REsPITED.
Belden VIII NOT Hang on Frlday-The Presi
dunt Grants Stay Until July "a

A telegram from the United States
marshal to the sheriff was received at z
o'clock last evening, which briefly states
that Belden had been respited by the pres
ident and would not hang on June 26
This message was at once taken to Belden,
who silently listened to the reading of its
contents. When he realized what it meant
he could hardly contain himself for joy
and heartily shook hands with those
around him. The news rapidly spread
throughout the Jail, and every man in it re-
joiced at this somewhat unexpected change
of affairs. Even the Indians who are serv-
ing sentences seemed to understand that
some good news had been received and
were quickly infected with the spirit of
their fellow prisoners Some sang. some
laughed and others talked. 1t was a scene
of intense excitement and rejoicing
throughout the entire Jail building. Ad-
ans was seen and was overjoyed at the
news which he thought meant commu-
tation of sentence from the president.
All day yesterday Belden WAS
feeling exceedingly happy and mani
tested more interest in his surroundings
his visitors and his fellow prisoners. 1t
seemed that he had a premonition that
something was going to turn up, and that
in his favor. Belden spent most of the
past two days in writing. When ques-
toned as to what he was doing he said he
was writing his last letter to his mother.
Belden had received word from his old
teacher in Illinois that he expected TO be
be here today. Whether or not he was
notified of the presidents late action can
not be said, as he was on the road and will
probably arrive today. His mission was
to witness the hanging and take charge of
the body. Work had been commenced
on the scaffold yesterday, and
the rope which was to swing Belden into
eternity has already been purchased. Since
the president stated his refusal to inter
fere with the case of Belden, about week
ago, strenuous efforts have been made in
the boys behalf. Some of the resident
jurors wrote personal letters to the presi-
dent and to the judge. He was telegraphed
by prominent men daily for a week and
with good success.
The United States marshals who are
here and who were to do the hanging will
return to Topeka today. The scaffold will
be stored away again for at least month
and it is thought my many that it will not
be brought into requisition all this sum-
mer. At least, Belden has another months
lease of life

Danforth Newton, of Colwich, was here
yesterday. For many years he has been
farmer in Union township, and was there
prior to the building Of the Wichita and
Colorado railway. He was one Of the act
i've men in getting railroad through the
township. He has seen Union township
grow and thrive from wild prairie 10 its
present generous expanse of thrifty and
cultivated farms. This to him is an old
time Kansas year. To an EAGLE man he
yesterday said: Yes, providence is smil-
ing on US this year. If he viii only give
US chance to get in this wheat crop,
which is the very finest ever grown in this
part of Kansas, l will think that provi-
dence knows we still live here" Mr.. New
ton reports his wheat acreage very large,
his corn doing finely, and fruit by the
wagon load He is satisfied with Kansas
and thinks that Sedgwick county is the
garden spot of the west.

DOWN AMONG THE PoNCAS

The Poncas Indian agency and schools
are located about thirty miles south Of the
territorial line. The Poncas, probably.
has been touched as little by civilizations
influences as the Cheyennes or Comanches
The annual entertainment of the school
occurs June 80, and Mary L. Craddock,
the matron, sends an invitation to the
EAGLE people to come down, inclosing in
her letter very pretty program of the
contemplated exercises, by which we
observe that Harry No-Ear makes
he opening address and Joe Four
Eyes declaims on the advantage of
being polite. Lucy Understanding
Buffalo reads a paper on Moving
TO the country" Then there is to be music
aud tablesuX, charade. vocal solos and
choruses, etc. Mrs. Craddock in her let
ter says many entertaining things, few
of which we copy, without permission, as
as follows:
Aside from the school exercises. the an
nual sun dance of the Indians begins July
4 lasting four days. 1t Is religious cere
mouy with them. They dress in the most
barbaric costumes-the mems bodies are
nude TO the waist. They paint their
back, breast and arms in all manner of
devices Ihey enQeayor To continue dane
ing necessarily during the four days and
nights without sleep or food Many OF
them tall, and almost die from exhaustion.
They believe that the longer they can en-
dure the great favor they find with the
great spirit "Wacuda" God the sun
being the visible emblem
In times past they used 70 cut
and lacerHte their flesh in the most horri-
bic manner. death frequently being the
consequence. But that custom is dying
out with increasing civilization.
Also the young braves make it the occa-
sion to woo their dusky maids They
envelop themselves in white blankets, a.
lowing nothing but their eyes to be Wis
ibie, and dance before the object Of their
desire, casting presents of bright cloth and
beads, etc. At their feet during the dance
There are great many curious customs
among the Indians. some OF which are al
most impossible 10 conceive, being sur
rounded and SO near civilization as they
are"

Correct thy pleadings my own baby boy.

And verdict, costs and Judgment thou shalt take.

A BLAZE AT NORFOLK.
Hard Work and a Favorable Wind
Prevented q Big CONFEDERATION.


Prevented a Big CONFEDERATION.
NORFOLK, VA, Feb. 6.-Fire tonight
destroyed building in Hill street, until
recently occupied as peanut factory. but
at this time empty, except for a small
amount of patent fence. During the late
war the building was occupied by northern
troops as bakery. The loss is about $780,
900 and is fully covered by insurance. A
favorable wind and good work of the fire
department prevented a serious conflagra-
ton in the heart Of the business part of the
city.
While seven of the members of Engine
Company No. Q, assisted by citizens, were
fighting the fire on the second floor the rear
wall fell in, carrying with it the floor and
preoipitating the party to the floor below.
burying them in a mass of ruins.
The injured are JEFF Robins,
captain, cut about the head
w. Il. Jaques, assistant captain, arm
broken in two places, and head cut; Joe
West, arm broken in two places. head cut
and legs bruised; Ned Witt, cut about the
head, and shoulder bruised; Harry Parker,
head cut in three places, back badly hurt
and shoulder dislocated; Martin Ryan, cut
across the nose and body badly bruised; A.
Powell, leg cut; Milo Holman, a citizen,
badly bruised about the shoulders. The men
were taken to neighboring offices and sew
eral doctors were quickly on the spot
attending them. They are all doing well.
The escape from death of the whole party
was almost miraculous,
