THE CAMP GRANT MASSACRE.
Horrible Atrocities that Aroused tn
 Whites to Terrible yengeance.

Horrible Atrocities that Aroused the
 Whites to Terrible vengeance.
 From the Globe Silver Belt.
 The story of the massacre of Indians at old Camp Grant in 1871 is being re- hashed, with view of firing the hearts and minds of northern men, women and children against Arizonans. The com muncation in the St. Louis ReIuJlic of December 3l, 1890, is wholly ex parte and so highly colored as to convey the impression that the Indians to whom it refers were guiltless ofany ofiense against the whites. There is recorded evidence in the Congressional files of 1870 pre- sented by Hon. Richard Mccormick, that within few months of that year IA whites were murdered by the savages that were killed at Camp Grant the iol- lowing year. It is also historically true that from 1863 to 1874, 800 resident whites of Arizona were ruthlessly slain by Indians. The immediate cause of the raid upon Gozya's camp at Fort Grant in 1871 was of such nature as to horrify Christian nation, and it was that deed that moved the people of Pima county to paralyze the power that
 
 uncertain.
 It is we'll that the story of that crime should be related for the information of those who sympathize with the Apaches and believe they are the victims of the white mans greed and deception. A man by the name of Wooster, who lived with his wife on the Santa Cruz river near Tubac. .in Pima County, was at work in his placita, or court, common to all adobe houses in early days (so con structed as a protection against Indian surprises) when India ns, by the aid of a notched stick used as ladder, scaled the adobe wall of the placita and shot the unsuspecting Wooster. The fiends then entered the house where the preg- nant wife was busying herself with household duties, seized and after violat- ing her person, with their knives dis emboweled their victim and brutally extinguished the spark of life in the yet unborn babe.
 The records of the United States Dis trict Court held in Tucson will show that l08 persons engaged in the raid were tried and acquitted of the OHense. King Woolsey and his men were compli- mented by the Arizona Legislature for their participation in the affair at Bloody Tanks, now in Gila County.
 Lieutenant Whitman, who com manded at Camp Grant at the time the massacre occurred, was relieved April, 1872. The Indians importuned General 0. 0. Howard, spoke of their attach ment 70 Lieutenant Whitman, and asked that he might be restored to them, but the General, regarding .he Lieutenant the fifth wheel of the mili- tary wagon, denied their request.

TO- DAYS DEMONSTRATION.
The Labor Parade Promises to Be a
Brilliant Affair.
All Arrangements CompIete-The Lit
erary Exercises ut the Plaza
The Ball at the Capitol.
This is Labor Dav.

IhlS IS Labor Day.
The Federated Trades and all the sep
Grated labor organizations which COM
pose it, as well as those which have not
affiliated, have completed arrangements
for a demonstration this afternoon that is
expected to surpass anything and every
thing of the kind ever seen in Sacra-
mento.
AS has been previously stated in these
columns the march of the local wage
oarners will be considerably augmented
by the participation of the Rocklin
granite-cutters and labor organizations
from other neighboring towns.
A LONG LINE.
Many thousand tOilers will be in line,
and Grand Marshal Hantzman's abilities
Will be taxed severely in handling such
an immense body. But the details have
been so well attended to, the aids being
all assigned and thoroughly instructed as
to their respective duties, that much of
the difficulty that usually attends such
demonstrations will be lessened.
The work Of forming the long column
viii begin at l:30 o'clock, so that the
procession can move promptly at 2:3O
o'clock-the hour announced. The ad-
vance of police will form on NJ. west side
of Sixth, facing east. The Grand Mar
shal and aids will form on left of police.
The first division will form on NJ, right
resting on Sixth, extending west. The
second division will form on Sixth, right
resting on NJ, extending north. The
third division will form on Sixth, right
resting on NJ, extending south.
The route OF march viii be: NJ to
Tenth, to K, to Second, to }, to Tenth,
countermarching on Tenth, l and Ninth
around the Plaza.
LITERARY EXERCISES.
The literary exercises to be held at the
Plaza at the conclusion Of the parade are
expected to be very interesting. The
President of the Day, c. NJ. Harrison
will make the Introductory address.
Then there will be addresses by Rev. Mr..
! Tindall, and Rev. J. L. Levy Music bv
an orchestra will be interspersed
throughout the exercises.
The days celebration Will conclude
with grand ball to be held in the even
ing at the Assem- bly, chamber.
Business throughout the city will be
suspended during the afternoon. The
railroad shops and freight sheds close at
noon, thus giving the employees an op-
portunity to participate in the parade.
All of the wholesale houses, factories and
other places where large numbers of per-
sons are employed will also close at noon.
Saloons will be closed from to O'Clock.
Thus 1t Will be seen that the commit
tees which had charge of the arrange
ments have performed their work well,
for which they are to be congratulated.
At a meeting of the Federated Trades
Saturday evening they all made their
final reports, and were discharged with
votes of thanks.
THE BUTCHERS.
The Butchers Union held meeting
last evening, and it was decided that aii
shops should be closed after O'Clock this
afternoon.

A STRAY SHAFT.
love Pitched a Wild Ball of Lightning
on Saturday,
Which Cuts Queer Caper and Then
Shivers a Tree = Mr.. and Mrs.
Chas. Schreiner's Close Call.

This vicinity was visited by quite a
shower of rain on Saturday morning be-
tween and 10 o'clock, accompanied by
several vivid flashes of lightning and
sharp claps of thunder. 1t was apparent
to persons in the city that bolt Of light
ming must have struck somewhere near
by, as the thunderclap was close to the
earth and sounded as sharp as volley
from field battery.
Half an hour later Charles Schreiner
and wife arrived in town from their home
about two miles this side of FreepOrt,
and they related curious, not to say eX-
citing, experience on the road with stray
bolt of lightning.
They had reached a point in the road
opposite the Catholic cemetery and near
the city limits. when q bolt of concen-
trated, double-distilled electricity came
slanting down from above and shot across
their wagon. Mr.. Schreiner occupied the
front seat, and his wife the back one, and
| the lightning shaft passed right between
them and came in contact with q locust
tree by the roadside, which it shivered
into Splinters.
The lightning passed SO close TO Mrs.
Schreiner'S face that the end of her nose
was slightly scorched. The shock had Il
peculiar effect upon the travellers, but did
them no injury. They say they have,
howeves, had all the lightning they want.
There was little left Of the tree but
splnters, and many persons went out
from the city during the day and yester-
day to view to spot. The stricken tree
was on the ranch of B. l.. Edwards.
a workman employed on the Brock
way ranch was also stunned by bolt of
lightning which entered the ground near
him.
OBSERVER BARWICK'S REPORT.
The Government weather reports show
that the rainfall on Saturday, during the
thunder and lightning storm, between
9:Z7 and 1910 \. NJ, amounted to 06 of an
inch, making that much for this season
as against a sprinkle to an equal date last
year.
This is the second time, in record of
fifteen years, that the first rain in Sep
tember was accompanied by thunder and
| Lightning. The other was in 1892, on the
18th of the month. The first rain in Sep
tember has occurred earlier than this on
but two other occasions, and those were
in 1888 and 1887, on the I'd and 9TH respect
lively.
The following data shows the dates of
the first rain in September, from 1877 to
1891, also the total rainfall for September,
and the total for the following season. 1t
will be seen that early rains are some
| times followed by wet and sometimes by
dry seasons. 1t is therefore no criterion
to judge of the coming season is percipita-
ton by the dates Of the first rains i'll Sep
| tember.

Settled it With Fists.

There was quite rumpus at Fifth and
K streets last evening at about o'clock
Mike Farley and Charles Greenlee, both
of whom are in the heavyweight class,
had dispute over some trivial matter
and proceeded to settle it with their fists
to the delight of a large crowd of men
and boys, who had gathered to see the
other at a great rate, when Officer Shell
lars, Special Talbot and Deputy Consta-
bic Swift took a hand in the affair and
took both Of the belligerents to jail
They will have to answer to charges of
disturbing the peace in the Police Court
this morning.
