cheyenne Indians.

Special to the Globe.
FORT KEoGH, May 22.-The Cheyenne
Indians, for whom President Arthur created
a reservation on the Goth OF last November
and placed them on the same under the
care of an agent, giving them farming i'm
plements cattle. tools, ratiOns, etc., for
support until they were able to
take care of themselves, have
become dissatisfied and left. The
reservation is in the most fertile part of the
Rosebud valley, and contains sufficient land
to give about one square mile to each OF the
forty families. Eventually they have tired
of it, and have moved back to their old
haunts on Tongue river, near Hanging
Woman's creek. The Cheyennes are not
the least bit aggressive, but simply appear
to prefer their old homes to the new ones.
They are in the very heart of
the cattle country, in Eastern Montana,
and the cowboys are all around them, EN-
gagged in their spring round up of calves
and beeves, but no trouble is anticipated,
and the Cheyennes are in no condition to
fight. nor is it their intention to create a
disturbance. A report from their camp says
they will not go back to their new reserya-.
ton unless compelled to do SO by force.

Pennington Tribune: On Tuesday even
ing two boys, named Barnes and Higgin-
son, aged about IA years, whose parents re-
side in Minneapolis. who have been attend
ing Shattuck school at Faribault, walked
into Pennington. They had run away
from the school named and had walked all
the way to this village They alleged that
they had been cruelty treated at Shattuck,
one of them claiming that he had been
whipped recently until the blood ran from
wounds caused by the whip. They left
Shattuck on Monday, slept that night in
the woods and reached Pennington Tues
day evening. They were pursued by
negro from Faribault who had been sent
after them, but escaped by running through
a swamp which was too soft for their pur-
suer too cross. They purchased straw hats
of NJ. Noes, who took the lads home and
put them to bed. They desired to dispose
of their uniforms and get other clothes so
as to avoid detection. In the evening
telegram was received to have the boys ar
rested if they appeared here and returned
to Shattuck. Accordingly Deputy Sheriff
Johnson took them into custody and went
down with them on the morning train.
kilograms were also sent to the boys
parents in regard to the matter and were
followed by letters, SO that it is likely the
charge of cruel treatment will be thoroughly
investigated. After johnson had left with
the boys telegram was received from their
parents directing that they be brought home
