INDIANS In THE CIVIL WAR.


They Made Good Fighters aud Are
Ready to Eniist Against Spain.
An interesting question to be eonsid-
cred, IL IL believed, In the event Of war
with Spain, is how many Indinn troops
would ue available for active service, II
necessary TO employ them. or course, 10 Is
understood that the Indians could not to
drafted into the service, rs In the ma
jority Of cases express stipuiations have
been made In the 4 On les that they are not
to be mixed up In hostiiities with whica
this country IL con xrnec. Ii Is believed,
however, that II they were actually need
Cd they would be muster ed In. During
the war tetween tho states there were
hundreds OF Indians enlisted. OF the
tribes the Chsrokees were well repre-
sented.
Chief Duncan of the Cherokee nation,
who is in Washington on business Of In
terest to his psople. said to Star repor-
ter that he thought the Cherokees would
enlist and take part In the light with the
Spanisrda The nature OF the Indian. he
says, Is phlegmatto In the extreme. and
1t takes some time for him to make up
bis mind. When IL 10 settled, though.
and the step is taken, he Is one Of the
last to give In.
The Chsrokees' country, Mr.. Duncan
states, was devastated during the civil
war ss BADLY as is Cuba at the present
time. 1t was the borderland OF the con-
fiict for the two armies, and felt the full
force Of the powerful current Of warfare.
Though the Indians had been promised
protection, troops were withdrawn from
the forts, and the Cherokees suffered the
consequences. ~
Several regiments were organized by
the Indians. they heing forced into IL,
to certain extent The most of those
were commanded by officers OF their own
race, and they fought bravely through
the battles in which they we're concerned.
One of these was tie battle OF Oak Hill,
where General Lyon was killed. Some
or the regiments shared the fortunes OF
the Federal troops, and others joined
hands with those of the south. The In
dian Is a warrior by nature, Mr.. Duncan
says and though the Cherokses are peace-
ful and lsw-abidiug citizens being en- :
gagged at tho present In agricultural pur-
suits, IL is possible they would bs found
ready to take IN ar ms and fight against
o foreign invader. Washington Star.

AFFIDAVIT OF MRS. BRITAIN
CHARGES DISCRETION ANDFAIL-
URE TO PROVIDE
inquiry Into the clubman's Finan-
eial Status in a Redwood City
Court Productive OF a
Sensation.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

REDwOOD CITY, Aug. 3o.-The
,,ori+aI woes of Nat Britain ana MS
wife Isabella, were aired in the oupei-
ior Court to-day Mrs Britain began
suit for divorce last June, charslhs
IRENE cruelty on the part OF her nus
band. The proceeding before Judge
Ruck to-day was the application Oh
Mrs. Britain to secure $500 per monln
alimony and $4,000 counsel ices ne
plaintiff was represented by George u
Ross and Reardon & Lande OF san
Francisco and the defendant py Eo-
ward f. Fitzpatrick and John Il. Love-
also of San Francisco.
An affidavit was read from the plain
tiff stating that during the last TWO
wears her husband had lived apart from
his family and had refused to PROVIDE
for them the necessaries of life. There
are three daughters whom the mother
desires to rear in a manner suitable to
their station in life, but has been I'M
able to do so owing to her own small
income and to Mr.. Brittan's indiner-
ence. In her testimony she stated that
Britain had warned various tradesmen
of San Francisco not to give her credlC
and on this account she was subjected
to much humiliation and insult Dur-
ing their residence in San FRANCISCO
Mrs. Britain stated that her husband
was in the habit of spending successive
DAYS and nights at the gaming table,
and once after a three days bout with
the sports he returned somewhat IN
ebriated in the company or warren
Payne and when she demonstrated
Payne took a hand in the discussion
and informed her that Mr.. Brfttan's
conduct was perfectly proper and In &C
cordance with his rights as free
American citizen, or words OF that i'm
port.
In addition to lack of provisions Mrs.
Britain alleged that she suffered from
lack of firewood. On one occasion she
went forth and felled a tree herself and
provided the necessary fuel, but the ex-
ertion cost her several days Of sickness.
On cross-examination it was brought
out that her various creditors held Mr..
Britain responsible for all bills, and
outside of a few dealers Mrs. Britain
had no trouble in procuring the actual
necessaries of life. Mr.. Britain, it was
claimed. was willing to pay his wife
any reasonable alimony, but thought
the amount asked was eXorbitant.
During Brittan's examination the at
torneys sought to bring out more teSti-
nony regarding his domestic affairs,
but were stopped by the Judge, who adj
vised that the only testimony required
at this proceeding was that which
would throw light upon the defendants
financial status in order that the court
might dispose of the alimony question.
An examination on this line disclosed
an alarming condition of affairs. What
with trust deeds, mortgages, first and
overlapping, the genial clubman is lit
orally smothered in debt, his liabilities
| amounting to $149,000.

Special Dispatch to The Call.

SAN JOSE, Aug. 30.-The High School
students have the support Of almost the
entire city in their strike, and the sec
ond day saw them more determined
than ever to continue the fight. The
people are coming to them with offers
of financial help, and the tuition OF
students not able to pay will be taken
from a fund raised for that purpose.
There was an increase of nearly
dozen to the strikers ranks to-day, and
a steady withdrawal of pupils from the
local High School is predicted. Students
have promised to leave in twos and
threes and go to Santa Clara, and it is
estimated that at least fifty at the
school will join the strikers in this
manner inside of a month.
The students were quietly conveyed
to the Santa Clara High School this
morning. All the excitement of yes
terday had disappeared and things ran
along in the usual way at the school.
No one would have thought the Santa
Clara school a haven for pupils unable
to longer bear the tyrannical rulings of
the Rea gang.
Principal Shumate of the San Jose
High School claimed some fifteen new
pupils registered this morning, but none
of the pupils seemed to know about the
increase. The entire faculty of the
school were out skirmishing for pupils
last evening. Students going to Santa
Clara were visited and begged to come
back All kinds of promises We're made
to. induce the scholars to return, but
without avail.
On the other hand the strikers are
meeting with great success. Students
whose parents have driven them to
school here are rendering the Santa
Clara pupils great aid
Rea and the MackenZies are not
pleased with the school strike. They
blame the School Trustees for dismiss
ing Professor Smith and thereby bring

the populace has been so aroused that
