He is second in authority in the tribe, and has been admitted to hopes to get this honor conferred by taking these chiefs east to perform on the shore of the Atlantic, probably at Plymouth Rock, a certain religious ceremony which they can ouly per- form at the ocean.

Curcaco, February 27.— Sheriffs Farrel and Chandler, of Iowa, passed through this city yesterday with two prisoners captured in Randolph, Wis., on Saturday, Wells and Norris. The prisoners were strongly guarded. The parties were enroute to Fremont coun- ty, Towa. Wells lay on a cot with the bed clothing half drawn over him. Across his forehead and breast were recogniged the sheriff. When the lat- ter said he wanted to speak with him, Waells at once began to draw a_revol- ver, turning sideways. Farrel knew that one or the other must die and he whipped out his pistol and fired be- fore [Wells had quite raised his.
