brought together in the next few
days at Ft. Monroe. Already fifty
seven warships are under orders to

be issued will raise the total to
the neighborhood OF seventy.
The movement OF these ships north,

Aberdeen News :-Gregory county,
this state. furnishes the material for
wild west yarn Of the most ap-
proved style. A preacher has been
discovered there who was a cattle
rustler and bandit as well, and who
pursued both avocations with Wig
or that left nothing to be desired by
lovers ofthe sensational. Four year,
ago IA man named Hilgard settled
with his family upon II farm near
Bonsteel and engaged earnestly in
the work OF spreading the gospel
among his neighbors. He was a
power in the pulpit, led an exemplary
life and commanded the respect OF
everybody. About the same time,
however, the country round about
began to suffer from daring robbar-
les. Whole lunches OF cattle were
ran off and sold and honest settlers
were driven to desperation. "Ponca
Jim" was recognized as the leader OF
the outlaws, but no one had ever
seen him except III disguise, and his
name became u terror throughout
the region, A few days ago an un-
usually bold attempt was made to
steal bunch OF steers from the
Hamil ranch. The bandits were de-
tected in the act and n posse Of COW
boys started in pursuit. all armed
to the teeth. After nm exciting chase
Tie leader was run to earth III an
abandoned dugout. Here h showed
tight and mt the point of his ride
stood off his pursuers for seven
hours, Surrendering only after he
had teon wounded six times. The
surprise OF the rancher., MAJ be
imagined when they found that the
Desperate, "POnca jim, was none
other than their beloved pastor.

times excited their better natures
and helped them to lead upright
lives Even with his wounded body
before them and his pursuit and cap

were 10th to believe they were not
the victims OF some mistake or
strange optical delusion The de-
sire OF the majority to lynch him on
the spot was resisted so vigorously
that the wounded man was taken to
jail, Where he now lies awaiting trial.
ii the story hasnot been exaggerated
in crossing the plains, it is entitle
to take rank with the strangest OF
border tales, and would furnish a
thriling plot for ten.cent, hair

General GreeIy's 27S days of Death

The true story of those 27S days
OF suffering by Greely's heroic little
band OF explorers in the Arctic region
has been told by General Greedy him
self, for the first time, for the Octo-
Der Ladies' Home Journal. For
years General Greedy has kept an un-
broken silence about his fearful eX-
perience and that of his companions,
as they dropped dead one by one at
his side, and it was only after the
greatest persuasion that the famous
explorer was iniu5al to write the
story.

Game LAWS.

Watertown Opinion: North Da-
koto has q licence game law. No
body outside is allowed to pursue
wild game with gun in hand unless
equipped with Il licence procured from
the state authorities. In Minnesota
the game law is very stringent.
Game wardens make it their business
to see that the game laws are not
violated, and many II man has paid
very dearly for his few days sport

1t is said that an effort will be made
at the next session OF the legislature
to have the best features ofthe North

Weekly Newspapers Value.

A writer in the Review Of Reviews
sums up the attributes of the weekly
newspaper rs follows: Each copy
is read not only by the five people
usually credited to the ordinarily
paper, but by twice or thrice that
number in many instances, for many
subscribers pass it on to theinmates
OF less fortunate homes. These
publications are Dre-eminently tn g
home papers OF newspaperdom
They are not specifically scanned
while men travel to business and
then left for brakemen to gather up.
They go directly into homes and the
reading Of them is duty as we'll as
pleasure. Hence their peculiar val
ue to advertisers and their value as
molder5 OF public opinion"

HIGHLAND PIpERS OF MONTREAL
COMING.

Through the efforts of the Clansmcn
and Scotchmen of Barre, the services of
the Fifth Royal Scots Pipers and also
the drum ma or of the rcgi-
ment of Montreal will be present at the
Field Day exercises and will participate
in the parade. They have also been in
strumental in securing Il number of the
uniforms Of the Royal Scots with the old
traditional Shakos of the Highland sol
diers which will be a great feature of
one of the floats which the Scotchmen
are getting up. They will at least have
two distinct representations of the loyal
ty to the flag which at present protects
them, besides the grand procession and
special features which Clan Gordon will
present they having entered into this
celebration with the utmost zeal.
This band of pipers is considered the
best in America, having been associ-
ated with the Highland regiment which
they represented for many years and
being in great demand at all Scotch
gatherings which are held throughout
the eastern part of Canada and the New
England States, they having lately been
invited to Boston by the Scotch societies
there TO represent the ideal life of the
native Highland musician us he appears
in the land of Bobbie Burns. The band
consists of 10 pieces.

High or Low Tax.
EDITOR EVENING TELEGRAM -

EDITOR EVENING TELEGRAM -
Everybody knows that the pretended
policy of our mayor IS "lay us you 90. >
In the face of thi, everybody knows that
our mayor has always been foremost in
running the city into debt. This year
by his management the city will con-
tract an additional debt of about 5000,
opposed TO creating II sinking fund with
which to pay our debt. Not one dollar
is laid aside for this purpose.
Therefore Our mayor Is also foremost
in imposing upon our city an enormous
ly high tax rate. Two years ago our
tax rate was $2.47 on the dollar. Last
year it was ~ G1, and this year it Is
&2.62. Two taxes which were levied
last year,-l5 cents on the dollar to
create sinking fund which was not
created, and - cents on the dollar TO
pay our biennial state X,-are omitted
this year. If these two taxes had been
imposed this year as they We're last
our tax rate this year would have been
30 cents higher that is, - 90 on the
dollar. If this same policy is continued
next year our tax rate must then be at
least three dollars on the dollar.
This in face of the fact that the grand
list of Eearly every property holder has
this year been considerably raised DO
we want this high tax rate next year?
If not we can prevent it in only one
way-bv so amending the city charter
us to limit the tax rate by law to what
il should be.
This can be done 10y sending the
right mau TO the State Legislature. if
Mr.. Swasey is sent the desired amend
ment to the charter will not be made
Our city attorney holds his Office by the
favor of Mayor Gordon. If elected re-
preventative he will. IF course, do his
best to carry out the policy Of his chief
lie will represent our mayor rather
than our city in TIE general assembly.
The present high tax will be still high
er.
This great calamity to our city can be
prevented only by defeating Mr.. Swascy
in his ambition to to Montpelier. He
ought to be defeated, One Office is
enough for him to fill
Send, then, man TO Montpelier uu-
fettered by Office, and who is both dis
posed and has the ability to get the
charter amended, limiting the city tax
rate to, say, Sl.15 on the dollar. With
the improvements this year our grand
list will be next year not less that $50,
600. At a tax rate Of Sl.7J on the dol
lar there will be income enough an
other year to meet all our current ex-
penses and make our needed improve
ments and also to lay aside Is cents on
the dollar to create a sinking fund with
which to pay our city debt. BY ar
ranging all city finances another year
on this basis our city debt as large as it
will be, can yet be paid by a tax OF not
more than $l.75 on the dollar during
the present generation.
Send, then, for Il representative a
man who will do this good work for the
city. HARVEY lIERsEY.

Story Of The Riot.

The riot on the steamer Reindeer
Thursday night was talked of on every
corner yesterday. Owing to the absence
from the city of States Attorney Brown
no action was taken in the matter of
preferring charges against the Wallace
brothers, who are in jail. During the
day dozen csnilicting stories were told
as TO how the row started. The story
printed in yesterdays Free Press is sui
stantially correct.
The two injured soldiers. John Stcv-
enson and Blake of Co. +, are gctting
along as well as could be expected.
Stevenson left the hospital yesterday af-
tcrnoon with his head bandaced. Three
stitches were required IN the wound in
llicted on his head. Blake is in more
precarious condition. He has an ugly
cash under his left eye and his face is
considerably disfigured. 1t will be sew
eral days before he can leave the hos
pital.
A Free Press reporter interviewed
Stevenson, one of the injured soldiers,
and his statement of the affair is as fol-
lows:
1.-The way the row started was this : |
lifted up Blake of Co. f to climb on the
second deck over the railing. | boosted
him up to the rail when ONE of the mig
gers came up and pulled him down. At
ter he pulled him down Burns of the
same company stepped up and told
Wallace to leave Blake alone or he
would throw n hogs head at him. The
niggcr asked Burns what he would do
joking. Wallace began to talk to the
soldiers and said, "You fellows with
brass buttons and white hats don't cut
no ice around here at all" The nigger
was looking for u scrap with Burns and
kept talking to him after Burns apollo
gizcd. | stepped up and spoke to Wal
lace and told him that Burns had apollo
gized and he had better quit talking.
Wallace said "What in ---- are you
going to do about it?" Wallace told me
to stand back out of the way. Blake
stepped up and tried to quiet matters.
Wallace made Il pass at Blake and |
knocked the blow eff. Wallace struck
me with "sling" and | saw my finish.
| fell to the floor. | was knocked sense
less. When | came to | went up on
deck and told the boys. The next l
heard was that Blake was laid out" -
