of experience but no game. There are
quite Il number of camps of spoltslnen
on the Roseau yet. but no game of any
consequence has been, killed from the
lack of snow to track it. The country il
likely to be unsettled for many years.
There is SO much n.uskeg swamp In the
summer that it is impossible to teams.
The country is alternately open and
wooded. Large groves of poplar and
l'anarac abound and in some places the
!allen timber makes progress for even the
hunter on foot. very slow The ranches
Of Messrs. Trail & Booker, and Geroux
Il Anger, and others are very comfort
ably fixed up for shelter of man and
beast. They have put up large quanti-
ties of hay and the horses are doing well.
1t takes two large loads of hay to feed
the go Horses at BoOkcr's ranch square
meal. There are some scattered parties
of Indians carnped along the stream and
quite Il settlement at Roseau Lake.
Some persons from this city are figuring
to 90 out and do some trading with them
for furs The Indians laye a curious
custom. When they kill moose, they
cut out Its throat and long strip of tile
hide, tic in small piece of tobacco, or
nament it with ribbons and hang it up
high OH the limb of tree near by. MIR.
Fis!lvOrn, who returned with the party,
was fortunate enough to find very fine
and perfect specimen of an Indian stone

and 10 . reporter II that city lac SAID
that TascOtt had accOmpllces, men
whose acquaintance he had formed in
lhe state prison OF Frankfort, KY,
where he was confined Tor stealing

After his release he went 10 Chicago
TO I've, where he was found out by his

Another fact not generally known" +"
said Capt. PinkertOn to the reporter,
''l, that old man Smell received two
bullets-One a 3S-calber and the other
q 44-caloer-which shows that they
were fired from two revOlversa and from
right angles"
Yesterday afternoon reporter called
the famous agency in tins city, and
asked his opinion OF his brother 5
theory.
Il have known for some time that
such was my brother theory, and his
belief IN it grows stronger every day"
About twenty years ago Smell was the
purchasing agent for a railway COM
pany IN Chicago. lie lived in a small
house IN the outskirts Of the city, and
the report got abroad among the
thieves that I'M this house Smell always
kept a lage sum Of money. one night
five men made a rand on the house and
robbed 1t OF every thing OF value. For
tunately Smell was not at home, other
wise he would have been murdered
