AGENT MYERS GOOD INDIANS

The Star of the 23d inst. acquaints its readers that Except within the breasts of very timid persons and in the fervid imagination of ioke-loving cowboys, the Indian scare has died out in Graham and Cochise counties. The government, though, is not relaxing its vigilance" Or, in other words, Uncle Sans boys in blue are looking sharp, wide awake, and on the alert to seize the opportunity to make food for worms of raiding reservation Indians; and, as an evidence that the troops will not be caught mapping, the Stars qud nunc also says: "A small detachment of troops is at Fuckers canyon, near the scene of the murder of Alfred Hand, a couple of weeks ago. Colonel Sumner, in command at Camp Grant, and Lieu tenant Leavell, of the same post, passed through Wilcox ou their way to the canyon. The force there will probably be divided into smaller attachments or scouting parties. Two troops, under command of Captain Pitcher, have been stationed at Solomonville all win ter, and the road between Solomonyille and Sheldon, along which Merrill and his daughter were killed several months ago, is pstrolled daily. Cowboys occa- sionally report signs of Indians sup posed to be passing to and from the reservation"
 The same chronicler gives tongue to the ayerment of Captain Myer, acting Indian agent, recently in Solomonville, that "there is nothing wrong on the reservation" He also voices the assur- ance of the agent, that "the Indians are quiet and in good humor. It is only when be gets outside that he hears of uneasiness at home" The hopeful assurance of the agent is not borne out by sworn complaints and warrants of arrest in the hands of the United States marshal for the arrest of twenty seven Indians charged with the com mission of an attempt to murder the sheriff-s posse of Gila county, who were npon the reservation in obedience to mandate of territorial law, and who only escaped the bloody intent after an exciting run, under the friendly cover of night. There are now in the Gila county jail three Indians awaiting trial on criminal charges, and in this con nection may be mentioned the fact that Gila county has a claim of upwards of Sl1 1000 against the federal government for costs in Indian trials.
 Agent Myer, at the time of his being interviewed by the Stars correspond ent, may not have heard of the killing of the squaw and wounding of her husband on the reservation, on the 11th inst, by Tonto of Tal.klai's band; otherwise, perhaps, he might not have reported the Indians on the reservation as "quiet and in good humor." It may be, however, that the Star has not cor rectly quoted the agent, standing in she haze of ignorance of occurrences on the reservation. But if it has, Agent Myer should make more frequent trips abroad, in order to be appraised of happenings at home. He might learn much by travel, and would not be greatly missed from San Carlos

KILLED A RATHER.
Two Tribune Employees Have
Fourth Of July Experience.

A huge rattlesnake with twelve rat
ties and measuring feet and inch in
length was killed Saturday afternoon
by two Tribune employees, ELI Davis,
machinist, and Louis Conner, adver-
tisement compositor. In the roadway
four miles north of Beaumont, on Bow
mans creek, Wyoming county.
The men were riding their bicycles
and were within about a mile of Ellis
worth Smiths house, where they pro-
posed stopping for the night. Davis
was several rods in advance of his
companion and did not notice the big
reptile until he heard it's warning rat
tie. The snake lay coiled In the middle
of the road and was within two feet
of Davis wheel. Davis turned sharp
ly to the left but the snake wriggled
off in the same direction. 1t gave vent
to loud hiss which ceased only when
the bicycle passed over his body.
Conner, who was peddaling along In
the rear saw the occurrence and dis
mounted. Davis put on steam and
didn't slow up until he was several
rods away from the spot Meanwhile
the big rattler had gained the upper
side Of the road and lay cOiled near the

reared and neck arched and it looked
first toward one of the disturbers and
then toward the other, meantime keep
ing up on incessant Kissing and rat
tling. .-F.
The two wheelmen decided on a duel
with the big fellow and after securing
a supply of large stones for ammunition
approached from opposite directions.
Either their aim was bad or the rattler
was tough for the fusilade of rocks
failed to drive him from his position,
which he seemed to occupy as a kind
Of right and continued his kissing and
rattle. Conner finally secured a large
Jagged rock weighing possibly twenty
pounds and approaching as close as he
dared, hurled it with both hands. The
aim was true and the missile ended the
snakes life.
The body Of the reptile was tied
by its head to Davis saddle and drag
ged to Mr. Smiths house where it was
skinned. Last night Davis and Conner

Christ Is mentioned all through the old
testament: tina. He is not alone "Je-
sus Christ" but that He is given. in the
Scripture, many other names, all of
which are synonyms for goodness and
moral perfection. The idea about div
inc virtue was one Of Mr.. Russell's
strong arguments. He attempted to
convert his hearers to the belief that
wherever certain Cody grace and
goodness is mentioned in either the old
or new testament that bears a direct
reference to the Christ in an existing
form. Then Mr.. Russell pointed out
passages from Exodus to prove his
point.
In conversation with Mr.. Schilling
after the sermon the gentleman, who
is young student of the denomina-
tional school at South Lancaster, Vir-
ginia, mentioned as further belief
of the Adventists that Christ is yet to
come; that He is all existant, and that
He will again visit the earth in a cor
poral form. Mr.. Schilling said that
his creed believed in immersion. In
talking of the point made by Mr. Rus
sell that Christ existed in the old dis
pensation the question was asked: "If
the ancient Jews of Abraham's time
worshiped Jesus Christ, why was there
form of birth and an after crucitic-
tion?" Mr.. Schilling's explanation was
that the birth and death ended all
ceremonial worship, such as sacrifice.
The Adventists believe in keeping the
Seventh day, not the first. holy.

haps, for several weeks. The tent is a

SECOND DAY ADVENTISTS.
Doing Missionary Work in a Tent on
South Main Avenue.

In q tent on South Main avenue
West Side, about $50 people, most Of
whom were children, gathered last
evening and listened to a discourse by
X. &. Russell. an evangelist sent out
by the Seventh Day Adventists Of
Pennsylvania. With Mr. Russell are
w. Fl. Smith. Of Wellsboro, and J. H.
SchiIling, of Allentown. They come
here for several weeks missionary
work upon invitation of local Advent
lists.
Last evening Mr.. Russell gave a very
interesting Lecture as he calls 1t, and,
by an older audience. his remarks
might have been better appreciated.
He started out to tell what and who
the Adventsts are and the audience
was correspondingly absorbed as he
began to define the denominational doc
trine. But Mr.. Russell last evening did
not furnish q complete explanation.
During the early part of his discourse
he eXpatiated on one claim and told
what Christ Is, by what names He is
mentioned in the bible. that He is the
true foundation for Christian belief and
that the apostles are built upon Him,
contrary to any adverse Interpretation
based on the scripture text: land are
built upon the apostles and prophets,
Jesus Christ himself being the corner
stone," Ephesians, 11:19-2O.
Mr.. Russell wished to impress his
hearers with the idea that the apostles
should not be considered as being part
of the divine foundation. Jesus Christ
is the foundation-and the only One

rest. To enforce his statement Mr.
Russell quoted from Peter. 1:10-11 and
Corinthians. 81. The speaker used his
bible readily. at is the old family
bible" he said: "all of you can follow
me when you let home" He said that

dispensation but also in the old; that
