Prestau, the man who set the tosvn
of Colon on lire, has been tried by
court martial and hanged. He was
an illiterate halt-breed, and was bet
ter entitleil to the nanio of a bandit
than a revolutionary chief. The
burning ot Colon could uot in any
event have helped tho political cause
lo which he professed attachment.
It was a pure piece of deviltry, and
was righteously punished. In Cen
tral and South America unsuccess
ful revolutionists expect to expiato
their offense on the scaffold, and that
it is so is one of the standing evi
dences of the backwardness of civili
zation in these countries. IJut in
the most civilized country in tho
world :i rebel who burned down a
town of non-combatants, when tho
fire inflicted no particular damago on
his enemj, would probably meet tho
same fate as Prestnn.
The case of that other half-breed,
Lvnis Kiel, who is to hang in a fort
night if he is not reprieved or his
sentence uot commuted, is very dif
fcrent Kiel headed an uprising ot
his people which was based on cer
tain alleged wrongs of theirs. They
claimed that they Lad been unjustly
deprived of lands to which they wjcre
entitled. They could obtain no 're
dress in the courts So thoy did as
people similarly situated have done
all through histoiy they rose in arms
with lviel at their head. They vero
put down by foice of arms aud Kiel
was capiun d. According to the law
and practice of Great JJritain until
the nineteenth century, Kiel's life
would be forfeit. If the American
colonies had been subjugated, Wash
ington would probably have been
hanged. It was tho fashion of that
day. Kut that fashion has gone out.
Tho English did not hang any one
after having suppressed the Canadian
rebellion in 1S37-33. The Prench
revolutions of 1S3S, 1SJS and 1870 in
volved the executions of no political
leaders. We executed no one but
Wirtz and the murderers ot Lincoln
after the closo of the rebellion. The
principle which governs such cases
to-day is that an insurgent who hon
estly believes in the justice of his
cattse, and conducts his campaign
in obedience to the laws of civilized
warfare, is not a proper subject for
tho infliction of tho supreme penalty.
keitim; AX ACCOUNT.
Nuw Yo;:k, Sept 7. A AVashinglon
special says: A gentleman familiar
with the affairs of tho Chinese lega
tion, says that ever since the last
treaty with China was proclaimed,
oflicials of that government in tho
United States have carefully pre
served a record of all outrages com
mitted on Chinese in this country,
together with affidavits and evidence
such as diplomatic agents are ex
pected lo get when required to do so,
to furnish their government with
positive proof of wrongs alleged.
The Wyoming massacre, he says, will
culminate in a massing of evidence
for a first-class demaud for reparation
aud 5-alisfaclion. Not that China has
paiticular need of indemnity for the
destruction of property, iujury to la
borers aud the murdering of inoffen
sive people, but the United Stales
being at the head of enlightened na
tions, theso accumulated evidences
ot our superior civilization may some
day be offered in extenuation of sim
ilar acts by citizens of China, alleged
to be only partially civilized.
"I need not tell you," he continued,
"that satire is a very potent weapon
with Chinese diplomats, and I have
already heard tho remark that the
Chinese minister will be exceedingly
gratified when ho knows that there
are post routes in tho neighborhood
of the assaulted laborers which re
quire tho presence of United States
troops lo keep them under protection.
If his countrymen cannot be protect
ed it will be a pleasure for Chen Yiu
Huan lo hear that government mail
routes are protected, though this act
of friendship on the part ot the
United States is not a treaty of obli
gation. Yon can imagino how tho
members of the legation hero were
provoked to scornful laughter when
they read tho orders of the war de
partment to Gen. Schofield about in
terference in the affairs of a terri
tory. Kurncil to Death.
Littme Kock, Sept 7. The Gu
Zillvs Washington, Arkansas, special
says: "A mob on Sunday night vis
ityd tho Pike county jail at Mur
freysboro, and mado an attempt to
shoot the Polk boys, confined for
murder, but not bsing able to get
within range, tho mob hauled a load
of wood to the jail, piled it around
the cell, saturated the wood with coal
oil and literally roasted both prison
ers alive. Nothing is standing but
tho brick walls of tho jail. The Polks
murdered a peddler last year, and
havo had several trials. Tho affair
created great excitement, and this
was the third effort by tho mob to kill
them.

MADniD, Sept. 7. Dispatches just
received regarding German occupa
tion of Yap state that Spaniards on
the island had hoisted the Spanish
flag, and had lowered it at sunset for
the night, as is customary with all
nationalities, and that immediately
afterwards thoGerman gunboat ran
in, landed marines and sailors, hoist
ed the German colors and formally oc
cupied the place, despite the protest
ations of tho Spaniards. Count Pis
marck has offered to withdraw the
German forces from Yap, provided
Spain will not occupy 'it, pending a
diplomatic solution of, the question
as to Spain's claim over tho island.
Germany will acknowledge Spanish
occupation of Yap, provided Spain
proves that the Spanish flag had
been hoisted on the island before the
German gunboat had arrived in the
harbor. Excitement in Madrid over
the affair has quieted down. Every
thing was tranquil last night
Behlik, Sept. 7. A semi-oflicial
nolo describes the hoisting of Ihe
German flag at Yap as preliminary
and without prejudice to an ultimate
agreement between Germany and
Spain. Prince Bismarck, who is at
Varsiu, signifies no intention of leav
ing there. The statement that Spain
had refused to submit tho question of
ownership of the Caroline islands to
an arbitration is not confirmed, nor
is it believed, for the reason that
such a refusal would probably result
in decisive action by Germany for re
tention of tho islauds. War i3 re
garded as entirely out of the ques
tion. The worst that can happen
because Spain refused to apologize is
a suspension of diplomatic relations.
Paws, Sept l.Lu France pub
lishes a statement to-day to tho effect
that a mob had murdered the Ger
man consul at Saragossa, Spain. The
report is not believed, and no inform
ation in confirmation of the story has
been received.

Tho following are instructions rel

claims aud commuted home
stead entries: 'The claimant must
show at least six months' residence
next preceding date of final proor,
which must be made 'on the day and
at the place advertised.' Kcsidcnce
must be actual inhabitancy of, and
not occasional visits to the land. The
party must actually reside upon, cul
tivate aud improve the land for at
least the period above mentioned.
Persons doing business in town and
residing there, or elsewhere than on
the land entered or tiled for, or oth
erwise not actually living on the laud,
must not be allowed to acquire title
thereto by pretext or assumption of
'constructive residence.' The char
acter of the improvements aud
amonut of cultivation must be such
as will evideuce entire good faith on
the part ot the claimant Persons
applying to give notice of their inten
tion to submit proof should bo ad

iture of time and money if they will
uot be able on the day fixed lo show
full compliance with the law."

London, Sept S. The ameer of
Bokhara has abdicated in favor of
his son Turaui, who is inimical to
Kussian interests and friendly to
wards England. Knssia has deter
mined to extend her railway system
through Bokhara, despite the pro
tests of Turani. Tho Bokharan em
bassy is at present in St. Petersburg
discussing the question with tho Kus
sian ministry. A conces-ion for build
ing a railway was obtaiued by Kussia
from the fathor of Turaui, and is
in connection with the Traus-Ciispian
railway.
