FORSYTHE SUSPENDED.
The Colonel Relieved From
Command on Account of the
Killing of Women and Children
at Wounded Knee.
Noble PigeOnholes Gen. Miles
Recommendations
Col. ForsYthe Suspended.

WAsHINGToN, Jan. 5.-Col Forsythe
was suspended today for allowing bis
troops TO shoot women and children at
the battle of Wounded Knee. Con
siderable criticism against his suspension
is heard in the war department. Ii seems
to be directed against the policy of re-
lieving AT officer during the progress of a
campaign, instead of waiting until after
the trouble Is settled. As to the charge
that Col. Sorsythe allowed his men to
kill women aud children it is stated that
1t would be impossible. in the hurry and
confusion of the unexpected fight aud
subsequent STAN pede and pursuit, TO de-
tect the sex of the Sioux. One officer
remarked:
1T would be preposterous TO say that
1t Is necessary, in an Indian skirm,sh. to
stop firing long enough to find out iast
what sort OF All Indian you are
shooting at Women and men look
very much alike in their blanket
costume, and the former are quite as fierce
fighters as the men. A Sioux squaw is
as bad an enemy as a buck at times. Lit
tie boys, too, can shoot quite as we'll
as their fathers, and what a specta-
Gle it would be for the soldier, on seeing
a ten-year-old pointing a loaded gun at
him with as true an aim as the best
marksman in the army, u stop his ad
vance and cry out. My son. you must
drop that gun. for YOU are a minor and |
am not allowed to hurt you"
Another officer said: AT this rate the
Sioux troubles will grow to be Just as bad
as the events of the first three years of
the war, when every officer with an indie
pendent command had not only an enemy
In front of him. but a court martial be-
hind him"
Still another officer said it was a grave
error to order the relief of Col. Forsytbe
at this stage of the proceedings, and thus
hold up a warning finger to overv colonel
in the little army around Pine Ridge, to
tell them that the death OF each Sioux
must be explained.

LONDON, Jan. THE vacancy in the
representation of H~artlepool, caused by
the death OF the Unionist member, Rich
ardson, will be keenly contested by both
parties. The result will be of exceptional
importance, as it will prove in what de
gree the Irish dissensions have affected
the English electorate. Bassetlaw af-
forded no such test, as il was not con-
tested in 1856, the year of the home rule
split in the Liberal party. Richardson
was elected in 1885 az a Liberal by a ma
iority ofover 1000. In 1856 he deserted
Gladstone, but was reelected BY the help
Of the Tories and l.2O0 Liberal seeeders,
of whom about one-halt voted for kim and
the other halt kept away from the polls.
Judged by experience, had this election
taken place before the O'Shea divorce
trial the conversion of the d~issentient
Liberals would have secured the defeat of
the Tories probably by 200 majority. A
Liberal victory now seems to be out of the
question, aud speculation is confined 10
the Tory Unionist majority, which is vari-
ously estimated at from 300 to 200. In
1886 it was 912.

Vegetables of all available kinds
should always be found upon our tables,
as they have a direct chemical and re-
medal action upon our bodies. Onions
and asparagus are particularly recon-
mended for rheumatism and rheumatic
govt; ~caulifower has a tonic effect upon
the system, and boiled peas contain 90
per cent. of nutriment, which is almost
equal to the value of wheat bread. Po-
tatoes are certainly a very desirable part
of meals, and lettuces, carrots and
cabbages would be much easier digested
but for the artificial methods of cooking
and seasoning which are employed by
the modern civilized cook.
Vegetables should never be put into
the cellar, as many of them contain
acids which will absorb the poison of the
ground air, and, If eaten, will prove very
unhealthy, and II allowed to remain will
rapidly decompose and fill the air which
arises to the upper rooms with a poison
that will undoubtedly cause much mis-
chief. Potatoes should not be exposed
to the sun, but kept in some dry place
where the light and air can always strike
them.-Halls Journal.

ton had been taken on the recommended

pose the transfer The secretary spoke
with some earDestness of the reports that
had been in circulation recently to the eff

ing condition, and that the pending trou-
BILE grew out OF the fact that the govern
ment lad not kept its agreement with
the Sioux, but, ON the contrary, had al
ready begun 10 cut Town the rations In
violation OF all treat, obligations. The
secretary denounced these as
unqualiiedly false. The story OF starya
AAOu ouAbbk ShO OhOhA was u uuIt laDTlCa
ton. FoHten long years the government,
in ful6llment OF its treaty obligations, had
been feeding the Sioux in idleness. Some
of them, however, were thrifty farmers
and good %citizens, but a large portion
were a thriitless and INDECENT set, per
fectly willing to spend their time in idle
ness and in finding fault with the govern
ment on every Conceivable pretext.
The treaty oil 1877, the secretary said,
obligated the government to furnish them
with a certain amount of food, clothing.
implements. horses. cat lie. etc, etc until
they should become self-supporting. After
ten years elapsed, duriug which time the
government spent millions OF dollars with

BIRMINdHAM, Ala, Jan. 5.-Sheriff
Smith and strong posse of well-armed
men reached Bessemer. twelve miles from
this city, tonight just in time to save a
negro murderer from a horrible death at
the hands of a mob. Two weeks ago Sam
Arnold, a negro, entered the tent of two
white men employed at the Bessemer pipe
works and beat their brains out with a
club, took what money they had and fled.
Yesterday Arnold was captured near
Meridian, Miss, and last night two men
started with him to this city. de was
bound hand and foot and his guards fell
asleep. When ten miles below Bessemer,
and while the train was running fifty
miles an hour, the negro suddenly leaped
through an open window. By the time
the officers got back to the place where he
leaped off he was gone. The negro was
badly hurt by the fall. however, and today
was captured within a mile OF the place
where he made the daring leap. A mob
was waiting at Bessemer last night to take
him from the train, and when he was
brought there this afternoon it did not
take long TO get the same men together
again. The mob had secured the mattress
on which ArDold's victims lay, when he
murdered them. They had saturated the
mattress with oil and were going to burn
the negro alive. Sheriff Smith had been
sem for by the Bessemer officers, and with
a strong posse he arrived just in time to
save the negro. Most of the mob were
uuarmed, and deemed it prudent not to
attack the well armed officers, most of
whom had seen service in the defense of
the jail in this city during the bloody
Halves riot in December, 1888.

Fort WORTH, Tex, Jan. "a SEN
sational shooting occurred on the main
street effort Worth at 4 o'clock this at
t%ernoon, and as a result Ben Mccullough
will probably lose his life at the hands of
Nora Gilbert,a girl of 81 years. The girl
and Mccullough had been very intimate
for many years, and a year and a half ago
she gave birth to a boy, which she
charges upon Mccullough. On New
Years night Mccullough was married to
one Pearl Redford, who a fortnight preyi-
GUS had been granted a divorce from her
husband Greer lrimble. When Nora
hilbert heard of this she determined that
Mccullough should never live with his

cooked revolver in a paper bag and
started out to look for him. She went to

two shots entered his back, between the
shoulders, not an inch apart. He ran
and she pursued, firing Two more shots,
which pierced his clothing. He stumbled
upon his hands and knees. She stood
over him, swapping the weapon again aud

policeman carried her away. She has
not been allowed bail pending the result
of the wounds. She takes the matter
coolly, complaining because the revolver

An interview with a citizen of Ridg-
way, Elk county, develops some facts
of interest concerning the tanning in
dustry. Ridgway is the centre of the
hemlock bark industry of northern Penn
sylvania. THE hemlock industry of the
state, said he. sis about 10 by $50 miles
in extent, and the tanneries located IL
that district have extra facilities for Sc
curing bark. The cost of hemlock bari,
at Ridgway is about s. per cord. The
%tanneries located at that point consume
about 10000 cords q year. Large aunn-
titles of their products fine ready markets
in Europe" Said one of the leading tan.
ners:
The cost of bark transportation has
become of late years & very important

dustry. Bark is bulky and cost of
transportation long distances adds very
rnatoIi"ny- to the ensf of leather. Penn
g%'lvania has advantages over New Eng

WASHINGTON, Jan. 5.-The action of
the ena in displacing the elections bill
with the financial bill was a complete sur
prise to the friends of the former meas
ure. and several Republican silver sena-
tors, who voted for the motion, say it was
without prior knowledge on their part.
So far as oan be learned the arrangement
to displace the silver bill was net def
nitely effected until some time after the
senate met, though there had been some
consultation prior u to-day on the
subject. 1t is understood that Stewart
and Teller were the principal movers
in the scheme. The democrats are rejoic-
ing over the displacement of the election
bill and think it has received a death blow.
The financial bill must now be displaced
by a direct vote and has the coign of

ions bill. 1t has the right OF way. Oue

GREEN TABLE VICTIMS
Horrible State of Things in
Monte Carlo.
A Suicides Body Thrown From
a Window.
Nora Gilbert Shoots the Man
Who Betrayed Her.

LONDON, Jan. 5.-Gahgnais Messea-
ger. of Paris, has unearthed a horrible
state Of things in Monte Carlo. The COR
respondent Of that paper has discovered
several suicides in a few days, all due to
the victims having lost their last sou at
the gaming table. The method of deal
ing with these suicides is interesting. A
lew days ago n man named G. i. Bour
took his " life after losing his money.
His mistress applied to the head of the
Casino tor sufficient money to leave the
place. She was given 400 francs, upon
consideration that she should lave
Monte Carlo and give up all Bour's pa
pers. This she did, and although these
papers showed who he was and who
we're his relatives, they were not coiumu-
nIcated with aud he was buried IN the
potters held. A day or TWO after his
death a young Englishman informed a
Gdh0hdRt correspondent that he had
witnessed the suicide of a man in the Ca
slno and that the attendants had thrown
the body out OF the window and carried it
away later. The correspondent found
two new graves in the suicide part of the
potter's field, showing that still another
victim to the gaming table had taken his
own life. All this goes to show that sui.
cides in Monte Carlo are not registered in
any board of vital statistics, and that
their number is far in excess of any
dreamed Of by the general public. Leo
pold Graham, manager of Gdh0ndni, IN
formed me that most and
newspaper correspondents are subsidized
by the authorities of the Casino at Monte
Carlo, IN order to keep the awful death
record away from the world. His paper
has been approached with this end in
view. he says, but he will endeavor to let
the world know the tragic results of the
gaming passions at this place.
