is a unique character in the middle
west. He is a man of strength, in
domitable resolution and original
thought. The nomination was entirely
unsought and the compliment came as
complete surprise to him.
The law, the clergy and the press
have numbered Mr. Tibbles in their
ranks. He is now the veteran editor
of the Nebraska Independent, week
ly paper. AS an editorial writer he is
aggressive, merciless and sarcastic,
but never INDUCES in personalities.
In the days Of the grasshopper
plague in Nebraska Mr.. Tibbles at
tracted some attention by his uncom-
promising dispute with the noted sci
entists who were then here studying
the subject and trying to stop the
flight of the pests. The scientists de-
clared that the grasshoppers did not
travel at night and devastated the
fields only during the day, laughing at
Mr.. Tibbles' assertion that the pests
were active during the night as we'll
as the day. Mr.. Tibbles proved his
point and turned the laugh by send
ing up at night huge kite literally
smeared with tar. When he pulled 1t
down the next day hundreds Of grass
hoppers were stuck fast to the tar.

Three Times Hanged.

When the Kansas Nebraska bill was
agitating the country, and John
Brown was organizing his raiders,
Mr.. Tibbles. who had been educated
for the law, was practicing in Council
Bluffs. He became converted by John
Browns arguments and left the law
to follow the intrepid leader.
Quantrel, with a party of his
"borders," once gave chase to a few
of John Browns men. and captured
Tribes, his, comrades escaping into a
nearby hiding place. Three times
Quantrell and his men hanged Mr..
Tibbles on a convenient tree, cutting
him down twice with the promise of
his life if he would not tell the where
abouts of his comrades. He stead
tasty refused, and the third time the
"borders' strung him up and rode
away. AS soon as they dared, Mr..
Tibbles' comrades crept from the
brush and cut him down-none too
soon, as it took hours to revive him.
Mr.. Tibbles tried the ministry after
the civil war. For several years he
was a Methodist minister, and later
a Presbyterian, but strict creeds and
UNCONVENTIONAL boundaries were irk-
some to him and he left both church
because not enough latitude in speech
was allowed. Hedrifted into newspa-
per work, and in that and in politics
he has seemed to find his niche.
While he was employed by DR.. Mil
Ter on the old Omaha Herald, Mr..
Tibbles married his first wife, an Eng
lish woman. He built a home on
south nineteenth STREET, Omaha,
where the Great Western terminal
stands. When Mrs. Tibbles died she
left two daughters, one of whom is
now Mrs, Barris and lives in Council
Bluffs. The other, Mrs. Herbert Bates
lives in Brooklyn.
When the Ponca habeas corpus case
came up a few years after the death
of his wife, Mr. Tibbles became much
interested in the rights Of the Ponca
Indians and was engaged as one of the
leading counsel. He went to the res
ervation to look up the case, and a
beautiful young Indian girl, popularity
known as "Bright Eyes, was rec
commended to him as one who would
be apt to give him clear and intelli-
gent testimony. He met the girl and
became greatly attracted by her unu-
sual beauty and quickness Of mind
She had received an excellent educa-
ton at an eastern college in Eliza

"Bright Eyes," who was christened
Yosette-later changed to the Eng
lish form, Susette-La Flesche, was
one Of the seven children of Joseph
La F1esche, chief of the Omahas, and
his wife, Mary, who was the only

woman Ni-Ko-Mi, and DR.. John Gale

Young Indian girl to attend the col
lege in Elizabeth, n. J. During the
four years she spent there she took
every prize offered In the school ex-
cept those for mathematics, and was
graduated with the highest honors.
She returned to the reservation and
the next three years We're full of
hardships. Then she became a teacher
in the Indian school at a salary of
500 a month. She had taught for sew
eral wears when she met Mr.. Tibbles.
Mrs. Tibbles, in accordance with the
advice of Bishop Clarkson, went east,
soon after her marriage, accompanied
by her husband, ON lecturing tour in
behalf of her people. She was a win
ming speaker and she was very effec-
tive in influencing legislation in behalf
of the Indians and in betterng their
condition.
Praised by Longfellow.
When the poet Longfellow, at his
urgent request, was introduced to
Mrs. Tibbles, he said: "This is Min

NapoIeon's Height.

How tall was Napoleon? Bourrienne,
who, according to a writer, had ample
opportunities for observation, says that
he was five feet two inches. Captain
Maitland, who measured him on the
Bellerophon, found his distinguished
passenger to be five feet seven inches.
Constant says that Napoleon was five
feet one and a half inches. Bunbury
insists that he was not less than Ave
feet six inches. Napoleon chose short
men invariably for difficult enterprises.
He was convinced that Caesar and
Alexander were men of diminutive
stature. Speaking of the achievements
of his generals, Napoleon said that
Kleber had "all the qualities and de-
fects of q tall man."

The superstition that associates the
horseshoe with good luck is very old
It is said to prevail not only among
English speaking people, but in all
races of Europe and Asia. Antigua
ries are undecided whether it's origin
has to do with the material from which
the horseshoe is made or with its
shape Some writer's on this subject
have surmised that the lucky qualities
attributed to the horseshoe were de-
rived from its fancied resemblance to
the halo pictured about the heads of
saints, but this connection is highly
improbable, as it is known that the su-
perstition certainly antedates Christi

KILLED HIS BABY SISTER.
Remarkable Case of InfantiIe Crime
In New York.

Remarkable Case of InfantiIe Crime
In New York.
New York, Oct. 12.-Jealousy on the
part of boy two and one-half years
old against his baby sister, one month
old, has led to the death of the Lat.
ter at the hands of the boy.
The tragedy occurred in the family
of Nicholas Robinson at Nyack, N. Y.
Since the little girl came a month
ago, the boy exhibited many times ev.
licences of jealous rage. When at.
tempts were made to interest him in
the little one he frequently ran away
crying and once he upset the cradle.
Finally he was left alone for a few
minutes in the room where the baby
lay asleep. The boy was playing with
a small bronze statuette. Suddenly
he cried to his mother:
Hurry! Look at the baby!"
She ran into the room and found
the statuette covered with blood. The
baby's skull had been fractured and
she was dead when the doctor ar
rived. At least six bruises were
found on the head, all of which were
struck before the mother was called.
After an inquest the coroner said:
cit was a remarkable case of infan.
tile crime. The boy evidently thought
he had been supplanted in the affec.
tions of the parents. The latter de.
serve great sympathy, but rendered
the only verdict possible that the baby
was killed by her brother, whose ten.
der age makes him irresponsible for
the deed
When asked where his sister was
after the funeral, the boy replied:
Baby has gone away"

the English holding it against the ar

experts say now that no one can carry
Gibraltar. and those who have seen
the English guns on the rocky hills
and the English battleships in the quiet
harbor will agree with the experts.
The only way in which Gibraltar can

Morse was shot and instantly killed
and VIII Henderson was wounded in

with shot in other parts of his body.
Both parties were white and the weap.

Just how the affair started and who
did the shooting will probably never
be known. 1t is known that bad
blood had existed between Moore and
Henderson and it is said each had
been carrying a shotgun for the other
for some time.
From what can be gathered the
basis of the trouble seems to have
been of domestic nature.
