Natural Ilislory The Baby.
Detroit Free Pre.
"What animal is that ?"
"This la a babv. lie is now about
three years old, and at llit wickedest
point oi 111a earth Iv career,
" hat eountriet doea the baby
moil lntiauu r
"lit can be found in every inhabit'
ed country on the globe, the Rhine as
mosquitoes and boils."
"Can they te tamed ?"
"Yus. quite easily. After aliulc
judicious discipline they ceaae te
struggle and become subservient to
the will of man.'
"Doea the baby eat grass f"
,'ies, er anything else.- They
swallow pocket knives, tbirables, but
tons, spools or any other object a lit
tle smaller than a teacup? If offered
milk they seldom lefuse it."
"Do they graza during the day, or
only at night If"
"They are always grazing, paying
not the least heed to the hour. W hen
not actually eating they generally
give utterance to a peculiar err.
Strong raou often jump out of bed at
midnight in the coldest weather when
hearing this cry."
"What meaning is attached to this
cry?"
t'Men of deepest thought have
agreed that it signifies to wake up the
neighborhood and have some lun."
"Of what ben fit to mankind U a
domesticated baby f"
"They are no earthly account lor
the first fuw years, but by and by
they can slide down hill on a cellar
door and cairy articles out of the
house and trade them lor a wooden
sword, or loxe them in the grass."
"Do you know ol any instances
where the baby has attacked the
household and killed or injured any
one ?"
"Such instances hi ve been related
by such eminont naturalists as Geor
ge Francis Traiu and Texas Jack, but
we don't put much laith in them.
However, if too baby was maliciously
aad persistently provoked - there's no
knowing what it might de."
"Are they a healthy animal ?"
"No. On the contrary, no drug
gist could make enough pront 111 a
year to buy him a pair of Arclls over?
shoes but lor the presence ol the ba
by in every household. 1 here is
hardly an hour in the day that the
baby does not demand peppermint,
paregoric, milk, sugar, eordial, cod
iver emulsien, ipecac or something
else costing money."
"What machinery is made use ot to
eompel the baby to take a dose ol
castor oil ?"
"There several patent machines for
tho purpose, but most people follew
the old rule of knocking him seuseiess
and getting the dose into his meulh
before he recovers."
"Is the bald headed baby more
domestic than others?"
"Not a bit. He kicks around alter
the same fashion, and has even a
worse time fighting flies and mos
quito s."
"What musio do ttiey seem to pre
fer?" "A base drum is their Grst choice,
but they have a heavy leaning toward
the sound of the stove handle knock
ing the nose off the pitcher with the
emptyings in it." This is all about
the baby. Take another look at him,
for next woek we shall write of some
other reptile.

Faro-Tnble Duel.
IDenver Tribuue.
According to the accounts just re
ceived from Silver City, Green was
dealing faro at a table in one of the
new gambling shops which have
sprung with the tewn into life, and
young Leslie AlcCoy.the son of Judge
McCoy, was playing. The limit of
the game, according to this rsport,
was $2 50, but McCoy persisted in
pressing the limit and iu betting
more than the rules permitted. A
running quarrel wss kept np for some
lime... At last McCoy made a bet ol
$3 75, and then when he lost,-undertook
to reclaim $1 25, claiming that
he should retain all over the limit.
Hero tin quarrel became ferocious.
Green demanded tho money, but Mo-
toy saiu mat he could not hare it
that no man could take it. Consider
able swearing was inuulged in on
both sides. Frank l'otterfield, who
i also a gambler, occu ied the look
out chair, and at this juncture drew
revolver. I Ins was a move irausht
with doubly fatal consequences, l'ot
terfield had uo sooner brought his
weapon to light t'lan McCoy produo
ed one, and it became evident that
blood would be spilled unless seme
oi.e backed down. On account of a
lame hand, Pollerfivld was unable to
use the revolver. Grasping the situ
ation iu a twinkling, Green snatched
I'otleifield's weapon, and in the flash
of an eye had leveled it at his aula
genista. The room wss crowded
when the quarrel began, but, as may
well be imagined, there was now a
general rush for the door, as well
there might be. Very Jew, if any,
were actual witnesses of the conflict.
Tho fight was of short duration, but
furious. The two men were ou op
posilo sides of tho deal-table, and
OMild almost have struck each other
with their weapons. In much less
time thau is required to tell the story
the occurance Lad come to an end.
The guns in the hands ot both men
wero raised almost simultaneously,
and both fired at nearly the auie
time, the bairelsof tho two pistols
lapping acro-s tho table. Whether
either ball took etl'vct dors not appear,
but it seems quit prebnblo that in
xt-It.erneui both missed their aim,
close as they were to each other. At
any rate, three shots were fired by
each of the parties before the dread
ful duel same to an end, when the
crowd rushed back, to find both men
reeking in blood. McCoy was lying
across the deal-table, and had already
breathed his last. Tho bullet which
had proved fatal had gone direct to
the seat oi lile, passing through the
heart. McCoy ha 1 also given his an
tagonist a ball in the head, which if
it does not prove, or has not. proved,
fatal, will give Green great trouble,
and bo the cause of disfiguring his
countenance for life. Green was
shot in the (eft eye, the ball ranging
down and coming out under the right
jaw.
Ioilinni Hanged.
Pkndleton, Jan, 10,
Via Walla Walla, Jan, 11.
The execution of White Owl and
Quita-tumps, for tbe murder ol
George Coggan near Cayuso Station,
last July, took place this afternoon.
Both were reservation Indians, last
Summer. Thursday and Thursday
night were passed by the Indians in
chanting death soigs aud bidding
their friends good bye. The cere
monies at the gallows were conduct
ed according to rites of the Indian
religion. Both While Owl and Quit
a lumps relused to have anything to
do with the Catholic priests, or to re
ceive other spiritual consolation.
They were attired in clothes given
them by the whites, and their faces
were gaudily painted. Both made
short speeches from the scaffold con
fessing that they did the shooting,
but refused to acknowledge the jus
tice of their late. They continued,
singing death chants until the drop
fell at 2 45 a. m. The fall dislocated
their necks, and both died without
hardly a struggle. Alter hanging lor
seven minutes they were pronounced
dead. The bodits wert cut down and
delivered to thelndiant for disposition
The bodies will be buried to morrow.
Consisltrable demonstration will be
made over the body of Quit-a-tuinrs.
A detachment of the First Cavalry,
under Maj. Jackson, and a number ot
citiz-en volunteers were stationed out
side the jail enclosure during the ex
eculion. Tho military will remain at
the agency until after the hanging ol
Aps, which will tike place next Fri
day. Considerable uneasiness is felt
as 10 the result of the execution, aud
it is not known but that the Indians
profess great fiienship, bot many bv
lieve it only assumed. 1
The execution to day was witnessed
by about 100 persons, inoluding 10
Indians. A great crowd collected
on the outside of the jail eoclosure
and on surrounding housetops.
Everything passed of qaielly. It
is hoped tbe baaging will prove a
salutary lesson to the Indians.

Who Stole Stewart's Body ?"
Oil City Derrick.
This is an age of surprises, W
very much regret to say it, but we
heveevidenco in our possession which
points stronfly to Whitolaw Reid,
Kev. Talmago and George Francis
Train as tho violators of Mr. Stewart'
grave. It is hard to think of these
gentlemen (who have heretofore oc
cupied such high positions in social
and literary circles) as ghouls, grave
robbers and humau hyenas, and yet
the evidence against them cannot
well be set aside. For instance! On
the night of tho outrage Mr. Talmage
left home at the usual hour, about
half past 10, informing his wife that
he was going over to New York te
pL-k up a few tacts lor bis next ser
mon. Mrs. Talmage remarked that
the thing wa getting a trifle thin, or
something to that effect, but finally
gaio her consent, and Mr. Talmage
was ou, Tfuisinng. 1 ta une 01
the Boys Myselt." His hour for re
turning from these ntcturnal excur
sions, Mrs. Talmage states, is about 3
M. JLMd the gentleman return at
that hour on the fatal morning ? He
did not. Ho did not get home until
after daylight. Perhaps tbe gentle
man can account for his strange tardi
ness on this morning ot all mornings',
snd ws know of no better place for
him to bo this than in the open Court.
Now for Mr. Train. A spade waa
undoubtedly used to remove the earth
from tho ess ;et that held the remains.
Now observe: One week before Mr.
Stewart's remains wero stolen, Mr.
Train stepped into a hardware store
iu New ork and purchased short
handled spade, telling the salesman
that he would call on the following
Saturday and pay lor it. The sales
man said that they did a strictly cash
business, but Mr. Train pulled out ft
pocket black-board, and showed him
that the ago had evoluted beyond the
cash system, and intimated th t if ha
was not permitted to purchase tho
spade on true business principles, he
would cut the psyohologio wire be
tween the ostsblishment and its pa
trons, and it would eortainly shoot
the . Niagara of bankruptcy before
sunset next day. II was permitted
to tako the spade. As, if additional
evidence wore needed against Mr.
Train, our attention has been called
to the lact that on the day beiore the
ghastly robbery, ho was seen sitting
on his seoiiNtoined bench in Madison
Squaro, and was heard to repeat the
following lines from tho grave-yard
scene in Hamlet:
"A pick-ax and a spade, a spaJ
For and a shrouding sheet
O, a pit of clay for to be madt 1
For such a guest i meet"
Now let us turn our attention to
Mr. Whittle w Reid. It will be re
mcmbeied that ft coj y of the Now
York Herald was found the mornior
of the robbery at or near ths violated
tomb. Now mark tbe following
lads: 'On tho evening proooding the
morning ol the dastardly outrage.
Whitelaw Reid was seen going into
the lYibunebttt saloon reading
copy of the New York Herald of the
tame date as the one found. A few
moments later Mr. Reid emerged
trotn the saloon, looked oautiously
about him, and when he supposed no
one was watching, placed three car
damon seeds in his mouth and walk
ed rapidly awiiv.
1 hose are tho rock-ribbed and ever
lasting facts. We leave - tho rest te
the police and Judge Hilton, who of
fered the reward. Address as usual.
The Jacksonville Timet tl inks that
