Trouble Apprehended.

DENVER, COL, Oct. 7.-Information comes
from Wyoming to the effect that 300 or 400
Osalla'a Sioux warriors have suddenly made
their appearance on the Wind river reser-
walton, and that they are showing marked
friendship for the Arapahoes. The purpose
Of their visit has not been ascertained, but
The appearance of these fierce fighters
among the treacherous Arapahoes is dis
turbing the minds of the settlers in the
vicinity Of the reservation. Within the last
few weeks number of Arapahoes have
been detected in cattle killing, and meas
ures have been taken for their legal pun
ishment. Whether they contemplate mis-
chief and have called in the aid of The
Sioux is not known.

BRAINS AGAINST SPEED.-The rabbits
have increased in number Of late years,
owing to the destruction of their enemies,
the coyotes, which have been poisoned of
by the sheep men, and they are becoming a
nuisance. As the country becomes settled
they will gradually disappear; for although
no dog can catch fall Hhiskered fan-tailed
Jack rabbit, yet dogs soon learn the coyote s
trick, and one will chase after the rabbit,
while another, who has found out that the
long earned animal always comes back to
the place from which he started, lies in
wait, and as the painting AMI tired rabbit
nears home base, he poauce' upon him and
gathers him in.
One rancher has a shrewd old shepherd
dog which manages to capture rabbits with
out assistance When he first starts the
rabbit he rushes furiously after il for shor;
distance. The rabbit lights out for q ten
mile run, and finally finds his way home
rather tired. Next day the dog starts the
rabbit again and races him far enough to
warm him up, and he does his regular round
again, and comes home bunged up. The
next day the dog goes out aud when the
rabbit hobbies off he puts in his best licks
and soon captures his prey.-Orcgonian.

ONLY A" B ST GIRL."-Eight hundred invita-
tions have been issued for the wedding of Miss
Sophia Brown and Mr.. W. W. Sherman, which is
to take place at the house of the brides father in
Newport, on Wednesday. There are to be no
bridesmaids, only "best girl in which capacity
Miss Van Rensselaer, is to sficiate Mr.. Sherman
is not even to have best man. What the duties,
functions or privileges of "best girl" may BIO the
world has yet to discover: On Wednesday they
will be enlightened. Perhaps she is expected to
supersede the best man and assume his duties-to
hold the bridcgrooms hat during the ceremony,
hand the clergyman his fee, superintend the ar
rangements at the church, and look after the lug
gage and the provision of rice and old slippers
when the bridal pair depart If she is only to dis
charge the light and easy duties of first brides
maid, by holding the brides bouquetand lace hand
kerchief, why should the new and undignifed ap:
pellation of "best girl" be given to her? Since
women have taken to smoking, hunting, four in
hand and tandem driving, rifle shooting, poker
playing and stock specializing, man has little or
nothing left that is distinctively his own. Even
in name the ladies desire to approach as nearly as
possible to the masculine standard.-PhiIadolphia

The CHIEF of the Notwithstanding news
papers of Washington, the one which the
two unnatural Virginia Senators recommend
to the support of the people of their State
in an article 90 the condition of polit-
ical affairs in Virginia, says: The proof IS
overwhelming that the coorcd vote in the
South has been suppressed by violence and
fraud, the enc being used to supplement the
other, and both to destroy tho greatest Of
the legitimate results Of the war, free
thought, free speech, ard free labor, which
are the heritage of every citizen of the great
republic" But Governor Cameron, the re-
publican Governor Of Virginia, the earnest
supporter of Blaine ct the last Presidential
election, the man who, by his position, is
as vel! Informed OF the true state of politi.
cal affairs in Virginia at that election as any
other man in the State can be, says: Il
should say that the election II Virginia last
fell was as rule freely and fairly conduct

to is the most credible, that of the republi'
can Governor Of the State, or that of men
living outside tho borders of Virginia and

showing, to pay any sum of money

WHERE OUR SODA COMES FRoM.-Alcng
the Peruvian coast, stretching for hun,
dreds of miles, are the famous beds of nj
trate of soda which purified is satpctrc.
These deposits, more profitable than the
silver or guano, were discovered accid emily
by a vagrant Englishman named George
Smith, but were not operated TO any extent
until recent years. Now, nitrate having
been found valuable component Ola hun
dred chemical forms, is in demand the
world over, and millions of dollars worth
is shipped from the ports along the coast
annually. Before its value was fairly
known, q number of tar-sighted men
located claims" after the fashion in
vogue in mining camps everywhere, and
then the government stepped in and for
bade any further presumption. But the
original locations cover enough of the
deposit to supply the market for century
or two, and TO keep up prices they have
formed a pool, monopoly combined, under
which they charge from two to three dollars
per cwt. for what costs them about fifteen
cents There is apparently no limit to the
stuff, the bed stretching up and down TIE
coast for 800 or 400 miles.
