St. Paul, Minn., Feb. 16.—Indian | Agent Cransie of the Devils Lake| reservation in North Dakota who was here to-day, said the destitution among the Indians of that agency otherwise. The winter was a much more severe one than had been pub- lished, so far as the suffering of the reservation was concerned, and in his opinion if the $3,000 recently authorized for their relief by Presi- dent Harrison had been delayed longer there would have been few Indians to have received any bene- fits.

The Awfal Outrage At Kara Worse than First Reported. New York, Feb. 14.—A Faris dis- patch says: Further particulars of | the Siberian horror have been receiv- | ed and it is known that the cruelties were worse than at first :eported. | “Itnowappears that Mme. Shidihi | | had a younger sister, some 16 years | old, who went to Siberia to look af- ter her comfort. Arrivingthere she | had the misfortune to please the eye of the director of th prison. She was detained by hin upona trumped up charge of ccuniving at the attempted escape of Mme. Sihi- di and became a victim of his bru- tality. She was subjected to such atrocious treatment as {o cause her death soon after. | Mme. Sihidi, indignaat and ter- ror-stricken by this event, vehement- | ly denouncen the outrage. In doing | this she attracted the attention of the director, who ther approach- | ed her with the same insults he, had heaped upon her | | | sister. | The monstrous revenge of the di- rector in having her pulliciy flogged followed and this punshment was | accompanied by inhuman incidents | which probably has mare to do with | driving her to suicide than the ex- | posure to which she lad been sub- jected. | The revolt in the male prison 1s confirmed, and it is 2ow definitely known that the number of killed, amounted to 41. News of the affair | has now been circulated in Russia and it has inspired the Anarchists | with new vigor. | Upon learning the particulars and | realizing the universal protest and violent feeling the ase would arouse | the Czar dispatched an officer to replace the director and ordered that official to report a: St. Petersburg.

E. WALTON J. R. JENKINS A Lesson to Cities. The liability of cities for personal damages through neglect on the | part of the municipal authorities, is again called to mind by a decision rendered in the supreme court last Monday by Judge Black. Walker fell from a bridge ac ravine in Kansas City and r severe injuries. He sued t and received a verdict for $ damages, and the supreme court has ground that the bridge was not properly guarded. There is probably not a town in the state which is not liable for damages through such neglect. A ' cellar door opening on a public pave ment is a coustant menace to life and limb, and a person injured from such a source will be awarded dam- ages just as certainly as suit is in stituted. There are many other sources of injury, such as defective pavements, obstructions, ete. Some of the smaller cities have received severe lessons. Springfield, Mexico Moberly and Kirksville have all been | foreed to pay heavy damages on ac count of negligence of officials. It is a custom in all cities to pay | no attention to warnings from court until in turn each city finds itself the defendant ina heavy suit for damages. Why would it not be bet- ter for the cities to use the power delegated to them by the legislature and remedy such defects as are a constant menace to the public? Damage suits are as certain to fol- low neglect of official duty in the matter under consideration as time continues. There is no use for city officials to close their eyes and re- |fuse to see duty which is so plain. If they persist, the courts will open their eyes, and then the tax payers will howl.—Jefferson City Tribune. Thousands of Dollars are spent every year by the people of this state for worthless medicines | for the cure of throat and lung dis- eases, when we know that if they would only invest $1 in SANTA ABIE, the new California discovery for consumption and kindred com- plaints, they would in this pleasant remedy find relief.

C., Feb. 17.—On Saturday John Hood, the aged fath- er of Sheriff Hood of Chester coun- ty, was shot from ambush and instantly killed. There was strong circumstantial evidence against a negro named Green Brown, and he was arrested. A mob bent upon lynching the negro soon collected, but Sheriff Hood succeeded in getting the man out of the way of the mob and then telegraphed the governor asking that the man be taken to Columbia for safe keeping. The governor so ordered and authorized the calling out of the Chester militia if neces- i sary to protect the prisoner. Brown was safely lodged in jail last even- ing. number of deaths had resulted from starvation. The Carlisle (Pa.) Indian school! contributed $550 for the relief of these Indiana and the money was ex- pended in the purchase of supplies ported to the reservation by the great Northern railway free of | charge. | McElree’s WINE OF CARDUI for femele diseases FIENDISH WORK. Tramps Burn a Culvert on the Santa Feand a Trainis Wrecked. Wichita, Kan., Feb. 17.—A fright- ful railroad accident occurred to the southbound passenger on the Santa Fe at 8:05 o'clock this morning, at here. One man was killed and sev- eral perhaps fatally injured. The bridge over a ten foot culvert was burned last night by tramps and the engine broke through, three bag- gage cars piling on top of it. Road- master Peters of Newton, was on the engme and with engineer Nand and fireman Smith jumped. Peters jumped the wrong way and was in- stantly killed, his head and both legs being severed from his body. En- gineer Nand was caught under the machiue and his right leg broken. Smith jumped free, but also suffers froma broken leg. The express messenger was severely and perhaps fatally injured internally. Three passenger coaches well filled were attached, but none of them left the track. About a dozen people were quite severely injured, but none fa- tally. A Mrs. Cain of Udall, was thrown forward and had several ribs broken. A boy, name unknown, had aleg broken. Peters hasa wife and eleven children, and had been on the road twenty years. A posse of sheriffs and detectives are scouring the country looking for the tramps. No arrests have been made as yet. BQs- BLACK-DRAUGHT tea cures Constipation. A Tragedy Recalled. Sheriff James H. Callaway, of Clinton, Henry county, passed through here to-day en route to Butler, having in charge S. S. Price, arrested as accessory to the killing of the late Marshal Morgan. Price has lately been incarcerated in jail at Clinton. Mr. Price goes to But- ler to stand his preliminary trial. He thinks the feeling against him has subsided, and that he will be ac- quitted. He earnestly maintains his innocence. Accounting for his pres- ence there on that fatal night, he said: “Iwas simply deputized by Mr. Willis. Willis went to the door andI stood in the yard about 15 feet from the house and when Willis went to the door Morgan shot first and Willis followed almost instantaneous, in a second. I had no pistol with me. I was in ignor- ance of the fact of what was wanted with me. Willis deputized me on the train from Kansas City to But- ler. I was going to Butler to see Judge Lefker. I represent the 1n- vestment department of the Nation- al Lifg and Maturity Association.” The tragedy enacted at Butler in December last, ending in the death of City Marshal Morgan and JU. S. Deputy Marshal Willis will be re- called by readers of this paper. It was in truth a most unfortunate af- fair—Nevada Democrat.
