Never begin TO read, write or sew

A Famous Chief.

A good deal of discussion has arisen
regarding the probable fate and where
abouts of the famous Apache chief,
Mangus Colorado. This discussion has
been started anew by the recent cap
ture rear Fort Thomas of the Young
chief. Mangus. Many think they are
one and the same. Young Mangus is
tho nephew of Mangus Colorado, and
owns a fine cattle ranch in the Sierra
Madre. Unlike his uncle he has for
years been leading a quiet life i'm his
Mexican mountain retreat and did not
90 on the warpath until the late Apache
war had been far advanced. He did,
however, aid the raiding hostilities by
providing them with a safe retreat
when they struck the Sierra Madre
mountains. This man was quite con
versant with the English language and
could at any time enter a town and
with his rare knowledge of Spanish
pass himself Off as Il Mexican, hence
the Importance of his cooperation.
The facts regarding the fate of the old
chief, Magnus Colorado, are well
known in this part of the country and
they are these:
In the latter part of April last Mag
nus Colorado and his followers, to the
number of about fifteen. were raiding
in the vicinity of the Hilstadt ranch,
100 miles southwest of here, and made
1t very warm for the vaqueros belong
ing to the ranch. One morning early
the vaquerOs on the ranc set fire to sew
eral piles Of logs and brush near the
corral, and then went into the corral
to separate some cattle. While thus
engaged Mangus Colorado and his
band came around the corner of the
corral and opened fire. The first to
see them was young Hilstadt. who
called to his companions, and at once
opened fire with his Winchester. The
first shot killed old Mangus Colorado,
and then a general fight ensued. re-
sulting in the killing Of four more
Apaches and the routing Of the bal
ance. Incensed by the frequent raids
OF the Apaches, the vaqucros, after the
fight, put the bodies of the dead In
dians on the fires and burned them.
The body of Mangus Colorado was
placed alone on the heap of burning
logs and reduced to ashes. One of the
vaqueros who was in the fight and took
part in the burning, picked up some of
charred bones Of the old chief. brought
them to this city and presented them to
j. j. Chatham, who now has them in
his possession.

Foundered at Sea.

NEW HAVEN, Conn, Nov. S.-The United
States steamer Manhattan, Lieutenant Com
mander Tosier in command, foundered and
went to the bottom of Southwest ledge, two
miles outside OF this harbor. at $3.50 O'Clock
Yesterday morning. At the time the vessel
sank there was a heavy sea on, with a fierce
gale blowing. The Manhattan came into this
harbor some time during the night anu an
chored IN the channel of the Yacht club
house. Custom house officials seem To know
but very little about the vessels mission in
these waters. but think that she was on special
duty of come character, and mention the set
ting of buoys, examination OF lighthouses or
looking after coasttng and trading vessels to
see that their papers were &c rrectly made out,
and that they were engaged in the trade sane
toned by their official papers.
William Kane, an oyster man at Oyster
Point, said that he noticed the yes
sells pass out Of the harbor and set a course
toward the southwest, and that she pitched
heavily in the sea. She shipped two or three
seas and apparently strugg ed very much
She then turned half around TO the eastward,
and Kane says her condition grew more la
bored. He ran to notify the tug Office In this
city by telephone to send assistance, and was
gone but ten minutes. He was unable to
raise the city, however, and when he returned
the vessel was still struggling against both
wind and tide. To all appearances the vesse
could not be controlled by her wheel. Kane
says that he then ran for about forty feet
across a warehouse floor to call his employer
and that when he returned after an absence OF
not over two minutes she had disappeared.
Not a vestige OF her was TO be seen, either by
the naked eye or with glasses. Kanc's story
is corroborated by Smith, the proprie.
tor OF a hotel at the sou b end of the eastern
shore.
Late this afternoon quantities Of biscuits
and what looked like cabin timbers came
ashore near Lighthouse point.
The steamer Manhattan was a stauch screw
and carried a crew Of ninety-fve men. She
was commanded by Lieut.. ID. +. Tozier, who
is regarded as one OF the ablest officers In the
service, and 1t is believed by the chief Of the
revenue marine that she could not have foun-
dered unless as the result Of some accident.
Other officers Of the Manhattan were: Second
Lieut.. w. S. Holland, executive officer; Third
Lieut.. j. G. Harris, Engineer James Ogden
and Assistant Engineer Willets Pedrick.

That ! shrink before my wife's kind gaze,
And am stung by each tender word;
And the children who troop around my knee,
And deem me SO good and wise,

Or the tears that bedim my eyes.
Were my old love wed, well, then, perhaps,
All these thoughts | could soon dissipate,
And yet, had her fate so designed it, ! fear,
The man she had wed | should hate.
| Can her heart have been true TO the past,
While mine has fresh anchorage sought.

Cure For Piles.

Piles are frequently preceded by sense
of weight in the back, loins and lower part
Of the abdomen, causing the patient to
suppose he has sone affection of the kid
neys or neighboring organs. AT times,
symptoms of indigestion are present, as
aatulency, uneasiness Of the stomach, etc.
A moisture, like prespiration, producing a
disagreeable itching, after getting warm is
a common attendant. Blind, bleeding
and itching Piles yield at once to the ap-
plicaiion of Bosanko's Pile Remedy, which
acts directly upon the parts affected,
absorbing the tumors, allaying the intense
itching, and efiecting permanent cure.
