Indians as Freighters.

Mr.. Thomas O'Hanlon, in charge Of 7.
G. Power & Bros store at the Belknap
agency, contracted with the Indians to as
sist in hauling their own agency supplies
(for the delivery Of which Messrs. Power
6 Bro. have the contract) from Rocky
Point, on the Missouri river, to the agen-
cy. Twenty-eight Indian teams of two
horses each hauled $4,000 pounds at one
trip. The Indians have been supplied with
two-horse wagons by the government, and
that they are learning the use Of them is
certainly to their credit. They are maxi

Robbed by Footpat1s.

y WINNIPEG. August 25,-A special from
Calgary to-day says: Yesterday at 12:45
the Edmonton stage was stopped by two
masked men on the road eighteen miles
from Calgary. There were in the stage
Pete Campbell, the driver; j. Burns, trav-
eler for Mr.. AshdoWn, of Winnipeg;
the Massey company's traveller, and a
Frenchman, name unknown. The mask
ed men wore stripes from the Union Jack
over their faces and carried a carbine and
two 45-calibre revolyers. They were ON
foot and jumped out Of the long grass ten
feet in front of the horses, who stopped.
They ordered the party to descend. They
then marched the prisoners into coulee,
where they went through their pockets.
Burns lost $40, but another $40 he had on
him was overlooked. Massey's traveller
lost $50. The Frenchman lost $I35, and
the stage driver $780, The robbers then
returned TO the stage, went through the
luggage, and opened the mail bags. A
small bag containing registered letters
was overlooked. The stage horses were
then taken out and driven away, and the
highwaymen disappeared. The footpads
were evidently new at the business and
nervous. They took none Of the passen-
gers watches. Last night twenty five
mounted police went out to search for
them, but up till now no trace has been
discovered. This is the second time with
i'll month that the Northwest mail has
been robbed.

of cars of his train on a notebook, and
while in this position was struck by

is thought he is not otherwise hurt.
