SPANISH COLONEL'S TROUSERS MOST BRILLIANT TIIIXGS EVER SUES OX THE PLAIXS OF KANSAS. SInny Foreign Attaches to Wntch the War Came Scope of the First Day's Operation. FORT RILEY, Kan.. Oct. lS.-Thc largest military camp ever formed la this country In time of peace Is now located hero on the government reservation. About 12.000 men are hero and by to-morrow morning It is expected the total will be increased to 13,000. The general scope of tho maneuvers, which will t begun In full strength tomorrow and continue for a fortnight, is the most comprehensive that has yet been arranged, and practically every situation a soldier can bo called on to face in time of war, save the two so eminently disagreeable, danger cf death and lack of rations, is comprised in the programme. It is safe to say that from a sanitary point of view no better camp was ever designed. Every possible arrangement has been made by Major C. B. Baker, chief quartermaster, who has laid miles of water pipe, built bath houses and provided seemingly for everything. The regiments now la camp and to be here by to-morrow morning are: Missouri Provisional Regiment, Colonel C. A. Sinclair; Texas Provisional Regiment. Colonel Henry Hotchtns; Second Nebraska, Colonel J. W. O'Donn?!!; First Kansas. Colonel S. Metcalf; Second Kansas, Colonel P. W. Holsington; Fifty-fifth Iowa, Colonel J. R. Lincoln; Battery A, Kansas Artillery, Coptain Downing: Battery B, Kansas Artillery, Captain Pattison. All of these regiments with the exception of the Fifty-fifth Iowa and a few companies of the Second Nebraska arrived beforo nightfall. The regular troops comprise the Sixth. Second, Twelfth and Twenty-flrst Infantry regiments, tight squadrons each of the Fourth, Eighth and Tenth Cavalry regiments, battalion of engineers under Major Leach, and the following batteries of light artillery: Sixth. Seventh. Nineteenth, Twentieth. Twenty-fifth, Twenty-eighth and Twentyninth. The force Is divided Into four brigades of infantry, commanded respectively by Brigadier Generals Grant, Bell and Barry, of the regular army, and Hughes, of the Kausas National Guard. It Is expected that there will be a greater number of foreign military attaches In attendance at the present series of maneuvers than on any previous similar occasion. Colonel Raspopoff, of the Russian army, and Colonel Foster and Colonel Birbeck, of the British army, have been at Fort Riley for two days. Lieutenant Colonel Mone Verde, of tho Spanish army, arrived to-day, in a uniform that put to shame anything that ever was shown on the plains of Kansas, with the possible exception of the midsummer sun. Ills cap and blouse were dark blue, covered with gold lace, and his riding trousers of expansive pattern were of a vivid soarlet. Tho colonel, who is a courtly gentleman and a soldier of excellent record, was received with every attention by General Bates and his officers. To-morrow Governor Bailey, of Kansas, is expected to visit the camp, and later in the week Gen. Ian Hamilton, of the British army, is to arrive. k The work for to-morrow will be an attack on a rear guard. This is to be commanded by Colonel Duncan, of the Sixth Infantry, which is to march out early In the morning and at 12:30 is to start back to the camp. As he starts General Barry, with the remainder of the troops, will be after him, and Colonel Duncan must get into camp the best way he can, and Inasmuch as he commands as good an Infantry regiment as ever marched, and has the reputation of being a capable and energetic commander, the prospects are bright for "something doing. The roads have dried out again, and the weather cannot be surpassed, although the nights are somewhat cool. ATTEMPTED MURDER. Brooklyn Voman Shot Twice by a Daughter of Italy. NEW YORK. Oct. 18.-The police reserves of Brooklyn were to-night searching the swamps and fields around Bath Beach for Antoinette Dellamotta, a young Italian woman, who fired two shots at Mrs. Elizabeth Marvin, both of which took effect.

CHILD LABOR AND PAUPERISM Cause of Deterioration of the IndU vldual and of Society. Jane Addams, in Charities. What connection do we find between child labor and pauperism? In almost every case, the men who first lose their places and are most quickly, thrown out in an industrial crisis, who are the last to be taken on in times of industrial prosperity, men who are Inefficient and not very strong, men who do not stand well in the trades and whom the foreman is glad to get rid of in any way; are those who have never had sufficient training. -and who curiously lack strength and vigor. How far is child labor responsible for this class of paupers? We have a municipal lodging-house in Chicago largely filled with tramps. It is surprising to find how many of them are tired to death of monotonous labor and begin" to tramp in order to get away from It, as a business man goes to the woods because he is worn out with the stress of business life. This inordinate desire to get away from work seems to be connected with the fact that the men have started to work very early, before they had the physique to stand up to It. or the mental vigor with which to overcome its difficulties, or the moral stamina which makes a man stick to his work whether he likes It or not. There is no doubt that child labor also tends to pauperize the parents. We have in Chicago a great many European Immigrants, people who have come from country life in the south of Italy or Bohemia, hoping that their children will have a better chance here than at home. In the old country these immigrants worked on farms which gave a very normal activity for a young boy or girl. When they come to Chiego they see no reson why their children should not go to work becuse they see no difference between the normal activity of their own youth and the grinding life to which they subject their children. It is difficult for a man who has grown up in outdoor life to adapt himself to the factors. So the parents drop out, and the children making the adaptation, remain, and you get the curious result of the head of the household being more or less dependent upon the earnings of the child. The pauperism of society Itself, however. Is the most serious charge: What happens when an industry depends upon the labor of boys and girls? It takes those boys and girls at the time when they ought to be at school, when. If they were the children of business men they would be having their most expensive education. The manufacturer gives them no real instruction and teaches them nothing beyond the habits of promptness and obedience. In almost all factories the work at which the children are employed tends to no trade. By the time they are old enough to receive adult wages they are often sick of the whole business. The gravest charge I have to bring against child labor is that it pauperizes the consumers, all of thoe who use the product Into which this labor has entered. If I wear a garment which has been made In a sweatshop or a garment for which the maker has not been paid a living wage, or a wage so small that his earnings had to be supplemented by the earnings of his wife and children, then I am in debt to the man who made my ck-ak. I am a pauper if I permit myself to accept qharlty from the poorest people In the c-omyiunlty. PHAISB FOR C i:nilAL CROOK. He Is Remembered for Many Peculiarities W'as Well Liked. A. W. Duun, In Washington Post. There are some army officers left who served with Maj. Gen. George Crook, and they never tire of singing his praises. He was not only great as an Indian fighter; he was an Indian manager. This was because he knew the Indian better than the Indian knew himself. He knew the Indian nature, the Indian feeling, and h reasoned as en Indian when he solved problems relating to the red men. To this Indian knowledge be applied the superior intelligence of the white man. Rudyard Kipling, in that delightful story. "Captains Courageous." describes a similar attitude of mind when he tells about Dlsko Troop, the most successful fisherman on the Grnnd Ranks, reasoning from the point of the codrtsh when he
was seeking the best fishing ground and thus followed them to their favorite feeding grounds. -Old Two Stars," the Indians called Crook, because of the two stars on his shoulders indicating his rank. But that was not a very general title. The "Gray Fox" was what he really was to the Indians and this was a sincere tribute to his shrewdness and cunning, for no animal of the West was superior to the gray fox in intelligence. General Crook never learned any Indian language thoroughly, but was familiar with the sign language, which enabled hlra to understand any Indian, no matter where he belonged. At all councils where he conversed with Indians he employed an expert interpreter, so that there should be no misunderstanding as to what he might say to the Indians or what they said to him. But his leading characteristic and that which made him successful and powerful amoir the Indians, was that he never lied to them. No Indian ever knew him or knew of him but had high veneration for the "Gray Fox," for what he promised he performed. He never made pledges for the government that he knew would not be fulfilled. A promise from "Gray Fox." whether it was for the protection of the government, a supply of food, or a sound thrashing, was always made good. A peculiar trait of General Crook was that he had no hesitancy in going into a hostile country without a guard, and he often made long Journeys from one post to another without escort. With an orderly and a servant he would strike oat acmes the country occupied by bostlles and remain away for several days. He knew the Indian nature so well and was so familiar with woodcraft and the plains that he never feared molestation and was never even attacked. On such excursions ha added to the store of his knowledge concerning the foe he was pursuing. In one of his campaigns he established a series of posts on either side of the region where the hostile Indians were located. Ha would send oat detachments with instructions to cross the hostile country and strik the Indians so as to do them the most harm. The detachments would consist or a troop or half a troop of cavalry, according to the nature of the work in hand. Each would be accompanied by ten or fifteen Indian scouts. When an Indian trail was found It was followed; the scouts wonld locate the camp and give the Information as to bow it might be approached and the time It would take to reach It. Perhaps the band had been struck and routed by a different detachment the morning before and had moved camp, as wan their custom, even when able to make some resistance. Early In the morning the troops would strike, taking the Indiana by surprise, for they never posted pickets. They depended for their safety upon putting; distance between themselves and their pursuers and not upon keeping: their camp guarded by watchers. Th soldiers upon making an attack would make It short and sharp, carrying great destruction during the encounter. If it was found that the Indians were a strong force the soldiers would get away wben the red men began to recover from the first shock of surprise. The Indians, fearlnr their return with an Increased force, would break camp and move, perhaps to be attacked In the same way by another detachment the next morning. This sort of warfare was very disheartening to the Indians. The daylight attacks, when they were utterly unprepared, was a great shock. Many would be killed or wounded before they could strike a blow In defense. Their resistance was weak because they never seemed to be ready. If they fled their entire camp was burned. If the band was largely superior in numbers the troops would ride through the camp, spreading death and terror, and then disappear, oftentimes not leaving a single scalp to offset the dead and wounded among; the warriors. After this had been kept up for some time the Indians concluded that It was useless to remain on the warpath against tho "Gray Fox." and they nil came in to General Crook's headquarters, sending peace messages before them. They were not disturbed, but they received no word .from Crook. He remained in his tent or took lonp rides without showing any interest In them whatever. They sent word that they wanted to hold a council, but he made them no answer. Finally, after some weeks had elapsed, he granted them the "big talk" they wanted. For three days he listened ta first one and then another. Each chief and Indian of any importance had his say. They all had the same general end In view. They wanted no more war; they wanted to grate their ponies and cattle and cultivate the soil end live at pesce with the white man. At the end Crook spoke a few words harshly: "You say you want to do all these things; why don't you go and do them?" and he left the council. The Indians wero troubled, more awed and humbled than ever before. But they finally a'jied on his suggestion and have never since given any trouble. On another occasion, when he waa charged with subduing the Cheyennes, who were on tho warpath, the situation was complicated by the probabilities that the hostlfes would be Joined by the Sioux. This would have meant serious trouble and doubled the work of the army. General Crook selected young officer in whom he had confidence and gave him a message to take to Spotted Tall. "Tell him I sent you. and be sure and deliver It Just as I tell you." said the general. "Suppose he asks questions about It?" inquired the officer. "Don't tell him anything more: repeat tht message and Impress it upon him. That is all." Another message was sent to Red Cloud, another Sioux chief, with precisely the same instructions. The officer who was recalling the circumstances would not tell what the messages were, but they were of such a character as to set the chiefs wonderlng what the "Gray Fox" mesnt. and thev had the precise effect that Crook Intended. Spotted Tall and 'Red Cloud prevented the Sioux from joining the Cheyennes. and Crock soon whipped the latter into submission.
