Wind and Fire.
Special to the River Press.

Special to the River Press
Fort AssINABOINE, October 5, 1885.
This place was visited on Saturday even
ing, the Sd inst. by a violent wind storm.
The prairie had been burning TO the north
and east Of us all day, and when the storm
came it carried with it such volumes Of
sand and SNAKE as to make it almost suffo-
eating and impossible to see fifty yards.
Every soldier at the post was ordered out
to be reacY to. fight the fire should it be-
come necessary, but fortunately it did not
cross Milk river. The fire continued to
burn all Saturday night Sunday and Sum
day night, and is probably burning yet, as
smoke can be seen some distance to the
north and northeast. T.

CoRRALING THE INDIANS.
a Bunch of Raiding Redskins Gathered In

Yesterday afternoon, the Both ult., says
the Billings Gazette, citizens of Junction
City observed considerable band of
Grows in the vicinity of that village, on
their way to the Yellowstone, and appar-
emily returning from horse stealing ex-
pedition. Deputy Sheriff Frank MeCor-
mick and Jerry Crimmens sailed out and
arrested seventeen OF the party, securing
forty horses which were in possession of
the Indians. Mccormick and Crimmens
then corraled the remainder of the In
dians, seventeen in number, on rocky
point near junction and sent message to
Capt. Jackson, of the 1st cavalry, who,
with his company, was stationed across
the Yellowstone from Junction, looking
out for marauding Indians. The captain
at once crossed the river and completed
the capture of the Crows, gathering in
seventeen Indians and about eighty horses.
OF the horses capturedby Mccormick and
Crimmens, ten were Fbranded. Sheriff
King went down to Junction last evening
and interviewed Captain Jackson, who
agreed to take the Indians to Fort Custer
and hold them subject to such action as
the authorities of Yellowstone county
may take. The sheriff ascertained that
one of these Indians, answering to The
name of Joe Bush, had fresh beef in his
possession when captured. Further in
quiries pointed to the probability of the
Indians having killed one or more beeves
between Junction and the Musselshell.
The sheriff sent out men to look up the
matter, and the result will probably be
that Mr.. Bush and some more OF his red
brethren will be brought to trial at the
next session of our district court on the
above charge.

FIGHTING FIRE.
The Fires on the Shonkin all Out and the
Winter Range Preserved.

Several Of the men who had been out
for four days fighting fire on the Shon-
kin range returned Saturday afternoon and
brought the welcome news that the fires
had been all whipped out, and that the
winter range of the Shonkin association
had been saved from the ravages of the
fiery tiend. The fire has burned from the
Missouri river to Winschell's, distance
of twenty miles, over space several miles
in width. Twelve men were out three
days and two nights contending with the
flames, scarcely taking time to eat, much
less to sleep, and how well they worked is
shown by the result.
The mode of procedure will be of inter-
est to others who may be called upon to
preserve the range from the flames. A
large wagon sheet was secured and ropes
about thirty feet in length attached to two
corners of the same. Two horsemen then
tied the ropes to the pOmmels OF their sad
dies and would thus drag the sheet-kept
damp by water hauled in wagons-along
the line of the fire, putting it out almost as
fast as the horses could walk. One or two
men followed to whip out any fire that
might be left.
Dan Sample also had a party out COM
batting with the flames on his range in
the vicinity of the Coal Banks and we
learn has been successful in checking the
fire. Most of the cattle of the Shonkin
range have been driven by the fire to Ar
row creek, which is the winter range, ard
the cattlemen in few days will drive
them back this way.

More Indian Horse Thieves.


While en- route to Maiden, Messrs.
Throop and Coryell met a man named
Fox who was on his way to Judith Land
ing with wagon load of potatoes. He
informed these gentlemen that he had just
been held up and all his grub taken from
him by small band of Indian horse
thieves who claimed to be Peigans. The
Indians crossed Dog creek near Gjerde's
sheep ranch. w. T. swope, on hearing
the news, started for James Fergus ranch,
from which place a courier was sent to
Fort Maginnis. A detachment of troops
are probably after the redskins" ere this.
They had some thirty head of horses. 1t
is thought they are Grows instead of Pei

"H. H" to the President.

WASHINGTON, September 28.-On the
presidents return from the Adirondacks
he found awaiting him the following let
ter from Mrs. Helen Hunt Jackson, the
well known authoress 'sH. H. and advo-
cote of Indian rights, which was written
by her four days before her death.
Dear Sir: From my death-bed [ send
you message of heartfelt thanks for what
you have already done for the Indians.
I ask you to read my Century Of Dis
honor" am dying happier for the be-
lief that it is your hand that is destined to
strike the first steady blows towards lifting
this burden of infamy from our country
and righting the wrongs of the Indian
race. With respect and gratitude,
