Ed. Smith, the featherweight, who
was to fight Steve Butler soon, did
not snow up at rhe Revolving Light
saloon this morning to sign articles
as per agreement.
On his not coming to time, Butler
and Reich went to his place of bust:
ness and there was told that Smith
had left for Mexico. II the report be
true it will settle long talked of and
what would be long and hardly
contested fight. 1t appears that
Smith is afraid to come to time.

New YORK. Jan. s.--When Herman J. Schul.
tets, q member Of the Immigration commission
which visited European countries last summer,
returned to this. country he came as a steerage
passenger. Disgusting his identity TO all

went immediately upon landing in this country
Yesterday Mr.. Schulteis appeared at the

AN INDIAN LIFE FOR HIM.
Umatills Red Man Talks Plainly to Com
missioner Morgan.

missioner MORGAN
''You look more like an Indian than any one
have seen for some time" remarked Indian
Commissioner Morgan to q member of a Cma-
tilla Indian delegation Of Oregon at called to-
day to have a conference with him.
The long black hair of tho Indian fell down
about his neck were strings Of gaily colored
pearls. He had yielded to the convention
alities OF civilized life 90 as to substitute
arctic overshoes for moccasins. In other
respects he had all the appearance Of
an Indian from way back. His views
as conveyed to the commissioner by an inter-
prefer were quite as antique as his dress. He
said that he did not want 70 take lands in sew
crafty, a. the other members Of his tribe are
doing, as he was afraid that he would not be
allowed to wear blankets and that he would
be obliged to become q citizen. He
thought an Indian had q great deal more fun
than white man and he wanted to contiuue 70
live an Indian life. He added fhat he would
leave the reservation II compelled to take Land
in severalty.
"where would you go3" asked the commits
eiouer.
II would go OF somewhere" was the rather
vague response.
The commissioner told the Indians that the
government wanted them to become citixeus
30 that they could have the same right ~ the
white men and would be protected By the lava.
He urged them to send their children to school
The other two memberso Of the delegation wore
civilized clothes. They came on ct their own
expense from their distant home to ask II some
portion OF their reservation cannot be reserved
e grazing and timber land. To comply with
this request would require special oct Of Coo
greos.

the crowds in the streets that day
there sauntered arm in arm W. TIL a
couple of his friends a young artillery
I.ofhcer Captain Bonaparte. and he
wEaxed indignant at the kings weak
ness and he longed for a few cannon
TO sweep away the rabble. That
young officer developed into the great
Napoleon and he was destined to
receive the sovereigns of Europe in
the very palace of the Tuilleries that
was then delivered up TO- the fury Of
the mob.
Separated from her husband. Marie
Alntolnette was going through like
ordeal in another room with her son.
daughter, and some of the ladies OF
the court She was placed in the
niche of the window and table and
some of the national guard were inter-
posed between her and the mob.
santerre stood by obviously to pro-
tect her. and. as if he were her guar.
dian or jailer he repeatedly invited
the passing throng to look at the
queen and the prince royal. When
king and queen met that night they
fell into each others arms and burst
into tears.
Thus the mob found the way to the
national legislature and the royal
palace of France a century ago and
although no blood was shed on that
occasion. the reign of terror begin
ing on those last days of June. was
fated to give sanguinary reputation
to the French revolution.

I CHANCE BEFORE ARREST.
How the Private Detective Business is,
Managed.

Ell
{. A private detective employed by
one Of the big retail dry goods houses.
OF New York, speaking of his daily
vocation recently. gave out some in
terestlng facts which the general pup
lie know little about
The conversation was brought about
by one of the gentlemen making up
the party referring to the recent
arrest OF woman Of good family
upon charge of shoplifting.
The charge In this particular case
was that the woman had taken a.
silver hairpin and a piece of silk.
during tour of the establishment in
which she was arrested Both the.
detective and the saleswoman swore:
pos!tively that the hairpie had been
stolen. and member of the firm
identified the piece of silk.
Upon examination before the.
magistrate before whom the case was.
brought the prisoner proved that she
had purchased the silk some weeks.
before, and she swore that she had
bought and paid for the pin. The
charge against her was dismissed.
The detective. in speaking of this,
case. said that it was an almost every
day occurance in these big stores for,
one or more women to be detected In
the act of stealing.
When such discovery was made he
said, he invariably called the woman
aside and politely informed her that
she had probably forgotten to pay for
such an article, naming it. taken from
such a counter.
This as a rule was sufficient to
cause the woman to disgorge at once,
with many excuses and profuse apollo
g-es In some cases. however the
suggestion was received with a great
chorus of indignation, which was
usually kept up until they were taken
to a private room to be searched.
Very few guilty ones held out long
enough to submit to this test.
The detective said he had witnessed
