Judd did so, and Preston released
his prisoners. Judd returned on

had done. But meantime Captain
Kane had driven the Dagos OF the
Colon and tOwed her out into the
stream. When Capt Kane learned
what Judd had done he said the arms
should net be delivered to Preston.

The River improvements.

WASHINGTON, June .12-The senate com
mittee on commerce is at work five or six
hours every day on the river and harbor
bill, and hopes to complete it next week.
Senator Mcmillan said to-day:
He was under obligations not to disclose
what the committee had done, bqt the ap-
preparation for Improvements in the North
west would not be any less than was given
in the house bill, and in some cases they
might be increased. The policy Of the
committee is to appropriate money only
for works of rational importance, and the
provision made for them in the house bill
will be generally increased, while many OF
the smaller creeks and useless, ,harbors that
were given money in order to secure votes
in the house will be knocked out Of the
bill.

Over the Falls.

A couple of strangers arrived in the
city in boat Tuesday and reported that
thev came from Great Falls and ran every
fall and rapid intervening. They told
the story with all possible seriousness and
are evidently fellows we'll drilled in pre-
varication. who know that a lie we'll stuck
to is almost as good as the truth. They
left this morning for down the river and
will paralyze the natives of the lower
country with the account of their wonder
ful adventure (?) in bounding over the
several falls of the upper Missouri river.
The bows made a mistake in relating the
story here; they should have waited until
they got farther away from the falls and
reached more susceptible people than
those Of Fort Benton. When it is remem-
bered that the water makes leap Of %
feet over the Black Eagle falls, 40 feet
over the Rainbow and 94 feet over the
great falls, not to mention various other
falls and rapids, it becomes evident that
the story of running these falls in an ordi-
nary skiff is monstrous fabrication
