Geronlmo remains irreconcilable He hates the white man and his chief desire In life Is to escape and wield the tomahawk again. Geronlmo Is now probably 80 years old, though he does not know hie age. He was with Victoria when that chieftain went against the Mexicans, and later he developed into a leader him self. He is s horn lender of redskins, for the reason that he claims to be not only a fighting man but also a medicine man. and it takes a man who can talk with nnseen beings to make a really deep Impression upon the Indian. Geronlmo made hie first raid in 1884, when he marched agalpst the town of Pima, Arii., and with a few warriors succeeded In wiping out the whole population of 500 souls. This was followed hy other atrocities until he was captured In 1887, having cost the United States government nearly 11,000,000 In giving chase to him. He and his band of 200 fighters were taken to Fort Pickens, Fla., but owing to the hot climate they could not live there and were transferred some five years ago to Fort Sill, where they have since remained, with the exception of a trip to Omaha three years ago.

Fortunately It Is too late tor any misapprehension as to the authors identity. That was settled long ggo by external and Internal evidence. As to internal evidence alone the book Is the boldest apotheosis of snobbery, aristocracy and the money power and the nastiest sneer at the common people so far written in this country. It had but one purpose says the New York Journal, that' was to show the essential vileness of every person not a millionaire and the divine sublimity of the men that make great sums of money. According to the teachings pf this book the man that labors with his hands is an ignoble creature and the man that has no occupation hut to pursue the refined and elevating amusements of society Is the only respectable person In the community.

Twenty-liv- e years ago the United States was in the middle of a fire years' period of serious Industrial and commercial stagnation, beginning with the convulsion of 1873.
