RED-SKINNED FlENDS,

Details of tho Massacre or Settlers in
Northern Minnesota
A dispatch from Mora. MinD, says: "Tho
treacherous Chippewa Indians are on the
war-path again, aud til re are gravo fears
OF agenerai uprising. Already seven Swedo
laborers have been massacred and several
hundred laborers and settlers are now hur-
rying here for safety.
"SheriT Nicholson, mounted on an Indian
pony rode to town and gave the alarm. lie
also com municated to Governor Merriam
requesting him to order out the State troops
to quell the uprising. The present trouble
is tho outgrOwth Of encroachment 10y the
whites upon tho Mile Laos reservation. Re
Gently u contract was awarded by the set
tiers to Foley BROTH rs of ST. Paul, to dig a
ditch for irrigating purposes from Mile
Ines lax to point on tho Smoke river near
this place. When the Indians learned q
ditch was to be cua they at once came TO
tho conclusion that tho int 'ntion was to drain
the latter aud deprive them Of thoir fishing
privileges.
Notice was scrvod by the Indians upon
the contractors. warning them that il thcy
uid not leave the territory at ones they
would be put to death. The contractors
gave no heed to the warning, but came hero
and engaged 300 laborers who began work
at Mile Llcs. About noon they wero at
tackled by party of about 40 Chippewas
led by White Snake and Great Benr.
The Indians were i'm full war paint and
were armed with Winchester rifles and toma-
hawks. AS soon rs they saw the reds com.
ing the laborer5 dropped their shovels and
He'd toward this place. Th5y were pursued
by the savages who shot and killed soven
men.
Several others were wounded but not
seriously.

IF the lady had q purse. it will be
found in the travelling bag"
He rummaSCs through the bag.
There is no sign of purse.
"Dcscriho tho lady. Was she fair? ?"
"Yes. 1 should say So Though her
face was SO dreadfully burned that
one could hardly tell what it must have
looked like before the q 'cident. She
had brown hair and blue eyes. an
certain she was blonde"
"How was she attircd2'
"In black. thought it was mourn
ing; she had Grape stones in her ears.
Pm certain now that she was in mourn
ing"
Then the visitors heal sank far
down upon his breast A sigh escapes
him. He rousos himself to find the eyes
Of tho "motherly woman" sternly fixed
upon him.
"I am satisfied" he says shortly. "At
first thought perhaps it might be a
case of mistaken identity; but your de-
scription has dispelled that thought
But about the lady you spoke Of; the
one who acted the part of the good
Samaritan Who is she, and where is
she now?'
The "motherly woman" draws n card
from her pocket, and with some pride
places the card in the outstretched
hand Of hcr visitor.
He reads tho name easily, for it is
written in clear hand

Then he puts tho card carefully in
his pocket.
With your permission, will keep
this, lie says, speaking in more civil
tone. Il would like to I'll upon the lady
and thank her in person for her kind
ness to my dead relative"
Shall you take the hag?'
lie shook his head in tho negative.
"You may have it, and the contents
too. 1 have no use for other"
Then lie turned upon his heel, and
walked quickly in the direction of tho
cemetery.

CHAPTER VIIL.-JCoNTINuEp.l

Then bell rings. The girl shows
her down stairs and leaves her ut the
open door of the dining-room.
AS Loo pauses for n moment in tho
doorway, undecided whether to advance
or retreat, for save her own presence
the room seems empty, q slight excla-
nation startles her. Loo looks up. A
tall man, attred in plain black, owl
dently the butler, for ho carried tho
pantry keys in his hand, and waiter
loaded with fruits stood on tho s'da-
board Mt his hand, whore he had ap-
parently just placed it. His face turned
CHASTITY white, and his eyes fell as they
encountered her own.
Where had she seen him before2 She
was puzzled. His face was familiar;
surely mt some time or other she had
seen him before.
e. He rccovers himself, approaches re-
spectfully, and points out the seat she is
!. to occupy at the table.
''' Thon she knows him. She is startled
terrified.
"Scarthl" she calculates impotu-
ously.
Tho butlor's eyes meet her own now.
There is stooly glcam in his pale blue
orbs that frightens her moro and more.
"NIiss is mistakon," ho says civilly,
but with q subtle note of warning in his
respectful tones. Il am Kibbey, the
butler"
"But you wcro-I am sure you once
waited at" began Loo.
Never" denies kibbcy vehemcntly.
And they found that diamond
when-"
"hIiss is deceived by fancied re-
semblanco which sho imagines / bear
to one whom she has met under difficult
ties-porhaps," politely says the but
Ter. MY namo is Parker Kibbey, and
/ have the best of references"
AT this moment the Madam enters
the dining room, leaning on tho Cap
ti.in's arm. They now all take their
places ut table, and the butler serves
thom.
1t is we'll for her future peace of mind
! That Loo sits with her back to the but
| Ter, and that she cannot see the awful
look of fear and hato in the buffers
eyes. For, moro plainly than words
can say it, that look says-murder.

SlSts upon -DelnB sung 10 eacn uay, hlo
Loo really sings very swcetly. Her
voice is not ono that will make her for
tune as cantatrice; but it is sweet and
low, and fairly well cultivated tho
kind of voice We all like to hear Groom
ing old time ballads in tho twilight.
Evidently others besides Madam en-
Joy tho poor little nobody's music; for
Captain Hazard has somehow fallen into
the habit of qu ;etly seeking corner OF
the drawing-room, as tho shadows be-
gin TO gather and Loo takes her place
Mt the piano.
Loo, however, is quito unconscious of
this action on his part. She slips into
her seat and sings tho simple old songs
Madam calls for, then when this il
done she slips away rs quietly rs she
had come.
Tho little cuckoo clock over the
mantel sings out the hour nine as she
rises now from the piano.
"Good-night, Madam" she says.
Goodnight, my DEAR" answers Ma
dam, and the girl fits away.
"ive been thinking lately" says
Madam Dundas. he koning to tho Cap
tain, who leaves his shaded nook and
now approaches his friend. "l'vo been
thinking lately that you should marry"
Hazard laughs lightly.
81 once thought SO too," no replies.
"But you know | never could quite
make up my mind to offer myself
sacrifice on the altar matrimonial, after
ALL"
"Selfish creature" Madam smiles,
then grows serious. 81 have thought
l.l- III ,k,
Stubbletiold-tha at last you had met
your fate"
"Deucod fine girl, that Lafarge,"
says the Captain.
"Not to be compared with Loo"
"Loo is n little, tlinty hearted. cold
blooded iceberg"
She is very discreet. never believed
Frederic Bottoms daughter was what
she has proven TO be. l have thought
lately, Captain, that perhaps you wero
right after all, and that it is my duty to
provide for her future.
II was sure you would come round
at last, cries the Captain, enthusiastic
ally. "Aunt Dundas, you are incom-
parable aftor all. Provide for Loo by
all means"
"Though, by so doing, your own
share of my fortune will be lessened
that much?"
Certainly"
Madam closes her eyes and sits silent
for somo time. Then she says slowly,
and with evident hesitation, "I made
q change in my will yesterday. in fact,
made new will entirely. Captain, |
wish it might bo SO, that the money
would remain undivided in your hands
after my dccease. If you could forget
Miss Lafarge, and transfer your attcn-
tions to lady little nearer home, we
might arrive ut solution of difficulty
that troubles me now."
The Captain colors. He understands
what her meaning is.

For mothers Tansod tho portals bi igbt

And while sit in the twilight low,
My thoughts thoy wander wide;

Since lknelt by her sido,
A chubby boy with fiaycn hair
Her love enshrined mo thon;
And had always sat me there,
What might my past have beoni
For steadfast rs tho stars above
No'er wavrinS to tho end.
Next God above, my mothers love
Was my best earthly fricnd
60 swift tho years bavo gIided on,
They all seem yesterdays;
And reviow, in the past tn IT'S gone,
Her guidance OF my ways.
Oft-times I start, amid tho gloom,
As IL her voice hoard;
Aid list my car around the room
That may hear her word.
But o. alasi hcr voico ia still

Unless it bo that, by Gods will,

And IL no deigns to hoar my prayer,
