But Shakespearo is too great # theme, and 1 seem | tic to feel that 1 cannot erasp it with sufiicient strength to speuk of the great dramatist. [t is hard to estimate what we owe to genius. Take from the world what the men and women of genius have wrought and all the niches would bo empty, all the picture gal lories bare, all art would lose its proportion, and nll would be left to hapless chance. :0 this monurch of the hu- was born, He was not of super No stars wandered from birth.

Many other geniuses have been con emned by cireumstances of the times to serve in lowly positions as Shakespeare was. We know little about ti great dramatist’s hife, and it is better so; otherwise he would have beon belittled by friendly foois. He was born. Ho went to London atan early ago and made mo which is always roputablo. Mo returned to Stratford, was visited by noblemen, and con- sequently thought o great deal of by the country folks. "But aftor his death the latter discovered that ho was & pluy writer and utable sl and said that ne had written it.

Yes, the weather was bitter cold, but thoy had plenty of provisions and were full of fight. Tie surroundings were bad for them. The Sioux powerful in physique, and will fight anythin Wo have scen, since the trouble has biown over and it will never come up again, that none of the settlers were disturbed. The Indians did not intend to hurt settlers, They wero after the solaiers, whom they detest. The battle of the Little Blg Hora in the Black Hills of my state, nearly twenty years ugo, in which General Custer was slaughtered, has been pointed out to tho young bucks as oncof the greatost epochs in tho life of tho Indian nation. The young men were told by the old ones that their fathers had distin- guished themselves on the battlefield where Custer was killed, and that they—tho young Indians—would never amount to anything till they also killed some soldicrs. Tho battlo of the Little Big Horn was a simple slaughter of soldiers, and the Sioux in the last cam- paign thought 1t was proper to kill soldiers, as they wero hired by the government to bo killad, and they could not bo punished for it. “After ali there is u great deal of decp cunming in tho Indian, Ho knows perfect] well that if he can make an_outbreak appes tw be a war he is not likely to bo arr and hung for his murders, and that to_make war you must involve the soldiers. Simply to kill settlers is not to mako war. This has been well demonstrated in the trial of Plenty Horses at Stoux Falls, my home eity. Plouty Horses was educated at the Carlisle, Pa., Indian school and almost as soon as he re turned to his people he tarew off bis civil- ized citizeus’ clotuing and donned a_blaukot. When the last outbreak began ho took it into his head to become great among his peoplo. He wanted to kil his man, and he must be a soldier. So into the camp ono day, he went and got into a_conversation with Lieutenant C no idea the Indian y. Tho ofticer bad had murder in bis heart. When the conver sation ended Licutenant Casey _turned and started to walk away. Pienty Hor. took from under his blanket a rovolver he had concealed and shot the ofticer through tho back of the head, at a distunce of less than twenty foet. Theve was no fighting, no excitoment” at the tine. Was that warl It murder. But Plenty Horses' defense was that the killing was in war, and the de fenso stood, and of course was néquitted. “No," said the seuator, in conclusion, “there will be no more Indian wars if we do our duty. We will make it :mpossible for the Indians to have arms. Without arms they caunot kill.” SENATOR COLQUITT TALKS.

RICHARDSON, JOHN MULHOLLAND. They wero omployed ut the breast of the tunnel in loading holes, I'he tunnelis very long and is worked by power arilis, so they carricd with them about. seventy-five pounds of dynamite or giant powder to con.plete the loading. Back from the breast of the tunnel is a drift on one of the loads, in which Moritz Farriton was working. It was customary for one of the boys of the shaft to come back and warn the workmen of the coming blast, but a sudden and unusual explosion threw Him off his fect, stunning him badly. After ho had overed he started to the mouth of the tu nel, wondering why the shift had not notitied him as usual. - On going to the engine room ho told the enginecr that the boys here sat off the blast without tolling him and he was and wanted to know why they had been areless, asking whero they were, Tho engineer said they had not ¢ out. A searching party was orgunized and found t all of the fourmen named had been lit 1y blown to fragments by a premature ex plosion of nearly 100 pounds of dynamit How the blast was fired and what “peculiar circumstances caused tho awful fatality will never be known, The accident” occurred about 3,70) feet from the mouth of the turnel. The force of the explosion tore a great hole in the wall of the tuanel and great quantities of blocked the way of the reseung party for a time.
