Desnerate Negro at Raw.

Dadeville, Ala, Feb. SD Greer, a
negro ex-convict, who has recently
completed a sentence in the penitenti-
ary for an assault with intent to rape,
is supposed to have made a similar
assault upon a negro woman two miles
east Of Dadeville Saturday night, and
upon her resisting murdered her. A
hot pursuit was inaugurated, and the
criminal was soon brought to bay in
a large swamp. AS the pursuers closed
in he shot and killed Wash Herd, COL
ored. The party then formed a close
picket line around the swamp, and
waited for the sheriff, who left Dade-
willie with a posse. 1t is thought that
II an attempt is made to force the negro
out other deaths will follow.

going to happen. I had learned the In
dian language fairly well, and the old
chiefs told me that over at the other viii
lage they believed the whole United
States army, whatever that was, was
coming. a few days later L noticed
commotion among the Indians, and saw
away out on the prairie long line of
blue marching in our direction. 1t proved
to be the four companies of regulars,
headed by Major, now Acknowledgement,
Corbin. The troops went into camp on
the mesa below the cliff where the OBJ
stnate villagers lived. I camped with
them. and the next morning Major Cor
bin sent a message up to the Indians to
send down six of their chiefs for par
ley.
after a while the chiefs came down
and were very meek indeed. After a bit
the colonel ordered an advance, and we
marched up to the village. What was
our amazenent to find the place deserted.
There was not an Indian in sight. But
at last one of our prisoners told me that
they were out the point-that is,
point of land stretching out north away
from the village and out of sight of the
dwellings, We followed this up and found
it to be true. There they were, huddled
together, 500 men, women and children,
expecting to be killed, I suppose. They
had no idea there were so many white
men in the world, and were simply terri
fed at the thought that Washington-for
to the Indian every Government official
and the Government is Washington-had
come out in such array against them.
Major Corbin talked to them and eX-
planned how impossible it was for them
to resist Washington and how their chill
dren were going to be educated whether
they wanted them to be or not. Just to
emphasize his words about the power of
the soldiers, the Major ordered one of the
two mountain howitzers discharged. Now
those howitzers carried a very ugly little
shell which would make a decided COM
motion The gun was discharged and
threw the shell about a mile out on the
mesa. where it tore the sand up and dug
a big hole. The Indians were almost par
alyzed with fright, except one OF the
chiefs whom the troops were holding as
hostages. At the report of the gun. he
went over the side of the cliff, which
must have been at least twenty feet high,
as if he had been shot. and though the
troops fired in the direction he had gone
and hunted for him, we never saw him
again.
after parleying a while longer, Major
Corbin induced the chiefs to select
number of children to be sent to the
school. smoked the pipe of peace with the
head men and led his troops back to the
railroad, taking the young Indians with
him. That was the end of the Moqui at
tempt to resist 'Washington's' ideas of
education.
