THOSE KANSAS HORSES.
The Coroner is Finally Called Into

Coroner Drexel issued writs Of replevin
yesterday morning in the case j. z. New
comb against the sheriff and his deputies to
got possession of the stolen horses which are
now in. South Omaha in charge Of Burke &
Frazier, commission merchants.
The horses were stolen in Kansas by Ed
ward Walters, it will be remembered, and
taken to the Magic City. A few days ago
the alleged owners of the animals demanded
the possession of seven of them from Deputy
Sheriff George Stryker, who had arrested
Walters, but the latter now refuses TO re-
lease the horses until he gets his reward. He
has received $3.50 of the $3.50 offered for the
capture of the thief.
The replevln suit was started in the county
court by James Beck, q colored man, ana
A. Is. Pierson, marshal of Wamega, Kan,
who claim that the horses belong on New
combs ranch in Wabaunsee county,, Kansas.
Ncwcomb is a resident of Roche ster, n. Y,
and instructed Beck and the marshal to get
the animals and return them to the ranch.
Another reason why the deputy sheriff will
not give up the possession Of the horses, to-
gether with the reason that he has not re-
ceived the full amount. OF the reward, is that
he paid $50 freight to the railroad company
in order to seize the stock himself, and as
Beck and Pierson refuse to remunerate
him for these charges, the dep
uty still holds the eguines. The
alleged owners also claim that MIR. Stryker
believed that Walters would be sent to the
penltentlary on the charge of stealing two
other horses and that be lthe deputy would
get 10 be owner OF the horses # Walters
could show that the animals were his, and
Mr.. Stryker did Livingstone of them were the
property Of Walters. Beck and Pierson
stated that they would remain in Omaha I'M
til they could get possession of their stock,
and said they would have their rights.
just before the wrlts were served 1t was
stated that Mr.. Stryker had taken the horses
and had gone to Sarpy county with them TO
evade service. Whether or not this was true
remains TO be seen, but the deputy could not
be found around the sheriff's office yesterday.
The coroner went TO South Omaha and
served the writs ON the commission men, and
got possession of five Of the horses yesterday
afternoon.

for rifle pits. They were determined to es-
cape or die. They had been disarmed, but
still had a fair supply of ammunition and
rifles. The women, by stealing out at night,
passed guns and ammunition in to them.
The hour set for the outbreak was in the
night. Suddenly they fired on their guards,
SIX IN number, killing or wounding all of
them. Then they rushed out and, driving
their women and children before them,
began their retreat up the little valley of
Soldier Creek above the post. There are
some mountains and bad lands about ten
miles off, and these they hoped to reach be-
fore the soldiers could get out and ovcrtake
them.
The garrison, aroused by the firing, rallied
promptly and a hand-to-hand fight with the
Indians began. Many of tho Indians were
barefotted, and 1T was midwinter. The ice
and snow was marked with a trail of blood
from their naked feet. The scene was Il ter.
riblc one-thc cries of the wounded, the fir
ing of the guns and the yells and shouts of
the combatants c~Ommlngllng Inc troops
pressed hard and the Indians, finding they
could not reach the Badlauds or mountains,
made a stand in a ravinc.
Here the troops surrounded them on every
side. Captain Vessels Third cavalry con
Quoted the fight, assisted by Lieutenant
Chase, of the same regiment. The Indians
fought bravery, but would not surrender.
They wanted to die fighting. AS the soldiers
made sad havoc in their ranks they closed up
and fought on.
Finally there were but a few Indians left,
and these declined TO surrender. Then the
soldiers charged on them Ghey had no anu
nition) and fired on them until the last one
fell. Men, women and children were wiped
out, and Wild Hogs band was Il thing of the
past. All had gone to the happy hunting
grounds but old Wild Hog, who was locked
up in the guard hausc at Fort Robinson. One
hundred and seventy-five dead Indian bodies
were taken out of the little conlee above the

The Theory TINT the Earth Has n
Thlrd 3EutiMn.

Marshal Wheeler is the author of
the new and startling theory or sci
ence that the earth has third mo-
ton. His theory, which is borne
out by all the traces on the surface
of the earth-and the wonder is that
ii has never been advanced and
adopted before-is that at certain
regular periods the earth reverses
its position, so that the equator be-
GENES the poles and the poles be-
come the equator. At each of these
turns the water is thrown over the
earth, and the nations and CONT
nents disappear in the great oceans,
with only few exceptions in GER
tain parts of the earth, while new
continents and new nations rise, IN
the march of ages, where the oceans
of former periods rolled. The last
turn brought the continents that
now exist up out of the great waters,
and, at the next turn, where we now
live and where the great American
republic flourishes, the oceans will
again roll the great ice fields of
the poles will be thawed out and run
down over the land under the torrid
zone, and the present tropics will
become solid ice in their new posi-
ton at the poles, thus accounting
for the vast quantities of the re-
mains of tropical ANIMALS and plants
found frozen up in Alaska and 81
IBERIA, and the traces of ice glaciers
in the torrid zone. He maintains
that the earth is not temporary
body, but permanent part of the
universe that has always existed and
never will end, and has been washed
over and created anew at regular
periods throughout countless mil
lions Of years, man and all its other
productions having been swept off,
leaving only here and there enough
for seed, and their locations chang
ed at each turn, and that this pro-
cess will 60 on forever-a new earth
washed clean and a new deal, at re-
gular periods throughout eternity.
He is collecting vast array Of facts
gathered from all climes, to prove
this theory, which he thinks is al
ready established by well-known
facts that cannot be explained in
any other way Eugene City

AN INTERESTING. SAMOAN.

Mrs. Laulii Willis, the Samoan
wife of A. A. Willis, an absconding
contractor from San Francisco sup
posed to be in these islands, has
gone East as caretaker and inter
prefer to the Samoan troupe Of
dancers lately here. The Snowman
had sent the chief of the band back
to Samoa, on account of his Inordi
nate fonaness for whisky, upon
which the men mutinied and Mrs.
Willis was employed to pacify them.
Succeeding in this as no one else
could, and being without funds to
join her husband as he desired in
Australia, she accepted the regular
engagement above noted. The San
Francisco Chronicle says Mrs. Laulii
Willis is well-educated, ladylike,
and is the authoress of an interest
ing book on "Laulii, Daughter of
Samoa"

SECRET POLITICAL SOCIETY.
Discovery of Organizations In IAa-
makua District.

A short time since it got rumored
around the district of Hamakua,
Hawaii, that secret meetings were
being held by number of natives.
Under orders from Deputy Sheriff
Lyman, police officer Thomas, on
learning there was to be a meeting
at Waipio, went to that place. He
entered the room and demanded the
books and papers from the secretary.
In the books were found a number
of certificates, and it was found
there were 81 members. There was
a committee, names unknown, and
the members swore to fulfil any
order whatever issued by this COM
mittee. Letters have been received
and also enough information to show
that J. X. Kaunamano was at the
head of the affair. The preamble
compelled all members and candi-
dates for the elections if elected to
do anything the committee desired.
1t was also found that similar
organization existed at Kaala in that
