RUN OVER AND KILLED.
Two Colored Men Killed on the Thun

Two Colored Men Killed on the Thun =
derbolt Road Near Bonaventure.
Robert Green, a colored man of IS or
90 years of age, and his son Daniel. aged
about 80 years. were struck by a train
on the bridge near Bonaventure at $50
O'Clock last night, and instantly killed. the
wheels OF the rear coach passing over their
bodies and frightfully mangling them.
The train was an extra one of five coaches,
drawn by an engine of the City and Sabur-
ban line, and put on to help the regular
Thunderbolt train handle the crowds which
attended the races at Doyle's Driving PARK
1t was through train that did not stop at
Bonaventure and the Catholic cemetery, as
the regular train does.
Mr.. Owens, the engineer Of the train, says
he looked back on approaching Bonaven-
ture and Conductor Otto sgnaled him to go
ahead. and no stop was made. When within
Is or 100 yards Of the narrow bridge he
noticed four persons on it, and it appeared
TO him as if they had met and were in con-
yersatiOn. There were three men and a
boy. The engineer says that the men on
the bridge had only ten or twelve feet to
run to get off the bridge, and could easily
have got out Of harms way. He says he
sounded alarm whistles such as are known
as cattle whistles, and when he
saw the men were making no effort to get
of the bridge he reversed brakes, although
ne felt satisfied that it was too late. One Of
the men and the boy squatted down and
thus escaped injury, but Green and his son
stood with their backs pressed hard against
the boarded up side of the bridge and were
struck by the engine and the first car and
knocked down, and the rear coach ran over
them. He says he Stacked up and asked if
any one was hurt and was answered in the
negative, and the train came on to the city
but when he saw blood on the wheel, he
knew there had been an accident.
Coroner Dixon was notified an dwent out
last night and viewed the remains, which
were brought in later.
The Greens lived in East Savannah, and
were gardeners, and in the employe of Thos.
H Enright at Thunderbolt, and were on
the way home from their work OF the day
when the fatal accident occurred.

" From the Neio York World. '-
ST.. PAUL, April 26.-Gen. Ruger, com
mander of the department. of Dakota, to-
day received a telegram from Maj Carroll
of Fort Custer, Mon, stating that the In
dams Of the Tongue river agency were
greatly excited over the expected appear
ance of a savior. The case presents many
strange and interesting features. The ac-
counts that can be gathered of the coming
of this Indian Christ are very fragmentary
but the belief is thoroughly grounded in
the minds Of the Indians, and, under the
leadership of their medicine men, they have
worked a religious revival and are conf
IDENTIFY waiting the advent.
Some time ago the Indian interpreter at
the Cheyenne and Arrapahoe agency in the
Indian Territory wrote in personal letter
to the interpreter at the Tongue River
agency that: "Cheyennes and Arrapahoes
here are greatly excited about Christ
coming in among some of the northern
tribes of Indians. The Arrapahoes have
been getting letters from northern ARA
pahoes in regard to it. My friends here
wish me to ask what there Is about
it and what they know. They
sent two CT their young men to the Sbo-
shone agency, in Idaho. recently, TO find out
turned yet"
The Tongue river interpreter made an in
vestigation among the Indians there and re-
ported as follows: That this Christ is ia
the mountains and he wants all the Indians
to come to him; that he will put them be-
hind him, and having all the whites before
him will roll the world over on the whites
and destroy them. The Savior is white
man. This information was impaired by
Indians at the Shoshone agency.
In addition the Indians say that this
savior showed some scars ON his hands
and feet and spear wound in his side. He
wanted all the Indians to come to him, Civ
ing up their firearms and using only bows
and spears Where this white man lives is
near the sun, and the earth is SO hot that it
burns the feet.
Gen. Ruger says that 1t is not unlikely
this report originated from tho teachings
Of missionaries, which the Indians have
mixed with their mythology. The Indian
medicine men have all taken up the new
religion and are making themselves very
popular. One of the difficult things to ex-
plain. however, is the wide distribution Of
the myth, that seems to have been brought
out independently at two places over 900
miles apart. In order to prevent trouble
that might arise from some white man pre-
tending to be the Christ going among the
Indians and making trouble, Gen. Ruger
has detailed Maj. Carroll of Fort Custer to
proceed at once with cavalry troop to the
Tongue river agency and thoroughly inves-
tigate the matter.

AT THE COURTS.

Gossip Picked Up Hero and There in
the Court Rooms.
In the superior court yesterday Judge
Falligant rendered decision ON the motion
of Hon. F. G. duBignon that a demand for
trial at this term of the court in the
Maurice A. Buttimer case be entered on
the minutes. The court ordered the de-
mand entered, with an explanation of the
facts, remitting the determination Of the
effect of the demand to such time as that
question may arise. The facts recited in
the order comprise the principal details in
the mistrial at the present term, Mir.
duBignon, representing the defendant,
Claiming that mistrial is not trial,
the state holding the contrary opinion.
