THE NAvAJos AND MoQUIs.

Bad Blood Existing Between the Two
Tribes which May Result in Serious
Trouble-Troops Sent to the Scene-The
School Bugbear.s
SANTA FE, N. M. June 28.-The lat
est Indian news from the New Mexico
and Arizona border or from the Indian
country lying between the Navajos
agency at Fort Defiance and Keam's
canyon, in Arizona, is to the effect that
about 100 disaffected Indians who quar-
-eled with their neighbors, both of the
Moqui and Navajo tribes, are ambus-
.aded in the east end of Keam's canyon.
Bad blood has existed for long time
between the powerful Navajos and the
weaker but fierce Moquis. Cattle and
stock stealing has been the grievance
between the two factions. Recently
company of cavalry was sent
from Fort Wingate. This force
having been found insufficient, two
other troops have been sent to Keam's
canyon. The Navajos as whole say
they do not wish war with the United
States, but the Indian department at
Washington seems determined to send
their children to eastern Indian schools
in violation of treaty stipulations.
They are willing to send their children
to schools on their own reservation, but
will not let them go east.

Manly Men of Liberal Culture Needed q

Manly Men of Liberal Culture Needed I'm
Every Walk of Life.
AMHERST, Mass, June 25.-President
Merrill K. Gates delivered his inaugural
address at Amherst college to-day.
Among other things he said:
The pressing W ant of our time is manly
men, of liberal culture and sound head and
heart, In every walk of life. The influence
of such men meliorates all the relations OF
life, and lends to it rich ness and tone.
Christian manhood is a greater thing than
any profession. We do not need greater
number OF doctors. or lawyers, or mer-
chants We do need a greater number OF
literally educated men who value Christian
education above dollars and cents. What
else can dispel the awful cloud of Ignorance
and vice that blackens our census map of
the south and storms at all our ports of i'm
migration? IL the dangers which
threaten us from these sources
are to be averted, we must look
not to "home missionaries alone, not to
clergymen only, not to the efforts of oil
ticians or statesmen, but TO the Increase OF
the number and the influence of those lib
orally educated Christian men whose stand
ard of Judgment and action, in every voca-
tion. should raise the tone of public opinion
and purify the public morals.

Weather and Crops.

NASHVILLE, June 28.-The Tennessee
weather-crop bulletin for the week end.
ing Saturday, June 27th, issued by the
meteorological department of the State
Board of Health, cooperating with the
United States Signal Service, is as fol-
lows:
The rainfall for the week was about
the average for the State. Some exces.
siye rains were reported on the first OF
the week, but these were local. The
temperature and percenta ge of sunshine
were about the average generally foI
the last week in June.
The weather during the week was
peculiarly favorable for the growth and
development of crops that needed
warmth and sunshine, as well as the
harvesting of wheat and early oats, and
saving hay.
Cotton has made rapid and healthy
Srowth, and the weather for the past
week was very favorable for its develop
ment. The crop is now in good condi-
tion, and with favorable seasons and a
late frost will make fair yield.
and cloudy weather, secured good start
of growth and is now in fine condition.
The intended area has been nlanted
and the crop has good stands and
promises well everywhere.
Corn is in fine condition and healthy,
and the week was very favorable for the
cultivation and cleaning of the crop,
which had begun to be very foul, owing
to the continued rains. There was con-
siderable damage by the winds of the
early part of the week, but it is fast re-
covering from these effects. Much of
the early crop is being 'laid by"
Wheat-cutting is about over and
threshing has already begun in some
sections. The yield is generally re-
ported good; the aggregate will be very
large. Some damage is reported from
the continued wet weather, but this.
compared with the general crop, is
slight.
The week was very fair for saving
hay, and large crop has been gathered
in good condition. The yield was some
what shortened by the drouth.
Irish potatoes are being gathered and
shipped in large quantities. The yield
is better than expected.
Fruit was injured by the continued
rains and by the high winds, but there
is sufficient left on the trees to assure a
good yield.
Everything is in fine condition, and
farmers have now very little to complain
of. The week, altog ether, was one of
the most favorable of the present sea-
son.

LOUISVILLE, KY, June 2s.--A fierce
shooting affray occurred at Pleasure
Ridge park Thursday evening, the
principals in the affair being White

Smith. All three have for some time
been paying court to a young woman

to join forces against Smith, who was
the favored suitor.
About six o'clock Thursday evening
Seward and Alsop drove over to the
Watson farm and called for Smith As
he came up Seward and Alsop got out
and began firing. Smith was hit in the
neck and then returned their fire
The three men used their weapons as
fast as they could pull the triggers, and
Seward emptied two revolvers. Smith

CRUSHED TO DEATH.

Collapse of the Buildings of the Paterson
Coal Co.'S New CoIIiery Near Mount Car
mel, Pa, During q Severe Storm, Re-
suIting I'm the Crushing to Death of Six
Workmen.
MOUNT CARMEL, Pa, June 28.-This
section was visited, yesterday after
noon, by wind and rain storm of un-
usual severity. Trees were uprooted
and carried a great distance, while the
rain poured down in torrents and the
lightning and thunder were terrific.
When the storm was at its height, a
heavy crash was heard above the noise
of the storm, causing people to flee
from their homes in terror. For
time it was feared that terrible call
amity had taken place in the borough.
1t was soon learned, however, that the
crash was caused by the collapse of the
Paterson Coal Co. s large colliery, situ-
ated two miles west of this place. The
structure was new one and was rap
idly nearing completion. Four skaters,
j. M. Blossom, Richard Roberts, J. b.
Dodson and William Lodge, from Shicl-
shiny, Pa, were on the roof at the
time of the accident and were hurled
10 Inc BrOtlHu dI d uiSbdnce OF lou 1eet,
and crushed to a jelly by the heavy
timbers falling upon them. Two other
workmen, from Luzerne, Pa, whose
names could not be learned, were also
working in the building and they shared
the same fate as their companions.
1t was two hours before the bodies of
ghe men could be recovered, owing to
the debris that was heaped upon them.
The bodies of the men were brought to
this place to await instructions from
their families.
The colliery was to have been started
next month, but the buildings are
totally wrecked and it will take consid-
erable time to make necessary repairs.
The loss to the company is about $780,
600.

who, with DIR. Ferris, of Philadelphia,
was sitting on the lawn of the Brolxaw
cottage. The two threw off their outer
garments and leaped into the sea.
Brolxaw seized Miss Donohue and DIR.
Ferris caught hold of Miss Birsch.
Brokaw made a gallant struggle to
reach the shore with his burden.
The girl completely lost her head,
several times breaking from his
grasp. He would not desert her, how
ever, and struggled to bring her to the
shore Finally efforts to retain his hold
on the girl exhausted him and he sank
from view with the girl, whom he clung
to to the end.
Mr.. and Mrs. Brolkaw witnessed the
sad accident from the beach, and are
almost frantic with grief
Brolzaw was 21 years old. He was
catcher of the Princeton college team
and a CTaduate of that COLLAGE in N,a
class of '91. Miss Torpia and Miss
Birsch were saved. Dr.. Ferris was ex-
hausted when rescued and taken to the
Brolaw cottage where he lies in a
critical condition. Hundreds of wealthy
New Workers who have cottages in the
vicinity witnessed the sad scene.
