reported last night that a letter had been
received in camp from a Catholic priest in
Poundmaker's reserve stating that the
Indian loss on Saturday was 1875. Two
seven Founders became disabled through
the breaking down of the trucks during
the engagement and caused their with
drawal.
The troops retired in perfect order well
covered by good generalship. The fight
lasted seven hours. The men had no
sleep the night before nor had they break
tasted before nine that night. Several
men were so overcome by this that they
fell asleep while lying in the skirmish
line when the enemy had heen silenced
for sometime.
Sentries at Fort Gu Appellee were again
fired upon last night, and the whole force
started after the rebels. Settlers from all
parts arrived here yesterday asking pro-

DIED OF LAUGHTER.

Chalcas died of laughter at the
thought of his having outlived the time
predicted for his death. A fellow in
rags told him that he would never
drink the wine of the grapes growing
in his vineyard and added: "lf my
words do not come true you can claim
me as your slave" When the wine was
made Chalcas held a feast and sent for
the fellow to come and see how his
predictions had failed When he ap-
peared the soothsayer laughed SO inn
moderately at the wouldbe prophet
that it killed him. Crassus died from
laughter on seeing an ass eat thistles.
Margutte, the giant in the Morgante
Maggiore died of laughter on seeing a
monkey pull on his boots. Zeuyis the
Grecian painter, died at the sight of
hag he had just depicted. A peculiar
death was that of Piacut, who dropped
dead in the act of paying a bill. There
are many men to-day, however, who
would probably die of surprise if they
found themselves doing the same
thing.

CUsTER's CONFEDERATE FRIEND.

The Seventh Cavalry were sent to guard
the engineers of the Northern Pacific
while they surveyed the route to the
Yellowstone The party of citizens
joined the command a few days out from
Fort Rice. Gen. Custer wrote me that
he was lying on the buffalo robe in his
tent, resting after the march, when he
heard a voice outside asking the senti-
mel (Which was Gen. Clusters tent"
The General called out: : "Halloo, old
years, but know it. Come in and well
come!" Gen. Rosser walked in, and
such reunion as was had! These two
had been classmates and warm friends
at West Point, and parted with sorrow
when Gen. Rosser went into the South
ern army. Afterward they had fought
each other in the Shenandoah Valley
time and time again. Both of them lay
on the robe for hours talking over the
campaign in Virginia In the varying
fortunes of war sometimes one had got
possession of the wagon train belonging
to the other. / knew of several occasions
when they had captured each others
headquarters wagon, with their private
luggage. If one drove the other back
in retreat, before he went into camp he
wrote note addressing the other as
Dear friend" and saying, You may
have made me take few steps this way
tod day, but LII be even with you to o.mor-
row. Please accept my good wishes and
this little gift" These notes and pres
ents Were left at the house of some
Southern woman as they retreated out
of the village. Once Gen. Custer took
all of his friends luggage and found in
it new uniform coat of Confederate
gray. He wrote humorous letter that
night thanking Gen. Rosser for setting
him up in so many new things, but
! audaciously asking him if he would
direct his tailor to make the coat tails of
his next uniform little shorter" as
there was difference in the height of
the two men. Gen. Custer captured
his herd of cattle at one time, but he
was so hotly pursued by Gen. Rosser
that he had dismounted, cut whip,
and drove them himself until they were
secured.

TOOL STEEL.

The old-fashioned method of testing
tool-steel is as good II practical method
as that of careful chemical analysis.
1t is simply the heating and drawing
under the hammer TO a sleuder point,
plunging while red hot in cold water,
and, when chilled, striking it with a
hammer across the edge of the anvil. If
the steel will harden, it will break,
under these conditions, without bending
back and forth, Steel that will not
harden under these conditions is not fit
to temper and will not retain cutting
edge. Steel that is SO high that it
cannot be heated red-hot and chilled in
water without flying may do for some
purposes, and retain n sufficiently rigid
edge by air-hardening If piece of
steel can be forged into q cold chisel, be
hardened tempered, and used, such
steel is good steel, and may be relied
upon for all ordinary shop-purposes
