1t is the only part OF the hoof that com

SuInbur Deposits Valuable.

Sulphur deposits are now valuable, and
will soon be in brisk demand. This is on
account OF the greatly increased call for
sulphuric acid. This demand is due to the

Considerable excitement exists regarding

able.
Wednesday affairs eliminated in direct
opposition to the policy of the county OH

one man made descent upon a settlement
aud succeeding at first in making a few col
l%ections. Later, however, the halfbreeds
assembled from all directions. being Joined
by others from the reservation. They
forced the sheriff to disgorge his collections.
The sheriff realizing that he was no match
for the increasing number OF savages,
CALLED UPON THE LOCAL MILITIA
for assistance. Mayor Mckee Immediately
placed his command under arms. In the
meantime a rumor states that a message

rob them" as they say. and claim they
will resist to the last minute. Sheriff.
Flynn has been notified that he will be
shot on sight if he again makes a similar
attempt. .
The alarming situation is the fact that
a large number OF the 1000 half breeds on
the reservation are preparing to take a

feared. The local militia company at st.
