HOasE.THIEyEs HANGED.
The People of the Indian Territory De-
termined 20 Clean Them ont

GAINESVILLE TEX, June 25.-In-
formation has reached here of another
hanging of horse-thieves in Indian Terri
tory, they being part of the same gang
with those that were hanged about two
weeks ago. Some officers from Burling.
ton, with posse of citizens and officers
from Indian Territory, determined to rid
themselves of these horse thieves, whose
depredations have been more daring
this spring and summer than ever before
When three Of them were overtaken and
hanged few days ago, the citizens de-
telmined not to stop until the work was
completed. The officers and posse OF cit
iztns continued on the trail aud overlook
eight more of the gang on Washita river
all OF whom were hung. Continuing their
selrch the officers found four more OF
the gang on Mud creek, who suf-
fe:ed the same fate. The names of the
men hanged are not given The above
statements are corroborated by Charles
E1sall who has just returned from TRIP
of several weeks duration in Indian Ter
ritory. The scene of the hanging is q
long distance from here, so that the
names of the thieves and the particulars
of the chase and the final tragic outcome
can only be had from the officers, whe
are now believed to be on their return
They will probably cross the Colorado
river and come into Texas tomorrow, a
some point near here.

DRY in Cornell University.
New York Tribune: When the tablet
erected to commemorate the life and ser
vices OF Louis Agassiz was unveiled at
Cornell University on Wednesday, the
following characteristics letter from Oil
yer Wendell Holmes was among the let
rers of distinguished men who wrote TO
express their regret at not being able to
be present. The letter has not before
been published:
BosroS, June Q, 1885.
My DEAR SRI regret that it will not
be in my power TO visit Ithaca and be
present at the unwilling Of the tablet in
memory of Louis Agsssiz. Ny relations
with the illustrous professor were of long
standing and always most cordial and to
me delightful. 1t would be a great pleeE-
ure to me if / could be with the friends
who are to do honor to his memory. We
have borrowed distinguished men from
the old world before his day France Lent
ns Lafayette. Germany spared Us Steuben
to lead and 10 discipline our armies. Swift
zeriand had already sent Us Albert Gala
tin, the counsellor of Washington, the
statesman identified with the history OF
the government for more than half a cen
fury. He was still living when his fellow
countrymaD, Agassiz, reached cur shore
to blend his life with our American civil
| iz4tion as unreservedly as did the great
! tinancier, diplomatist and scholar who
had preceded him
The special work of Agass;z was to es-
| tablish the scientific independence of his
adopted country. The dream Of his am
bition was to make the favored centers oi
| the New World strong enough in their at
! fractions TO draw students from the Older
schools OF Europe. No pent-up Utica
could limit his aspirations. No, not even
your wide-Inargiued and wide-minde
/ Ithaca could have filled the large measure
OF his magnificent ideals.

This enthusiasm spread among all with

Mount MCGREGoR, N. Y, June 25.-
At 10 o'clock last evening, when DIR.
Shrady strolled down to the Grant cot
tage, where he was guest for the night,
he found Gen. Grant doing. The gen
eral reused up, however, when the doc
tor entered and spoke to him about GER
tain articles of diet, explaining that he
did so then lest he should forget TO men
ton it before the doctor left. At IL
o'clock the general was sleeping. He
continued to sleep, with slight breaks,
until o'clock this morning, when DR..
Shrady attended him. The patient was
coughing to clear his throat. He was re-
Geved at once by saline solution with
carbolic acid, after which cocoaine was
applied, and the general again went to
sleep. At Z o'clock he was aroused. DIR.
Shrady was up at O. clock, and as he en-
tered the sick-room, hat and cane in
hand, the general glanced up and asked !:
Are you up already for the day, doc
tor?' YES, and | am going out to en-
JOY the air aud scenery" was the answer.
| am glad You do, but there are two or
three hours sleep yet This morning for
me, added u general IS he settled back
in the pillows which were being beaten
up afresh. When the physician entered
at 9 o'clock it was believed that the pa
tient had slept eight hours since retiring
twelve hours before.
At Q o'clock the general was put to
bed, Drs. Douglas and Shrady being pres
ent. Six minims of morphia were given.
DIR. Shrady thought the mucous secre
lions had decreased in twenty four hours
There had been very little coughing
during the evening. The voice was the
same as on Wednesday night, and the
doctors thought, at 10 o'clock, that
the general would pass a quiet night,
but at that hour messenger came from
the cottage to the hotel and summoned
both Drs. Douglas and Shrady. The
patient himself had sent for them quite
hurriedly. The physicians repaired to
the cottage, but DR.. Douglas re-
turned in ten minutes to the no.
tel, where he lodges tonight, DR..
Shrady, soon after, retiring at the
cottage On his return to the hotel
Dr. Douglas said the summons implied
nothing of moment. The general had
desired Dr. Douglas to clear the passages
of his head This was Gone speedily,
and the doctor said the general would,
without doubt, pass as quiet a night as
any since coming here. At midnight all
was quiet.
