An Indian conference will shortly be
held at Washington, when the question of
how best to protect the Indians against the
sale OF intoxicating liquor and control the
sale of firearms will be discussed. The
conference is expected to be productive OF
a better feeling in the red men towards the
Government, and if a proper stand is taken
and evidences of good faith manifested by
the authorities there can be no doubt that
the result will be as desired. The Indians
are not anxious to keep up continual war
fare, but they have rights which they very
Justly consider should be acknowledged
and defended. If these are assured them
they will doubtless give as little trouble as
do those in our own northwest Territories.
Among the chiefs who will be present at
the conference are Red Cloud and Sitting
Bull.

ARTESIAN WELLS.

Some years ago Charles w. Kendall, who
represented Nevada in the Lower House of
Congress, introduced bill to encourage
the boring of artesian wells by giving
grants of public lands to those who sue
ceeded IN getting flowing water on the
deserts. The idea was ridiculed by the
leading papers of Nevada, which were
po,iticslly opposed to Mr. Kendall, and the
bill never became a law Since then the
idea suggested By him has been embodied in
an Act of Congress making an appropriation
for boring artesian wells somewhere in the
arid regions west Of the Missouri river.
The supervision of the work has been en-
trusted to Commissioner Loring, who has
appointed Professor White, of Greeley,
Colorado, and Professor Anghey, of Lin
coin, Nebraska. to select the localities in
which the work shall be carried on. The
Commissioner in his instructions to Pro-
lessor White has confined the experiments
TO an area comprising the western portions
of Dakota, Nebraska, strip of Western
Kansas, the eastern portion of Montana,
Wyoming. Colorado and New Mexico, and
about one third of Texas. Nevada, which
originated the ida, is to derive no benefit
whatever from the Act of Congress, as the
appropriation is to be expended some
where east of the Rocky Mountains.-Sl-
Ger State.
Cheap irrigation has always been vexed
problem with the farmers of Nevada. In
last Sundays APPEAL was a description OF
cheap windmill which pumped 1000 gal
ions day from Carson well dug thirteen
feet in sagebrush soil. If water can be
found at this depth in the valleys there is
no need of expensive irrigation bitches or
deep artesian wells.

Whata Biz Show il Good For,

His satanic majesty held high carni-

was more drunkenness, fighting and
other devilment here on Saturday than
the city ever before witnessed i'll any
one day. The police had their hands
full, and acquitted themselves ad-
mirahly, considering the small force.
There were half dozen big lights and
how many small ones we cannot tell.
The day closed with n general knock
down about l. O'Clock at the old de-
pot, Clinton avenue, when the circus
wagons were being loaded on the cars.
Some Mil Hall and Flemingtan lads,
and few Lock Haven roughS cut the
train times, which SO eXasperated the
showmen that they made a break for
the home gang. Half dozen pistol
shots were fired, and we believe one OF
Lock uaven's peuitentiary birds re-
ceived shot in his thumb. To make
long story short, black eyes, broken
noses and swelled heads were numer-
ous.-Lock HaUcn journal.

A DETERMINED SUICIDE.
George Markey Hangs Him
self to O. Rack FIVE Feet
from the Ground.

George Markey, a we'll known farm
er residing in York township, York
county, on Shearer'S road, about three
miles from York, was found hanging
in the barn by his daughter about $
o'clock Tuesday morning, life being en-
tirely extinct, Mr.. Marlley had taken
driving line, and after placing a loop
around his neck, had fastened the 9th
er end to a rack III his barn, about five
feet above the floor, and bending his
body, with his feet touching the floor,
deliberately ended his life. Mr..
Markey WAS in good circumstances and
owned the farm upon which he resided.
Nothing is advanced rs TO what caused
the mental trouble which led to the
rash taking of his life. He was about
forty-hve years of age, aud leaves Il
wife and SIX children. Mrs. Markey is
in very bad health, having been con-
fined to her bed for about a year.
There is consolation in the fact
that hereafter for some years we shall
have cooler weather and more rain. The
cause of this change is thus accounted
for: The sun undergoeS changes, and
the period of this change is from IL to
Is years. During this period the
number of spots on the sun undergo
gradual change from their minimum to
their maximum number, the heat be-
ing greatest when the spots are the
most numerous; and as this year the
spots have arrived at their maximum
number and will hence diminish, we
may look FOR cooler SummerS and more
moisture hereafter. Such at least are
the observations OF astronomers. -

A NEW INSTRUMENT OF
DEATH.
Killed by Artificial Lightning in
an Electric Company's Genera
ting Room.

BUFFALO, August IA strange
and terrible accident occurred last eve
ming at the generating rooms of the
Brush Electric Light Company, on
GaAsOn street, across the creek. A
bout 8 O'Clock two young men named
George Leonard Smith and Henry
Kimban, in company with another
young man and two girls, stepped into
the station and stood looking at the
mac hinery in motion. Smith was very
inQuisitive and wanted TO experiment.
The manager, Mr.. G. w. Chaffe, al.
lowed hlm to try q harmless expert
ment, which consisted of taking hold
Of one Of the brushes attached to the
commentator in which the electricity
is held until carried away over the
wires, and then taking holl of the
hands of his companions a gentle Cur
rent Of electricity WAS passed through
their bodies. Smith wanted to take
hold of two Of the brushes, but Mr..
Chaffe grabbed h:s arm, telling him it
was sure death to touch them. The
party shortly afterwards left, NJ.
Chaffe telling them to get ont. About
d quarter past 10 o'clock Smith sud
denly came into the building, seeming
ly under the influence of liquor. He
leaned over the railing which Keeps
outsiders at distance from the ma
chinery and before warning word
could be said he had grabbed the first
and third brushes. Mr.. Chaffe saw
what he was about to do and made q
jump for him. His hand stuck fast
to the brushes, and giving the en-
gineer the word to stop the engine he
took hold Of Smith and endeavored to
pull him from his hold. This he was
unable to do, but as soon as the engine
stopped Smith raised himself TO his
feet and throwing up his arms, gave a
loud gasp and expired Instantly. The
thing was done 50 quickly that those
who witnessed it could scarcely believe
their eyes. Smiths face had pale
blush tint and was drawn out of
shape. His hands were badly burned
and on several OF the fingers the flesh
was burned to The bone.
