Our trip to Fort Totten.

Having an opportunity to ride to Fort
Totten, in the ambulance sleigh that
brought the psymaster down from the
Fort, where he had just paid the soldiers
At the post, we concluded to make our
intended visit to that place, leaving here

died in furs, and sitting on the lee side
of our portlr friend T. B. Harris of this
place, we stood the battle we'll, but must
confess that the wintery blast was hard on
driver and team.
Leaving jamestown, we passed out upon
the prairie, away from signs Of c!viliza

stretching away as far as the eye could
reach. and heading to, wards the north star,
pushed ON for the fort which is "a miles

Twenty two miles out We were going to
stop at Jack CIaytons dirt ranch, but its
owner having severely frosted himself on
last New Years day, and being in hospital
at the post, and there being no wood to
cook or warm with, no grub cooked, and
but little t" cook and there being an ex-
cessive(y good prospect for cold sit up
al night if we stayed, the crowd Of US very
unanimously agreed to pull for Larribec's
rauch near Lake Bclland, 20 miles further
on, at which we arrived before dark.
Mr.L.rribee and his wife are comfortably
located half way between here and the

youth by the name of Thomas Cooper came
from Dayton to Hamilton and engaged in
the laundry business. Finding opposition
strong and competition sharp he employed
colored women to do his work, refusing to

thing soon grew monotonous when one of
his discharged females brought suit to re-
cover so cents, her due. This being Just rs

The tide rose, and the stranded boat was

the sun was shining, bat they were in
the opsp sea. There was . dead calm.
The sun was scalding, and the men

captive man-eater to keep him alive.

was not enough breeze to stir her limp
