tiaI at Fort Logan, near the pres
ent site of Stanford. Boone In
sisted that his purposes were
loyal and true. and that his rea-
son for advising the men at
Blue Licks to surrender, was the
only way to save their lives. He
confessed, that he promised to-
aid the Indians in a foray against
Boonesborough, and to use his
influence to have the garrison to
surrender, but, that he made
the promises only to deceive
them, and to make favor for
himself and other prisoners. and
had no intention of complying
with his promises. He claimed.
that his purpose in advising the
party to go with him to attack
the enemy while on their road
to Boonesboroug. and which
movement barely escaped being
a disaster, was, in his best judg-
ment, to get an advantage over
the enemy. The reason, he
gave, for advising Galloway and
the others to go out from the
fort to a considerable distance
unarmed to treat with the In
dams, was because the enemy
was so strong, that he thought,
to make terms with them, was
more preferable than to try to
make, what he believed to be a
hopeless resistance. which would
infuriate the Indians, and cause
the death of all. The court mar.
:ial accepted Boone's reasons fol-
| his conduct, and acquitted him,
but, the result of the trial was
very unsatisfactory to Galloway
and Logan, who were the strong
and leading citizens in that part
of the state, at that time. Col
TIabue was then a very young
man, only seventeen or eighteen
years of age; but, was present
and heard the trial of Boone,

that Boone was always loyal anc

THE Actors Strike and
Ethel BARRYMORE.

There is something OF fine pro
fessional tradition in the famous
Drew family-which includes the
BarrymOres. Thus It is not surpris-
ing TO find Ethel Barrymore and
John Drew, who are themselves am
ply protected from injustice by their
high standing. making common cause
with the masses Of their profession
IN their strike against conditions that
have tended toward the degradation
OF the artists. It is not remarkable
that George Conan should be so
hostile TO the strike. He is not an
artist Not a great actor. Not an
ornament OF the profession But he
represents on the stage and I'm the
managerial office the same rather
low mercenary spirit of the com
bined managers. He Is more man
ager and producer than actor. His
appeal has always been one of froth
10 the thoughtless. When the George
Cohans began TO forge ahead Of the
John Drews and the Richard Mans
nelds there was something rotten on
the surface. And the strikers are
demanding something more than
monetary advantages. They are pro
testing against the low merceuary
spirit on the part OF the gross and
vulgar producers who have been de
hberately degrading the art FOR n
decade and more. Ethel Barrymore
expresses II when she saws that in
the old days actors and actresses
were the ladies and gentlemen of
the stage" while at present they are
here yOu's." And so these strikers
are striking for a principle in which
people OF intellect and refinement
are deeply interested. Their strike
works no general hardship They
are demanding that the stage shall
DO something more than a leg I'm silk
hose. Asking that the old stand

man and DAILY be restored. They
are striking for g1ays that are not

set forth the true character Of the
natives of Hawaii. The Hawaiians

flowers that nestle close to their
breast, then too they revel in the

This devotion TO nature can almost
be said TO be their religion. The
