He is an army officer and w.h not criticise, trie action of any ivei nne nt otflcl.il, but sometimes adions speak louder than words, (jcn iiacon's case tills is certainly true. Commissioner Jones spent a week and a day in Walker; it was a long and harl -Period HuJ Lui: commissioner, init it was longer and narder fur the general.

The latter thought only of the i ot njH com. niand and was more than xious that their murderers should pay the pinahv which they so richly deserved. He was a. "ting un-der instructions from the war department, howeicr, and must' await the outcome of tne commissioner's negotiai ions. The nearer they approached success-from the commissioners standpoint the more did den.

Bacon walk the floor of his room in the Paineda. house. To ait idly hy while the Indians who wore in the battle were allowed to go free on the understanding that others ol tUtlr number were to surrender and stand trial on the charge of resisting an officer, was more than an old Indian fighter of the calibre of den. Bacon could stand, and It is believed tnat some very warm messages went from him to the war department. All the time, however, he was preparing for further war, and if Commissioner Jones had not reached a settlement the hostile Indians of the Leech Lake reservation would have awaKened to the Tact that they were completely surrounded by federal troons to strike a blow at which would mean the annihilation of every nad Pillager in Northern M.nnesota.

That den. Bacon was anxious for anotner tight tiier- i no doubt. He never said so In as many words, but those who lived with him and saw him several times a day as I did. know full well that nothing- would have pleased him better than another opportunity ot getting at the Rerimen. He spoke of Coinmiss.oner Jones, always in the kindliest terms.

He. believed him sincere In his i secure peace, but he did not believe in bowing low to the Indians and coaxing th-tn th "glng bra. To show Just how the fe-ii-iai felt a story might be told of a little incident at the ag-ney a few dayt ago. An Indian had come from Sugar Point an had api-it'-d to Dr. Hart for assistance for several IndP.n families during the wi'ifi; Indians who should have bet-n able to pr-jvide tor tneui-seives.

den. Bacon wad Dr. Hart office at the time and two or tiiree of -he were talking with him. The doctor turned the Indian away, and turning to the general told him of the request that had been made and htm what he thought of It. "What do I think of If" answered the general, thoroughly aroused, "what do I think of 1.

Why, I'd ircm In 1 first; what they want. Is lead." d.n. Bacon may to the publication of this, for he asked us at the time to overlook it. but I can think of no belter way to show the public judC what his feelings are than by repeating. It.

And it is littie wonder that the general i expressed himself. Just a'rew moments before a party of us had accompanied the general down the main street of the agency. We were paying liLtle attention to the Indians who sat on the ground and lu frcnt of the houses sunning themselves, but two of them sitting alone on a little knoll to our light had tan-iUnr face-. I was sure I had seen them the morning we landed at Sugar Point. They were erinning at us now as they had grinned at us then, and as they continued to grin when they left Bug-o-nay-ke-slilg house and went Into the woods from which the shots were fired when the attack was made by the Indian.

I hunted up John Bassett. ns honest an old Indian as ever lived, -and one who speaks the F.ngHsh language, and asked him if these two young bucks had not beep engaged in the battle. He told me that they had. and that they boasted of it. And here they were as free as I was.

guilty of murder and grinning at the officer whose life above all olheis they would have liked to tike. Is it any wonder then that den. Bacon should occasionally loose control ot himself and talk straight from the shoulder? den. Bacon is the hardest man on to Interview. He dislikes very much to talk for publication, but as I spent the whole of yesterday with him on the train from Walker.

I succeeded late in the day in getting him to make a statement, which 1 will give In his own words: "Mr, Jones I believe to be an excellent man," said he in answer to a question, "and I believe him to be sincere In his every action. I should have liked, however, to have seen a little more ginger and snap thrown into his negotiations. "So far as the Indians are concerned, they were thoroughly whipped. For two years they had lieen pn paring for a contest; accumulating ammunition. dancing and going through a series of mimic wars and drilling.

They were aware of the fact that they are as tine shots as ever existed, r.nd that they knew their country thoroughly, but they did not take Into consideration what the soldiers would do when the light commenced. Before the battle they were anxiously awaiting chance for a conflict with the soldiers, but now they are acquainted with them; they are humiliated and want only peace. Had we gone after them the second time they would have surrendered; of this I have no doubt, and we would now have us prisoners many of those who wete in the light. "The Indians did not believe at the outset that any but a very small body of soldiers could reach them. They now know lhat the soldiers can go wherever Indians can go.

and they realrze. too, the advantages the soldiers would have in a winter campaign, which would mean annihilation of themselves and great suffering to their families. The talk aiioill these Indians wanting to be 1 most utter nonsense. 1 never knew any people who seemed to pUce more value, ami lives. in lighting they did not expose themselves In any manner.

"I think te result oft his campaign will have a good effect for'nmny years. The Indians are now much? twite peaceable and considerate of the whiten they were when we went to Walker. If Old Bug IS not dead, us Is believed by Marshal O'Connor, his own people wfll' itring him lu. lu this connection 1 mlglll' say that believe that some of these llvti men who are still at large were either kllhsj wounded In the battle, That tilery were somo killed I now have no doubt. Lieut.

Vincent, in charge of the regulars1 lit the dam, reports that one of the hostile Tfidians reported to a chief at Wlnnebagoshlsh, that eight red men had been killed, and as tho same story has come to me from several different sources. 1 believe It to be correct." Asked about the men who were In the fight with him, den. Bacon said: "The only men on the fighting Hue who did any lighting Were the soldiers. Of the 77 soldiers present 68 were raw recruits. They had never heard a hostile gun fired, and they naturally became confused when the lirsl.

volley was poured into them from the weeds. But they rallied and deployed promptly under the Indian Hre. distant about 200 yards from tha Indians, and drove them back through the woods and underbrush. After deploying the men behaved splendidly, and obeyed every order with promptness and coolness. They were kept In tho firing line from 10:30 until after dark, charging and driving back the Indians whenever they appeared.

Only 19 of the soldiers were" old and tried veterans, and four of these were among the killed.

direcior of the Homes fur the Poor at Tokio, has just published an extremely Interesting article in a Tokio magazine, the Shakal 'Casshl, on the life and habits of the thieves and beggars of the Japanese capital. There are, It woull appear, two classes of children who became professional beggars, those small unfortunates woo have run a way from home In order to escape barlnarous treatment from inhuman patents, and children abandoned by their parents, whose nomadic instincts Induce them to get rid of their too numerous offspring and thus avoid ihe trouble of dragging them round from one village to another. These latter confide, their children to old professional beggars who soon tench the young outcast to earn his own livelihood. Sme of these chiefs of the mendicant profession enjoy a wide reputation and have scores of beggars and thieves in embryo under their tutelage. There even exists In Tokio a well known house, Kodomo No Souryoya, which Is a regular agency for the letting out of children.

Beggars of 10 or at) years of age (nearly always thieves hors de combat and crippled in some way or other) call upon this firm every day and hire a child of four or five years old. In whose company they prey upon the charily of the public. The price per day for a child Is from 3 to 10 sen. (l'j to 5 cents) and as the object of the child is to inspire pity, weak and ailing children fetch the highest prices. From five years upward the children do their begging by themselves.

At the age of 14 or IS, under the pretext of gathering waste paper and other rubbish, they prowl round the courtyards of the houses and commence to thieve. Conf nxing.
