A Former A^el^hi S ar.
Millie Rose, one oft he company recently perflvminu at the Adelphi, is now engaged iti walking GOO utiles in 5!)0 eonsetcutifs hours,at an Indianapolis b?er garden. In tho last issue o. the Indianapolis Siturday Herald there appeared a very severe criticism ou t:er action, to which that lady seema to have taken exceptions. Tho following, from the Indianapolis Journal of this morning, tePs how the outraged female vindicated her character:
Through the veins of Mllle. Rose there courses the blue bioo-i of aii ancient Euglith family, and, though she is uuder a cloud just now, aud does wear gaozv and aoorevi ited attire and walks iu the city beer garden for money, she feels hat she has a character io sustain. Whether the character i* good, bad or indiff'ereut-, is b^st known to herself, but however th it may be, it is certain tnat sh« took exceptions an article published iu the Herald lasr Saturday, and yesterday she came around to see the editor about it. to have a retraction or blood. Mr. Jacob Crome, the wheezy proprietor of me City Garden, and the pigmy husoand of tho irate Amazon accompanied ter to see fair play. Tbe beau'.i ul tiio br ke into the Herald office at about a jartcr to 10 o'clock, and proceeded to meke it lively for the inmates. Millie. Ro.^ dispensed with the formula of an introduction. and producing a formidable cow-hide whicti was couceale uud her water-proof, she bared boi brawny arms aud began business at one-. Mr Harding, the reverend ditor, was unprepared for an assault this description, but wer.t ior his revolver, which was locked up in the drawer of his desk, wi"h tin* iiueu-ion of Oiling the woman's male proiecfois with bullets. The drawer would not open, and atier a few futilv t-u^s at the handle, he grabbeb au umbarella, and warding off the blows succeeded tu shovi.ig thn lufurt* ate funambulist out on the sidewalk, despite her protest that she was a lady. Harding was convinced that she was a lady by her conversation aud •general appearance, but ho objected to too much f.-tmitiarir-y lrom a sirauge woman. After throwing the wom out, th« i»ijisfiiiar di.or mcurcil his cane and proceeded to f!ag«HaLa Croue, but Crone concludnd be wtii not wanted io the sanctum, and ale a break for the door. He sto:d not on the order of his i^oing, but went at once. The party returned to the attack, aid as the b.»ntm husband bonnced into tbe door ho wavt-d hsa bands frantically about his h**Hd, pro claimed his identity, aud r-marked that he was there to protect his wife frotn the insults ot Ink slinger?-. As the editorial cano went up, and Harding cauio toward him. he found tbe hoie tho carpenters lelt, and shot out into the street wii a eelerity that Would have done credi' toau acrobat.
In the~ excitement, Mr. Bannister, the peaceful partner, who is too small to do much fighting, ran into tbe com-posing-room ar. ti»H rear of the office, ind implored the assistance of the ty. pos. Though protesting that he was not a fi ah ting tnaii, on" of the men expressed a uillingn ss to take a hand, and making a run and a jump ho collared the fi st man he came across, and summarily ejected blm, without giving tho poor fellow a chance to explain that he did nt train in the Crone mob, and merely fiuppened in. Such a little episode as tt:!-) only served to fan the fi ime and the excitement ran high for a time. The brazen trio who had been repulsed stood ou the outside for a minute or two bomuarding the office with malediction", but as a crowd began to gather, they s'ntik away.
One weit over hi* ch«ek is the only mark Mr. Harding carries of the affray and that mark will not he visible long.
In the afternoon. Scu ly. thespangied loafer who has been walking in Crone's beer garden for the past month or two was charging about the streets mak ing loud-mouth'.d»declaations that he would "lick or kili" George Harding, but as no reucoutre wi.s reported it is presumed that the bla'mit bully did not make a vigorous effort to find his prey.

Several daj's since the GAZETTE contained the following news item picked up among a body of men in relation to Mr. G. H, Tuiel:
Thiol, one of tho detectives belonging to he firm of Lonergan «fc Tbicl, who la^t suirm«r was so much talked about as the chief detective in thes Long Po-nt business, has just got out of the penitentiary. Jf9 was iu'there serving out a sentence for couv-tarfeiting. Oh the principle that is ikes a thief 'o catch a thief, the diamond cut diamond idea—Tniel ought to tr»sko an excellent detec-ive.
Finding that this was untrue, the Gazktte a day or two since made the retr-iction, such as Mr. T. had a right to d.mand, and such as no honorable newspaper, finding itself incorrect, could hesitate in giving. Tho following letter was received this morning:
St. Locis. Mo., Dec, 11th, 1875.
Messrs W. C. Bill & Co.: GNNTLEMEJR:—Mr. G. W. Thiol, of the tirm of Lonergon fc Thiel, ilied upon me to-day, and he requested mo to enter suiL against yon in the Federal Court of Indiana, for libel iu the publiuitian of an artk-la in your paper of tue tKh inst., a copy of wnich I enclose. I slated to Mr. Th'el that you had doubtless been imposed upon, and had made the publication wit! ou* malice, and that upon being informed of your error you would fully rectify the offensive articla, which seemed to satisfy him, aud I promised him to write you, asking you to publish a full and ample retraction. I was immediately associated with Mr. Thiel while he neld the position of Legal Agent ot the r., W\ & W. Railroad, aud I know, your statemernts as to his having baen in the penitentiary to be untrue, and Your insinuation that he is a thief i3 false and totally incapablo of proof. I kotnv Mr.T
j.i
to be a man of the
hig .est integrity, and his character for houesty i* absolutely without spot or bl-Muisb. Messrs. VV. II McK -en, R. W. Thompson, Jos. Coll»tt and Ge E. Fiirringcon, of your city, am wt li usq-iainfd with Mr. Thief, and wiii tell yon that your publication in reg.«rd to him is untrue.
Hoping th*t you wili correct the error into wbicb you have doubtless unintentionally fallen, and, so far as possible, repair tbu injury you have dure an honorable man, I
Very respectfully, yours, G- B. BJITSJITT.
Tho tT.tz&l'TB*8 acquaintance w'th Mr. Tbi .l has always been very slight. During .6 stirring days when he was fern ting ouf- perpetrators of the Long Point murder, his nam was often in thesft columns. Still no member of the Gazktte force ever h«d personal acquaintance with him. Tho naturalness of tuH error into which we have fallen may therefore, be readily seen.

Spotted Tail'sIdea cl* Heaven. "I want you to tel) me-somewhat of your religious belief," said a correspondent, talking with Spotted tail.
Spotted Tail, after quite a pause, proceeded, in answer to the.questiou put by the correspondent and -Major Howard, to talk very gravely, the following being substantially what he said
Most Indians believe in the Great Spirit, iu a heaven, and in a bell but some are unbelievers and think that when they die they are no more, just like the deer and the horse. Tnere are but two worlds, the :, one iu which we live and that one where the Great Spirit dwell*. The spirit world is more than ten thomaud times larger than this its hnntiiig-fieldH have no end, «ud the game ^3 fuex'iau-tiible,: It* flowers are more beautiful than auy we hava ever known, and its maidens are as lovely as tho color of the clouds before setting sun, aud never g-ow old, The laud does not have to be'Culiivated there, but every kind of »od fruit, and in the greatest abuudanot?, hang upon the trees aud viries, continuously ^waiting.
Correspondent. But tell we Ypu*nuw that when you .iie—whenyour jfcople die—they rot like. the ji6r$e anil dog, and their, bodies go.intt? the air and water. How is it ,th^t, ypu are to git into the\spiiit-land. and dot very thing there as individuals," very much after the same maunei* a5fyou do here?
Spotted Tail. We. go tiiere as fl^irits, and fhero^gefc new 'bodies, -wnich the white man cannot kill.
X'orrespandent Have you not lie rd, through yotir Comtnissiofie-rs, a^out Jesus Christ, the eon of the a S 8patte«l-Tail.,Yep, I haveheardaU about liim 'how goo«i he vjas ar.c| .what, great tilings he did, .how .Vho. would help the bad man to be. good and he would lead all who wrtiiid F.& ten to him to the Great Spjrft, his tither and I have heard also iiow the white mau to be plucke]. Nothing ever dies there, and the Wauts of ail who ,go there are constantly and. fore-ver supplied without the necessity of auy work. Ail good men, whether*. they are white or red, go to heaven, but a great difference will exist between the conditions of the races of men arfti individuals there and. what they are here. Everything nearly will be reversed. .The wealthy here will be poor there the powerful and great o^re will be.htimble there. The Indians, who have been overflow erd b- the intelligence and skill the white man litre, wdi have a better ohanCH there. Everything which ha* beeo t^ikpn from th.-m h-re will be given back to thtm.there, even to sfeiScM

Here, the Great Spirit has been on the white man's side and then, "said the chief, his eyes flashing the meantime a fearful realization of the present condition of the people, "we'll light it ou, and we wili not be driven from our hunting grounds like the snejikinur, savage wolf.

The Indian never would have done that, he never would have murdered the son of the Great Spir-. it. He would rather have loved him better than his own life would have given him anything and all he had, and for him would have gone upon the war path and conquered the world. It was for a long, time after I first heard .about Jesus Christ that I did nor, understand how the white •nan could have.k 11 ledhim but when I got better acquainted with the whites, when I realized the fact that they had no respect for the rights of the Indian, would take away his home where he was born, murder him and his children, despoil his woman and rob him of his winter's food, I then vety readily understoodhow they cptiW «yen. kill thft .souj 'or.tlie., Great Spirit bs they did.--Correspondeot Do ^«tS»«I'ndad9 uftien pray ^TSSSeaiih^5^^r 1: ^potted T&ilr^Y« .«».:'.pcca« nimis, whether greatj.r email. :r -s: -CojreBprindfettir— Dotes ttt'e Gr^at Spirit answer tbjeirpirakyeri??
