CAPTAIN SAM BRADY AND HIS
FAMOUS LEAP
Western Newspaper Union.

Capt. Sam Brady was member OF
a fighting family which made history
on the PENNSYLVANIA border during the
Indian wars after the Revolution.
CAPTAIN Brady's greatest exploit took
place in Ohio. He had been captured
by the Indians apQ carried to the San
dusky Towns, headquarters for all the
Ohio tribes, where the saVages pre-
pared to burn him at the stake.
He was stripped, bound to a post
and slow fires kindled around him, for
the Indians hated him SO much that
they wished to torture him as long as
possible. Brady was powerful man
and he strained at his letters until
they were loosened slightly. Then
with a final effort he snapped the last
bond, leaped across the barrier OF
fame and, seizing a sqnaw pitched
her into the fire.
Before the Indians could recover
from their surprise the scout escaped
from the village and plunged into the
woods, hotly pursued BY hundreds of
savages. Finnlly he came to the
Cuyahoga river, near the present site
of Kent in Portage county.
At this place the river flowed be-
tween steep, rocky banks, - feet
across from side to side. The scout
was trapped. There WAS no other place
for miles up and down the river where
he could ford it. The Indians We're
closing in on him and his only chance
of escape was to try to leap across the
chaSm.
Brady could hear the savagPs yell
ing in the woods only a short distance
away as he ran back toward them TO
oct a good start. Then turning. he
sued for the brink and putting all his
failing strength into a tinal squirt, he
sprang for the opposite cliff. His
lump was q little short and he struck
the bank few feet below the edge.
The Indians stopped in amazement,
then as the scout scrambled up over
the edge they opened fire.
They wounded him in the leg, delay
ING his flight, and in a short time were
on his heels again. He cane 10 lake
ana plunged in. STOPPING beneath the
broad pads of a water lily, he hreathed
through n hollow reed while the say
ages hunted in vain on the shores Of
the lake. They found his bloody trail
TO the waters edge and. believing that
he had drowned rather than be cap
tured again, gave up the chase,
Soon afterward Brady reached Fort
Pitt in safety He had many more
thrilling adventures before his death
on Christmas day 1875, but his 20 foot
leap across the Cuyahoga was the
greatest feat Of all.

Sunday evening another murder wa.

Sunday evening another murder was
perpetrated in Minneapolis. How long
are the residents of that city and the
people of this state going to tolerate
this situation? People who are living
in what is supposed to be civilized
community are taking the most dam
gcrous risks if they step out on the
streets of Minneapolis with more than
few dollars in their pockets. In fact
they arc almost as liable to be shot
in their place of business as on the
streets. This situation is not confined
to Minneapolis alone but conditions
seem to be worse there than in other
portions of the state. Right over here
in Center City farmer was murdered
when he went to his barn to feed his
stock. Are not the people in this state
paying sufficiently heavy taxes to Sc
cure a reasonable amount of protcc-
ton for their lives and property? We
may talk about capital punishment,
but laws providing that a man who
takes the life of another shall pay the
extreme penalty, would be of little
avail if the murderer is not -appre-
hended.

IF we take zap from Japan" says
"A Diplomat in the Paris Mardi,
"there is nothing to do but to give it
to Germany, who is the legitimate
proprietor according to international
conventions before the war" This
diplomat" should study the record of
what happened between August 4,
1914, and November II, 1918. In that
time the United States participated in
a war which separated zap from Ger
many. The separation was defnitive.
Who owned zap after the separation
had taken place? The conquering
powers-all of them-and they own it
still. The United States does not
claim it for herself nor deny the equal
ownership of Japan. Not having con-
sented to the mandate, the right Of
the United States in the Caroline
islands is just where it was when the
armistice was called. That has been
made clear by the correspondence on
the matter addressed by Secretary Of
State Hughes to the allied and asso.
ciated powers. It would be as vain
for the powers to attempt to turn the
island back to Germany without the
consent of the United States as tc
attempt to turn it over to the Jap.

Caught redhanded distributing cir
culars calling for May day revolu-
ton to overthrow the United States
government, Alex Wasilesky, Rus
sian, was arrested by federal agents
in st. Paul last week. He was, how
ever, released when the federal dis
trict attorney could find no law under
which to hold him. Wasilesky is at
liberty on bond of $1,000 awaiting
deportation as a dangerous alien, he
having been convicted several months
ago. 1t seems strange that there is
no law on the statute books covering
the offense for which this revolution
airy was unprecedented in St. Paul. Such
law should be Immediately enacted.
