Wright expedition and was one of the
thirty white men engaged in the So
called Ben Wright massacre, Wright
was severely censured for this by the
United States officials and stigmatized
as a murderer. A howl was raised
throughout the eastern press. many
insisting that he be court martialed
and shot.
sThe whole secret of the killing of
those thirty Indians lay in the In
dams treachery. We had these Mo-
loquas (since known as Modocs)
penned on a peninsula that ran into a
this side of the California line. Es-
cape was impossible, so they sent a
messenger, under a flag OF truce, ask
ing for peace conference, to be held
at ~ O'Clock the following day, which
Wright Immediately granted. The
significance of the hour did not occur
to him. At the noon hour the men
would be engaged in eating dinner or
attending to their horses, thus being
entirely off their guard.
During the night squaw came
into camp and informed Wright that
the Indians would all attend the coun-
ell; that they would wear their blan-
would be concealed. and at a given
signal from the chief all the whites
were to be murdered In cold blood.
This, you observe, after promising to
come unarmed.
s.The next day everything in camp
went on as usual. The most wary In
dian eye could detect nothing in the
white mans camp to indicate any
knowledge of the premeditated
treachery.
"At the appointed hour, while the
whites were apparently engaged
about their camp duties, the Indians
marched solemnly into camp, and fell
into such positions as enabled them
to observe every man in camp, with
the chief facing Capt Wright

SHE HANDED HIM A LEMON
British Washer Is Taught Lesson by
American Woman.

New York, Aug. e.-There was one
disgruntled Briton in the first cabin
of the Cunard liner Carmania when 1t
steamed into port today, for, while his
sense of humor from an American
standpoint is not over great, he has
been taught that the United States
vernacular is most expressive.

The Englishman smiled and put out
his hand to receive Mrs. Jackson's gift

A hundred passengers who had
grouped themselves around the parties
howled with joy.
Then the import of the hint struck
the "mesher.' He rushed to his
stateroom and did not appear again
until 1t was time to leave the ship at
her pier.

and instead were killed. Not one of them
escaped, and so sudden and unexpected
was the attack and so fatal in its results,
that not one of them had time to re-
move his blanket or raise his gun, and
they all had their guns concealed under
their blankets.
This" continued Mr. Chance 'is the
true story of the so-cal1ed Ben Wright

killing or being killed and Wright took
the only sensible course, and killed. Who,

There is no reason whatever why all

SLAUGHTER OF JEWS.
Further Horrible Details of the Sack

Tangier, Aug. 9.-Horrible details of
the slaughter of Jews. the maltreat-

of the place began, both the Moorish
soldiers and the Arabs revenged them

sacked the custom house and burned a

THEY WED CELESTIALS.
Two Chicago Girls EIope With Saffron
HRed CelestiaIs.

Chicago. Aug. 9.-Displeased with the
caucasian candidates who had present
ca themselves, or, perhaps, owing to
the entire lack of such candidates for
their hands, two American girls, Lillian
and Ann Feohy of Chicago, yesterday
eloped to Crown Point, Ind, with two
local Cinnamon, zee Coy and Schick
Ju, and celebrated a double wedding.
The double alliance between the sub
1eets or the Son of Heaven and Uncle
Sam took place before Justice of the
Peace H. P. Nicholson. There was no
attempt at secrecy. The girls stepped
boldly from the train, and quite as
eorts to Judge Nicholson's Office, fol-
lowed by the floating population of
Crown Point, which was anxious 20

with the apostles of chop suey, they
quietly, albeit defiantly, marched
through the crowd and return to Chr
cago.
The eaters of birds nests, sharks
fins, and like delicacies were evidently
proud of their American conquests. They
had clothed themselves in the height
of style for the occasion. Frock coats.
white waistcoats, trousers of a grayish
hue, and top hats, hiding the coiled
pigtails, made up their wedding re-
gala. There was no indication of the
Oriental save in the little brown
on the bias.
The floating population which wit
messed the wedding was several times
on the point of starting a demonstra-
ton, but finally decided to refrain and
take the affair good-naturedly.

OLD INDIAN FIGHTER.
Bill Chance. Whose Life Has Been
Crowded With Many Adventures.

One of the most picturesque charac-
tiers in the Northwest is Bill Chance,
who is spending the evening of his
days in Seaside, content to let the
strenuous life he has lived be only a
pleasant memory.
Bill Chance is a man of striking ap-
pearance, six feet two inches tall, and
although n years old, straight as an
arrow. He is probably more familiar
with the Indians and the Indian wars
of the coast than any man living, hav-
ing been an active participant in al
most every war with them since he
crossed the plains in 1852. He speaks
several Indian dialects, and Is as ia
miliar with the Chinook jargon as he is
with English.
During the Rogue River Indian war
he served as a volunteer and partici-
pated in the battle of Hungry Hill, one
of the most sanguinary fights of all
that cruel campaign. His description
of the atrocities he witnessed is so
vivid that listening to them almost

their hands in horror at the thought
of white men thirsting for the blood
of those fiends. AS a matter OF fact
the men who know the cruelty and
blood thirstiness OF the red man have
no more hesitancy in killing an Indian
than they would RATHER. OF the two

HEAT TOO MUCH FOR HIM.
First Death Due to Torrid Weather
Is Reported.

The first and only death from heat
proStration occurred last Wednesday
when the pampered and cherished
Angora cat of Mrs. D. J. Hathaway,
who lives in North Topeka, laid down
and let itself die, thereby wasting the
S5 good dollars which was its quoted
price.
Last week Mrs. Hathaway brought
Pussy from the cool mountain breezes
of Colorado. In order to make amends
for the difference in temperature she
bathed the feline each day and kept
it carefully in the house. But the kitty
preferred the cool of the grave to the
heat of the last week and ungratefully
died in spite of it's mistress efforts to
make it comfortable.

WHAT IS THE MATTER.
Only One Entry In Good Roads Con-
test. Says Maj. Anderson.

There is nothing like the interest
expected in the good roads prize con-
test of the Commercial club. Good
substantial prizes have been offered
for the best work done on the roads
in the vicinity of Topeka and the
lack of interest is hard to explain.
Major T. j. Anderson said this morn
ing: THE Commercial club is won
dering if the people of the county are
going to take advantage of the prizes
offered for the good roads. The limit
for entering expires on the 18th of
this month. So far but one entry has
been made. OF course there will have
to be competition in order to secure
the prizes. 1t Is barely possible that
the people of the county have all the
money they want and are not looking
for any help from the city"
