KILLED WITH AN AXE.
William Osborne Was Drunk and Look
 ing for Trouble.

Anniston, December 13-(Special) )-John r. Dill struck William Osborne on the head and back of the neck with an axe last night, from the effects of which injuries Osborne died three hours later. Osborne, who was a camp follower of the Fourth kentucky, had been making his home with Dill for some weeks past. Last night he went in drunk and quarrelsome, abusing and threatening Dill and his family, who had retired
 Dill endeavored to pacify him, and got up out of bed. Mrs. Dill also arose, and Osborne directed his abuse and threats to- wards her, whereupon Dill struck him twice with an axe. Dill, who made no attempt to escape, was arrested and will have a preliminary trial tomorrow. Osborne had the reputation of being desperate and fear less, and is said by members of the regi- ment to have killed fourteen men back in Kentucky.

ROBSON AT SELMA.
His Reputation as Champion Kissel
 Sustained.

Selma, December 13.-(Special) )-Lieuten- ant Richard Pearson Hobson reached sel- ma this morning and was welcomed at the depot by large crowd. It was thought that he would go on through to Montgom- cry, but he had decided to stop off here and remain until 3:3O, which he did.
 During the morning he visited the Dallas Academy and went into each of the grades, making the children a short talk. Among one of the lady teachers he found an old boyhood friend Miss Higgins. They used to play together, made mud pies to- gehter and when he discovered her he was so surprised that he threw his arms around her and kissed her, if she was still the age when mud pies were the fashion. To the senior class of young ladies he content ed himself by simply kissing his hand to them as he was going out after having been introduced and having shaken hands with each of the young ladies and the one young gentleman.
 At Il o'clock all the whistles and bells of the city began to make a din, and as many of Selma's citizens as could attend, made their way to the Academy of Music and by the time Hobson arrived that spacious au- ditorium was overflowing, hundreds of la dies being out in gala attire and greeting
 
 Rev. Russel Cevil in a few and well timed words introduced the lieutenant and as he arose to speak three cheers for Hobson was called for from the audience and re- sponded to.
 Hobson said in part:
 "Friends, did not think this morning when half way from Greensboro l sent a harmless telegram that it would involve my appearing in this difficult position, and of tn tal S. signed me something to do l would have felt more at home. even if it had been shinning LID the main mast.

TRIED TO SHAY
 JACK" DALTON Indian Jim Wanted by
 Alaska Officers. THE PATHFINDER AMBUSHED BARELY ESCAPES DEATH AT
 THE REDSKINS HANDS.
THE PATHFINDER AMBUSHED
Special Dispatch to The Call.

JUNEAU, June Zv (by steamship Rosalie to Seattle, June 25).-An at tempt was made four days ago a few miles above Chilkat on the Chilkat River, to assassinate the noted path finder and trail cutter of Alaska Jack" Dalton. He reported it here yesterday to United States Commis- sioner Malcom and a warrant was is sued for the arrest of Ind4un Jim, a Stick, whom Dalton accuses of the at tempt at assassination. The charge is assault with intent to commit murder To-day deputy. marshal left for Haines to take Indian Jim into custody It is not unlikely that the other Sticks may offer show of resistance of Indian Jims would-be captor, as his murderouS act is said to have had their sympathy.
 Two rifle bullets were shot at Dalton by Indian Jim, who fired from ambush At the time of the shooting he was ahead of a party of prospectors follow ing the trail by the river. When the first shot was fired from a clump Cf brush Dalton, although unarmea, beckoned to his companions to follow him and then started for the brush. As he neared it a second shot was fired by the unseen foe. The bullet this time cut through Lalton's coat on the left side, doing no further injury than to bore hole through the veteran guides pocketbook.
 Dalton's comrades. white men, were close to him by this time With revolvers in their hands. In a moment an Indian whom Dalton says was Indian Jim broke out of the clump of bushes, rife in hand, and ran to the denser timber toward the hills AS a number of other Indians were noticed among the trees toward which he ran no effort was made by the whites to pursue him.
 AS threats against Dalton previously had been made by the Indians in the vicinity of Chilkat he decided to appeal to the authorities and so he started back to tide water, taking the next boat for Juneau.
 The Indians are incensed against Dal- ton because they believe him to be in strumental in bringing so many white men into their territory. A committee of Sticks recently called on the United States Commissioner here to complain that the presence of steamboats on Chilkat River was driving away the salmon and if the boats were not taken off they said the Indians would starve next summer It is the opinion of many old timers that the attack on Jack" Dalton is only the beginning of serious trouble between the Stick Indians and the white men along the Chilkat.
 News comes from Skaguay that on Thursday last a severe wind storm wrecked between twenty and forty boats on Lake Bennett. No lives were lost. but many outfits were ruined or sunk. HAL HOFFMAN.
