As the suspension of the expulsion is not

The entertainment last night at Scheiffelin Hal, was given to a packe,. house and the large audience was kept in a continual state of activity in ap- plauding and laughing at ihe little ones who took part in the evenings entertainment. Most of the partici- pants had not seen their twelfth year and many of them were not half that age. The only wonder is how they were ever trained 10 go through with their parts without break and with such display of confidence. Much credit is due to those who have trained them in the home circle and to Mrs. Macneal, who devoted her time 10 drilling them for this particular event. The proceeds of the evenings diver sion, which will be neat sum, will be used to make some necessary changes in the Presbyterian parson- age.

Encouraging News.

Ex-Sheriff Slaughter has received a letter from Lang, who recently took a drive of cattle from the San Barnar
 dino ranch to Gila Bend and shipped them from that point. In his letter he states that when he reached Giia Bend he made Overtures to the com pany to take his stock in to Los An geles and that they accepted his 'erm }. He also states that his cattle reached there in good order. He lost fifty head in a stampede before reaching Gila Bend and left man behind to gather these, which had been done. The story that he lost many from over-driving and other natural causes has not a word of truth in it. Lang further states that butchers are pay ing six cents now against five cents sixty days ago, and that they will pay seven cents before many days. He was offered six cents for his drive for April delivery but refused, as he feels confident of getting seven before sixty days are over. This price is sharp rise, and will be received with much enthusiasm by Arizona cattlemen.

Lieut.. Peterson, 10th Infantry reached San Carlos, Arizona, yester. day, in charge of about forty San Car. los Apaches from Fort Union, New Mexico. These are portion of the Indians removed from the San Carlos reservation last March. They includ- ed friends of "Kid" and the other San Carlos renegades that killed Sheriff Reynolds and deputy. As all of these renegades except "Kid" have since been either killed or captured, there appeared to be no reason for keeping these Indians longer away from their reservation, and so Captain Bullis, acting Indian Agent, recommended their return. About twenty-five rela- lives and friends of "Kid" are still at Fort Union. where they will remain until "Kid" is either killed or cap tured.

Indians as Military Instructors.

In department orders Gen. Nelson A. Miles describes the results of the raiding maneuvers practiced by his troops in Arizona and New Mexico during the months of September, October and No- vember. Under the system which he introduced a mounted party was sent out. and after a prescribed time forces were dispatched in pursuit, while other troops from garrisons ahead had been notified to lie in wait along the generally indicated route in order to capture the raiders. This plan brought into play the highest quali- ties of practical soldiership both among pursuers and pursued, while the competi- tive character of the exercise gave it the interest of an athletic contest. Exact rules were prescribed as to what should constitute capture, and judges accom- panied all tie parties.
 Gen. Miles finds, in reviewing the suc- cessive operations, in which fresh party was 6ent out whenever capture was effected, that they will be of ''incalculable advantage in the future" The raiding parties sought, as hostile Indians would do, to mislead pursuers, while these latter exerted themselves by every device to cap ture the supposed hostiles. The result was to make inc troops familiar with large section Of country and to acquire skill in trailing. Gen. Miles desires his forces to fully learn the art Of war as practiced by the Indians.
