Mr. Marshal's house a few feet from
the stone. The man who fired the
gun was forty rods from where the
ball struck.

This iuu is just the ruouut Elk
county is obliged to pay through
the unwarranted blundering of Dis
trict Attorney Wurssell. In the Ilau
murder case ut Centrevilie the District
Attorney took on himself the respon
sibility, under cover of a certain act of
Assembly which places great power
ln( Irresponsible bauds, to engage a
private detective to ferret out the
perpetrators of the murder at the
Ilau brewery last July. The private
detective presents his bill for the
amount which heads this article
The court under the act of Assembly
approves the hills for there are three
of them, they are certified to the
county commissioners who have no
discretion in the matter and issue or
der to the amount of the bills. From
a first glance at the case it seems that
this money is lost to the county though
tliestupidty or offlciousness of that
worthy official the District Attorney.

A ral'tman mimed Christ Frank
houser, whose home is near Cur wens
ville, and a river policeman, named
Decker, got into an altercation about
a raft at Lock Haven on Saturday
last, which resulted In Frankhouser
striking the policeman on the head
with a heavy club causing serious in
juries. Frankhouser was arrested and
is in jailat Lock Haven. It appears
that Frankhouser had a raft tied, and
the policeman wanted him to move it
farther down. This Frankhouser re
fusen lo do. The policeman picked
up an ax and was about cutting the
rope, when the former pic'ted up a
piece of a lash-pole and struck Decker
on the head and the result may prove
fatal. Clearfield R p ublican.
If Clarendon has readied the cli
max of its greatness it is owing in
part to the high price of oil territory
in the vicinity, the low price of oil
urn! the rates charged for town lots.
II iuli prices for properly an 1 a low
rice for nil is having its effect. A
radical change in this respect may
start C'arendnn to booming again, or
rather curry the boom along. Opera
tions were more active during the
winter months than since spring
opened. But these things will correct
themselves. Property owners some
times have to learn some tilings, and
those in and about Clarendon are
learning. Warren Lttfair.
Torpedo shooters will hardly ap
predate the e'ulwriite care taken by
(he Russian conspirators to ensure the
explosion of the bomb that killed the
C.ar. It was a tin cylinder, six indies
long and three in diameter, containing
about a quart of nitro glycerine.
Down tiie centre was a copper tube,
filled with Bertholet's salt and anti
mony, and through this ran a glass
tube, hermetically sealed, containing
sulphuric acid. A leaden weight was
so placed as to break the gluvt tube
when the bomb struck. The flame
occasioned by the contact of the sul
pliuric add with Bertholet's sa't
passed by a small channel lo a cat
rldge with a fulminating composition
at the hed and gun cotton lielow.
The fulminate fired the gun cotton
and tiie explosion of the gun cotton
ignited the nltro-glyeercne with which
the cylinder was charged. All this
rigmarole would seem senseless to a
moonlighter, who would lie apt to in
sist that if there was a quart of nitro
glycerine in the bomb that would be
enough to throw, ami it would nevd
no fulminate to explode it. The mis
sic would weigh about four pounds.

HIS SPEECH BRFOKR TIIR SIOUX COM
MON COUNCIL.
(Oil City Denlok.)
The following speech of Sitting Bull
has been translated and reported by
our Indian editor, who Is also whole
Hale and retail dealer In deceased lan
guages, and general agent for home
made Sioux rhetoric and amok-tan
ned Indian eloquence. New laid In
dian laments with head trimmings.
Compiler of novel and desirable styles
of war-dances. Indian eloquence
furnished to debating clubs and pub
lishers of school readers.
"Warriors and war-scarred veterans
of the frontier.
Once more the war path Is over
grown with bunch grass, ami the
tomahawk slumbers in the wigwam
of the red man. Grlm-visaged war
has given place to the piping times of
peace. The cold and cruel winter is
upon us. It lias been upon us for
some time.
The wail of departed spirits is on
the nlaht wind, and the wail of the
chilblain answers back from the war
rior's eigwam.
Children of the forest, we are few.
Where once tiie shrtll earhoof tin
c!deft:in collected our tribe lihe the
leaves of tiie forest, I might now yell
till the cows come home without
bringing out a quorum.
We are f.dtnj a stay before the
maroli of the p !e.".cc, and sinking
into oblivion like the snowSeke on
the bonom of tiie Stinking Water.
Warriors, I ;,n the last of a mighty
race. We were a race of Chieftains,
Alas! ec eill soon begone. The Buil
family will soon pa from the face ol
the earth. Ole is gone. John is fail
ing, and I don't feel very well myself.
We are the victims of the paleface,
and our Uuds are taken away.
A few more suns and the civiliza
tion ami valley tan, and hand-made
sour mash, an I horse liniment of the
paleface wi.l nave done their deadly
work.
Our squaws and papooses are scat
tered to the four winds of heaven, and
we are left desolate.
Where is Tlie-Daughter-of-llic-
Tempest? Where is the Wall-Eyed
Maiifen-With-the-Peeled-Nose?
YV litre is ictoria Regina Die Gar
cia Sitting Bail? fv'liero is KnocK
liuecd Chemiloon? Where is Sway
back Sue and Meek-Eyed Govern
ment Socks?
They have sunk beneath the tire
water of tiie gogalcd eyed Caucasian.
They have succumbed to the de-
liriiim triangles, and whn I call them
they come not. They do not bear my
voice. Their moans are heard upon
the still niiht air, and they cry for
revenge. Look at the .sail remnant of
tiie family of Silling Bull, your chief.
One sore-t ed squaw is left alone,
lier face is furrowed o're with the
famine of iu iiiy wi'ifers, ami her nose
is only the ruin of its former great
ness. Her moccasins lire worn out,
and the soldier pants she wears are t o
long for her. She also, is drunk.
She is not us drunk as she can get, bui
she is hopeful and persevering. bbc
lias also learned to lie like a whkc
iiin. She is now an easy, extem
poraneous Ii.tr. When we gather
about the camp fire and enact our tin
tutored lies iti the gloaming. Lueivtia
Borgia Skowhegan Sitting Bull, with
the inspiration of six lingers of agency
collinv.-iriiish, proceeds to tell the
pr xe prevarication, and then the
house adjourns, and nothing ca:i be
iieard but the inullUd tread of the
ageney coin beef going out to get
some fresh air. Lucretia Borgia is
also becoming slovenly. It is even
ing, and yet she lias not donned her
evening l resa. Her back hair is un
kempt, and her front is unhung.
Pretty soon I will take a tamaliawk
ai:d bang it for her. She seems des
pondent and hopeless. As she leans
against the trunk of a mighty oak
and scruti hes her back, you can see
that her thoughts are far away. Her
other suspender is gone, hut she don't
care a cold smooth clam. She is think
ing of her childhood days by the
banks of the Minnehaha.
Warriors we stan iu the moccasins
of a iniahty nation. We represent the
starving remnant of a once powerful
Sioux. Our pirogue stands idly on
tiie shore. I don't know what a
pirogue is, but it stands idly on the
shore.
When the spring flowers bloom
again, and the grass is green upon the
plains, we will once more go upon the
war-pat h. We will avenge the wrongs
of our nation. I have not fully glut
ted my vengeance. I have seven or
eight more gluts on hand, and we will
shout our war-ciy once more, and
mutilate some more Anglo Saxons.
We will silence the avenging cries of
our people. We will spatter the green
grass and gray greasewood with the
gore of the paleface, and feed the
white-livered emigrants to the coyote.
We will spread death and desolation
everywhere, and fiil the air with gum
overshoes und remains. Let us yield
up our live dearly while we mush the
paleface beyond recognition, and shoot
his idred man so full of holes that
he will look like a suspension bridge.
Warriors there Is our hunting
ground. The buffalo, the antelope,
the sage hen and the jackass rabbit
are ours. Ours to enjoy, ours to per
petuate, ours to transmit. The Great
Spirit created these animals for the
red man, and not for the bilious tour
ist, between whose legs the chestnut
sunlight penetrates clear up to his
collar bone.
Then we will ride down on the reg
ular army, when he is thinking of
soniethiug else, and we will scare him
into convulsions, and our medicine
men will attend to the convulsions
while we sample the supplies.
Then we will take some cold 6lieed
Indian agent, and some bay rum, and
go on picnic.
Warriors farewell. Be virtuous and
you will bo happy; but you will be
lonesome sometimes. Think of what
I have said to you about the council
lire, and govern yourselves accord
ingly. We will not murmur at the
celluloid cracker and oust Iron codfish
ball, but In the spring we will have
veal cutlets for break IHst, and peace
commissioner on toast for dinner.
The squaw of Sitting Hull shall have
a new p!u j hut, and if the weather is
severe, she snail have two of them.
Warriors farewell. I nnt done. I
have spoken. I have nothing more to
