get into it. Leaving his two men behind the
arbor Fire Thunder entered, raising his empty
hands TO signify to the startled braves that he
meant peace. He inquired for some stray
ponies, and finally was asked to sit down and
have talk. Handsome Elk, however, sat with
his back towards the door and his rife across
his knee.
After sitting some little time Fire Thunder
arose to his feet presumably for the purpose
of inspecting some article within the arbor,
and during the inspection CHANGED, purposely,
to approach close to where Handsome Elk was
still sitting on the ground. This was the OPP
portunity for which the Chief of Police had
waited, and with the leap of panther he
sprang upon the recumbent form of the crimi-
nal, pinning him to the ground. Giving a
signal 10 the two policemen who had remained
quietly outside, they speedily entered the
srbor and the murderer was made captive.
Handsome Elk was afterwards tried in a
regular court convened in a border town, and,
although the testimony against him was con-
elusive, he was acquitted.
After his release he was greatly pleased and
was heard to say to some Indian friends that
he would never kill another Indian, thus
practically ging his guilt.
Columns could be filled with anecdotes re-
garding the bravery Of the Indian police who
have the reputation throughout the reserva-
tioBs and along the border of possessing great
nerve and being terror to all Indian evil
doors. The good order prevailing on the In
dian reservations throughout the West is elo-
quent testimony Of the efficiency of the Indian
police at the various large Agencies

fire at once opened on either side After one of
the ponies of the two Cheyennes was killed and
the other Indian had bis arm broken the two
Cheyennes retrested to high range of hills
and from there the fight was continued for
some time. The affair did not end there, but
some days after one of the Cheyennes was
killed by detachment of cavalry which hap
pened across his path. and the other later met
his fate at the hands of the Indian police. Dur
ing the fight hundreds of Cheyennes stood ex-
citedly watching the scene, and several times
displayed an inclination to rush down and
overwhelm the plucky police, who stood their
ground notwithstanding.
A young brave at the Lower Brule Agency
some years ago, whose name was Handsome
Elk, had some trouble with another Indian,
went to his home, and shot him. On the
strength Of the testimony of Indians who saw
the deed, and despite the fat denials of Hand
some Elk as to having committed the crime, an
order was issued for his arrest. Handsome Elk
sent word to the Indian police that be would
kill the first person who attempted to arrest
him, and Handsome Elk's valor was we'll
known. He was, after a search, located at the
cabin of a friend some distance from the
Agency.
Fire Thunder Chief of the Police and two
men set ont to run down Handsome Elk. As
they approached they saw him and his friend
enter Summer-arbor near the cabin. In the

A Scottish American Monument.

The Town Council of Edinburgh, Scotland,
recently gave plot in the Cation Hill Gene
terry for the interment of Scottish soldiers who
served in the American civil war; Mr.. Wallace
Bruce, the American Consul started to raise
funds for an appropriate monument to mark
the spot, and was successful in raising about
$4,000. The commission was appropriately as.
signed to Mr.. George E. Bissell. wellknown
sculptor and army veteran. He took "a his
idea Lincoln Emancipating the Slave"

Britain, as it represents the consummation of
Saxon freedom for which Wilberforce and his
co-laborers so grandy wrought. The monu-

them, and above, on the die, is the shield of
the United States surrounded by the floral en-

lcnged and bloody war was expected between
all Indians and the Government. The entire
force of Indian police at that place then con-
sisted of some 20 men. When the great stam-
pede of friendly Indians from the side of the
Government took place only four or five of the
Indian policemen were among the number. On
the day the hostiles attacked the Agency the
Indian police made a desperate resistance, TAX
ing positions directly at the points of attack
and exchanging hundreds of shots with the en-
envy. The plucky behavior of these whilom
ssvages certainly had much to do with the
fortunate termination of the affair
One of the bravest and most talked about of
the Indian police in the Northwest is Capt
Sword, Chief at the Pine Ridge Agency. Many
interesting stories are told of his valor.
Il was during the agency Of DR.. Y. T. McGil-
licuddy that he prohibited dancing on the
reservation on Sunday. Notwithstanding
this, he was informed one Sunday morning
that great dance was in progress at the camp
of White Bird, some miles from the Agency.
Dr.. McGillicuddy sent the Indian police to tell
the savages to stop dancing. The dancing In
dams retorted that il McGillicuddy wanted the
dancing stopped he must come and stop it him.
self
So, realizing that the only way to deal with
such matter was 20 take no dares" but act
decisively, the Agent sent larger body under
Serg't Sword, directing him TO get the drum
used in the dancing and arrest the most impu-
dent ones of the dancers
When Serg't Sword arrived at the Indian
camp he found the dancers sulky and disposed
TO make trouble for him. Upon their refusal

who held the instrument. and ripped the drum
head with his knife. There was considerable
uproar for few moments, but the Indian police
stood firm and succeeded in bringing the dis
turbers, with the ruined drum, back before
Agent McGillicuddy.
The Indians from all over the country hear
ing of the affair now came pouring in, and the
excitement was intense There was at that
hour great danger Of an outbreak, so much so
that the accidental discharge of a gun would
probably have precipitated one. But McGilli-
cuddy acted with vigor. lodged the offenders in
Jail, and the Indians dispersed shortly after

Another OF the stories told of Capt Sword is
that he was once ordered, single handed. to go
to distant part Of the reservation and bring

Many days had passed without any news being

Trouble I'm Samoa.

Trouble IL brewing in the Samoan Islands,
and 1t is expected to result in open war, at
least that is what is judged from cablegram
received at the State Department. Ever since
tho tripartite protcctorate over Samoa the
islands have been in disturbed state. Ma
taafa, who acted as King during King Mali
etoa's enforced absence preceding the Berlin
conference, has never admitted that he has
ceased to be King and, taking up strong
position on one of the lesser islands of the Sa-
moan group, has really maintained himself in
the native regal style. He has always had
numerous adherents and of late the troubles
that King Malietoa has encountered in the
effort to govern his kingdom have driven many
moro of the inhabitants over to the side of Ma
taafa. The disaffection has become SO serious
in extent that Malietoa has felt it to be neees-
sary to crush out the aspirant for the throne
and the advices received at the State Depart
ment indicate that open warfare is now about
to begin.

A RepeaI RiII.

Judging by the answers sent by the Mem
bers of Congress to inquiries as to how they
will vote on the question of repeating the
Sherman act, there will not be much difficulty
in getting a repeal bill through in the early
days of the extra session. The friends of re-
peal seem to outnumher its opponents very
largely, and If the question could be narrowed
down to simply repeating the Sherman law
there would be little difficulty about it, The
only trouble is that there will doubtless be at
tempts to load the repeal bills up with other
money legislation, and there is where there
will be great diversity of opinion. The idea
seems to be very general that if the Sherman
law be repealed some legislation ought to be
enacted for increasing the volume of tho cur
rency to at least as great an extent as its
monthly increase under the Sherman act,

could have removed all traces Of each crime so
soon after its com ission.
The police of Fall River have played q very
dastsrdly part as, judging from their actions,
it would seem that they had decided from the
first that Lizzie was gnilty, and tried their
best, even to the extent of lying in the witness
box, 10 secure her conviction. But the defense
ably proved the fslsity of their assertions, and
nullified the effect of any of their testimony
which bore against the prisoner.
The fact of Lizzie having burned blue
dress few days after the murder was proved
by the defense to have been perfectly reason
able proceeding and in keeping with the habits
of the Borden family. 1t was shown that in
stead of Lizzie being at "outs" with her step
mother. she was on pleasant enough terms with
her. The prosecution failed to show motive
for the crime that was satisfactory.
In substantiation of Lizzie's statement, that
she went out into the barn. ETC.. pedler was
found who testified that he saw Lizzie Borden
coming from the direction of the barn towards
the house at q few minutes past II. OF course
Lizzie Borden might have gone to the barn
and did rs she said after having murdered her
father, but the prosecution could not show
that.
The evidence that Lizzie had attempted to
buy prussic acid was ruled out as irrelevant.
1t was shown that her family physician had
administered morphia to the prisoner after the
murder, and in any event trifing discrepancies
in her story while laboring under strong ex-
element were to be expected, and the physician
testified that the morphia might affect her
memory at the inquest.
This evidence given before the Coroner's In
quest by tho prisoner was ruled out, because
she was under arrest when she gave it.
This was considered point Of great import
ance to the defense. 1t was shown to have
been the custom to bolt the front door to keep
1t from flying open. The effort to connect Liz
zie with the Ratchet or any other weapon
failed. All this was shown by the prosecuting
witnesses and, further, that the theory of ex-
elusive opportunity was supported only by
negative testimony.
The prosecution closed without having scored
a point of importance. The defense brought
up few witnesses. The case was argued briefly,
and sent to the jury. A verdict of not guilty
is doubtless forthcoming.

suit that no blood, except one spot as large as
pins head on her skirt, was found.
A belief in the doub BILE guilt of Lizzie Borden
means this, that with her mother lying slaugh-
tered upstairs she went calmly about her ord
nary household duties; that she chatted and
laughed with Bridget. and than took her chances
on Bridget getting out of the way long enou gh
for her to slip into the room and split open her
fathers head as il lay resting ON the pillow
which she had smoothed for him to rest upon
1t involves also believing that after butchering
her mother with Bridget about the house and
apt to come upstairs at any moment, she was
able to make way with sber weapon and her
blood-soaked garments of slaughter rs quickly
and deftly as she did after the murder of her
father.
On Monday, June s. the trial of Lizzie Dor.
den began. 1t has been held before Chief just
ice Mason and Associate Justices Blodgett and
Dewry. The prisoner has been defended by
ex-Gov. George ID. Robinson, Lawyers Andrew
]. Jennings, of Fall River, and Melvin o.
Adams, Of Boston. The prosecution has been
conducted by District Attorney Knowlton and
Assistant District Attorney Henry Moody, of
the Eastern District.
II is sufficient to say that in the course of
the trial the entire case of the Government
has been negatived by the fact that the defense
has been able to show the opposite thing to
that which has been charged against Lizzie
coHld have been SO. The prosecution has
proved nothing. 1t has been totally at loss to
account FOE the way in which Lizzie if guilty,
