THE BLOODY SHIRT
The Sonth Keeps IL to the Fore and
Will Not Bury IL.

indianapolis Journal (Rep)
The bloody shirt and all the at
tendant recriminations should be
laid away forever. 1t should have
been buried deep at Appotamax,
when the last great sacrifice had
been made for the Union. 1t should
have been buried there while the ma
ton was yet in tears over its beloved
dead. 1t should have been buried
before the bull-whip cut the flesh of
ex-slaves in Louisiana because they
dared exercise the rights conferred
upon them. 1t should have been
buried before the Georgia "red-shirt-
ersn and South Carolina "white-lin-
ers" went on their nightly raids, and
left trail of blood and spread ter
ror everywhere among the defence
less, timid blacks. 1t should have
been buried before the Chisholm
massacre, wheI father and daughter
were shot because the one dared ex-
ercise his right as a freeman. 1t
should have been buried before the
slaughter of Republicans at Cousin
alta and Ellenton. 1t should have
been buried before Print Matthews
was assasinated for daring to vote
in an open election after being warn
ed not to do so. l. should have been
buried before his slayer was elected
Sheriff IN honor of his services in
behalf of the South. 1t should nave
been buried before Democratic ex-
rebels of Virginia murdered a score
or more of colored men at Danville,
and threatened further violence in
event the state was not carried in
common with the other Southern
States. 1t should have been buried
before the post-bellum solid South
was murderously conceived and
most murderously secured. II
should have been buried before a
party came into power that had nc
favors for the South except for men
!! who were the sworn enemies of the
Union during the war.

Train Robbers.

KANSAS CRY, Mo-, Sept. 3.-The
passenger train due here at $50 last
evening was robbed by four men at
Blue Springs. Mo-, The robbers af-
ter going through one car aud de-
manding the valuables of the pas
sengers suddenly took fright and or.
dered the brakeman to pull the bell
rope jumped off and disappeared in
the darkness. They made no at
tempt to take any watches or jewel
ry, contenting themselves with tax
ing purses and whatsoever was han
ded out to them.
The booty secured amounted to
only about $50 in money. Nothing
else was taken. The robbers are
described as appearing awkward and
nervous and evidently unused to
such work. They were roughly dres-
sed and had the appearance OF farm
hands. Each wore small black
mask. ]. H. Andrews, q business
man of this city, who was on the
platform of the smoker, relates that
when the men approached the car
he thought they were tramps. They
boarded the second car as the train
was pulling out from the depot and
a moment later he started through
for the rear of the train. AT the rear
door of the smoker he was met by a
guard, who pointed revolver at
him and called upon him to stand
still. He obeyed and from the door
way watched the proceedings in the
other car. The whole transaction,
he thought, did not occupy five
minutes before the robbers comman-
a brakeman to pull the bell-rope and
stop the train.

just Whai IL Cost.

New York Sept. 3.-The objec-
ton which Undertaken Merritt has
made so far to giving to the public
the items of his bill for attending
the Grant funeral was that it would
be unprofessional. 1t was sugges-
ted that, as the public was asked
through the War Department to pay
the bill, there could be no harm in
telling the public what it would
haze to put up.
"That seems to be reasonable,
said Mr.. Merit, "The exact figures
are s14,16275. That sum includes
everything that | did or furnished
both at Mount McGregor and in this
city. 1t is the sum total that | am
to receive. The largest item was So
600 for carriages. l gave the bill to
Colonel Perry. He went over it
carefully, and checked off each item.
He said he was very well satisfied
with it. In fact, we did not change
a cent more than we would have
charged any body for the same ser.
vice.

He Stole Gyps,e's Daughter.

New HANEN, Sept. There was
great excitement yesterday afternoon
among the Gypsies camped at Yale
vile. Conn, upon discovering that
the daughter of "Prince" William
was missing. A tall, dark-eyed
young man from this city, about 25
years old, has been repeatedly seen
about their camp and it is conject-
ured that he had been meeting the
fair gypsey clandestinely and it is
believed that he is now.her husband
She is very beautiful and only six.
teen years old. Her father. Prince
William, is the wealthiest gypsey in
the country. He is an Enelishman
by birth and is the sharpest horse
trader in New England, and lives in
a wagon that is gorgeously decorated
and valued at over 81, 200. He
owns farms in Canada, Massachu-
sets and this state, and runs a large
sale stable in Boston.
His missing daughter was the
pride of all the gypsies in New
England. Her father is in terrible
state over her disappearance, and
detectives have been engaged to look
her up. Search is being made in
this city for the young man who is
supposed to have eloped with her,
but rs yet his name or whereabouts
has not been ascertained.
