DEATH FOR ELOPING.
South Americans are Severe on
Young People of Spirit.
Chicago News.


A strange race of people, with
manners and customs stranger
still, lives near the coast of San
Bias, Columbia, South America.
To the few traders who visit the
spot for cocoanuts and vegetable
ivory they are known as the San
Bias Indians. or their origin
and history but little can be dis
covered, says The Philadelphia
Inquirer.
One thing is certain, that al
though friendly to the govern
ment of the United States and to
the foreigners who may enter or
find themselves weather bound in
the harbor of San Bias, there is
no record OF them having ever
been conquered or subjugated by
any other tribe.
Although inclined to be friend
ly, they look with most Jealous
eyes upon any effort to cultivate
a closer acquaintance than the
necessities of trade require. No
matter how many vessels may
lie at anchor in the harbor or how
much trading may have been car.
ried on during the day, every
white man at sun down must go
on board his ship or at least leave
the territory of the tribe until
the following morning.
The maidens Of this peculiar
tribe are quite attractive, and
many jack tar has risked his
life in the effort to win or cap
ture dusky bride. Love, as in
other lands, occasionally over
comes all obstacles, but if the
unfortunate girl is caught or ever
returns to her people the punish.
ment is death.
The young mate of an English
bark lying in the harbor became
enamored of a girl, whose home
was near the beach. The mates
attentions were persistent, and
his love was secretly returned.
One night, just before the ship
was to sail, the Indian maiden
secreted her sailor boy in the
thickets until after dark, when
they stole a canoe aid started to
paddle out to the vessel. But an
awful tropical storm arose, which
caused the eloping couple to lose
their bearings, and only with
difficulty did they manage to
keep atloat When morning
dawncd they were washed ashore
almost exhausted. The enraged
Indians seized both and made
them captives. condemning the
girl to immediate death.
The captain of the bark, antic-
jpating trouble. sent boats crew
ashore with a rescue party. A
demand was made for the pris-
oner, whereupon the mate was
released, but the girl was held tor
the death sentence.
Finding arguments useless, the
desperate youth, with a few sail
ors, at his back, made a rush to
rescue his sweetheart. and had
almost accomplished it when he
was struck down by a spear
thrust from the hand Of the girls |
father.

coMPAN1oNABLE HORSE THIEF
Graham County Justice of the Peace
 Travels With an Outlaw.

Last Sunday night agent Brown, at
 the depot, lost his brown mare, says the Solomonville Bulletin. She was standing saddled in front of Elias store when a Mexican happened along and appropriated her for his own use. The next. day he overlook Justice of the Peace Ruiz and his wife, who had been visiting friends on the other side of the track. This Mexican horse thief be- longed to the old school and was as po- lite as he was chivalrous. When he saw the lady walking to town he gallantly offered her his mount, which was ac- cepted, Judge Ruiz and the horse thief walking behind. During the walk the Mexican said he had never been in Sol omonville (although he had been drunk here for two days)- When they reached Frank Dysart's corner the Mexican said he would be compelled to leave them at this point. and, mounting the stolen an imal, rode off up the river. Shortly af- terward Agent Brown put in an appear ance with a tale of woe about a lost horse. The horse was described and it suddenly dawned on the justice that he had been keeping company with horse thief. The trail of this daring cavalier was followed as far as the Brown ranch and it is thought by the officers that he has gone in the direction of Eagle crek. This man is supposed to be one of the murder5rs of Howe and Wheeler. He was seen on foot with a Winchester rifle in that vicinity shortly after the killing. Another Mexican is also under suspicion. His mistress recently left Morenci and is now at San Jose, and the officers expect to locate their man by keeping a close watch on her move ments.
