Bonner, of the New York Ledger, is
responsible for much of the prevailing
distress. For years young people have
been reading his delusive romances and
his advice to marry young, and now there
are thousands of people with large families

York Ledyers.-CGcianati Enquirer.

The committee report -"They fed a
COW corn meal and unground oats, three
quarts each, mixed Immediately after

The position of each stomach was found
to be as lows;-The gullet or esopha-
gus empties into the first stomach or ru-
men near its connection with the second
stomach or reticulum, and food might pass
readily into either of them. The second
stomach connects with the manyplies or

might allow food tclgass into the fourth

therefore doubt if mixing meal with coarse

and objected to by other members Of the

We had the pleasure last evening,
ofan interview Mt the Grand Central
with Capt. Edwin Pollock, U. S. A.,
who with a company Of the Ninth
Infantry, IA engaged. under orders
from the general commanding the
department of the Platte, from July
to November of last year in expelling
miners from the Black Hills. AS
Capt. Pollock was in the Hills all
that time, we called upon him at the
hotel last evening to obtain such in
formation as he was willing to com
municate concerning a section of this
country that is now attracting more
attention throughout the states than
any piece of land of the same dimen-
sions between the two oceans.
I Capt. Pollock says the best route Is
unquestionably from Cheyenne to
Fort Laramie, THENCE oyer the road of
Running Water, Sage and Horse
head creeks, entering the hills through
Red Creek canon. The distance from
Fort Laramie to Gustav City on
French Creek, is one hundred and
fifty miles, and was accomplished in
eight marches, or eight days. There
was wood at every camp except the
one on Running Water. Capt. Pol
lock says that the shortest route from
the Union Pacific railroad to the
Hills is by wayhof Sidney. but the
river is wide and ferriage uncertain
and difficult, especially in the spring.
The Fort Laramie route gives miners
the7advantage of a substantial bridge
across the Platte.
The Captain says that men will be
comparatively safe from Indian mo-
lestation after they get into the Hills.
The danger from Indians lays on the
route to the Hills, and the country
where miners would be most liable to
meet the red men is between the
head Of the Running Water and the
Cheyenne. No Indians live in the
hills. They simply pass through
thsm, and they get through as SOON
as possible. They avoid the hills, be-
cause they fear the awful thunder
storms that prevail there.
There were about n thousand
mindksi the Hills last summer, who
were expelled by Capt. Pollock and
his troops. He had no trouble in
makIngt me sinihers obey his orders,
for stsssy respected the law. Excep-
tions were found in the cases of a few
bad men, but they were controlled.
There are about four hundred men
now in the Hills, which Captain Pol
lock considers to ben fair estimate.
