ard was doing guard duty near the
coloneps quarters at the time. About
10 o'clock the officer Of the day APP
preached the commanders tent ac-
companied by. the superintendent of
the Red Wing reformatory. They
entered into conversation and Blanch-
ard at once called to the corporal and
complained of being sick. He asked
leave to absent himself from duty for
the balance of his relief, which was
only to continue for a few minutes.
He told the corporal that he had been
suddenly seized with a severe attack
Of diarrhoea and must be relieved ut
once. Just at this moment the officer
of the day was seen approaching from
the coloneEs tent. The sick man grew
suddenly pale and the corporal, think
ing that he was seriously i'll, told him
to 20 at once. Blanchard started hur-
riedly for the woods in the rear of the
camp. The officer of the day delivered
an unimportant order to the corporal
and returned to the coloners tent.
Nothing has been seen of Blanchard
since. Nothing has been heard from
Private Haynes, who made his escape

Denver, July 1G.---A special to the

that a second battle has occurred be-

white men wounded. But no particu-

Word from Jackson Hole is anxiously
awaited here.
A messenger from Fort Washable
says that in the encounter with the
Indians three settlers We're badly
wounded and several Indians were
also wounded, and it is not known
how many. Indian police were dis
patched several days ago from Sho-
shone agency to Marysville in Jack

are due tomorrow. The trouble was
started by an attempt to arrest a band
Of Bannocks who were Wantonly slay-

as luxury by the Indians. Last
year the Indians killed several hun

August Steinhauser, one of the most
unique characters in the city, is dead
after almost a lifetime spent as a

passed away at the county hospital.
Three years ago a reporter gave him
quarter to buy something to eat,
and the old fellow in turn gave it to a
boy who picked up his hat when it
had blown away. Steinhauser was
past seventy-tive years of age, a tramp
and philosopher To a reporter he

copious libations gave him a certain
rambling way of talking that made it

mill of Bloomfield, Neb.. and all the
real property Of j. r. M. Pierce passed
into the hands of his English creditors
to-day, who invested $4,000 in cash

and has not vet been started up. The
aggregate value of the property thus
secured is 100000. The representa-

building the Norfolk g. Yankton rail-
road and the bridge across the Mis-
souri, at this city. AS near as can be-
ascertained these creditors were
Pierce's victims to the extent of ST.

Leave For Home.

Boston. July 16-The great Chris
tian Endeavor convention adjourned
to-day, and many Of tie $4,000 dele
gates have left fer home. Meetings
We're held in the forenoon in Mechan-
les hall and Tents Endeavor and Will
liston. At noon Il rally was held in
Faneuil hall. In the afternoon the
closing meetings were held in Me-
chanics' hail and in the tents. The
convention was a success in every
particular.
The programme yesterday included
work only for the visiting clergymen.
The local ministers in general gave
place to those who had come from
other localities to attend the conven-
ton, and it is doubtful If ever i'm thel
history Of Boston it's pulpits We're sup
piled with such an array of eminent
preachers. To, the more than $4,000
members Of the Y. p. S. c. E. the day
came as a literal ''day Of rest" The
energetic young men and women who,
ever since the convention opened,
have been given but, little respite
from their labors in caring for the
many visitors, appreciated the change,
and the strangers, wearied by contin-
ued convention sessions, seemed glad
to be able to attend service in the To-
cality in which their headquarters
were, instead of having to undergo
! the croWding necessity to get to the
! tent meetings and the Mechanics hall
sessions. This distribution of cleSSy-
| men was so planned that the de.eya-
| tons Quartered in the suburbs could
attend worship in their districts
| Several delegations located down
| town emphasized their ideas on the
matter of Sabbath observance by
meeting Saturday and passing resolu-
| tons pledging themselves not to use
; the street cars or other conveyances
Sunday. AS result the streets just
| prior to the commencement Of regular
| church services were thronged with
men and women wearing Christian
Endeavor badges, proceeding on foot
to the most convenient churches.
They had already begun the day with
the usual 6:3O q. m. prayer meetings
at their various headquarters, but in
contrast to their practice on other
streets as the delegations passed to
and fro. ~. .---
The clergymen who spoke are
among the most eminent in this coul-
| try, and the list also included many
distinguished preachers from abroad.
In many cases the themes were upon
the Christian Endeav0r movement
and its results; in others general re-
ligious subjects were chosen. With
$4,000 visitors in the city besides the
regular church-goers, nearly every
church was filled. ,
