Agent Tiffany's Apaches.
New York Times.
] f the Aiizotm outluvnk is m-nrly
ended , aud if the grc.iter pait of these
\\lio took patt in it have returned to
jlio agency , ns the dispatches declare
it will now not lie amiss for the gov
crnmuiit to investigate promptly nnd
thoroughly its origin , i''or ' thu old
notion that Indiaif wars are duo solely
to thu satanio instincts of the wvvagos ,
who cannot control their desire to
murder somebody , and who according
ly battle , as a once famous poem
phrased it "For the joy they have to
see the uhitu man fall , " has received
a sovuro blow from closer study of the
aborigines , Anil greater facilities in
j finding out their views und purposes.
It has"been learned that in yearly
every instance our hostilities with thu
Indian tribes have resulted from the
bad conduct of thu whites , and that
even in these instances whuru the red
men were not justified , according to
our ideas , * in resorting to war as n
remedy to redress alleged grievances ,
they were justified according to their
own. At last , in the Apaches of thu
southwest it really seemed that we had
found a family of Indians who killed
settlers from i > uru duviltry , such was
their plundering und blood thirsty
nature' Yet uven our warn with the
Apaches have nearly all been traced to
some arbitrary , faithless , fraudulent ,
or simply blundering act , which at
least furnished the occasion and excuse
for an outbreak.
A few weeks before the recent stam-
pcdo of the White Mountain Indians
I ill'uny warned thu military authori
ties tlint thu medicinu men of this
tribe weru brewing trouble by repre
senting to the Indians that their dis
sensions , which had resulted in the
death of many warriors , sprang from
thu evil influence of thu whites , and
that thuy were preaching a crusade
against thu settlements. Having
found that this report of the agent
was in a measure true , the military
authorities proceeded to arrest one of [
the medicine men , in order to check
the trouble at once. Thu result is
well known , but it is now hecoming
clear that the whole of thu difficulty
was not told. It is true that thu im
mediate act of treachery committed by
the enlisted scouts in firing on their
whitu comrades could be accounted for
by their ruverenco for the medicinu !
man as a boini of supernatural power ,
whom it would lie perilous and even
sacriligioiiH to seize , still more to kill.
It wus unfortunate , as matters turned
out , that thu scouts had to he taken
on this duty , but all campaigning. ? : ) so
largely dependent on the Indian
scouts for success that reliance upon
them becomes habitual.
Uut it is reasonable to presume that C
thu medicine men themselves , in
preaching a crusade against thuwhites ,
were only shrewdly responding to a
sentiment of dissatisfaction that
already existed in other words , that
the tribe had either grievances or what
they supix'sed to bo such. Gen. Ord , ?
when the outbreak occurred , suggested -
that probably Agent Tiffany had been
forcing religious observances on the
Apaches , and that lie had sought to
get rid of thu medicine man as a pre
liminary ; but of this there is thus far
im'proof. ' Gen. Crook suspected that
an attempt had been made by the In
dian ofliec to forcu thu Whitu moun
tain band out of their hilly country
down upon the low , sandy , and dry
reservation about San Carlos. Hu [
said that at a former time thu moun
tain part of the reservation was cut oft'
and the hill Indians were nearly oil in :
duced to come down to the plains , but Hi
01
subsequently refused to stay. Still , 01y
there is no evidence that this had any y
thing to do with the outbreak. A
ot
third supposition , equally at random ,
has been that the Indians weru angered reI
I [
real
gered at the completion of the rail al
road , from which the medicine men
feared s ecdyscttlcment by the whites
and the ruin of the Indians. A / :
fourth allegation , and one as little sat-
isfactoryas the others , is that the Ari
zona people have nought to , get posscs-
sion of the San Carlos reservation , as b" ;
the Colorado people did of the Ute
But tlio transnctions of Agimt T if- bc

facto to nccount for the dissatisfaction
of tlio IndiiiiiH. Soinu time Binco a hi
valuable conl deposit \vus discovcrud bt
on the Indian rt'nervution. Last
;
Spring Mr. Orockor of the Southoni
Paciiio Railroad sunt an expert , it ia F
aid , to exainino thcHO conl lands , it
whoso report was HO fnvorablo that to
lu'gotiaiioiiH for their purclmso wore at
mice bt-giiii through Agent Tiffany. It pr
nvt'iTod by George nnd Benito. who ,
with forty of the AVliito Moiuituin
band , rccontlj' sturcndured , ( hat ninny
rif the ehiefH did not wich to Hell the
lands , while others tltought the price ch
too Hiuull , and that Agent Tiffany , by vc
fcpivaenting that the Great Fiithm-
needed the land and would ovonttinlly
Drot it , induced them to touch tlio pun DC
while their ( signatures wt-ro severally
tttjched to an ngreement of sale mi
f all the coal lands
on fho as
reservation. AVhen this agrceineiit nil
iyns wont to Wnshington for rftti- on
lication , Sucrutniy Kirk wood disap- ab
iroved it as being a private tninsao-
ion to secure a part of n public reser
vation , The Indians , who had been hii
elitctant find auspicious from the out
let , were then informed that they
ould not bo paid the price agreed
ipon , because the bargain had not foi
icon ratified at Washington. Accord- hit
4 to the utory now told by the chiefs Al
vho have returned to the agency , this of f
ipparent duplicity on the jmitof the ofwa
igont made the Jndians eoncerned in str
very aifgry , nnd it is'easy to under- loc
and that the chinfs , rememberini ; ly
hat they had Hi'unud awny a jiart of
heir lands and yet had not received wa
heir money , may have believed the bei
vhnlu Hchcmu a trip d ) cheat them , UK
Whether this transaction was the nK
enl or the whole cause of the discon-
ent which caused the putl > reak it
bo left for the government to
ind out ; but it is clearly possible that Is
ho medicine men may have used for ig
heir own purposes of prophecy and sm
ulf-aggnindi/.einent the incident to
rhich had so mortified and angered all uii
ho chiefs- ; and , further , that Tiffany , git
mowing the real source of the trouble , lu
ought to chuck it by arresting tlio an
iiodicino iiiun , Of course , all this on
nust bo largely lut yet a matter of coi
onjccturo ; out the promptness with rig
rliich the returning hostile chiefs com- wa
iluined of this grievance to Gen. Can- "I' |
hews that this is probably the true fur
rack on which an investigation should sla
icgin. Ho far an this individual trans- ma
etion is concerned , while Tiffany has aft
con charged , in public rumor , with litt ;
having a pccuniniy interest in proeui
ing this tnuisfur of thu coal land , an
wiiilo \\ould ho credulous to suppo *
that ho would take no much trouble
and risk his own place , im-roly to b
obliging , still it in conceivable that h
may have acted from thu paidunahl
motive of wi.iliing to utilize a mud
neclud fuel for the railroad instead t
leaving it whcro nobody could prof !
by it. Hut tho.strangeness i > f his pn
posal caused Secretary Kiikwood t

were going on at the S.tu Carl s Agen

A Frontier Incident.
[ < artiinc ! Itoumcrani .
Calamity is the name of a man win
lives j at the gold-camp of Cummins
City. ( Ho has another name , but no
body RCCUIS to know what it is. It has
Imen torn oil' the the 'ivrappor .some
way , and so the buy called him Ca
lamity.
Liist spring ho had a liltlo domestic
trouble , and his wife Hindu complaints
that Calamity had wont out an old
long-handled shovel on heY , trying to
convince her about some obstumo tho-
oiy of his.
The testimony seemed rather against
Calamity , and the minera told him
that as HOOII as the } * got over thu rush
11 little and had the leisure , they would
have to hang him.
Ono evening after the work of the
lay was done and the boys hail eaten
their suppers , ono of them suggested
that it would be a good time to hang
Calamity. So they got things in.shape
ind wont down to the Big Laramie
bridge.
Calamity was with them. They jrot
things rt'ady ' for the exercises to begin ,
ind then asked the victim if ho had
Uirthiii ! { to say. Ho looscnt'd ' thoropo
iround his neck a little with ono hand
> that ho could Hpealc with more freo-
hiiii , and , holding his pantaloons on
tvith the other , ho said :
"ttentlomeii of the conremiim , I
call you to witness that this publio do
inonstr.ition toward me is entirely un
sought on my part. I have neve :

"Plugging along in comparative ob

"How's that ? "
"Wall , there ain't no profit in a p

"What's the reason ? "

ght along for nine hours his system ut

horses , milk four eow , fill up thu wa

didn't grow fat on my work , and they
nllus li-ft mo feeling tliat they hadn't '
half earned their wages. "
llo stopped long unnnifli to wipe a
tonr from ins eye , and tiion wont on :
"And mm look at the hired man of

collars. llo won't eat with a knifo.
Ho wants napkins when ho cats , and
if wo don't liang up a clean towel once
a week ho wipes on his Imndkorehor.
Call him at' ] and he gets up at ( > . Ho
wants a whole hour nt noon , and after
supper ho trots off to a singing-school
or sits dtwn to a newspaper. Fifteen

half a day 1 could dock him. If ho
died I could takeout n month's wage/ / *

change , sir , an awful change , and if a

will witness the dow ufall of agriculture
in this country. "
"Then you won't hire another ? "
"Wall. I can't just say. Work is
powerfully pressing , but I'm going
slow. Ueforo I hire him T want to
know whether hu's a man who'll pass
his plato for more meat and taters ,
and whether we've got to use starch
in doing up his shirts. The lust man

I had done so for three months I found

The other night I passed three
lours at the Palais do 1'Industrie.
[ y visual nerves woie no more tried
lan if I had been staying on a line
uinmor day under the shade of lime
Lrocs. Two great jots of light diverge
from the round windows above the
jrent doer of the exhibition towards
tlio Arch of Triumph and the Place do
la Concorde. The tree tops on which
lomo of the rays full look as if silver-
id over. The obelisk ot Luxor might
> o pile a of snow , to judge of it from
its whiteness. It is oUO motors from w
the lamp projecting the mass of light
tvliicli appears like the tail of a comet ,
nd is so strong that , standing in
the Place do la Concorde , any one
learned in" Egyptian hieroglyphics
lotild decipher those of the obe
lisk. M. Godell's electoral addresses
ut the corner of the Hue do Boctio
formerly lluo dp 1'Oratoiro ) can bo
read also. Siemens lights are used in
the grand vestibule. They are set oil'
by the artistic beauty of the lusters ,
nnd they very rarely oscillate or go
out. Jamiu's light blink n good deal ,
and Jablochkoffs a little. Blinking
is more or less the defect of all the
arc liuhts. Intellectually onu may
not bo nwaro of this defect , but the
wearincs of the eya soon tolls of it.
Siemens , I think , is the most success
ful manufacturer of lamps made ac
cording to the are system. Wcrdar-
man comes close on his heels ; indeed ,
he treads upon them. The nave is
bright as bright can bo at the noctur
nal exhibition. Anything more ex
quisitely beautiful than the gon-
ural view it is impossible to :
conceive. A lighthouse with a
revolving lamp stands in the middle ,
t has a revolving lamp with red , blue ,
rconpurplo and orange glasses. The
patches of colored light which it pro
jects on the cornice of the nave seem
to march proccssionally around it.
There is a calmness of general effect ,
mildness as of moonbeams , n light
is searching as comes from thu sun at
loon , and a coolness of tint as well as
jf atmosphere. None of the hues in
ild Gobelins tapestries are lost or
liinmcd. Pictures , of which there
iro'all that were purchased by the last
jalon , have been left , in order to test I
.lie value of the different systems of
jlectrio lighting. Flowers appear to
jo in sympathy with Queen Electrici-
y. The tails pal urn and trop-
ual ferns look to peculiar advantugo
vlien she is holding her court at tlio
'nlaw do 1'Industrio at nit'lit. There
a greenhouse of black glass into
vhich no solar ray penetrntim , Klec-
ricily stimulates the vitality of plants
hero and brings them to bloom and
icar flowers. Tlioy are in a thorough-
healthy condition , and do not up-
ear ns if tlu-y ever wanted to go to
leep at night. All the twenty-four
lours they are exposed to the r.iys of
tiong electrical lamps. It would ap-
icar that to some extent the chemical
ction of this light will enable garden-
rs to dispense with manure. ,
The are light generally meets with
USB favor from the publio than the
ystem by incandescence , on nccount
the crudity of its glare nnd the fa-
iguing effect it produces on the eyes , M.
iut nil ingenious way lias been diV
nvered for doing away with this ob-
uction , and at the same time for giv-
ng more power thnn the Edison
iwan lamp would give. The system
the invention of Deuce t Co. , n
ory appropriate name , for the soft-
ess of the light is all that could bo
csirod. The liiglit is produced by
ny nro system in elegant vases BUS-
ended from the coiling , at u height
about eight feet from the floor , nnd
ut of which beautiful plants nro
rowing , made doubly luxurious byte
to powerful fertilizing properties of
light. The light , being thus con-
nnlcd in the midst of the vase , dooa
roach the eye directly , but is re-
noted to a white , tightly-stretched
iroular shoot in the ceiling , from
hich is diffuses a mild and yet pow-
rful light through the whole room ,
hero is a slight JOBS of power by this It
ictliod , but this is amply compon-
ited tor by the softness nnd equal
istribution of the light.
