BIG INDIANS AT WAR.
Usage Nation Over the oues-
ton OF Chtef=kiD.

A civil war is raging in the Usage
Indian nation. south OF Wichita. Kan.
1t is caused, says local exchange, by
the fact that Peter Bigheart and
Eagle Chief, two rich and influential
Indians. wan. 10 be chief of the tribe.
As only one can be elected, the feud
that has been started threatens to
Guido the Kentucky struggle so far
as bloodshed goes Already 20 In
dams have been assassinated on ac-
count of the bitterness between these
two factions, and the fight has just
commenced.
The fight commenced four years
ago. Eagle Chief and Bigheart were
then candidates for chief. and Big
heart won. Eagle Chief accused his
rival of fraud, and in the contest that
followed four or five Indians were
killed The defeated candidate repre-
sents the progressive element, and the
present chief is in favor of running all
the white men out of the country and
going back 20 the first days of saw
agery. Notwithstanding his backward
ways, he is the richest man in the
tribe, and is said to be worth over
s3,00o,0Oo. He has made it all since
he has been chief. BY securing the
passage of bills favorable to his oil
wells and the extensive mines he owns,
he has amassed big fortune from
his office. These facts are being
made good use of in the campaign
against him. and they are telling on
the influence Of the big chieftain.
On the other hand. Eagle Chief is
accused of trying to play into the
hands of the whites by fayoring allot-
ment. Many campaign stories have
been spread, in which there is not a
grain of truth, and this has only
served to add fuel 10 the flames.
Each man has large following.

with some degree of violence. A cry
Of alarm escaped her lips as something
resembling a string of pearls fell from

instant the object glittered on the side
walk, when the risky dog bounded to
the spot, picked up the glistening thing
and bounded off again.
Blushing. the girl, in her perplexity
cast wistful glance at the dog in the
distance. Quickly she placed her trem-

there, while she started in pursuit of
the dog. The chase was exciting.
Pedestrians paused to watch. After

Miraculous Escape.

A letter from his sweetheart to friend
in kenosha was the means of disclosing
the whereabouts of DIR. Petite Oron Stone
braker, who has been wanted there for
the past two years on charge of man
slaughter. He has been discovered liv-
ing in small town in South Dakota, and
will probably be brought back to be tried
ON the charges, on which warrant was
issued for his arrest two years ago.
Stonebraker was one of the best known
young physicians in southern Wisconsin.
He lived at Somers. Some two years
ago his wife brought suit for divorce,
and the evidence introduced in the prelim-
mary hearing of the case was of the most
sensational nature. Before the close of
the case Mrs. Stonebraker made COM
plant against her husband charging him
with manslaughter. Stonebraker at once
fed, and since that time the officers have
been searching the country for him. 1t
seems that he went directly to South Da-
kota and worked up good practice. He
fell in love with a young woman in the
village and was engaged to marry her,
but she decided to investigate his former
life and wrote to a friend in kenosha.
The letter was turned over to the officials
and resulted in locating the much-wanted
man.

M. GALLlFET AND HIS FISH.

he Caught 1t in the Presence of Navo-
leon LII. and 1t Made Trouble.
In the etats de service of Gen. CALI
fet, the present War Minister of
France, there is a curious note which
should endear him to the hearts of all
hshermen. After paying just tribute
TO his abilities, the note reads:
But, unfortunately, he selects ex-
traordinary companions"
Thereby hangs a fish story. Long
ago, in the days of the second empire,
0alllfet was the aid-de-camp of Napo-
leon III. At st. Cloud his quarters
were just over the imperial bedroom.
Everything around him was very grand
and very gloomy. The window Of his
room looked upon the pond that wash
ed the walls of the chateau. The water
was clear, and the surrounding seen
cry was beautiful; but the young lieu
tenant felt like a prisoner. Early one
morning while seated at his window
trying to drive away the blues with a
cigar he espied below in the crystal
water an enormous carp. The instincts
OF the angler, strong in Gallifet, made
the young mans eyes snap and set his
heart a-throbbing.
The big fish was the private property
of the Emperor. Consequently, for
Gallifet it was forbidden fish. But it
was such a fine fellow! The resist
ance of the soldiers conscience was
useless. 1t surrendered uncOnditiOn-
ally. The remaining part of the cam
paign against the carp was simple
enough. Gallifet went to his trunk,
brought out his trusty line, to which
lie fastened hook and an artificial
bait. With his accustomed skill he
cast the line. The carp was hooked
and hauled in through the window.
Here the Ieutenant's run ended and
his trouble began. The fish landed
UPON table, overturned large globe
| filled with water, and caromed from
that to magnificent vase, which it also
upset and smashed to pieces upon the
floor. Then it began to execute genu
inc pas de carpe among the smither
Gems.
| The Emperor, hearing the strange
racket overhead and seeing the water
trickling through the ceiling, was aston
ished. He rushed upstairs to find ou1
| what was the matter. Gallifet hearG
him coming and endeavored to grail
the carp and throw it out of the win
dow, and thus destroy the evidence OF
his poaching in the imperial pond. Blu,
| the slippery thing was hard to hold; Sc
he tossed 1t into the bed and covered
1t up with the bed clothes. When the
Emperor entered the room he noticed
