INDIAN sUrERsr1rren.

The Ogden Pilot learns that q Bsn-
nook boy about twelve years of ago met
with horrible death at the Touring
mills at Fort Hall Indian Agency, Ida
h0, on last Tuesday. The boy was
idling around the mill at the time, and
happened to get in the machinery, and
was badly crushed and manQled before
he could be taken from tho gearing. He
died soon afterwards. It 10 o custom
Of Indians 10 burn or destroy Ill thinRs
connected with the death of their tribe.
For instance, II one meets death by q
kick from horse, the animal is killed;
and if from disease an Indian dies in q
wickiup or lodge, it 10 burned. The mill
in which tho accident occurred WAS
built by the Government at Q cost Of
$1,000 or 5000, and was worth that
amount OF money. Between s and Z
O'Clock on tho morning Of tho 9Th, this
mill was discovered to bo ON hre and
was soon entirely consumed, with q large
amount Of wheat and -four belonging 70
the Indians. This grain and -four wa
worth from $1,000 70 $4,000.
At the agency there are TIVE tribes Of
Indians, Bannocks and Shoshones, and
the grain and dour belonged mostly 70
the latter. From the we'll known prac-
tice of the Indians, which they consider
a religious duty, to avenRe the death of
ono Of their tribe by FIRE or killing, it
was natural to place the destruction Of
the mill at the hands Of the Bannocks,
and the Shosh0nes losing their property
has caused strong feeling between the
two tribes. It il not apprehsndsd that
this will lead to any serious trouble BE-
tween the Indians, and yet it may pos
sibly do 90.
II would seem that all Indians have
pretty much the Same notions in regard
to avsnginR themselves upon anything,
animate or inAnimats, which hurts oF
kills ono Of their people. In Iowa some
twenty-five years ago, when the town Of
Cedar Rapids was in its infancy, . largo
Touring mill was erected, and Was the
pride Of the place. Indians frequently
oams to the mill for -four and were a.
lowed to 90 about in the building pretty
much AZ they pleased, the working Of
the machinery being thing they mover
tired of Watching.
One day several Of tho children Of
the prairie were in the mill and we're
Watching the group of cog wheels At
tached TO the bolting apparatus. Soo-
ing the wheel run 90 smoothly, IN Indi-
an boy was tempted to put his bare foes
upon one Of them. In an instant the
foot was ahofn Of Ill it, toea. SEEING
what the wheel had done, the father Of
the boy seized aledge hammer and
demolished every wheel Of the boltinR
apparatus, and. descending TO the lower
do0T, was proceeding to smash every
mevinQ vheel in the mill, when tho en-
nlOveoa infnYfored and VrAated thA harn-
forward, BY strict rule, svery Indian
was excluded from The mill.

A Very Funny hoy.

On his fathers desk there are a lot
OF buttons connecting with electrical
calls in all subordinate offices of the
department from the Solicitor General
down. One day, not long ago, Benny
was in with his father. Suddenly,
before the father could stop him,
Benny bgan to play upon all of the
electrical buttons al once, as if upon
the keys of piano. Tie Sudden and
repeated calls created a panic in the
department. I he Solicitor-General,
grave, oienitied gentleman, the
Assistant At'orney-General, the chief
clerk, and, in all about 20 ellie f.
came in one after another in mad
haste, only to be met Ivy an apology

A NARROW ESCAPE.
Mrs. George W. Richards Peppercd With
Shot, but not Seriously Injured.

About Z o'clock last evening an ac-
cident occurred to Mrs. George w.
Richards which might have proven
fatal. She called upon Mrs. Knapp,
in company with Mrs. Rupert, Hrs.
Parsons, and Mrs. Pickett, when, the
ladies being expert markswomen, a
target-shooting match was proposed,
Mrs. Richards acting as Aagman.
Several shots were fired, each fair
shootist scoring at least one bull's-eye
at so yards, when Mrs. Parsons took
aim TO- another shot. She told Mrs
Richards to look out for another bulls
eve; but that lad :, misunderstanding
her, ran to the target to look at it.
AS she got i'll range Mrs. Parsons's
gun went off, and several shots
glanced across Mrs. Richards's back
and shoulders, cutting through her
lace collarette and $50 silk Dress, but
none Of thcm penetrating her flesh.
This Is about as narrow an escape
from serious if not fatal injury as any
lady cares to have.

THE BIG CAMAS.
A Gold Vein Fifty Feet Wide That Az.
erages SIS to the Ton.

Matthew Williams, with several
miners, is now at work on the Big
Camas mine. The Camas mine was
started Is years ago when Indians
roamed this section, has been run into
the hill $50 feet, but as no vein was
cut at that distance in, and as the
owners wish to realize some returns
from the property, work was resumed
yesterday on the surface. The out
crop for distance of 800 feet along
the course of the vein is 50 feet wide,
and thousands of tons can be broken
down ana actually quarried out from
the surface, as in most places the
groupings stand several feet above the
ground.
The company expect to build a
double-bed arastra mill, to be run by
horses, and will locate it in the gulch
below the mine, where they have some
80 miners inches of water. The
groupings run an average of s15 to
the ton, and the formation is soft,
rendering the extraction of the ore in
expensive.

Mr.. Braiden, the assignee, is a gen

which he is interested. His standing
wherever he is known is A l, and his
honorability has never been questioned.
He will, without a doubt, do the very
best possible for all parties interested;
and, as the receipts Of the springs bust
ness are SO large and the property is
steadily approaching in value, there
seems to be no doubt of the creditors
getting the last cent due them, especi-
ally as steps lookin to an amicahle
