Judge Hidden

Judge Kidder evidently goes back to
Washington fully satisfied with the lay of
the land politically, in Dakota. The
multiplicity Of determined candidates
makes his chances for l.eing taken up as
the compromiSe candidate good, as he ap-
pears to be the only man upon whom con
flioting interests can be harmonized. His
candidacy will be to no purpose, however.

Yellowstone correspondence to E. B. Ware.
1t is long time since I heard from
Bismarck. Can't coax you to write me
q letter? I am told that Bismarck has
grown to be large town since | LETT it:
Usually this is very dull place, yet
dame nature and the noble red man, her
f.voritc child, often furnish us with
variety of entertainments. The last and
grandest entertainment of the season took
place yesterday afternoon. 1t was an
earthquake, in fact three of 'en, forw felt
three distinct shocks following each other
at intervals of perhaps half an hour. The
last shock the most severe. The most re-
markablc thing about it was that the
ground opened about 200 feet above the
barricade for distance Of 500 yards, re-
vealing coal vein which crops out from
the lower (easD side of the tissure ut least
five feet thick. An awful smell Of sulphur
was emitted nearly sitting every man in
the garrison, at the same time was horribly
suggestive, and would have converted even
Bob Ingersoll had he been here. Real es-
tate is now quoted very low at Glendlve.
No serious damage was done except knock
ing the pctrified soldier off of Glcndivc
Butte. Poor fellow, he was our protector
all winter, while the hostiles were crossing
short distance above here, seeing him of
course they took him for a lookout and
kept away. Now there is no telling how
soon we may be jumped.
The only real indian fight that has oc
Cured in this immediate vicinity for the
last ten months, was the one in which Lee
Whalen figured so conspicuously. Ask
him to show you that undershirt, the one
"shot full Of holes" I've seen shirts worn
and torn, but never saw a shirt used up as
that one was offered him red ink to paint
the edges Of the holes, but he said no, that
would be entirely too thick.
Every ong-hnircd fellow in the valley
feels himself sllamcfully slighted by the
TRIBUNE. There was an article published
in that paper, February %, telling all
about the Indian slaycrs Of the Yellow
stone. I have not seen the article in qucs-
ton, but it is the sole topic Of conversa-
ton among all the "hard men" of this sec
ton, from the Terror of the Bad Lands
down to Cracker Box Dan and Camp kct
tie Billy. The Terror informed me ycstcr-
day that he was ''drunk and dressed up,
heelcd and handled, on the war path, and
you bet" he said, "I'll get there plenty"
