As A passenger train on the ST.. Paul
road was approaching FranksyiIle, a
man was discovered by the engineer on
the track ahead. But the train could
not be stopped, and the engine strncie
the man, throwing him full sixty feet.
The train was stopped and the engineer
and fireman, with basket and shovel,
proceeded to the spot to shovel the man
up and take him aboard. When they
reached the poor fellow, he was found
sitting up, drinking out of a bottle, and
a smile Of almost celestial sweetness
wreathed his countenance as he removed
the bottle and asked: "'Di hurt yer
(hic) engine any? Fl did, I beg'er
par'n." He was assured that no serious
damage had resulted, and WAS left alone
in his glory.-Peck's Sun.

An inquest was held wei theremains
of "Dr." Strong, who died recently at
Tie Siding, and who has been a familiar
figure in this city. Says the Boomt-
rang:
Coroner Guenster wal summoned to
Tie Siding Saturday evening by a tele-
gram announcing the sudden death of a
man claiming to be a dentist, who gave
his name a Strong. An inquest was
held, the following gentlemen compos-
ing the jury: j. S. McCool, j. B. Bur
ton, E. G. Whitmeyer, John Fletcher,
S. Fuller and L. coleman. A verdict
was rendered to the effect that the de-
ceased came to his death through ex
cessive drinking. Strong was a native
of Hartford, Connecticut, where he has
a sister now living. His father died in
that city some time ago, and left the
deceased $1,000, which he has blown in
for whiskey."

The sioux Reservation

Says the Black Hills Times of a vast
section of fine grazing land which has
been the cynosure of stock growers
eyes for a long time:
1T must not be understood that al
though a bill has passed for arranging
the means for opening the Sioux reser-
walton, it is now open or that
white men have any right there. They
have not at present, and should any go
there they would be removed as tres
passers. The policy for years pursued
By the government IN Indian affairs is
now considered by all parties a humbug.
Fortunately the secretary of the inter-
Tor is a western man who thoroughly
comprehends the whole question. Per-
hitting the savage tribes to occupy i'm
mense tracts of the richest farming
lands for only hunting purposes or bat
tie grounds'and supporting them into
the bargain, is a manifest absurdity.
The sentiment now prevails that all
tribal relations should be abolished,
and each Indian allotted a tract of
land sufficient for a good farm; that he
should be instructed in the cultivation
of it, and taught in time to depend on
himself. The commission provided for
in the bill is intended to merely perfect
the arrangements and come to an un.
Outstanding with the Indians regarding
their lands. An immense reservation
extending from u southern boundary
to the center of the territory is ridicu-
lous. Should southern Dakota be ad.
mitted as a state, it would be divided
in two unequal parts from north to
south, its entire length, by this enorm-
u reservation. The eastern division
. would not suffer, as it is near the great
high ways; but the Hills are on th G
wrong side and would be isolated from
the great commercial cities, and per-
haps from the state capital. Reserva-
tions should be reduced or abolished
entirely.
= The reservation contains "a, 900
square miles, embracing 81, 200, 000
acres of splendid agricultural lands.
Twenty-four thousand Indians, mostly
at military posts, inhabit it. There
fore. each man, woman and child could
have nearly a thousand acres of land.
1t would be exact justice and good
policy to give every man, woman and
child l60 acres for a farm. This

A correspondent of the Laramie
Times, speaking of Wyoming's exhibit
at Denver, makes Commissioner Jansen
to say:
"From Rock Springs we have some
specimens of coal measuring 4x5 feet.
We expect to show the finest display of
coal. Then we have from the bad lands
near Fort Bridger, petri6ed mammoths
and turtles. An interesting specimen
is the skull of a Mintatherium, the
species christened by Prof. Leidy, of
Philadelphia. The only perfect skull is
that at Princeton college, which shows
the six horns. Several specimens show
the corroding of rock by natural sand
blasts.
From w. Holland, of Twin creek, on
the Oregon Short Line, we are prom.
Used some fossil fish. To make sure OF
these specimens / have communicated
with Jesse Bell, who will supply us, II
Mr.. Holland fails. Twin creek will
also contribute lava, petriied wood and
fossil leaves. DIR. J. Van A. Carter,
will send some petroleum from Pioneer
Hollow. 1t is to.be hoped that the ex
position may lead to a renewed interest
in the petroleum industry in Wyoming.
Among other specimens will be blocks
of soda from Soda Lake, magnetic iron
ore from Iron mountain, and dressed
section of trees showing the quality Of
