SEEMING Party Drowned.

seine, seventy-five feet long, to the bank
and stretched the netting nearly straight
out into the river. Stationed at inter-
vals near the outer end the eight men
with shoes, hats and coats of, swan
with the seine poles towards shore.
None of them were we'll acquainted with
the river at that point and they swan
into swift, cold current. Suddenly
one was seized with cramps A
panic followed. The seine was
dragged and Brame, Browne and
Strader became entangled with Meader
and Eaves and were swept under by the
current, while the other three succeeded
in reaching the bank. All the men
drowned were well-known citizens near
Murry belonging to old families in the
county. Brame moved there two years
ago from near Hopkinsville. A crowd
was gathered and a search for the
drowned men began. The seine when
hauled in still held the three who be-
came entangled in it. Eaves and
Meader have not been found.

Colorado Grasshoppers.

BRUSH, Oolo., July 19.-The whole
country south of here is completely in.
tested with young grasshoppers Of the
locust species, the same that laid waste
Kansas and Nebraska years ago. They
seem to be increasing daily, and are
now so numerous as to drive sheep and
cattle before them, being an inch deep
in some places. Alfalfa and unripe
grains are being completely ruined.
Should strong northeast wind arise
within the next few hours, sufficient to
change their course, it would turn
them into o less fertile and less densely
populated region, which would be
great relief and answer the tervent
prayers of the settlers. The advanced
ones have reached Beaver Greek, aud
millions are floating on its surface. The
stream will probably hold the larger
body of them in check short time until
age develops their wings, yet no small
obstacle seems to impede their progress.

WASHINGTON, July 2o.-Indian Agent
Shuler of the White Earth Agency, re.
ports to the commissioner of Indian
affairs that the Indians absolutely refuse
to accept anything but cash in payment
of the $15O,OO0 due them. Oommis.
sioner Morgan telegraphed Shuler that
he don't want the views of the Indians
but wants report with recommends
tions by Shuler himself, and the de-
partment will then settle the matter.
Assistant Secretary Bussey has re-
turned from Pine Ridge and handed his
report to Acting Secretary Chandler,
who declines to make public its con-
tents A gentleman who have had pri-
vate conversations with General Bussey
state that he favors numerous REFORM g
at the agency, among them being the
restoration of Agent Roger to duty
there. This would be good move, for
it would be the first step toward q
reconciliation between Senator Petit

There are now six full companies of
Indians enlisted in the regular army as
soldiers. Seven other companies will
soon be formed, three Of them now hav-
ing requisite number. The secretary
Of war is highly pleased at the prospect
of enlisting the Indians as soldiers. He
hopes to have twenty-five full COM
panies enlisted within six months. Re-
ports from the army officers state that

experienced in inducing Sioux Indians

MONTREAL, July 21.-Agents of the

ceived dispatches which show that the
wreck of the steamer Circe, ashore at
East Cape, Island Of Anticosta, is much

Captain Jennings with few of his men
determined to stand by the ship and
save her if possible. Details of the
drowning of the men so far as received
are meagre, but it is surmised that, as
the vessel was broadside up. with the
waves breaking over her, it was almost
impossible for the crew to escape drown

Terrible Treatment of an Insane Man.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oal., July 2l.-A
driveling idiot. confined in small out
house scarcely dozen feet square, un-
clothed and wallowing in filth, on the
very property that he used to own. was
the startling discovery made in Oakland
by Secretary Theobald of the Humane
Society. The man had once been pros.
porous, and owned a great deal of land,
but now, in his second childhood, he is
confined on his own property, of which
he has been defrauded, while he has
been cast aside by those who defrauded
him, and left to die in filth. Many
years ago the Red House, on the San
Pablo road, was a famous resort
for doubtful characters of old days.
1t was kept in those days by
two Frenchmen, Gustav Derosier aud
Peter DEVON, but as the country settled
up it became merely roadside tavern
instead of a resort for cattle thieves
Devion keeps the house, but about one
year ago Derosier disappeared. There
was no trace of his whereabouts until
his niece, Mrs Raves, appealed to Sec
retary Hunter, and search of the prem
ises disclosed that the unfortu nate man
had become insane and was Gagged like a
wild beast in an old outhouse with no
windows. A disgusting sight was dis
closed when the door was opened. In
one corner of the filthy place was a pile
of rags that served as bed. and on this
lay the gaunt form of an old man at least
70. His only clothing was an under
shirt, and his long gray beard was
matted with the filth that covered his
body.
A vacant stare was the only reception
he gave the visitors, and he was SO weak
that it was with difficulty that he was
able to draw himself to the door. He
caught glimpse of the brown foot hills
and the fields and tried to wander out
into the yard. but DEVON took his old
partner by the throat and threw him
back into the den and shut the door.
Devion's story is that two years ago
Derosier began to lose his mind, when a
neighboring rancher named Simpson
persuaded the old man to deed him the
Red House property in consideration
that Simpson took care of him for the
remainder Of his days Simpson then
leased the hotel to Devion and paid him
small amount to feed Derosier. 1t is
believed DEVON had hand in this plot
and that he and Simpson together have
absorbed the small estate of 1000
which old Derosier accumulated. The
matter will be Investigated at once.

Slick Swindlers.

New YORK, July ia year ago,
when E. E. Knight, wealthy produce
dealer in Boston, died, his wife moved
to Brooklyn. Then Horace E. Litoh-
field, stationer Of Chelsea. and three
young men named Robinson, Parker
and Douglas, opened an office at 16 Gen.
tral Street, Boston. They put out sign
which gave the impression that Mrs.
Knight was conducting the place.
Litchfeld got the mercantile agency to
rate the firm at $250,000. On the
strength of this showing Force & Moss
gave Parker, who represented that he
was about to be married, credit for $1,000
worth of jewelry. The house of Mrs. +.
E. Knight became security for the in
debtedness. From the Boston Furni-
ture 90. $1,000 worth of goods was
bought on the same terms, and a car
riage factory sold rig to them worth
81, $50. In all they bought about $685.
600 worth of goods. Everything but
the jewelry was sold at reduced rates by

ton. A description of them was sent all
over the country. While Detective ia
cobs, of the Central office, was in Simp-
sons pawnshop at 1875 Bowery the other
afternoon a young man entered and
asked for a loan of 300 on diamond
ring worth about 5000. An older man
was with the young one. Jacobs recog-
nized them as Litchfield and Robinson.
He also knew Robinson as Frank Stan
Icy. He questioned them and their an
swers were unsatisfactory. Robinson
slipped out, but Litohfeld was turned
over to policeman, who took him to
police headquarters. The detectives
later arrested Robinson on the Bowery.
Police Inspector Dugan, of Boston,
identified them. At the Jefferson Mar
ket Police Court they were held for
twenty days to await extradition. Par.
ker and Douglas have not been arrested
yet It is thoughtthat $40, 900 worth OF
the goods will be recovered.

Duluth steamer In Liverpool.

LONDON, July 21.-The New Ameri-
can steel steamer Charles Wetmore,
Captain Saunders, which sailed from
Duluth during the latter part of June,
arrived at Liverpool today. The Wet
cargo, which consists of $4,000 bushels
of grain, is the first grain cargo shipped
from lake port to Liverpool without
being rehandled. Her route was down
the lakes from Duluth, through the We'll
land canal. and thence down the st.
Lawrence River and across the Allan
tic. The success of the voyage is evi-
dence that the proposition to establish
direct ctcommunication between European
