\ DANGEROUS PRACTICE.- have
several times had occasion to call atten-
ton to the reprehensble practice of dis
charging. firearms in the immediate
II ighborhood and in the direction of
dwellings and other buildings. Some
thing more than year ago, an act Of
this character, caused the sudden and
lamentable death of as noble and prom
Using boy as could be met with. Later
still, an accident of a similar character
came within an ace of occurring. Further
on Sunday last, three bullets passed
through the roof of Mr. NOrvallS house
while he and some friends were sitting in
one Of the rooms. We therefore earnestly
request our citizens, one and oil, if they
have any regard for the safety and lives
of their fellow members of the commu-
nifty to rigidy eschew a habit which is
useless, mischievous and dangerous in
the highest degree. When any one de-
sires to practice pistol shooting. or to
discharge loaded weapons, let them take
the trouble to go to some point where
such operations will be harmless to 9TH
ers.
FRoM The MUDDY.-Indian Agent H:
A. Barnes has been to the Muddy Res
ervation to examine and report upon the
condition of the Indians. He left on
Monday stage via Hamilton. During
his stay at the reservation Mr.. Barnes
did his best to straighten up matters that
had been going at loose ends for long
while. He has purchased a considerable
amount of supplies in town for the use
of the Indians, paid the latter their an
nuities and seems to show an earnest de-
sire to deal fairly with all concerned
We are glad to note this, for the Indians
in this section have been badly neglected,
which to some extent may account for
their excuses.
