SIX FISHERS FISHERS CROWNED
Sad Calamity in Boston Harbor
Schooner Run Down by
a Steamer.

BOSTON, Mass, Nov. %, 1894.-A COLI
sion occurred early this morning, at the
entrance to Boston harbor, by which the
fishing schooner Oracle M. Benson was
sunk and six of her crew drowned. The
Benson arrived at this port yesterday
with a full fare of fish, and after dis
posing of this. she left here about mid
night last night for Provincetown. She
was proceeding out of the channel with
fair wind and when about midway be-
tween Boston Light and Bug Light. the
Philadelphia & Reading steamer Read
irg, with the barge Suffolk in tow, from
Philadelphia, loomed up before, and in
endeavoring to tack across the steamers
bow to avoid collision, the steamer struck
her ON the port side just abaft the main
rigging and she filed and sunk in about
two minutes.

cred boat, which went to the assistance
of the crew of the sunken vessel She
succeeded in picking up seven of them
who were clinging to Wreckage from the
vessel THE The tug boat Wesley A. Cove,
Capt. William Parker, was following in
the wake of the Reading with the large
four-masted schooner Katherine D. Perry
in tow. Capt Parker anchored the
schooner and hurried to the assistance
of the crew of the sunken vessel.
-Four men who We're clinging to one
of the mastheads were taken aboard, and
they informed Captain Parker that one of
the crew had drifted off ON the BOBBY
hatch, and another one on a traWl buoy.
The Cove went in search of them, and
quite a distance outside of Boston Light
rescued the man from the BOBBY hatch.
Soon after the trawl buoy was found.
but the man had become exhausted and
sunk.
-Four of the crew were asleep in their
hunks at the time of the collision and
went down with the vessel. Another
member of the crew was knocked over
board by the force of the collision and
drowned. Captain John Haryender of
the Benson states that the steamer
showed no inclination to slow down be-
fore the collision occurred, and it was in
effort to get out of her way that his
schooner was struck. Captain Beed of
the Reading states that he was coming
at a moderate rate of speed and claims
that the collision was unavoidable. He re-
mained by the scene OF disaster all night
and rendered all possible assistance in
saving the lives OF the crew. Captain
Harvender was one of the men saved
by the Reading. The Oracle II. Benson
belongs in Provincetown and her princi-
pal owner is Nathan Young of that place.
The names of the men drowned could
not be ascertained. They were nearly
all Portuguese and were known by nick
names and belonged in Provfncetown.

INTRUSIVE UTEs.


sheriff of San Juan County, Utah, has
called upon the Governor for assistance
in driving out 500 Utes who have entered
the State, bringing with them thousands
of sheep and cattle. They state that
they were sent by Indian Agent Day,
who told them that they had a right to
occupy these lands. They have driven the
settlers from the grazing lands and an
nounce that they will fight rather than
return to Colorado.
About 300 Navajo Indians have also left
their reservation in this territory and
seem to have formed an alliance with
these Utes. There are not sufficient
white settlers in the country to cope with
the Indians. They are in a belligerent
mood and the settlers are becoming
alarmed
Gov West Immediately notified the Sec
retary of the Interior, and asked that
troops be sent to drive the Indians back
to Colorado

James NJ. Aubery Brings Disgrace

CHICAGO, Nov. %. 1S94.-A warrant
was issued yesterday by Justice Foster
for the arrest of James Matthew Aubery,
the youth who about five years ago eloped
with the daughter of Chief Justice Fuller.
The specific charge on which the arrest
was ordered was for forging the name
of Melville w. Fuller to a check for $50
on the Atlas National Bank, but it is
known that there are several other for
geries of the Chief Justices name
charged against the young man, amount
ing in the aggregate to about $500, The
present warrant is issued on complaint
of Arthur z. Greene, a boolkeeper for
the Central Stock and Grain Company
The check was made November % and
reached the Atlas National Bank yester-
day, In all there have been ten similarly
forged checks presented at the bank dur
ing the past few months, but in every
case the attempt, if an attempt was
made to initiate the signature of Justice
Fuller. was crude in the extreme In no
case was there the least difficulty in ar
riving at the conclusion that the checks
We're forgeries and the bank paid no
money on them. The only person who

personal friends of the alleged forger,
who cashed the checks for him Neither
will the banks which handled the forged
checks previous to the time they were
presented at the Atlas National Bank
be losers, as they simply accepted the
checks in deposit and paid no money on
them.
Aubery created ons of the biggest SEN
sations of the day by eloping to AIilwau-

Fuller and marrying her. The couple

POOR LOS PROGRESS.
Assimilation Of Indian Children
to Whites by School
Training.

WASHINGTON, Nov. 5, 1s94.-In view
of Secretary Smiths letter to all Indian
agents requesting information as to the
prospect of the Indians eventually be-
coming self-supporting, what Commis-
sioner of Indian Affairs ID. M. Brown
ing has to say aport their education will
be interesting:
Educational work among the Indians
during the past year" said Mr.. Brown
ing, "has been carried on along these
five nes:-Non-reservation training
schools, reservation boarding schools and
reservation day schools, all under gov
ernment control contract schools, both
on and off reservations, under super
vision of religious societies and pub
lie schools, belonging TO the respective
State systems of education.
.'Out of a total enrolment of q, ,451
pupils there was an average attendance
during the year of II, O96 a large increase
being indicated in the enrolment at
government boarding schools on reserva-
tions. The largest gain anywhere has
been among the Navajoes, at the point
where it was most needed and least ex-
pected..
Parents of that tribe brought their
children voluntarily many have been re-
fused admission because they could not
possibly be accommodated and some
have been turned away crying. My

attend schools away from their reser
walton homes and it has been strictly
adhered to.
''Is it not fact, Mr. Commissioner,
that because of the Indian children not
being familiar with our language In
most cases, their education is made
more difficult and this in part accounts
for their being so much behind the
white children when it is necessary for
them to speak English when they enter
those schools?
Yes, that is the case exactly. The
strange language and the uncouth Gus
toms, barriers which the public schools
are intended to break down, are the
trance of the naturally shy and usually
poor fed and meagerly clad Indian chill
dren into a public school. The need of
special schools for Indian youth in which
they shall have specially adapted help
for becoming assimilated in thought and
habits with their inexorable civilized
surroundings will continue many years.
But htere are small groups of31ndians
scattered all over the country for whom
no such schools can be provided. More
over, the ultimate end of absorbing
our small Indian population into our
school system, as well as our civil polity,
must be kept constantly in view and
exery effort made, by pressure and per
Indian pupils at public schools, where
they will be associated with white chill
dren, and being greatly benefited there
by. State school officials have indica-
ted a readiness to cooperate with the
Indian Bureau in putting Indian youth
into public schools and the matter will
be pushed vigorously from now on

About two weeks ago the house and
barns of State Senator Wade, VINO WAS
absent in the attendance upon the Legis--
lature in Atlanta, were burned at mid
night. The men arrested yesterday con-
fessed the whole story It was that
following the recent elections they had
been advised by some white men to
organize and burn out the people who
deprived them of Their right to vote.
They then formed themselves into an
cath bound association for the purpose
of incendiarism. Their first work was on
Senator Wades property, because he
had no right to represent them in the
Senate. They were to have burned the
houses of two well known citizens il
they had not been arrested. The COM
lnunity is so enraged over the affair that
a strong guard was placed about the
Jail last night to prevent lynching.
