Faithful Animal that Deliberately

Speaking of the grief that some

had been deserted for three days.
The horse was owned by u man
named Jim Kelly, well-known pros
pector, who, in July. 1897, came into.
Grand Forks, B. r., after an absence
in the mountains of several weeks.
The animal was nothing but common
cayuse, on which Kelly sometimes
rode and sometimes packed his outfit
when the trails wdfe steep and diff
cult. Naturally, the man and horse.
became attached to each other by their
close companionship and the little
marks of kindness shown in their lone
ly camps when Kelly would pet the
tired cayuse and perhaps give him n.
handful of sugar before he fed him
for the night. 1t was remarked by
those who met them that the cayuse
showed an uncommon attachment for
Kelly.
Well, on arriving in town Jim staked
out his horse and betook himself to.
the Cosmos hotel and proceeded to
sample all kinds of liquor, prolonging
his spree until Sunday afternoon. All
day Friday, during Friday night and
until late Saturday afternoon the cay
use waited, whinnting when anyone
approached, but yiciously resenting
any attempt to feed him. About sun
set Saturday, his master not return
ing, the horse strained at his picket
rope till he finally succeeded in pulling
the picket pin, and, trailing the rope
behind him. he trotted up to the Co.'S
mos, keeping up a prolonged whinny.
He walked up the steps to the porch
and peered anXiously through the win
dows in search of his master. For 15
or 90 minutes he walked up and down
the porch, whinnying as though in
great pain. Then, after long look in
o the windows, he left the porch and,
with head hanging near the ground.
he walked into a stream of water, about
three feet deep, lay down on his side.
and buried his head under the water.
''The act was witnessed by me and
by a number of others who were at
tracted by the horses strange conduct.
We followed him down to the creek.
There is no doubt he deliberately COM

Senator Depew Is I'm Favor of Giving
Aguinaldo q Good Licking.

NEW YORK. July IA dinner was given
tonight at the Republican Club in honor
of the return from Europe of Senator
Chauncey NJ. Depew. Mr.. Depew was the
principal speaker. He said IN part: In
Europe found that there was no sympathy
for Spain on account of her defeat in the
late war. / found nothing but curiosity
about the United States. The people of
Europe are wondering whether we will be
equal TO the task we have taken In the
east. An English statesman said to me one
day: why don't your country square
Aguinaido? We have found in our wars
with the natives of eastern countries that
they cannot be trusted. and as soon as you
make allies of them you will find they will
stab you in the back. We tried the plan in
Egypt of subjugating the natives by force
of arms, and then we ed another plan,
which worked very sucC sfully. We found
that TO bring the nativ TO the right way
of looking at matters Importance was TO
square them
II told that statesma the people of the
United States would .ther send 10000
100000 or even 100000 men to the Philippines
than spend 500 in squarins Aguinaldo. In
my judgment we have not appreciated
thoroughly the situation in the east. This
has been principally due TO the bravery of
honor and the glory Of fighting the contests
and winning without other aid. / think IL
is a mistake. We should bend every energy
and send such force to the Philippines as
six weeks time. We should sweep these
insurrectionists before US. When we have
captured stretch of territory we should
have force there of sufficient strength to
hold IL. The war should be carried on in
such way as to drive Aguinaldo and his
crew into submission or into the sea-"

News of the gravest import from Guate-

sengers on the Snyder steamship Break

leading Central American ports before put

ports seem to be authentic in the main and
come from sources that are of the highest
order. Just before sailing on the steamer
for New Orleans said the speaker, who
asked that his name be omitted from the
report, i was informed by persons in the
best of positions that probably before

the two leading ports of the Republic Of

before sailing and everything seems to
point to its genuineness. A large amount
OF the government debt, in the form of
bonds issued by the government of Guate-
mala, is held by English and German in
terests- These bonds have been practically
repudiated. at least the bonas have sunk
to nothing and the German and English
holders have protested vigorously to their
governments.
