An Indian Scare.
/Nhea1ar Daoor,3,

One day last week there arrived at
Wheeler between fifty and one hundred
Indians, composed largely of old men,
squaws and pappooses. But it seems
that by the time they reached the vicin-
ity of Platt creek and Castalia, they had
SO metamorphosed as to give the appear
ance to some of the tenderfeet of seven
hundred warriors who reported accord
ingly; whereupon there was such gath
ering together and hurrying to and fro
and collecting weapons defensive and
offensive as is seen but few times in the
lifetime of any one person. The great
excitement produced such sensitive
state upon the auditory nerves, that they
could hear the cannon at Fort Randall
and thought that the Indians must be try.
ing to capture the fort. Some few even
saw the Indians cross the river in front of
the fort in their canoes and with uplifted
tolnahawk charge upon the soldiers.
When however few hours elapsed with
out any scalps being raised, they mostly
realized that they were out of danger for
the present at any rate. But one woman
more persistent than the rest, would not
be satisfied until she had her husband
take her to the railroad and she departed
for Iowa, where she can relate to her
awe striker friends the horrors of that
night among the Dakota Indians.

A Clever Swindle
(CasseltOn Reporter,)

A pair of clever swindlers have been
doing the interior towns of Iowa. They
arrive in town, rent the best residences
to be found, spend money freely until
they become we'll known, when the man
goes around to all the dealers and in
quires if his wife has run any bills and,
ifso, lie wishes to settle up. There is
no account against him, but the next day
the woman comes in and buys literally,
stating that her husband will be in and
settle. The merchant is only too glad to
sell to such desirable customers. She re-
peats the operation with every merchant
in town, and thenext day it is discovered
that the couple have skipped, leaving
hundreds of dollars of unpaid bills be-
hind. Quite number of towns in Iowa
have been victinized in this way.

Authorized Vice.
(Minneanolis Tribune.)

The battle between public deccncy on
the one hand and permitted and "as-
sisted" vice and crime on the other is
to be fought here for the whole North
west. To yield one inch of ground to
the despicable theory of the Aliens and
the voiccless newspapers is to notify the
criminals ola continent that the new
Northwest is their safe harbor. A can
cerous nucleus of tolerated and author
lied vice established in a great city
would ultimately and soon delnoralize
and degrade the section of country
tributary to the city. Mayor O'Brien
can no longer doubt that he has on his
side all honorable men and vituous
women. With such support he can af
ford to bespise every element of a differ
ent sort that seeks to hamper him in the
discharge of a plain and imperious duty.

weather will prove of interest. There
fore we present the following notes re-
Gently promulgated by the Farmers
Club of the American Institute. If
farmers and others whose business is
out OF doors and depends upon weather,
will study them closely, they will be
able to guess the weather more accurately
than Virgins or Vennor.
l. When the temperature falls sud.
denly there is storm forming south of
you.
2. When the temperature rises sud-
denly there is storm forming north Of
you.
8. The wind always blows from a re
glon of fair weather toward region
where storm is forming.
4. Cirls clouds always move from q
region where storm is in progress to /,
region of fair weather.
8. Cumulus clouds always move from
region of fair weather to region where
the storm is forming.
D. When q rus clouds are moving
rapidly from north or northeast there
will be rain inside of twenty-four hours,
no matter how cold it is.
Z. When cirrus clouds are moving
from the south or southeast there will
be a cold rain on the morrow if it be in
the summer, and if it be in the win.
ter there will be snow storm.
8. The wind always blows in circle
around storm, and when it blows
from the south the heaviest of the storm
is west of you; if it blows from the east
the heaviest rain is south, if it blows
from the west the heaviest rain is north
of you.
8. The wind never blows unless
rain or snow is falling within 1000 miles
of you.
10. Whenever heavy white frost
occurs, storm is forming within 1000
miles north or northeast of you.
Note-Cirrus clouds are thin, long
drawn, sometimes looking like carded
wool.

A Trip to Dominion City.
Editor PIONEER EXPRESS:

Editor PIONEER EMPRESS:
During the past week your correspon-
-uent, in company with Il friend, spent
two very pleasant days at the Dominion
City Brick works, situated about twelve
miles from Emerson on the Manitoba
railroad. Mr.. Aubury Smith, one of the
partners and under whose management
fireworks are placed, met US at the sta
ton and took US to the grounds, where
we were introduced to Mr.. Olive, the
foreman, who in company with MIR.
Smith showed us over the premises.
The grounds on which the works
are situated seem to have been well
. chosen. 1t is plain to be seen from the
whole arrangement that Mr.. Smith has
a;practical knowledge of and thoroughly
understands the brick making business.
Tie company has gone to great ex-
pense in testing the quality of the clay in
the vicinity of their works, having used
what is considered the best machinery
fog.testing the component parts of the
clay. After various trials Mr.. Smith was
convinced that the clay was suitable;
he then procured two. new machines and
proceeded with the manufacture of
brick on the dry process, He has now
on hand two kilns of burned brick super
ior to any ever made in the Red River
valley, This is the opinion of Mr.. Braw-
ley, than whom there is no one in this
section of country better qualified to
speak on the matter. The clay is plowed
and narrowed and when dry taken into
/, a large shed at the end of which it is
y thrown into the pulverizer, from which
it passes through elevators to box on a
revolving table. During the first revolu-
ton two lnoulds are being filed with
clay, two bricks are being pressed and
two bricks removed. Each brick is sub
ject to double action pressure of eighty
tons in weight. The pressure proceeds
from top and bottom and of course meets
in the center leaving each brick as
smooth as planed board. When burned
the brick is a light red color-npt SO
dark as the St. Louis brick, which has a
greater portion of iron in the clay. One
Z reason why the Dominion City brick are
so much superior to those made
heretofore ip this country is because OF
the perfect manner in which the lime
portion of the clay is Stacked or dissolved
by the pulverizing, all the component
parts being reduced to dust. This being
compressed into one solid mass leaves
no portions of lime for the atmosphere to
expand, and cause the brick to c;ack and
crumble. We have no doubt that the
company will find Mr.. Smiths persever.
ance source of satisfaction and remun-
GRAFTON.

Hermosillo special saye: A detachment Of
troops which followed the Apachcs from
the southeast had several running fights
from Ures to Gambries, and claimed
to have killed nearly the whole band.
After losing the trail OF the balance, some
Of the soldiers visited Gamble, where q
soldier, who was in the campaign last year,
recognized Whitman, who was with the
Indians at that time, acting as chieiin one
fight. This soldier was wounded and left
on the field for dead, but was conscious.
From his description Of the Apache chief
II was thought to be L. N. Suector, for.
merly United States agent, a most desperate
character. For more than two years he
has been leader Of q band Of Apaches.
His capture proves he was not mistaken
in his man. Gov. Terres ordered him To
be brought to Hermosillo, but It is doubt.

reaches the troops. ~.
