INDIAN OUIBEEAK.-We are tod by
Capt. Gilbert, of the Winnifred, that a
serious outbreak of the Indians in the
QuiIIyhute valley is expected every day,
The trouble seems to haye originated with
a lawless desperate of an Indian who, a
few wears ago, killed a white man on
Pischt river, was arrested and brought up
the Sound but escaped and returned,
crossing the mountains to his native coun-
try-the Quillyhute 1t being mid-winter
at the time and deep snow lying on the
ground, following and re-capturing the
SCAMP was almost impossible. He was
not seen or heard of for two or three years
afterwards and then no action was taken.
There are altogether only about dozen
settlers on those large prairles of the Gull
lvhute, and the nearest white settl ement
IS az Neeah Bay-sOme so miles distant,
hence the redskins feel very independent.
II appears that the Indian mentioned, on
account of some difference with the Pull
len Bros. brought with him few armed
accomphces and threatened the lives OF
all the settlers. Rev c. A Huntington,
Indian agent at Neeah bay, has sent down
TO have the fellow arrested, but whether
this viii require force sufficiently strong
TO whip the entire Indian settl- -ment down
there or not ~,yins 10 be seea.-PO71

WHITE BOYS AND GIRLS are being en-
ployed in San Francisco to take the place
of Cinnamon. The Cal says the same
experiment was tried befOres hut the great
trouble in the past has been the lack Of
sseadiness on the part of the boys and
girls so employed. Complaint has been
made by employers thatyery little interest
was taken in their work, the main object
beng to get through the day and get their
WAGES. Ii there was picnic or excursion
Of any Kind to which idle companions
were going. employees would want to drop
their work and 90 Sometimes, when
permission could net be obtained they
would 60 without, and take the chance of
being discharged. There has been 50
much complaint Of this character that
there must be something in it. Doubt
less many of the boys and girls are i'm
patient of restraint and disinclined to
submit to the rules necessary for the sue
cessful prosecution Of any business. They
are not lacking in energy or skill, but III
patience and application. We wish to re-
mind our young readers that getting a
living is no child's play it is a serious
thing. All pursuits of pleasure and re-
creation are subordinate TO it Nothing,
except Of course sickness or death, should
be allowed to interfere with work during
working hours. Picnics are wei enough
in their way, but frequent attendance at
these places is of less importance than
the weekly wages on Saturday night. No
boy or girl can become desirable as an
employe unless they show an interest IN
their work and a readiness to contribute
by all reasonable means to the success OF
the businessin which they may be engaged.

IMMENSE YIELD.-0ur farmers are now
busy in harvesting their crops, and in all
parts of the valley the noise and confusion of
threshers and reapers in full operation is to
be heard. As far as heard from the Weld is
satisfactory and greatly beyond expectations
We hear OF report OF one man who
off fifty acres of land, has cleaned 5000 bush
els of excellent wheat And this is not an
exceptional case in many instances the yield
being still greater. Along the foot of the
mountains the crops are immense, in many
cases the yield running up to so bushels to
the acre. The valley has never before been
known TO be SO prolific, ard with the increas-
ed acreage it is quite certain that this year
our farmers viii send TO market fully one NIL

The PoTATo BUG.-A practical entom-
ologist, who has given much attention to
the potato bug, expresses the opinion that
farmers in Maine have little to fear from
the Colorado beetle. The climate is so
cold that only small portion can be ex-
,pected TO live through the winter. He
iinds that the long time that has elapsed
since they commenced their Journey over
the country has given time for their enc
mics TO multiply 10 such an extent that
they must increase slowly Already nu-
merous insects are preying upon then
laryse, and lately something is at work up
on their eggs. He finds that not more

An INGENIOUS INvENTION.-Mr.s W. W:
Baker has recently invented very useful
ccntrivance which no well conducted farm
can afford to do without. His invention
consists Of 4 roller, harrow and sower, and
all combined. The machine is very simple
in construction ard effective IN It's operations.
1t Is so arranged that the whole thing works
with the regularity of clock. The.harrow
consists of a cy inder, attached to which are
a number of sharp iron teeth. As the ma
chine moves forward the toothed cylinder is
caused to reyolye rapidly, and the plough
ed earth is torn IN and pulyerized. The
grain is scattered uniformly i9 front OF this
Circular harrow, and covered with earth by
its revolutions. Behind the harrow is large
roller-made either of wood or irOn-which
crushes the clods and smoothes down the
ground. This combined machine can be con-
structed OF any desirable size; for single
horse, two or double team. A boy with
one suitable for an ordinary span can SOW,
harrow and roll from l. to l6 acres per day.
Mr.. Baker has made application for patent.

INSANITY. Last Saturday a complaint
was fled in the Probate Court TO the effect
that Thomas Bullock was of unsornd mind,
and by reason of insanity unsafe TO be at

that said Thomas Bullock IS a native of Eng
land and about 81 years Of age; that he for
merly resided in the state of Illinois, and
that he was an inmate of the asylum for the

that he suffered from acute mania, whereup-
on he was ordered into the custody of the

THE MATCHES PASS.-We met young
man named Price yesterday, who had Just
come across the mountains from Yakims
CITY, via the Matches Pass The road he
describes as frightful, and says he would
rather cross the E;noqualmie Pass five times
than the Matches cnce. He was helping Pc
terson, of Olympia, to drive over l02 head
of cattle from Yakima valley, but the road
was in such a frightful condition that 1t took
them fifteen days to make the drive from
the foot of the mountain On the east side to
a Ike altitude on the west. The cattle
mired down badly, ard fourteen of them
died from the severity of the journey. The
twelfth day ont their prvisjons gave out
and they were compelled to subsist on ''beef
straight, &" without bread, tea, coffee or any
other auxiliary He describes the settlers OF
Yakima ley as fully prepared for any out
brake the Indiars may make, as they have
c,it trenches in the main street and erected
2 stockado, where they can stand long and
severe siege from the rel devils. George

DEAD BoDY FoUND.-A dead body was
found on the lst inst, under the following
circumstances: AParty OF men were out for
the purpose of exploring the route for a
road on the Umatilla river, about four miles
from the Warm Springs, when they found
the remains OF a man named Miller, who
worked last fall for McWiliiams & Tarrent
He left home sometime in March last to pass
down tie river and had not been heard from
since. The river was high at the tune and the
supposition is that the man was drowned
The deceased is said to have relatives living
in this city, one of them q sister married TO
Col George, the lawyer.

A Lesson. = The folly of sending away
from home for little jobs of printing is Illus
trated in the case of the posters printed for
the use of the Walla Walla Agricultural
Society. The printing is well enough, but
the bill is so marred by errors as to make it
scarcely ineligible. A less snowy poster
could have been printed at home, and rea-
sonably free from errors, would have given
better satisfaction. In this case sense has
been sacrificed for the purpose. of making a
display, and poor display at that
