LOUIS RIEL

But Lieut. Col. Garnet Wolseley ia
ter famous as Lord Wolseley) march
ed against him with 1000 regulars.
Riel had no army competent to with
stand such force. So he fed from
Fort Garry and escaped into the
United States. The Canadian gov
ernment offered a $4,000 reward for
his arrest. But when, little later, he
came back to Manitoba, no one laid
hands on him. In fact three years
afterward he was elected by his local
admirers a member of the Canadian
parliament This was too much for
even so patient government as that
OF the Dominion. Riel was not allow
ed to take his seat in parliament But,
next year, in 1874, he was reelected.
He went to the parliament house at
Ottawa, signed his name to the rolls
and was sworn In as member. But
when the news of this step reached
the English townsfolk Of Ottawa there
was a storm of indignation and threats
that forced the half-breed "ex-presi-
dent" to fee from the city. After
which he was formally expelled from
parliament. Again, in the fall OF the
same year, his faithful followers elect
ed him, but this time the government
declared him an outlaw. Then his
brain apparently broke down and for
some months he was confined in a
Quebec lunatic asylum.
A Mad Prophecy.
Thence Riel moved to Montana, but
a deputation of Indians and half
breeds followed and begged him to
come to Manitoba again and fight for
their rights. So back he came He
found a dispute raging between the
natives and the English A second
time he put himself at the head OF a
provincial government" In the north
west. captured the Duck Lake Indian
agent and others and seized Canadian
official stores. Next he thrashed a
force Of mounted police and volun-
teers sent to crush him, and 1t was
not until larger body of troops was
hurled against him that he was de-
feated and captured Riel was tried
for treason. His counsel made an in
sanity plea. Riei declared himself
perfectly sane and shouted:
III you put me to death shall risa
again!"
He was hanged November l6, 1885.
There was firece indignation at whas
was deemed the needlessly. severe ac-
tion Of the government In putting .

Protecting Roses In Winter.

After mild summer and fall, a
severe winter is very hard on both
utility and ornamental vegetation. as
the growth is very green and unripe.
Amongst the first TO suffer would be
varieties OF roses, and their protec-
ton should bs attended to before
the slightest frost occurs.
Take wood rammer and ram the
soil as hard as a road all around each
plant; then place forkful or two OF
stable or COW manure round the stem.
Let this come up little way under
the branches. but not far. as It is the
neck or collar that wants wrapping,
and II this is protected. there is little
danger Of the plants being injured.

"HERE Is a great time In store for
the fans of Brooklyn next Thurs

Will be the opening attraction at WASH

Mayor Gaynor has accepted the honor
OF throwing out the first ball n there
will be q band on hand that will make q
noise whenever the Dodger fans need
to give their lungs a rest.
Nap R,Scker will undoubtedly be
chosen to do the pitching for the boys

best man on the stan of Manager Bill
Dahlen, but ne Is one of the best left-
harders that ever walked 10 the mound.
That Rucker Is in tip top shape goes
without st!lnS. liza performance In the
box yesterday shows what he IN capahle
Of at this stage Of the game. He
worked his irsL fun nine innings
against the Portsmouth. O., team and
In that time only allowed three hits and
no runs. He Incidentally famed nine
and exhibited great control, not giving
a base on balls.
With Rucker on the firing line the
Giants will have all they can do 10 win.

chosen by Manager McGraw to oppose
