She Stands Ahead of the Husband in
the Matter of Home Rule.
From the New York Sun.
A gentleman recently returned from a
visit to the Indians of the Onondaga rese.-
walton in this state, said the other day: II

nation held in such nigh esteem. My pre-
conceived notIon of the Indian squaw was

race. This is the case. j an told, with
most tribes Of the American red men, but
II was never go with the Nations OF the Iro-
Quois confederacy. In fact, the women
were held in SO high regard by he Iroquois
that they we're spoken of as a people ruled

This popularity is evidenced In their life
today. 1t is true that there isn't much
work done by any OF the Indians but the
men do most OF what Is done, the squaw

to the buck is shown in the fact that the
children. according to the custom Of the

an Onondaga squaw. and they have chill

Mary Jones and a child OF the marriage
was named John Jones. Another indi "a ton
OF the superiority Of The squaw is shown in
the Indian manner Of speaking Of a man

A Case Of Barbarity to a Horse
Traffic ON the Canal
Notes.

Sixteen laden boats left Cumberland yes
terday for Georgetown. They bring Ito
tons Of coal. Cargoes brought continue to
be light, owing to the shallowness of the
water on the Cumberland level. Every day
of drought decreases the depth Of the river
at that point While there Is hardly a pos
sibility of traffic being stopped, the shall
lowness decreases to a very perceptible ex-
tent the cargoes shipped. Every boat is
leaving now with about twenty-five tons
short of the usual cargo. ..
Shocking Cruelty to a Horse. -.
The horse Of Mr.. Samuel O. Wendell was
barbarously treated on Thursday night
while in pasture at Tehleytown, with some
implement. in all probability a scythe; it's
flesh was hacked and torn from its face
Until it hung down in bloody. ieathery
pieces. 1t is said. too. that 1t was the
not the slightest doubt that the cruel treat
nent was Intended for the horse of Officer
McCabe There Is. no conclusive evidence
against the perpretrator Of the act. but 1t
is said that of late McCabe has had diff
culties with a neighbour who, on more than
one occasion. has exhibited a decided taste
for animal torture. Mr.. Wendelrs horse
had strayed into McCabe's pasture lot on
Thursday night and the torturer had mis-
taken him for the rightful occupant.

MIR. WILSON TALKS.
He Declares MI. Cleveland Has No
Thought of Running Again.


Referring to the recent election in the
state of Maine, Mr. Wilson Of West Vir-
ginia yesterday, in London. said that he did
not consider the republican victory as a
pronounced criticism of the tariff legislation
Of Congress.
According to Mr.. Wilson, some of the
democrats of Maine are temporarily anger
ed at certain tariff reductions. especially at
the reduction of the duty on lumber. But.
he added, Names situation prevents that
state from being an index OF the political
currents of the United States.
Mr.. Wilson decidedly stated that Pres
ident Cleveland had no thoughts of again
being candidate for the presidency.
Messrs. Reed and Mckinley were, in his
opinion, candidates for the republican nom-
fr alton, but he thought the republican party
would probably select tariff conservative
like Allison.
The United States, Mr.. Wilson also said,
would never revert to "McKinleyism or
to blind. greedy. selfish protection. The
tariff will not be attacked, and when Con-
gress meets its errors. which are in detail
only, will be corrected"
