the besieged country, it was proved here
yesterday. There was a big circus in
town that had been advertised for a
month. The Indians are passionately
fond OF such show, and it is well known
that they would miss a weeks ration or
travel fifty miles to see the performance,
and although it is seldom that a circus
here is not attended by at least 500 Indians,
not twenty-five bucks could have been
counted in town yesterday.
The Indians get no sympathy here in
the present trouble unless it be from those
who are connected with the Indian agency
in some way. The universal comment is
81 hope the blanked Indians will be wiped
oil the EARTH" And it is equally the gen.
eral impression that the settlers of the
Jackson Hole country are just the people
to undertake the job and do it up right if
they once get started.
The fear is now expressed that when the
Indians learn that the troops are surely
coming they may endeavor to make sud-
den strike and then make all haste for
their reservations, SO that by the time the
regulars get here they will be peaceably
lounging in their accus toned haunts.

THEY RACED WITH A MOB.
indianapolis Officers Had a
Hard Time to Save a
Prisoner.
One Man Threw a Rope, but 1t Was
Warded Off by
Justice.

INDIANAPOLIS, IND, July 25.-Charles
Davidson, an insurance agent of this city,
would have been lynched tonight in the
suburbs of West Indianapolis but for the
prompt intervention of the police. The
jail walls are now between him and an ex-
cited and angry community. He is ac-
cused of having criminally assaulted Ida
Hutchinson, a seyen-year-old child, who
was found unconscious at noon to-day in
her fathers stable in the suburb.
! She said her assailant had been to her
fathers house before, and she gave such a
good description of him that suspicion at
once fell upon Davidson, who was en-
ployed by the Metropolitan Insurance
Company to make weekly collections.
Men started out at once to find Davidson
and he was soon caught. The news of his
arrest was telephoned in advance of his
arrival in the suburbs, and the murder of
the Gebhardt child added to the excite
ment of the employees in the large manu-
featuring establishments in the neighbor-
hood.
The people concluded that Davidson was
also guilty of the Gebhardt murder. A
crowd bent on dealing summarily with
the prisoner met him and his captors at
the station-house door. After o'clock
100 workmen came to the scene, and cries
Of "Hang him!" filed the air. Fifty men
stood Justice Hefig at bay when he tried
to get the prisoner inside the station. One
man rushed forward with rope, which he
tried to throw over Davidson's head, but
the Justice warded it off with his hand.
Then Officer Parry arrived and with q
revolver in each hand placed himself be-
tween the prisoner and the mob. The
prisoner was pushed through the building
to the rear and taken in buggy to the
city in gallop. A wild race to the river
then began, the mob on foot trying to
reach the river bridge first by cutting
across the commons. but the buggy was a
few steps ahead and Davidson was landed
safely. He denied the crime, but several
people say he was at the house to-day to
make collection on policy.

MADE CLOUDS WEEP,
Nezuma, the Medicine
Man, Played in
Luck.
CAUSED LOTS OF RAIN.
Weird, Mystic Rites Among
the Redskins in Okla
homa.
ALL INDIANS PAID TRIBUTE.
Manifestations That Caused Storms
to Break and the Moisture
to Fall.

WICHITA, KANs., July 25.-The past
three days have witnessed at Red Rock,
Oklahoma, series of the most remarkable
exhibitions of savage civilities between
distinctive Indian tribes that have ever
been known in the border history. For
several weeks past Nezuma an Otoe medi-
cine man, revered by his tribe because of
his divinations, interpretations of dreams
and other magical performances, has es-
sayed to bring water from the clouds, and
he has played in wonderful luck.
Previous to the beginning of his mystic
rites the Oklahoma country had but little
rain, and crop failure seemed inevitable,
pasturage dried up and young wheat died.
No sooner had Nezuma called the people
together and begun his strange chant to
the great spirit than the storm clouds
gathered and Oklahoma enjoyed phe-
nomenal rain.
At every subsequent repetition of the
magician's word, copious and continu-
Gus rains have fallen, until the fame of
the lucky medicine man has spread far
beyond the limits of his tribe. He is the
idol of the Otoes, receiving every favor at
their hands, while Indians from other
tribes have made pilgrimages to his lodge
with gifts and tokens.
Three days ago over 100 Iowa Indians
reached the Red Rock reservation. Braves
and squaws and bundles of papooses went
there to establish friendly relations with
the Otoe tribe and lay tribute at the feet
of the "man who makes the clouds
weep" There has been continued revelry
IN the Otoe camps since their arrival,
feasts, dances, games and religious rites
being INDUCED in both day and night.
The performance of the dances was at
tended with many curious maneuvers.
The Indians were all decked out in the
gayest manner. Each would mold in his
hand the skin of some animal, and in twos
and threes would run up and point their
skins and give puff with their breath,
and the persons blown at would fall to the
ground feigning great agony or appear to
be almost lifeless. Afterward they would
recover slowly, and upon rising with ap-
parent difficulty again join the frantic
dance.
The Indians profess to believe that they
really puffed something into each other S
bodies which overpowered them. Yester-
day the two tribes united in playing Ia
crosse, great game somewhat resembling
the English game of golf, on the pralries.
The Iowa braves were arrayed on one side
and the Otoe braves on the other, and both
sides exhibited remarkable skill. The
Otoes were the swiftest runners and won
the game. Other games were played by
the old men, women and children, who
performed queer antics in imitation of
grasshoppers. After being feted and
feasted the final triumph of the visitors

THE CHARGE,
Louis CASTOR Gottschalk Sues
His Wife for a
Divorce.
Both Parties Noted In the Musical
World, and the Case Is a
Sensation.

CHICAGO, ILL, July 25.-Louis CASTOR

directors in the West, has applied for a
legal separation from his wife, Louise
Gottschalk. The bill alleges desertion.
Gottschalk is at the head of musical

"Pinafore' and kindred light operas.
Miss Boucher was married to Gottschalk,

poser of that name, who married sister of
Patti on April "a, 1871.

husband in 1891 and has since refused to

Assemblyman from this district, occasions
his family and friends unconcealed anxiety.
He lett Woodland last Friday, the 10Th
inst, for San Francisco, with a note for
$4,000, signed by his mother, Mrs. Emma
Laugenour. His mission ostensibly was
to get money from the Bank of California
at the lower rate of interest prevailing in
San Francisco, for the meeting of certain
urgent obligations. For this purpose he
had assigned to his mother certain realities
and securities, and the note for $4,000
from her was part of the consideration to
him for such transfers to her.
Mr.. Laugenour was in the midst of his
arrangements to open Allen Springs, of
which he is the proprietor, and his absence
from the Springs the past week, when he
knew his presence there was all-important
and contrary to the appointments he had
made, is hard to explain.

In consequence of his strange conduct,
his landlord shut the door of the hotel to
the public and humiliated Mrs. Laugenour
by denying her permission to enter the
hotel
Last Monday she received a telegram
from her son saying he would reach the
Springs Monday night. This is the last
word any of his family have received from
him.
+ Sam King came up from San Francisco
Wednesday morning and reported that
Laugenour was seen at the Bay District
racetrack Tuesday afternoon. Immedi-
ately after the first race, in which Red
Idle, one of his colts, ran, and in which
she was badly beaten, he left the track. 1t
is supposed he bet with considerable con-
fidence on the mare and was disappointed
at the poor showing she made. AS far as
can be learned there is no trace of his
movements after that Tuesday afternoon.
is learned that Saturday afternoon he
left the California Hotel, in San Fran
cisco, where he had registered. He took
with him his baggage, consisting of his
well-filled trunks and a bicycle trunk.
This leads some of his family to believe
that he has bought himself wheel and is
off on a little jaunt for the sake of being
alone.
He is young man of great pride, and it
is limited that he would not try to live if
he went broke. he was very much devoted

FOR ABSOLUTE DIVORCE,
Mrs. Starr Colgate Has Begun
Suit Against Her HuS-
band.
The Millionaire Banker Recently
Left a Note Saying He Would
Never Return.

NEW YORK, N. Y, July 25.-After
patiently enduring neglect and practical
abandonment for two years, as she alleges,
Mrs. M. Starr Colgate has begun an action
for an absolute divorce from her husband,
the Wall-street fnancier. In her COM
plant Mrs. Colgate names Mrs. Bassett of
9 Christopher street, this city, as CO.
respondent.
Mr.. Colgate is a member of the banking
house of Nesslange, Colgate & Co., % Wall
street, which is known in all the financial
centers of the world. 1t was founded
many years ago by James B. Colgate, the
millionaire philanthropist and upon his
retirement the present firm was organized.
1t handles bullion, shipping coins and
bars to many countries. Only yesterday
the firm shipped 500, 600 in gold to London.
Starr Colgate, as second member of the
firm, has always been considered fnan-
cier of ability.
Before her marriage Mrs. Colgate was
Adelaide Phoebe Angevaine, the daughter
of wealthy French family in East Orange.
She was and is still beautiful and charm
ing woman, and her home at 237 Washing
ton avenue, Bloomfield, has been the scene
VI LII uCn coCldA onJOy iAcHLs one WIS mar
ried in 1877, and is not 38 years old. Her
eldest child, daughter not yet IL years
old, was married recently, and the wed
ding caused considerable comment on ac-
count of the youth of both parties. The
other child is boy of 5.
In her complaint. which is on file in the
Court of Chancery in Trenton, N. j., Mrs
Colgate alleges that she first learned of
her husbands faithlessness two years ago
and confronted him with the fact. He
denied it at first, but finally admitted the
truth. Not thinking that his infatuation
for Mrs. Bassett had completely overpow-
cred him the wife kept her secret from the
world and it was not suspected among
their friends in this city and Bloomfield.
The open rupture between Mr.. Colgate
and his wife. it is said, occurred on Friday
last, when the fnancier went to his home
and found his wife and children on the
porch, barely noticing her. He played for
a few minutes with his little son; then he
entered the house, packed number of his
belongings and went away leaving a note
saying he would never return. The action
for divorce was then instituted.

Sitter wired Governor Richards to-day

bucks passed that place to-day headed to-
ward Yellowstone Park"
Frank M. Foote of the State militia sta
toned at Evanston sent the following mes
sage:
"a. A. Steed, a sheep.owner of Labarge,
now on Hams Fork with his sheep, re-
ports bunch of Bannocks camped on the
east slope of the divide, between Hams
Fork and Cokeville, about twelve miles
from Cokeville. and between twenty-five
and thirty miles from Hams Fork station,
the same of which mention was made in
former message. He counted thirty-six
tepees and estimates the number at over
100. He thinks that there is another lot a
few miles further up the stream, and says
they have not less than 800 horses and
thinks they may have double that number.
They have no squaws or papooses with
them. 1t is reported that bunch of Utes
crossed the railroad near Leroy station
four or five days ago, headed to the north,
estimated from fifty to seventy. It is also
reported that another bunch are in camp
on Smiths Fork, about ten miles from Fort
Bridger. Have no information as to num-
Der. They are killing deer. Sheriff Ward
left for Smiths Fork last night, and Deputy
Calverdi left this morning to either join
him or take the trail of the lot that passed
Leroy"
This indicates that the Utes from Utah
and Colorado are moving to join the Ban
nocks.

BECK INSULTED CONGRESSMEN.

The Indian Agent at Pender viii There
fore Be Remoced.
PENDER, NEBR., July 25.-Captain Will
liam Fl. Beck, Tenth United States Cav
airy acting Indian agent in charge of the
Omaha and Winnebago reservations, may
be removed in the near future. He in
suited the entire Nebraska Congressional
delegation in his office at the Winnebago
agency last night and would have ordered
the Senators and Congressman from the
room had it not been for Senator Allen.
Mrs. Beck, the captains wife, also took a
hand and vented her intense feeling upon
Senator Thurston, whom she called an in
solent man and insulting meddler. She
designated the Congressman as "cheap
politicians claiming to represent Con
gress," and advised the captain to order
them from his office. The attitude of the
captain was bold, insolent and hotheaded,
and for few moments last night matters
at the agency were decidedly lively. He
declined to welcome the Congressional
delegation, did not invite them to dine
and let them ride all night to Pender.
They are very indignant and will recon-
mend his removal.
The following telegram was sent tonight
to the Secretary of the Interior, signed by
the whole Congressional delegation present
at the recent investigation of the Indian
troubles. A letter of 1000 words was also
sent:
To Hon. Hoke Smith, Secretary of the Inte-
rior, Washington, D. c.: Investigation now in
progress leads us to urge you to suspend ap-
proval of leases of Winnebago lands made by
Captain Beck and to promptly suspen nd further
evictions until we can communicate with you
further. Evictions will result in tremendous
loss of crops to innocent settlers. William ".

JOE BLACKBURNs FIGHT.

Dislike of the Kentwckid1s for Cleveland
and Carlisle.
NEW YORK, N. Y, July 25.-A special
to the Press from Frankfort, KY, saws:
Senator Blackburn has not returned from
Washington, but word was received from
him to-day that indicates that he is pretty
hot at Cleveland and Carlisle. The Demo-
cratic State Committee succeeded in in
ducing the free silverites, especially Black
burn, to keep off the stump for at least a
while, until the silver element in the party
ouieted down.
To-day Blackburn wired his Frankfort
managers that he would make four
speeches at the capital next week. This
indicates that he will again begin the
free-silver war, bounty money or no
money at all. He will fight the two C's.
The action of Cleveland in the bounty
case has intensified the support of Black
burns friends. Many, however, say
Blackburn is now reaping the fruits of his
action in the Breckenridge campaign.
In the campaign he laughed at Breckin.
ridge, denouncing ''outside interference"
and now he is getting dose of the same
medicine. John w. Mackay visited Black
burn some time ago, as did Senator Stew
art of Nevada, and it is believed here that
both of these free silyerites will put up for
"Joe" when they hear of the second blow
Cleveland has dealt him. Cleveland
and Carlisle regard the Kentucky money
fight as one of the greatest Importance and
are constantly wiring to Kentucky for the
latest developments.

TOLEDO, OHIO, July 25.-The passenger
steamer Dove went aground in the bay last
night with 900 Odd Fellows on board. The
failure OF the vessel to return caused much
excitement in the city until the true con-
dition became known. This morning the
steamer Metropolis brought in the passen-
gers, and tugs were sent to release the
steamer. The smoke from Michigan forest
fires makes navigation very difficult and
dangerous.

There are two theories applied to the

else he has determined not to go broke.
He was the proprietor OF the Woodland

o'clock this afternoon sneak thief walked
into the inner office of Secretary Cunning

from the safe hand satchel containing
about $1,000. The secretary's office is in
small frame building near the horse sheds.
Mr.. Cunningham went over to the track
shortly after 1 o'clock. He returned in
about fifteen minutes and discovered that
the safe had been robbed while he was alb
sent. The satchel is small and easily con-
jockeys and track attendants are con-
stantly about the office, but none of them
noticed the thief. Mr.. Cunningham was
unable to state the exact amount of money
