whole scheme worked well. The tired

their war horses near them, and.

several picked horses from our band.

all excited over the depredations o.
these renegades. They had murdered
right and left, had captured severa
hundred mules and horses and destroy
ed wagon trains. as we could tell by
the trail of some shod animals What
intensified our desire to punish or cap
ture them was the fact that they had
some white captives-Mrs. Alderdice
whose husband and children they had
Killed, and Mrs. Weigel, whose hus
band and family had also been mas
safred, and these two women were
known to be still alive and with them.
At last we got on their trail and had
almost daily skirmishes, and General
Carr decided to use some stratagem
To see IL we could not get them in a
tight place. He consulted with me.
and after a day of continual skirmish-
LIZ nc n,sht attack lie ordered a
retrograde movement. which created
u good deal Of discussion between the
officers and men at the time. Appar-
emily abandoning the pursuit, he re-
tired as il going back to the fort, and
hl two or three days, as he surmised,
the Indians were nowhere to be seen,
having come to the conclusion that
we were disheartened and that they
could with impunity take q little re-
pose themselves. This was exactly
what our willy commander desired, as
he Intended to retrace his steps and
catch them sleeping. So, being sure
that there were no Indians in sight,
he packed all the grub possible on the
mules, burned the wagons and i'm

make forced marches in their direc-
ill.,
AS had surmised, they were head

the sand hills, which formed beau

camp ground. Striking their trail by
tu5ging from their daily campfires, we

JOHNSON TO CLEAN 'EM UP.
Champion Pueiist to Take on Several
Before He Meets Jeffries.

Evidently Jack johnson, the worlds
champion pugilist, intends to make a
grand cleanup of the heavyweights be-
fore he meets Jim Jeffries. Besides
being matched to meet Stanley Ketch-
ell in October, the big fellow has agreed
to take on Al Kaufman, the California
Hercules in ten round bout before
one of the clubs in San Francisco Sept,
8. Johnson has announced that he
will give Philadelphia Jack" O'Brien
return engagement. Jim Barry, the
Chicago sluggcr, who has been hurling
challenges right and left, may also be
taken on by the champion the latter
part Of September.
Johnson's apparent willingness to
fight Kaufman before he meets Ketch-
el shows that he has little respect for
Billy Delaney's big heavyweight
If the bout comes off with both men
in superb condition it should result in
good battle, with the chances of vic
tory in favor of johnson. While Kauf-
man has not set the pugilistic world
afire with his performances n the
ring. he has shown improvement IN
every battle in which he has engaged
in the last year or two. True, it took
him thirty-nine rounds to dispose of
Jim Barry of Chicago in California
recently, and later he failed to stop
Tony Ross in ten rounds In New York,
but his manager, Billy Delaney, says
that it was at his request that Al per
mitted these fellows to stay so long
The clever manager also states that
the experience his protege gained in
these two battles will greatly aid him
In his contest with Johnson.
AS an amateur Kaufman rejoiced
under the sobriquet of Zone Round
Kaufman" having knocked out many
Of his opponents in the first round.
While Kaufman Is as big as Jeffries
AID is clever, Johnson should defeat
him The latter can hit harder and is
far more clever than his opponent

VISIONS OF THE FUTURE.

Bv NJ r. DODSON
By N. B. DODSON.

The spirit Of progress among the
younger generation Of Afro-Americans
is rapidly crystallizing itself into
large number of the well educated
among them to specialize along certain
lines of literary work and in business.
This desire is not confined to any one
section of the country, but is widely
diversified. A broader vision of the
opportunities of the future by which
they may make the best possible use
of their literary education and special
training along other lines of industry
is causing them to bestir themselves.
A young woman who has had sew
eral years of experience as public
school teacher in Brooklyn, n. Y, and
who now resides at 81 Dixwell avenue,
New Haven. Conn, is Mrs. Sara Lee
Fleming, who is specializing as a
dramatic reader. She is graduate of
the girls high school in Brooklyn and
is the possessor of a refined voice of
commanding qualities. Mrs. Fleming
has made careful study of Dunbar's
poems and the characterization of
children's verses and popular songs.

past summer Mrs. Fleming gave a
recital at the fashionable Beechwood
hotel. through the influence of Miss

guests. Her program consisted of $
lections from Dunbars poems, which
were most dramatically rendered and
which proved Mrs. Fleming to be an
accomplished elocutionist. Her audi
ence was very appreciative. and she
was warmly urged to repeat the re-
ci.al. The head waiter, Mr.. Fred
Logan, has booked her for an early
appearance. Much favorable comment
was aroused by her unaffected man

assisted by the BeechwOod quartet.

PLAN WIRELESS FEATS
Messages to Be Sent 5000 Miles
Between Station in East
and Warships.
HIGH TOWER ON BRANT ROCK
Scout Cruisers Salem and Birming-
ham Are Equipped with 1nstru-
ments for Experiments.

The navy is soon to conduct expert
ments in long-disance wireless teleg-
raphy. Impressed with the import
ance of a system which will in cases
of necessity transmit messages from
some place on the Atlantic seaboard
for a distance of 5000 miles, the mat
ter was taken up in earnest almost
year ago. The desirability of such
long distance communication, the Off
Gals say, is obvious, for in times OF
war it would prove invaluable to the
government.
By its means the Navy Department
will be able to control and direct
readily from shore the movements OF
the fleet. This, together with the
proposition to install wireless appara-
tus on ships so that they may be able
to communicate with each other at
distance of 1000 miles, will put the
government in the position where d.
rections given to one vessel quickly
may be transmitted to another.
The experiments in communicating
5000 miles are to take place at Brant
Rock, Mass, beginning probably late
in December. Instruments constructed
for this purpose have been installed in
a tower over 400 feet high. Two scout
cruisers, the Salem and the Birming-
ham, are to be utilized as receiving
stations. Repairs to these vessels now
under way will be completed Dec. 4,
soon after which they will leave the
United States for a trip which will
keep them within a radius OF 5000
miles of Brant Rock, the present pro-
gram contemplating cruise from the
Scottish coast downward to the west
African coast and also in the American
tropics. Meanwhile messages will be
sent to each of these vessels, both of
which have been equipped with ten
kilowatt-power receiving apparatus,
capable, it is asserted, of recording the
long-distance communications. At the
same time the vessels will exchange
messages for the purpose of testing
the apparatus for communication
1000 miles at sea-

Assassins Shoot Italian Second
Time-Rouses Police.
Fifty arrests were made by the Chi
cago police in efforts to clear up the
shooting of Salvatore Pinello, who was
followed to Chicago from hospital in
Streator, ILL.,. where he had lain three
months after being shot by agents of
the Black Hand. and was shot a sec
ond time in Chicago. Clews in pos
session of detectives were expected to
lead to the capture of Salvatore and
Stefano Uttida, brothers, who were ac-
cused of the crime by Pinello. Pinello
was wounded the second time with a
shotgun. Physicians at the hospital.
to which he was taken, held but little
hope for his recovery. His body was
full of shot. The shooting of Pinello
was the sixth charged to the Black
Hand society within a year. Pinello
told the police that he came to this
country three years ago from Italy
and went to Streator, where he was a
section hand for the Santa Fe Rail-
road. The sufferer had not been in
the town long when the Uttida broth
ers. who were in Chicago, began to
write him threatening letters demand
ing money. I'VE will tell the police
that you are a member of the Black
Hand society unless money is sent us"
was written in one letter. The threats
continued and Pinello became desper-
ate. He threatened TO call on the
police to arrest the men annoying
him. The following day he was shot
near his home.
