A Biff Chief.
The Inter Mountain with pleasure ac
lïrowledges a call froui Major Monteath,
formerly business manager of this office,
but now the big chief oC the Blackfeet
tribe. From his tepe3 on the reserva
tion, where he represents the dignity of
Uncle Sara, he occasinnall} wanders off
to the haunts of civilization. But he
leaves behind the tomahawk and the
scalping knife, and even the red blanket,
and comes among us in civilized garb.
Wherever he goes, however, he will be
welcomed among the palefaces, for his
heart is good and he knows not the taste
of fire-water, and all tbe people be visits
remember he was ever tne friend of the
white man. Yet he pines for the moun
tains and rivers of the reservation, where
the scenery is grand beyond description
and where the grizzlies and the deer and
the B. P. O. E. roam at >ill among the
flowers and grass.—Inter Mountain.
"Reds" are Defiant.
Springfield, III., Sept. 22.—Twenty
anarchists armed with double barreled
shot guns and 1,009 rounds of ammuni
tion are standing guard over the offices
of L'Aurore, a notorious anarchist pub
lication which expressed joy at the mur
i
lication which expressed joy au tne mur
der of President McKinley and satisfac- j
lion over the announcement of assassin
Czolgosz that he was an [anarchist. I
Meanwhile fully 2,000 citizens of adjoin- |
ins towns have sent word that they are
ready and extremely anxious to start at
a moment's notice for this city to assist
in exterminating the "reds." The tem
per of the people here is at a boiling
point.and the defiant attiude of the
anarchist colony is serving to increase
the general anger; John Cabilli, the
editor of L'Aurore, has been in hiding
©ver since a recent mass meeting gave
oveidence of a desire to demolish hi3
publication a»id adorn him with a coat
of tar and feathers. Tomorrow 'a com
mittee will wait upon General Manager
Dalzell of the Spring Valley Coal com
pany and insist that he discharge every
known anarchist in his employ. The
anarchists and their sympathizer nuft

Boers Still Active.
London, Sept. 22.—The most alarming
report from Cape Town is published to
day by t e Daily .Express. The writer
says:
The Bots are over running Cape Col
ony. They. are at both coast lines and
are within 40 miles of Cape Town. Even
the intelligence department does not
know how many colonial rebels have
taken up arms in the last fortnight.
The town guard of Cape Town has been
ordered to hind i-j all magazine rifles
and ammunition, ostensibly because
these are wanted at the front. The
Mariini Henrys have been served out in
stead."
In conclusion the writer declares that
the Dutch element in the colon}
1
revolt and it is use less to disguise
fact. The apparent strength of the
Boers now in the field is now estimated
at 11,00,). If these ligures be correct the
Boers must constantly be gaining re
cruits. Their su plies of arms and am -
munition seem to be inexhaustible.
In Boer circles in Holland it is ascer
tained that everything is prepared for a
Dutch rising in both Cape Colony and
Natal.

He takes all sorts of physical exercise
—rides horeback, uses dumbbells, spars

Pretnature senility. That specifies in
Sampson Broken Down.
It is accepted as settled that Admiral
Sampson will not be a witness before the
Court. It isstated x that Captain Stay
ton, the nephew by marriage of Admiral
Howison, who has been retained to look
after the interests of Admiral Sampson
and others who are opposed to Admiral
Schley, has satisfied himself that Sam
son is in no cond'tion mentally to go on
the witness stand, and that if he should
a nutshell Admiral Sampson's condition.
His body shows signs of energy and his
appetite is good, but his legs totter and
his mind is feeble. At times he creeps
abotrt the corridors of the hotel on L ike
Sun a pee, NT. H. like a ghost at the mid
night hour. He follows his wife about
like a child. When he smiles, his ex
pression is devoid of any intelligence.
It conveys no expression. It betrays no
understanding.
Mrs. Sampson, wife of the Admiral, is
quoted as making the following state
ment to Mrs. E. N. McCalla, one of her
closest friends:
"He (the Admiral) is steadily growing
worse. I hope for the best, but I feel
the end is near. He broods oi/er the
affair at Washington. It haunts him
night and day. It has prompted many
distressing delusions in his mind. He
does not comprehend everything. He
hasn't a clear understanding of events
for nearly a month. He is steadily grow
ing weaker. I know it; I see it; I.feel it.
My conscience tells me I have doUe
everything for him. t do not know what
. . r .1
to do next. I am almost discouraged."
Later: Admiral Sampson has been
relived from further command at the
Charlestowii navy yard on account of ill
health, and is now in Washington.
John Got There.
A bridge on a Western railway had
been washed away, and it was necessary
to replace it with a temporary structure.
The chief engineer-and his staff were
ordered in hot haste to the place, a
draughting room was established in an
adjoining station, aud the scene became
one of great activity. Two days later
came the general manager to add more
pressure to the already tense situation
Alighting from his private car, he en
countered the master bridge builder.
The latter was a type evolved by the
railroad situation of the last generation
—heavy handed, hard of head, with
some knowledge of books, and a vast ex
perience.
'•Jobn," said the manager, and the
words quivered with energy, "I want
this job rushed. Every hour's delay
costs the Company money. Have you
I got the engineer's plans for the new
j bridge?"
■ "Colonel," said the old man (the gen
eral manager of a Western raiiway never
j ranks lower than colonel)-"Colonel, I
j don't know whether the engineer has
j got the picture drawed yet or not, but
: the bridge is up ana the trains are pas
s i G g over it."

THE ROUNDER.
The Rounder confesses that he is in
eligible as an anarchist. For many years
he has struggled along doing the best he
could to live out his existence regardless
of fame or notoriety. He let existing
governments alone because he knew of
no practical improvement on the present
systems. He avoided discussions on I
political economy because he knew j
nothing about the subject and the j
chances are that he would have lived
and died a respecable citizen, unknown
to the world at large had not the yellow
journals, put him in the notion of be
coming an anarchist. He has however
made inquries into the qualification
necessary for the profession and is forced
to admit that his early training lacked,
many of the most important essentials
One ought to be foreign born, of poor,
but vicious,, parentage. In his child
hood he should lie taught to lie and
steal, and to imbue his nature thorough
ly with these propensities it must be
reiterated in his ears that laws are wrong
and the property of the rich belongs by
right to the poor. Cleanliness being an
attribute of respectability soap and
water must be religiously eschewed.
The less education a child is given, the
better anarchist he will make, however
he may be allowed to learn to read and
write at some school supported by public
spirited citizens, that he may be more
tluent in maligning the people by whose
grace he lives, andjmore adept in spread
ing the noxious doctrine over the land.
As he grows up and the seed ?own begins
to bear fruit, the young anarchist carries
his- depredations further until his exis
tenc» becomes a menaça to public safety
and then the arm of the law interferes
and hampers his actions. Meantime he
! has heard oc Arnarici, the land oc the
tak
i
'
[
{ree an( j t ke home of the bravo, and tak
j n g advantage of the excellent immigra
j.j ou j aW3 aQ( } the cheap fares to this
country he stows himself into the hold of
a ship like an infected rat and in a few
days steps onto the pier at Castle Garden
with his dirty scowling face and slovenly
foreign cut clothes.
But this is America, where curs may
growl without having the knout applied
to their backs and may criticize the gov
ernment without being sentenced to
Siberia Here, where freedom of s;>eech
and action is greater than in any other
country on earth, where the overthrow of
j a government may be attained by
a free and unrestricted vote, the narrow
minded ignoramus proceeds to abuse his
privileges and promulgate alleged cons
titutional remedies for a government that
was free before his ilk ever saw the lisrht
of day. In his fanaticism he would tear
down ramparts that protect him from
countless foes the onslaught of whom
would crush his miserable life. Let
such a man be rich and lot the law with
draw her protecting arm and his goods
nor his life would be worth au hour's
purchase.
However, an anarchist has great oppor
tunities. He can be lazy, dirty and mean,
he can swill beer, beat bis wife and kick
his children out of doors and people will
attribute it to his peculiar ideas. When
he does wrong and gets into the peniten
tiary he may be called a martyr to the
cause. But above all to gain notoriety,
he may kill a great, wise man, one day
of whose life is worth years of thousands
of lives such as his.
