fights with the Indians during 1870 and
1871, and in all of these the Fifth in
fantry took an active part.
In 1S74-5 the Indian difficulties be-
gan in earnest. Gen. Miles went lout
at the head of a combined cavalry and
infantry force against the Indians Of
Camp Supply, Indian Territory. They
came upon. the Indians near the head
waters of the. Washitas and had a fierce
running fight for several days. This
was in August, 1874. - e
On Sept 9, of the same year, the In
dams attacked Gen. Miles supply train,
and on the 18th and 18th the Indians
harassed some of his scouting parties
and killed several men. On Nov. s,
near McClelland creek, Texas, a party of
Gen. Miles soldiers attacked a large
camp of Indians, routing them with a
loss of much of their property.
The military operations against the
hostiles of the Indian territory we're
continued during the winter and spring
of 1875. Gen. Miles had command of
the entire expedition. In speaking of
this campaign Gen. Sheridan said: I'm

RUSSIAN SPIRITS

ST. PETERSBURG, Aug. 8.--With the
exception of a few remote districts, the
state spirits monopoly is now univer-
sally in force throughout the Russian en-
pire. and though vodka or corn
brandy, the national drink, is the spirit
in force, all spirits and liquors are more
or less affected.
The monopoly was first applied by way
of experiment in portion of European
Russia, and since 1895 has been gradually
extended to the remainder of the en-

Vodka and drinks of any description can
only be obtained by retail sellers from

SOUTHERN BLACKS DON'T
WANT SOCIAL EQUALITY
Say They Are Safer in South, Where
Ministers Do Not Incite.

MADISON, Ca, Aug. S.-Resolutions
adopted by the conference of the Afri-
can Methodist Episcopal church, in
session here, commend the white peo-
pie of the South for refusing the ne
groes social equality, and declare the
South the best place for the negro. The
resolutions are in part as follows:
I'VE commend the Southern white
man because he refuses to let negroes
drink at his founts, eat in his cafes, and
sleep in his hotels, for the following
reasons:
1T forces the negro to build his own
resorts, teaches him business and turns
flood of money to negro vaults and
bank accounts. 1t gives his boy and
girl work and establishes thrift and
economy.
1--WE find that wholesale butchery of
negroes has gained a stronghold in the
North,where it is being cited and urged
by some who claim heirship to the min
istry and place among Gods people.
I'VE believe, after carefully recalling
facts, that the negro is as safe in the
South as in the North, or safer-safer
because he can earn a living in any
avocation in the South that he pos
sesses ability to do; safer, because no
Southern preacher is on record as hav-
ing pleaded to 5000 people to burn
human being"

ed in rallying a small force of the Six
ty-first New York volunteers, and,
forming a line at right angles with the
breastworks, swept off the enemy, re-
capturing Meningitis guns, and retook
a considerable portion of his lfne.Y
Again Hancock said: cat this time
Gen. Miles and Gen. Gregg offered to
retake their breastworks entire, but
Gen. Gibbons stated that his division
could not retake any of his lines"
During the operations from Oct. 25
to Oct % Gen. Miles held line several
miles in length with a little more than
5000 men. For his services in this
campaign he was recommended to be
made major general by brevet.
Gen. Miles was in the Appomattox
campaign from March 29 to April 9,
1855. On April 2, a few days before the
surrender, Gen. Grant sent dispatch
to Col Bowers, in which he said: Il
have just heard from Gen. Miles. He
attacked what was left of Heth's and
WiIcoxs divisions at Switzerland Sta
ton and routed them, capturing about
1000 prisoners"
Later on the same day Gen. Grant
wrote to Gen. Meade: Miles has made
a big thing of it and deserves the high
est praise for the pertinacity with
which he stuck to the enemy until he
wrung from him victory"
After the war Gen. Miles was ap-
pointed commander of the military dis
trict of Fort Monroe. 1t was during
this service Gen. Miles held Jefferson
Davis, the president of the Confederacy,
as a prisoner. He served during the
reconstruction period in the Second
military district, embracing the states
of North and South Carolina, and was
in active charge during The elections
in 1867. -

wanted no rations or money and desir-
ed to live free as an Indian. He gave
no assurances of his good faith Gen.
Miles told him fatty that if he did not
accept the conditions of the United
States government he would be con-
sidered as hostile.
The Indians showed fight irnmedi-
ately. There was.a battle that lasted
all day. Gen. Miles forced Sitting
Bulls warriors down Bad Route creek
and chased them forty-two miles.
There were 1000 Indians in the at
lacking party. Six days later 1000
men, women and children surrendered
to Gen. Miles. Sitting Bull escaped to
the north, where he, was Joined later by
several other chiefs. Gen. Miles sent
out 434 men after him, but the trail
was obliterated by snow. On Dec Z
Sitting Bulls camp of 100 lodges was
overtaken and dispersed, and later Sit
ting Bull was chased again into the
north.
Crazy Horse and Sitting Bull contin-
ued to make trouble. Early in January,
1877, Gen. Miles, with a force of 436
officers and men and two pieces of ar
tillery, moved out against Crazy
Horse. There Were two skirmishes in
which there were some losses on each
side. The column drove the Indians
