the hospital. The cannon is 2
Howitzer and Is supposed to have
belonged TO the ''jAekass battery
OF Captain Pike, whose expedition
into Colorado, then 4 portion OF
Spain's domain, met with disaster
and was carried into captivity by
the Spanish dons. Two howitzers
were abandoned in their attempt to
escape from Mexican soldiers, one
OF them at present being located at
Pueblo and the other at the hospi-
tai. 1t is no novelty for the howit-
ger to "speak" Spanish.
Ben Bergermsn came down from
Pueblo Sunday night to assist in
the usual mid monthly rush OF
business. He informs US that the
reason Frank McGrath failed to
pass the physical examination was
on account of his heart. McGrath
was required by the examining
board TO hop on one foot and then
on the other several times around
a large room, with the usual con-
sequence in a man OF sedentary
habits, that his heart beat like a
trip hammer at the close of the
exercise. For this defect he was
disqualified and has returned to
his position as Superintendent
Overs chief clerk.
Miss Rachel Sherman's Sunday
school class went to Nine Mile last
Friday for an outing and picnic
The "outipg' was more prolonged
than originally intended and the
"picnic" part was all too successful.
| The party was the victim OF a
series OF haps and mishaps. The
horse became entangled in barbed
wire fence and had to be brought
to town for treatment. A second
horse was secured and before the
party had fairly started to return
the wagon collapsed and caused
another delay. The parents OF the
children became alarmed when
they did not show up Sunday even
ing and went out after them. They
we're found all well and sound, and
brought home in safety.
This thing Of getting married is
very serious business sometimes
for some people. A young man
hereabouts recently secured mar
riage license, new suit of clothes
and preacher, and went out into
the country to claim h,s hearts de-
sire. He ran up against snag.
The old man objected and threat
ened dire vengeance with shot
gun il his daughters intended did
not make himself scarce. The old
| man having little the best Of the
argument, the invading force re-
tired for consultation. The preach
er was appealed to for advice.
"Oh, l guess you don't want to
get married anyhow. said he. 81
guess that's right" said the would
be bridegroom, and there the mat
ter rests.

 "The people of New Haven did very nicely for the children last Donation day." said the matron. I hope they will do even better this time, and would advise as many as can do so to call at the asylum on that day (Octo- Der 20, at two oAclock), and hear the childrens exercises. I am sure you will agree with me that they sing very sweetly.

Novel Way Used by Grocer Herr in As
 saulting His Wife.
 Adolph Herr, baker and grocer, who keeps a store on Sylvan avenue, was arrested yesterday morning on the charge of assaulting his wife, Rosa Herr It Is alleged that Herr while in- toxicated went into the store, where his wife was waiting on customers, and threw two-pound weight at her, strik- ing her in the head and inflicting a long, deep gash in her forehead. Pa trolman Cassidy was called to the store and placed Herr under arrest Dr. But Ter was summoned and sewed up the gash in Mrs. Herr's forehead she hav- ing been removed to the apartments over the store.
 Both MT. and Mrs. Herr have been married previously, and both have chil- dren by their first marriages, and it is said that these children have been the cause of considerable trouble between the couple. Herr says that his wife is trying to get his property away from him, and when the case comes to court it is probable that much family history will be brought out.

GRIEVANCES OF THE INDIANS.
Timber on the Reservation Stolen by
 Whites.

Timber on the Reservation Stolen by
 Whites
 Minneapolis, Oct 13.-Chief Guy-Ne- Won-Aush is very bitter in denuncia- ton of the manner in which the Chip pewas of Minnesota and Dakota were being robbed by the lumbermen. The principal cause of the difficulty, he de- clared at a council with Beaulieu and other peacemakers, was not whiskey, nor the arrests, but the manner in which the Indian pine lands are being stolen. The Indians had vainly appeal ed to Washington for several years, and had finally taken matters into their own hands.
 -Dwa Me-Nind made a bitter at- tack on a deputy marshal, whom he named, and charged with arresting In- dians on the most trivial charges for the sake of the fees, and being one of the principal men concerned in the timber depredations, although 1t was his duty to prevent them. He named also mixed bloods who were in league with white men at Brainerd to steal all the pine of their reservations. He asked for a thorough investigation.

SANITARY AND RELIEF WORK. State Organization Discontinued-Ex
 cellent Results From It's Work,

A meeting of the Connecticut Sani- tary and Relief association was held yesterday afternoon at the residence of Dr. Francis Bacon for the purpose of winding up the affairs of the associa- tion. About thirty ladies from the sey eral chapters of the state were present. All of the fifty chapters in the state were invited to send delegates but some did not do so. It was voted to discon tinue the state organization and those chapters which desire to continue their work were recommended to do so through the Red Cross society. The meeting also listened to reports from several committees. The work of the association accomplished much good. Through the efforts of it's members many boxes and barrels of necessaries and luxuries were sent to the army hospitals and camps, A number of in- teresting letters from army surgeons and line officers were read thanking the association for it's contributions. In one instance an entire general division of the army joined in thanking the as- sociation.
