Kansas City, Oct. 3. Tlio Clioctuwa
nro poHHOhsi-il of tho most picturcs(tioly
bcnutifiil nnd litluirriitly fcrtilo ortioii
of tlio Indian tctritory. It may with
truth bo said thero enn Rciircoly he
foitnd n liner country on oartli innKtilfl
cent vnlloyn with tliclr rich slmio of
wooded HtrcniuH, Kvutly iiiululatlnj; tip
Inudrt, and nn olyslnii oxpausu of prairio,
wntvrctl by tho ArkanaH, and tho "Heil
river of the houIIi."
The Choctawrt, or, properly. Chains,
when Do Soto, who waa tho Urat ex
plorer ou the continent to meet them
(1540), occupied nn Itiimeiiso region,
now comprised in Mississippi, Alabama,
Georgia nnd Florida, ami, iinllko tlioir
surrounding neighbors, wero peaceably
disposed a nation of farmera, nitioli
further advanced in civilization than
any other tribe.
This tribo bus produced Homo of tho
greateut charactera in Indian history,
whoso deeds liavo long ago been woven
into tho archives of the United States,
nnd it baa Iweti my fortune to have
known ono or two Intimately and many
of tho lineal descendanta of othera.
Tho most conspicuous of all, and tho
ono whoso memory la revered to this day
with almost a saint llko adoration, waa
"l'ush-ma-ta-ha," which means "Tho
warrior'a seat ia llnished."
Ho was bom in Mississippi in 1705,
nnd died in Washington, D. U., Dec. 24,
1834. Ho had distinguished himself ou
tho warpath before ho waa 20 yeura oldl
Ho joined an expedition against tho
Osngca, whoso country lay west of tho
great river, nnd was laughed at by the
older members of tho party because of
hia Ixiyishneaa nnd propensity to talk.
Tho Osagea wero defeated in a conflict
that lasted nn entire day. "I'ush-nm-ta-ha"
disappeared early in tlio fight,
and when ho returned to the camp at
midnight, ho was jeered at, nnd openly
accused of cowardice. "Let thoso laugh,"
waa hia reply, "who can show more
scalps than I," whcrcuion ho took flvo
from hia pouch and throw them on tho
ground I
They were tho result of nn onslaught
ho had made singlo handed on tho en
emy's rear nnd this fetit gained for him
tho title of "Tho Eagle."
After Hpending several years in Mex
ico, ho went alono to nTorauqua village
killed seven men with Ids own band,
nnd made good hia retreat uninjured.
During tho next two years ho made three
additional expeditions into tlioTorauqua
country and added eight fresh scalps to
his war costume.
For fifteen yearn afterwards ho seemed
to have slipped out of history, but in
1810 waa living on tho Tombigbeo river,
and had the reputation of being an ex
pert Indian ball playe-.
During tlio war of 1812 ho promptly
took sides with tho United States, and it
was through hisoloquonconnd inllueuco,
at tho great council ordered by Tecum
sob, tho'colobrated Shawnee, for tho pur
Kso of uniting atl tho southern Indiana
witli the English, that tiie ptirposo of
tho council was defeated nnd tho Choc
taws sided with our people.
That memorable council was held on
the Tombigbeo river, about flvo miles
north of where Columbus, Miss., now is.
It lasted ten days and nights, nnd nt
llrstall tho warriors counseled neutrality
but John Pitclilynn and "Push-ma-ta-hal"
Tccumseh mado tlio grandest oratorical
clTort of his life, and apparently had it
all his own way until Push-ma-ta-ha,
who was then 54, addressed tho assem
blage, and then tho great Shawnee chief
could only persuade n portion of tho
warriors to follow him.
Tlio proceedings of that famous coun
cil must huvo been solemnly impressive,
but no olllclal record, of course, was
kopt, because tho Indians who partici
pated at that timo wero "untutored sav
ages," and without a written language,
for it was not until ten years afterwards
that So-quo-yah, the Cadmus of tho Cher
okees, completed his alphabet.
Some of tho spectacular features of tho
mighty gathering wero told to mo six or
soven years ago by tho son then an old
man of ono of tho earliest Baptist mis
sionaries to tho Choctaws, who was pres
ent (tho Hov. Mr. Cushman), and who
often related tho story to his family.
Ono of tho ceremonies particularly In
terested me, because it resembled tlio
sacriflco of tlio Jows during tho admin
istration of Moses but I am not ono of
thoso who believe in the theory that tho
Indians of America uro descendants of
"tho lost tribes of Israel;" I am (Inn in
my conviction of an indigenous origin
for tlio primitive peoples of this conti
nent, which many of their traditions
confirm. Tho ceremony referred to was
tho demand miido by tlio prophet of tho
tribo do called, and who hi the Choctaw
cult of that period, bccmcd to bear tho
same relation to his people as tho "med
icine man' of today among tho Plains
Indians. This prophet, to more defi
nitely deti'imini' the question of neu
trality, or whether the nation should sldo
with the English or Americans in tho
impending war, ordeied brought to him
"a spotless red heifer" w lib which to
piopltiale the "(Iieut Spirit" and lenrn
Ilia desires or advice on the vexed ques
tion! The required animal was shortly pro
duced, a huge altar of logs constructed,
the beast with much ceremony slaugh
tered by the prophet, lis naked carcass
dedicated to the flames, and while tho
thick hinnke of the olTcriug was ascend
ing to theclouds. betook the bloody bide,
and commanding every warrior to throw
himself prouo upon tho ground, face
downwaid, which, as soon as ho was
obeyed, ho wrapped himself up in and
waited for a communication from tho
Great Spirit!
Moro than an hour was occupied in
tills curious hut Impressive Incantation;
meanwhllo not n warrior moved from
his abject position; not n sound disturbed
tho awful sllenco snvo tho' crackling of
tho logs and tho sluing of tho heifer's
flesh as It burnt on tho high nltnr. Then
when tho sacriflco waa completed hy tho
exhaustion of materials tho prophet rose,
himself all bloody, nnd gavo tho signal
for tho Indians to stand erect mid listen.
Ho told them hn had heard from tho
Great Spirit, and thoy wero directed to
ally thomsolves with tho Americans
against tho English; upon which an
nouncement thoy nil, to a man, lifted up
their tomahawks, tho sign that thoy
would oloy tho inundate of tho prophet,
tho representative of tho Great Spirit,
nnd then they dispersed.
A portion of l'ush-ma-tn-hn'a speech
nt that wonderful council has been pro
served. Until tho last day ho kept si
lent, then rising ho saidt "Tho Creeks
wero onco our friends. Thoy havo
joined tho English, and wo must now
follow different trailsl When our fathers
took tho hand of Washington thoy told
him tho Choctaws would always bo tho
friends of his nation, and Piish-ma-ta-hn
cannot bo false to their promise. I am
now ready to fight against both tho Eng
lish and Creeks I and my warrlora nro
going to Tuscaloosa, nnd when you hear
from us again tho Creek fort will bo lu
nsheal"
Tho Creeks and Scmlnolca allied them
selves with tho Ilritlsh, and Push-ma-tn-hn
mado war on both tribes with such
onergynnd success that tho whites called
him "Tlio Indian General."
In 1821 ho went to Washington In or
der, in his own phraseology, "to brighten
tho chain of pence between tho Amer
icans and tho Choctaws." Ho waa
treated with great consideration by
President Monroe and John C. Calhoun,
secretary of war. A record of hia com
munication nt that timo may bo found
in tlio archives of state.
After a visit to Iafayetto, ho waa tak
en seriously ill, and llndlng that ho was
Hearing hia end ho expressed tlio wish
that ho might bo hurled with military
honors nnd that "big guns might bo
fired over his grnvo." Thoso requests
wero complied with nnd n procession
moro than a mile in length followed him
to Ida resting place in tho Congressional
burying ground.
Gen. Andrew Jackson, whom Push-nia-ta-ba,
It la alleged, was with at
tho battle of Now Orleans, frequently ex
pressed the opinion, "that ho was tho
greatest nnd tho bravest ludinn ho had
over known." John Itaudolph of Hoa
noko, while pronouncing n eulogy upon
htm in the United States senato, declared
that "ho was wiso in council, eloquent
In nn extraordinary degree, nnd on nil
occasions and under nil circumstances
tho white man's friend."
Many anecdotes of this celebrated
Choctaw aro current ninong tho nation
today, whoso peoplo never tiro of talking
about him.
Onco, when in company with a party
of young ofllcers In camp, thoy began to
boast of their ancestry; ono was related
to Lord So-and-so, another to Count
Somebody, nnd still another a descendant
of tho Earl of Something. At last one of
tho crowd turned to Push-ma-tn-hn nnd
asked him whero ho had come from.
Tho old wnrrlor roso In nil his dignity,
nnd striking himself, said: "A great
many years ago, during a terriblo storm
in tho forest, tho lightning struck a largo
whlto oak tree, splitting it wido open,
and out jumped Push-mn-ta-ha, a full
armed warrior!" But tho old chief only
meant this satirically, and as a rebuke to
tho young gentlemen's boasting.
Once, when strolling around tho camp,
ho camo across n privnto 6oldier tied up
by tlio wrists to a treo near tho guard
tcnti Ho asked why tho man was being
punished in that manner; "for getting
drunk," soino one told him. Ilo then
took out his knifo nnd cut tho poor fel
low down, remarking as ho turned away:
"Shouldn't tie u wurrlor up like that
just for gettli)g(lrunk; nil warriors get
drunk; sometimes Push-mn-tn-hn gets
drunk."
Another timo one of Ids wives camo
into camp at that period tlio Choctaws
practiced jwlygamy nnd a private sol
dier said something disrespectful to her,
whereupon Push-mu-tn-hii drow his
sword nnd struck him over tho head
with the flat sldo. Tho general, hearing
about it, asked him what ho had dono it
for. Push-ma-tn-ha replied, "Becnuso
ho had insulted ono of my wives; but If
it hud been you, Gen, Jaokson, I would
havo used tho point I"
IlUNHY lNMAN.
Why Hamilton Fought. Ilnrr.
Hamilton's son, Philip, a fow years bo
fore, while defending his father from
political nttacks, had become embroiled
in a duel. Ho had mot his antagonist at
Weehawken, opposlto New York, and
been killed. Hamilton nt this timo was
so impressed with tho noxious inllucnco
of tho code that ho published a pamphlet
against it.
But thero wero ninny reasons why it
was difficult for him to declino to meet
Burr. Ho had formerly sanctioned tlio
practice ho now condemned by serving
as second to Col. Laurens lu n duel with
Gen. lice, ilia own son had fallen three
years before in (us it was considered nt
tho time) a vindication of his father's
honor. Ilo was prominent as an aspi
rant for the first olllco in tho gift of tho
peoplo. Today n duel would doubtless
decide the question against him. Then
ho regarded a refusal to fight na fatal to
his chances. Had ho possessed a cer
tain moral strength, often deficient in
some of tho Humlltons, ho would havo
acted upon his convictions. Ho was too
weak to do this nnd accepted tlio chal
lenge. At a inieting of tlio Academy of
Sciences at Paris recently, M. Mascnrt
gavo a truo uccount of tho striking bv
lightning of tho Kille! tower, which tool
place on Aug. 11). and exaggerated re
ports of which appeared in tlio daily
papers. Tho conductor wus struck, with
tho normal results, showing perfect com
munication with earth, nnd consequent
ly complete safety of tho structure from
any danger on this score.

Should it Iki "Kmjioror of Germany" or
"German limtierori" This is onoof tho ques
tions periodically in dispute. Every year or
so tho witiio mistake is mado, and Is followed
by tho same correction. Soino ono sioaks of
tho head of tho German Confederation as the
"EnijHiror of Germany," nnd thon tho fat li
in tho lira Some ono olso of tho "Suiorlor
Porfcon" tyjMj writes to say that ho has al
ways boon taught to uso tho tltlo "Gormnii
Emperor," and would bo glial to know If ho
is wrong in w doing. And then a day or two
after nil tho special correspondents weigh In
with an assurance that tho Stqicrlor Person
fs all right and the "Emperor of Germany"
all wrong. During tho last day or two tho
disoasohas appeared und run Its usual course.
Tho Court Circular, in iUnccountof William
IPs visit to England, spoko of him through
out as the "Enioror of Germany;" "M. P."
wroto to Tho Times to call attention to tills
fact, and to nsk for explanations, and tho ex
planations aro today provitlod by Its Berlin
and Brussels correspondents.
"Gorman Emperor" is right, of course,
nnd really It should not bo very difficult to
remomber tho fact, when tho origin of the
present Gorman empire is taken Into account.
Tho hood of tho old German empire based his
titlo, to a largo extent, upon territorial right.
But tho modern head of tho Germans buses
his pro-emlucnco ujiou no considerations save
thoso laid down In tho Imperial constitution.
In 1671 tho other Gorman nationalities wero
much too Jealous of tho Prussians to restore
tho old empire for tho benefit of their king.
Instead thoy raised up a now empire, and
gavo Its head a now tltlo, as a standing me
morial of tho various forces which brought it
Into being. William II Is "Gorman Emper
or;" it Is jwsslblo that ho would llko to bo
"Enqxiror of Germany;" but whllo ho may
long retain tho former title, ho is hardly
llkoly over to gain tho latter. London Globo.

A thrilling adventure occurred on tho Los
Piiiou river, near tlio famous Tolteo gorge.
A party of eastern oxcursloul.ts, enjoying an
outing hi tho mountains under tho guldanco
of tho well known passenger agent of tho
Burlington, I C. Blnkesloo, wero encamped
near tho gorgo ono night when a largo cinna
mon boar entered tho camp, being attracted
hy tho smell of venison, which tho party had
killed tho day before.
Tho alarm was given by an Irish better be
longing to the jarty, who at onco nttucked
tl.u bear mid was stretched lifeless from ono
blow of bruin's paw. For a fow moments it
boomed that tho party, being nt tho mercy of
tho monster, would bo annihilated, as ovory
ono seemed too much bcni til to think of de
fense. At this Juncture Mr. Blnkeslco, who had
possessed hluibclf of a breechloudhig shotgun
loaded with buckuhot, appeared ou tho scono
and, deliberately taking aim, llrod tho first
barrel, which seemed to huvo tho elfift of en
raging tho animal, who reared on his hind
legs and advanced on his assailant, who again
took aim ami fired tlm rcnial- ,ng charge
l)int blank Into tho . ry fuco of tho bear,
which toro his head . ploces. Ilo sank to
the ground and after a terriblo death strug
