An Old Testament mistake.

A Partisan paper calls attention to a
singular mistake in the revised version
of the Old Testament, or rather to the
preparation of an old error. 1t occurs
in II Chronicles xxi, /. where Ahaziah
is described as. at the age of %, having
succeeded his father, who died at the
age Of 40. Seeing that another, and a
perfectly possible account of the same
circumstance is given in II Kings viii,
90, 1t ID surprising that the obvious error
should have escaped correction. Ac-
cording to the Book of Kings, Ahaziah's
real age at his accession was only %. AT
the time of Ahaziah's birth, therefore,
his father was ia fair age for a Syrian
father of a firstborn. This particular
error is older than the art Of printing.
1t dates back to some ancient Hebrew
copy Of the Book of Chronicles. 1t is re-
produced in the Douai version of the Old
Testament.-San Francisco Chronicle.

SIOUX RESERVATION BILL.
Almost CertDin That It Win Be Ratified
aiY She Indians.

Almost CertBin That It Win Be Ratified
by The Indians.
Chamberlain, SO. Dakota, April 49,
The Indians at Lower Brute agency
have had couriers running to and fro be-
tween the agencies to find out the feel
ines OF the different tribes toward the
Sioux reservation bill. A courier, who
arrived from Rosebud agency, brings the
good news That The indians are almost
unanimous in favor OF the bill, as ere,
also. the Indians at Pine Ridge agency.
This news is very gratifying to the peo-
pie who are anxious to hsle the lands
opened to settlement, The Rosebud
Ird!ar 8 are the most oneiviIizsd and the
wildcat Indians on the reservation, and
there are SO many of them that the agent
in charge doea not have as good control
yer them as nt the other agencies. The
commission that treated with the In
dians lsst year IN regard 10 relin9uishing
q part Of their lands Gid not visit either
Pine Ridge or Rosebud, as bll reports
from these agencies were very discour-
aging, and the commissioners gave up
the attempt and had delegations OF chiefs
from the different agencies nees them IN
Washington, where the chiefs, on the
part OF the Sioux nation, and. the COM
missicners and ex-Secressry Villas, on
the pert OF the government,
agreed upon q bill thar the rank
AID file of the Indians would accept.
The outcome of this agreement ia the
present Sioux bill, and as it was framed
according to the wishes of the Ipdit ms
will undoubtedly bece me q law. Rose
bud has about seven thousand, two
hundred Indians. and If this agency Yves
against the till it would not become a
law, even ii the commission succeeded
in getting the unanimous support at the
other places.
The Indians at Pine Ridge will sup
port the bill. as section q of the Sioux
bill eppropriates $685. 0O in payment OF
the ponies were taken from them and
sold by the government troops in 1876.
They do not get this money unless che
bill is ratified, and this alone will urge
them to work at the other agencies in
favor OF the measure. This section was
incorporated in the bill at the urgent re-
quest OF Red CLOUD. head chief OF the
Pine Ridge agency. He and his follow
ers are working hard in favor of the
measure, and with the news received
from Rosebud, there is not much doubt
but that the Sioux reservation bill will
be ratified and become q law, thereby
throwing open to actual settlement H.
100000 acres of the most fertile land 10
South Dakota. Tho many years ighs
for che opening OF the reservation is
drawing nesr an end. and will terminate
in the work being successfully accom-
plished.

He was Running the Train.

a good story is told about one of the
Maine Central engineers, says The Ban
gor Commercial. Last summer when
the Vanderbilt car was at Bar Harbor
the manager of the Maine Central sent
an engine down there to take the car to
Portland. The run was made in very
quick times and at Brunswick the train
stopped to take on water. While there
Mr.. Vanderbilt got out and said to the
engineer that he didn't want him to drive
SO fast. The engineer, the veteran Simp-
son, looked at him for a quarter of a
minute. and then said: II am running
this train under orders from Payson
Tucker to be in Portland at 1:07. If you
want to stop here, all right. Ifyou want
to go to Portland, get in" He got in
