HE LOST THE TRAIL.
A Yankees Adventure in tho Now, Yer
New. South.

A Yankees Adventure in tho Now, VERY
New, South.
The prevalent practice of building
cities on paper, where more substantial
material is wanting, seems to have
reached Its height in a certain locality
In the South, which was recently visited
by Maine man, who relates, in the
Lewiston (Me.) Journal, an amusing in
oident Of his trip.
The city" is at famous railway
junction, and high expectations are en-
tertained Of its future greatness, es-
pecially by the original "city COM
papy." On Its map may be seen mag
nihcent avenues intersected by broad
streets, with hero and there spacious
parks, beautiful fountains, etc.
1t happened during his stay that the
man from Maine had occasion to 90 in
search Of . person on q dark night.
Being unfamiliar with the s.oity," he
WAS accompanied by one Of its original
fathers. With = lantern to throw light
on their path they started. After walk
Ing short distance the guide, with
Wow communicating instruc rion as
we'll IS agreeable information, stopped
tn tho neigh borhood Of a group of tower
Ing pines. Swinging the lantern SLOWLY
around, -, said:
Here we are, stranger, right on Mag
nolia avenue-a fine street, one hundred
feet wide.'
Proceeding little way further, he re-
marked:
This 10 Broad street-sn excel-
lent thoroughfare for business purposes.
Just beyond Is Highland avenue. on
which are fine sites for private resi-
dences."
The stranger began looking for these
ntes, but owing to the darkness was un-
able to distinguish them. After stum-
bling on, up and down ravines, over
stumps and other obstacles peculiar to
more than one Southern metropolis, the
guide again stopped and remarked, with
some hesitation:
This, sir, is-ahI-let me see-I-I

The claims made by Kemmler was
that to be put to death in this way would
be cruel punishment, and, therefore,
not constitutional. We would not I'M
derstand that the court attempts to say
whether it is cruel or not, but, rather,
that it assumes that the legislature is to
be the judge. If this method Of execu-
ton proves to be more cruel than hang
ing, with all the horrors which have fol
lowed the work of nervous, inexpert
and bungling men, we shall sincerely
pity the man who is to be executed. The
law which shuts out the representatives
Of the newspapers from executions can
hardly prevent the public from finding
out how the new law works. If the ma
chinery works well, and proves to be
able to do what it claims for it, execu.
ton by electricity will become tho gen.
eral method before many years.

DISRUPTION OF FRIENDSHIP

How an Intimacy of Years Was Brought

Two women uptown, who havo been

and the friends of both arc ranged on
one sido or the other of tho controversy
The cause of 1t all is cook. Mrs. A.

she appeared before her mistress and

charged with her treachery she coolly
insisted that she had every right in tho
world to hiro another woman's cook

Mrs. A. fairly gasped at the heresy.

He KILLED THE MULE.

crnor BushyhsaA.
Bushyhead. one of the members Of
the Cherokee commission, Ia in Wash-
ngton. and many one, says the New
York Tribune, passes the Indian chief
without knowing he is an Indian. Ho
Is tall, brown of skin, but has tho feat
ares Of the Caucasian race, and 1t H.
said that he is not more than one eighth
indian.
He married some years ago niece Of
Senator Butler, of South Carolina, who
had Gone out to- Tnhlequah as q teacher.
A good story is told Of him whom he was
Governor Of the Cherokee Nation. The
Cherokees are the most civilized of all
the Indian tribes and one of their laws
s in favor of prohibition. The law Of
the United States is that no one shall
give or sell fire-water to an Indian, but
the Cherokee legislators go further and
prohibit the bringing of it into tho Ter
ritory.
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 q squaw, and,
strange as 1t may seem, was more an
Indian than any native. He used to
orate by the hour over his forge at the
wrongs Of the red mon, and one OF his
tavorite perorstions was:
"We have been patrsecuted by the
white man, dhriven from our homes in
Georgia over mountains an valleys, an
our noble Inheritance stholen away
from u.s.
Mike frequently delivered himself Of
this and the moro dre-water he had In
him the more fannel-mouthed and I'M
Indian was his brogue. He and Bushy-
head were great friends, and one day
when the Governor was at the court
house presiding over tho meeting Of the
Legislature the squaw-man appeared
and beckoned imperiously.
| Come here" he whispered, 'Oi've
something to tell you. There's dead
mule in town" A dead mule'' is West
ern slang for. a keg Of whisky.
''Give me g dollar" continued Mike,
IAN I'll buy bottle an kccp it in the
shop until yez can DO afturr comm to
lhrink it,
Tho Governor gave the money and,
half an hour later, dcputizing some one
to take his place, he mado his way to
the forge. From afar off he heard the
inspiring strains Of the Irish Washer
man. and rs no drew near he recog-
nized the oft-ropeated refrain, "Och,
hone, Widow Machree, ooh hone, Wild
DIV Mechrce," tho melody stoutly main
tanned by en- anvil chorus. Rushing in,
10 was confronted by tho hilarious
blacksmith, whom he at once asked for
his share of the dead mule"
'Bo aisy, Guvncr," cried the Irish
Indian, there's only two heels loft, an
I'll drink that, as the laws agin' givin'
IN Indian whisky"
And no swallowed the rest, the Gov
ornor Of the Cherokee Nation not daring
TO prevent him.

The Kemmler case has become a nota-
BILE one in New York. kemmler was
convicted of murder a long time ago,
and, if he had not been of a controver-
sial turn of mind, would have been dead
before this. He was the first to receive
q sentence to be executed by electricity.
and he raised the question. which all
Americans raise as to any legislation
which does not suit them, that the law
which authorized electrocutions was ul-
constitutional. Then he began, through
his lawyers, series of appeals, such as
are possible only under the New York
system OF courts, a single Judge, and
then = full court, and then anothe,
court passing upon the question. It ha.
finally been decided by the New York
court Of appeals that the statute which
authorized this method Of executing
death sentences Is constitutional, and
Kemmler will be put out Of the world
by the new method for there is no
further appeal possible.
