he indian F;gi1t.
Four Good indians have gone
to Their Happy Hunt
ing Grounds.
One White Man Passed Over the
River Styx.

The particulars of the trouble
between party of Navajo In
d1ans, who were off the reserva-
ton killing game in violation of
law and the peace officers of
Coconino county, are about as
follows:
The Indians are said to have
found young Montgomery in
camp alone and run things over
him with high hand pushing
him around with their Winches-
ters. He went to Flagstaff, told
his story and warrants were
sworn out against them for a
violation of the game laws.
Deputy sheriffs Hogan, Dur
ham and Roden were detailed to
serve the warrants and Mont
gomery accompanied them. The
Indians we're found in camp at
the old Asher ranch, near the
rim of Tonic Basin. The Off
GERS, not anticipating any trou-
BILE, dismounted, left their horses
standing, unhitched, with their
WlnChesters in their scabbards
on their saddles. Mr.. Hogan
attempted to get hold of the
guns of the Indians, when they
began shooting At the first
shot, the officers horses STAN
peded carrying off their Win
chesters, leaving them nothing
but their six-shooters. Mont
gomery was killed instantly, re-
ceiving two fatal wounds, one
through the heart another in the
head.
The officers retaliated, how
ever, by killing Hostine Cebuero,
a sub-chief and two others and
fatally wounding a third.
Hogan received four slight
flesh wounds, Roden was shot
through the tieshy part of one
of his thighs, while Durham es-
capped without scratch, though
he was mixing it right in the
midst of the Indians from start
to finish. Hogan and Durham
were both with the Rough Riders
at the battle of Santiago in
Cuba and had smelt gunpowder
before. The two wounded ex-
hibited a wonderful amount of
fortitude and endurance in walk
ing fifteen miles to Angels, a
station on the Santa F'e Pacific.
There were two other parties
of Indians off the reservation on
hunts, contrary to law. In fact,
the white man can make NO law
an Indian is bound to respect,
neither are his individual rights
respected by "the noble red
man," particularly if he hap
pens to be located in an isolated
place. Hostine has been run
ming it over settlers north of
Winslow, with high hand, for
a number of years. In fact has
made it so unpleasant that
number of cattlemen have had
to leave a good range and aban-
don their improvements and wa
ter, Notwithstanding they held
a patent to the land from the
United States government.
There was a report that the
remainder of Hostine band
had murdered another white man
on their way back to the reser-
vation, at Slough Bend, about
miles below Winslow,
on the Little Colorado river. It
will not be safe, for some time
to come, for a white man to be
found alone on the reservation,
or in close proximity to it. The
Indians are revengeful, and are
liable to kill two white men for
every Indian killed.

Some time ago the Empress Eugenie
was a capital hand at Willing away her

accustomed resources Of royal gaiety We're
at fault. One game that she invented, and
which gave much delight, was this: A

then tossed them TO a gentleman seated on
the opposite side OF the room, and II he
caught the flying utensils with such a
steady hand thar the jewel was not dis
placed from under the cup the gem be-
came the property OF the lady. or course
the gallant who was to "catch" felt an
intense solicitude, inasmuch as the prize
for the lady which his adroitness might
gain or his awkwardness lose had vaiue
which rendered its possession exceedingly
desirable and made its loss acutely felt. IL
is said that the emperor was the best

We smile at such Puritan names as
"Praise God Barsbones" and "Ilew Agag
In Pieces Before the Lord Smith. The
Moors, it is said, give similar names, but
of course the phrases are chosen from the
Koran. They arc quite as singular as were
the Puritan names, and are said often to
be as bad lit. Some examples of these
names are given by Mr.. George ID. Cuwan.

BACK TO AFRICA.
Bishop Turner FavOrs an Appropriation of
$1O5. 100000 to BE Used in Deport-
ing 100000 Negroes.

MACON, Ga, Nov. 16.-In an address
before the Georgia conference Of the
African Methodist church Bishop ii,
NJ. Turner Friday urged every opposi-
ton to the Hardwick bill now pending
before the general assembly of this
state, to limit the suffrage of the Ne
groes in this state. Bishop Turner
said he proposed to take the stump in
Georgia against it, and implored every
colored minister to do likewise. He
said the law would reduce every Negro
to the ignoble status of a free
slave and their condition would be
worse than before the war. The bish-
op denounced the supreme court of
the United States for taking away the
Negroes civil rights, but excepted
Justice Harlan, who was the Negroes
friend. He urged that every minister
assist in getting signatures to the petit
tion to congress for an appropriation
of $1O5, O0o, coo to be used in sending
100000 of the race to Africa, SO that
there would be an end of race conflicts
in this country.

A FATHERS CRIME.
4 Chicago Man Shoots Four of His Chill
dren. Three of Whom Are Dead,
Then Commits Suicide. 3.

CHICAGO, Nov. 18.-Carrying out b
plot he had apparently planned with
deliberation, Cornelius Corcoran, Fri
day shot four of his children. killing
two of them, and then ended his own
life. The tragedy occurred at his
home 5401 Dearborn street. The dead:
Cornelius Corcoran, 40 years old; Mar
garet Corcoran, 5 years old, died at
Mercy hospital; John Corcoran, years
old, died at Mercy hospital; Lizzie
Corcoran, aged 3, died at midnight.
The wounded: Kate Corcoran, IA
years old, may die. If she RECEIVERS
she will lose her left eye.
The police are convinced the man
was insane. Corcoran had lived with
his seven children in a fat building at
5401 Dearborn street for a month past.
To all outward appearance he was
kind and considerate parent. For
some days he had plotted for the death
Of his children, and he nearly accom-
plished his purpose Tuesday night.
Hearing the children cough he
arose and in the dark admin
istered laudanum to five of
them, Clifford, Timothy, John,
Margaret and Lizzie. The first two
we're removed to the Mercy hospital.
where Timothy died the next day. Cor
,oran exhibited such profound grief
over the affair that the police and the
coroner thought the giving of laud-
anum was a mistake.
Baked in his purpose to end the
lives of the young ones, Corcoran, it is
thought, made deliberate plans for his
act of Friday.

EFFORT WAS WASTED.
Pa Told His Son d Nice Little Story
with Moral, But 1t Was
Unavailing.

I overheard a couple of weI-known gen.
tlemen relating their experience in domestic
affairs a few days ago. One of them said
his boy was inclined to devote too much
of his time to athletic sports and neglect
his studies, while the other found his boy
devoting his energies to master half dozen
different musical instruments, which was
the cause of his neglecting duties assigned
him to perform.
Il took the boy aside," said the parent,
"and told him the following story: A grass
hopper wasted all the cheerful days of sum-
mer skipping gayly about in the fields and
enjoying himself, while the prudent ant
improved each hour by gathering food and
storing it away. When winter came, and
the thermometer registered in the vicinity
of zero, the grasshopper approached the
ant for the loan of provisions.
But the ant said: What were you do
ing all summer? 'Oh, singing and dancing
said the grasshopper. oh, we'll, chop ice
now,' said the ant, so the hungry grassbop-
per went away and dropped dead from cold
and hunger. / thought the moral of the
story was too plain for me to make further
comment, and as | was about to leave it
with him to think it over the little fellow
looked up and said: That's all right, pa,
but there seems to be just as many grass
There was nothing more to say."-Wa-
