WASHINGTON, Special Telegram, Oct 81
The recent reports published all over the
country that Sitting Bull was getting ready
for the war path next spring have brought
some interesting letters to the war depart
ment. These letters are from iormcr army
officers. either retired, stationed at military
schools or for some other reason Just now
out of active service.
These officers extend to the war depart
ment. their services in case an expedition is
made UP to fight tho Sioux. They express
themselves as not only ready to serve their
country, but anxious to get one more crack
at old Sitting Bull. Some of them were
personal friends of Custer and would like.
while under orders from the commander
in-chief q chance to avenge his death at the
expense of some Sioux bucks. Sitting Bull
is especially unpopular with them. As
many as ten offers have been received at the
war department, some from men who have
done good deal OF Indian fighting. \
PIONEER Press man was shown one letter
to-day from now retired army officer, who
has been i'll two or three campaigns in the
Northwest, i'll which he says:
While would not deprive any young man IN
tue service o. an opportunity to win name
1t. would willingly give to the country, III an
endeavor to preserve the peach against Sitting
Bull md his tribe, the benefit Of experience
gained by long years OF service.
Other letters are in the same spirit. The
department., however, docs not expect it
will be necessary to call out volunteers.

"A tolerably tall desk stands against

to the bottom of the desk conical web
reaching nearly to the floor. About
ll:3o o'clock Monday forenoon it was
observed that the spider had ensnared
a young mouse by passing iilament,
of her web around its tail. Wher
first seen the mouse had its forefee,
on the lloor and could barely touch
the floor with its hind feet. The spider
was full OF business, running up and,
down the line and occasionally biting
the mouse's tail. making it struggle
desperately. Its efforts to escape were
all unavailing. as the slender tilament,
about its tail were too strong for it te
break. In Il short time it was seen
that the spider was slowly hoistiug its
victim into the air. by o'clock in
the afternoon the mouse could barely
touch the floor with its forefeet: by
dark the point of its nose was an inch
above the floor. AT 9 o'clock at night
the mouse was still alive. but made
no sign except when the spider de.
scendcl and bit its tail. At this time
it was an inch and half from the
floor Yesterday morning the mouse
was dead. and hung three inches from

The truth is thtt whom Il ship is plung-

The highest reliable measurements
arc from Al to AS iect-in itself very
remarkable height. Waves having
greater height than 30 feet are not
often encountered. The height OF
wind waves is governed by what Is
called the "fctch." That means their
distance from the place where their
formation begins. Thomas Stevenson.
author of the Lighthouse Illumlna-
tion,'' and father OF the well-known
writer OF our day, Robert Louis Steven

applicable when the fetc. is not less
than six sea miles: "The height oft
wave in fe.t is equal to l.5 multiplied
by the square root OF the fetch in
nautical miles, Let us suppose that
in IL gale OF wind the waves began to
form 400 miles from the ship you are
on. The square root Of 400 miles is 20,
which multiplied by l.5 gives 30 feet
as the height Of the waves around the
ship.
Now it is we'll known that in every
storm there are occasionally groups
OF three or four waves considerably
larger than the others. Captain
l-ccky is of the opinion that these ara
caused by the increased force Of the

STRIPPED OF THE TIMBER.
Ls'as.l.ns. a.a ., Railroad Take Pine
~ From 0overnment Land.

EAU CLAIRE, Special, Oct. 3l.-Since the
announcement by the department of public
lands OF the State of Wisconsin th certain
swamp and indemnity lands will be sold at
Madison Dec. 10, at the minimum price OF
S. per acre, much complaint is heard from
parties who have been spending their time
and money tramling through swamps and
forests i'll Northern Wisconsin and lying out
nights looking up land only to find that all
the indemnity lands have been stripped OF
people thus deraudcd.
At one time these railroad indemnity
lands were covered with some of the most
valuable pine timber in the country, some
ol it worth 81 per loo. 1t is charged tha,
the Milwaukee,, st. Paul, Minneapolis &
Omaha. making selections of land which
the company knew would not be approved.
men. who have promptly stripped off Their
valuable pine timber. Now the railroad
cheertully gives up these lands which never
belonged to it. and which, after bcin.
stripped OF timber are not worth paying
taxes on, the United States patents them to
the state, and the state kindly offers them
lOr sale ut IS per acre. 1t is claimed that he
simply trcspasseis, and ought to be forced
10 disgorsc. The lumbcrinen could then
come back upon the railroad.
The department of public lands has
been complained to- and the answer has
been made by tho department that these in-
dcmnity lands belonged to the United
States till within two years, and it was the
duty of the United States to protect the
lands prior to the issue OF patents to the
state; and that if details Of cases oitrcsIa,ss
are given, steps will he taken to punish
the wrong-tlocrs."
1t is not known whether or not the lum.
berincn would be protected by the "Dol,a

1887, by which purchasers in good faith of
lands from railroad companies were allowed
to perfect title by paying the regular <s,sIl
price at the nearest government land office,

this may be- the wrong is as great.
