The records of humanetsocieties on

fact that q very fair proportion OF
the medals awarded for saving life

Der Of instances Of rescues made by

counts for the comparative ease
with which women learn to swim on
the ground that as their bones are
generally lighter then those Of men
and their flesh more buoyant, they
have less difficulty to overcome in

Minnesota Indian Lands.

Senator Sabin, from the committee on In
dian affairs, reported Nelson's bill to negoti-
ate with Chippewa Indians for the complete
session Inc REIMBURSEMENT of their lands in
Minnesota, except Blue Earth and Red Lake
reservations, and also so much of these two
reservations as is not required to make
full allotmsnts, The important changes
which were agreed to by Mr.. Nelson and
Mr.. 6abin before this report was made oon-
sist In the manner of disposing Of the pine
lands, which ore to be estimated by the
thousand feet and offered at public auction
under the same provisions az are state and
school lands, in forty-acre tracts. The min
imum price of stumpage is fixed at % per
1900 feet, estimates of which shall be printed
and furnished applicants by the and Office at
C%rookston. The committee declined to en-
terrain an amendment of Senator Sabin set
ting aside sections Is and SO to, the State Of
Minnesota for school lands, Senator Dawes
claiming these reservations are not coded
lands and the state has nc right in them, and,
furthermore, if this provision is inserted that
it will prevent acceptance of the terms of the
bill by the Indians, asst will take from them
their funds arising out ofthe sale Of the lands
about $500 900. Senator Sabin says he
could not afford to jeopardizs the bill by
inserting this provision, however much he
desired to add this large sum to. the perma-
nent schoolfund of Minnesota. Opening this
large territory will benefit the treeless por-
taol Of Minnesota and cannot be delayed by
minor matters. The provisions for disposing
of the agricultural lands Ia to homesteaders

What the Sioux Want.

The Lower Brule council broke up without
reaching any conclusion. The delegates in
attendance from Standing Rock were Maj.
Mclaughlin, agent, and chiefs John Grass,
Gray Eagle, Sitting Bull, Walking Eagle,
Mad Bull; Big Head, Thunder Hawk, Bear
Rib and Walking Shooter from the Cheyenne
agency, Mr.. McChesney, Charger. Swift Bird,
Hump, White Swan, Littls No Heart and
Chiefs American Horse, No Flesh and Two
Strike from the Rosebud Swift Bear.
Good Voice and Hollow Horn
John Grass, Swift Bird, Charger and White
Swan acted as orators for the occasion. The
Indians were united in their opposition to
the bill as 1t now stands, butln the harangues
they made a proposition offering to sign for
t1.25 per acre, to be deposited in the ma
tional treasury without being contingent on
the sale of the lands under the homestead
law. They also wanted the school clause OF
the treaty Of 1868 extended and continued
to the provisions of the present treaty, that
Is, the treaty Of 1868 provided the Indians
with free schools for twenty years, and, as
ten years elapsed without the building of
any schools, they want the number OF years
thus lost added to the provisions OF the pres
ent treaty, which also provides for free
schools for twenty years, making thirty
years in all. Mai. Mclaughlin and DR.. Nc
Chesney are both of the opinion that unless
the terms Of the treaty are modified the In
dams will never sign. The commission
left for Washington, and will,
as soon as possible, lay before congress the
notifications Of the treaty required by the
Indians. 1t is not likely that any more work
will be done inside of q month, and unless a
modification Of the treaty is obtained from
congress- the present treaty will be rejected.

FOREIGN Cuttings.

Additional information hos been received
of the recent fighting at Samoa between the
forces of Tamasese and Malietoa, the depOs-
ed king, in which the Tamasese men were de-
feated. A correspondent writes from Apial
that the battle ground wns in and around
city and that several weeks b9fore the
'f9iftSHgg commenced the T1fnNaae forces had
built forts ana .Tl1ADi intrenchments
which were manned by over 1 900 men. Sept.
n Maljetoa's forces charged upon these
works and in less than two hours the Mama
sese men had been driven into the sea, where
they took refuge upon rats and finally got
away in boats. During the fight Capt. Bis.
sci, an Englishman living near Apia, was
shot and killed. He was not engaged in the
battle and the shooting is believed to have
been accidental. Four hundred lives were
lost, and tho wounded were cared for by the
British and American residents and assist
ance was also rendered by the surgeons on the
United States war ship Adams, now at Apia.

Numerous Murders in London.

The two women found murdered near the
scene of the former hutcheries in Whitechapel
lp London have been recognized as dissolute
characters who have long frequented that
vicinity. One Of them was found in Berner
street with her throat cutfrom ear to ear. The
other was discovered lying in Mitre square.
She, like the first mentioned victim, had her
throat cut, but in addition she had been dis
emboweled and her nose had been cut of.
The murderer had evidently been disturbed
in his work in Berner street, and had no time
to mutilate the body of his victim. The dis
the police, and Gen. Sir Charles Warren, chief
commissioner, was at once called out of bed.
He repaired Immediately to the scene of the
murders, n gave orders to have the police
force in that district strongly reinforced.
London is in a fever of ,eztiteInent and the
ldenizens Of .Wia.~aapel are in q state OF
81 the 'N horrible b%utcher issa1lp' tbe
,fcurth of which it was hoped, and quite gen.
serally believed, would be the last of the
ag5astly series. The police are positively
helpless and their stacit admission OF
failure to find any clue what
soever to the perpetrator Of the
terrible crimes only serves to
creatures whose calling has maIifestly made
them the objects of the inhuman butchers
fury. The number of theories advanced as
accounting for the murders and seeking to
establish the identity of the murderer is pos
lively bewildering, but none of them is ac-
cepted by the police as the correct one, al
though the Scotland Yard detectives have
nothing more plausible to offerfor themseIves
In q letter, which is written in o scrawling
hand, familarly addressed "Dear Boss" and
signed, "Jack, the Ripper" After Boosting
that he committed all of the Whitechapel
murders, the writer continues:
love my work and / want to start at it
again. The next job do I shall cut off the
lady's ear and send it to the police. Keep
this letter back till ] do q bit more work, and
then give it out to the police straight.
A remarkable feature of the Mitre square
murder is the fact that one of the dead wom-
stance is held to Indicate that the real mur

A wonderful weather plant has
been discovered in Corsica and other
points in the Mediterranean which is
said to be a sure prognosticator OF
coming meteorological events. It is
called botanically the Abrus Pere-
ginus. Why not attach a planta-
ton for these shrubs to the signal
service Office? The whole business
could then be run by the Intelligent
gardener. - -

A man giving the name of Morris Sullivan
was arrested at Fargo on a telegram from
Sheriff Kern of Traill county on suspicion o.
having murdered the tramp ut Hillsboro
The complaint was made by a farm hand
who claims to have witnessed the killing and
who furnished the description Of Sullivan
which led to his Identification.
James III. Goodman, O lawyer, of New
York, has fed from the wrath of the people
whom he has victimized. and is supposed to
be in Canada. The total of his stealings, &c
far, as known, foots up ga, 700, taken from
women and orphans. Goodman, among
other things, stole $4,000 from his wife
He aSoa got money from orphans and
widows by swindling them out of life insur'
ance policies.
= Deputy Sheriff Barnes Of Fargo came in
from Hillsboro and reported that q tramp
was murdered there. About fifty of them
were camping in the timber near the town,
and all were more or less under the influence
of liquor. Two became involved in q quar-.
rel, and one shot the other through the body,
killing him almost instantly. Eighteen or
twenty of them were arrested, but all claimed
to have been drunk and know nothing of the
killing.

is $1,000.
The 100 and odd railway ticket scalpers in
Chicago we're victimized to the amount of
about $4,000. A clever swindler made the

which the coupons from New Orleans to Chi
