The following prayer was composed
by G. G. Kneppler of Alameda: Our
Father who art in Washington,
Grover Cleveland be thy name, thy
kingdom come to America and thy,
will be done in the U. S., as it is in
England. Give us plenty of working
mems votes to keep monopoly in
power and it's friends in Office. We
know, our Father, we have done many
things that we're wrong. We have
robbed the honest poor and brought
distress to many a door. We know
it was wrong to fund the bonds and
make them payable in coin. We
know it was wrong to water our stock,
but thou knowest we make money by
them. Now, Father, thou knowest
we are above all politics: that it is the
same with us whether Democrats or
Republicans rule. For thou knowest
we are able to swing either party in
our favor. Lead us not into the way
OF the strikers, and. deliver us from
the A. r. u, and thus we shall hold
the kingdom, bonds, interest power
and gold until the republic shall end.

A Double Suicide.

During the morning hours of yes
terday two young Piute women, after
eating their morning meal at the In
dian camp below town, walked along
the ditch near Bailey's slaughter
house and deliberately dug up and
ate freely of wild parsnip. One of
them died in short time after eating
the poisonous root, and the other
came into town and was taken with
commissions and fell on the street.
She was picked up and TAX Ell back to
the camp, but soon died.
johnson Sides says the two women
have been respondent and have at
various times threatened to kill them
selves, but little attention has been
paid to them as it was an Indian fam
lily row and the Indians did not think
the squaws would carry out their
threat. Yesterday morning the trou-
BILE was revived and they wandered
off from the camp with the determin-
alton of ending it all.
The Indians say that the squaws
had not been drinking, so this cannot
be assigned as the cause, and the fact
