GOLFERS WONDERFUL ESCAPE
An Experience from Which Noted

An Experience from Which n Noted
Hurter Never Fully Recovered.
One of the most remarkable instances
of the escape of white man FROM the
Indians MAS that of John Golfer. a IA.
nous hunter and trapper. On the dag in
question he and his companion were sur
rounded by GOO savage warriors. The
companion WAS instantly killed and Col
ter was captured. His foes had 10 in

wanted the sport of putting him 10 the
torture, or at least of playing with him
as cat plays with a mouse. The chief
asked if be could run. lie said. Not
much" He was released and told TO
save his life if he could.
Golfer darfed away at high speed. and
most of the 600 savages set off after him.
There was a plain before him SIN miles
wide, bounded on the far side 10y river
frlnged with trees. Golfer had always
been famous as runner, and his prdc-
tice now STOOD him in good stead. lie
made straight across the plain for the
stream. and the yells of mis- pursuers lent
him wings. His foes had removed every
shred of clothes from his body and the
plain was covered with prickly pears,
so that his unprotected feet We're lacer-
ated AT every stride.
Halfway across the plain he glanced
back and saw that only a few Indians
We're following him. Again be ran on.
and soon realized that one of his pur-
suers was nearing him. He redoubled
his efforts and blood gushed from his
nOstrils and flowed down over his breast
The fringe of trees WAS near, but a hastA
backward look showed him the pursuing
brave close upon MIN with spear raised.
Moved by Il sudden impulse Golfer
stopped. turned and faced the savage
with outstretched arms. The Indian was
SO taken aback at this unexpected move
ment that he stumbled and fell This
was Coulter's opportunity. He ran back,
seized the spear, and pinning bis antag-
onist to the ground, ran on.
Other savages came on, fieTcer then

Golfer reached the trees, plunged into
their midst and then into the river and
swan to a pile of driftwood that had
lodged. He dived beneath it and stuck
his head up between two logs covered
with smaller timbers and brush. The
Indians came up and searched for sew
eral hours. but failed TO find him. Again
and again they walked over the drift
wood. Luckily they did not fire it. as
he feared they would. At last they went
away. Then Golfer swan out and fed
through the forest.
Seven days he went on. living on roots
and berries. with no clothing, until Mt

Big Horn river. He never full recov-

Bishop Potter Denounces Spirit OF
Caste.

Bishop Henry c. Potter of New York,
in his second address of the series on the
responsibilities citizenship at Yale dis
cussed the subject of the relation of the
citizen and the capitalist and argued that
the panacea for the labor situation is not
any particular method or plan, but great
er confidence between employer and em-
plOye, between capitalist and laborer and
disregard of any caste distinctions
almost the worst enemy of human so
ciety is the spirit of caste. and the tragic
element in the constitution of our mod
ern society is that under forms of gov
eminent that profess long ago to have
removed and abandoned it. il still rears
its head in forms more insolent and more
mischievous than any it ever has as
sumed; for while we may be patient with
the caste spirit when it survives as a
product of earlier ages of tribal distinc-
tion, or feudal tradition. or distinguished
ancestry or social culture. it becomes,
when we see it as too often we see it
today, the mere incarnation, then say.
it becomes a menace alike to the right
of the weak and the freedom of the poor

tically insepnrable barriers from 4 caste

BY vote of the executive committee
OF the League of American Wheelmen
the once powerful New Jersey division
OF the organization was recently abOl-
ished. For two years the state officers
did little. II anything, for the league;
hence the drastic procedure Of the ma
uonal officials. At their meeting dur
Ing the Atlantic City meet the national
officials decided that a strenuous policy
was necessary TO reinvigorate the or
ganizatiOn, and the wiping out Of the
New Jersey division is the first move
in that direction
1t is believed to foreshadow a gen
eral shakeup Of the league. In other
states in which apathetic officers retain
titles, but perform no service, il is ex-
pected that the AK will also fall and
their affairs be taken over by the ma
tonal officials until aggressive men are
found in the several districts.

crossties were laid on top of the ground most of the way and the rails nailed oowh to them, and the job. from raliroad en- gineer's point of view, Is very imperfect. But the Western officials did not know when some property holder along the ai- ley might get out an injunction anu the track-laying was done in great hurry. Of course 1t Is not known that this IS the reason of the rapid track-laying, but 1t IS the supposition. At any rate, the work of lowering the crossties and rails to the surface will now have to be done, ana It will take a large squad of hands several days to do the work i'll a thorough man. ner,
 The bridge across the cut on Franklin street is a temporary affair. and 1t IS doubtful If the Western would attempt to run an engine across 1t. TWO plies or crossties were put in the shape of pens on each side of the wagon way, sills were laid from one to the other and the rails laid lengthwise on these sills or sleepers Of course a good bridge will be built later on, but the great question with the West ern was to get possession of Peacock s Alley all the way. and putting down the roadbed in a workmanlike manner can be done later on.
 It developed this morning that the West ern wanted to put down another track on the river bluff back of the old St. James block There Is about fifty feet of land between the edge of the bluff and the block of buildings. The Western officials desire to run In switch about twenty feet from their main track. This will enable them to run cars on the switch for those merchants who have stores else where than on the south side of Water Street. so that they can drive their drays there and unload the cars consigned to them. and thus save the distance from there down to the yards below Sylvan Street.
