There was a largo meeting of the Irish Na
tional luuyuo In Fit/gcruld hull yesterday
afternoon. The cliulr was illlud by Hon.
John Flt/gcrald. The committee intrusted
with the drawing up of u programme of re-
rpptlon to the Irish delogutes made their re
port , which was unanimously udoptcd. Local
hoclctles will escort the distinguished visitors
with iniiHic to tlm opera hotiso. A largo num
ber of the most distinguished citizens huvo
been invited to occupy seats on the platform ,
wliilo the gallery and body of the hall , it is
believed , will bo crowded.
At the request of Mr. Fitzgerald ,
Secretary Sutton gave u brief account
of his trip oust to rccivo the delogutes on
their arrival in America. Ho stated that hemet
met the visitors as they descended from the
ileck of the Arizona and accompanied them
on their tour through Massachusetts. The
reception in Now York was immense. Cooper
institute hall was puckod with friends of the
cause , including the gallant Sixty-ninth regi
ment in uniform , and a largo contingent of
the Ancient Order of Hibernians. Distin
guished Americans of every shade of relig
ion and political thought occupied the plat
form , among them the chairman , Charles A.
Dana. Judge Noah Uavis , Governor Biggs ,
of Delaware , and Mayor Cleveland , of Jersey
City. In Massachusetts the ovations at Full
JUvcr , Hojyoke , lioston , Lowell and Worces
ter were ( repeated triumphs. The streets
were illuminated and densely packed with
people , escorts weio formed of various bodies ,
military companies , Hibernians , temperance
cadets and other societies. The great
IJoston theater was crowded from door to
doino. Governor Ames presided , and a largo
number of New England celebrities were
noticed on the platform. Mayor Abbott pro-
Hided ut Lowell and Senator Hoar at Wor
cester. In speaking of Sir Thomas Grattan
Ksmondo , the venerublo Massachusetts
Htatosman said that when I3cnamin ] Frank
lin sought the sympathy of the Irish nation
for the people of America , then on the eve of
their gre.it and happily successful struggle ,
ho was welcomed on the floor of the Irish
house of commons by Henry Oral tun , ami
now it was right und Just that the American
people should give a hearty reception to the
youthful descendant of the great and noble
Henry Grattan , and icturn the compliment
to the Irish people. Mayor O'Connor , of
Holyoke , and Mayor Cummings , ut Fall
Klver , also proved themselves gentlemen of
splendid energy and waim kindness. Mr.
Sutton spoke in terms of high admiration of
Hon. John .1. Donovan and of the great hos
pitality of tlio Hoston Irishmen.
The speaker then gave a description of the
deli-gates.
"Arthur O'Connor ' , M. P. , for East Done
gal , " said ho , "is a tall , powerfully built
man , of some forty odd yours , with u serious
faeo , which leaves the unmistakable impres
sion that beneath Its rold Impassivencss
there is a deep lire of mastered energy.
O'Connor is u slow , delibcruto speuker. Ho
knows of what he speaks , ho means every
word ho utters , and without that quality
Which generally passes for eloquence , ho
gradually interests his hearers and forces
tlioni , as It were , to give him their attention.
When ho has ceased ho has fully convinced
his audience that the speaker is a man to bo
relied on , an enemy to bo feared , u sterling
man of deepest thought and active en-
orgy. As a companion ho is ono of the most
nmiablo of men , cheerful , pleasant , with a
fund of miccdoto and of a most unassuming
ilisposition. "
Sir Thomas Henry Grattnn Esmondo. M.
P. for South Dublin , and u b.uonot whoso
title dutes back to lb'13. Is u very young
man of slight but firm build , and of medium
height. Ills clean shaved face has a hand-
BOIUO cast and a very prepossessing expres
sion , with a striking resemblance to the portrait
trait of his grout ancestor. Henry Grattan ,
taken when ho moved the "Declaration of
IVish Hlghts. " Sir Thomas is a ready
speaker and has a happy method of ingratiat
ing himself with his audience , while ho pos
sesses a facility forncutly weaving Incidental
points into the web of his discourbo , and
frequently makes his speech sparkle with
genuine Irish wit. Ho' is thoughtful withal
and very earnest. Judge Noah. Davis and
Senator Hoar expressed the belief that later
in life Sir-Thoums Grattan Esmondo will add
another name to the long list of eminent
Irish statesmen. In privateho is a happy
and jovial young Irishman , most amiable in
character and very fond of u good cigar.
Unllko many who visit our shores ,
the faithful baronet is charmed with
America and Americans. As un Jrish patriot
ho is intensely national. Ho has in his veins
on the maternal side the blood of Grattan ,
and is the great grandson of the gallant John
Ksmondo who gave his life for Irish freedom
in IT'.W. Tliis is B distinction prouder than
any title king or kaiser could confer. Such
am the two distinguished men who will in a
few days be the guests of our city , to thank
the friend * of Ireland in the capital of Ne
braska for their unswerving Obslstanca to the
CUUBO of liberty , and to ask a contlnuanco of
that support until Ireland's i ight of tyranny
shall give place to the dawn of u happier
day. "
A Fllir. EXTINGUISH ! : ! ! FOU CA S.
Colonel Thomas Pi ice. the railroad con
tractor of Hennett , boa Unished his contracts
for the year and is getting ready to start for
i Chicago to have his lire extinguisher put In
operation. Two prominent Chicago railroad
men were hero last summer making a crit
ical examination of the invention and wantIng -
Ing to get an interest in the machine. With
this simple and cheap extinguisher placed in
coaches there need bo no fear of lire in case
of a wreck. The Invention was privately
tested in this city In the summer and to those
who sr.w it there is no doubt hut that it will
do its work and In case of a wreck it will ex
tinguish a flro in a coach stove before a
splinter would bo broken from a cur. Colonel
Prlcoisupiactlcai man and his fuith in the
invention is unbounded. Ho is confident that
it Is every way safer than steam heated cars
and the risk of scalding passengers with es
caping steam.

INDIAN CIVILIZATION.
Great Advancement Being oSfado by
the Cocur I'Alciie .
Washington Letter : The most ro-
mnrkiiblo instance of Indian civil
ization is to bo found away up
in the Rocky mountains in Idaho among
the Coour D'Aloncs. Their chief , Sol-
tico , is now in Washington , and ho Ittis
made a most pleasant impression on the
president , Secretary Lamar. Indian
Commlbsionor Atkins and all with whom
.ho has como in contact. Soltico is a
firm-looking old mini of medium height ,
heavy sot and clothed in the ordinary
garments of a white man. His face is
kindly and intelligent.
The old man cnino lipro to urge the
president to allow a railroad to bo run
through his reservation. The Union
Pacific and the Northern Pacific both
want to run a "fecdor"thrqugh the rich
Cocur D'Aleno country , but congress-
last winter made no decision in the mat
ter and gave no right of way to any
road. The Coour D'Aleno ' chief wants
the president to lot the Northern Paciiio
build into his country this summer.
"Wo are not many , " &aid the old
man , through his interpreter , when I
called on him. "There are perhaps
four hundred Occur D'Aleno ' families.
Wo live like you white people on farms.
Yes , wo live better than many white
people. Wo are in beautiful mountains
and valleys , and wo hunt for the pleas
ure of hunting , but wo have fine horses ,
and many cattle and largo Holds of grain.
How much grain do wo rnieo'/Iu all 12-5-
( KK ) bushels. Wo cut it with harvest
ing machines , and young men work the
machines. They thrash out the grain
in the cool fall on the ground with their
colts. The freighters and the army and
while people everywhere buy our grain ,
but wo use much ourselves. Wo shall
have much more if wo can have a rail-
road. Schools ? Yes , wo have good
schools , which sisters teach , and our
boys and girls can read and sow well.
Wo .shall boon ask the great father not
to pay us bchool money. Wo can pay
for our schools ourselves. They told mo
the railroad would spoil our land ,
that it was very beautiful , and many
travelers in good clothes and much
money would como and make our people
trouble. They may como ; they cannot
hurt my people. My people have good
heads and work hard. They will sell
the travelers milk and bread and make
them pay much money for coming to see
our beautiful land. They tell mo your
" 3real Chief ( General Sherman ) will
omo to live near us ; that ho will build
fine house ; that ho says our land is
lie most beautiful ho has over seen ,
mil ho has seen all lands under the sun.
Well , ho blumld come. The Cceur
d'Aleno people will bo glad. They
ivill give him fine horses and catch fish
'or him. Wo shall not have a railroad
Ills summer. Wo must drive eighty
: niles to the railroad for another year.
We hope congress will give us nrailroad
next winter. "
Seltieo was urged powerfully by Chief
Joseph , the Noz Porco , to join him in
war against the United States. The
: > ld man listened respectfully to his
friends , the No/ Forces , and then in a
speech of burning eloquence advised
them to desist from their mad thirst for
war , and told them ho and his people
would not light the whites. The Nez
Forces insisted ho must join them , and
" 10 told them in the most decided man
ner that if they tarried an hour longer
on their errand ho would arrest them
und turn them over to the whites.
When the outbreak came Sollico and
lis men protected the whSto settlers
and their stock from the Nez Forces ,
and the whites got up a big petition to
have the old chief suitably rewarded.
President Arthur gave him a silver
medal and President Cleveland gave
him a similar one.

The Oilier SlOe of tlio Story.
A disgubtcd traveler writes from Los
Angeles , Cal. , to the Chicago Tribune :
All they can boast of in this town is a
boom built upon deception and without
other foundation. Even thc-Hmato is
a fraud ; everything is overrated It
hasn't rained for six months. The dust
is six inches deep , and , when the wind
blows , one can't see half a block. Trees
that might bo beautiful are an eyesore
on account of the dust and sand. Nothing
grows except under irrigation not ono
sprig of grass or any other vegetation.
All of Los Angeles would bo a desert
did they not irrigate. Expecting to
find a laud of milk and honey , you find
sand and dust , intermingled with big ,
barren hills and mountains , and a class
of people who nro five yours behind the
cast in everything. They ask from $25
to $45 a month for a small room in a
private houbo , without board , gas , bather
or any convenience whatever. In fact ,
there are no accommodations for
strangers. Why people como hero I
have yet to find out.
The passion for room-routing and that
for gambling in real estate are about
equal , and wo poor eastern "tender-
feet" ( so they call us ) pay the penalty.
They ask $ ; > 3,000 for a house and lot that
could bo bought in Chicago for half the
price. Nearly all the buildings are of
frame made from redwood. There is
scarcely a brick building in the whole
town. I asked a real estate man why a
single lot was considered worth $10,000.
"Sell it while the boom lasts or you are
gone , " was his cheerful reply. They
gamble in land worsp than Chicago does
in wheat , and with moro fatality.
Town property is worth only what
speculators make out of those
who are not posted as to
its real value. Chinamen are the
chief producers. The inhabitants are
mainly Texans , Mexicans , Spaniards
and Italians , with a few eastern people
and some old Californians , who are hos
pitable and whole soulod. The street
cars are too small for any use ; passen
gers on them have to get out to lot
other passengers on or oft . They make
about four trips in two hours , and the
main street line is run by a man and a
mule.
Such is the thrift and prosperity ol
the world renowned health resort , Lew
Angeles. The climate and all its
boasted advantages are purely imagin
ary. There is nothing beautiful or
health-giving in its surroundings.

HIS HAIR STANDS ON END.
But Luck Saves Him , and He Lives
to Tell a Very Thrilling
Tale of the
Frontier.
I had been camped for a month in
the Wind river mountains , Wyoming ,
says a western writer , before I got an
Indian alarm. I had como up from
Fort Bridgor with a pack mule and
plenty of traps and provisions , and by
traveling mostly at night and taking
every pains to hide my trail , I had es
caped the attention of the redskins.
Having gained the upper end of the
valley , I found a safe spot for the mule
and plenty of game for my traps. For
the first two weeks I did not discharge
my rifle once. I was trapping for fur ,
and what fresh meat I needed I killed
with the bow and arrow. In twenty-
five days I had u mule load of furs. I
had but to eet my traps and wait a lit
tle. It must have been years since anyone
ono had hunted or trapped in that val
ley , for the hares would scarcely run
away , and on three or four occasions
black-tailed door stopped at half pistol
shot and gazed at mo as if they had
never been a human being before.
The discovery which so vexed and
alarmed mo was made early in the
morning. ' I had my camp close in the
base of the mountains on the cast side
of the valley , while the mule was hid
den on the west side , about opposite. I
had inclosed him in about half an ncro
of ground , on which there was a spring ,
by building up a light brush fence and
by hobbling hinij and it had boon my
custom to visit him at least every other
day. My furs were stored in a cave
forty rods above my camp as fast as ac
cumulated , and I had neglected no precaution -
caution which experience could sug
gest. Each morning it was my custom
to climb to a lodge of rocks overhang
ing my camp and take a careful survey
of the valley through a field glass which
I had carried for years. On this occa
sion I had scarcely turned the glass
down the valley when I discovered
three Indians , each mounted , and a
pack horse following. They were not
in war dress , but three bucks who had
como into the valley on the same errand
as myself.
I was boiling mad over the advent of
visitors. All my luck was gone in a
moment , and I might consider it a great
stroke of fortune if I gotoff alive and loft
them my mule and furs. The follows
were ton miles away when I first sighted
them , and I had a little time to reflect
on my course. They would certainly
como up the valley as high as my camp ,
and it was certain that 1 would have to
move. The idea of giving up all I had
gained and sneaking off empty handed
was too repugnant to" bp acted on , and
iftor I had spent ten minutes watching
the trio I descended the ledge with a
firm determination not to leave the val-
ey. I had not yet lighted a fire to prepare -
pare my breakfast. I gathered up all
the brands , covered tlio ashes with
eaves and dirt , and worked for a quar-
, or of an hour to obliterate nil signs of
-ho camp. My furs in the cave must
, ako their chances. It waa a well hid
den spot and the Indians might or
might not discover it. My destination
was a gulch or canon a mile farther up
the valley , and my side of it. I had
twice passed the entrance , but had
never explored the gulch. It doubtless
contained some hiding place or point of
idvnntago. and I would bo forced to seek
shelter until I know what the Indians
purposed doing.
Tno redskins were coming up the val
ley at a slow pace , and I had entered
the gulch half un hour before they
were opposite my camp. Standing ut
the mouth of the gulch I could see
them very plainly. From their move
ments I Judged they had never boon in
the valley before , or at least not as high
up. While they were not looking for
signs of white men , and had no suspi
cion of my presence , their hawk eyes
soon mndo a discovery. They ran onto
a footprint , nn overturned stone or
some other proof of the presence of a
human being , and a moment later they
swerved across the valley and entered
the very thicket whore my mule was
concealed. I was in for it now. The
discovery of the mule would put them
on to mo , and the three hunters after
game would become three warriors
after my scalp. I instantly abandoned
all hope of saving any of the property
and started off up the gulch to make
my escape through the range.
It was a rough , dark place I had got
into. In no place \ as the rift over ten
foot wide , while it narrowed here and
there to four or five. Its sides were al
most perpendicular , and I had not gene
ever SOO feet before I came to an ond.
It was what is known as "a false canon , "
extending only a little way into the
mountain instead of cutting through it.
In the twilight which prevailed down
there I ran plump up against a mass of
rock in my path , and when I had burned
a match or two I fully realized the situa
tion. I was in a trap. It was not likely
that the Indians yet know of my loca
tion. They know ono or more white
men were in the valley , but could not
toll just whore. It was morning , you
remember , und before night cnino they
would know all about it. They would
creep and dodge and reconnoiter , and
before noon they would bo certain that
they had only ono man to deal with.
Any attempt to leave by way of the
valley would bo checkmated , and I could
not got out at the upper end with
out going ever the wild and rugged
mountains. I should , however , have re
turned to the mouth of the gulch to try
some other way , but while I was burn
ing a last match I heard a great clutter
on the rocky bed of the rift a few yards
off. Believing the Indians to bo coming ,
I looked swiftly around for some place
of concealment or advantage , and to my
right I saw u hole in the rocks. In three
lumps I was at the spot , and ton seconds
later I had crawled into the hole on
hands and knees. The minute I got my
nose inside I smelt bear. Indeed , the
odor was strong enough to stifle mo. I
know also that I hod entered a don or
cave of considerable extent , and I
hastily struck a match to look around
mo. It was a cave. While the entrance
was narrow , the chamber was at least
8x12 in size , and high enough for mo to
stand up in.
It required only a few seconds to take
in what I have told you , and the match
had just expired when I heard a snitl
and a "woof 1" at the entrance , and 1
not only smelt bear , but I hoard him.
He had his head in the hole , and ]
whirled my rifle about and fired righl
into his face. The roar ho uttoroi ]
shook the solid rock of the cavern , anil
ho drew back , tumbled around in the
gluch for two or three minutes , and then
made oil , whining with pain and growl
' ing with anger as ho went. When ]
'could hoar him ho moro I lighted tin-
other match und looked for hair on the
'rocks.- They were there in plenty , am

they were proofs that it was a cinna
mon bear whom I had turned out of
house and home. There were a couple
of loose rocks on the floor of the donand
the first move I inado was to roll them
up and block the entrance. While they
did not fill the aperture , they created
an obstruction which neither man nor
bear could remove while 1 was behind
them.
In about twenty minutes the bear re
turned , accompanied by his matOj and
for the next half hour they made lively
work for mo. They were fiercely de
termined to got at mo , and as I did not
wish to discharge my rifle again ,
for fear the report would bo
board by the Indians , I had to resist
them by jamming their heads with the
muz/lo. The brutes gave it up at last
as a bad job , but while the well ono
went away , the wounded ono lay down
exactly in front of the entrance and
ickcd his wounds and uttered low
; rowls. Ho had put himself on guard ,
md ho meant to stay by until ho had
lad revenge. I had hastily gathered
up a small quantity of provisions when
loft camp , and , though I had no water.
I should not suitor much for a couple of
lays. The only thing I could do was to
make myself as comfortable as possible
and wait for something to turn up. I
Hired very little about the bears , know-
up I could kill them off at any time ,
> ut the Indians were to bo seriously
considered. They would leave no stone
unturned to find my hiding place , and
once they found mo , situated as I then
vas , I was a dead man.
There was no change in the situation
until about sundown' , when the other
> car returned , and a second attempt
was made to get at mo. They were bo
determined that I had to ube my re
volver , firing four shots , and , while
loithor of them was killed , both were
driven to fury by the wounds. The ono
wont oft as before , while the other lay
down at the mouth of the don , and the
night passed without disturbance. I
slept pretty well for a man in a boar's
don , but awoke just as daylight was fil-
; oring down into the gulch. It waa a
lerco roar from the bear which uroiihod
rno. I thought that his mate had re-
iurncd and that another attempt was to
jo made on my defensesbut I was quick
ly sot right. The bear started down
the gulch , and inside a minute I heard
shots and shouts. Then the roars of a
iccoiid bear were hoard , and for five
minutes there was u terrible commotion
a hundred feet below me. I could see
dark shadows struggling together , and I
know the shouts came from Indians , but
I was not clear in the matter until the
day grow stronger and the fight was
over. Then I made out a heap of dead.
It was a good hour before I pulled
away the rocks and crawled out. I had
figured that the Indians had trailed mo
up the gulch and had been attacked by
the bears , and I was right. I simply
waited to bo sure that all were dead.
When I finally crept cautiously down to
the heap I found the two bears and
three Indians in a pile , and each and all
wore growing cold in death. The boars
had boon shot and stubbed again and
again , but the redskins were a feight to
see. The flesh had literally been
stripped off their bones , and ono of
them , whoso body I pulled out for the
purpose of examination , Bcoined to have
every bone crushed , while his neck was
also broken.
My mule had not been disturbed , nor
had they found my cache of furs. It
took the day to pack up , and get ready
for a long journey , and when night
camel headed for the fort. I got through
without even sighting a redskin , and I
had with mo , as every man at the fort
in 1S6" can testify , the four Indian
horses and two Indian rifles in addition
to my own own outfit.

San Frnncibco Chronicle : The valley
of the San Jacinto , which three years
ago was a vast plain , almost entirely
surrounded by mountains , whoso highest
peaks reached an altitude of 14,000 foot
above sea level , and which were inac
cessible except by private conveyance ,
has made vast dtridos since the year
1884. It was but littjo , known then by
the general public , and oven those who
were acquainted with it in those days
never dreamed of its capabilities , or
that it would ever bdco'mo what it is to
day , ono of the most enterprising and
go-ahead colonies of- southern Cali
fornia.
The town of San Jacinto lias about COO
inhabitants and moro are coming in
every day , and now buildings are going
up on every hand. They have a $12,000
schoolhouse , with an attendance of
about 200 pupils , There are three ho
tels , two of brick and ono of frame.
Land in San Jncinto und adjacent
thereto is selling all the way from $40
to $1,000 per ncro , according to location ;
town residence lots from $200 to $1,000
per lot ; business property from $30 to
$150 per foot.
The San Jacinto Land and Water
company have over 7,000 foot of mains
laid , and there are ever 100 flowing ar
tesian wells. The largest well 'dis
