Not True.

The report published some time ago in the
Main street What-is-it that Hank Atchison,
well-known in Benton, had been frozen to
death between Forts Mckinney and Custer,
turns out to be without the least foundation
in fact. Joe. Atchison, of Highwood,
brother of the reported dead man, was in
town yesterday, and received an answer from
. telegram sent to Fort Mckinney, to the
effect that his brother is at that place and
presents rather an animated appearance for a
corpse. Not only is Atchison not dead, but
he had never been in the slightest danger Of
freezing to death. Joe. was well pleased to
receive the good news.

about 'sarresting" Indians, especially without
any warrant of law. We have two or three
military posts in this vicinity and if there
are any Indian troubles to settle probably it
would be best to turn the job over to them.

John K. Martin, who was in the engine
room of the Gen. Sherman last year, reached
here last evening. He will run on the Butte
this season,
Geo. Faulk, formerly the engineer Of the
steamer Bachelor, arrived from the east
yesterday and will this year ride on the
Butte with Jack Martin.
The Butte's new cylinder timber has been
got in place and her displaced engine was
put back yesterday. Now she is ready for
the flood, either Of ice or business.
John Shackelt, the old river engineer, has
been overhauling the machinery on the Mon
tana, during the past ten days. He will pre-
side at engines Of that craft this season.
The ''woodhaw ks" along the river are get
ting out a large quantity of fuel for the
steamboat trade. Every timbered point, our
informant assures US, is occupied by a wood
yard. The hawks have been industrious
during the winter. They have been working
for a stake, and the result of their industry
will be flush times on the upper Missouri.
ALI. Mclean, for thirty years a faithful
engineer on the Missouri river, and one of
the most competent in his profession, besides
being a good egg on general principles, takes
charge of the Nellie Peck's machinery this
season. He will be assisted by J. FL. Am.
