Of the United States soldiery, since you
can't get a man who has much respect
for himself to join the army. Thirteen
dollars month and coart o rations do
not attract the average sensible Ameri-

the ranks of Uncle Sans troops are
kept up by foreigners.
Il remember once in Arkansas a SOL

knife by somebody. The soldier tried
to show that Tin Cup, an old Indian
that lived nearby. was the culprit. A
party Of troopers under o young Lieu
tenant went to his tepee to search for
the weapon. | was there myself.
After looking through his miserable
hut and examining the Indian, the
knife could not be found. Search the
squaw, the Lieutenant cried, and do
it right. She was anything but at
tractive, but she was the wife Of the
redskin and he loved her The sol

The Indians are not given fair

aud the exhibitions of morality on tho
frontier are such that they have no de-

acquainted with the facts will blame
them. The settlers in the West do
much to stir up trouble, so that the reds
will be gradually wiped out. They
want their land, and they look on it

SELLING OFF THE STILWELL LIBRARY.

The sale Of the library Of the late Benjamin NJ.
stllwell was begun yesterday at No. 43 Libery-st,
the Office Of James p SilO, auctioneer. The sale is
made to close the estate The library, which con-
ains upward Of 5000 volumes, Is for the most part
In the English language, and embraces extensive
collection Of the best authors on almost every sub
iect Both the morning and afternoon sessions Of
the sale were well attended. For the first day of
the sale the prices fair, although there was little
competition FL the bidding. The buyers were mostly
spectators and owners Of book stores. Outside of
those only Father J. H. Mclean Of ST. Peters Church.
Professor browne and Cyrus W. Field, jr. bought any
large number Of books.
Here are a few Of the books that brought the
highest prices: History OF Europe by Allison,
twenty three volumes S26 45i Birds OF America" by
Audubon. seven volumes S147; "Quadupeds Of North
America" by Audubon and Bachman, three volumes
500; British Authors 103 volumes $50 90. There
did not seem TO be any demand for cid and rare
books and consequently they brought comparatively
poor prices. The books which the most Is ex-
pected 10 be realized have not yet been reached Yes
erdays sale brought about $4,000 The collection is
valued at $4,000.

THEY NAY DEMAND JURY TRIALS UPON The
QUESTION OF PAST DAMAGES.
The Elevated Railroad Company has gained us
point concerning the trial Of the cases of property
owners against It before Iuries The company re-
quested that there be jury trials to determine the
amount OF past damages. The attorneys iOr inc
company declared that they had II right to demand
fury trials under an act Of the Legislature passed az
the last session. The lawyers for the property owners
warmly opposed the motion. Judge O'Bren, III Inc
Supreme Court, Chambers yesterday handed down
decision In favor Of the contention Of the railroad com
pany. This decision in full is as follows:
after consultation with all Of my brethren. have
concluded that under the amendment OF 1901 TO sec
ton go of the code Qaws 1891 chapter 20e the de-
PENDANTS are entitled as "A matter Of right TO jury
trial upon the issue as to past damages. AS this
Issue must be sent TO jury it is emlnently proper
that the question OF fec value should be passed upon
at the same time and In the same manner This will
be an economy OF time and will result in harmon-
Gus disposition Of the main issue in the case. As
matter of discretion, therefore, this issue will also be
sent to jury The parties will therefore formulate
the two issues first as to fee value and second as to
past damages. In appropriate manner. No other
isses should be formulated, and none other Will be
sent to a jury. To the end that this practice shall
not delay the plaintiffs the order will provide for the
vember and other cases VIII be placed upon that
calendar until all such issues are fully disposed or"
There are about $50 cases now OH the special Term
calendar which will be affected By this decision.
