It was n Inrgo audience that greeted John

afternoon , but It mint have scorned small to
him us ho vlowpil U from the platform. In
the Immense amphitheatre two or three
thousand people make a slim showing , when
there nro six or olffht thousand vncunt seats.
John Do Wtt Miller nppoarotl little changed ,
unil wns rcndll.v recognized by those who
wore so delighted by his lectures last season.
His Individuality Is stron 'ly marked In
physical form mid movement. There is u
sort of tiupplo clumsiness In the way ho
handles liU leas uiul arms which is in strik
ing contrast with cloicly Jointed thouK&ts
and his easy grnco of expression.
It had been announced that ho would
preach. Many who had been charmed by
his lectures were anxious to bo touched by
the famed inspiration of his pulpit utterances.
Such were disappointed. Ho put a text nt
the head of his discourse , but ho did not
preach. Ho lectured. His theme , too , was
n disappointment. It was the well worn ono
of temperance. Ucspitu thcso disappointing
features the Quaker City orator held his
audience deeply interested for an hour utid
twenty minutes. At times ho sent tlio laugh
around , at other times thorn were Involun
tary outbursts of regular week-day applause ,
and occasionally there were eyes that de
manded the use of the handkcrclilot.

rus for the singing of hymns , but the lowu ,
state band plaved aotno appropriate selec

"Tho Palms' , and "Tho Lost Chord. " This
band is winning Its wav into Chautauijun
favor very rapidly , despite the fact that
many expected Honors' oand , which has for

Arrival of the Cruiser Charleston nntl
tlio Chilian Tratixjiort.
SIN Iltr.oo , Cain. , July 4. The Chilian
transport Itntn and the United States cnilsei
Charleston arrived In port at V:3Q : this- morn
ing direct from Iqulquo. The ttata entered
the harbor and anchored In the channel ,
whllo the Charleston remained ouMldo the
head. The Itata was nt once boarded by the
revenue onlcials. The Itata and the Charles
ton came direct from Iqulquo , being out
twenly-thrco days
As soon as posslblo Ofllcor Churchill , in
chnrgo of the vessel , came ash ere and tele ,
graphed his report to the department at
Washington. Arrangements were Immedi
ately made to turn ttio vessel over to the
proper United States authorities
Tire ofilcors mid several passengers on the
Itata recite some intorestlni ; Incidents In re
gard to choir arrival at Iqulquo some wecka
ago and the Ituta's subsequent departure for
that port In convoy of the Charleston. They
say that when the Itata stood Into the
harbor at Iqulque her ofllcera did not
know the vessel had already been
to the United States and that a formal demand
had been made on the Insurgents for the sur
render of the vessel. They stilted that this
demand was accompanied by the following
message Irom the American llagshlp : "If
you refuse and don't glvo her up peaceably I
will scl/o every ono of your ships and blockade -
ado every port on your coast , "
The roplj of the insurgents was simply an
order for Captain Mauscn to deliver the
Itata , her cargo and effects Into the bantls of
the United Stat s authorities. The captain
of the Baltimore went aboard the Itata and
presented an order to Captain Mausun with
the words , "In the name of the United States
of America I coullscato this ship and her
cargo. "
"That's all right : that's all right , " replied
Captain Mauscn , "lam a Gorman subject ;
you can do nothing with mo ; take the ship. "
The commander of the Esmorclda , who hud
remained on board the Itata when the two
vessels parted company off Acapulco , could
not bo found. Ho had accomplished his mis
sion , and quietly dropping over the side of
the vessel ho , In company with several
brother ofllcers , was soon on the shore and
.safe from further pursuit.
On taking possession of the vessel the
United States ontcials and representatives of
the Chilians wont aboard mid took stock of
the cargo. Prepiratlons wore at once made
to return , and Lieutenant Commander Todd
and Ensign Churchill from the Charleston ,
took charge of the Itata. Tno Itata's ' engines
were found to bo in bad condition owing to
the terrible strain put upon them , and En
gineer Hollis of the Charleston was sent
aboard to superintend ttio neces
sary repairs. This consumed several
days , but finally the hour of departure
was sot for Saturday evening , .luno 13 , nt ( i
o'clock. At that hour the Charleston sig
nalled , "Go ahead. " The Itatn signalled In
return that she was not ready. Again and
again did the Charjestoo signal for her prize
to put out to sea , but it was evident that the
Chtlllans were averse to undoing the results
of their long and tedious voyage.
At 8:45 : p. m. the Charleston again
signalled. The reply came back that the
Itata had not received her supply of water.
This was in tunn signalled to the llagshlp
and at SI o'clock Admiral McCann signalled
to the Hata "put to sea nt once , water or no
water. " The Itata accordingly departed.
The return voyage was devoid of incident.
An Associated press reporter visited the
Charleston and from her oflicors learned that
the feeling on the part of the Chilian con
gressional party Is extremely bitter towards
the United States , to which they looked for
sympathy , if not for assistance , at the least
for non-intcrferonco. The Charleston also
brings news that the tnsurccnts have
now about twenty thousand men In the field ,
while the government forces are not quite as
numerous. Besides the insurgents have
taken possession of almost the entire country
north of Valparaiso. The insurgents were
recently attacked Dy Balmacoda's forces in
the town of Iqulque. They fought their way
Into the very street. They attacked the cus
tom house , where there were a great many
English goods and n number of Eng
lish and American residents had
talton refuge. The commander of the
British warship Warsplto appeared with
detachment of marines. Ho Informed both
sides that foreign property would ba pro
tected. If they did not stop fighting In the
streets ho would take a hand himself. Thov
retired to the country back of the city anil
continued the battle. The insurgents finally
came off victorious.
It Is reported that there Is an Insurgent
commander on the Itata now on his way to
Washington , but if such is the case ho has
kept bis Identity concealed.
'S GltUAT DESEltT.
Little New to Tell Hcgat-dlng the
Situation There.
Los Axoni.K.s , Gala. , July 5. There Is little
now to tell regarding the situation on the
desert. Theories arc plentiful , as are rumors ,
but the facts are scarce. All that can bj
said with certainty is that the watar is still
rising. The increase in the volume of the
water Is perhaps not so small as supposed ,
for it should bo romombsrod that the deeper
portion of the basin is tilled and the water haste
to spread over a much greater area of level
land. Thcro are four possible solutions of the
problem. The water either comes from the
Colorado river , from the gulf , from tlio sur
face or by a subterranean channel. At first
it was believed by most of the well Informed
people around hero that It came from the
river , whence the previous overflows have
como several times during the past thirty
years , but the steady increasing volume of
the water in the face of the fall in the river
bus caused a change of opinion , mid now , In
spite of all tbo reports to the contrary which
have boon sent from Yuma and other places ,
it is generally believed that the ( lood must
have its source in the gulf hl-h
tides , which might break down the Might
uarrler of sand which stands between it and
Its old bod. Should this theory bo correct it
is evident that wo nro on the eve of witnessIng -
Ing ono of the most Interesting gcoghraphlcal
chances which has taken place on this con
tinent. The increase In the area of the gulf
could itself bo small In Importance compared
with the great modification in the climate
which this Inland sea would cause. Not the
least remarkable feature of this phenomenal
occurrence Is the great dlDlcultv of obtaining
authentic Information. The water Is too
shallow to nnvlgato and too deep to ride or
drive through , wlillothe frightful boat makes
It an act of great dang'ir to venture away
from the water and shade.

Col. Corhln Succeeds In Silencing the
NuviiJoflJ
HoumooK , Arj | ! . , July ( nt-Colonel Corbln's
command has returned here , the movement
against Oralbo having be n .completely suc
cessful.
When the expedition started out fears were
entertained of serious trouble , not especially
from the Ornlbo affair , but from danger of nr
incidental conflict with the powerful Nnvnjc
tribe adjoining , who number 18,000. The
Molds nro descendants of the old cliff dwol-
crs and for ages have lived in seven small
towns built upon high cliffs near tha south
west corner of the Navajo reservation. Six
of thcso towns have always boon peaceful ,
but Oralbo , containing over night hundred
Inhabitants , has always boon unfriendly ,
owing to the work of fanatlo medicine men.
Loit winter they stubbornly refused to be
counted by the census enumerators until per
suaded by the presence of n troop of cavalry.
Since then their chief has become friendly
nntl advised his people to follow American
ways. This made trouble with the fanatic
section and they resorted to open hostility ,
threatening the surveying party with violence
lence and also threatening the destruction of
the government school and all Americans
connected with It. This school Is In Kearns
Canon , not far from villages. The Navnjos ,
who had long been in the habit of raiding the
Molds , were compelled some time ago
to withdraw from the vicinity of the
school. This incensed them and they
threatened not onlv the Molds but also
Americans. A short tlmo ago , at the request
of the Indian agent , Cantaln McClcrnand.
with a troop of the Second cavalry , arrostcil
a Navajo buck who had resisted the agent.
This had n salutary effect , but still throngs
of idle young bucks , nil well armed , contin
ued to gather , and It was feared that some
mishap might send them off on n wild foray
any day.
Last week Lieutenant Brett with a de
tachment of the Second cavalry wont up to
Oralbo village to learn the cause of the
trouble there. On entering the narrow street
they found Indians congregated on the flat
house tops , armed with rifles , and bows and
arrows. The war chief defiantly re
jected the offer of the party and
threatened to open fire on the cavalry If
thov didn't leave. Lieutenant Brett , finding
ho could do nothing , withdrew his troop and
reported. In lesponso General McCook or
dered the force of the Second and Tenth cav
alry to Holbrook , where Lieutenant Colonel
Corbln assumed command. Vigorous action
has been determined on and the command car
ries with It two three-inch Hotchkiss gtyis
with which to reduce houses occupied by the
Indians In case of light. Thcso houses are
strongly built of stone , mostly three stories
In height , with terraced fronts , and can only
bo entered by ladders leading to roofs. Thus
each house constitutes a fortress. The troops
made a sharp march from Holbrook and
rfachod the village shortly after davbronk.
Preparations had evidently boon made for
trouble , but on seeing a largo force of troops ,
the hostilcs surrendered nt onco.
Eight of the principals were arrested and
will bo taken to Fort WlngiUo. All refused
to talk except ono , who said they nro pre
pared to fight , but had no conception that
Americans could bring nlore than thirty or
forty soldiers against them. The presence
of nearly 100 ! troops struck them with con
sternation. Colonel Corbin assembled the
'villagers and after explaining the gravity of
their misdeeds and severely admonishing
them , hojtold them to resume their oidlnnry
occupations. Some of the Navnjos were per

\ Unique Discovery on Joe Jeffer
son's Summer Place.
BUZXAUD'S Bvv , Mass. , July C. Joseph
Jefferson , the actor , has made mi astonlsbin ?
find on tbo summer place which ho has pur
chased here near that of President Cleve
land. In laying out the ground and making
alterations it became necessary to remove a
sand hill of large sl/e. The workmen while
doing this found the skeleton of a man that
filled them with astonishment from its great
sl/o. When an attempt was made
to lift up the skeleton It crumbled away , all
except the skull. A workman laid down by
the side of it , however , and it was estimated
that it must have belonged to a man at least
six feet and five or six inches in height. The
most peculiar thing wns brought to light ,
however , when the skull was taken to Mr.
Jefferson and by him examined. It was like
ordinary skulls , only larger , except that It
had , so far as could bo seen , no place where
the eyes had been. There was ono hole in
the center of the forehead that might
have once served for ono eye. This
led Mr. Jefferson to believe that ho
had , perhaps , discovered the skeleton of a
cvclops. Mr. Booth , who was paying Mr.
Jefferson a visit , snld when ho saw the won
derful skull that ho and bis brother actor had
a chance at hand to play "Hnmlot" with n
skull such as it had never been played with
before. All the scientific gentlemen in the
neighborhood have been as unable- give an
explanation of the skull as were Mr. Jeffer
son and Mr. Booth. Mr. Jefferson will no
doubt bo glad to receive suggestions from
men of science that may throw light on the
matter.

PKVS COI.A , Flu , , July C. This morning
about 10 o'clock John O'Connor ' , editor of the
Dallv News , and B. C. Tunison , Unltod
States commissioner , mot In front of the
Merchants hotel. After a few minutes of
jarncst conversation Tunison was seen
to jump backwards and draw
his pistol. Ho then commenced
llrlng. O'Connor drew his pistol as qulcklv
and returned the lire. O'Connor's pistol ,
however , failed to revolve mid whiio ho was
fixing It Tunison continued to lire on him ,
emptying his pistol. O'Connor's pistol was
now working and Tunison could not face the
nmsio and flea into the hotel with O'Connor
in hot pursuit and llrlng. Tunison ran
up one flight of stairs mid locked
himself lu a bed room , where ho was found
by mi ofllcor , who subsequently arrested him.
After the smoke cleared away it was found
that Tunsion had a flesh wound In his leg.
O'Connor wns unhurt. The dinloulty was
caused by an editorial in the Neirs n few
days ago In which Tunslon wns spoken of in
anything but n complimentary manner b.v

The Secret of This Paper's Uarly De
livery In the So ithwst.
Few p-'oplo know of the expense Incurred
byTiu : HBK to enable It to reach Its sub
scribers at the earliest hour passible In tha
morning. Tin : BUB always takes advantage
of the first trains which leave the city In the
morning. Whore tbo trains do not leave os
early as could bo desired , Tin : Buu hires u
special.
For Instance , the B. As M. flyer from Chicago
cage to Denver reaches the southwestern
part of the state earlier than any ether train.
But It does not pass through Omaha. It
does not come within vl ! miles of this city.
Titc BBI : therefore meets that very important
train at Plaltsmouth. It does so with a
special train. This special leaves
Omaha nt it o'clock in the morning.
It Is loaded with BII'X. : There are thou
sands of them. Tlio train thunders down to
Platt.smouth , at which plai-o the pipers are
transferred to the B. & M. Flyer. Two min
utes later the Fiver Is rattling along nt a
speed of forty-live miles per hour. At every
station , the packages containing i'lir. BKK
are thrown off , landing at the station door.
It reaches Lincoln , the capital , 4-B'j n.m ;
Fairmont , 0:25 : a.m ; Hastings , 7.45 a.m. ;
Holdroge , 11:13 : a. in. ; McCoolr , lliMa.m ;
Akron , U:50 : p.m. , and Denver , 0:15 : p.m.
This special service of Tin : BBE costs inonov ,
but Tin : BIT. mmces uo note of that. It pub
lishes nil the news mid guarantees to deliver
it in ttio snmo liberal mid elHclcnt manner.
If you want to read all the news mid read it
