THE IDAHO INDIAN WAR.
On to the Front.

Boise City, July 17.-Battery b,
mounted as cavalry, arrived here to-
day, commanded by Captain Hasbrouk
and Lieuts. Ennis, Chaplin, Hammond
and Wilson. This company consists of
60 enlisted men. The horses are of the
largest size and unfit for mountain
travel and rough campaigning. 1t is
the opinion of the officers and others
who know the country, that the horses
will give out and the men left on foot
after a few days travel in the noun
tains.
Lieut.. Wilson, with 20 Indian scouts
from Fort Hall, arrived here a few
minutes before Capt. Hasbrouk. These
are the last of the troops which are to
come this way,
Without change of orders, Fort
Boise will be left without a garrison,

thousands of acres of as fine soil to be
found there as anywhere Oh the CONT

BILE fire ON the Turks. For half an
hour this musketry drill continued with
undated vigor.
About midday on Sunday the order
for the assault was given, and the
whole Russian line, supported by sew
eral batteries of artillery, stormed the
heights occupied by the Turks. During
the awful climb in the face of a deadly
fire, the Russians suffered terribly,
while the Turks, stubbornly defending
their position, sustained a terrible loss.
After obtaining possession of the
heights commanding the town, at a
terrible cost, the Russians virtually
had Nicopolis at their mercy.
The Turks finding their line of re-
treat threatened, abandoned the town,
which was filed with Turkish dead.
Many wounded were found in the
streets and in the houses where they
had been abandoned by the Turks in
the haste of their retreat.

The diseases arising from compress
sion of the chest and body in early
life are not exclusively restricted to
the female sex. Schoolboys and
youths constantly practice the habit
of binding up their clothes around
their bodies by means of a belt tight
ened firmly above the hips, instead of
wearing the braces over the shoulder.
Some boys and youths are also taught
the plan Of putting on al extra belt
for holding in the breath" before they
run or leap. In the pursuit of certain
active businesses, in which weights
have to be carried, this same system
of wearing tight belt is adopted and
practiced by workingmen, until the
and ingenious support, as it
is assumed to be, becomes like the
corset of a woman, a veritable neces-
sity. To the belt the same objection
applies as to the tight band and cor
set. 1t impedes the free action of the
abdominal organs; itimpedes the free

A five hours caucus Of Republican Senators

were the so-called Southern policy" and
"civil-service policy Of the administration,
with special reference to the Louisiana contest,
and sundry nominations before the committees.
Opinions were freely interchanged by nearly all
the Senator'S, showing that the majority were
not in accord with the views and actions Of the
President on the subjects discussed, but less
than a majority were disposed to make any
formal issue with him. Such course was
not deemed expedient in party
sense, nor called for by public inter
est under the present circumstances" The
Democratic Senators also held q caucus, at
which it was agreed, with Eaton, OF Connecti-
cut, dissenting, to support all the nominations
of the President, unless II should be ascertained
in any particular case that the person nomi-
mated was unfit.

A Remarkable Snake Story.

A remarkable story of snake-charm-
ing" has been brought to light here.
Mr.. Luke Brewer lives near the dock in
this city, and is the father of little
gill and boy aged respectively and 6
years. He discovered on Saturday last
that his children had been in the habit
of playing with a water snake three and
n half feet in length. 1t appears that
the reptile had made its land home un-
derneath the kitchen-fooring of Mr..
Brewers dwelling, and came thence
through an orifce in the ground just out
side the house. The little girl, on the
day above mentioned, informed her
father that they had pretty pet just
like an eel, that came out of hole
in the ground and played with them and
the kittens. He asked the child to show
him where it was, but was told that it
would not come out while he was there.
He left for few minutes, and while re-
turning was met by his daughter, who
said she had called her pet, and it was
now playing with her brother. The
frightened father FASTENED to the yard,
and was almost paralyzed with fear on
discovering his little boy caressing the
snakes head. He ordered the little fell
low away. The child reluctantly CONF
piled by stepping back, when the reptile
commenced to make for its den. The boy
then moved toward it, calling it endear-
ing names, and was about to pick it up,
when Mr.. Brewer dispatched it, against
the earnest and fearful entreaties of the
infatuated children. The boy, robust,
healthy little fellow, refused to be COM
forted, abstaining from food the rest of
the day, and begging to be allowed to
bring the dead serpent into the house.
Mr.. Brewer thinks that the children had
been amusing themselves all summer
with their strange pet. The tail of the
snake, for distance of three inches
from the end, bore evidence that two
kittens, which were in the house, had
also been participants in the SPORT
