On July 5, with the earliest beams of

aster to the waiting women and child
rem at Fort Lincoln. "A steamer brought
some of the wounded from the battle
at Little Big Horn and the terrible mes
sage of the massacre in the valley of
death.
An officer of General Gibbons COM
mand made a survey of the Custer bat
tie field, and reported wholesale mutila-
ton of the heroes by the savageS.
Hands and feet were cut off; CHASTITY
gasheS were cut in all parts of the bod

ears cut off and skulls crushed in. Cut
and mangled beyond description, the
men lay under and beside the cadavers
of their horses in the valley choked
with the dead and reeking with blood.

Last of the Tramp Printers.

who is an incurable inebriate, recently
visited Baldwin where he made an i'm
preston on the editor of the Baldwin
Bee, who wrote an article in which he
said of Redmond: Freddy was Jug
ged down in a Missouri town some time
ago and locked up over night, pending
his hearing. During the night he took
all his clothing, which was badly worn,
chucked 1t in the stove and burned it.
When the jailor came around the next
morning, he found ''Reddy' unwilling
to stand trial in his natural habilimentS,
and no alternative was presented but
to buy him a new outfit. A fairly good
cheap outfit was secured and "Reddy'
paid for 1t by serving a three days SEN

NEW PENSION RULING.
It Will Let in a Large Number of
Applicants Hitherto Excluded.

Washington, July 13.-An important
decision constituting the rights of PEN
sion claimants in line of duty cases was
rendered yesterday by Assistant Secre-
tary of the Interior Webster Davis. The
issue is made in the case of Henry Mil
Ter, private in company K, 101st Ohio
infantry. After being relieved from
guard duty one day, Miller voluntarily
assisted a teamster in watering mules,
and while occupied was fired upon
and injured. The department hereto
fore has rejected such cases as not in
the line of duty.
Assistant Secretary Davis, however,
reverses the pension bureaus action,
and holds that the claimant was not
disobeying orders nor violating army
regulations, but was aiding a comrade
in protecting government property; was
doing something which he not only had
a right to do, but was commendable
and SO was acting in the line of duty.
The adoption of this policy will affect
many claims. The case is held to be
practically similar to that of a soldier
hurt by the enemy firing on him while
he was off duty in his tent, in pursuar ce
of any employment at which he had a
right to be employed.

BEAR DOWN A CHIMNEY.
Seattle Woman Badly Scared by a
Pet Bruin at Night


Seattle, July 13.-Shrieks of "help.
murder, fire, police" and similar cries
at about O'Clock this morning, uttered
in the shrill voice of a terrified woman,
aroused the policeman on the Pike
street beat and awakened scores of
sleeping citizens in the vicinity of I'm
ion street and Third avenue. The Off
GER finally located the cries and ran
down Union street to a lodging house
which fronts on Third avenue, where a
woman was standing in the middle of
the sidewalk, yelling at the top of her
voice. She was in rather thin garments
having just arisen from her couch.
On top of the house from which the
woman had just emerged was a small
boy, while perched on one of the CHM
neys just out of the lads reach was a
bear cub.
The woman stated that she was sound
asleep in room 13 of the lodging house
when a tin covering over a hole where
a stovepipe was once connected with
the chimney was suddenly kicked out
of place and fell down on the bed, fol-
ball of fur, which she did not at the
time recognize as bear. Bruin brought
SCOT galore and frightened the woman
half out of her wits. AS soon as the lit
tie bear saw the woman and heard her
shrieks he climbed into the hole again
and went back up the chimney.
The boy says the bear got loose from
his backyard and he was awakened by
hearing the cub climbing up the side of
the house. He put on his clothes and
followed. The bear gained the roof of
the lodging house and climbed to the
top of the chimney. The boy grabbed
at him and the frightened cub fell into
weight pushing out the tin covering in
room 13

BLACKMAN GETS THEM.
Enters the Field for City Con-
tracts and NabS Two.
L. Blackman Will Build the
Two New Sewers.
Ninth Street Asphalt Pavement
Likely to be Repaired -
Other Council Matters

A new contractor has appeared in To-
| peka and other contractors are looking
| to their laurels. The contractor is L.
| BIackman, the coffin manufacturer and
proprietor of drug stores. He has snap
ped up all the city contracts this summer.
Last night he added two more to his list.
He will build the sewers in districts IS
and 10.
The bids the sewers were as follows:
Sewer district Is, which comprises the
block between Lincoln and Buchanan
streets and north of Fifth street; c..
States, $625, L. Blacl1man $54O.5O. The
average cost per lot of the sewer in this
district will be about SIG.
Sewer district 10, known as the Fensky
sewer in North Topeka west of Kansas
avenue and south of the Union Pacific
railroad; C. States, $1OO6; L. Blackman
$S4S o.
The contracts were formally awarded to
Mr.. Blackman and the bond was fixed at
double the amount of the contracts. Work
is to commence before August 1 and the
sewers must both be completed by Octo-
ber l.
The main North Topeka sewer was Civ
en- favorable consideration by the council
last night. The report of the committee
on health was as follows:
Your committee health. to whom
was referred the question of sewerage
and drainage in North Topeka, after hav-
ing carefully considered the reports of
the state and city boards of health, and
from a personal inspection of the ground,
beg leave to report the following recon-
mendations:
THAT a sewer district be formed, as
recommended by said board of health,
and that main and lateral sewers, with
appurtenances, be built therein, provid-
ing the cost of said sewer does not ex-
ceed an average cost of $500 per lot, pay
able in ten annual installments, with in
terest not to exceed Z per cent per an
num-
A delegation headed by Vim. Green and
DR.. L. A. Ryder was present to urge the
adoption of the report but it was not
necessary. There was no opposition to
the report of the committee and City At
torney Bird was instructed to draw up the
resolution declaring the sewer neces-
sity.
There is opposition to the sewer in
North Topeka but the people who live on
that side of the river who have worked
for a sewer for years are determined to
succeed this time and nothing will be
left undone to secure the desired end.

INVENTED THEJINRIKISHA
An American Clergyman Designed
the Familiar Japanese Vehicle at
tn Request of Prince Ito.

Washington. Pa, July 13.-It is not
generally known that the inventor of
the famous national vehicle of Japan,
the jinrikisha, is an American and re-
sides in Philadelphia.
He is the Rev. Jonathan Goble. Goble
accompanied Commander Perry in his
expedition to Japan in 1858, when that
country was opened up to the commerce
of the world. Returning to the United
States, accompanied by the first Japan
ese convert to Christianity, Sentaro, Mr.,
Goble entered Colgate university at
Hamilton, n. Y.
After finishing four years course he
was in 1859 ordained a Baptist minis
ter and sent to Japan a missionary
by the American Baptist Free Mission
ary society.
In 1869 Rev. Goble was asked by
Prince Ito to draw plan for a vehicle
to be used in the imperial parks at YO-
kohama, and made a drawing of a little
jinrikisha, or man power car, now so
popular all through the east. He deriv-
ed the idea from the London bath chair
simply substituting a cOolie for the
little front wheel.
For many years past Japan has ex-
ported many thousands of these vehi-
cles to other eastern Countries In To-
lxio alone there are not fewer than half
a million now in use.

ARRANGED BY MOTHERS.
Engagement of the Duke of Man
chester and Miss Goelet Again
Asserted

London, July 13.-In spite of the for
NAL denials there is good reason to be-
lieve that an engagement has been Vir-
tually agreed upon between the Duke
of Manchester and Miss Mary Goelet.
although the youth of both and the min
ority of the duke are against a formal
announcement.
Prior to the publication of the report
by the Daily Telegraph, member of
one of the families announced the en-
gagement as a fact and it is understood
in society that the two mothers ARA G.
ed the match. Mr.. GOe1et is supposed to
regard the arrangements with some dis
favor, because, although the estate of
the duke is large, his income is COM
paratively small.

MOTHER AND DAUGHTER
Made Lunatics by Desire to Shine
in Swell Society.

Providence, r. L, July 13.-In the
Sixth district court this morning Mrs.
Ann Behan, 81 years of age, and her
daughter, 29 years old, were adjudged
insane.
Up to three years ago mother. and
daughter were mentally well balanced
and well to do, owning considerable
property on Smith Hill. Three years
ago they made trip to Europe, and
while in London were seized with a de-
sire to get into high society. Since that
time the delusion has become fixed on
their minds that they are members of
the English nobility.
They remained in London until
short time ago, in fact until their
means, amounting TO $4,000, were ex-
hausted.
On their arrival here their friends
discovered their sad mental condition,
and after a consultation decided to
have them committed to the Butler hos
pital for the insane. That was the pur-
pose of today's proceedings in the dis
trict court. The women show letter
which they say was received from the
Prince of Wales, and which purp ats to
have been signed by him, but it Is re-
garded as cruel hoax foisted on the
unfortunate women by some one who
by its means swindled them out of some
of their money.

THEY WILL COMPROMISE.
The Barber Company May Repair
Ninth Street Asphalt Pavement

The Barber Asphalt company wants to
patch up it's differences with the city;
and the city wants it to patch up Ninth
street. For several months the city and
the company have been trying to come to
some agreement about the repair of Ninth
street. The city tore up the old West
Side Circle tracks and the street was left
in bad condition. The Barber company
refused to make the necessary repairs
and the city clerk was instructed to ad-
vertise for bids for the repair of the
street.
Last night H. A. Kassen, the general
superintendent of the company was pres
ent and was introduced to the council by
Mayor Fellows. He said that the COM
pany was anxious to make some arrange
ment or compromise with the city. He did
not believe that the company should pay
for repairing the damage done by the
city in taking up the rails.
Mayor Fellows-It was thought when
this matter first came up that the city
would be willing to put in the concrete
if the company would put down the as
phalt. 1 understand now that the COM
pany is willing to do that.
Councilman Elliott-Did we not instruct
the clerk to advertise for bids to have
this work done?
Mayor Fellows-Yes, that was done but
I talked to several councilmen and then
instructed the clerk to hold up the mat
ter to see if some settlement could not be
made with the Barber company.
Councilman Elliott-Do you think you
had any business to do that? 1 do not.
We ordered the clerk to advertise for bids
and when the Barber company heard that
the work might be given to some other
contractor they come in here and want to
compromise. I am not in favor of COM
promising. They took the contract of
keeping the asphalt in repair and now
they have been trying to crawl out of it.
1t. Mr.. Kassen can submit his PROPOSE
upon it right here.
Councilman Skinner moved to refer the
matter to the committee on streets and
walks. Some one else suggested that it
should be with power to act.
That brought Councilman Elliott to his
feet once more. Il am not in favor of
doing this" said he. This company did
some dirty work when it was here before
and believe in keeping close watch on
them"
The suggestion of Councilman Skinner
was followed and the matter went to the
committee on streets and walks with no
other power except to report the result
of the conference to the council.
Ninth street ought to be repaired be-
fore the Fall Festival. The vicinity of the
Santa Fe offices will be the scene of the
greatest display. Perhaps the reviewing
stand of President Ripley will be there.
1t will be disgrace to have the street in
the condition it is for the visitors to see.
