FRESCOED WOMEN.

1t is relief to zee q woman, be

the woman whose face was powder
ed and rouged, whose lips were
painted and eyebrows stenciled,
was viewed with social suspicion
and mentally placed where she no
doubt properly belonged. It is
different now, very different. Par
isian art certainly beauties the
face, but the 0rtifcialty is detected
simply because it is too beautiful
to be natural. tits argued that the
dis sipations of fashionable life, the

more's the pity, and one can only
conjecture what manner of faces
must be hid behind the masks seen

coed women and from certain

Gen. Sherman and Gen. Fry are

of Grant, rs expressed last Septem-
Der In the December number OF
The North American Review Gen.
Fry quoted Gen. Sherman as saying
Had G. +. Smith lived Grant would
have disappeared to history after
Donelson." Gen. Sherman denied
point blank that he ever used the
words ascribcd to him. And now
comes Fry and produces a letter
written by Sherman, in which he
used the words in dispute. Old Te-
cumseh's only defense is that his

DAIRYING IN WISCONSIN.

There were over five hundred
representatives present at the TWEEN
tieth annual convention of the Wis.,
consin Dairymen's association, held
at Richland Center last week.
Wisconsin is now the leading dairy
state of the west, and Wisconsin but
ter and cheese demand the highest
market price. In recent article on
"Dairying in Wisconsin," The Mil
waukee Evening Wisconsin says:
"The best Wisconsin cheese sells on the New
York market and in England at price equal to
that obtained for the leading brand of the state
oil New York. This was not the case few years
since, for the reputation of Wisconsin butter
and cheese then poor. 1t is only of late years
that that reputation has been placed at high
point. For some time while il was being made,
the best Wisconsin goods would bring deserved
price only when stamped with the name Of some
New York factory. Now however, Wisconsin
butter and cheese are sold on their merits,
and some Wisconsin factories are as well and
fayorably known in the Eastern and British
markets as the leading ones of the state OF New
York.
Dairying is not as profitable anywhere as it has
been but the same is true of all branches OF
farm production at present, although the abnor-
NAL condition will not continue. Many who
have deserted this mode Of farming are return
ing to it, convinced that no other is SO reliable
and profitable in the long run. This is the fact,
for while grain growing improYerishes land,
dairying constantly enriches it, and along
renders possible the system OF mixed husbandry
which is the sure reliance of the iarm.'

Friday, February 5, 1856.

Hon. E. B. Washburne comes out
in manly letter to The Chicago
Tribune, and defends the course of
Commissioner Sparks. Mr.. Sparks
is doing grand work in reversing
the order of things in the general
land office, and caring for the inter
ests Of the government and actual,
bona flde settlers, instead of the
interests of land grabbers and spec
ulators. And in coming to his sup
port Mr.. Washburne not only aids
Mr.. Sparks and the cause of good
government, but he thereby adds
greatly to his own well-earned rep
reputation for honesty and out
spoken manliness. Long before the
land office passed into the hands of
Mr.. SparGs, we heard good lawyers
express the opinion that if ever an
honest and capable official was
placed at its head, and its affairs con-
Quoted on sound business principles,
an astounding number of false and
fraudulent entries would come to
light, and that the persons making
them stood not only in danger of
losing the land and money invested,
but also of criminal proceedings
being commenced against them. 1t
il TO be hoped that all cases where
the spirit of the law has not been
complied with will be brought to
light. Not only is the title to vast
tracts of land at stake; but in the
manner in which the government
deals with the people in this matter
there is a great moral lesson. If
heretofore those who were dishonest
enough were allowed to take possess
sion by questionable methods of
larg3 number of broad acres, while
their more conscientious neighbors
were compelled to be content with
much smaller possessions, the les
sons in the past in this regard must
be unlearned. The introduction of
more honest and honorable methods
iii the government land Office will
make it far easier for the citizens of
the territories to accept the truth of
the saying that corruption wins
not more than honesty" and will
have benign influence upon all of
their business tranactions, and will
tend to the advancement of good
government and good morals gener-
ally. In another column will be
found vigorous editorial from The
Madison Democrat upon this sub
iect, and in which is contained an
extract from the able letter Of Mr..
Washburn above referred to.

County, about twenty miles east of here.
A band of young white men. styling them.
selves 1.-THE Regulators" have issued de-
cree that no negro shall work on the farms
in that vicinity. The band contains about
fifteen members, and they have killed three
negroes and wounded several others. A
perfect state Of terror prevails in the coE-
munity, and the entire county is greatly ex-
cited over the matter. The best people in
the community, and in fact every one ex-
cept members of this band, condemn the
atrOcious and bloody actions in the most
pronounced terms and are determined that
every member in it shall be arrested and
made to answer for his crimes.
Hon. J. NJ. Kelly was here to-day to see
the Governor, and wants to arrest every one
of the young outlaws at all hazards. About
twenty citizens. headed by officers, armed
with proper weapons. are now after the
young desperad0es, and it is believed will
soon effect their capture. 1t seems when
the attempt was first started to regulate the
negroes that 1t was made more in fun than
any thing else, but after tasting blood they
had undertaken in earnest to execute their
bloody design. Their action can hardly be
accounted for and is q surprise to every
one.

ExTRACITION.

Provisions OF tie L....,n.led Extradition
Treaty With Great Britain.
NEW YORK, July 20.-The full text Of
the convention recently signed in London
by Minister Phelps and the Earl of Rose
berry, extending and adding to the treaty
of 1912, has been made public with an
explanatory letter from Minister Phelps.
The convention extends the provisions of
Article X. OF the treaty of 1912 to four
crimes not therein mentioned, rs follows:
Manslaughter, burglary, emheZzlement.
or larceny involving the amount OF
fifty dollars or ten pounds, and mali
cious injuries to property whereby the
lite of any person shall be endangered
if such injuries constitute q crime ac-
cordiD. to the laws of both countries. 1t
is also provided that the provisions of
article Y. shall apply to persons convict
ed of crimes named in the treaty of 1872
and the new convention, as well rs to,
those charged before trial with the COM
mission OF them. The convention is not
retroactive; no surrender is to be de-
handed for political offcnse, and no.
trial is permitted fo~ any other offense
than the one for which extradition is re-
guested until the person extradited has
had opportunity to return to the State d
which lie was surrendered.
In his letter to the Secretary OF State
Mr.. PHELPS says IL is understood between
the two governments that the conventions
shall not stand in the wav of more
elaborate treaty, if one is desired, but.
he expresses the opinion that new
treaty will not be necessary.

THE McCOMAS MURDERER.

ChecO, the Apache Chief, In Washington
A New Mexican Citizen Tells What He
Knows About the Bloodthirsty villain.
WASHINGTON, July 22.-H. II. Carpen-
ter, of Silver City, N. NJ, an operator of
mining mills, is in Washington. In an
interview to-day upon the subject of the
visit of the Apachcs to this city, he said:
81 have no doubt they are all murderers,
but the chief of this group, whom you
have already denounced, is an unques-
toned murderer. Twill contracs myself
to furnish all the evidence that Is re-.
quired TO convict him of the murder of the
McComas family, and, beside that, feel
perfectly confident that the evidence can
be furnished, if necessary, to convict
him of fifty murders. l see that you
have spelled his name ChacO. The cor
rect rendition of his name is Checo.
Chcco is in the neighbOrhood of fifty
years OF age. For nearly twenty five
years he has been the leader of band
of the most desperate outlaws and MUIR
derers known in our territory. We have
never received any proper protec-
ton from the Government. The
property interests of New Mexico are
to-day languishing ON account of
the fact that the Apaches have never yet
been properly controlled or punished.
Crook was an imbeci!e in his attempt to
solve the Indian question. His hobby
was the employment of these Apaches as
scouts. understand that this murderer,
Checo. has been employed by the militia
~ authorities as a scout. There is pien-
fv IF ha
to convict Checo. McCOmas was lawyer
living in Silver City lie had ranch
within fifteen miles of that place. 1t was
while going to this ranch, accompanied
by his wife and boy, that he was capt
urcd by Checo and his crew. There is
very clear evidence that Checo murdered
McComas with his own hand; ut any
rate, he was the chief in command"

o'clock yesterday morning, was at Arm
strong. Indian Territory, about twenty
five miles from this place, Conductor
Brown discovered the remnants Of
mans body attached to the brake beam
of the sleeper. Closer investigation
showed that some unfortunate person,
who had sought free ride to Texas on a.
brake beam, had lost his balance and
fallen off, while his clothing caught,
holding him so that he was literally
whipped into shreds. His head was en-
tirely gone, except one ear. His legs
we're also gone, except the skin. In
short, with the exception of one hand
and a forearm and part of the neck, there
was nothing but the skin left to tell
whether it was man or en- animal that.
had been nayed alive under the coach.
