It spoke volumes for the post trader’s activity that he was able to do this, for it is no easy mat ter to keep within kicking range of a properly scared Crow Indian for the distance that he covered, to say noth ing of performing the act itself; there fore the post trader was breathless when he returned and had to lie on the counter with his head on a bolt of pink-striped calico to recover himself. The old bullwhacker, who had been watching the race from his seat on a nailkeg, with a grin on his wrinkled mahogany visage, complimented the advance agent of commerce on his achievement. “I wuz suthen of a foot racer myself when I wuz younger and limberer than what I am now,” he said, “but I duuno that I ever seen the time that I could have done better than that. I’m re gardin’ it purely as a physical feat, however. I’m not say in’ that you showed a strikin’ amount of jedge ment. When Young-Man-Afraid-of* His-Breeehclout has got you knotted up with green rawhide an’ the squaws are fixin' the fire for the grand bar becue niobbe you will regret your per nishus activity an’ cuss the day that you humbled the proud spirit of the noble Injun warrion. Is this shebang insured?” “You was never introduced to me,” rejoined the post trader. “I’ve got a ha’f inch of callous on the soles of my feet an’ I come into this country from the headwaters of Bitter Creek along of J. AY. Hancher an’ Ed Pher netton an’ the rest of them despera does. I’ve got relatives by marriage among the Crows and Ogalallas an’ I’ve drunk more alkali water an’ eat more dog an’ buffalo berry than any white man this side of the Big Miz zoura. I didn’t bring my outfit in here in the spring of ’99. What did you expect me to do? Give that greasy, tin-tagged coyote my stock of cigar ettes to keep him good-tempered?” “If you had you wouldn’t have for feited his friendship,” returned the old bullwhacker. “As it is, I’ve got an idee his heart is bad an’ he won’t come an’ see you no more. An Injun has got his feelin’s the same as a white man has, an’ I reckon you would git hostile if any hombre bo'oted you from blazes to breakfast because you nst him for the means of soothin’ your nerves. You injered that Crow in a sensitive spot, Ike.” “I done my best to,” said the post trader. “He may belong to the Badface band an’ have hair in bis tepee," continued the old bulhvhacker, in the same grave tone of reproof, “but at the same time he’s a human, an’ as a human it’s your play to extend the right band of fel lership to him instid of the sole of your number nine. Hain’t they got no Sun day-school liberries out on Bitter Creek? Ilaiu't you never read about the settler who found a poor, starvin’ redskin out in the snow plum exhaust ed an’ took him inter his shack an’ fed him up a whole lot an’ warmed him an’ then turned hint loose with a grub stake am when the Two Kettle outfit c.phoomed the tomahawk an’ raised merry Cain scalpin’ an’ burnin’ through toe paleface settlements an’ the good-hearted granger was raked in the Injun that he had saved sashays in an’ rescoos him from a turr’ble death?’’ “I’ve read them stories,” said the post trader. “But you don’t believe ’em,” said the old bulhvbacker. “You ain’t sanguine concernin’ the good. that there is in your feller man.” “Well, my tlie’ry is that there ain’t no galoot so low dowm but if you treat him with kindness an’ keep him close herded he will show the good that’s in him. Did I ever tell you about Old Man Haines an’ Gus Minnick? Well, it goes to prove what I wtiz a sayin’. Old Man Haines lived out on Blue Creek apiece above where it empties into tlie Platte, opposite the mouth of Ash Hollow, where Harney cleaned up the Sioux.'He wuz jest about the most benev'lent old duck that ever ripped up tough sod with a balky team of bulls. Long sufferin’ wuzn't no name fer him. He had two boys that was jest like him, an’ his ol’ woman wuz worse than lie wuz. ‘•One fine, cloudy evenin’ Gus Min niek an’ Todd Blakey comes along an’ rustles ten head of Old Man Haines’ ponies, an’ was hiking south with them, when they met up with a crowd of Inquirin’ stranglers who were drift in’ back down Prairie Dog into Kan sas after an unsuccessful pursout of some north-bound boss thieves. The boys liad too many brands iu their bunch, an’ one of the stranglers reck ernized Blakey, so they tied their feet under their horses an’ headed for the nearest timber. They give Blakey the first swingin’, an’ wuz adjustin’ the grass rope to Gus’ neck, when Old Man Haines comes up with his big gest boy, Arch. They had been hot an’ close on the trail all the time. “As soon as they explained who they wuz an’ identified tlieir ponies, the boss strangler allowed that there wuzn’t no reason why the ceremonies Shouldn’t perceed, an’ lie throwed the other end of the rope over the limb. “ ‘Why,’ says the old man, ‘you liain’t goin’ to hang that poor boy, air you?’ “‘I reckon I am,’ says the boss strangler, cheerful an’ gay. “ ‘I don’t believe it helps a man to hang him,’ says Haines. ‘You jest give him up to me an’ I’ll take him back to the ranch with me an’ sur round him with moral influences an’ keep him out of bad company. He’s got good in him an’ I’ll bring it out of him an’ make a useful citerzen of him.’ • “Well, the long an’ short of it was that he begged so hard that they let Minnick go, an’ Old Man Haines start ed back with him. On the way he talked to Gus like a father, an’ told him how wrong it was to rustle cay uses when he could get them himself by workin’ honust fer them. He made Gus a present of the ten that he had stolen as a starter, an’ offered him good wages to work on the ranch. “Gus stayed for two months, an’ then he got inter a argyment with the biggest boy about breakin’ a colt, an’ shot him up an’ lit out. Old Man Haines was real provoked about it, but he jumped on a horse an’ put out after Minnick an’ overtook him at Box Elder. As soon as Gus seen him he throwed down on him with a Winches ter, but the old man told him to be have himself an’ quit monkeyin’ with firearms. “ ‘I sh’d think you’d seen the evil of them sort of actions after killin’ Hen ry,’ he said. “ ‘Did I kill him?” says Gus. “ ‘Yes, you did,’ says the old man. as severe as he knowed how. ‘An’ I sh'd think you’d be ashamed of yourself. I don’t wonder you felt as if you didn’t want to look me in the face after sech actions. All the same, I don’t w#nt you stragglin’ off where you’ll get in ter bad comp’ny, so you jest come right back home with me. We’ve got to have them colts broke, an’ we’re short-handed now.’ “Well, Gus knowed how forgivin' the old man wuz an’ he went back an’ they all avoided the subjec’ of Henry, so’st not to hurt his feelin’s. He stayed on a month longer, an’ then because the old woman burned his cakes for him he brained her with the skillet. The other boy told him that wuzn’t no way to do, an’ Gus got mad an’ mas sacreed him with the butcher knife, an’ then set fire to the house an’ iit out. “AYhen Old Man Haines got back an’ found out what had happened ho said that it wuz enough to make a man lose patience, but he wuz sot in his ways aqd he said that he w T ould make a good citizen of Gus in spite of hill and high water. So he went out after him again, an’ coaxed him back, an’ everybody said that Gus was a changed man from that time forward —as meek as Moses an’ honust as the day.” “Are they living there together yet?” inquired the post trader, with some in terest. The old bullwhacker took a largo chew of tobacco before replying. Then he said: “I wuz hopin’ you wouldn’t ast me that question, becuz it might seem to milertate against my the’ry. The truth is that the old man sent Gus to town one day, an’ Gus come back with a jug of whisky for himself, but he forgot the old man’s smokin’ ter backer. The old man said that it showed selfishness an’ ingratitude on Gus’ part an’ he allowed that he must be poor material, anyway, an’ lie had done the best that he could with him, but that settled it. They wuz standin’ by the woodpile at the time, an’ the old man had the ax. I come along jest in time to assist at the funeral. “Still, I never took the old man’s view, reckon that Gus jest forgot."— Chicago Record. The Yoet’s Dream. Once there was a poet.

Will Dominate the Union and be World’s Richest Spot. THE* NEGRO WILL BE ABSORBED. Slavery Was Wrong—Wisdom In Division in Pollctics—No More “Solid South.” New York, Special.—ln its forth coming issue, Leslie’s Weekly will print a paper by Col. John S. Mosby, the famous Confederate raider, on “The Dawn of the Real South,’’ In which he says: “The real soulfh is just at its birth. The growth of this child of the na tion may be gradual, but in the end the south will be far richer and more powerful than the north. In the days to come the south wtill become the dominant section of the country. “Without the War of Secession the south could never have hoped to at tain the future that is now certain. Slavery was a great incubus, paralyz ing natural energy. By abolishing this wrong our war benefited every State south of the Mason and Dixon line. The negroes are producing more as freemen than they ever did as Slaves, and the great mass of the peo ple are better off today than they were under the old antebellum sys tem. "Socially, as well as industrially, the abolition of slavery was highly beneficial in its results to the masses tor slavery was a great wrong and no community can exist in the highest state of happiness when its systems are based on a wrong. “There are the soundest reasons for asserting that the negro’s status is bound to improve. While they are not as near to equality with white people as they were under the sys tem of slavery, they are certain to be absorbed by immigration and in this enguifment they will disappear. This is the natural and wisest solution of what we now call the ‘race problem.’ “Richmond is the city most likely to become in time the hanking cen tre and commercial headquarters of this country and therefore of the world. The days of that famous old city as a political capital are past, but its career as the central point of man ufacture for the whole* south, and from there for the world at large, is just beginning. ‘"While great forces have been working for the change, industrially and socially the political change is hardly less (marked. It is well nigh folly today to speak of the ‘solid south.’ That, by the way, was a phrase of my own invention. When Kayes became the Republican candi date for president, I urged in a let ter (Aug. 1876) that it was better for some southern imen to support him because, if he were elected, his ad ministration must necessarily rest on whatever supported it. It was better for the southern people to divide be tween the parties, so that, no matter which side won, there would be men f rer.dly to southern people who would control its southern policy. This contention is fully realized to day, and the ‘solid south’ belongs wholly to the political part.” The Manila Scandals.

'Manila, By Cable. —Aguinaldo, who was captured by Gen. Funston and brought to Manila on the United States gunboat Vicksburg, was brought ashore at' 3:10 a. m. Thursday and taken before Gen. MacArtbur at the Malacanang palace. He talked freely, but seemed ignorant concern ing recent events. He appeared to be in good health and was very cheerful. He lunched with the officers of Gen. Mac'Arthur’s staff and was then es corted to the Andai street jail. Aguin ald'o’s capture was attended with con siderable difficulty, an insurgent ma jor being killed at the time of the event. Twenty rifles and a number ot Important papers were captured. Gen. Fred Funston, who, March 23, captured Emilio Aguinaldo, when in terviewed by the representative of the Associated Press, made, the following statement concerning the capture of the Filipino leader: The confidential agent of Aguinaldo arrived February 28 at Pantabangan, in. the province of Nueva E <ja, north ern Luzon, with letters, dated Janu ary 11, 12 and 14. These letters were from Emilio Aguinaldo and directed Baldormero Aguinaldo to take com mand of the provinces of Central Luzon, supplanting Gen. Alejandrino. Emilio Aguinaldo also ordered that four hundred men be sent him as soon as possible, saying that the bearer of the letter would lead these men to where Aguinaldo was. Gen.

Twenty wore uniforms and the others the clothing* of Filipino laborers, lue Macabebe company, armed with 50 Mausers, 18 Remingtons and 10 Krag-Jorgensens, was commanded by Capt. Russell T. Hazzard of the 18th U. S. Volunteer cavalry. With him was his brother, Lieut Oliver P. M. Hazzard, of the same regiment. Oa.pt. Harry W. Newton, 34th infantry, was taken be cause of his familiarity with Casigu ran bay, and Lieut. Burton J. Mitch ell, of the 40th infantry-, went as Gen. Funston’s aide. These were the only Americans accompanying the expedi tion. With the Macabebes were four ex insurgent oficers, one being a Span ish, and the other three Tagalos, whom Gen. Funston trusted im plicitly. Gen. Funston and the American offi cers wore plain blue shirts and khaki trousers. They carried each a half blanket hut wore no insignia of rank. The Macabebes were carefully instructed to obey the orders of the four ex-insurgent officers. On the night of March Bth the narty embarked on the United States gun boat Vicksburg. It was originally in tended to take cascoes from the island of Polillo and to drift to the main land, but a storm arose and three of the cascoes were lost. This plan was abandoned. The camp of the insurgent leader was surprised, and the party of Col. Funston was ordered to fire. The Macabebes opened fire, but their aim was rather ineffective, and only three insurgents were killed. The rebels returned the fire. Ou b wring the firing, Aguinaldo, who evidently thought h’’s men were merely cele brating the arrival of reinfo”cements, ran to the window, and shouted; ‘ Stop that foolishness! —quit waisting ammunition.” Hilario Placido, one cf the Tagalog officers and a forme” insurgent major, who was wounded in the lung by toe fire of the Kansas regiment at the bat tle of Caloocan, threw his arms around Aguinaldo, exclaiming “You are a prisoner of the Americans.” Col. Simeon Villia, Aguiar,ldo’s chief of staff, Major Alambra and others at tacked the men who were holding Aguinaldo. Placido shot Villa in the shoulder, Alambra jumped out of the window and attempted to cross the river. It was supposed that he was drowned.
