Benteen to come on quick; there vas big village ahead. These two communications were the last that passed between any soul of Custer's party and any known survivor, excepting one, from the time Reno parted company with them.
 The exception was an Indian scout, who served Custer as such, and during the fight disguised himself as Sioux and escaped, His story is corroborated in part by the tes- timony of Kill Eagle, who was one of the hostiles, and by the position of the bodies of Custer and his followers, as found. It appears that Custer followed Reno to the point where the latter crossed Little Big Horn, and kept on down the east bank of the stream four miles, thinking that Reno's attack would fall upon one end of the will lage and that he would attack the other. The high bluff of the river prevented his attacking where he wished, and when finally he reached ford the Indians met him and drove him back from the stream. Custer then dismounted his men and gradually retired in the face of superior numbers, seizing the most defensible posi- tions he could find. For several hours these were defended, the officers and men falling in the order in which they stood in the ranks. The Indians charged again and again, and Custer went about among his men animating them until he fell very near the last,
 The scout stated that when the fight seemed hopeless he went to Custer and of fered to help him to escape; that the gal. lant soldier thought a moment, with char acteristic boise of the head, then, seeing the Indians pouring down for fresh at tack, waved the tempter away and joined a knot of men to fight his last. The story told by Kill Eagle is to the effect that an attack was made on the southern end of the Indian camp by troops from across the river Reno), but was soon repulsed, the troops recrossing to a bluff, where they were joined by other troops (Benteen and McDougaD. The hostiles returned to the village after repulsing this at tack on the south, and were immediately summoned to meet troops coming across the river on the east (Custer). The war riors all deserted the village and crossed the stream to fight. After several hours they returned, stating that the soldiers had all been killed. Then they crossed the stream again to the hill and attacked the troops there (Reno, Benteen and McDou- gaD.
 The movements of Custer after he made an intellectual attempt to cross Little Big Horn at the ford were indicated by the positions of the bodies found by Gen. Terry when he reached the mOurnful scene. Three-fourths of a mile from the stream lay Calhoun's company in an irregular line They had fought facing the river. A mile distant lay Capt. keogh's company, facing back toward Calhoun's position. A mile

Taxed While In JaiI.

A peculiar case was that of John Gray, who was up in the criminal court for receiving stolen goods. Attorney A. E. Goss had just secured a verdict of not guilty for him, and he was stepping from the box when he was remanded for desertion. It seems he had pre- viously been ordered to pay his wife $2 a week alimony, He was in jai, month waiting trial on the larceny charge, and 1t was for his failure to pay the alimony during that time that he was held for desertion. .-Pittsburg Post.

 and about II o'clock Custer signaled Reno to rejoin him, and an hour later instructed him to move forward and charge. The re- call of Reno from the center made wide interval between the right and left wings under Custer and Benteen, and ss Reno went ahead in direct advance of Custer the gap remained unolosed. Benteen went on, aS ordered, an hour and half, and not finding Indians closed in to the right, TO- crossed the little valley, and regained the main trail in rear of Custer,
 The column was thus moving in four bodies on the same route in the following order: Reno, Custer, Benteen, McDougal. Reno dashed ahead, reached Little Big Horn and crossed, hearing nothing further From Custer, Benteen, after recrossing the llttie valley to the main route, met a man oi Custer's column returning with an order to McDougal to hurry forward the pack ualn.

sideration:

states, 2,207 Chinese, 100 Japanese, and
S207 Indians should be added to the sum of
the white and colored population. Sew
eral tables are given, which show the
movements of the colored element of the
population during the last h~alf-century.
An inspection of the table makes it evil
dent, says the bulletin, that there has been
no extended movement of this element
since the time of the Civil war. Indeed,
with the exception of the District of CO.
lumbia, the border States appear to have
lost, rather than gained, ami during the
last decade there becomes p%erceptible a

Mr.. Florence's Alligator.

HE IGNORES ITS ARRIVAL, THINKING 1T
. AN ~APRIL-FooL JOKE.
William ]. Florence, the actor, stays At
the Fifth Avenue hotel when in town, but
this week he is playing in Chicago. A
big express wagon backed up In front of
the Fifth Avenue hotel yesterday and the
men started to unload q crate addressed to
Mr.. Florence. The crate was sixteen feet
long and was made of LEVY .imbers. 1t
was marked Fish" and c,ntained q live
alligator. The "bird" extended the full
length of the box and his tail doubled
back several feet, 50 that he must have
been at least twenty feet long. The crate
was billed from Savannah, Ca, and with
its contents, weighed $40 pounds. The
express charges we're $14 IS. The. hotel
peop.e refused to receive the animal, and
1t was taken back to the Adams express
company's Office, on wenty third street
where it still remains.
Mr.. Hitchcock, of the Fifth Avenue
hotel. telegraphed to Mr.. florence: "Six
hundred pound alligator to your address;
charges, $14 95. Shall we receive it and
pay charges7" But Mr. Florence evidently
thought the telegram an April fool joke
and did not reply.
1t was impossible last night to learn
who sent the gator, but Mr.. Florence's
friends thought that Matt O'Brien, tho
Southern manager of the Adams express
company, who lives in Columbus, Ca, had

a Me, ciful Elephant.

The favorite elephant Of the Grsno
Vizier, under Rsjah Dowlah, was the hero
of q noble deed. This great nsbob had
arranged for a mighty hunt In the
neighborhood of Lucknow, where the
game was rather plentiful. The prepa
rations being completed, and a train o
Indian nobility assembled, the procession
of hunters began to move off the field.
After passing through ravine, the gor-
geous sportsmen entered q meadow, which
was covered with sick people, who wer,
lying exposed to get the benefit Of the
pure and fresh air, and they were so dis
tributed as to obstruct the course of the
beasts of burden. Rajah Dowlah was in
tent upon feeding his cruel eyes with tn.
sight that the msngling bodies of the
miserable creatures would produce BY
compelling the large elephants to trampl.
them under foot. The Grand Vizier rod.

The driver to goad him on, and he went al

spot Of the indisposed people. though in b
trot, the sagacions animal stopped shor'
before the first invalid The Vizier cursed
nim, the driver goaded him and the Daoot
cried, "Stick him In the ear !" All. how
was in vain. More humane than his
superior, the elephant stood firm, and re-
fused to violate his better feeling. At
length, seeing the poor c, creatures helpless
and unable to move themselves out of thu
way, he took up the FIRST with his trunl
and laid him gently down again out of his
,ath. He did the same with the second
.nd third, and so on, until he had made =

could pass without going injury to any one
