by them March 10th; also for the
history pertaining to the society,
what it has done in the past and
Is now doing, and the noble tri-
butte he paid them in regard to
their good works in various ways.
1t has certainly been their aim to
assist in every. way that will re-
suit in good to others, and after
reading the editors eulogy upon
this band of co-workers we are
sure that every member will be
stimulated to do her best in the
future that they may merit all
he has said of them. We wish,
however, to make a few correc-
tions: While all was true in re-
gard to Mrs. Robbie as a must
clan, ETC., it is the daughter, Miss
Amy, who is the celebrated vio-
lin player; and while Mrs. Mary
Sears is an excellent woman and
deserves all the good things that |
can be said of her, yet the editor
erred when he said she had |
worked sofa pillow for the So
ciety each year for the past |
twelve years, as only four were
made in this time, and other
members OF the society assisted
in the work and in securing the
material. The members of the
society are all too ambitious and
DESTROYS Of encouraging words to
permit too much work being done
by one member.

A Wild Ride

The daily papers are telling of
how an Indians life was saved in
Indian Territory by wilG ride.
Walla Tonka was to be shot by
order of the court, and after
wards the court ordered a stay
of the proceedings, but the execu-
ton was to take place far away
from the sitting of the court. A
courier started. 1t was after
midnight Sunday morning when
he reached the flooded Kianuchi
river. Here he stopped until
daylight, and then, with his hand
on the pommel Of the saddle,
swan the stream with his pony.
The pony was almost exhausted
when Big Creek was reached,
and a long detour was necessary,
which caused hours of delay.
Night came and more rain, and
when Seven Devils Hill was
reached the broncho was stagger-
ing. He fell to the ground with
the rider and both slept, though
ten miles from Alikchi. Before
dawn they were up again, and
finally, the broncho, bearing the
courier, staggered to the execu-
ton grounds, where the wit
nesses, executioners and stolid
Walla Tonka were facing death.
The Indian heard his reprieve
without comment and. will appear
before Judge Clayton forthwith.

"WHITEY" WAS IN BOURBON.

Sheriff snow, of Kalamazoo, Says the No
torious Crook stopped Near South Bend.
Charles Russell, one of the accused
robbers of the Richland, Mich, bank,
and who is now accused of completely
in the Vanderlip diamond robbery in
Elkhart, is in jail at Goshen. He was
surrended to Sheriff Elliott, of that
county on Wednesday after hot legal
fight with the authorities of Kalamazoo
county, Michigan.
Russell feels very sore that he had to
go to Indiana to answer to the charge
of the Vanderlip robbery, though he
has made up his mind that he must
face it and displayed little of the sore
ness when he left Kalamazoo on Thus
dsy morning. The papers of Kalamazoo
imply that South Bend firm of law
yers will be connected with the diamond
robbery in damaging way.
On Thursday Sheriff Snow, of Kals-
maZoo, informed Sheriff Elliott, of
Goshen, that Albert Peverett alias
Tom Black" alias Canada Whitley
another of the Slater llison- Russell
gang, was In Bourbon, Marshall county,
one day last week, and that the local
constable was afraid to attempt his ar
rest on account of the desperate char
acter of the celebrated bank robber, not
withstsnding the fact that a reward of
$500 awaits his being safely landed in
any Jail in the Uuited States, and held
until the Michigan sheriff can get to
him. He is said to be the toughest one
of the gang and lie carries his hand on
his revolver all the time. "W hitey" has
long been much wanted man.
