INDIAN
A Mormon Tramp Missionary Among
the Shosh0nes.

LANDER, Wyo., Aug. 3O.-The cattle
stealing by the Arrapahoes still goes on.
The chief, Sharp Nose. is as deeply en-
gagged in it as his young men. The In
dams say that the agent starves them and
they have to eat. This is about SO. The
government. will be compelled to feed
these Indians or see trouble.
Government Surveyor Jones, of Lara
ME, has finished his work on the lines Of the
Shoshone reservation The southern and
western boundaries are all right, and will
experience little change. The northwest
ern boundary needed no work, as it is the
natural line Of Owl creek. It was found
however, that there never has been any
eastern boundary at all, Surveyor Den
man, ten years ago, gave in a survey pur-
porting to be that of this line, and it was
placed on record by the department and
paid for. No line Of any kind was run,
however. This will be removed next
year.
Joshua Terry, a notorious Mormon
missionary Of the tramp species, is at work
among the Shoshone Indians. lie gath
ers his red prey" in the hills secretly,
and teaches, breaches and baptizes. This
man lived for a long term of years among
the Shoshones, a vile %pensioner on the
bounty of the tribe, and now he has adop-
ted ever a more nefarious mode of life.
Some seven years ago he embraced polyg-
amy and two more wives He was then
sent on a trip in the Zion interests among
the tribes. Since then he has been among
the most active and loud-mouthed of the
foul p~ropagators of the Mormon SANDER.
The presence of such apostles among the
tribes is fraught with danger. They take
every opportunity to SANDER the govern
ment and damn the Gentiles, and accord
ing to their baleful light are fire brands
that may kindle a conflagration.

-
Last Wednesday, at Fireholc basin, in
Yellowstone park, a son of Gen. o. o.
Howard, commander of the department
OF the Platte, shot himself through the
lower part Of the breast with design to
commit suicide. At last accounts his
chances for recovery were very slim, He
is a young man about 10 years of age,
who has been with Lieut.. Kingman in
the park throughout the season. The
cause of the desperate act was a sudden
and unrcciprocated attachment for a girl
who passed through Livingston as one of
a large eastbound party. Gen. Howard
is now in the park on a tour of inspec-
ton.
During about twenty-four hours after
the wound was administered it was be-
lieved to have been accidental. until young
Howard confessed the facts Thursday.
The ball passed through young Howard's
body below and to the right of the heart.
The party Of excursionists mentioned
above was composed OF rsatIves aud
friends of the Howard family, including
Miss Chase, of Omaha.
Whether young Howard had ever met
Miss Chase before or mott being both
affirmed and denied-he fell violently in
love with her. She is about % years of
age, quite pretty, and Of very engaging
manners He was with her party during
