ture Is wholly unworthy its posi-

affor d to erect, at this time, such a
bridge as Is required. In this mat.
ter the state should give US liberal
aid. The bridge is on the old state
road, and this vicinity never yet
received farthing, with one excep-

largely to the maintenance of bridges
on this great thoroughfare over
which passes annually thousan DIS Of
teams on the way to the western and
northern portions of Minnesota.
If ever there was bridge which the
state should rebuild it is this one,
and our next member of the legis.

The Crow Indians Taking Up AllOtments
and Becoming Good Citizens.
WASHINGTON, Aug. 21.-Durng the last
two and half years remarkable move.
ment has been going on among the Crow
Indians i'm Montana, south of the Yellow
stone. So long as buffalo lasted their
primitive occupations and ambitions were
unmOdified, but in the spring of 1884
the location OF the agency was changed,
and they began to move on to the
arabic lands i'm the valleys of the
Little and Big Horn rivers to cultivate
small patches of land and put up rude
houses. A recent report from Agent
Williamson of the Indian Office states that
between 300 and $50 families are now To-
Gated on desirable lands, which they wish
to have allotted them that they may enjoy
the advantage of pos. eSsing genuine hOme-
steads. This allotment was promised them
10 their agreement of 1880, and the last
session of Congress appropriated 50, 900 for
carving out the provisions of the agree
ment Messrs John G. Walker of Wash
ington, and Il S. Saunders, of New York
city, have just been commissioned to visit
tho Crow reserve and make
the aliOtments and they will start
west for that purpose in few days. 1t is
expected that they will be able to place
every family of the tribe on individual al
lOtments, and that soon after their lands
may be patented them as further provided
in the agreement Heads of families are
10 receive One-quarter and others One-eighth
section of arabic land, and equal amour: of
grazing land in addition. The importance
Of this step to the Crow tribe can not be
Ovcrestimated. 1t places them in the front
rank of Indian tribes who will soon be ready
for citizenship.

GALVESTON, Tex, Aug. PA violent
easterly gale began yesterday morning with
the wind blowing at the rate of forty-five
mics an hour and increasing in velocity
almost every moment The southern and
southwestern portion of the city was soon
inundated by water and many families we're
driven out and compelled to seek safety
and shelter at the hotels down town. The
street railway along the beach was torn up
and the waters of the gulf were soon break.

Hotel. Much apprehension is felt for lam.
lilies residing at exposed points and for
shipping anchored in the ottcr roads. 10
ward evening the gale became hurri-
cane and the gulf was never seen in
such furious mood. Thousands
OF people who were obliged to leave
their hemes were unable to remove
their effects, white others were fortunate
enough to construct RATS on which to trans.
port the more valuable of their goods to
places of safety. All the portion OF the
city east of Thirteenth street and south OF
Avenue was under the waves at mid
night. Houses along the beach were swept
away bodily. There were many narrow
escapes of occupants. Some had to swim.
Probably $50 dwellings have been des-
trOyed and scores of others have been
greatly damaged. In the central part of
the city only the lower floors of the build
ings were invaded by water and the mer-
chants saved their goods from damage by
removing them to the upper floors, and thus
prevented great loss. There is great
deal OF suffering among the dis.
possessed refugees, bot every effort is
being made to aid them. The storm is a
fr;ghtful one and causes general alarm and
confusion. Among the buildings destroyed
are the Beach rink where the State Demo-
cratic convention was held and all the build
ings In the interstate drill grounds. The
total loss will reach 100000. Several re-
taiIers on Mechanic, Market and POst-office

named Gnck. from indianapolis, was an
inmate Of the family residence at Buenos

warning shot Cook, killing him Instantly.
Then he TUNED to shoot Mrs. Cook, when
the daughter, Thankful, who was up stairs,
rushed down and was shot through the
temple, dying instantly. With the butt of
mis- pistol Guck then inflicted ugly wounds
on Mrs. Cooks head which rendered her
