Amusements.,

For the past few evenings tile amuse-
ment loving citizens of Bismarck have
been entertained by the performances CIV
en- at Raymond's Hall by the Sawtelie
Dramatic troupe of Helena. Mr.. j. AL.
Sawtelle is an actor of considerable hote,
having played in most of the tirst-class
theatres of the country, and is now on a
short vacation from. his own theatre at
Helena. His support IS very, good, es-
pecially in the play Of Rip Van Wrinkle,
which character he personated last We'd
nesday night. The stage and hall are ar
ranged neatly and look quite metropolitan.
There are eleven people in the troupe
and the class of acting is truly of "a high
degree" Solarge and cultivated an au-
dience never before congresated at any
performance in this city as greeted the
Sawtelles on their opening night, and
while applause was not frequent, loud
or long, there was that almost breathless
attention, which accompanies the highest
| admiration, to be noted on every hand.
"Rosedale" was exceedingly well render
ed to a fair house, while Handy An

RED SKINS ON THE Roll,
GEN. MILES ORGANIZING AN
EIPIDITION.,t
Poplar River Indian Agency Being
Deserted and Troops Called
for to Protect White
Settlers--Notes. 80,
NILES EXPEDITION.

Gen. Miles is organizing an expedition
from the troops at Forts Keogh and Gus
ter to move north of the Missouri river
and summer in the vicinity of Poplar Riv-
er Indian Agency. It appears that the
government has taken official notice of
the hostiles who have been crowding the
agency Indians and running off their buf-
falo. The latter protest and the authori-
ties propose to support their protest with
the army. These Indians are invaders
from the British side and liberal inter-
probation Of their status will warrant Gen.
Miles IN scooping them up as he did the
Cheyennes, Nez Perces and Bannocks. r..
Last week w. A. Peterson, formerly of
this city, and his partner, Mcdonald,
were attacked by Indians at their wood
rancho, in the neighborhood Of Glendive
creek. Mcdonald was fatally wounded
and Peterson shot through the thigh with
an arrow. Mcdonald died but Peterson
will recover. Two companies of the Fifth
Infantry under Captains Ever and Snyder
were sent out from Keogh by Gen. Miles
to run down the Indians and punish them.
LATER.
Since the above was written Geo. Will
son has arrived from the Yellowstone
country and reports that the Indians have
driven off all the settlers and wood yards
from the north side of the river and may
be expected to cross to the south side rs
soon as the river can be crossed by their
war parties. Indeed one party of seven
teen did cross and attacked the mail sta
ton at Spring Creek, but were driven off.
One of the ranch men, Montague, was
shot through the hand. At Fairpoint the
ranchers have one Indian scalp nice and
fresh, One man is missing from the Por-
cupine and he is supposed to have been
killed. The outlook presents lively ap-
pearance and all who visit the north side
OF the Yellowstone are invited to fasten
on their scalps with needle gun. H..
A company of soldiers has been order
ed to Poplar Creek from Buford to quiet
the troubles there.

she sprang forward and succeeded. in get
ting hold of the reins and throwing all
her weight on him, thus somewhat chek-
ing his speed. just then the stirrup
gave way releasing Ethel, who, with the
exception of a sprained ankle and some
bruises, was uninjurcd. Na
The horse, now completely maddened,

himself to where she lay and raised her
head tenderly upon his breast. For q

feared life was entirely extinct; but
after while there was shuddoring,
then faint moan escaped her. and her
eyes opened slowly. A bright smile
overspread her countenance, showing
that she was perfectly conscious.
! N'Are you much hurt, Annie I? It
was'wrong for you to risk your life as
you did" The words were uttered in
the kindest tone, and Ethel felt at that
moment that he would give worlds had
he possessed them, to lie in Annie's
place and suffar as he knew she suffered
The white lids partly yelled the eyes
as she murmured, che chdes me for

Heaven will be dreary without him.
The long lashes dropped down on the
pale cheek, there was twitching about
the mouth, and Ethel Wynnc was alone

For THE LAST TIME. There is touch
of pathos about doing even the simplest
thing "for the last time" It is not
alone kissing the dead that give us this
strange pain. You feel it when you
have looked your last time upon some
scene you have loved-when you stand
in some quiet city street where you will
never stand again. The actor playing
his part for the last time, the singer
whose voice is cracked hopelossly, and
who after this once will never stand before
the sea of upturned faces disputing the
plaudits with frcsher voices and fairer
forms, the minister who has preached
his last sermon-these all know the
hidden bitterness of the two words
"never again" How they come to us
on our birthdays as we grow older
Never again young, always nearer 10
the very last-thc end which is universal
"the last thing which shall follow all
thing and turn them, let us hope, from
pains to joys" We put away our boyish
toy with an old heartache We are too
old to walk any longer on our stiltS--too
tall to play marbles on the sidewalk.
Yes there wasa pang when we thought
we had played when our merry thoughts
for the last time, and lfe's serious grown
up work was waiting for US. Now We
want not the lost toys back. Life has
other and larger playthings Cor US. May
it not be that these too shall seem in tho
light Of some far-of days as the boyish
games seem to our manhood, and we
shall learn that death is but the opening
Of the gate into the new land Of our
promise
