THE INDIANS.

CHICAGO, Oct. 14.-An official
dispatch from General Merit, dated
Oct. II, says: He moved down the
river to point near the White
River Agency that morning. The
cavalry had been out looking for
the Indians, and report trails lead
ing to Grand River. He has but
little doubt but that the Indians
have gone to the Uncompahgre
Agency. He expected Gaulbert
and Herry the following day and
would then move toward Grand
River. He had buried several bodies
including Meeker. He was in doubt
about the number the hostiles could
muster. 1t had been clearly ascer.
tanned that all the Uintah Indians
joined the Utes before Thornburgh's
light. lie concludes: "If orders
are to 60 to the Southern Agenc1
and fight what we meet, I shall b,
glad to carry them out, but I hop
my instructions will not be delayed.
Gen. Merritt regrets exceedingl
the great amount of military sup
plies sold these Indians by rancho

passengers were killed and number
wounded. The names of the killed
are Monroe W. Anderson, of Ell

Last evening as the switch engine

A Singular Notion.

Miss Mary Anderson in talk with a newspaper reporter at Louisville, Ky, a few days ago, was asked if the story that Sarah Bernhardt, the French ac- tress, used to sleep in coffin was true, and replied: -..'''"
 "She slept in coffin continuously for three years. She does not do 80 now
 I asked her why she gave up the habit
 She said she had grown tired of it, as the coffin was uncomfortable. She said she wished to familiarize herself with the thought of death. I saw her bou- doir during my visit to Paris. The car- pet was of black velvet, with flowers in silver, the furniture covered with black velvet, and the walls curiously decorated in the same fashion. A skeleton of a man whom she said died of love in Man tua hung before the mirror, with finger pointing at its own reflection. In large bowls about the room rose-leaves were heaped, the fragrance that arose being overpowering. I could not remain ln the room, it was so suggestive of horri- ble thoughts" ,- .. ........ ..,

The Rain FalI.A

Prof. Bass of the Dudley Observatory at Troy, says the Times, reports that the mean rain-iall for. the month of November was four inches and forty three -hundredths, and taat of December to the 2oth, fva-inches and eleven-hun- dredths, an increase over that of thirty days of November of sixty -eigbt- hundredths, equal to one-haf and ighteen hundredths of an inch. When we take into consideration the fact that fall of rain one inch deep, on m acre (43, 56O square feet) is equal to 3,630 cubic feet, or 27, 154 gallons or 862 bar rels, wa are abla to gain ashght concep- ton of the quantity of water failing during tue period above cited. Iu re- calling tho fact that water weighs 621 pounds to the cubic foot, and that one inch of rain on an acre equals 226, ,875 pounds, or over 113 tons on a single square mile 145, 200, 900 pounds, or 72, 600 tons, we are startled with the almost incredible showing. We'll authenticated statistics set forth that the annual fall of rain over the United States east of loo deg. longitude. varies from 32 to 56 inches. Were we to compute @ mean fall upon the basis of A inches, it would give 37, 1928 barrels, or about 5000 tons of rain-water to every acre, and in some localities it would prove even much more than this.
