Killed an Indian.

Deputy Sheriff Ryan was called upon
to arrest an Indian in Austin Sunday
for being drunk and beating a squaw.
Officer Ryan went to the camp in the
lower part Of town where the Indian was
and placed him under arrest and started
for Jail. After going a short distance
the Indian, who is a big, powerful buck,
told Mr.. Ryan that he would not go with
him and made the threat that he would
kill him. At this instance Ryan started
to force his prisoner to come with him
w%hereupon the Indian jumped the officer
and caught him around the throat
and began to choke him, and DO doubt
would have accomplished his purpose in
killing him when Mr.. Ryan pulled his
revolver and killed him. He was shot
three times, twice in the left breast near
the heart, and once 10 the right breast.
The Indian is from Smoky Valley.
The Reveille says:
A Coroner's jury was impaneled and
after viewing the remains and hearing
the testimony rendered find that the
killing was excusable and justifable in
law.
A letter received last night from Aus.
tin says that the Indians are congregat-
ing in large numbers and discussing the
killing and has caused some little uneas-
mess among the whites. This is a good
lesson for them and they should here
after bear in mind that it is poor policy
to disobey an officer if they do not want
to be 6t subjects for the "happy hunting
grounds"

The EARLY Training Of CAuAren.
There Is no lesson that mothers
should strive more earnestly to teach
their children than that Of self 70
straint. It il from the lack Of self
control, from self indulgence. that all
the sorrowse and troubles of life are
sure to spring.
The first lesson in self restraint must
be taught very early In life-in fact,
within very few hours of the birth of
your child. The boy who is not in
dulged in all his whims is learning
lesson that will aid him to avoid self
indulgences in after life that would be
imprudent and harmful. and his char
acter will be all the nobler for the self
restraint that will become more and
more easy for him to practice as the
years roll by. While you are teaching
this lesson to your child you are
strengthening your own character II
you are wise and just, and you will
learn to conquer many faults that have
become great through indulgence for
the sake of the little one whom you so
dearly love.
Do not let your love and sympa-
thy for your little child le"l you into
indulgences that will in after years
prove his undoing, but learn to restrain
him for his own good. 1t is an old say
ing that an unselfish mother makes a
selfish child. There is great deal of
truth in this, and 1t Is wiser for the
mother to conquer her own unselfish-
ness than to give way to the child
