DEATH OF the sEmDERs.
"reminiscences Of q Cherokee IN
dian Who claims to Have
900n the Family
Killed.

RICHMOND, Ind, November I'D
Parker, who was working on paper
in Kansas when the Benders took their
fight, and again in Parsons when ther
report was rife ten years ago that "old
man Bender and his wife had been
found in Colorado, says his work there
convinces him that old Mrs. Bender and
Kate have not been found in Michigan
now. Working In the office was an In
dian boy who said his father saw the
whole Bender family killed in 1873,
and Parker went with hi m to interview
the old Cherokee. He had been hun
ting and saw campfire down in a
valley about dark, and as he looked
that way he saw body of horsenen
approach, Kill the old man and son,
then the old woman and daughter,
who fought as desperately as the men
after which they killed the horses,
piled all together in a heap, wagon,
men. women and horses, added brush
and built a fire that they replenished
until nearly all was consumed, when
they buried the remainder and depar-
ted The old Cherokee detailed the
surroundings so minutely that with his
son and Ed Davis, printer, Parker, a
easily found the spot and by
digging unearthed harness irons, wag-
on tires, pieces of chains, ETC., among
a bed of ashes. This convinced them
that the old Cherokee's story was true.
But Parker says he has confidence in
Leroy F. whom hs personally knew
well, and if he will say the prisoners
are old Mrs. Bender and Kate he will
believe it. Yet Parker says that at
the same time, 1879, he went to see
Colonel York, the leader of the pur-
suers, at Fort Scott, and asked him
what he thought of the reported cap /
ture His response, with a knowing
look, was that when he was the sole
survivor of the band he would tell the
fate of the Blenders, but until then he
must be silent.

The evidence for the state in the
Cronin trial is complete OH the points
So far touched The Identification of
DIR. Cronin's body was sufficient to
convince a jury; the medical testimony
established pretty conclusively the
fact of murder: the condition of the
remains was evidence that death had
occurred somewhere about MAY 4th:
the evidence that DR.. Cronin was last
heard of on the evening of May 18th, al
which time he was seen in company of
kunze and Coughlin to get out of q
carriage and enter the Carls On cottage
is convincing. But the most essential
facts still await proof

Upon their return the Delaware states

The w. C. T. U. is all we'll enough
in its place, but when an organization
overshoots the mark in its infancy,
there can but be defeat and blow to
the temperance cause which it will
take months to regain. The people of
community must have confidence in
the work of faithful ". IT. U. ladies
be fore any good can be accomplished.
This has been demonstrated in other
places and the same will prove to be
so here. \ society just organized
cannot branch out and do the work
which older societies in other places
have failed to do. The method of
trying to influence witnesses will no,
work in this day and age, and espe.
cially in enlightened Kansas. If the
ladies attend court as disinterested
parties, it is all well and good enough;
but when they appear as an organized
body of temperance workers, it can
but be detrimental to the successful
prosecution of those charged with
selling liquor. Many jurymen can
but look upon it as distasteful, and
the influence is bound to be directed
in the wrong way. This same plan
has often been tried, but in every in.
stance has it been proven fallacious
idea, and the W. c. T. L. ladies have
abandoned the mode. The ladies
should be aided in their good work
and the CAT compliments them fol
their faithful enegetic spirit, and good
intentions, but they will find by ex
perience, if not already so, that nc
good can be accomplished by appear
ing in the court room with the hope
that their presence will have tenden.
cy to aid in prosecuting those charged
with selling liquor.

band in the recent state elections
He says that his old soldier friends
either voted the democratic ticket or
staid away from the polls because
Harrison did not have the courage of
