How to Get Rid of the Indians.

A frOntiersman suggests the following
plan for clearing out the "Injuns." He
of barrels of whisky and lots of big knives,
and I'd put 'em out somewhere in the West
and invite every devilish red skin in the
hull land to what they'd call conference.
After they'd got thar I'd knock in the heads
O. the barrels and scatter the knives all
round loose, 90 they'd be handy. Then I'd
60 away and leave the Injuns to themselves.
Of course they'd take the whisky and
knives, and before sundown thar wouldn't
be more than one red skin left, and then I'd
60 and knock his brains ont afore he could
do any more damage. That, sir's, the only
way to settle the Injun question. I've been
among 'em, an know. Plenty of whisky
an long knives IL fix 'em out, an nothing
else wlll."-Nebraska City Journal.

General A. S. Badger reached home yes
terday after somewhat extended trip
North with his family. He looks remark
ably well, and will confess, if pressed, that
there are many warmer places in the sum-

tarday. He has few new things TO tell,
but has not been injured by his vacation.

Death of General M. Jef Thompson.

Death of General NJ. JEFF Thompson.
The telegraph yesterday brought the dis
tressing intelligence to the family of Cen
eral NJ. JEFF Thompson, that he had died at
St. Joseph, Missouri, at about four o'clock
in the afternoon. For several months he
had been very unwell. In fact, for the past
two or three years his physical condition
has been such as should have prevented his
doing any labor; yet, he was continually in
has marched miles on the levees, all the
while suffering intense pain. His position
was such that he could over and over again
have detailed other engineers, with equal
benefit to the State, and no loss of reputa-
ton. But he preferred to do it himself,
and an examination of his field books will
show no work neglected, no labor shirked,
nothing forgotten, nothing lost that he
could save.
When. after ore Of his arduous trips he
returned, his bright eye was as cheerful and
his laugh as hearty as when he left the city
in health. To only few friends, and only
when they particularly asked, would he
tell his sufforings or describe his labors.
Then there was never thought of COM
plant, but only detail Of what he had &C.
complished in SPITE of his ills. Always i'm
| pulsive, always expressing the uppermost
thought, often denouncing evils yet never
did grumble come from his lips about him
| self If he told how sick he was it was
merely stating an abstract fact that was a
matter of regret as impairing his useful
nees.
General Montgomery Thompson was born
at Harper's Ferry, Virginia, January q,
1926, and was consequently but few
months over fifty years Of age when he
died. He adopted the name of jeff because
of an occurrence in early life, which gave
him the name from his friends, told by his
friend, Mark Twain, in "Roughing It." and
he was called by it ever since. From the
age of twenty he was civil engineer till
the breaking out of the war. He laid out
and superintended the construction of the
Hannibal and St. Joseph railroad, and held
the position of chief engineer until elected
mayor of St. Joseph. This position he held
at the breaking out of the rebellion. He
started in on the Confederate side as a
brigadier of the Missouri State Guards
and was probably as well known a com
mander as any serving under that flag. HI
never held commission from the Gorfed
crate government. He was wounded and
taken prisoner during the war.
| When the war ended he entered com
mercial pursuits and visited the Northern
cities in an attempt to revive an slmost for
gotten trade. In 1868 he became chic,
State engineer of Louisiana, and has held
that Office ever since. About that time
like Longstreet, he was much abused fol
his adoption of Republican principles, bu1
his easy temper was very little ruffled by it
He leaves four children, two having died.
During his term of Office he has been 8
faithful hard working, honest public ser
want. To his friends he was hearty. kindly
and frank; to all he was open and above
board; to his family he was loving and
solicitous. OF himself he was utterly care
less. He never had an unkind thought o.

ing that he had been in favor of the no1ai-
nation of William N. Evarts, not for per-

LOCAL WIND AND TRANSFORMS.

On June II the local weather observations
Of TIE TRIBUNE indicated the approach OF series OF
wind and rain-storms within week or ten days; and
Yesterday these ystaons began. They were produced
by the meeting of strong currents OF warm winds from
the south and colder currents from the norh when Co
minging produced humidity OF the atmosphere and re-
suited in the precipitation Of rain observed In New-lork
City and vicinity yesterday and spoken Of in yesterdays
observations anticipated local showers" The first
OF these showers fell in this city about noon and was
Ooon followed by sunshine. About 4l9 O'Clock strong
breeze almost gale sprang up from the south Watched
