Hernandez has been a revolutionist
ever since he was 20 years old. He got
his first taste Of powder away back in
1868, and there has been few years
since then that he has not spent more
or less time In the field. Venezuela
has not had a president in all that
period whom Hernandez has not tried
to overthrow. His last attempt was
against the present President Castro.
1t was only two days AFTER Castro
busted Andrade that Hernandez raised
the standard Of revolt against him, and
less than a year ago the beaten leader
was wearing 6O-pound shackles and
subsisting as best he could on banana
peels while suffering the imprison-
ment that Castro had sentenced him
to. Had it not been for the joint at
tack of Germany and England on
Venezuela last summer Hernandez
would probably still be in prison. But
in the face Of the country's peril he
was liberated by Castro, and he is now
regarded as one Of the Venezuelan
presidents strongest supporters.

A curious Deed.

A curious instrument has been filed
in the Office of Register of Deeds
Winchell of Gregory county, with the
request that it be placed on record.
1t is in the form of a quitclaim deed,
and was executed by Walking Shield,
a Sioux Indian murderer who was
hanged in this city Oct. "a last. The
deed purports to transfer to one Mrs.
Z. X. Bennett a certain tract of land
on the Rosebud Indian reservation in
Gregory, the consideration being "the
care and custody of my child from.
its birth until his DEATH" The deed
does not recite that the land is con-
tanned in an Indian allotment, and in
asmuch as the title is still in the gov
eminent it is not transferable. The
register of deeds is perpleNed as to
what to do with the deed and has
written to the interior department
at Washington for advice as to his
course.

her marriage to Mrs. Cushman =. DAVIS.
the late chairman of the foreign rela-
tons committee, the social feud
which that marriage inspired, the po-
lltical fortunes which it made and
married, all %conspired to lend to it a
romantic interest. Added to this was
the interest which attached to the
woman herself in the long period of
her social prominence IL Washington.
1t was as Mrs. Cushman II. Davis
that she held her place in the life Of
the capital, and it will doubtless be
Dy the same name that she will DE re-
1erred to hereafter, in spite Of the
ceremony which has made her Mrs.
Hunter Doll. White Senator Davis
was alive his wife played q conspicu-
GUS part. and this al especially true
after he became chairman Of the for
elgn relations committee, which car
RES with it a certain social prestige
belonging to no other craftsmanship in
either senate or house.
When the Davises went to Paris at
the time Of the meeting OF the peace
commission, Of which the Minnesota
senator was a member, Mrs. Davis be-
came easily the most conspicuous Of
the women attached to the mission,
and her doings were chronicled on
both sides of the Atlantic throughout
the time Of the sittings. Her recep-
ions were the most crowded, and the
number of notables in her train was
greater than that Of any other Ameri-
can woman.

much a profund secret as possible. And
now the machine has been seen and
Judging from Its antics is mor of a
fish than a bird, for it made straight
for the water after beginning its fight.
Prof. Langley has been at work on his
invention for over 20 years. He is an
old man now and If after the damaged
machine is repaired it should still re-
fuse to fly it will prove bitterly disap-
pointing to him. He has devoted his"
best energies and beside ha:. spent
$4,000 of a government appropria-
ton made for military purposes in his
endeavor.
About a month ago he sent his ap-
paratus down the Potomac in the keep
ing of a party Of scientists and ma
chinists, there to make the all-impor-
tant trial under the most approved
conditions. They have a houseboat
from which the machine has just made
its disastrous flight and all sorts of
other paraphernalia. In their trail went
representatives of every important
newspaper in the country. The scien-
lists have devoted themselves to keep
ing out Of the way of the reporters.
They have been living at the Mount
Vernon Ducking club, Of which Prof.
Langley is a member, and they have
relentlessly driven out everybody who
ventured too near the sacred precincts.
Now it happens that there are other
members of the club than Prof. Lang
ley and they resented its monopoly by
the scientists to the exclusion of every
body else. Consequently one of these.
Truxton Beale, who was once United
States minister to Persia, notified the
professor of his intention to occupy
the club with a few Of his friends and
the friends he chose were the news
paper reporters who mad hitherto been
kept out III the swamp. Then it was
the scientists who had to shift for
themselves.
So much for the contest which had
almost eclipsed the interest in the fly
ing machine itself.
