ALABAMA CREEK INDIANS.

From the Eufauia Times.
 The following from the Journal, published at Eufaula. Indian Territory, will be or ih- terest to the people of this section:
 From their far distant camp in Texas there arrived in Eufaula a few days since two full-blooded Creek Indians of the old Alabama stock. The two Indians belong to a band of Creeks who left Alabama about the time of the assassination of General Mcintosh before the tribe left for the ter- ritory. The Host tribe" has wandered ever since around in Texas, owning no land, living from hand to mouth, but preserving their language, traditions and blood in tnelr ancient purity. The band has, however gradually decreased in number till now It consists of only forty-two people. They are now living in Polk county, Texas. It seems that some time since someone told them that their knsmen, the Greeks, lived here. had moved here from Alabama, had plenty of land and government; in short, were numerous and happy. The result Is the delegation now here. The names of the delegates are John Blunt and Billy Jackson They will see Chief Isparhecher before their return to their land. There IS but little doubt that the whole band Will come to the nation upon hearing the report of their delegates, and there is no doubt or their being enrolled as citizens.

North Alabama has furnished her share and if this regiment Is not speedily re- cruited Mobile and South Alabama will be forever disgraced.'
 Another officer made the prediction that the Second regiment would not be recruited iiniess the governor conscripted men, He said that every county in the state should be represented in the volunteer forcs and he believed that if it became necessary the governor would make specific call on these counties which have not yet furnish ed the proper number.

HOW MIR. CRADDoCK KILLED HIMsELF

MT Marion Craddock committed suicide at Lawrenceville last Saturday by shoot ing himself through the heart with pistol. He pulled back his shirt front placed the weapon to his breast and sent deadly ball through the heart. and died in an in- stant The wound not even bleeding, says our informant. MT. Craddock was a wid- over and leaves seven children to battle the lives of orphans (and may the God of mercy photect them). He was brother to Mrs. A c. Crawford, of Dothan. We learn that the cause of the rash deed was despondency over business troubles.

RECRUITS ARE BADLY NEEDED.

From the Mobile Register.
 Recruits are needed badly in the camps of Alabama volunteers and this is particu- larly true of the Second regiment. The First regiment still needs thirty-seven men to complete its quota, as no recruits re- ported to Colonel Higdon yesterday.
 There Is considerably anxiety express d in the Second regiment about the ability of the state to. furnish the required num- Der of men, Only four companies have enough men to pass muster. These are the Warrior Guards, of Tuscaloosa, and Mont gomery Greys, which have been mustered, the Montgomery True Blues, which were mustered today by borrowing some men. No one is able to foresee what will be done to fill out the companies. Recruits are coming in very slowly. although every eff fort is being used and the officers are going down into their own pockets to stand the expense incidental to securing men and get ting them to Mobile.
 The officers and members of the Mobile companies feel very much chagrinsd ba- cause of the very poor showing made bv Mobile, and in some quarters 1t is charged that the apparent lack of patriotism is largely due to the employers of the young men, A prominent Mobile officer said yes- terday afternoon that there Is not one hundred Mobile men Tn camp JonnStOn, ana that since the Second regiment is known as the Mobile regiment the officers feel a delicacy in calling for volunteers in the interior until Mobile has furnished her proper quota. Mobile is the chief city in the state" continued this officer, "ana- yet she has furnished the least number of men, Some of our recruiting officers who have gone into the interior have been openly told by men that they would not volunteer until Mobile had furnished more recruits I hardly know what to attribute the ap- parent apathy of our people because

A Yarn for credulous spanisrds
From the Philadelphia Press.

The ostentatious embarkarion of troops at Barcelona flor the Philippines" will de- ceive nobody for the present but the ignor- ant class of misguided Spaniards When the transports and their convoy of armed vessels are reported passing through the Suez canal it will be time enough to take cognizance of the movement. Even the Spaniards are not so foolish as to believe that three or four poorly equipped vessels, third and fourth rate at best, arc sufficient to dislodge Dewey from Manila bay and enable 5000 or 10000 troops to land. That sort of a story would not be accepted by the most ultra marines of the American naval reserve.

Buffalo Bill's Treat.

ss17s- yH4"ty fttH = = T o%ts
 From the Little Men and Women.
 In the Boston Children's hospital two summers ago, on. one of the hot June days, when all the little convalescents who were able crowded about the open windows, it chanced that a horseback band of Buffalo Bills warriors passed on their way to the show grounds.
 The widest excitement immediately took possession of the small invalids. Those who could see described the procession to those who could not leave their cots. A little later, one wee lad. bedridden by spinal trouble, was discovered crying bitterly on account of the lost treat. A kindly nurse endeavored to soothe him; and, trying to plan some little occupation that would di- vert him from his grief, she told him that he might write to Colonel Cody, the great Buffalo Bill himself, and ask him for q real Indians picture. No sooner said than begun. A simple letter was sent, telling that he could not see the Indians when they went by the hospital, and how he wished he had photograph of one of the band; but the long day passed and brought no answer to the weary, waiting little fellow in his cot.
 ',ColOnel COdy must De very busy man, said the sympathetic nurse, for the twen- tieth time, on the second morning. We must wait patiently.' But even while she was speaking, the ward door opened and in came a six-foot Indian, painted. and wrapped in a scarlet blanket, wearing cap of tall, waving feathers and leather trousers, and carrying his bow in his hand. The little invalids fairly gasped then they shrieked out with delight, as one by one, silent and noseless, but smiling six splen- did warriors followed the first. That made seven in -ail. and. like a well-trained regi- ment they drew up in line and gravely saluted the nurse. The poor woman was too much scared to speak But the chill dren continued to scream their pleasure. The strange visitors had evidently received explicit orders, for next they ranged them selves as best they could in the narrow space between the two rows of little beds, laid their blankets and bows the floor, waved their arms to and fro and proceeded to give quiet war dance Then they sangl And then they fought a sham battle. smil- ing all the whilei When at last they went away, a heartfelt cheer followed them down the broad corridor: all who could ran to the windows and saw them ride away on their wild mustangs; and the happy chi- dren in the hospital talked about shows and Buffalo Bill for weeks after

His position on the latter ques- tion is now admitted by all to have been the correct one, while the war with Spain has already demonstrated the necessity Of the canal.

the Panhandle OF Texas, where the
Denver a. Rio GRANGE will be inter-

Another proposed CXten sion takes a
more souihwesterly direction from

In northern Texas. then across the
lower part of the Panhandle 10 RIOS.
