his dis
covery Of steam powerl
All great discoveries are at first
derided.
Seven years ago a man yet under
middle age, enriched by q business
which covered the continent, found
himself suddenly stricken down. When
his physician said recovery vas impos-
sible, he used a new discovery which
like all advances in science, had been
opposed bitterly by the schoolmen.
Nevertheless. it cured him, sand out OF
gratitude therefore he consecrated n
part of his wealth to the spreading OF
its merits before the world. Such in
brief is the history Of Warmers safe
cure, which has won, according to The
testimony of eminent persons. the mos
deserved reputation ever accorded to
any known compound. and which il

approval of the most conservative,
practitioners. It's fame now belts tn,

and story teller has arrived at Buenos
Ayres, and has written a letter to a

sojourning for two days in the country
to which ho is accredited as Minister,
he discovered that the government of
that country was 'the most extrava-
giant on EARTH" and FASTENED to make
this fact known in North America. He
also learned how 70 make his friends
rich down there, or at least he tells his
Indiana friends that he has done SO.
Notwithstanding bis discovery, he is
forced 10 make known his wants by
signs. ''My great trouble" he says,

markable discoveries in Buenos Ayres
and the nature of his correspondence
Indicate that he would have opened a

The money value OF a wife's services

to which she is legally entitled from
her husband has inst had a curious IL

a Rhode Island regiment. But after
the lapse of years tho first husband re-
appeared. and upon learning the state
OF things married another woman.
Grips, a few months ago, turned his
wife out of doors, refused to support
her, and applied for a divorce, which
the Judge granted, as the marriage
was illegal. The woman was destitute.

Her heels flew up through the atmosphere
And through the leaves Of a maple tree
