WASHINGTON, d. c., Nov. 10
The United States will demand an
instant apology for the murder and
lynching of two of it's citizens, and
will take q firm stand in the mat
ter. That the decision, which, 1t
is believed this afternoon, has been
reached by the state department.
The officials are strengthened in
their attitude by late advices that
United States Ambassador James
Lane Wilson was attacked by riot
ers and that bomb was hurled at
him.
Secretary Knox today received a
long cipher report from Wilson
which resulted In a hasty consulta-
tion of the diplomatic forces. What
the message contained is not
known. The officials refused to
say whether there was any refer
ence to the attempted assassina-
tion of the ambassador.
After the conference today be-
tween Secretary Knox and Mexican
Ambassador De La Bara, 1t was
announced that the state depart
ment will at once commence a
searching investigation into the
lynching of Antonio Rodriguez. IL
the facts warrant the United States
will make formal apology to Mex
leo. This, however, will not affect
the attitude OF the government with
refecence to the present rioting in
MeXicoACfty. No matter what de-
velops In Texas, the state depart
ment officials, 1t Is said, will hold
the Mexican government RESPONSE
BILE for the outraees against Ameri-
can citizens and will demand rep
aration. Unless President Diaz ac-
cedes to the demands of the United
States 1t Is predicted In diplomatic
circles here, we will at once find
himself In one of the gravest en-
tanglements in which he has been
concerned since he has been the
domiant power in the Mexican gov.
ernment.
The situation has caused consld-
cradle worry to the officers Of the
state department. 1t is known that
Mexico is not at all inclined to
apologize for the political out
breaks, asserting that the lynchlng

THE SEMINOLE REMNANT.

The seminoles OF Florida BY Minnie
Moore Wilson. Illustrated, Published
by Moffat. Yard and Company. New
York,
This handsome book is made up chief
ly of an account of the Seminoles who
we're left in Florida, who were not
taken to Indian Territory when the
great removal of the most of the tribe
occurred. The Seminolcs, it appears,
were branch of the Creek Indians, but
had so thoroughly separated themselves
and We're in such an Independent posi-
tion, that they seeded from the Creek
federacy and set up for themselves with
full organization of clans, chiefs, etc
The work throughout is a hot arraign.
mcnt OF the perfdy of the whites to-
wards the SeminolcS, OF the bad faith
with which they were treated, of the
violation of flags of truce, of plighted
word Of honor, and of every rule of civil
lized warfare and recognized inter
course. The whites were guilty at cv-
cry point and the Indians were the
noble men who observed what was
right, who kept their word, who never
broke faith, and who staunchly defend
ed their homes, their wives, and their
children. The book says (on page 5o,)
''The records of the Indian Bureau sup.
port the statement that, before the first
half of the Nineteenth century had
passed, we had broken seven solemn
treaties with the Creeks, eleven with the
Cherokees; the Chickasaws and Choc-
taws suffered too, saving nothing of
smaller tribes 1t recitcs how we'll the
Delawares fought for the patriots in the
Revolutionary War and received the
promise of 1.-The territorial right to a
State as large as Pennsylvania and a
right to representation IN our Con-
gress. They were moved time after
tune until only remnant remains of
the patriotic Delawares, a few living
with the Cherokees and n few lat the
Wichita agency. pretty bad record
that, sure enough. But it is record
that we are all familiar with, and that
we are all ashamed of; but still we
know that We would do it all over again
II we had the chance.
The remnant of Seminoles who are
so sympathetjcally taken up in this book
went to the southern part of the Flor
ldan peninsula, where they have lived
IN secret places and hidden homes, and
IN haunts which the white men have
never been able TO find Now, however,
1t appears through the proposition to
drain Lake Okeechobee, the likelihood
is of this holding of the Indians being
again absorbed by the whites and the
remnant made to emigrate TO some re
glon where they will be either merged
IN other tribes or eXterminated. A cor.
siderable number OF pages of vocabulary
gives an idea Of the construction Of
me Seminole language, which is said 10

CAPT. DERBY ON GRAMMAR.

Among the pieces which made up the
Phoenixinna of Capt. Derby-whose TOO
early death deprived America of one of
| her most original humorists-was one
| entitled GA New System Of English
| Grammar. IL seems never to have
attracted much attention; but though
there are in the volume containing it
articles more broadly amusing, there
are mono in which wit and wisdom
are more fully blended. After the
lapse of years the exact words and the
particular illustrations employed escape
me in part but the line of reasoning
will not vary materially from what is
about to be given.
This defect of language, the humorist
or, as l prefer to call him here, the
satirist-proposed TO remedy 10y having
all descriptions and opitbets marked
on a sufficient scale of comparison

character in the object under consider
alton and every possible degree Of hu
man conception in regard to its nature.
The lowest conceivable amount of any
human quality consistent with its being
at all would be indicated by one. Its
maximum would be represented by 100.
Here, then, would be wide range be-
tween the perfection Of the idea eX-
pressed by the one number and its bare
existence merely implied by the other.

TRAINING A LITTLE BOY.

The Sensitive Child; as Revealed in
Some Talks with q Little Boy. BY
Kate Whiting Patch. Published by
Moffat, Yard and Company, New York,
This is an attractlvely written little
book, in which small boy is made the
medium of the setting forth Of some
very important matters. The talks with
the little boy show how good, brave,
and resourceful that little boy s mother
was, and how she cured him of q dread
of the dark, of fear OF the thunder
and storm, and how she explained TO
him certain mysteries of life and death
1t is all very pleasantly written, has
a charm, candor, and earnestness that
are extremely attractive and pleasant
to the reader That little boy was born
under exceptionally good circumstances,
and had an ideal training from an ideal
mother. And the little boy responded
to that training with wealth of af-
fection and a brightness of intellect
that are altogether to his credit and
to the credit of the human race.
