THE INDIAN QUESTION.
Hamlin Garland, Indian author-
topics, has created a sensation in
"We say to the Indian: 'Be
like us or we will kill you.' For
my part I do not want to live in a
world where the people all drink
ice cream soda and wear the
same kind of clothes."
made a rash bid for fameet audi

v/r
the Coroett-McCoy tight at Mad-
ity and prolific writer on western cure for his empire an exit into ice
free waters as Jefferson, Madison or
Monroe had to force their Way through
Chicago by his defens e, in a lec-j the French and Spanish barriers that
ture, of the Indian and is ways.
Mr. Garland said white men
do not now understand and never
had understood the Indian and
he shocked his audience by de
claring that Anglo-Saxon civil
ization was not the only civiliz
ation,arid that Christianity as
not the bnly religion. Continuing
he said:
"The history of the 'civilizing
march' of the white man from
the Atlantic to the Pacific has
never been written from the red
man's point of view. When it
is written, most of the 'mas
sacres' will appear as fair,
pitched battles, and the 'out
rages' will be found never to
have happened at all. Reports
of nine-tenths of all the Indian
outrages in the southwest were
absolutely without foundation.
What Mr. Garland says of the.
"civilizing march" is true enoug h,
for has not the vhite man been
many times injust in his con
demnation of Indian tactics in
their wars of defense against the
en roachrnent of the whites? If
the white men won a battle, no
matter under what conditions, it
was called a victory, but if the
Indians were victors and many
were killed it was invariably put
down as a massacre. Take the
Custer "massacre" for example.
A massacre is always a stain
upon the nation by whom it is
practiced, as it cannot be affected
without a violent breach of
confidence, and a direct act of
treachery. How, then, an the
Indians be said the have mas
sacred Custer and his brave fol-
lower s? Was there a brea ch of *t]}e
promise or an act of treachery
BEAR HOLDS MANCHURIA.
Russia's Latest Move Settles th
Question.
St. Petersburg, Aug. 16.In offlr
circles here much satisfaction is ex
pressed at the separation of Russia
fv Eastern domains from the immo^i
administrative control of St.
Petersburg by the appointment of Vice
Admiral Alexieff as viceroy of the
Amur district and the Kwang Tung
province. The appointment is one I
the results of the recent conference
i of Russian naval and military anthori
i ties at Port Arthur. The change will
i facilitate the government's purpose to
secure for Russia a permanent outlet
in the Gulf of Pechili. No alternation
will be made in 'he technical status
of Manchuria by the appointment of
I a viceroy, but the presence of such an
official will be an intimation that Rus
sia does not intend to permit the
province to pass back into Chinese
possession. Russian officials maintsm
that the czar has as much right to ''e-

Gulf of Mexico.
MISS JEFFRIES A SLUGGER.
Chicago Girl Knocks Out an Offensive
Young Man.
Boston, Aug. 16.Miss Maud Jeff
ries of Chicago yesterday afternoon
proved herself a boxer of no mean
ability in the public gardens, when she
knocked out an offensive young man
who attempted to hug her. To an of
ficer who came up after the affair was
all over Miss Jeffries said that the
young fellow had made himself par
ticularly offensive tc- herself and two
feminine companions as they sat upon
one of the benches. When he at
tempted to hug her, her ire arose and
she delivered a blow on his jaw that
knocked him down. Then the three be
labored him with their parasols. "As
soon as he could regain his feet he fled
from the angry damsels, amid the
jeers of a crowd that had quickly col
lected. Beyond giving her name and
place of residence, Miss Jeffries de
clined to give any information, saying
that the affair had been settled and
that she wanted no more notoriety.

PROFITABLE BUSINESS.

The receipts were 54,000, of
which the fighters received 70-
percent. Jeffries share of the
purse was 75 per cent of the 70
per cent, which would make his
