THE INDIANS.

4Sitting Bulf on Canadian S0il-Well Supplied With Provfsions-A Jealous Indian Commits Suicide.
 FoRT BUFoRD, D. T., Feb. 13.-Louie zLegarn, just reached here from Woody Mountain, reports that Sitting Bull reached sthat place with seven lodges on the 27th of 'Jannary. Sitting Bull now says he will not |surrender, but will remain there. The Cana dian authorities will notify him to leave, but will not forcibly compel him to do so. Those who surrendered and are now here say he Twill starve to death where he is, and must soon come in. His camp, however, killed a |great many buffalo while at Milk Run, and he is we'll provided with meat for some time Ito come, certainly plenty to carry him through the cold weather. The eight hun |dred captured and surrendered hostiles here have had clothing and blankets issued to them, and with plenty to eat are perfectly satisfied, and are glad they came. It is to be- hoped that this feeling will continue.
 Bobliest Chien, a quarter breed, and for a number of years past interpreter, yesterday
 shot his wife through the head, and, suppos1 ing her dead, shot himself through the brain |and died almost instantly. His wife is doing well and will recover. Jealousy, which is sol
 strong in the Indians nature, is given as the
 cause. He was young man, twenty years|
 of age He has never been further east than!
 Fort Stevenson, which is about one hundredI
 and twenty-five miles east of here. All hel
 knew of civilized life was what he had heard.
 He had good knowledge of the Indian Ian
 guage, and his death, especially at this time,
 lis deplored.

 Godfrey immediately addressed her, say ling as he presented his card:
 Pardon my apparent intrusiveness; but sprithee, have you lost pet dog?"
 The explanation that he had been stolen
 was scarcely necessary, for Leicester, just awakening, vehemently expressed his inex
 pGcable joy by buoyantly vibrating between the two like the sounding lever used in tele. 1graphy (for to neither of them would he show partialty), till succumbing to ennui, he pur- ported to take recess, and sat on his
 launches, complaisantly contemplating his friends. It was truly an interesting picture.
 They reached their destination ere the sun was beneath the horizon. Often during the summer Winthrop gallantly rowed from the Aquay with the naive and blthe Beatrice in her Ajaunty yachting suit; but no coquetry shone from the depths of her azure eyes.

 Let us look into the future for the sequel Ito perfect this romance, and round cheer aful hearth we see again Godfrey and Beatrice, who are paying due homage to their tiny tfriend Leicester.

The wag- ons contain four days rations, biscuit, pre- Fserved meat for the men and compressed for zage for the horses, boxes of medical com *forts, tents, blankets, waterproof sheets, acamp kettles, picket posts and ropes, lan- sterns and butchers implements and tools for 5intrenching purposes: Seventy rounds of aban will be issued to the rank and file of the 4infantry and twenty to each infantry ser Kgeant, while the cavalry and Royal Engineers r will be served with forty rounds per man.
 Of these quantities the Royal Engineers and iinfantry will carry with them forty rounds.

 the presence of an imposing military force.
 is added that the quantities of arms which,
 are known to be in the possession of an ex- jcitable peasantry enhances the danger of vio-
 lent armed opposition to the execution of the|
 law. The utmost vigilance is being shown by the military authorities, who are guarding thel barracks and public buildings in Ireland. Everything is in readiness to meet an attack! from any quarter. Extra sentries patrol theI bank of Ireland in College Green. and the castle and the magazine fort in Phoenix Park. The extra duty imposed upon all ranks anal branches of the army is of most harassing description. Altogether, service in Ireland isl looked upon just now as somewhat more un- pleasant than fighting the Boers or runningi |the risk of the fever and ague on the Goldt Coast. At the Loughrea Session, one Habon, al Land Leaguer, has been sentenced to threeI months imprisonment and bound over toE keep the peace for one year for seditious1 speech, in which he declared himself an IrishH Republican, owing no allegiance to the Brit |ish Grown, and calling on his hearers toE strike a final blow for the independence of Ireland.

Hanlan's Next Race-Everything Ready for To-Day's Struggle.
 LONDON, Feb. 13.-The interest in Mon- Iday's boat race has increased during the last few days, and large crowd visited Putney ato-day to witness the last practice. Both men were in good condition. Hanlan rows in a
 Canadian boat. Layceck has the same boat
 which was in the previous matches. The
 race will come of at 2 o'clock in the after noon. There is little betting, but 3 to l is freely accepted and offered on Hanlan. If
 Hanlan should win he will become the abso- lute owner of the Sportsnsaaa Championship Cup, having already defeated Elliott and
 Trickett. Besides the cup and the stake he will gain e1OO promised by the donors of the !cup. The proprietors of the SportsnG7a will further present him with commemorative medal valued at twenty-five guineas. It is felt that without the championship trophy .aquatics in England are in danger of becom- ing stagnant at period when strenuous eff forts are necessary to overcome American |competition. The proprietors of the Sports- 'naa1a, with the view of encouraging English oarsmen to renew their exertions, will offer for competition another champion challenge cup, valued at 200 guineas, double the value |of the one to be contested for on Monday. In .order that northern scullers may be melted Ito distinguish themselves it has been decided that the first contest for the new cup will take place on the Tyne during the coming summer. Hanlan sails on Thursday next in the steamer City of Chester. He will be ac- |companied by Wallace Ross. Trickett will visit America during the spring to take part |in the regattas. Laycock sails for Sydney on Saturday.
 PUTNKY, Feb. 14-5 A. M.-The prospects for the race are very good and both men |are in excellent condition. The time was fixed for the race to take place lat 2 p. m-, but it may possibly come of a lit |tle earlier.
