The Wheeler Survey.

On Sunday evening. Lieutenant G. M. Wheeler, U. s. A.. in charge of the Wheeler surveying parties in Arizona, New Mexico and Utah, together with Mir. George M. Lockwood, an assist ant, arrived in Denver from Santa Fe. These gentlemen came out from Camp Apache, where one of the parties is now busily engaged in surveys and explorations. There are now ten par ties in the field, the greater portion of whom will continue their work up to December. Since they have been out, the parties have accomplished great deal of work, and the results of the survey will be looked for with great deal of anxiety. Lieut.. Wheeler and Mir. Lockwood are now en route to Washington to begin the office work, and the whole winter season will be spent compiling and arranging the various reports. Before going east Lieut.. Wheeler will visit Salt Lake City, San Francisco and intermediate points, examining astronomical sta ticns.- Denver News, Sept. 3.

THE Apaches killed Capt. J. B. Townsend hear Dripping Springs, eastward of Prescott, between the I6th and 2Oth of September. He left home alone on the 18th and his body was found on the 2Oth, after three days search by friends. For months a band of Indians was known to have been in that vicinity, and had, uot long before, made an attack but Townsend had, according to T h e Miner, killed thirty-six Indians in various fights and got away unharm- ed therefore he had ceased to be pru- dent and rashly encountered danger and thereby lost his life. Many even think lie was hunting Apaches when killed. Be this as 1t may, he was killed as stated aud his death is one of general regret i'll and around Prescott and by all who knew him. No well-posted man thinks this kill ing indicates an Indian outbreak, and there Is abundant evidence that the Apaches are being gradually re- duced to better subjection.
