Arrest Of Cattle Rustlers.

Col. George. in partnership with Boss
Herde: Little, who was then working
for u large cattle man by the name of
Slavin, IN jackson County, stole and
drove off seventy-two head of steers to
Chamberlain, and they were shipped to
some point in Iowa, where they arc now

were taken from Mr.. Slavin without his
knowledge or consent. Last week the
United States Marshal went to Iowa
and arrested George and Little and de-
livered them to the authorities in Dead
wood, the district where the crime was
committed.

HAWAlIANS OF OLD.
They We're n Warlke Race and Coul
Flight Like Demons,

They We're n Warike Race and Could
Fight Like Demons.
In the old days the Hawaiians seem
TO have been always ready for fighting,
and 10 have set about it in a most de.
liberate way. AS a matter of course
every man was regularly drilled in the
use of spear, javelin, sling and stone,
and all other means of offense and de-
fense. In time of war, says the Para
disc of the Pacific, all were required to
follow their chief to the field, and any
man who showed any symptoms of cow
ardice had his ears slit and was led into
the camp with rope around his body
q measure which greatly assisted the
nervous in overcoming their fears.
Some of their war customs were al
most identical with those of the Fijians,
as, for instance, the boastful shouts of
defiance, and the advance of scouts, or
of n single warrior, deridingly carry
ing only fan as il to brush away
harmless flies and challenging the foe
to attack him singly. Perhaps, in reply,
dozen spears would be cast at him at
once, and these he avoided by nimbly
twisting or jumping aside or STOPPING.
Sometimes he caught them in his hands
and hurled them back at his assailants.
Truly, civilized warfare leaves us no
such picturesque incidents as these.
The Hawaiians carried no banners;
but the idols borne by the priests acted
as rallying points and inspired the COM
batants with vigon AS flags Of truce
they sent young banana trees, whose
broad and long silky green leaves
waved as they moved. Then the chiefs
and priests of both tribes met to de-
eide on terms of peace. This done, they
sacrificed pig and poured its blood on
the ground, as a symbol Of the fate that
awaited the truce breaker.
A wreath Of the fragrant MALE was
woven by the leaders Of both sides and
deposited as their joint offerings in one
of the temples. Heralds were then
sent round TO proclaim peace.
This happy result generally occurred
when the opponents were well matched,
in which case each acknowledged them
selves to be luka lua-i e., beaten. But
II either party was victorious then the
Vanquished were treated as slaves and
made TO cultivate their own land for
the conquerors. Some were sacrificed
on the affairs Of the bloodthirsty god Of
war and their wives and children be-
came the property of the victors.
