Indians Being Enrolled

Spe~aeA DA5PobCh W VIC Auiig Eusie-
CHEYENNE AGENCY, July pas stated
in last dispatch from here to the EAGLE, an
enrolment of the Cheyennes and Arapahoes
is being made. A correct count of these
tribes had not been made for number of
years, as sufficient military force has never
been present to compel the Indians to come
in and be counted in body. The Arapa-
hoes are perfectly willing to be counted, but
the Cheyennes are very obstinate in this re-
spect, hence it is not yet known that an &C.
ourate count can be made of them. They
are however coming in slowly. Rev. S. S.
Haury and Rev. II. X. Voth, Mennonite
missionaries are counting the Arapahoes.
The military have agreed to give regular
to 100 Indians to act as scouts
at a salary of $50 per month. This is alone
to pacify the Indians. giving them source
Of revenue. Guns and ammunition have
been issued to the new scouts" This
looks like dsarming the Indians.
Three troops of the Ninth cavalry have
gone north from here to furnish body
guards and relays to Gen. Sheridan on his
return.

yETTY REPORTS.

WASHINGTON, July 22.-Major Howe, of
the United States corps Of engineers, has
submitted his report of the progress of work
on the Improvement of the South Pass of the
Mississippi river, tor the past fiscal year, to
General Newton, chief engineer. He says
one of the interesting facts connected with
the improvement is that the full depth and
width Of the channels required by law have
been maintained throughout the year by
Mr.. Eads, and no dredging of any kind has
been required on any part of the work since
February LIST, 1885. No work has been done
on the pass, or at the head of the jetties, du-
ring the year. The inner east jettiy has
been extended COS feet The main jetties,
where the concentrated rocks have been
placed, are still subsiding.

presidents action toward them, but were de-
sirious Of securing an expression from him
relative to the action of his
subor,iinates. President Cleveland replied
that he was in favor of the enforcement of
the law. The question of mans military
service entered into the consideration of
nearly every applicant for Office and was
given much weight This was especially
true in the appointments to postofices. 1t
must always be understood, the president
continued. that the man thus recommended
must be competent Commanders Burdett
and Kountz assured the president that un-
less man was competent there was no ex-
pectation that he would be appointed

where men had fine military rec
ords and were deserving, but they had not
received the training that would ft them for
positions These Of course conld not be

Moline Mutations.

Special to the Daily Eagle.
MOLINE, Kas., July 22.-The inhabitants
of this little burg are extremely lively in
their dispositions. The town is fast putting
on metropolitan airs for one that is not in
corporated.
Last evening the proprietor and porter of
the Commercial house engaged in a go-as-
you-please scrap, the landlady acting as
umpire.
ROUND FIRsT:-Both came to the scratch
smiling, when the proprietor struck straight
from the shoulder with both dukes at one
time and succeeded in beautifully scratching
the face of the porter, but the porter cross
countered with his right and sent his oppo-
nent to grass, and Immediately placed him
self astride the PROSTATE form of the landlord
and began to put in blow after blow where
they would do the most good. At this point
in the game the landlord most patheticaly
demonstrated against such high-handed pro-
ceedings, and wished to have the mill de-
clared a draw, upon which the umpire
rushed in and proceeded to draw the porter
from the PROSTATE form Of her lord and
liege. That ended the fight, and landlord
and porter now look at each other cross-eyed
from a distance.
This morning the rival hack lines engaged
in lively set-to at the depot few min
utes before the arrival of the 1913 passenger
train going west. Knives and revolvers
were aourished, but fortunately were not
used. One Of the parties in the melee re-
ceived bad cut on the head with a club
and another q severe cash over the eye.
Blood flowed down their faces and over
their clothing, which carried our mind back
to the scenes of twenty years ago. The
Hon. L. Scott, county attorney. is here and
the matter will be thoroughly investigated.
About II o'clock, when the freight ar
rived from the west, some tramps were put
off tie train, two of them were under the in
huence ofliquor. One of them insisted on try
ing to ride under the cars and SO dead beat
his way in that manner. The hands on the
train barely saved him from having his legs
cut off by the wheels. But not being salts
fed he tried it again and tried to secrete
himself on the iron rods running lengthwise
of the car. 1t took the combined efforts
of two men to break his grip and pull him
out, and he would not be content until the
train men paralized him with couple of
well directed blows between the eyes.
About the same time r. NJ. Campbell left
his coat lying for few minutes on bench
at the Southwestern house, when one of the
genus tramps appropriated it for his own
use. The telegraph was too quick for him,
and he was caught at Elk Falls and will be
returned here for trial.
Robert Martin, living about three miles
west of this place, some time during the
winter sold his farm for $500. five
thousand five hundred dollars). On the
evening af the Goth he skipped with all the
cash in his pocket, taking the four children
with him, and left Mrs. Martin in a desti-
tute condition. He went somewhere toward
the east but no one knows where he went.
