spected and admired by distinguished
Indian 1ightels like Miles and Terry

interesting stories are told of him. Mr..
Healy was at Snake creek in 1879, when he
surrendered to Gen. Miles. During the
fight it became necessary to kill q Nez
PIERCE boy, perhaps Is years old, who had
struggled some distance behind the others,
and was an easy mark. He had hardly
dropped dead from the soldiers bullet.
when a band of Cheyennes. fighting with
the army, jumped for him. Before they
could be stopped they had slashefl him with
war knives from head to heel. The mu-

Miles, Terry and Joseph walked away from
the camp. BY chance they came upon the
body of the dead Nez Perce boy. When
the chief saw the terrible mutilations he

more careful than usual in booking at
fractions of which they know little. and
the local managers will, they say, exercise
keener discrimination liz this respect. The
booking for next season. and even for the
season of 1884 is now progressing rapidly.

ment of the Alliance movement In the

the Constitution begs the seceders to re-

should disappear and the solid south be
eliminated as q political factor IN American

This tendency which the Constitution de-
plores Is one which all patriotic Americans
observe with qualification. The negro

Ion of parties upon Issues and not upon the
color OF the skin. We're the coiOred vote

would see to il that NO citizens were de-

always nodded the politics of the South.

OIL Fuel on Steamers.

The experiments with liquid fuel
on one or two English steamships and
on several belonging to the Italians,
is again calling the attention of the
engineering profession to possibilities
in the use Of that fuel. In the En-
glish torpedo boat, the Sunderland,
this fuel was used with considerable
success. The boiler was of the loco
motive type and was fitted with
thirty-one burners. The oil was car
ried in a tank of suitable capacity
and thence pumped in a small cylin.
drical tank; from thence 1t was forced
to the oil burners under pressure of
thirty-flve pounds to the square inch;
at the burners it met jets of air de-
livered under forty pounds pressure,
by which the process Of atomizing
was effectively performed. The COM
bustion is said to be so perfect that
there was neither smoke nor smell
from the oil, and no deposit was
formed in the tubes or elsewhere in
the boiler. The Italian government,
it is stated, will continue its expert
ments in this direction, and it is also
reported that the Peruvians will do
some experimenting for themselves
