About Baby Ruth.

LONDON, Dec. 26.-The telegraph
in commenting upon alleged dis
covery at Abiline, Bansas, Of plot
to kidnap President Cleveland's
little daughter, Ruth, says it hopes
it is only a story of an American
writer who happened to be short
of Christmas copy. In view, how
ever, of similar exploits like the
abduction of Charlie Ross, the
Photograph" adds that it is impos-
sible to entirely dismiss the story
as unfounded. Those bent on
money making have no rev.
erence for President Cleveland
which is not hedged around
with divinity, the newspapers,
regardless Of the sense of chivalry,
call Mrs. Cleveland "Frankie." The
people who tolerate this sort of
thing the telegraph" says, must
not be surprised if the Presidents
daughter, is in reality stolen.

WILD STORIES
Of the Superstition of the Mojave
Indians.

Indians.
Los ANGELES, Cal, Dec. 26.-A
horrible story Of "wide law" and
superstition of the MOjave Indians,
is told by J. F. Saunders, who ar
rived last evening from Needles,
town on the Colorado river,
on the Atlantic and Pacific
railway. He had heard the de-
tails just before he took the train,
and they seem to be corroborated
by an account given in the local
paper, the Eye, which he brought
with him. The Mojave Indi-
ans reservation is about a half
mile from Needles, and the abor-
igines are virtually their own mas
ters, having their own laws and
superstitions. From Saunders ac-
count on Tuesday last, triple
murder was committed under a
plea of tradition by the Indians.
One of the prettiest squaws known
as Loneta was married, according
to the savage rites, about a year
ago. She was a comedy girl, only
eighteen years old, and had picked
up some eduction. Her husband
was one of the bravest warriors.
Sunday last she gave birth to
twins and as result grand pow
WOW was called, for according to
the Mojave tradition, the squaw
who had twins is a witch, and a
consort of the evil spirit. The
penalty has always been death for
the babies and the mother.
Loneta's husband was so fond of
her, however, that he made strong
plea for her and her babies,
but it was of no avail. The medi-
cine men held that the old custom
must be observed, and the two
little ones were brought forward
and Drained with a club, and Lo-
meta was kept for more terrible
ordeal. which she suffered without
complaint. All Of her personal be-
longings were gathered and put
into her "shack" and she was or
dered inside. She bid her husband
farewell and went in. The entrance
was closed, straw and brush were
piled about her frail structure and
fired, and in two hours nothing
but few embers remained to
tell the tragic story. The officers at
Needles learned the facts too late
to interfere, and the poor squaw
after this horrid torture, passed on
to the happy hunting grounds
where her ill-starred offspring had
preceded her.

Mitchell Moving South.

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Dec. 90
Charlie Mitchell, the pugilist,
passed through Washington today,
en- route to Jacksonville, Florida.
AS he stepped from the train he
was handed telegram from the
state senator, representing st. Au-
gustine, stating that the people of
that locality were with Mitchell,
and wanted to see the fight go on,
in spite of the governors threatened
interference. Mitchell wired to his
manager at Jacksonville that he
was on his way and was in tip-top
condition.
To an Associated Press reporter
Mitchell said: 81 have no doubt
that the fight will come off not
withstanding the opposition of the
governor, for the people down there
would not have fellow travel
that far for nothing. After a sweat
yesterday | took a slight cold
which is bothering me, but other
wise l was never in better con-
ditiOn in my life and the Florida
climate will dispose Of my cold. l
am not doing much talking about
the fight, but of course, feel con-
fident of winning. There is good
deal of talk about COrbett's SUI
periOr reach and height, but l
knew all about that and figured on
it before the match was made"

PLAIN POINTERS

WRITTEN FOR THE LIGHT, BY OBSERVER
The true meaning of society" is
pitifully abused by the display of
vanity at most of the "swellest"
social gatherings.
The old but dignified saying OF
the Talmud, "Do not do unto 9TH
ers what you would not have 9th
ers do unto you," is, after all, the
best and the most substantial
foundation of religion.
Let us hope that the new year
will bring us relief from the pro-
longed discussion in the news
papers on age-worn religious ques-
tionS.
"The "scrib5ler's itch" is becom-
ing a contagious disease amongst
the modern correspondents. The
people would appreciate it, if they
would make an effort to bring up
for discussion questions of public
interest, instead of getting up a
controversy, simply to display
their wide knowledge of Scripture,
and to see their names in print.
