CLEVELAND, OHIO, June 24.-Three
months ago Wanamaker s. Brown OF
Philadelphia secured contract for max
ing new suits of clothes for the life saw
ing service. On Thursday the suits for
this station arrived. The caps are some
thing like those worn by sleeping car
conductors, and there is nothing particu-
larly noticeable about the trousers, but
the guernseys are outlandish in appear
ance and otherwise unsuitable The,
material is about as thick and ooarssS65
an army blanket. The garments, each
fof them, big enough to hold two men.
The regulations provide they must be
worn outside the trousers. The men
wore the suits Saturday and were un-
mercifully guyed by the young women
rowing about the harbor. Partly for
this reason and partly because of the in
tense heat, the crew rebelled against the
guernseys yesterday and refused to wear
them. Capt. Goodwin telegraphed to
Washington TO know what he should do
about II and to-day received orders to
dismiss the men, which he has done.
The crew was one of the most efficient o.
the lakes. The order of discharge Gre
ated q great deal of indignation among
the vessel men.

While Hunting in British Columbia a Party

CHICAGO, ILL.,, June "a. E.
Rsxham of Victoria, b. c., who is now
in this city, had a remarkable experience
with Nehwitti Indians few weeks ago.
"During a hunting trip in British
Columbia - he said, 1--WE accidentally
run across tribe of Nehwitti Indians in
the midst of a cannibal feast. While
cannibalism is prohibited by the Do
minion government, so little effort is
made to carry out this law that the saw
ages still follow their old customs. When
we came upon the Indians they were
having q wild time. In the center was
an immense log fire, and about the blaze
were some half hundred savages
dressed and painted in the brightest
colors. There were several naked
dancers, and about dozen were beating
Accomplishments to their weird song.
Every little while the fire would flare up
and fresh meat would be thrown upon
the logs. Three or four DO les were
cooked and eaten while we were
there, and was afraid that
there was not enough to go
around and that some of us would be
chosen, but they seldom kill strangers.
These Indians are continually fighting
among themselves, and always save
three or four bodies ready for q feast.
When we were noticed one of the
braves pointed to US and denounced the
government for forbiddi them from
eating their dead. As he talked of bad
treatment some of the Indian savages
became excited, and more than once we
came near being thrown on the burning
logs. Two of the braves made a dash
for US, but the old chiefs restrained
them from violence. All night long the
Indians kept up their orgies, and when
morning came you CAM that we got

HANGED AT MEMPHIS.
One White Man and Three Colored Die at the
Ropes End-Convlcted for Murder.
Successful Execution.

MEMPHIS, TENN, June 2A.-Parker
Harris, Ed Carr and Harry Ballard,
colored, and Frank Prenish, white, were
hanged this morning, the colored men
taking the drop together at 11:24 and
the white man dropping alone at 1924.
Arrangements had been made to swing
the four together, but Prenish objected
to being hanged with the negroes, and
his desire to die alone was gratified. The
executions took place in the rear cor
ridor of the jail, and were wit
messed by about $50 persons, including
relatives and friends of the condemned,
the sheriff and members of the press.
The death warrants were read by the
sheriff at 1880, and ten minutes later
the procession started on its way to the
gallows. The three blacks filed upstairs
firmly and exhibited no signs of fear
throughout the trying ordeal. All con-
fessed their crimes and said they had
made their peace with God. The drop
fell at IL "a, and the necks of all three
minutes occurred and then Prenish, sup
ported by two deputy sheriffs, walked
and half staggered up the steps and on
to the drop. When asked If he had any
thing to say he attempted to speak,
but found his throat prevented him
speaking above a whisper, and he soon
gave it up. He was supplied with
whisky, and exhibited no. seacern. The

crop of this county was never better at
this season of the year, and the farmers
are all busy laying it by. One more
good rain would make the finest crop

Cotton is fine aud never was there q
better prospect for an immense yield than
now. The farmers are oil we'll up with
stheir work and are keeping it free from
grass. The acreage is slightly larger
than last year.
Your correspondent has noticed in
riding oyer the country several patches
of sugar cane, and it all seems to be
doing well. Upon inquiry it was found that
the crawfish lands of this country, which
are many, but never in patches larger
than two. or three acres, are peculiarly
adapted to the culture of sugar cane and
gives yield of from 500 to 800 gallons of
syrup of the finest quality, and many
farmers this year are raising, besides
their own s'hog and hominy, - syrup
and sugar besides.
The farmers are much gratifled to find

was thought to have been entirely killed,

ever. 1t furnishes the finest pasturage

that the farmers have to contend with
