GIVEN THE DETECTIVES ON UNI

BY Ladies who Say He Was the
Burglar who Entered Their
House at an Early
Hour Today.

This morning between 2 and 8
o'clock, the residence of Mrs. Geo.
Roemer, on Avenue G, was entered by
a burglar and a gold watch and a ten
dollar gold piece were stolen. Mrs.
Roemer is living with another lady
named Lynde cker, and 1t seems, one
of them awoke and saw and recog-
nized the burglar, who was in the
room. The police were notified and
after conference with Mrs. Roemer,
warrant was sworn out by
Detective Van Ripper before
Justice Adam, against H. H.
Wandell, a tall dark haired man who
has for some months engaged in the
intelligence and employment agency
business on corner of Commerce and
Corcoran streets, next to the Alamo
Insurance company's office. The war
rant charged him with the crimes of
burglary and theft, and it was served
and Wandell was put in the county
Jail. A search warrant was
issued but when the officers
returned To serve it, every
thing that could be put under lock
and key was locked up tightly by
Mrs. Wandell, who has been his
partner and able coadjutor in his in
telligence business.
Wandell, of course, denied the truth
of the charges, but it Is understood,
when brought to face Mrs. Roemer
she positively identified him as the
man who was In the house when she
awoke and saw him, early this morn
ing. She remembers him fully as
being the man who called at
the house the other day and
left his business card, soliciting pat
ronage The Wandell's lived in a

INDIAN FIGHTS 70 A FINISH.
bules Under which Ono of tho Prinoi-
pals Is Sure to he Knocked Ont

Rules Under which Ono Of tho Prinei-
pals Is Sure to he Knocked Out.
John T. Miller, of Fort Reno, 0. r.,
while seated in a group at the Laclede
hotel, pugifism being the topic of con-
tersation, said:
"When you talk about fight to d
finish and knockout blows, both are
witnessed in the aboriginal degree Of
perfection when a fight between two
Indian bucks is seen in a ring, the cir,
cumstances of which is not rope, but
d string of interested human spectators.
It Is fact that among Indians of the
same tribe, though they may number
thousands, there are few cases of quar-.
reis among them that ever result In
murder, This is strange when it is re-
membered that the Indian is passion
ate, uncontrolled in his impulses, cruel
and ferocious by nature, They have
their difficulties and quarrels, however,
but arbitration of the old men pre-
vents bloodshed or murder.
yet once in while fight occurs,
and it is a novel sight to witness. One
buck challenges another to combat,
and, accompanied by their friends to
the battle ground, each buck is stripped
to the nudity SO pleasing in high cul
tured art schools among the pale faces,
and made to confront the other. Be-
tween them lies war club-a smooth,
long piece of hard wood, seasoned by
years of service and regarded as sort
Of mascot because of the blood stains
on it received during war.
The seconds of the surly looking
duelsts toss up piece of bark ON the
wet or the dry principle, when boys
long ago chose sides in playing town
ball. The winner picks up the club,
and his opponent, folding his arms,
sturdily plants himself, bending his
head. 1t is the club bearers privilege
to whack his antagonist just as hard as
he can and with all the vigorous mali
ciousness he can command on the
back. 1t is foul blow to strike above
or below the back.
"One blow is struck, and then the
man who has endured it picks up the
club, and his opponent is subjected to
all the force he can command. So the
whacking goes on, and almost every
blow is knock down one, until the
duelist last knocked down rises to his
feet and refuses to accept the club
from his opponent. He has had enough
and the party breaks up.
"The severity of the punishment in
tlicted and endured in these duels is
marvellous. The club used has Jagged
edge, and every blow struck brings
blood, making deep cuts and fearful
bruises. | have seen two such fights
aid they are brutal and nauseating In
the cosdness of their procedure and the
appearance of both contestants after
victory is won and defeat confessed. y

OBITUARY.,

Died in Londonderry, VT Aug. 2, 1891, Mrs.
Electa (Tower) Bates, aged 81 years.
The deceased was born in Clarendon,
VT, in 1907 and was a member of the
Baptist church for nearly sixty years,
having united with that body at Ira, Vt,
at the same time with her husband Mil
ton Bates, whom she survived ~ years.
Her faith and trust were lifelong, sus-
tanning her to the end. She has lived an
example, to all, of cheerful helpfulness.
Her unwearied care of her family has
sons, daughter, three grandsons, two
granddaughters and two great grand
daughters are left to mourn her loss. AL
bert E. resides in Weston but was in Mt
Holly at the time and did not get there
until after she died: Chas. E.. conductor
on the c. V. railroad for many years, re-
was with her when she died. Jennie NJ,
with whom the deceased has found a
pleasant home since the death of her hus-
band. is a resident of this town, the wife
of C. F. Waite. An aged sister, Mrs.
Wilkinson, who is two years older than
the deceased, crossed the mountain to be
with her and remained at her bedside till
the last, and although the deceased had
been for months great sufferer, no COM
plant escaped her lips, her only care
seemed to be for others, and the fear that
her dearly loved and devoted daughter,
who remained so increasingly at her bed
side, should be worn and wearied, was
more to her than her own pain, and while
she is so mourned and missed by her dear
ones, they can but feel that she has en-
tered into well earned rest, a fitting
close to the faithful, blooming, earthly
life. Z.
"Mother, thou art gone to lest,
Sweet peace to thee is given;
Thy lost ones bid thee welcome home,
There's rest for thee in heaven
