A DEAD MULE" IN TOWN.
Al Irish Squaw Man Gets Little tb
Best of BushyheRd.

Bushyhead, one of the msnbers Of
the Cherokee Commission, is still in
Washington, and many a one passes
the Indian chief without knowing he
is an Indian. He is tall brown of
skin, but has the features of the Cau-
casian race; and it is said he is not
more than one-eighth Indian.
He married some years ago n niece
of Senator Butler. of South Carolina,
who had gone out to Tahlequah as a
teacher. A good story is told of him
when he was Governor of the Cherokee
Nation. The Chcrokees are the most
civilized of all the Indian tribes, and
one of their laws Is in favor of prohibit
ton. The law of the United States Is
that no one shall give or sell firewater
to an Indian, but the Cherokee legisla-
tors go further and prohibit the bring
ing of it into the Territory.
In Tahlequah, when Bushyhead was
Governor, there was an Irish black
smith named Mike Delaney. Now.
Mike had been received into the tribe
because he had married squaw, and,
strange as it may seem, was moro of
an Indian than any native. He used
to crate by the hour over his forge at
tho wrongs Of the red men, and ono Of
his fayorite perorations was:
1--WE have been pairsccuted by the
white man, dhriven from our homes in
Georgia over the mountains an val.
leys, an our noble Inheritance stholcn
away from u.s."
Mike frequently delivered himself OF
this, and the more fire-water he had in
him the more lannel-mouthed and un-
Indian was his brogue. He and Bushy-
head were great friends, and one day
when the Governor was at the court
the Legislature, the saaaW.maa saa vsfnt ap. o
peared and beckoned imperiously.
"Come here" he whispered, ''Oi've
something to tell you. There's dead
mule in town." A ''dead mule" is
Western slang for keg of whisky.
Give me dollar" continued Mike,
"an' I'll buy II bottle an keep it in the
shop until yez can be afturr comm to
dhrink it.n
The Governor gave the money, an
half an hour later, dcputizing some
to take his place, he made his way
the forge. From afar off he heard TIN
inspiring strains of the Irish Washer
woman and as he drew near he rccog-
nized the oft-rcpcatcd refrain, Och
hone, Widow Machroc. och hone,
Widow Machrcc." the melody stoutly
maintained by an anvil chorus. Rush

GUS blacksmith, whom he at once asked
for his share of the dead mule"

A Murderous DEPUTY MARSHAL

KNOXVILLE, TENN, June 3.-Re-
ports received here last night state
that Bud Lindsay, Deputy United
States marshal, shot and killed Kits,
a distiller, in Campbell county. Lind
say wished q gallon of whiskey.
kits told him he could not sell less
than ten gallons Under his license.
Lindsay got mad and abused kits.
The distiller's fourteen year-old son
thought his father in danger and
threw rock at Lindsay. Lindsay
attempted to shoot kits, but his
party took his pistols from him. They
left, and when mile awdy Lindsay
asked for his pistols, saying he would
do no harm. He got his pistols,
wheeled his horse and rode back to
kits house. The latter saw him
coming and locked his door, but
Lindsay broke it down and shot
kits twice, killing him instantly. He
then attempted to shoot the boy, but
missed him and hit little girl seri-
ously wounding her. It is reported
that Lindsay's party arrested him
and gave him over to the sheriff of
the county. Lindsay is desperate
character, having murdered prom
inent citizen of Campbell county five
years ago and escaped because of lack
of evidence, claiming self-defence,
and there were no witnesses. The
place of the recent killing is twenty
five miles from telegraph station.

Her eager eyes were fixed on the face

of the gaze began to grow uneasy un-

looking the girl coldly i.sibe face. she
loaned partly across the aisle and said:

his title OF Colonel by being ap-

the national recruiting station Mt Ell
mira with squad of recruits. For
some reason or other they were left
In his charge for few days, and the
Colonel. of course, took the oppor-
tunity to put them through a thor
ough course of discipline, according
to his ideas. Commencing with
four courses of prayer on Sunday, the
recruits were marched, drilled and
worked about twelve hours day un-
til Thursday. That day the Colonel
had set down ON his program for
''skirmish day" He considered that
his soldiers had advanced far enough
in the bloody trade of war TO be
shown what skirnish duty meant, SO
he led them out ON the wooded hills
above the town to skirmish. They
are sllirnishing yet, so far as Uncle
Sam Las any official record. Five
days with the Colonefalad cooled
they military ardor, and they took TO
the woods and the cornficlds. After
two or three encounters with infuriat-
ed bossy calves and wild-eyed farm
dogs, the Colonel returned, q forlorn
hope, to camp.-New York Star.
